Valentine's date ~ Special Chapter

"Just because everything is going smoothly for us right now, Doby, doesn't mean we won't face difficulties in the future. I know that our relationship won't always be filled with happiness, and there will be challenges along the way. But what truly matters is that we stay by each other's side, holding on no matter what happens. As long as we continue to support, understand, and love each other through every obstacle, we can overcome anything together."

Jace's words brought tears to Doby's eyes, especially after the major conflict they faced earlier this year. He realized that if he looked back at how they nearly broke up over a minor misunderstanding, he might not have had Jace by his side on this special day. He knew he played a role in the struggles they went through, but despite everything, he was deeply grateful that Jace was willing to fight for their love.

Their relationship had faced many ups and downs, but after agreeing to be boyfriends again following Doby's birthday, they made a promise to work on understanding each other better. They learned that when one of them was upset, the other needed to stay calm, and when one was busy, the other had to be more patient. Over the past three months, they adjusted to each other's differences and strengthened their bond, even as they continued to keep their relationship a secret. However, like any other couple, unexpected challenges still tested their love.

"Doby... can you join the trip next week? The gang is planning to go to Khao Yai. Fifth, Kairo, and I have been wanting to visit ever since the last filming"

Jace asked, hoping Doby could come along. Fifth and Kairo were the other lead couple in their upcoming series, and they had been working together closely. Doby really wanted to go on the trip with them, but he had a fan concert in Japan. The timing was difficult because it would likely clash with their free days.

"Jace, we have to leave two days before the fan concert, and I also need time for practice... I think it will be hard for me to join the trip,"

Doby explained. Jace felt a little disappointed, but he understood that Doby had to prioritize his fan concert in Japan. He didn't want to pressure him into going, especially since it was clear that the schedule wouldn't work out.

"Don't worry, I understand,"

Jace said smiling.

"Maybe we can plan the Khao Yai trip for another time when you're available. For next week, Maybe we could at least go somewhere closer, like a beach."

Feeling touched by Jace's understanding, Doby stepped forward and hugged him. He knew how much Jace wanted to travel together outside of work, but their busy schedules always made it difficult. Whenever one of them was free, the other had prior commitments, and it seemed like they could never match their free time.

While Dobyson was busy with his trip to Japan, Jace decided to hang out with Fifth and Kairo. Even though they were apart, Jace still made sure to support Doby from afar. He secretly sent him messages of encouragement, letting him know that he was cheering him on.

Meanwhile, Dobyson received an update about their planned beach trip. Even though he couldn't be with Jace at the moment, knowing that Jace was thinking about him and making plans for when they could finally spend time together made him feel happy and reassured.

This year, Jace slowly began to change, and fans in the fandom quickly noticed him. He seemed lonelier than before and often posted cryptic messages on social media. Many fans speculated that something was wrong between him and Doby. They assumed the two were struggling with their partnership but were forcing themselves to work together for the sake of their supporters.
