We finished working at around 12 am and I was so tired. I couldn't wait to get home and sleep. We are staff and we go through this, I can't imagine what they go through. As I mention them, I can't help but think of him. Taeyong. I should visit the guys. They're probably still in practice.
I head to the building despite being exhausted and head to the only open studio. There they were. Nct 127. I walk in and greet them. To my surprise only one of them speaks back. Jaehyun is his name I believe. He politely said hello and welcomed me while Taeyong barely noticed me, as he was telling the others to wrap up.

- You caught us at the right time Ms. Kim. Says Jaehyun.
- Huh? Caught you? I ask confused.
- Well aren't you working as a staff? I thought I saw you today.
- Oh yeah.
- Sorry, you may not know this, but staff cannot visit us randomly, only according to our schedule and work.
- Oh I'm sorry, I forgot. I say remembering that he wasn't wrong.
- Aha it's fine Ms. Kim, this seems to be your first day. I loved the outfits by the way.
- Oh, thank you. I say. Wow, this one really has manners doesn't he? Unlike someone...
- No problem. Your job suits you. By the way, about that rule...
- Can I at least talk to you? I ask. It would frustrate me to do nothing for them until they find out my plan. He looks at me surprised and smiles.
- That's what I was about to say.
- Guys we're done here. Says Taeyong as he glances over at Jaehyun and I. To my surprise Jaehyun stays put and doesn't budge.
- It's fine. I'm his favourite. Says Jaehyun while winking at me. Huh. This guy is something else.
- Wanna go to a convenience store? He asks. Though I was tired, I was also starving so I accepted. We went to a convenience store nearby, and bought some ramen and spicy rice cakes. It was good.
- So is everyone as nice as you? I ask. He smiles.
- Nah, but they're alright. He says jokingly. I giggle. Suddenly someone places a chair next to me and sits down. I look up.
- Oh hey. I say, a little shocked to see Taeyong.
- What are you doing here with staff? He asked Jaehyun. He sounded serious.
- Come on, she's a friend. He said.
- Friend? Yah! The CEO will kill you!
- That is, if he finds out. I just watch the two talk.
- Guys, it's fine. I finally say. Are you eating anything.
- No. Says Taeyong.
I nod and decide to let it go. I was too tired anyway. I was strangely feeling ill. My stomach burned quite badly. My head hurt too. What's going on? I'm usually extremely healthy. Am I that weak for work? No way.
- Ms. Kim? Asks Jaehyun. But I nearly hear him. I just felt like closing my eyes.
- Y/n? I hear Taeyong say worried. Are you ok? I gather up all my energy to answer.
- Yes. I then gather some more energy to smile. I'll get going.

They let me leave in peace and I swear I passed out the minute I reached my bed. I woke up in the same clothes, realizing I have to do this again today. I shower and get dressed, today, more comfortably.

I head to work in a hurry.
- Hey. I say once I get in. Suddenly a set of clothing is thrown on me.
- Right on time y/n, now hurry and take this to the studio, they're performing after their practice. I sigh.
- Alright. I say. I head out and suddenly wonder what she meant by on time. I check my phone finally since last night only to see the 20 text messages and 5 missed calls of Lee Taeyong. I gasp and open the messages.

Today at 12:52 am

Did you get home safely?

Are you okay?

You didn't look so well

Is work hard on you?

Hello?

Are you asleep?

Y/n?

Y/N?!

HELLO?

I guess you're asleep.

I'm still worried.

Call me in the morning

How did you know Jaehyun btw?

Whatever.

Call me plz when you wake up

I'm still a little worried

Today at 7:35 am

Are you awake?

Aren't you supposed to be at work by now?

Are you ignoring me?

No wait, are you actually okay??!?!?

Wow he really is worried. I should've called him. But I didn't check my phone!
He'd understand it's whatever.
I get there and open the door to the studio a little scared. Thankfully, Jaehyun reaches me before Taeyong.

- Hey let me help you with that.
- Hi. And thanks I say. We place the sets on a big table.
- Got home safely? I was a bit worried to be honest. He says.
- Yes. I say. He nods and leaves to help a member, Mark I think with something. Suddenly I feel a hand on my shoulder. I quickly turn around. I see Taeyong, pissed as ever.
- So,
- I can explain.
- Really that you had no idea your dad wanted to offer me to go solo?! He asks angrily.
- He what?!? I say starting to get mad. My reaction must've been too shocked.
- Wait, you seriously didn't know? He asked.
- No! Obviously you would hear it from me first if I knew you idiot.
- Woaa watch it. He says taking a step closer to me.
- What did you say?
- That I'll think about it.
- Are you crazy? I ask. Then I pull him to a corner realizing people could get suspicious.
- Well if I just say no his plans would go faster. He said. I nod. He's right.
- Ok good. I'll be more careful now, honestly I don't know where my head has been, maybe it's because of this work or something but I'll do-
- Ok. He says taking another step closer to me. That's a little too close.
- Now why did you ignore my texts? I was worried. He says in a serious, raspy voice.
- A- oh about that, I was just- he gets really close suddenly, which leaves me out of breath and speechless.
- It's okay, just don't do it anymore. First and last warning y/n.

Taeyong's POV
I walk away from her but look over my shoulder to see her blushing. I think I went overboard. Why do I feel so limitless when I'm with her? Oh I should stop looking now. Although I can't help it. She's blushing madly.
How cute.
