Moving In & Moving On [Kim Jong In// Park Ji Min]

17

"Are you fucking serious, are we really gonna do this?" I gripped onto his hands tightly as we stood outside the door of the CEO's office

He smiled at me.

"It's gonna be alright,"

He knocked on the door.

"Come in," A voice boomed.

"Sajangnim, we have something to tell you," Jongin spoke up, going straight to the point.

"You're dating?" The CEO replied.

Both Jongin oppa and I looked at each other, confused.

The CEO eyed our interlocked hands and continued, "I heard about the rumors,"

We both slowly nodded.

"So you want me to release the news?" He asked.

We nodded our heads again.

He called his secretary in.

"Woosung, release an article to confirm that Jaemin and Jongin are dating right now, and don't leave out the part that she's living with exo,"

"Yes, sir," The secretary replied and left quickly.

"You may go now, be careful of the paparazzi. I'll deal with you guys another time since i'm busy now," He said with a strict expression.

"Yes sir, thank you," We said in unision and exited the office.

"Well that was easy, I thought he would scold us," He sighed as I hummed in agreement.
---------------------------------------------
When we reached back to the dorm, everyone was pacing to and fro nervously. When they saw us, the first thing was to rush to us and ask what had happened.

"How did it go? Did he ask you guys to break up? You can't!" Baekhyun asked.

"He was calm and he accepted it. And told his secretary to release the news," I replied.

"That's all?" The responded.

I nodded my head.

"Guys, look!" Suho oppa pointed outside the window.

I saw many reporters and paparazzi but what touched me the most was fans carrying posters of encouragement.

"Exo's Visual Couple"
"Jae In"
"We acknowledge you Jaemin"
"You are good enough for our oppa"
"Take good care of Kai"

"See I told you they would accept you!" He wrapped his arms around my waist, causing me to smile.

"Whoa, they're quick. The news was just released an hour ago. But they are out there in the cold, I feel bad for them. Can I go get some heat packs for them?" I frowned.

"Are they your fans or mine?" He smirked as I rolled my eyes.

As the elevator door opened, I could hear high-pitched screams which caused me to stop in my tracks. Jongin oppa patted my back, encouraging me to go forward. As most of the fans were in front of the barrier the security made to keep things in place, it was easy to hand them the heat packs.

"Here you go, please go home soon, it's cold out here," I smiled and handed out the heat packs.

"Unnie you're so pretty!"
"Unnie you and oppa look good together,"
"Please don't get affected by what the sasaengs say because there are only very little of them but there are many Exo-Ls!"
"You guys look really good together, blessing my eyes,"
"You son of a bitch!"
"Get off Jongin oppa!"

Jongin oppa and I both looked at each other and smiled at the positive responses, and ignored the bad ones, causing the nicer fans to squeal in excitement at the sight of our contact.

"Thank you for the support, please go home soon, it's really cold out here," I smiled warmly and waved goodbye to them before going back to the dorm with Jongin.

"You're good with the fans, they like you so much. I don't think Bomi's going to get the same response if we told the fans," My brother sighed and patted my head.

"Don't say that! The fans just don't like it when an idol is dating another idol," I replied, hugging him.

"That's true," He frowned.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For the past 2 weeks, I had received disturbing and threatening messages and pictures, but I was a strong person and those sasaengs only disgusted me. Other than that, I tried replying all the fans that were nice and supportive on social media. I was grateful.

But as life never stops having complications, another problem arises.

Chanyeol oppa. He had been strangely quiet for the past 2 weeks, and only talked to the members when they talked to him and not even a single word to me.

"Xiumin oppa, why is Chanyeol oppa being strange?" I asked.

"I'm not supposed to tell you, but I guess you have the right to know. His parents had divorced. Furthermore, we are too busy due to too many activities so he's really tired and before the semester ended, the Miss Yoon told him that he got last in class, so he's really depressed. And there's one more thing that I can't tell you, but hint is it's related to you," He sighed.

"Related to me? That's why he wouldn't talk to me?"

He nodded and rested his hand on my shoulder.

"Jaemin ah, if I were you, I wouldn't talk to him right now. Let him cool off and the members will help him. Because sorry to say, but you'll only make it worse," His gaze softened.

I nodded my head obediently and went to Jongin oppa's room. He was on the bed monitoring their performance.

I slowly crept up behind him, ready to pounce onto him from behind.

"I can see you from the reflection of my computer, tiger," He voiced out.
Oops? Plan failed.

"I like it when you call me tiger, I sound fierce and strong," I laughed.

"What is it?" He sat up.

"Chanyeol hasn't been talking to me,"

"Well he hasn't been talking to me either,"

Why?

Ignoring that thought, I replied, "Xiumin oppa says i'm one of the reasons why he's depressed,"

"You?" Jongin oppa raised his eyebrows, thinking hard when someone shouted from the studio.

"CHANYEOL FAINTED!"

Quickly, Jongin oppa and I got up and rushed out of the room.

Thankfully, Sehun had already carried him to the bed with him still unconscious.

"This is one of the effects of depression. No biggie, no need for medicine. The most important thing right now is to stop his depression," Suho oppa explained.

After some time, everyone went back to what they were, doing still worried about Chanyeol. I volunteered to take care of him. If I couldn't talk to him, I could at least talk to him without him replying, when we was asleep.

I looked around his room, and decided to help clean it up since it was such a mess.
