It's An Unexpected Love

Your face looks familiar

Sitting at a couch and scanning through magazines inside the practice room, Nichkhun is trying to find a time to rest after a months of preparing for 2pm's comeback. It could be better if JYP will give them a few days to rest before promoting their new album. Gasping in exasperation, Nichkhun started to close his eyes and rest his head on the couch when someone barged inside the practice room. "Oh you're just here, we've been looking for you." It was Taecyeon. "You've been looking for me?" "Yup, let's have our lunch together with the members." Nichkhun stood up with heavy feet on the ground, he thought that it was his chance to recharge his body but anyway his stomach's been growling the whole time he was in the practice room. Roaming down the hallway, they heard JYP's voice inside his office talking kindly to someone, and laughing, seems like he's acting friendly. The boys looked at each other in disbelief that they started looking at the slightly opened door of JYP's office. On his couch there is a girl sitting in front of JYP and seems like they are signing some contracts, after they shook their hands and stood up. The naughty boys who are trying to eavesdrop their conversation suddenly rushed their feet acting like they just got in there. The door finally opened up and the girl stared at them; "Oh! Jane-ssi..." Wooyoung's sudden shout that can be heard between the hallway and even JYP's office, quickly the atmosphere was foiled when the Got7 made their way to the hallway too. They hugged their sunbaes and greet each other. Park Jin Young came out with a smile looking at his kids proudly; "Going out for lunch?" He interfered the scenario. "Ah, yes we're about to." 2pm replied. "We're leaving for our photoshoot." Got7 added as they leave their hyungs and boss. "Anyway, since you finally bumped into this lady here, I would like you to meet her. Janielle-ssi, this is 2pm" As Jin Young introduced the members one by one. She bowed each of them and the boys did the same. "It's good to see you around our building, but what's the matter?" Junho asked attempting to get near to her. "You both seem close?" Jin Young asked. "Ah, we met each other before at the music bank." Jane replied. "Well back to what I was about to say. If you saw her already in Music Bank I think you already know what is she doing there." "I don't know it though...?" Taecyeon barged in looking like he has no idea. "She's the new main PD in Music Bank." Wooyoung whispered to him. "She's also a rising photographer." Jin Young tapped Jane's shoulders. "And she'll be the one who will take care of your photoshoot for the upcoming album." The boys nodded in affirmation. "You know what? Why don't you guys have a lunch with her? You can use the company card. So you can get along with her before your photoshoot." The boys happily agreed thinking they don't have to use their own money, thanks to Jane who suddenly came out from his room.

They all went out together with her in an awkward silence. Chansung's pushing Wooyoung to have the urge to talk to her but he has no confidence. Suddenly Junho came towards her; "Hi." With his hand who waved a little; "Hi." Janielle replied. Junho place his hand on his nape and tries to think of what he must say. "Where are you from?" "Apgu-jeong." "I mean your homeland?" "Philippines." "Ah, you're a Filipina." Jane nodded and smiled a bit. "Apgu-jeong? Hey it's our place too!" Jun.K ran towards the two; "What building are you?" "Building 3." "Ah the new one" Taecyeon exclaimed at the back nodding his head. "We're from Building 2, the penthouse." Jun.K smiled brightly; "Nice to meet you neighbor!" He offered his hand and Jane gave hers too. They lastly found their way to a chinese restaurant and everyone sat down as Wooyoung tried to grab a chair and offered it to Jane; "Ya we should all be nice since she's our photographer and our neighbor as well." Wooyoung scolding his brothers, everyone smiled. "Thank you." Jane answered. She was sitting between Wooyoung and Junho, on his right side was Taecyeon. Nichkhun, Jun.K and Chansung were sitting in front of them face to face. Everyone's looking at the menu; "I think sashimi would be very good right now." Taecyeon stated. "Do you like sashimi Janielle-ssi?" He asked. "Anything. I'm not picky." "Aish don't be like that, we should be your tour guide temporarily." "I guess if you are then you guys should be the one to decide what to eat." Nichkhun choked while drinking his glass of water and everyone laugh, Taecyeon scratched his head; "Ah yeh yeh." They started to order the food they like and everyone waited in excitement. "Today's been a long day for us." Jun.K as he put his arm around Nichkhun's chair who's been staring in wonder at Janielle's face. Jane noticed it and she couldn't lift her head due to the shyness she feels. "Ah right!!!! You were featured in Time Magazine!" Nichkhun pointed out Jane in his relief that he finally recognize her. "Ah?" Jane answered and everyone stared at Nichkhun. "You were in Time Magazine." Nichkhun smiled; "Ah..." Jane crooked a smile; "Yeah I was featured but I only have a small portion in the magazine though." "Yeah I know but I just read it earlier inside the practice room. No wonder your face looks familiar." Nichkhun curled up his lips and smiled as his eyes became smaller from smiling. Everyone's feeling left out from what this two were talking, they sat in silence while Nichkhun continued their conversation. "So you studied in Australia before you came here?" "Yup." "How long have you been staying there?" "Four years." Nichkhun nodded. "All by yourself? No relatives there?" "I have but they were in Canberra and I was in Sydney." "That's a bit hard though." Jane ducked her head. The members staring at her in awkwardness thinking that she's an independent girl and now she's in Korea trying to make a living as well. "Khun hyung relates with you so much." Chansung broke the silence that covers their surrounding. "He's also here trying to make a living, a place where he doesn't have a family." He added. "I know." Jane answered. "Eh...????" The members were shocked when they heard her answer.

They were about to ask more questions about her when someone entered their room with a cart full of delicious foods to serve them. Their attention suddenly lost in front of these yummy treats and started digging out everything they could. Laughing and non-stop talking filled the place whilst Jane was quietly sitting trying to finish the food on her plate forcing herself to act formal as she feels nervous in front of these handsome men knowing she used to be a die hard fan of them. "I thought I'll cry in joy when I see these boys in person. I guess fangirling spirit totally left me. Good job Jane." While spacing out, her phone broke her silence and everyone stopped all the noises. "Excuse me." She exclaimed and bow to the members. "Yes raf?" "Where are you now?" "Having a dinner." "Eh?! With who?" "2pm." "What?!?! (67hhuffydjfeisiucjeisi(6hhd!!! You're kidding me." Janielle trying to hold back her annoyance to her best friend. "No." "Anyway, should I pick you up now?" Janielle silenced and stared at the boys who were staring back at her. "Yes please." She answered Raffy; "Chinese restaurant near JYP building." She put down her phone and curved a forced smile in front of the members. "Who's that? Your boyfriend?" Taecyeon jokingly asked. "No he's my best friend he came here together with me. We're both working in Music Bank." The boys were staring at her with their eyes not believing what she said. "He's a gay." She added. "Aaahhh..." The boys finally believed her. "By the way, is he going to pick you up?" Jun.K as he tried to dig in the last food on his plate. Jane nodded. "Aish tell him we're going to drop you off instead." Junho insisting and the boys are murmuring in agreement. "Okay." She surrendered. "Girl you can take a rest, the members insisted to drop me off." She texted Raffy. "Flirting game on!!" Raffy replied. "Shut up." Jane answered back and kept her phone after sending it.

A dead air filled the atmosphere again as soon as they finished all the food in the table. "Goodness I am so full I can't breathe." Wooyoung exclaimed. "Let's go." Nichkhun stood up so is everyone and they went back to JYP Building to catch their van. Wooyoung, Jun.K and Chansung squeezed theirselves at the backseat so Jane could sit in a comfortable one, the rest, Nichkhun, Junho and Taecyeon had their proper seats. Jun.K sacrificed his for Janielle and sat between Wooyoung and Chansung. She sat beside Nichkhun and she didn't even notice it. The idols fell asleep as they find their way home. She slowly looked at her left side where Nichkhun is and he's sleeping soundly. For a few seconds of staring at him she told herself; "Damn this guy is an angel." Suddenly Nichkhun opened up his left eye and stared a glimpse of Jane, she tried to keep her straight face and looked away, she can see his reflection at the window as he smiles and went back to sleep. Jane sighed in relief. Their manager finally parked the van in front of the Building 3. Junho woke up and said his bye to Janielle while the rest of the members were still asleep. Heading back to her apartment, she saw Raffy standing in front door with a teasing smile on his face; "What?" Janielle raised her left eyebrow. "How was it? Oh my god just minutes ago you were with those sexy idols omg what happened?! How is your feeling riding on their van for the first time?!?!" Raffy followed Jane who's going to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water, after finishing her drink she finally stared at Raffy waiting in excitement for her story. "It's nerve-wracking." "Eh?!?!" Raffy in disbelief trying to follow Jane's footsteps towards the living room. Jane sat in the couch and rest her head as she closed her eyes. "What do you mean nerve-wracking?! Don't you dare tell me you kept a straight face the whole time and you didn't act friendly?!" "I guess that's what I did." Raffy kicked Janielle's leg and crossed his legs; "Aww!!!" "Why don't you show your true self in front of those guys! Girl you're easy to hang out with especially boys have a lightweight heart to you because you're one of the boys!!!" "You're saying I'm a lesbian?!" "No! My point is that you're masculine! A girl who hates cutie stuffs and pretty clothes and is strong and independent. I actually don't think someone like you exist but here you are." "I'll take that as a compliment." "It really is though?" "You sound absurd." Janielle replied as she put her legs at Raffy's lap. "Give me a massage, I am so tired." Raffy pushed her legs and left her in the living room.
