Okay, she understands his ogling now, the woman ahead of her looks vivacious and coquettish. Her hair is silky and bounces playfully to each gracious step she takes. drops as she realizes towards whom the vixen is walking towards. Beautiful, perfect Nichkhun. They are too far away to hear, but it’s obvious that they share a conversation. Her hand touches her neck before she tugs a defiant wisp of hair back behind her ear. Sohee gasps, how can a simple, maybe even subconscious, movement like this look so sensual? Her stomach drops. She feels as if she is about to witness something obscene. There is this shaky insecurity growing in her, that maybe it hasn’t been such a good idea to come after all. Definitely, she isn’t ready to stomach the truth. But it’s like an accident, even if she wants to close her eyes and turn away she can’t. She is absolutely frozen in curiosity and shock.
The room suddenly becomes colder but her head keeps spinning and her eyes are burning. She should blink.
The woman takes Nichkhuns wrist, probably smiling at him. Sohee can’t tell as she is standing with her back turned towards her. Wait no, not anymore. She is turning now. Walking, widely beaming, towards her. She knows she should do something, hide at least, or turn away, but all she can do is stare as the couple approaches them. Wait, couple? No, they were not! They couldn’t be! She wears a ring on her finger that very much says otherwise. She wants to yell at this outrageous person and she is ready to fight. Except that her vision suddenly changes and she is up close with another set of eyes and more importantly lips.

She isn’t the only one who has watched the pair. In contrary to the almost steaming little loco next to him, he hasn’t seen yet something worry-worthy. Despite the fact that he is usually the overprotective and jealous type. Obviously, he isn’t fond of his girlfriend being all flirty and smiley with someone else. But he is also old enough to know that this is as much part of her job as it is his to deal with sometimes rather shady people he would wish he doesn't need to do business with. It sounds laughable maybe even silly out of his mouth, but he trusts her (yes, despite stalking her). More importantly, he believes in her hopefully better taste than this muscle douche on two legs. In spite of his own misery, he hasn’t lost his touch to reality, and grasps the dilemma he is bound to face if he doesn’t react now. Hiding? Too late and also impossible as it only makes him even more suspicious. Encounter her with the words, “Surprise Baby, I have changed my mind.” Possible, but he isn’t willing to blow up his cover yet. Also, his girlfriend is smart, he is pretty sure she would see behind the façade in an instant. And he really isn’t keen of another fight or worst more tears today. Therefore there is only one option left; he has to hide his face.

The next thing Sohee knows is the feeling of warm and humid fingers pushing her chin uncomfortable upwards and then sticky lips against her own. Does he use balm, or is it due to her lipstick? She can’t recall when she has kissed someone the last time while wearing lipstick. Nichkhun hates the taste and feeling of it, and favors her natural lip color, hence she hasn’t even applied anything at her wedding day. It struck her as weird, right now. The things one does for love…

His steps forward to the next available person, and it is an unhappy coincidence or possible karma for blocking that old lady today, but it has to be this crazy cat-eye girly from before. There is no time to be picky. He tenderly puts his fingers gently on her chin just to pull her head a little upward and be able to comfortably press his lips onto hers. His thoughts from before must be a spot- on, as she doesn't seem to mind him approaching her. It's a pity; no woman should sell herself so low and cheap for anyone, he thinks while he pursues to deepen the kiss. Instead, she just persisted. Jesus, hasn’t she kissed anyone before? If he would be single he might have given her a free lesson on kissing right now. But aside from staying faithful he also isn’t brave enough to risk a tongue or lip injury. Because yes he is positive that she suddenly follows an urge and bites him furiously and this would be a little awkward to explain to his girlfriend. Even if she always had been pretty open, and probably would be laughing at the story, while still being a little huffy. Quite right.

Just some more seconds, he counts them in his head to distract himself. Hearing the familiar giggle approaching while being stuck in such an ambiguous situation is, to say at least, thrilling.
Luckily they are not after a drink and are too lost in their casual conversation to spare a glance at them. They pass not a second too early as sharp pain almost causes him to drop the tablet he is still balancing. Holding it with his free, not occupied hand, as far away as possible from their close bodies. By now only a few still contain bubbly liquid, well disguised between the empty glasses. He has been right about that, and also that the woman in front of him is indeed unpredictable. She has just kicked him!
He looks at her displeased, but nonetheless cheeky; after all, it took her a while to shake him off. So she must have enjoyed it. Not surprising, he is handsome, and not that he means to brag but he
