This is so stressful…

          You can do it! We all have faith in you

          Psh, two eighteen year olds running this project? This is some joke.

          Today was the day of the party and you had to admit, you were quite nervous. You sat infront of your vanity looking at yourself, What if I mess tonight up?  

          Letting out a big breath you shook your head, no today, you were going to come out as the heiress to KEY corp, you had to be an image of perfection. Your hair was being done in a bun while your makeup was being applied lightly by professionals. Hyeri sat next to you in her dress, her hair was being done in a side ponytail and her  eyes were closed as if to relax herself.

          "Are you ready?" she asked quietly.

          "Ready for.."

          "The announcement? This is going to be the first time in history where seven of  Asia's most influential families will be standing together on one stage" she said her voice quiet, as if she wanted no one to hear.

          "Eight" you muttered as your lipstick was being applied, "Mark will be joining us from L.A"

          "Mark as in.. Mark Tuan?" she asked. "Tuan as in Tuan Corp?"

          "In partnership to  KEY Corp? Mhm, we're cousins through our mom"

          "That is so cool. Tuan Corp is the shopping malls and you guys are the resorts and fashion. If you decided, you could basically open up a mall cross resort anytime"

          You looked at her from the corner of her eye, "Hmmm"

          Suddenly the door opened, and in walked the boys.

          "Dang" Sungjae said, "You girls are already pretty when you don’t get dolled up, but when you get dolled up you two are bea-u-ti-ful"

          You looked at Hyeri,  "Did he just?"

          "Dolled up Sungjae? Really?" Hyeri asked shaking her head. "Is it time already?"

          The boys nodded, all of them looking really good in their suits. They were all black but their ties and shirt colors were different.

          Minhyuks tie was red, with a black shirt while Hyunsik had a white shirt and turquoise tie, Sungjae had a black shirt and dark pink tie and to match Hyeri, Minhyuk had a white shirt and light pink tie.

          You couldn’t help but notice someone was missing. "Where's Ilhoon?"

          "His parents held him back for something, he should be here by the time we're ready to leave" Hyunsik said looking at his watch, "Which we should actually be doing now."

          You and Hyeri nodded thanking the makeup artists and you followed the boys out to the limo just as Ilhoon was walking up the drive way.

          As soon as you saw him your breath caught in your throat and your eyes widened, he was dressed in a black suit like the others but like Minhyuk, his shirt was black and his tie really stood out. You had to admit…he looked pretty hot.

          "Sorry guys, my parents just wanted to make sure of a few things before they left." He apologized and looked at you, his eyes widening.

          "Now, now Ilhoon, you know its rude to stare" Minhyuk said throwing a knowing look at Hyunsik who chuckled.

          "Yah Ilhoon, you might scare your date away" Sunjae said chuckling.

          Ilhoon shook his head and cleared his throat. "I don’t know what you guys are talking about, we should leave now, we're going to be late." He said and held his hand out so you could get into the limo.

          "Awe! Isn't that cute!?" Hyeri gushed to Peniel who smirked at Ilhoon.

          You shyly took his hand as you entered the limo and let out a breath. Tonight was going to a long night, it was going to be the start of your new future.

          "You seven are late!" your mother said running to you after you had arrived and looked around, "Where is my daughter?"

          "Right here Umma" you said sticking your head out between Hyunsik and Lay, "We figured it's best I not be seen till the announcement"

          Your mom raised and eyebrow, "And Ilhoon?"

          "Attached to her arm, Kim-nim" he said waving. "When is the announcement going  to happen? "

          "In about an hour, for now please go mingle and await. It wont be long. You all look very professional and beautiful today" she said before walking off in search of her husband.

          "Awe I'm blushing!" Peniel said gushing at the fact that your mom had called all of you beautiful.

          "Obviously the guy to girl ratio is higher, she should've said we were handsome" Hyunsik said fixing his tie. "Well guys, no time is better time than now, shall we?" he asked turning to look at all of you.

          "We shall" you said stepping out and Ilhoon looked at you from the corner of his eye.

          "Let's make tonight one to remember" he said offering you his arm.

          You gave him a tight smile, "Let's do it" and the seven of you walked into the already filled ballroom that filled a few of Asia and North America's top families.

          You managed to find a small table around near the refreshments area that gave you full view of the event.

          "So drinks anyone?" Peniel asked as a waiter passed by.

          "Ice tea" you and Hyeri chorused.

          "Coke" the rest said as the waiter nodded and walked off.

          "So the Lee's are here" Minhyuk said fixing his tie looking over at an old couple talking to his parents, "We just helped them get out of a class five lawsuit against their own son in law."

          "The Jung's are here as well," Hyeri said, "My parents have been trying to get a deal with them for ages" she rubbed her hands together, "Time to go play some magic." She looked at Peniel, "Shall we?"

          "Lets go" he said and lead her towards the young couple.

          "Hey isn't that…" Hyunsik started to point out and your eyes widened.

          No way, is this what your mom meant? Standing a few feet away from you were Logan Dupont, Lori Adams, Tristan McGreggor, Colin James and Stephanie Graham.

          "What are they doing here?" Minhyuk asked with a slight glare.

          "Well…they are a few of the top families in the States…it wouldn’t be a surprise" Ilhoon said looking directly at Logan and Lori who's hands seemed to be intertwined. "Eunyoung-ah"

          "Hmmm?" you asked shaking out of your daze to look at him.

          "Lets crush them" he muttered and a chill went down your spine. This was the first time you've ever heard Ilhoon say something like that. Normally he'd be monotone and only answer questions and only speak when needed, but for him to say something and sound so scary was a shock.

          "Lets do it" you said and looked at your mom who was standing on center stage with your dad. "It looks like it's almost time"

          And sure enough, your father had gotten everyone's attention and started to speak.

          "Good evening everyone, I want to welcome you to the Kim's second estate here in Korea. I want to welcome those who have come from overseas, I hope your accommodations are to your liking. I'm Kim Sung Ho and I'd like to introduce to you my wife, Kim Yumi"

          Your mom smiled at everyone as they clapped.

          "Tonight, is a celebration. I want to celebrate the moving of KEY Corp HQ to Seoul Korea, and I want to celebrate the announcements that will be made tonight. Tonight I will introduce to you all the heiress of KEY Corp. Will my daughter please join me on stage?"

          You in a breath as your dad acknowledged you, not many people knew who you were and you had a feeling many people thought you were just Ilhoon's for the night. Realizing you had to walk past Logan and his friends you looked at Ilhoon who offered his arm giving you a hidden smirk.

          Taking his arm, you heard many gasps, as the two of you walk towards the stage and right past Logan and the group without sparing them a glance.

          "Everyone, my daughter, Kim Eunyoung and her for tonight, Jung Ilhoon" your father introduced as people clapped  before speaking again, "Now, if I could get the following to join me on stage, I have a special announcement to make." He cleared his throat and called out names, "Lee Minhyuk, Lim Hyunsik, Yoo Hyeri, Shin Peniel, Mark Tuan, Yook Sungjae, and their families"

          Whispers broke out as the rest of your friends and cousin came to join you on stage.

          "Hmmm would you look at that" Minhyuk said coming to stand next to Ilhoon, "Eight children of the most prominent families in Asia, standing on the same stage for the first time…together"

          "Don’t forget the States" Hyunsik said fixing his tie, he eyed Mark, "I believe introductions will be made later"

          You nodded, "Of course" and you paid attention to your dad who had started speaking again.

          "Ladies and Gentleman, I would like to introduce to you, our children, as you know the Kim's were going to make a big announcement tonight" Shin Jiwon said to the crowd, "But we, the eight families have a big announcement to make tonight as well." He handed the mic to Sungjae's dad.

          "The eight people you see standing infront of you are our children, and we're blessed that the eight have worked so hard the last few years, as you know…" Sungjae's dad started droning on about a few of their successes in school before handing it off to each parent but you couldn’t help but look over in Logan and Lori's direction.

          Their faces held disbelief, Stephanie looked shocked, Colin and Tristan hid their emotions well. You were wondering about what was going to happen with the aftermath once you got off stage and the announcement was made. What would happen?

          "Now for the big announcement" Your dad said snapping back into reality. "The eight you see infront of you, we would all like to announce will be the Heir and Heiresses  to each company." Gasps were heard all over the room as others started to mutter, out of the eight people, five had older siblings who were expected to take over the companies. Flashes from camera's could be seen and reporters fighting to get to the front.

          After it died down your father continued " Lee Minhyuk and Lim Hyunsik will be taking over the partnership of L&L Firm when the time comes,Shin Peniel, a good friend of ours will be taking over the CEO position of his fathers department store company,  Yook Sungjae will be watching over future projects in his fathers place for new construction elements, Yoo Hyeri will be watching over future projects as CEO of Sakura Fashions and last but not least, Mark Tuan will be taking over Tuan Industries and department stores, Jung Ilhoon, and my daughter, Kim Eunyoung,  will all be starting their run as CEO's in training for our respective hotel chains." Your father finished and looked at the eight of you proudly and handed the mic to you.

          You were sure half the room was frozen at this point but with shaking hands you spoke.
