~Miànjù's POV~

We walked in and I immediately tugged onto Jaesung.

"Let's go." I said, turning around. Unfortunately Michael was standing behind me so he stopped me from leaving.

"We just got here and this is your birthday party." Michael said. "We're not going anywhere."

I groaned. "I thought I got to do what I wanted on my birthday."

"People want to celebrate you, hyung." Em said with a bright smile.

I looked around in disgust when people suddenly ran up to tell me happy birthday. I put on a fake smile and thanked them, holding onto Jaesung's shirt with my fingertips, my way of telling him not to leave me. Luckily, he never tried to. With all the attention on me it started to make me feel anxious and my grip on Jaesung got tighter and tighter, my whole hand engulfing his bicep as my squeeze intensified.

"Come on hyung." Jaesung said to me. "I'm hungry."

Jaesung dragged me away from the crowd and I felt immediate relief.

"Thank you so much for getting me out of there." I said.

"Of course." He said, stopping at a place on the wall.

I looked around to see there was no food table by us.

"I thought you were hungry." I said.

He shook his head. "I just did that to get you out of there. I could tell how anxious you were getting.

I couldn't help but smile, my cheeks slightly flaring up. I loved when he cared about how I was feeling.

"Thank you." I muttered.

Jaesung just nodded and leaned against the wall. I stood beside him, leaning against the wall as well, both of us wallflowers watching everyone. Eventually I heard a sigh come from Jaesung and his lips started to move.

"Why did we join Royal Colors?" He asked. "A large group like this isn't for us."

I let out a soft sigh. "Because we weren't ready to give up our dream. Besides, we were already in a large group. We were the third largest group after RC and D.S.H."

Jaesung let out a chuckle. It made me smile to hear his laugh.

"You're right." Jaesung said. "How did we get put into such a group?"

"I'm not really sure." I shook my head.

Jaesung laughed again, causing me to smile once more.

"I'm glad it happened though." Jaesung said. "Because I got to meet my perfect match."

Jaesung looked at me with a smile and I smiled back. I knew he was talking about me.

"Me too." I said.

That's when somebody else came up to wish me a happy birthday. This continued for the next two and a half hours before Jaesung and I left to do something I actually wanted to do.

While Royal Colors may not have been my ideal choice of group, I'm glad Jaesung came with me. We may not have known each other forever but I feel like he knows everything about me. He truly is my perfect match and it made my day to know I was his.
