False Impressions I Book 1: Lee Heeseung

Special Chapter: Introduction for Book 2

"Jungwon's with a girl?!" Heeseung cannot believe what he just saw, far more from what Aerin had said.

"I can't be wrong. Relax, babe. They're totally covered. Won is smart, he knows what to do."

"You can't be complacent. The more you're covered, the more they'll think you're a famous person."

Aerin pulled a sigh. Seeing Heeseung looked so worried is startling enough. She can totally understand the fear, they been there, done that.

"Don't go out. I'll lead Won to the car." she adjusted her coat to go out of the vehicle.

"Babe--" Heeseung stopped her before she hops out. "I'm sorry. This is suppose to be our night but I dragged you into another crazy mess."

Aerin chuckled, laugh's sends relief to his rocking system. "Well, I have no escape from this now. Whether you like it or not, I am now your partner in crime." 

Heeseung softly laughed. Looking at Aerin take her way inside the store, he was packed with unanswered questions he's so scared to know the answer. What's next? Is it more scandalous than what he had gone through? Being in that place spells trouble and he knows it.

But Jungwon? God, Yang Jungwon. The leader cat. He was called a "cat" because he's so cat coded. He looks soft but can surprisingly scratch. A great leader despite being the second youngest member of the group. He likes everything to put into place. And Heeseung never thought he would go out of place.

Heeseung saw Aerin talked to Jungwon, casually, safe enough to get an impression of being strangers. His girl is turning out to be a pro and Heeseung smiled and couldn't be more proud.

But another girl caught his sight. She was on the far side of the shop, silent but listening. Same as Aerin, she's acting like a total stranger too but the body language conveys a deeper relationship with the Enhypen's leader.

Heeseung straightened up after getting a sight of Jungwon approaching the vehicle. Aerin stayed, still vigilant, while attempting to talk to the girl.

"Hyung--" Jungwon uttered the moment he hopped in the car.

"Jesus, Won!" he fretted. "What is this all about?"

"I think I'm in trouble." he replied, not blinking an eye.

Heeseung was in put in a deepest fright seeing the fear in Jungwon's eyes. But then, Heeseung never let the nervousness take the hand. What Won is experiencing is light enough than what he had gone through. Silently, he wished that's going to be it.

"I can see you're dating too." Heeseung maintained the calmness.

"We're not a couple." Jungwon was fast to dissent.

"Then, what's the problem?"

"We have met, a couple of times actually. We went out, secretly, had the best days of our lives so far. We're happy being together but no strings attached. Not yet. We're both scared to jump to a deeper level. She's just 19."

Heeseung listened and couldn't be more understanding. He knows the feeling and he understood why Jungwon reached for him and not the others.

"She called me this morning, bringing a not a very good news. She's flying back to Poland but had a problem at hand. When we we're put on pause because of your hiatus, we met, went to a bar, had a good time--" Jungwon stopped and drew a breath. "Something happened and we don't know how did it happened. We found ourselves sleeping in the same bed the next morning."

"You make out?" Heeseung couldn't believe at his own question.

Yang Jungwon got laid when he and Aerin are having a hard time doing it in the smallest chance.

"I don't know. We were totally blank."

"So, what seems to be the problem? If you want to take your relationship to the next level then just ask her."

"It's not about that, Hyung." Jungwon shakes his head rapidly. "Her period's late."

"Jesus Christ!" Heeseung couldn't stop the swearing.

"I--" the Enhypen's leader proceeds to cover his face for a mere five seconds to let the fuss out, pulled the deepest sigh before facing him with a disheveled face. 

"I-I think I got her pregnant."

Heeseung's world suddenly spin around making him quail in indestructible fear. He stared at Jungwon, stunned to even move a muscle, then proceeds to look at Aerin from afar. The girl she's talking to is now having a breakdown and his poor girlfriend was put into a situation where she was forced to console a stranger. 

"Hyung--" Jungwon let out a whine, like a cat trapped in a hutch wanting a clutch.

"Who's that girl?" he finally asked despite being at loss for words.

"Park Hyejin--"

Heeseung faced him with a more staggered stare. The name sounds familiar and his fear doubled the moment Jungwon disclosed the girl's true identity.

"Hyejin is--" he stopped and gulped his worries down. "She is Park Sunghoon Hyung's cousin."

He never thought he'd hear such an agonizing statement. What's next to face is strong enough to tear them apart. The leader cat, Yang Jungwon, is definitely in trouble.
