Courage in the Game 2 (Discontinued)

Love and Pain

One week later-------

Hunter POV (Midnight)

It had been a week since the whole confession night thing and I couldn't get my mind off it. I tried to focus on the photoshoot Midnight was currently doing, but it was hard. I was glad that we were finally promoting in China, but I still had the risk of bumping into him due to the fact his group promoted here too. Somehow, I just knew that we would bump into each other. And we did. At the beginning of the shoot, Exo M walked into the room. Xiumin, Lay, and Luhan looked as if they were the only ones at peace. Then again, Luhan looked like he was missing Sehun a bit. Kris and Tao looked like they were at odds with each other and Chen looked like he was deep in thought about something. 

"Oh good! Exo M is finally here!" The photographer exclaimed. 

What? Okay, I suddenly had no clue what was going on. 

"Okay, let me inform you all what is going on. Midnight and Exo M have a photoshoot together. This means it will probably last for a couple of days due to the fact of the number of people. The groups will have group shots, solo shots, and then the two groups will mix for some," the photographer explained. 

Oh great. Just my luck. I had messed things up and now had to work with him? This was going to be interesting. I began to wonder if he would act the same. Had he figured out it was me a week ago? What would happen if he had? I watched as Rayne almost skipped over to Tao. 

"How'd it go?" She asked. 

"Like a lemon drop," Tao answered. 

"I'm here if you need to talk," she told him before walking away. 

Her words replayed in my head? Did she know about confession night? How was that possible? Maybe Tao had talked to her to get advice. I also noticed how Kris just stared at Rayne as she walked away. I almost laughed when I thought back to what had just happened. Rayne had only spoken to Tao. Ha! So Kris acting like that meant he still liked Rayne even if it was just a little bit. And Tao saying 'like a lemon drop'? Was he talking about the confessions? It was possible. 

Tao POV (Exo)

I felt kind of depressed after the confession night. I had told Kris that I liked him and he had rejected me. Why did he still have to like Rayne? Sure I had liked her in the beginning, but then my attention was drawn to Kris. Just watching the way he moved and did simple actions. But now? Aish! It was completely awkward between us. I began to wonder why I had even thought of confessing to him. If I hadn't, he would be talking to me right now. I glanced at him as he went off to Exo's dressing room. I wished things could just go back to the way it had been before a week ago. Where we were friends and not like this. 

"Hey, Tao go get changed!" I heard a voice shout at me. 

"Okay," I answered, not knowing who it was. 

"Yah! Show a bit of respect for your hyung," the voice came again. This time I knew it was Xiumin. 

"Sorry hyung I didn't know who was talking to me."

"Whatever. Just go get changed."

I nodded and headed for the dressing room. I was silently hoping that Kris had already changed and wasn't in the room. But as I got there, he was leaving the room. So we accidentally brushed arms as we passed each other. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw his eyes widen. My cheeks tinted pink as I closed the door. I hurriedly changed and got back out to the photoshoot. When I got there, Midnight was doing their group shots. After about fifteen minutes and hundreds of photos later, they were done.
