Since their date Irene and Jin has been chatting with each other almost on regular basis. With their occasional flirting the two started discussing their whole day with each other. It was quite surprising for Irene as most of the people consider her boring because she is quite introvert. But with Jin she is always in a comfortable zone though the boy does says things which makes her heart pound like crazily. But even with his self praises and compliments for her, Irene doesn't feel uncomfortable at all.
Since they are usually busy throughout the day, the two usually texted each other at midnight. It was as if they are ending a day with each other as well as starting a new one together too. One thing that Irene admired about him that he wasn't intimidating at all. The boy was going on a pace in which she felt extremely secure. Irene hasn't really dated anyone since she became an idol but she did date as a teenager and only after 1 date the boy either tried to kiss her or propose her to be her girlfriend only because she was so "beautiful". But this person feels like someone who is interested in her talks, in her stories and her experiences. He wants to know about her more rather just being with her because she is so pretty.
Irene was actually right too. Even though at first maybe Jin was interested in her because of her visuals. But from the point of them flirting in the corridor or just standing in close proximity with her, Jin was interested in her completely. All the videos he saw on the internet displays an Irene completely different from whom he met a few days ago. He's also an idol who understands that they have to portray a different personality in front of the camera but the girl he was falling for wasn't the perfect nation's visual Irene but the simple girl Bae Joohyun.
The time past by really quickly. It was the 31st December and there was a new year programme in which both the group's were invited. Because of these programmes the duo haven't gotten time to even ask each other out to meet again which in their hearts they desperately wanted to do.
The programme had a opening event in which all the artist had to perform together on one of their senior's songs. Though everyone was supposed to perform together in reality it was more like a relay performance with one group performing after another on different songs of the same artist.
The practice for the opening event went by gracefully as again the group's were just "collaborating" for the namesake. The duo gave each other quite a few looks from the sides of their eyes but they tried their level best to not make it obvious. Sadly they couldn't get any time to actually say a few words to each other and just like that the practice ended.
The event's red carpet began and nothing significant happened. Once you have attended quite a few of these event, the thrill keeps on declining. The opening of the event was something everyone was looking forward. Backstage there were 10 idol groups standing beside each other.
As so many beautiful people were standing together there were a lot of eyes watching everyone. Consequently none of the group present there even tried to interact with a group of opposite gender.
The senior group on whose songs everyone was performing was actually getting "A lifetime achievement Award". The junior groups were just introducing the legends.
Just before the opening event the senior group acknowledged everyone for their effort. Standing on an elevated surface they could be seen by everyone and the most visible thing about them was the casual atmosphere around them. In just 5 minutes they not only expressed their gratitude towards their junior but also joked with them. The youngest of the team who was "hyung" Or "oppa" for everyone standing in front of him joked about how he has to finish this event fastly to go prepare for an stargazing event which will held tomorrow on new years at Han River.
Listening to this Jin eyes darted straight at Irene. Just like all the female idols around him, she was also fangirling over how romantic their senior is. This made the boy roll his eyes off to Mars.
An idea emerged is his mind.
To spend the new years together.
Even though he did not know whether she will agree to it or not he already had tones of plans going on in his mind. Throughout the event this was the only thing that he was thinking about. Jin was conventionally romantic so stargazing was something of his taste.
Finally he gathered the courage to message her.
"Hey"
The reply came in an instant "Hey"
After casually asking her about irrelevant things he finally said
"Would you like to go to the stargazing event at han river tomorrow.?"
After pressing send it was almost like hell for Jin. 2 minutes passed away...5 minutes went by and now it was almost 10 minutes since he has sended that message but no answer was given to him. Heartbeat rising with each minute passing by and finally his message tone ringed. The heart which was pounding like crazily a few seconds ago slowed down. With one eye closed and trembling hands he opened the message.
"Yeah sure"
Two simple words provided so much relief to him. From that moment he started thinking about how beautiful it will be to spend new years with someone so special under such romantic atmosphere.
Irene was almost jumping in her room. From running in her room after seeing the message from notification panel to writing a long message agreeing to the plan in her notes. Erasing her practice messages to finally settling on "yeah sure" to give a casual feel, Irene experienced way too many emotions in a short period of time.
And then her message tone ringed again. After seeing the message an unknown smile crept onto her face.
"I'll be waiting for tomorrow"
