When did Dressing Room A become so stuffy? And quiet?

She called him crazy. Indeed, the behavior he displayed just now ratified the fact that Chanyeol was crazy feeling all these weird emotions for Ah Reum.

Chanyeol had always known his feelings at the back of his head, yet whatever he was feeling for Ah Reum, it was insane. It was a myriad of emotions directed towards one person, and that was for Ah Reum.

His feelings were a mess. There was a hint of confusion because it was never clear whether the publicist still had feelings for him, a huge amount of longing for Ah Reum's listening ear, an unexplained sulking feeling towards Ah Reum because she left the bed friend arrangement without a personal, proper goodbye, a strong, recurring need to apologize to her for saying that nobody loved Ah Reum,  and finally an unquenchable thirst for her. Perchance, Ah Reum's more mature clothing game was clinging to his bones. How could she not show skin and shake Chanyeol's insides at the same time? Maybe, it was the familiar fresh linen-apple shampoo scent that hit his nose when she drew near him. Or was it the craving to hear her succulent voice when she writhed under him? 

Enough of the lewd thoughts at ten in the morning. Back to the present.

"You know why I'm crazy?" Chanyeol asked, shocked at his own rough tone. Not releasing Ah Reum from his hold, he dug his fingers deeper in her waist.

"Let go. I do not need to know why you are acting strange." The woman repelled, and in one swift move, she detached herself from Chanyeol's touch.

"You ended the bed friend arrangement without any warnings. I thought you did not accept the post in Beijing because you had fallen for me? So what the hell, Ah Reum? What was that?" There he was again, saying what he wanted to say. Chanyeol never filtered his words anyway, and that made him a brutually honest man.

Chanyeol noticed Ah Reum fidgeting with her fingers. "You are correct, Chanyeol. I left unprofessionally. I apologize. if there is some way for me to pay a fee for that, then please e-mail me as soon as possible."

Oh right, this woman thought of him as her personal male e. The convenience guy, the 24/7 Booty Call Chanyeol. Did she think that money was the solution to settle their unfinished business? She must be kiddin'.

"I don't need your money, Miss Publicist. Maybe you could help me by answering the question, are you or are you not in love with me anymore?" 

That was pure, direct Park Chanyeol. There was no escaping from him this time. 

"This is awkward. I do not usually answer personal questions during business-"

"Oh please! For the love of Zeus, cut the whole business crap! Do you or do you not love me anymore, Moon Ah Reum?" Chanyeol angrily asked.

"I do not." She answered rather quickly and looked straight into his eyes. For some reason, Chanyeol's chest stopped moving when he heard the words from Ah Reum.

Just when he had started to like her...

"Then who?" Chanyeol questioned. He knew who; he just wanted to be a sadist and hear it from Ah Reum.

"You know who." was Ah Reum's simple answer, and off she left the room.

"Im Ji Hoon, you son of a btch." Chanyeol cursed under his breath.

What was supposedly a fun, rewarding celebration for finishing EXO's Lotto promotions became an aggravating and suffocating thing for Chanyeol. At the very moment, he could no longer figure out whether he liked Ah Reum or despised her.

He hated her ways. He loathed how Ah Reum could dismiss the thought of him in the span of four months, how she was acting like they never shared one bed a few months back, how she treated Chanyeol like a business deal, and how she stared at Ji Hoon the whole night.

Drinks were flowing, staff and EXO were dressed to the nines, and the place was ehem, "lit." Chanyeol gloomily stared at the humongous congratulatory banners for EXO for winning trophies for Lotto. Aish. This was not fun at all.

Props though, the vodka tasted divine when mixed with pomengranate juice, but screw the drinks. How could he live in the moment when all he saw that night was Im Ji Hoon secretly touching Ah Reum
