"We're here." Mr. Jung said. And like at the previous mansion, Jeonghan's face was glued to the window when he saw his new house.

Jeonghan and Seungcheol stood side by side in front of the villa-like mansion. Jeonghan eyed the whole building, top to bottom, left to right.

"W-We are staying here?" Jeonghan swallowed as he asked the Prince who gave off a cold aura.

"Yeah. Why? Is it not big enough for you? I can have them build a bigger one." Seungcheol asked casually.

"What? Not big enough? Your highness. I must work at the bar, even in my afterlife after I die if I ever wanted to afford a house like that. " Jeonghan retaliated after hearing the Seungcheol's response.

The prince just shrugged and entered the house himself. Jeonghan's jaw drops at the sight of the inside of his house. It was just the entrance. And there he saw the living room. Gosh, it was gorgeous. It is so much better than what Jeonghan expected. Is he really going to be living here? He was flustered. He felt his stomach churn. He doesn't deserve all this. What did he even do in his past life to be able to live in such a huge living space?

"Want to see your room?" Seungcheol asked as he walked. They went up the stairs and realized something. There were 4 floors in this house. 

By the time the two were at the top floor where their rooms were, Jeonghane was panting as though he just ran a marathon. Seungcheol just stared at the boy who was trailing behind him.

"I swear, you need more exercise. You look like you're about to pass out. Its only four floors you know?" Seungcheol commented and made his way to the rooms without even looking back at the boy. Jeonghan just frowned and tried to catch up with him. Jeonghan realized as he was walking up the stairs, the corridors had other doors that led to different rooms and of course, Jeonghan was curious about what was behind these doors. He made a mental note to visit the other rooms once he gets settled in. He noticed that only the fourth floor had only 2 doors unlike the other floors, One on the left and another on the right. Seungcheol went to the door on the left and opened the door and the oblivious long-haired boy followed. But when Jeonghan was about to enter, Seungcheol pushed the boy's forehead lightly.

"Your room is the one on the right." He said coldly.

"O-oh... I thought we were sleeping in the same room..." Jeonghan said softly.

Seungcheol then lowered his face so that it was just inches away from Jeonghan's and smirk.

"We can if that's what you want..." and immediately Jeonghan's cheeks turned red. He turned around and went into his new room and closed the door, covering his face. He leaned against the door.

Did the prince just do that to him? Jeonghan felt so flustered and a little annoyed.

But that feeling was immediately forgotten when he put down his hands and saw his surroundings.

His room was huge! His jaws dropped and he stood up and walked around, looking around everything. This was practical twice the size of his room at his old apartment!

The walls were painted baby blue. There was a queen-sized bed at the end of the room. Shelves and a long study table and a computer. There was a sofa in the middle and... A 110-inch flat-screen HDTV! Jeonghan was so happy! He could cry.

He went to his bed and jumped into it and soaked in the soft and comfy feeling. Ahh... He could sleep here forever. He closed his eyes in content.

After soaking in the essence of the bed, he sat up and looked for a clock, because he wanted to know the time. He then spotted a 'Kitty clock'(Jeonghan's own words), where it was a cat-shaped like a kitty. It was almost midnight. He then quickly got back up and continued to explore his room.

Wait... If this place is so big, it should have a built-in toilet, right? He saw two doors. He tried his luck on one of it and then, the jaw-dropping began again.

The door that Jeonghan opened wasn't what he thought it would be. It was a walk-in closet. With all the clothes in Jeonghan's suitcase, it would not even fill one-fourth of the closet. Jeonghan then realized, his suitcase isn't here yet. He gave it some thought and decided to let a servant do it instead since he was feeling tired. Or more like lazy.

He heard a knocking on the door and went to open it. 'It's probably the servant with my stuff.' But when he opened it, there he saw the almighty Prince Choi Seungcheol, standing at the door holding onto all his stuff.

He then suddenly started to feel scared. Did he just make the prince get his things? He should have gone down to collect his stuff himself instead of waiting for someone to get it for him. Jeonghan didn't want to appear spoiled just because he's now married to the prince. He should have thought it through before deciding to go with his feelings when he felt lazy.

"I-I'm sorry..." He avoided eye contact with the Prince who was staring at him, a little confused.

"Never am I gonna help you get your stuff anymore," Seungcheol said, obvious that he was a little bit irritated by this. He walks in, passing the long-haired boy who just stood there in guilt.

The Prince put down his stuff near the sofa and sat on the sofa.

Before Jeonghan could reply, he signaled the boy to come over. There he asked Jeonghan to seat beside him. And of course, Jeonghan sat at the far end on the sofa.

"Anyway, before you sleep tonight, just an update on what we have to do tomorrow." Jeonghan just sat there obediently listening.

"We have to file our marriage document in the morning. Then we are going to meet my parents for lunch after that." 'WHAT? Meet the parents? The King and Queen of Korea?' Jeonghan felt his hair stand when Seungcheol said 'my parents'. 'What's going to happen? What if they didn't like him. 'What if I screw it up? What if after that meeting they disapprove of me and I don't marry Mr Rich man of Korea. Wait... Maybe that is a good thing. This means I may have a chance with the masked rapper. But what if after they disapprove of me, they kill me. What if-'

"Yoon Jeonghan." Seungcheol shook him out of his thought.

"Y-Yes yes..."

"I asked if you were okay with the plans tomorrow?"

"Yes..." Jeonghan nodded nervously.

"Alright then." Seungcheol stood up and looked at Jeonghan. Jeonghan's face was pale and he felt that sense of restlessness just washes over him.

"You look tired, Jeonghan. Go wash up then rest. I'll get one of the servants to wake you up tomorrow." Seungcheol walked towards the door and closed it behind him without any further thought or comment.

Jeonghan was worried. His head was filled with the 'what ifs' and thinking of the worst-case scenario to what's going to happen. These thoughts lingered as he went to brush his teeth and prepare for bed.

He laid on his bed and switched off the lights. 'Aish... Stop thinking Jeonghan. You can do it.' He closed his eyes and trying to get himself to relax.

He kept reminding himself that it may not be a bad thing if the King and Queen disapprove of him because he doesn't love Seungcheol and it also means having a chance to ask the Masked Rapper out. He replayed this thought like a mantra, just to get himself to relax and fall asleep. However that all changed when a notification popped out from his phone. It was an Instagram post from the masked rapper. He posted something. And of course, Jeonghan would rush and see the post.

There he saw, it was a picture of the Masked Rapper's mask. It was a monochrome picture. And there in the description, it wrote:

"Whatever you do, you don't have to be more. Be yourself. And behind that masked, that's me."

It was vague but Jeonghan knew what he was talking about. He immediately took that caption into his head and it immediately made him thought about tomorrow. The masked Rapper was right. Whatever is going to happen and whatever Jeonghan does, be it meet his parents or the King and Queen of Korea, all he needs is to be himself.

'Wow... What a coincidence.' Jeonghan realizes. He couldn't believe one of the Masked Rapper's posts could help him, calm his mind. Was the mask rapper going through something like this now? Is that why he is posting such things to remind himself? Or is he helping someone who is going through a similar situation?

Jeonghan sighed. 'You don't know how much I needed to know that' 

And with that (again), Jeonghan laid back on his bed with a smile on his face, he closed his eyes and slept peacefully.

 

-

 

"Jeonghannie, come here" he signaled. He held out a hand towards Jeonghan.

"Masked Rapper?" Jeonghan said. "Is that really you?"

"Yes. Jeonghan-ah. I have something I want to tell you." The masked rapper said as he held both of Jeonghan's hands.

"I've seen you at every of my performance. And it really makes me happy and it motivates me to do better for my performance." He started to caress Jeonghan's hands with his thumb, running over his knuckles.

Jeonghan couldn't help but blush and tried to control his smile.

"I-I'm... I'm glad..." He said in reply as he avoided eye-contact with the rapper, because he was feeling shy.

"And... I just want to say, I really like you and would like to bring you out on a date." The rapper said and waited for Jeonghan's response.

"I would like that very much." Jeonghan bit his lips, trying to control himself. He was so happy.

"But before we do that, I think it's best that I show you who I really am." So, he let go of Jeonghan's hands and untied the string that was holding the mask to his face. Slowly, bit by bit, his face was revealed.

"W-What..." Jeonghan's face changed. His eyes were left wide open and jaws that were almost touching the ground.

"Yeah... It's me Jeonghan." There stood the prince of Korea, Choi Seungcheol.

"N-No... This can't be happening. No... No... Noooooooooooooooo...." Jeonghan screamed.

Jeonghan shot up from his bed immediately and sat up, trembling a little. There in front of him stood was a servant, who looked a little shook from his actions. He was covered in sweat and he was jittery.

"T-Thank God it was just a dream." He mumbled under his breath.

The servant gave him a blanked but concern look, he then immediately changed his expression and immediately said, "Quickly wash up and prepare, Your Highness is downstairs waiting for you. He said that after breakfast they'll head off straight to do the registration."

Jeonghan just nodded and went to prepare himself. There he entered the bathroom, then he thought, the first decision he must make first thing in the morning. Should he just use the showerhead to take a shower or take a soothing bath in the bathtub?

Jeonghan facepalmed. Is he that skeptical about his day that he needs to think about whether to take a soothing bath or shower? The freaking prince of Korea is downstairs already waiting for him and yet he is still here deciding. The boy quickly went to take a quick shower and put on some hoodie and jeans.

When he looked at himself in front of the mirror, he then felt insecure. He is going to meet the King and Queen later. He should wear something more formal. Right?

So, he quickly changed and went out of his room and down the stairs. However, as he made the turn to go down the last flight of stairs, there he saw the prince. Sitting by the sofa wearing a simple tee and a hoodie jacket. The prince looked a little impatient as he was using his phone.

He looked at how he was dressed and felt insecure again. Damn those thoughts. He then rushed up and wore his blue hoodie and came down as quickly as he could, almost tripping when he came down the stairs. He then slowed down his movement and stood to the side where Seungcheol was sitting. He could feel that cold aura getting stronger when he slowly approached the Prince.

"Y-Your Highness..." Jeonghan greeted as he avoided eye contact with the Prince. Jeonghan held his breath as he prepared to receive a scolding for keeping the Prince waiting.

"We have 10 minutes to eat. There's food in the dining area." Seungcheol said coldly, not even bothered to take a glance at Jeonghan. The Prince stood up and walked past the boy.

'Wait. The Prince isn't angry, is he? He doesn't sound angry.'

"By the way, you should cut that hair of yours. You look like a mess." Jeonghan just glared at him and followed the Prince.

"But I like my hair long," Jeonghan replied, while rolling his eyes. "Why not try it. Maybe you'll like it."

"Nah... I'm already handsome." 'Psht... Narcissistic ...', Jeonghan rolled his eyes again. 'I thought the prince was all cold and mysterious. But I was wrong. He is egoistic as hell too.' Jeonghan just frowned and took his seat opposite the prince and waited for the servants to serve the food.

Jeonghan ran his fingers over his phone and unlocked it. Planning to scroll through SNS and Instagram and ask.fm again. Even though the environment around Jeonghan has changed, Jeonghan's daily habitual routines will never change.

There he saw a post from 10 minutes ago. It was posted by the masked rapper.

"Good morning everybody! ^^ I hope ya'll slept well! Have a great day and remember to have your breakfast!"

Jeonghan couldn't help but smile. How sweet. This early in the morning, the masked rapper can be such a sweet guy. Jeonghan felt soft. He was really Jeonghan's ideal type. Jeonghan's ideal type (which he declared to Jisoo and Seokmin when he was in the last year of Middle school) was someone who was cool (had a cool aura off him), a little mysterious but kind and sweet. Even though his face is covered by a mask, he was still someone kind and sweet and of course, the mask made him seemed mysterious.

While Jeonghan was busy daydreaming about the sweet caption his crush posted, Seungcheol's eyes were on the boy. He just scoffed a little and shake his head, when he saw how the boy was acting. He looked like one of those fangirls looking at their Oppa playing with a cute little doggy.

"You have 4 minutes to eat. What are you looking at?" Seungcheol asked coldly.

"Not you that is..." Jeonghan replied, not bothering to look up at the prince, he quickly gobbled up his food and by the time the pair had to leave, all that's left on Jeonghan's plate was the cucumbers and cherry tomatoes.

"Ah, before I forget," Seungcheol spoke up, he asked for his table to be cleared and called for Jeonghan's attention.

"Jeonghan-ssi. I have someone to introduce you to." With a clap of Seungcheol's hand, a boy a little smaller than Jeonghan appeared before them.

"This is Seungkwan. He will be your personal servant starting today. He will follow you wherever you go and he will protect you when you are in danger. He may look as punier and as weak as you, but he is one of the top guards I have. If there is anything you need, do seek him for it. " He said presenting the new guard.

Jeonghan blinked as he stared at the guard. He looked strangely familiar... Wait... Isn't he the servant that woke him up this morning?

When Jeonghan made eye-contact with him, he immediately diverted his eye contact and looked at the ground.

"And Jeonghan-ssi, if he does cause you any problems like if messes up or if he doesn't do his job well, feel free to tell me," Seungcheol said.

Jeonghan eyed the bow top to bottom, the servant looked pretty young. Probably their age. Jeonghan could tell, that Seungkwan was afraid of the prince. Did the Prince threaten him or something? And he could tell that the boy was trying his best to not screw up. 

Well. Jeonghan knew he shouldn't judge the boy, just by what the Prince had prescribed him to be. I mean, he got irritated when Jeonghan screwed up a couple of instances, just by Jeonghan's defendant's statement to stand up for himself. So maybe that servant wouldn't be so bad as he would have thought.

Seungcheol suddenly stood up after wiping his mouth.

"Let's go Yoon Jeonghan." He said, walking out the door with Mr. Jung opening the door for him. There Jeonghan quickly wiped his mouth and followed behind him like an innocent child following a stranger. Then there's Seungkwan who also followed being like a duckling following its mother.
