"We're doing what now?" I asked out loud, my eye bulging ever so slightly as I attempted to process Ji Wo's sentence.

A couple's photo shoot

"Is there a problem?" She asked with her arms crossed, a mischievous smirk forming across her lips as she looked between the both of us.

"Well, I'll point out the most obvious one," Hoseok began as he pointed to me and then back to him several times, "we are not a couple."

Ji Wo wasn't amused with his opening arguement. And she began to walk towards a long line of clothes that were prepped and ready for the shoot.

"And do you think anyone in this industry doing a couples photo shoot is a couple?" She asked him rhetorically before tossing her head from side to side for a moment, "ok maybe one or two are actual couples but that doesn't prove a point."

She turned around and clapped her hands together, facing Hoseok and I.

"The point is," she began with a very wide grin, "you both have the looks and the passion. There is a connection between you two and wether you two are aware of it or not is another story." She paused and blinked for a moment before continuing.

"Look, I just need a few pictures of you two looking all lovey-dovey in the outfits I've made. Love is so in this season!" She chirped before prancing back to the rack of clothes and pulling some off the rail.

A young man quickly stepped over to her side and proceeded to hold his arms out for her to drape the selected outfits across. One arm for me, the other for Hoseok.

I squinted and looked closer at the outfits in question. Ji Wo had told us in the cafe that we were modeling her new line of swim wear. But she did fail to mention that it was a couples photo shoot.

That wasn't the part that made me uncomfortable thought. I was worried about the cameras. The fact that I would be captured in a photo for all of the world to see. I wasn't very comfortable with the idea of that.

But I had to suck up my courage and endure it. If I wanted to make my dream of becoming a dancer a reality, I had to become comfortable with camera's. Photos immortalised the person within it and ensured they would be there forever, and that's what I wanted. I wanted to be remembered in this world forever.

"I really wish you would've told us that-"

I cut Hoseok off with a loud clear of my throat and smiled to Ji Wo, "I'm down for it! Let's start!"

Hoseok took a step back and let out a nervous chuckle before nodding to Ji Wo.

"Y-Yeah, what she said."

It's not as skimpy as I thought it was going to be.

I thought to myself as I turned to the mirror in the change room. There were three swim shots that I was to try on for the photo shoot, and Hoseok had a pair of board shorts that would match my swim wear.

I turned around and admired the way the swim suit hugged my curves and ensured that I was held together but comfortable. I had never felt more confident in such swim wear ever before. The top piece was a top knot, but it didn't rub into my skin and create red marks.

Considering Ji Wo is so small herself, I was surprised at how well she accommodated for the curvy girls with her swimwear.

Then there was a knock on the change room door and the chirpy voice of Ji Wo soon followed.

"(Y/N)! When you have the first piece on do you mind coming to the room next to this for a little make up and hair touch ups?" She asked in such a way that made it sound like I didn't have a choice no matter what.

"Uh yeah sure thing, I'm coming out now!" I said as I turned and grabbed hold of the silk dressing robe I had picked up to cover myself with before the photo shoot. I stepped out of the change room and made my way to the next room where I was quickly sat down in a chair and bedazzled with make up and wavy curls of hair.

Those stylists are something else.

"All done!" The young woman grinned as she spun my chair around to face the mirror again. I was shocked, it took me a few moments to even figure out that it was me who I was staring back at.

Of course the make up was minimal, with only a few strokes of mascara, light eyeshadow and blush. The world of modelling has to have something small to cover up the imperfections on the skin. Alternatively, they would resort to botching the models with photo shop. My hair was done in loose beach curls, a perfect fit for the swimsuit shoot.

"You look so gorgeous!" Ji Wo clapped her hands excitedly as she took my hand and lead me out of the make up room and towards the photo shoot area. She walked very quickly for such a small woman. I attempted to keep up with her as quickly as I could.

It felt like I had to be careful with my whole body, as it has now been made perfect for the camera. One small smudge of make up will make or break this whole event.

"Oooo Hobi! You look so handsome!" Ji Wo exclaimed, and my head turned towards where she was. In an instant, my breath caught in my throat.

"Sweet baby Jesus..."
