A Kiss

Jaehyun's panicking, Director Byun insisted that he should sit next to Johnny on the plane, Taeyong gave him a look before they parted ways, his manager will have to sit with Johnny's manager. Johnny hasn't spoken a word yet as they walked to board the plane, maybe Jaehyun is just too awkward, maybe he smells really bad right now, Johnny finally started a conversation when they were finally seated. "I have an extra cookie from the lounge, do you want it?" Johnny smiled so politely, Jaehyun's heart was thumping.

"U-umm, of course, t-thank you hyung" Johnny just smiled politely, Jaehyun's heart and mind were both racing at the same time.

"Hey Jae, do you have any acting experience?" Johnny asked him, he was now polite enough to not munch in the cookie.

"I was in a music video, but I don't think it's acting because I was only for the visuals of the song and I never had a line-"

"You see, there are ways on how to get better in acting, I started my career through method acting" Johnny explained, setting his trap.

"What's method acting?" Jaehyun, a deer in the headlights, has taken a wrong route.

"It's when you emphatize with the character, for example, from today I will be Mingyu, I will act as how Mingyu would, I will portray him as if I am him" Johnny is just waiting for the bite at this point.

"So...you mean, in order to become better, I should start thinking and acting like Jihoon?" Jaehyun was a little bit confused, but Johnny nodded, cupping his cheeks.

"Aren't you a smart little one, Jihoonie?" It was kind of scary, being called someone that he's not. Johnny's eyes looked different, not some weird supernatural shit, but the way he looked at Jaehyun and the way he sat is full of confidence, as if...he was talking to the most popular basketball player in the school, Mingyu.

"You are really amazing hyung"

"Well, since we will be roommates, we should practice from time to time, hm?" As Jaehyun nodded, Johnny was sure enough that he's locked on him.

Johnny is not evil, he's just doing it for his career, yes, he may have played with people's feelings, but his movies and dramas were all a hit, method acting is something he learned while growing up, the best way to look natural and do the best is to become the character, although method acting is mostly used by theater actors, it worked for him and almost all of his celebrity co-star flings. Surely it will work on a newbie actor like Jaehyun. He's just bored, that is all, playing with people does not mean he is hurting them, he always uses "method acting" to break ties with people. They are just acting, it's not the real thing. They arrived early in the morning, around 2am and everyone will stay on a hotel/resort with an oceanview. Most actors will be roommates just like Johnny and Jaehyun, they really wanted to bring out the chemistry on everyone. Although a threat is looming as Gongmyung is eyeing the same doll.

"Ah hyung, the first shoot will be a lab scene, Jihoon teaching Mingyu chemistry" Jaehyun read through, lying down on his bed without unpacking his things.

"You mean, YOU, Jihoon, will teach me, Mingyu, Chemistry" Johnny smirked, Jaehyun's cheeks reddened.

"Y-yeah...Mingyu" Jaehyun felt weird, it's like he's talking to someone else.

Johnny continued to ignore Jaehyun as how Mingyu did to Jihoon, it was the cool guy and the nerd's tragic love story. "Good night Johnny hyung" Jaehyun whispered after finishing up his shower and unpacking. Johnny was so used to method acting, it felt natural, he can snap in and out of character, a true professional as critics would say. So when the cast arrived on the location, it was a cold spring morning, it was still a bit cold so most people still wore padded jackets.
