"1 2 3 Cue!" 

"wow ~ looks like all couples have been made" MC Boom cheered

"Crayon Pop are you happy with your partners?" 

"ne ~~~" they all beamed satisfied each with their handsome partners while Suho was partnered with co-mc Park Jaemin

"Ellin-ssi, you look the most enthusiastic one here" Boom teased

"of course, I'm with Kai" obviously content with her choice

"Kai-ssi, are you happy with you're partner?will you be okay?" referring to you and whether you're okay with this show

"ah, ne ~ Rin-ah is being supportive and it's only a show hyung" making Ellin pout

"only a show? Kai, noona is very popular you should be thankful to be partnered with me" she joked causing the set to burst into laughter

"don't worry Kai, Ellin-ssi is always in her own world so there's no need for you or your family to worry" Boom continued to tease, causing more laughter "okay let's get to the game segment now~" he concluded and began explaining "first couple game is ..... dugun dugun dugn PEPERO GAME!" he exlciamed. A mixture of shy cheers and groans were heard.

"hyung ~ why do I have to be with this hyung for the game?!" Suho joked

"but aren't you the grandpa of the group Suho-ssi?" Jaemin asked. Feeling embarrassed Suho sacrificed himself to go first in the game "hyung ~ let's just get this over and done with" he pulls Jaemin closer to him

"Suho and Jaemin-ah, remember you have to make it at least 1 cm to win. If you can both go shorter then that then the better" Boom reminded

Meanwhile the show was being recorded you were behind the cameras helping Zelo set things up, neatly packing the microphones you had just replaced for exo. "Zelo-ah, how did you get a job here?" you asked curiously 

"mm, My uncle has some connections and since he wouldn't let my audition to become an idol yet he instead allowed me to work in this industry. It's not much but I'm somewhat closer to what I want to be in the future. What about you noona?" he asked sitting down to the empty seat next to you.

"well, I was training once to become an idol with Jongin but things happened and I took another path in life at an early age, but good for you. You're chasing after your dream and noona will support you and be your number one fan" you threw your fist in the air showing him your fighting spirit

"but noona, an idol? what were you training for?" he asked

"dancing. I 'used to' dance and sing a bit, but dancing was my specialty. Remember 'used to'" you emphasized on the past tense

"what sort of dance noona?" 

"I was training for all but I did ballet since I was 4 so .... it's more then 10 years but I've sort have stopped but it's okay my daughter is following after me" you reassured. 

"noona, I'll praise you from you from now on. You're the best" giving the thumbs up

While you and Zelo were getting comfortable and freely talking about random things, Jongin couldn't help but shift his attention from the recording to you and Zelo laughing every now and then. Unconsciously his fists were curling into a ball until Ellin interrupted his attention and pulled him to the center of the set. 

"Kai, just stay still. Noona will do it" it was finally their turn for the pepero game. Ellin was the variety star out of her group Crayon Pop, and he playful personality is what made her popular. 

"Kai-ssi, we wish you good luck. Should you send your wife a short message?" Boom suggested

"uh, Rin-ah. Don't misunderstand okay? this is just a a game, plus Ellin-ssi said it herself that all I have to do is stay still. Fighting~" he cheered and ended sweetly yup ~ that's my husband

"Oppa ~ you're making me look like I have bad intentions T_T" she whined 

"okay. Let's get this over and done with" Kai hurried making Ellin pout

Out of all the couples, this particular couple was the most anticipated. "ooooh she's coming closer!!!" the mc's teased

"oh, oh oh my gosh!!!" squeals were being heard

"0.7 cm HAHAHAH WOW" the mc's amazed

"they won!"

"Ellin-ssi, you should have seen how scared Kai was" Jaemin joked

"tsk at least he didn't make the move" you mumbled while watching the scene

"is noona jealous???" Zelo teased

"am not! tsk .... I'm just hungry now. Being pregnant isn't easy" you sighed

"pregnant?! why did you carry my stuff and help me then noona, you're suppose to be resting!?" he half yelled

"I'm only 2 months okay, I can still do stuff" you reassured

"what do you want I'll get it for you?" Zelo asked, standing up already

"uh anything with strawberries" you pleaded "okay noona, right away". In less then 10 minutes the namdonsaeng came back to the set and sat next to you with a bag full of treats, majority of them being strawberry flavoured

"you bought so much" you beamed at the bag of goodies 

"noona ... I didn't just buy it for you, I'm hungry to you know"

"NOW THE SECOND COUPLE GAME WILL BEGIN! the male partners will have to carry their partners and will have different tasks in between. So I can make yo
