Wedding Planner ; Jeongcheol

Chapter 7

Jeonghan felt like he was about to explode. He was going off the walls, and he couldn't stop thinking about what was going to happen in two days. In two days, a lot of people were going to be expecting a phenomenal wedding, and although Jeonghan was sure he'd be able to deliver on his side of the issue, there was still one major problem.

He was still missing a bride and groom.

The wedding planner let out a loud sigh and ran his hands through his hair in an attempt to calm himself down. He'd tried calling Seungcheol earlier, but the other man wasn't picking up his calls or replying to his texts either. Although Seungcheol hadn't completely abandoned him and showed up to things like the finalization of the flower decorations, the caterer, the DJ, and some other things, he still hadn't updated Jeonghan on the status of the couple to get married.

Jeonghan sighed at the unfairness of it all. He still had other weddings that needed some of his attention, yet he was still doing everything that'd been asked of him. He'd transferred the billing over to Seungcheol's bank account, and he'd also done his part in making sure everything was going smoothly. Couldn't Seungcheol at least do his part and help him out a bit more? Even though they met quite often, each meeting left him hanging and still clueless as to how everything was going.

Didn't he deserve the right to be reassured that all their planning wouldn't end up as one huge disaster?

Carrying around such a huge secret was driving him absolutely crazy, and Jeonghan didn't know how much longer he could last. He knew that Chan could tell there was something up with him, but Jeonghan couldn't tell him a single word about everything he was feeling. His phone beeped, and Jeonghan was immediately snapped out of his thoughts.

We have to meet today. I'm coming over.

Jeonghan felt his heart stop in his chest.

What had gone wrong now?

---

Seungcheol was an hour late, and Jeonghan could feel his heart threaten to explode out of his chest. He'd never been the best person to deal with such stress and pressure, and if Seungcheol didn't come soon, he knew he'd burst. Jeonghan paced the floor in front of Chan, and the younger man cleared his throat to catch his boss' attention.

"Why are you burning a hole into the carpet with all that pacing?" Chan asked as he turned his eyes back to the documents he'd been flipping through. "Just...sit down or something. Your restlessness is completely off putting."

"Please tell me I'm not insane."

Chan looked up from the papers that were on his desk and shot Jeonghan an uninterested look. "You of all people should know that I'm never going to protest against your insanity." He looked back down at the papers then looked back up. "But why in the world are you suddenly so..."

Jeonghan slowly moved and sat down in front of him. "What are we doing Chan...tell me, what are we doing?"

The younger man narrowed his eyes. "Have you taken too much cough medicine again?" He reached forward and pressed a palm against the older man's forehead to check if he had a fever. When he realized the Jeonghan was at a normal temperature, he drew back his hand and studied him carefully.

"...we're planning a wedding."

"Whose wedding?"

Chan's eyes narrowed, but he decided to play along with Jeonghan for a bit longer. He straightened up and clasped his hands together on his desk. "We're planning Go Ara's marriage to Choi Seungcheol..."

"Are you sure?" Jeonghan asked as he tried to calm himself down. However, he was failing completely. The longer it took Seungcheol to come and save him from bursting, Jeonghan just knew that he'd confess everything if Chan pressed the issue further. He let out a sigh and tried to change the topic, "God, I just –"
