I'm dead without you (omegaverse)

At Blue Haven Records

Shiro and Deion had not expected the chaos outside the entrance of Blue Haven Records. A dozen reporters rushed them as soon as the taxi arrived in front of the large office building, and Shiro was bombarded with questions. Shiro's two bodyguards pushed off the screaming reporters while Deion and Shiro rushed toward the doors. Some guards let them into the building and just inside stood a tall Korean woman and next to her a little blonde omega.

"Welcome, Mr. Nakamura and Mr. Johnson. Thank you for coming here in such short notice. My name is Yeo-reum Pae, and I am the Head of Public Relations. This is Jane Gray, and she is the Label Manager."

Shiro and Deion shook hands with the two women.

"Mr. Hendricks is waiting for you, please follow me," said the blonde woman and Shiro and Deion followed to the elevators, which took them to the fourth floor.

The Blue Haven Records office was relatively new, and it was big. They were taken to a conference room, and when they stepped through the doorway, they were met by Elliot, who was wearing regular clothes, a black t-shirt, and black jeans. The brown-haired man was dark around his eyes, and he looked worn. He reached out his hand to the two of them, but when he took Shiro's, Elliot didn't let go until Deion next to them cleared his throat, which made Elliot drop the hand immediately.
Shiro felt very uncomfortable. It was as if the man was examining him, his gaze hard. They sat down around the table. Shiro and Deion on one side and the three executives on the other.

Elliot started talking:

"You read the news, I suppose?"

Deion nodded.

"Yes, I explained to Shiro what happened."

"Excellent. The situation is sensitive for obvious reasons. It was only yesterday that the acquisition went through. We have barely been able to go through every artist that K-records had signed."

Elliot looked directly at Shiro.

"Of course, we know who you are Mr. Nakamura, you are well known, and we would like to continue working with you. So we have no plans to cancel your contract. But of course, we want to hear your opinion on this."

Shiro looked at Deion, who nodded encouragingly at him.

"I also have no plans to cancel the contract. My goal of making a career outside Asia is unchanged. But I have no plans whatsoever to become a mate to your Boss."

The three on the other side of the table looked surprised at how Shiro went straight to the point, and Elliot nodded satisfactorily.

"Great, because as you have probably already have heard, Mr. McCallister is happily married, and he is not interested in you as a partner. Mr. McCallister and his husband both think you are a very talented artist; their daughter Caoimhe is one of your fans, but that's all. You understand what we mean by that?"

Shiro understood precisely what the man meant. He should just forget about this 'fated pair' business and leave McCallister and his family alone.

It suited him nicely, but still, he found himself feeling a little bit annoyed when the husband and daughter were mentioned. Shiro did not want to care, but a feeling of jealousy arose in him. He tried to force it down.

Shiro nodded.

"I understand, and I agree."

Elliot watched Shiro for a moment before his face lit up with a big smile, and he clapped his hands together.

"Excellent. Yeo-reum here will make a statement from both Blue Haven Records and the McCallister family regarding the subject, that your relationship is purely professional. I suppose you will make a similar statement, don't you, Mr. Johnson?"
