And I Love You Too

"Omo unnie look at this!" the maknae of Red Velvet shouted across the room. Irene, Seulgi and Wendy hurried to the living room of their hotel suite to gather and literally shoved their heads together to look at Yeri's phone.

"Yeri-ah, call your Sooyoung unnie. Distract her. Wendy and Seulgi, go to manager-oppa and tell him about the articles. I'll call Minhyuk to ask them to check on her." Irene commanded everyone as the leader of the group.

Irene went to her room to make a call to Minhyuk.

"Yeobo! Have you landed in safely? Are you guys fine? Are they treating you well?" Minhyuk asked as soon as he answered the call.

"Yeobo, gwenchana. I have a favor to ask you."

"Are you sure you're okay? Your voice seems..." Minhyuk trailed off.

"It's about Sooyoung."

Irene relayed the situation to Minhyuk to which the latter chose to help. Suddenly, knocks on her door can be heard.

"Yeobo, hang on a second." Irene, still holding the phone close to her ears, opened her door and was surprised to see the look on Yeri's face.

"Unnie, she's not answering her phone. I think she already saw it all. What are we gonna do? Should we just fly back to Seoul?" Worry is evident in the maknae's voice

"Shh Yeri-ah, we can't fly back to Seoul. It will only make the situation worse."

"Yeobo, is everything alright? I heard Yeri." Minhyuk, still on the phone, muttered to Irene.

"We badly need your help. Specifically, Sungjae's."

Meanwhile, back in Seoul. BTOB is busy preparing for their next comeback. They have been practicing all night. Most of them are already tired so Eunkwang allowed a 15-minute break. Most of the members immediately flopped down on the floor due to exhaustion but Minhyuk chose to stay outside to talk to his girlfriend, Irene. After the variety show We Got Married, BTOB and Red Velvet managed to stay as close friends. Minhyuk was really inlove with Irene but it took him a while to ask her out since he is aware that Changsub has a crush on her. But then, they are brothers and when they talked it out, Changsub gave way for Minhyuk for he knows how serious he is with Irene. But not without a warning that he will break every bone in his body once he breaks the heart of Red Velvet's leader. As for Sungjae and Joy, they are the best of friends. They often go out together. They even post the most candid photos of each other in their SNS (which always earns Sungjae a punch from Sooyoung and a "Delete it or I will ruin that face of yours with my bare hands" yell). It is obvious that they have feelings for each other but they are just too afraid to confess. Their members always tease them but they just shrug it off with a "We're best friends. How can we fall in love with each other?" It is neither a confirmation or denial of their feelings.

"Our loverboy is back!" Ilhoon whistled as he teased Minhyuk who just entered the room.

"What's with that face? Have you not contacted Irene-ssi?" Hyunsik asked.

"Sungjae-ah, you can leave early tonight. You can also skip practice tomorrow." Minhyuk said with a straight face.

"Yah! Why is Sungjae the only one who can leave early? And why is he not attending practice tomorrow?" Changsub complained.

"Aish hyung don't get jealous. Maybe it's because I'm a better dancer than you are. Ahh finally I can rest at the dorm." Sungjae muttered while grinning at his favorite hyung.

"You're not sleeping at the dorm tonight too." Minhyuk said. Sungjae's jaw dropped. He earned a couple of stares from the members who are still oblivious of what's going on. Eunkwang remained silent and composed as he already has a hunch on what this is about.
