Sorry, I don't normally do author notes but just to let you know that the whole day is going to take loads of chapters. I'll probably skip the evening but by the time she goes through everything before, during and after the performance with groups including EXO, BTS, NCT and SM Rookies to name the ones that will star, I don't really wan to skip much as there's so many paths which can lead off of this if that's ok. You can skip this though if you want but just to say EXO, BTS, NCT AND MORE!!!!!! But it is a crap chapter so I apologise.

Thanks,

We make it there with ten minutes to spare and I take Aria to reception and log her in as my guest for the day before heading towards my classroom where I meet Eun-Ji everyday.

On the way there, we receive a few looks from some of the students, particularly those who are not of mixed ancestry. I guess it's unusual for a completely non-Korean to be in a place like this, not trying to be racist but it's true. Aria tales it in her stride however, flashing everyone her million dollar smile. Back home, this had all the boys coming her way and it seems to be working similarly over here. Ah, what to do with her.

Eventually we reach the classroom only to find a note from Eun-Ji telling us that the staff meeting got moved forward by fifteen minutes and to bring Aria with me. We rush down the halls and were luckily only five minutes late. I enter and apologise and then introduce aria as my plus one for the day. I'm glad that we're not the last ones to arrive as well as to see that I'm not the only person to bring someone with me. Some of the younger male staff have brought their girlfriends with them whilst have brought younger family members, especially daughters.

A few more people enter shortly after us, introduce their guests and we run through the he plan for today. All lessons in the morning are still happening as well as some in the afternoon depending on what time the show is. Only six members of staff are needed to help since most of it was set up the day before, it's just doing the actual organisation. Some of the guests can help so Aria and I immediately put our hands up for idol coordinator. It means we get to be up close and personal with the idols and help them with things like where to go, not that they couldn't ask they band mates as at least one from every group performing came here.

During the meeting, my phones buzzed several times from texts but I don't answer. I have no choice however when it starts to ring so I discreetly take it out if my pocket and check the caller ID. Suho.

"Excuse me sir, do you mind if I take this? It's important." I ask the head teacher.
"Depends, who is it?"
"Kim Jun Myeon sir, better known as Suho from EXO." I explain.
"Very well, I suppose he is quite important, especially as he is attending today." He says, slight,y shocked from the name drop.
"Thank you" I say, bowing to him.

On my way out, i catch the eye of Eun-Ji who mouths at me "you are explaining this later"
"Ok" I mouth back before entering into the corridor.

"Hey Myeon."
"Why not the full name or stage one?"
"Because I'm currently standing in a school corridor full of teenage girls. Do you really want me to get mobbed?"
"Fair enough"
"Why are you phoning all of a sudden? I haven't heard much from you in weeks." Yes, that's right, Suho and I have chatted. When we exchanged numbers we texted eachother about what we were up to and stuff but that's slowly died down over the last couple of weeks.
"Ah, sorry about that but we've been really busy practicing for the upcoming comeback."
"I understand. Doesn't answer my first question though."
" oh yeah, well, sehun and Kai being the two brilliant maknaes a have forgotten how to get to the stage door despite having gone there for however many years." Suho rants. I can hear sniggering in the background, no doubt Kai and Sehun. "I don't suppose that I could ask you to come and meet us when we get there. We'll be there in about fifteen minutes as we're just leaving."
"No hassle. Text me when you get here. My plus one and I are technically idol coordinators today meaning we're meant to tell you the way and help you out, guess that's already coming in useful" I laugh "text me when your five minuets away. Bye" I say and hang up.
