Meanie - The Month Of May

   How was this possible? Mingyu couldn't believe what he was hearing...

   "So, we've already allocated you both joint accommodation near the set. It's already been processed with your managers and PLEDIS Entertainment, so we're ready to go when you are." A member of staff spoke from one end of the meeting table, his gaze moving back and forth between the two idols sat on either side of the table.

   Mingyu was baffled, taking a moment to absorb the information he'd just been given over the past ten or so minutes.
   Sat there in front of him on the opposite side of the large oak table was Jeon Wonwoo, the very man he despised. But that wasn't the worst part, oh no...

   The worst part was the fact that management for the new show Mingyu would be hosting had only just decided to inform Mingyu - and apparently Wonwoo, that they'd be co-hosting the show together as well as having to dorm together whilst filming took place.
   This wasn't mentioned when I signed the contract, Mingyu thought bitterly.

   "Are you kidding me?" Wonwoo scoffed, slamming a loosely clenched fist onto the table in front of him, gritting his teeth as he did so - his dark brown orbs burning holes through Mingyu's skull, "I refuse to work with him."

   Mingyu tensed up at the venom in Wonwoo's tone, his whole being was consumed with anger, his own facial expression reflected the same resentment that Wonwoo also wore on his face.
   "The feeling is mutual!" Mingyu spat back, leaning back in his chair with his arms crossed over his chest.

   The pair continued to glare at each other as the tension in the air between them grew thicker. The same staff member cleared his throats anxiously, "W-Well the contracts have already been signed. This was mentioned in the small print..."

   Wonwoo raised an eyebrow and turned his glare to the staff member who had spoken, "It mentioned accommodation would be sorted on your end and that there was a chance of the show being co-hosted. It never confirmed if it would be co-hosted or not, neither did it say who the potential co-host would be. You withheld that information!"

   Mingyu nodded his head after Wonwoo finished speaking, having also read that same information himself. Not that he wanted to agree with the lanky male opposite him - but the truth was the truth.
   "You think I'd agree to work alongside this sorry excuse of a human being?" Mingyu muttered as he ran a hand through his hair in frustration.

   "YAH!" Wonwoo yelled out, enraged by the attitude of the younger idol. Wonwoo stood up hastily from his chair which got pushed back from its place in the process, scratching against the laminate flooring.

   Mingyu couldn't help but offer Wonwoo a dark smirk, pleased with the fact he'd pissed the older male off. Wonwoo clenched both his fists at his side and if looks could kill, he'd be murdering Mingyu in every way possible at that very point in time. Eventually he turned his gaze away and ran his hand over the back of his neck, muttering curses under his breath given the situation, the sleeve of his grey jacket falling down his arm slightly to reveal an arm decorated with a variety of jewelry.

   The staff did their best to tone down the atmosphere and after a while, both Wonwoo and Mingyu calmed down. Their own managers taking them aside to discuss all the benefits the show would offer them and how it would progress their careers even further.
   Neither Wonwoo or Mingyu could deny how much they both wanted to work on the show...

   Begrudgingly, Mingyu let out a sigh as he stood up from his chair, palms pressed onto the wooden surface as he lifted himself up to his feet, before reaching to grab at the brown leather jacket he wore, adjusting it slightly with a roll of his shoulders.
   "Fine. It's just for one month, right? Then after that I never want to see your face again." Mingyu's eyes bore into Wonwoo's who was still sat down, looking up at the younger male.
