Part 33/S2

"Ni-Ki!! What was that for??" You whisper yelled at him because he had just basically revealed your relationship with him to the paparazzi.
"We don't need to hide this anymore, it has been revealed already" He spoke as you walked side by side with him in the empty hallways, towards the direction of the elevator.
"But Ni-Ki!! We still hadn't gotten the permission from our CEO nor from our leaders!!" You said as you pressed the button to the elevator making it open its doors.
"Well, it's too late for any permission Yn" He said pressing the button for the 7th floor.

"You are right..." You sighed hearing his words, it really were too late for any permission to be asked but still it wasn't the greatest idea to reveal the relationship to the media, especially when you've been already forcefully arranged into a marriage with somebody else for the sake of your parent's business.

The doors to the elevator again opened at the 7th floor as you exited the elevator along with Ni-Ki.

Whispers were to be heard everywhere in the building and everyone's gaze was on you two.
It felt uncomfortable and comfortable both at the same time, were those whispers for the good or for the bad?
"Was it even a good idea to reveal our relationship, Ni-Ki..?" You asked, your voice unsure.
"Hm it was, besides we didn't reveal it first. The staffs who were with us in the SUV revealed it before we did ourselves" He replied to your question as you followed him towards the direction of the practice rooms.

While you were walking, somebody else was walking in the hallways with their phone in their hands and just as they were about to walk past you, they suddenly bumped their shoulders against yours making you loose your balance.
Luckily, before you could fall onto the floor, Ni-Ki caught you by the waist, holding you tightly.
"What the hell..." Ni-ki cursed under his breath as he saw the girl walk away without even glancing back.
"It's okay, maybe they were in a hurry!" You said standing back up from Ni-Ki's embrace.
"Doesn't seem like it" He replied, his voice stern.
"Stop overthinking, I am not injured or anything so it's okay" You pinched his nose lightly.
"Fine~" He smiled at you pinching his nose.

"Anyways, see you later m'lady" He winked at you as he opened the door to his practice room, where his team members were already present.
"See you!" You replied, your voice filled with happiness as he went in his practice room while you went to yours which was next to his.

"OH.! FINALLY YOU ARE HEREEEEE" Yura suddenly stood up from the floor and ran toward you before giving you another tight hug.
"Since when did you start giving me such tight hugs Yura!!" You chuckled at her new actions towards you.
"Hm, since yesterday I guess?" She replied.
"Okay anyways everyone, we have to start on our new album!" You heard your leader, Ha-Eun speak from the other end of the practice room as she was walking towards you two.
"ANOTHER ALBUM ALREADY??" You heard Jia scream from behind you which made you bit scared.
"Gosh!! You scared meee" You mumbled holding your fast beating heart as you let go of yura's hug.
"Oh sorry, I didn't mean to scare you!!" Jia apologised.
"Ah it's okay!! Anyways Eunnie, what will the concept of the new album be??" You asked.

"We're going with a timeless theme—memories and moments" Ha-Eun announced.
"Hm that's a quite interesting concept" Yura said as everyone else nodded to her statement.
