Fairy tale ( What happened to us? )

x x c h a p t e r 8 x x

After receiving a text message from Jennie, Hanbin rounds up his members.

iKON and BLΛƆKPIИK members are sitting together. Jennie and Hanbin stand right in front of them.

"Before we start we wanted to apologize beforehand. We do apologize for disappointing you guys." Both of them bow to their members.

"Yah, why are you saying sorry? Raise your head Hanbin, Jennie," Jinhwan said. He is confused and startled to see them bowing.

"Wait, are they going to confess that they're dating?" Yunhyeong whispers to his members. The members suddenly look excited but still bewildered to hear Yunhyeong's statement.

"It's impossible. Did you forget how coward our leader is?" Bobby said. Everyone nods and somehow taken back to reality. Hanbin suddenly getting a girlfriend? On top of that, it's Kim Jennie? Impossible.

From then, they alternately explain what happen last night and also includes what they talk to their managers earlier.

Both groups are baffled to hear the finality of their statement. Especially iKON who is not expecting the sudden turn of events.

"So, you and Kai are dating?" Yunhyeong can't help but asks. Everyone is hesitating to ask Jennie.

"Yes oppa, and I'll appreciate if you will not spread that information," Jennie said while bowing. She feels guilty again facing iKON members.

"We didn't know noona. You're great at hiding it." Chanwoo said. It may sound sarcastic but he is actually giving a compliment. Usually, when someone is dating within YG family, everyone knows who's dating who. Rumors spread fast within the stylists, staff, and artists. When Bobby and Jinwhwan had dating rumors, everyone already knows who their girlfriend is and how long they were dating.

The fact that iKON doesn't know that Jennie is dating Kai shows how careful she was until now.

"Really? How? When?" Bobby continuously asks Jennie.

"You guys are not asking the real questions." Jisoo hissed.

"Jennie, Hanbin, they will release a statement that you two are currently dating. What's your plan? I don't know how they come up with that strategy but honestly, it doesn't sound right." Jisoo added.

"I'm planning on sending a text message to Kai. I already sent one to my mom. I don't want to confuse the two of them if the news breaks out abruptly."

"Noona, I didn't approve it. I don't want to lie to my fans. I also don't want to confuse my family."

"Your fans will be confused too Hanbin. Maybe they won't even believe it. You? Dating? Jennie Kim? It doesn't make sense." Jinhwan said.

"They will just laugh at it," Donghyuk said while laughing.

"They will deny it and said it's impossible," Bobby said.

"They will deny it not because they're upset, they will deny it cause they know how coward you are," Jinhwan added earning loud laughs in the room. Jisoo shushed the boys and let out a deep breath.

"You approve it or not, it doesn't matter. You know how our management works." Jisoo said. The room that was loud is now filled with deep sighs. The silence was broken when Hanbin receives a call from his manager.

"Please excuse me. I'll take just this call." Hanbin said and he steps out of the room.

"I'm really sorry for dragging your leader into this mess," Jennie said while keeping her head down.

"Yah, Jennie please don't say that. It was our leader's decision to save you. We're proud that he saved you. Because honestly, that was unexpected. You can't expect a coward doing brave things like that." Jinhwan is still not finished in slandering and dragging their leader to dust. Lisa is also laughing and loving the diss thrown to his favorite oppa. Jennie smiled and relief to hear Jinhwan statement.

"I feel bad for Hayi. I'm pretty sure she'll be confused too. I hope Hanbin explains it to her well." Jennie said. iKON is confused once again. Chaeyoung is nodding and agreeing to her while Lisa and Jisoo are shaking their heads in disbelief.

Jinhwan is about to ask her and clarify the situation but Jennie receives a call from her manager. She excuses herself and gets out of the room.

"Wait? What? She feels bad for Hayi? Why?"Jinhwan asks.

"Jennie-unnie thinks Hanbin-oppa and Hayi are dating." Lisa answers.

"But they are indeed dating right?" Chaeyoung said.

"Yah, Bobby is your Hanbin really dating Hayi?" Jisoo asks. Jisoo already knows the answer but she just wanted to confirm it.

"The last time I check he's still dating his studio." Bobby simply answers. Junhoe laughs so loud that Jinhwan was startled. Jinhwan glared at Junhoe. Junhoe bows to Jinhwan and says sorry.

Chaeyoung gasps.

"Hanbin-oppa is dating his studio? I thought he's dating Hayi? I can't believe it. Sooner or later he will marry his studio just like the guy who marries his TV." iKON members laugh at Chae-young. They thought the girl is joking but her members know how serious she is when she said that.

"Chaeyoung-ah, we love you. But sometimes I want to smack your head." Jisoo said.

"What? Why?"

"I don't want to explain it. Lisa, please explain it to your bestfriend." Lisa whisper to Chae-young and the girl let outs a loud "ahhhhhhhh so that's what he means."

Jisoo shakes her head.

"Our Hanbin is clearly not dating Hayi but why does your Jennie thinks he does?" Bobby asks them.
