It was a strange thing, but whilst in their shared bedroom, Henry and Amber acted like they weren't a couple. They changed - Henry still hiding his slim body under the bed sheet - and slipped into their respective beds.
"Um...goodnight," Amber called, lying her head down slowly. Part of her wanted to stay up and talk, but it was an unspoken rule. No dating in the bedroom.
Again and again, she would come back to that thought. They hadn't had to sign anything, no non-dating contracts or useless stuff like that. They'd been advised to keep it on the down-low, that's all.
And yet, she and her boyfriend has forced themselves to keep their kisses away. Amber knew Henry was shy. But this was ridiculous.
In the other bed, Henry was hugging himself. He rubbed his cold feet together, pleased with himself.
Still a little annoyed with himself he didn't initiate the kiss, though.

"Now, let's reveal some members' secrets!" The host of a popular chat show was sitting on a squishy chair whilst D.O.T were squashed, half onto each other's laps, on a green sofa.
Baekhyun smiled widely and began talking about Onew's cooking skills. Amber rolled her eyes, pretending to massage her shoulder as she fixed her bra strap. Henry put an arm around her.
"I'm sorry if my cooking offends you," Onew said cheerfully, raising his hands. "I will reveal about...Key."
Key rolled his eyes.
"Key spends a very long time on his hair - sometimes he is late for practice because of it."
"That's not very juicy gossip," Amber found herself saying. Henry jumped slightly. "I want to reveal a secret about Henry."
Henry blushed. She could say any number of things about him...
"Henry is shy about his looks," Amber explained, placing a steadying hand on Henry's thigh. "He shouldn't be, because he is very handsome."
"Thank you, Alex," the host said. "Before we move on from you, our viewers have sent in a question about you. 'How does Alex feel about being compared in looks to Jonghyun from Shine-Z?'"
Key gave a barely audible giggle. Chen flashed him a grin - he very much shipped JongKey.
Henry barely paid attention to anything else in the interview. All he could think was: Amber gave me a compliment on television!
