Lucky 7

Chaerin's Night

Lucky 7's manager looked through her phone over and over checking if her boyfriend ever contacted her. She looked at the time on the screen that read 11:19.

The party had started over 3 hours ago and her silly boyfriend didn't even have the decency to text her if he was going to be late.

Just watch Lee Sungmin, I will punish you if you come. She thought along with ways to punish her Hallyu star boyfriend.

She had gathered up the girls in the dressing room at the back getting ready for their performance to end the 'magical' night.

"Yah! Choi Min Ah! I specifically told you to only drink one. Do you even think you can perform out there?" she asked angrily taking out her anger on the poor girl who had just woken up half an hour ago.

"Neh, unnie." Min Ah started, putting the ice pack on her head down, frowning. "Chincha mianhaeyo. I should've been more responsible." she looked up at the manager, with tears not wanting to fall.

Now Chaerin felt bad. She would've been disappointed at Min Ah for not listening to her, but she would never be mean that would almost make her cry.

"I know, but still!" Chaerin sighed stopping herself for making the leader feel more apologetic than she already is. "Never mind, just make sure you do well out there." she continued moving along to check on the other members. She reminded herself to be extra nicer to Min Ah when they get home after she let out her frustrations on the right person.

"Chaerin unnie what's wrong?" asked Hyun Ji. "You seem to be in a bad mood." the maknae continued.

"Mmmm, she's right." Hae Jung added. "Min Ah unnie is really sorry. She NEVER drinks. Something must've happened."

"Should we ask her?" Na Eun interrupted. "Or do you think she just needs time?" she asked.

"Ani, don't you dare ask her. She'll just think she's more of a burden now. We just need to wait till out little leader gets herself together again." Chaerin answered. "Plus, I already have a person working on it." she smiled.

The three girls smiled. They knew very well what their manager was up to.

Just then, the dressing room door opened with a loud bang, almost breaking.

A man in a pink polo ran through inside yelling. "Cherry-ya!!!!" Sungmin spotted his girlfriend and set out to tackle her with a hug. He knew she would be really mad right now.

Chaerin moved over right away, dodging her boyfriend's try for an embrace.

Sungmin almost fell over as he was expecting Chaerin to stay at her place, so he could properly hug her. "Cherry-ya, that was mean." he pouted.

"Bwo?" the girlfriend exclaimed. The nerve of people these days.

The Lucky 7 members giggled as they were witnessing the two love birds quarrel again. It always happened like this. Sungmin would always do things that he really didn't mean, but could've prevented it from happening and Chaerin would always be mad at him. They knew better though, deep down under that mad act was worry. She wasn't mad if he was late if he had a reasonable excuse, she just gets frustrated because she gets so worried that he hasn't even contacted her.

Chaerin glared at them, making them stop right away and get back to what they were doing.

"Mianhae, Cherry." Sungmin softly said. He gave her the puppy dog eyes as he looked at her. "There was this meeting at the company for this concert and I forgot it was the same day." he explained. "By the time I was about to come, the other members dragged me to the meeting."

"Oh! Sungmin oppa's telling the truth. Joonmyun oppa couldn't come today either because of the meeting." Hye Rae pitched in saving the innocent looking guy. She looked at Sungmin and gave in an encouraging smile that said, hang in there.

"Neh, Hye Rae's right. Kibum oppa had to go too because of the stupid meeting." Seon Yul added. Not liking the meeting that separated her from her best friend. It did get her closer to Sungyeol though, which she still doesn't know if a good thing or bad thing.

Sungmin was so grateful to the two. At least now, Cherry would've softened up and he can figure out the rest and make her forgive him.

Chaerin wondered for a while. Was she too mean? Should she give in easily? She's going to lose either way, so might as well give up now. All those ran through her mind.

"Why didn't you even text me to let met know you were coming late?" she asked, gentler this time.

"I was on my way to my car to charge my phone because it was dying and by the time the meeting started, it had already died." he answered honestly, still giving her the look.

"Arasso...." she whispered, looking away. He did seem to be telling the truth and she was maybe overreacting a little. Okay, a lot, but what can she do? She's just like every girlfriend out there.

"Yay!" screamed Sungmin in joy as he went back again to hug his girl and finally catching her this time. He wrapped her around him, squeezing her tighter into the embrace.

"I'm really sorry. I'll make it up to you, I promise." he whispered by her ear.

He loosened up the hug, pulling back a bit and stared down at her as she looked up. He smiled lovingly to her and kissed her forehead with a loud 'mwah', then went back to hug her again.

"Oppa, saranghae." whispered Chaerin this time, softening up as all her worries were gone. Her boyfriend was there in front of her safe and sound and she couldn't ask for anything more.

The singer's smile grew wider as he answered. "I love you more." loud enough as the others heard. He was so thankful for being able to call her his. He even wanted to thank the gang that once tried to hurt Chaerin as it was the reason that the two met. If there ever was anyone trying to her, he would show up all over again, putting his life over the line just to save the beautiful girl in his arms.

The room erupted into cheers as they heard their love confession for each other. They've heard it a lot of times, but every time they hear it, it makes them happy as well.

"Wooo!" the girls cheered.

"Kiseu, kiseu, kiseu." Ye Jin started chanting, showing her real self with the members, not being the cold image that she seems. She was a sucker for romance.

The members chanted in unison following their rapper.

Chaerin couldn't hide her burning cheeks as she knew Sungmin would gladly oblige to the audience's request.

Really doing what Chaerin thought, Sungmin was smiling widely as he got closer to his girlfriend's face. He pulled her waist closer and slowly moved his lips to meet hers.
