"You look beautiful!"

Soo Hyun couldn't keep his eyes off Ye Ji, as he saw her appear from the changing room. There she was, dressed in a strapless Fall 2020 Alex Perry gown with a sexy scoop neckline. The corset-like fit of the bodice accentuated her slim ant-waist, while the high slit showed off a bit more skin and her long slender legs.

"But I don't feel so comfortable with the low neckline..." covering her bust as she talked.

"Yea" he quipped, "That's really for my eyes only. Is there something we can do with that?" Soo Hyun chuckled as he asked the stylist. Ye Ji glared at him, putting her index finger to her lips, signalling him to be quiet.

She cleared her throat and said "Yea, can we make some adjustments? I wouldn't want any accidents to happen, especially since I'd be alone this time."

She had so many worries. The last award ceremony - 56thBaeksang Art Awards, Soo Hyun was there with her, to make sure that her dress didn't get in her way, to support her when she needed. She loved that she could hook her arms on his as they walked to the stage, and his sturdy arms around her waist when they stood together until she was settled. This time, she was upset but more anxious that she would be alone for the award ceremony without her boyfriend.

"Yea, we could make some adjustments and put on some nipple stickers as well. Oh right, we can pair this with the Alexander Mcqueen Jacket if you are feeling cold during the ceremony," said the stylist.

After the adjustments were made, Ye Ji felt more at ease and that made Soo Hyun feel good too. After all, that was what he yearned for, for his girlfriend to feel happy. He picked up her hand and whispered "Are you okay with the gown now? We can still make changes if you still feel uncomfortable you know?" while caressing her hand. She gave him a little smile and said "It's okay, it's better now. We're running a little late, we should go." Soo Hyun could still sense her nervousness, but she was right, they didn't have much time left. He nodded and they said their goodbyes to the styling team as they walked out of the room.

He held her hand and intertwined his fingers with hers as they walked towards their car. There, manager Ryu and their driver were waiting for them. "Wow!" Manager Ryu exclaimed."That's going to turn some heads around..." "Hyung!" chides Soo Hyun. "I'd be counting on you to take care of her during the ceremony. Or else..."

"Or else I will get a flick on my forehead... Yes, I will, Mr Kim. How many times do you need to repeat that?" mumbles Manager Ryu. Ye Ji smiles and keeps her laughter in as she listens to their argument. She loved moments like this, when she felt protected by the love of her life, Kim Soo Hyun. Who would have thought that this Hallyu star would one day be someone she would rely on to heal her wounds, to find comfort in, to laugh with? 

With their hands still intertwined, he looked at her with loving eyes. Kim Soo Hyun was not wearing a fancy suit. His hair was not styled but kept in a baseball cap. This time round, he looked like just another person, staring at Actress Seo Ye Ji. He cupped his right hand on her cheek and whispered, "Baeu (Actress) Seo Ye Ji, you look stunning! You deserve the title of 'Popular Actress of the year'. I've worked with you and I know how capable you are. You deserve it!" Tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried to keep it in. She leaned her head towards his hand, tightened her grip on his other hand, and mouthed the words "Gomawo, naesalang" (Thank you, my love).

"Sorry to disturb you two lovebirds, but we are arriving," interrupted ManagerRyu. "We will take a short walk to the entrance as I wouldn't want anyone to notice or find out that Kim Soo Hyun is in the same car as Seo Ye Ji. So, we will have to inconvenience you for a bit."

"Fighting!" Soo Hyun said and pecked Ye Ji on her lips. "I will see you after the ceremony." 

Ye Ji nodded her head, adjusted her dress, and said a short prayer before proceeding out of the car. 


Note: 

This is the first time I'm writing a fanfic. Many times, these thoughts just float around in my mind, but I still can't get over Kim Soo Hyun and Seo Ye Ji's chemistry. And am totally FOR shipping them together after watching IOTNBO. So allow me to feed my delulu mind. I need a space to put my unending thoughts about Kim Soo Hyun and Seo Ye Ji. Hyunji Forever~

This is going to be a series of short stories of the day of the award. As I post this, I have 5 chapters that are ready to be posted, moving towards the end of the day. So, I would say this series may last 7 to 8 chapters.
