Chapter 28: Magazine Photos

It’s obvious that Junhui and Minghao were hitting it off and were developing feelings for each other. The small smiles they gave each other in the halls of the office were enough to confirm this. However, that doesn't change the fact they both knew all of this would have to be kept secret. So when Junhui got a knock on his office door at lunch time he was surprised to see Minghao walk in rather than Wonwoo. 

"Hey." Junhui quietly started, "I wasn't expecting you."

"Oh, were you expecting someone else? If so I can leave if you're waiting for someone." 

"No no no no that's not what I meant at all!" Junhui panicked. "I just meant that, um, I was surprised- wait no, shocked- um that's not right either-" 

"It's fine." Minghao giggled gently, "I was kidding" 

Minghao walked further to the office and gestured to the chairs in front of Junhuis desk. "Can I sit?" 

"Oh, uh, yeah, sure. What are you doing here anyway?" 

"I'm on my lunch break. I was hoping to catch you when you weren't busy, but you seem like you're working on something. Probably something important." 

"Nothing too important. Actually, do you want to see?" 

"I don't know, it’s CEO work, it seems kind of classified." 

"I think I can make an exception for you." Junhui smiled. 

Minghao got up and made his way around the desk and leaned over Junhuis shoulder so he could see what was displayed on the screen of his computer. There was a very complicated and colorful schedule up on the screen that Junhui could read easily but he could tell Minghao was quite confused. The way his eyebrows scrunched together almost made Junhui squeal. He’s so cute.

“What is all of this?” Minghao asked.

“Oh, this is the boring stuff, here, let me show you all the fun stuff.” He said as he moved his mouse to one of his already opened tabs. As he clicked on it the screen changed to show many various images that were so small it was hard to tell what they actually were. Minghaos eyebrows became even more scrunched but there was a light of intrigue glimmering in his eyes. 

“These are all the pictures that I’m approving for this month's magazine. Although, it’s not finalized, I still have a few decisions to make.” He began clicking through some of the images. 

“Am I in it?” 

“You wanna see?”

“Will I get in trouble for viewing unreleased content?”

Junhui just shrugged with a smirk on his face and scrolled down to the pages that Minghao’s photos would be on. Of course he looked absolutely stunning. All the photos were in black and white and he wore this wide brimmed black hat that made his little elf ears stand out. And he was wearing this dark blazer that was mostly buttoned up but left this open V down his chest revealing some skin and damn did he look good. 

“Wow, the set up looks nice.”

“That’s only because you’re the model.”

“Ha, yeah right, it’s the camera and the editing that does that.” Minghao sighed.

Junhui turned to look at Minghao.“I don’t believe that for one second because I’m looking at you right now, no camera, no editing and I think you look amazing.”

Minghao blushed with a small smile and turned back to the computer. “Have you approved my photos”

“Not quite yet. This one” He pointed to one in the bottom left corner, it was a close up with Minghao looking directly into the camera. “I can’t decide whether to keep this one, or” he changed the photo to one where Minghao is looking to the right showing off his amazing profile, “Or this one.”

“Hmm, tough decision.” He thought for a moment. He then leaned in even closer over Junhui, placing a hand on Junhui’s shoulder to stabilize himself as the other hand pointed to the screen. “Move this photo over here, enlarge this one and go with the picture showing my profile.”

Junhui did as told and made a few adjustments and to say he was impressed was a slight understatement. 

“Are you coming for my job? Are you gonna try editing the magazines?” He laughed. “That is very impressive.” 

Junhui then turned to look at Minghao only to come face to face with him, any closer and their noses might have brushed together. Junhui’s breath caught in his lungs. 

“Maybe I am coming for your job. You’re gonna have to keep an eye on me then.”

“I might just have to do that.” 

Suddenly Junhui’s office door bursts open and in comes Wonwoo. “He Jun you ready for-” 

Minghao and Junhui quickly separated and both of their faces became covered in a light dust of red. 

“Am I interrupting something?”
