THIRD PERSON

Yeji slowly steps back from the two, giving them space. She walks back to the others as a smirk tugs on her lips, causing the other members to glance at her suspiciously, "Did you call him here?" Yuna's question makes her snort. "You wish." she mumbles. She looks at her phone, expecting a call; and she's right. After a few seconds of staring at her phone, it rang and showed the caller's ID. She grabs the device and swipes up, "What is it?" she monotonously asks.

"Is Beomgyu at your guys' dorm?"

A smile appears on her face, "Yeah, why'd you ask?"

"Nothing, he just shut me up and barged out earlier."

Yeji chuckles and glances at her fellow members, they keep giving her teasing smiles and puckering their lips as if to signal something to her. She scowls at them and turns to Ryujin and Beomgyu who are both still standing in front of the door, with a motherly smile on her face, she mutters. "They're crying."

"Wait, what? They? Who is 'they'?"

Yeonjun's questions makes her laugh, "Who else?" she asks, still looking at the two idols' direction. Before she could head into her room, "Unnie," Chaeryeong calls the elder girl with a soft voice. Yeji hums as she turns her head to the girl, "Can I go out?" she asks, an innocent smile on her face as if to deceive the elder. "Why are you asking me? Mr. Kang is up to that.."

"But I just.."

Yeji heaves a sigh as she pulls the phone away from her ear for a moment, "You got my consent, you should ask for oppa's permission now." she smiles when Chaeryeong happily skips to her room while humming to a song. "And who's 'oppa'!?"

Yeji cocks an eyebrow and puts the phone back on her ear, "What?" she questions. "Who did you call 'oppa'?" She shakes her head at the boy's behaviour, "Our manager, Mr. Kang." she answers, walking towards her room. "I'm a little embarrassed, but you can only call me 'oppa'. Not your manager, not anyone else." he says, making Yeji blush at his words.

"Anyway, when are we meeting again?" Yeji shrugs her shoulders, but quickly realizes that he couldn't see her. "I don't know, either." she replies. "Ah, okay.. Do you still want to talk?"

. . .

Beomgyu smiles and gently wipes the tears off of Ryujin's cheeks, making sure to look at her in the eye. A soft chuckle escapes from his lips, causing Ryujin to frown at him. "Why are you laughing?" she asks, almost as if she was offended. Beomgyu just shakes his head at her question and leaves a kiss on the girl's forehead, "You came all the way here just to tell me that?" she questions.

He purses his lips into a thin line as he nods, "Yeah, it's important. More important than anything right now." he replies, giving her the sweetest smile he could give. Ryujin smiles back before hiding her face in her palms, embarrassed at the way she was crying a river. Beomgyu laughs and wraps his arms around the girl once again, "So, now.." he trails, resting his chin on top of her head.

"We're good, right?"

The next day, Beomgyu arrives at the KBS building with a huge grin on his face. This time, instead of going alone, he goes with Soobin for some support. The two step out of the van and was immediately greeted by the big building, the gate is halfway open to welcome them in and another black van parked beside theirs. Both boys turn to the other van, the younger one instantly smiles as he sees Ryujin peering out the window.

Beomgyu walks towards the girl and lends a hand for her to get out, "We're in public, Beom." she reminded, but took hold of his hand, anyway. Beomgyu snorts as he glances around, "There's literally no one here, it's fine." he answers and smiles at her. Their eyes suddenly met with Soobin's widened and questioning eyes, "Since when did this happen?" asks the elder boy. They both immediately let go of each others' hands and deny, "Nothing happened, Soobin." Ryujin says, trying her best to convince him.

Soobin only shakes his head with a small smile on his face, "Sure, sure. I'll pretend I didn't see what just happened." Ryujin and Beomgyu mentally curse as they walk past the taller one.

. . .

Beomgyu scowls as he felt a small pair of hands wrap around his forearm, he knows very well that this is a female; the girl whom he doesn't want to see. He snaps his head towards the girl, "Let go now." he commands, keeping his cool but the girl only tightens her grip on his arm. "I won't, unless we talk."

He clenches his fists at the girl's behaviour and grits his teeth, clearly not comfortable with the contact. He gently pulls her hands off of his arm, making sure to glare at her with the coldest look. "I said no. What do you not understand from that?" he sternly questions, keeping a stoic look on his face. "I don't understand why we can't just talk this one out!" she exclaims.

Beomgyu's eyebrows furrow as she grabs onto his arm once again, "Please, just for a minute, Beomgyu." she pleads, desperate to at least speak a word. "No means no. I thought I said I don't want to hear another word coming from you." he watches as her expression darkens. "And I thought I said I want to talk to you."

"It does not work that way, Yiren."

He muttered, slowly losing his patience as the girl keeps demanding. Yiren, too, was slowly losing patience and she knows where this would lead to. "Leave me alone, Yiren."

"Beomgyu-ssi, we're going live in 5 minutes. PD-nim is searching for you." a voice from outside the room asked, catching their attention. Yiren turns to the door at the familiar voice, "What a perfect timing!" she whispers and smirks at the door. She faces Beomgyu and slaps herself across the face, creating a sharp sound. "Beomgyu?" the voice called.

Yiren slowly lifts her head up to look at him with a sinister smile before she let out a fake cry, "I just wanted to talk!" she yelled, causing the person outside to barge in, worriedly. "What did you do?!" the male idol shouted and immediately crouched down next to Yiren, holding her shoulder. Beomgyu's eyes twitched at what the girl had done, "She did that to herself." he angrily mumbled.

Haechan swiftly lifts Yiren up and hooks an arm around her waist, holding her up. "I knew it, you're a sick person. Hurting girls? Wow, just.." Beomgyu runs a hand through his hair in frustration. "I said I didn't do it, she did it to herself!" he defended, furious at the girl. Haechan shakes his head as he walks out the door, "Stay away from us."
