Locked Away

"He is okay" I tell Taekwoon over the phone. I called him as soon as I woke up.

"Good" he sighs in relief and I smile to myself. Yuta is currently discussing their debut with Jaehyun.

"Listen, what are you doing tonight?" I ask him and I hear him inhale sharply.

"Nothing. Why?"

"Do you want to go on a date with me?" I lower my voice in hope that Jaehyun and Yuta won't hear me.

"S-Sure. W-What t-time?" Taekwoon becomes a stuttering mess and I laugh softly.

"Seven? Meet me at my place" I state and I can hear the smile in his voice.

"I'll see you then" he is very quick to hang up.

I lower my phone and turn my attention back to the guys. Jaehyun looks really happy for someone who was just shot twice.

"Who was that on the phone?" Yuta asks me when he realises I'm off the call.

"Taekwoon ah. Is that all right with you?" I smile, still dazed by the fact that I just asked Taekwoon out.

"Oh lala" Jaehyun whistles and I just ignore him. Yuta laughs and watches happily as I turn red.

"Have you let the rest of the members know?" I ask them trying to change the subject.

"Yeah. I texted Taeyong a few minutes ago. they are all on their way" Yuta informs me and I nod.

"Good. Well if you'd excuse me I have some business to attend to. Please let me know if anything changes."

"Thank you so much for coming Hakyeon" Jaehyun sounds genuine and I know he is.

I smile and bid my goodbyes before the room. I hurry to the office to find Hongbin taking a pile of papers from desk.

"Hey" he drops them all onto the floor when he sees me and rushes over to me, pulling me into his arms.

"Jaehyun is fine. He is awake and laughing" I tell him happily. He squeezes me reassuringly and pulls away.

"That's great news. Listen, I was just taking some of the paperwork of your shoulders. Do you want to do it or.."

"Nah, you can do it. Why thank you Mr. Lee" I smirk knowing he was hoping that I'd do it.

He scowls and picks all the papers up and takes them to his desk.

"Oh yeah, that Takuya guy is coming in today. He should be here wishing an hour actually."

"Good" I say quietly and take a seat at my desk. I turn on the monitor and begin to read all of my emails.

"Yah, how's your client?" I hear Sanghyuk suddenly ask from behind.

I turn around in my chair to look at him.
"Jaehyun isn't my client but he is fine. Thanks for asking."

He scoffs and hands me a paper bag. "Don't say anything" he forbids me and walks off into the conference room where he always sits with Hongbin.

Hongbin stands and grabs his folder before eagerly following his boyfriend into the other room.

I sigh and slowly open the bag. Inside is a bottle of iced tea with a muffin. Written in messy handwritten on a small note is;

Don't get used to it. I'm sorry about your client.
-Hyuk

I smile and crack open the iced tea. Just as I start to drink it the doors to the office fly open and a really tall male walks in.
