It’s been almost a week since the dating scandal broke out. People were still talking but thankfully, not as much as they did when the news first came out. Some fans were relieved while others were still not quite convinced that Himchan and Hyosung were no longer together. One thing for sure however, Himchan and CL were getting closer by the day even though they haven’t really got the chance to go out on a date yet. Well, CL was kind of playing hard to get – probably one of her ways to get back to him.

“Annyeonghaseyo, we are B.A.P! Yessir!” greeted the B.A.P members with their super manly voice in unison and bowed respectfully.

CL has invited the boys to their final concert and they were beyond happy and honoured to be able to come – especially Jongup. Bom and Dara were also very excited to see the B.A.P boys. Too excited, to be quite exact. They especially loved the maknaes – Jongup and Zelo. Both Bom and Dara couldn’t stop giggling and teasing the boys like a couple of pedonoonas.

CL and Minzy could only sigh and shake their heads at the childishness of their eonnies. “Sorry.” mouthed CL silently to Himchan, covering half of her face with her hand in embarrassment.

“It’s okay.” replied Himchan also silently, with a big smile on his face.

“Wassup!” shouted GD happily as he came in with the other Big Bang members following from behind.

One by one, they approached the 2NE1 ladies and hugged them. As expected, the two groups seemed to be really close to one another, almost like siblings. Himchan frowned a bit when he saw GD slung his hand over CL’s shoulders leisurely. He was actually jealous. GD noticed that Himchan was frowning and decided to break the ice.

“Hi, I’m G-Dragon. CL’s favourite oppa.” he introduced himself to Himchan with a smirk.

CL was a bit taken aback by GD’s last sentence that she elbowed him quite harshly. She knew that GD was teasing Himchan and she didn’t really like it. “Hi, I’m Kim Himchan. Chaerin’s one and only husband.” replied Himchan, also with a smirk, emphasizing each and every word of the last sentence.

“I like him already.” GD whispered, earning him a flick on the forehead.

“Whatever, oppa!” said CL, a bit annoyed; and Himchan just glared at CL and GD who were being too friendly to his liking.

“The show is starting in 15 minutes. You girls should get ready.” informed the manager.

And with that, the B.A.P members and YG Family were ushered by the staff towards the VIP area. To their surprise, there were also other idols present – including EXO’s Chanyeol, Kris, Luhan and Kai, Teen Top, Nu’est, Jay Park and also Kim Hyun Joong to name a few. B.A.P settled down at the same row where the EXO members were sitting and the two groups exchanged greetings and bows.

Halfway through the concert, fans were surprisingly still very hyped and energetic. There was no sign of exhaustion on their faces at all. Chanyeol and Jongup were no exceptions. The two somehow got to the front of the balcony – screaming their hearts out when their biases were close, singing and dancing along to almost all 2NE1 songs. The other B.A.P and EXO members just shook their heads and laughed at the two fanboys.

“They should get married.” said Kris jokingly, pointing at Chanyeol and Jongup; and the other boys nodded in agreement.

“I thought Jongup was the only crazy one. I guess I was wrong.” chuckled Youngjae.

“You should see Chanyeol hyung at home. It’s even worse than this!” said Kai, shaking his head and all the boys just laughed.

It’s finally CL’s solo performance. Himchan sat up straight and focused wholly on the stage, trying not to be too obvious at the same time. People were not yet aware of their marriage after all, so he always reminded himself to be extra careful whenever they were out in the public.

Kris suddenly got up and joined Chanyeol and Jongup at the front. He, too, began screaming like a crazy fanboy. Himchan’s eyes widened and he suddenly felt really nervous. ‘Oh please don’t tell me he’s a CL fanboy. Impossible.’ he thought. “I still couldn’t believe that you’re married to CL noona.” Zelo said as quietly as possible, breaking Himchan’s thoughts.

Himchan turned and gave Zelo a confused look. “What do you mean?” he asked, frowning.

“I mean she’s too badass for you. Look at her… she’s just full of swag. If anyone, I would’ve actually imagined her with GD sunbae. They would really make a great couple. They’re both just so badass.” chuckled Zelo, not realising that he has actually offended Himchan’s feelings.

“And I’m not badass enough?” asked Himchan with an irritated face. “You know what, you don’t need to answer that question.” he said firmly before heading out to take some fresh air.

“Way to go, Junhong!” said Daehyun sarcastically.

“What? I was just joking!” cried Zelo, still not realising what he has done.

“Well, you know how sensitive Himchan hyung can be. That was just too much, to be honest. I know that you’re only teasing him but you should know your limits.” lectured Daehyun and Zelo just sighed, feeling really guilty after finally realising what he did was actually wrong.

Himchan went to the basement parking area to clear his thoughts. He just wanted to be alone for a while. His mind was a mess. The images of Kris fanboying over CL and GD’s hand slinging leisurely over CL’s shoulders kept on flashing in his mind. Actually, this wasn’t the first time that he heard someone saying GD and CL making a great couple.

He couldn’t help but to kind of agree with what everyone has been saying. The two seemed to be really close to one another and they seemed to be comfortable with each other too. GD’s handsome, cute, badass, rich and a very multi-talented guy – any girl would be lucky to have him as her husband, especially CL. Himchan’s self-esteem was slowly going down the drain.

“I guess it’s true, CL and GD sunbae would really make a great couple.” sighed Himchan as he kicked some pebbles on the ground.

“Says who?” asked a man out of nowhere.

Himchan looked up to see where the voice was coming from. He was shocked to see GD standing just a couple metres away from him, with his arms crossed over his chest. “Says everyone!” replied Himchan frustratedly.

GD just laughed at Himchan’s statement. Himchan looked at him with confused eyes as GD slowly walked towards him. “You are too naïve for your age.” GD chuckled as he sling his arm around Himchan’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, dude. She’s just like a little sister to me. Nothing less and nothing more, if that’s what you’re worried about. Besides, Chaerin likes you. She likes you a lot actually.” GD added while dragging Himchan back into the stadium.

Himchan just looked at GD blankly. He really didn’t expect that GD would be there and hear everything he said, let alone GD telling him what CL’s feeling. “She was upset about that dating news thing, you know.” said GD again.

“She was?” asked Himchan, still confused.

“Yes, she was, you idiot! And I’m going to really kill you if you ever hurt her again next time!” replied GD with a neutral voice but he made sure that his message was sent across clearly.

“I-I won’t.” stuttered Himchan. “I promise I will try my best not to hurt her feelings ever again.” he continued.

“Good!” replied GD with a smile as he ruffled Himchan’s hair playfully.  

***

The concert ended after approximately two and a half hours. Some fans still lingered around the stadium, hoping to get a glance of 2NE1 as well as the other celebrities who attended the concert. The B.A.P members were invited to join 2NE1 and their staff for dinner so they had to be very careful not to raise any suspicion among the fans.

The two groups left the stadium separately. Himchan left first – he was driving his own car – followed by the other B.A.P members. And the 2NE1 members left the venue about half an hour after everyone left. Everyone gathered at Se7en’s chicken restaurant and it was closed for the night especially for 2NE1 and their friends.

“Anyone up for another round?” asked Dara excitedly after everyone has finished eating.

“Let’s go clubbing!” suggested Bom.

“Aren’t you even tired of dancing for two hours non stop?” asked one of the dancers.

“Nope! And the night is still young!” replied Bom, half sober.

“I’m afraid I’m going to have to bail on this one. Sorry, eonnie.” said CL, surprising everyone.

CL’s not really a club person but she has never really turned down an invite to go clubbing, especially with YG Family. Everyone looked at her, stunned. “I’m just tired okay? Besides, half of these boys are not even old enough to go clubbing. Minzy too!” said CL with a firm voice while pointing at Zelo and Jongup.

“That’s actually true.” Yongguk nodded in agreement. “We would really love to spend more time with everyone but I’m afraid we have to say no this time. We have to go back to the studio first thing tomorrow morning.” he continued.

“Back to the studio?” CL mumbled, looking at Himchan.

“Okay, looks like someone’s going to have another married couple argument~” teased Bommie.

“Whatever, eonnie. We’re going home now. See you guys tomorrow!” said CL, bowing to everyone before leaving.

Himchan said his goodbyes to the other B.A.P members as he opened the car door for CL. “Dude, I appreciate you being a gentleman but you’re being too obvious!” said CL as she signalled him to get in the car straight away before anyone could see them.

Himchan and CL were awkwardly quiet along their way home. Maybe because CL was really tired. Or maybe because they both were really nervous. It was actually their first time in a car together. Alone. Yes, they’ve spent some time alone in their apartment but being trapped in a car is another different story.

“So I heard you had a little talk with Jiyong oppa.” CL finally broke the silence.

“Uhh… y-yeah.” stuttered Himchan.

“So, what did oppa say? He didn’t threaten you, did he?” asked CL.

“Well, he kind of did. But I understand, he was just being a protective older brother.” replied Himchan, his eyes focused on the road. “But…”

“But what?” asked CL with a firm tone.

“I don’t like it when you call him oppa. You don’t even call me oppa!” Himchan pouted his mouth cutely at CL and she couldn’t help but to giggle at his cuteness.

“That’s because he’s so much older than me, pabo!” replied CL as she poked his waist jokingly.

“Okay~ Whatever~” Himchan shifted his focus back to the road but still pouting his lips.

“Are you… jealous?” asked CL excitedly.

“Me? Jealous? What? Nooooo~” scoffed Himchan, trying not to get caught.

“Oh my God, you are jealous! Channie is jealous~ Channie is jealous~” CL started to chan, poking his waist and cheeks repeatedly.

“You need to stop doing that or you would get us both killed!” said Himchan as he shoved her hands away. “Oh, we’re here!” he sounded a bit surprised.

Funny, Himchan didn’t even realise that they have actually reached their apartment building. He immediately ran towards CL’s side and opened the door for her. “Such a gentleman.” CL said with a smile.

“Just cause you’re my lady.” he replied with a wink.

Himchan and CL were about to get in the building when a girl suddenly screamed his name loudly. Both of them turned to look at the source of the voice and their eyes suddenly widened.

“What are you doing here? Are you drunk?” asked Himchan, rather irritated than concerned.
