"one of my- uh.. editors, insists on dropping a couples news in two weeks time, I am afraid I should let you and JYP know about this."

"Uh- what news?"

"A news about you and Jeongyeon" JYP interrupted

"wait.. What?!"

"We've been following you and Jeongyeon around Ms. Miyoui, and we know that ICEY's Jeongyeon and you are dat-"

"no. no.no.? Yo-you must be mistaken, Jeongyeon and I-"
"I understand. This secrecy is between us, however, this is a huge story to intake and we are asking for JYP's confirmation to this-"
"There is no confirmation, nothing is goi-"

"Miss Miyoui.. if you may please see the captured photo, this is something you could not deny."

She dropped a photo down, of Me and Jeongyeon, holding hands by the downtown east- and together in the arcade.
"Miss Kim, this is out of context, Jeongyeon and I-"

"I forced her to come with me" Jeongyeon interrupted
"Excuse me"
"She was trying to stop me, you see, I was pulling her.- and you see from the photos and the games, we were merely playing, cause I was complaining of how bad she was"

"I-I see."
"So that photo is deemed useless unless you make use of that as a fake story."
"It does not explain how Miyoui-"
"Is my manager. She has the right to join me when I feel like I wanted to go out as part of her duty."
"Manager? I-Is this true JYP?"
"Ah- yes. She is- she is my newly hired manager. Contract and sealed too, with her employee ID"

"Ah I see. So my men-"
"Were wrong" Jeongyeon uttered
"R-right"

"I suggest to delete these photos at once- or I can call the authorities and report you as stalkers"
"We are sorry for the misunderstanding"
"You are welcome, now that you have confirmed it from all parties.. you are free to leave" he smiled politely and bowed

"Th-thank you for you time" she and her team left the office

Tzuyu and Jihyo sighed plopping their bodies over the sofa of JYP's office. JYP's eyes snapped onto the two boys.

"Ah! Sorry sir!" They immediately straightened up

***

"Well, i hope that settles it, but if in case Dispatch drops the news, we'll be ready to sue."
"Y-yes"

"And Jeongyeon, Mina. I expect you two to have a mere manager and idol relationship. Please refrain from being-"
"We promise! I take my job seriously sir, this is something I promise I'd keep."
"Jeongyeon?"
"Y-Yes."

"Good.- now, ISAC is tomorrow. Mina please get ICEY ready for the games tomorrow, be at the stadium at 6:00 am sharp."
"Y-yes sir"
"Oh, and I believe you and my niece are living in the same roof?"
"Yes.."

JYP handed over tickets to me for ISAC championship
"Here, tell her and your friends to come join too. A few cheers for our ICEY."
"Thank you sir. I will definitely give it to her and our other friends"
"Very well. -now, as scheduled, ICEY has an MV shooting today."
"Shouldnt they practice instead"

"I believe our ICEY is one of the strongest teams, besides, The only team we'll worry about is ECHO and Be*ST. Either than that, our ICEY can handle it. But I hope to get the winning cup this season than third place- understand?"

"Yes sir!" ICEY chorused
"Good- now get a move on, we have a lot of work to do."

"! Chaeyoung! I think i am gay for my best friend! HELP ME!!!" Dahyun grabbed her collar and began shaking her as she continued to watch Tzuyu perform
"Calm down there! you are just amazed!"
"Are you not seeing your best friend being hot over there?!" Dahyun's eyes widened
"Yeah he sure is. but I am not gay for him!"
"AAHHH!! Tzuyu is just..!"

(Loose loose)
(I'll catch it light it fly it Yo)
(Better jinjja ttak galgeoya igeon direct sign)

"Ah , I am gay for our friends! Jihyo and Jeongyeon are both hot like FIREEEE!!" Dahyun squealed

"Cut!" The director called "Good job boys!"

"ah! here they come- Tzuyu! you are amazing!"
"Hey Dahyun- Thanks!" He winked and huffed "it's so tiring!"

"Tzuyu! Come check the monitor!" Jihyo called
"ah! Right! coming- wait a sec guys!"

"alright!" Dahyun waved

"So.. what do you usually do Mina?" Chaeyoung smiled
"Manage? watch- and make sure they behave.. and more like- make sure their image is always stunning!" She laughed
"I see..- so, you get to take care of Jeongyeon like that?" She smiled at her piercing her with blank eyes

"u-uh.. yeah. him, Tzuyu and Jihyo.- are you okay?"
"Y-yeah. i am" she hanged her head low and Dahyun immediately wrapped her arms around her

"Ah! okay! uh, time for us to go!"
"Wait why, you just got here?"
"ah! Chaeyoung left her paintings outside, so we gotta get it- and imma help her sell it."
"ah.. I see."
"S-see ya" Dahyun grinned as she dragged Chaeyoung with her as they leave "-o-oy! stop being so dumb you idiot!"

Mina heard Dahyun's whisper enough for her to wonder what was wrong with her.

"ah! Chaeyoung!" Mina yelled as Chaeyoung and Dahyun turned towards her "p-please come home tonight, I'll be cooking dinner"
Chaeyoung smiled and bowed without uttering a word

"hey! can Momo and I join you for dinner?" Dahyun grinned
"u-uh..."

"Dinner? Mina is cooking?" Tzuyu grinned as she walked behind her
"Oh! Oh! Are we invited too?" Jihyo pounced around the group

"u-uhm.. w-wait. I-"
 

***

That night...

"When I meant- I am cooking..-" She began in a monotone "I DID NOT MEAN FOR ALL OF YOU!!"

She raised her voice as everyone popped out in her vision, from ICEY to ThinkBlack to Dahyun, Momo, Nayeon and Chaeyoung ending up in their home for dinner

"ahh, but I accidentally told my members that you were cooking dinner"  Sana pouted
"Sorry Mina! but we would love to join" Rose smirked

"Great- and WHY AM I COOKING FOR EVERYONE!"
"Y-you offered.." Dahyun pouted
"I OFFERED FOR CHAEYOUNG!!"

"aww. why is Chae special?" Dahyun taunted as Chaeyoung nudged her from behind "-what. I was just asking?"

"Chaeyoung is my roommate, I cook and she cooks for the both of us."
"Is that all?" Dahyun smirked
"DAHYUN!" Chaeyoung nudged again

"Y-yeah- are you okay?"
"y-yeap! just wondering!" she grinned

"I am cooking for all- fine i get it."
"THANK YOU!" Sana pounced
"N-no! Not you chef! you are helping me!-"

"Yeah make Sana cook! she and mina will be am-"
"You too Momo!"

"NOOO!! WHYY!! Why do i have to-"
"BECAUSE!!! you are Momo and you'll help me!"
"Excuse me! I am only good at eating-"
"Dahyun?"
"NO!- WHAT?!- fine! but don't blame me if there are some ingredients missing!"

"Ah! let us help, We'll set up the barbecue outside!" Jihyo raised his hand
"Oh! finally! a volunteer!"

"Ha! don't worry manager- we got you covered. we ordered some meat on the way for us to cook" Jihyo laughed
"Lucky- Chaeyoung's place is at the roof top! we are having a roof top barbecue party!" Tzuyu exclaimed
"Oh geeze!- make sure to clean up!" Jennie rolled her eyes

"Hey Princess! in case you are forgetting? ThinkBlack also needs to help!" Tzuyu laughed
"WHAT?!" Jisoo's eyes widened "Okay I am going ho-"

"Girls!" Sana yelled
"We were just kidding!!" Lisa laughed
"Calm down- we wont leave you!" Rose wrapped her arms around Sana.
"Okay good- now can you guys do the kimchi?"

"EHH!!!" they said in unison
"please?"
"F-fine" Jennie averted

"HAHAH! ThinkBlack is gonna have their hands-" Tzuyu was cut off by Sana walking over him with a grin carrying a big piece of meat onto her hand
"Tzuyu-" She smiled reaching the meat over him
"W-what.. do you want me to do with that..."

"Will you cut this into pieces.. small cube pieces.."
"b-but that.. is raw.."
"yeah- and the knife is over there.." Sana smiled as she watched Tzuyu go over the knife- which happens to be blunt

"S-sana chan.. the knife is blunt-"
"You don't expect me to sharpen it right?"
"u-uh..."
"here." Sana handed over a whetstone onto him "sharpen it.."

"S-sana.." Sana walked out smiling as she passed by her members who are now snickering at Tzuyu

"poor Tzuyu-"
"S-shut up!"
"damn- I love how much you'll do anything for our Sana!" Rose whispered- Tzuyu jolted away and holding up his ear
"S-shut up!!"
"are you flustered?" Rose smiled

"Hey! Rose! Stop teasing Tzuyu!" Jennie called
"HAHA! See ya!" she grinned and left

"Ugh!-" Tzuyu mumbled to himself.

***

The boys began heating up the griller, waiting for the meat to arrive. Tzuyu was helping Sana and Mina in the kitchen, While Momo, Nayeon and ThinkBlack members prepare side dishes. Chaeyoung and Dahyun were sent to go out and grab some drinks for the group.
Everything were going according to plan, and in a few hours time, they began setting up the food.

"Ah! Dinner time!" Lisa exclaimed
"Well, We made a lot- Thank you for the food Mina"
"This is not even planned but I am happy you guys liked it" she smiled as Jeongyeon and the boys walked behind her

"Okay girls! MEAT IS SERVED!" Jihyo gladly smiled as they dropped the pot of meat onto the table.

"Whoa! You guys cooked a lot!" Jisoo and Momo's eyes widened
"Courtesy of ICEY!"

"Hey! We prepared too!" Jennie squinted
"We smell like smoke!" Jihyo countered

"Hey! Boy leader!!"
"Hey! Girl leader!!"
"We at least did something!" They both said in unison.

"You two! Calm down- or else you two would end up kissing!" Nayeon laughed
"What? Ew?" Jihyo knitted his brows

"Ah?" Jennie gasped in offensively "it's not like I wanna kiss you!- I have Lisa!!"
"Oh Jennie! We all know you do?"
"Hey hey hey! That Jennie is Mine!! Jihyo!" Lisa growled
"Just kidding.. kust kidding! Plus I think we already have a ThinkICE couple" he snickered

"Oh.. yeah- our loving SaTzu!" Rose taunted

Everyone immediately laughed and snapped onto Sana and Tzuyu.

"Hey!! Stop pairing me and Tzuyu." Sana roared
"Well, SaTzu does sound cute don't you think?" Jihyo smirked

"JenLisa for the win! So!" Jennie shroud
"Hmmm. DahMo is a cute ship too!" Dahyun squinted
"That is just-" Mina rolled her eyes

"Oh! Don't think you are safe Mina?" Tzuyu smirked
"Eh?"
"You and Jeongyeon. The amazing.. uh-"

"JeongMi!" Lisa yelled
"Oh! Yeah! That sounds perfect!" They chattered

While Nayeon's smile faded. Jihyo noticed her.

"Ew!? Jeongyeon?" Mina laughed "please."
"Aww you don't want being a JeongMi?" Jeongyeon said
"No?"

"How bout MiMo?" Momo added
"Hey! Momo! You are my girl-"
"It's all for fun babe"
"I'd love Mimo!" She laughed

"Eh? How bout us? 2na? MiSa?- whatever it is!!" Sana pouted
"I like that too!"

Jeongyeon watched Mina laugh and enjoy with the conversation.

"Ah." Dahyun began. "What about-" Chaeyoung nudged her to stop but Dahyun kept going "MiChaeng" she grinned

"Oh, is that for Mina and Chaeyoung?" Sana smirked
"Ahhh! Roommates" Momo taunted As Mina eyes them to stop. Mina saw Chaeyoung embarrassed hanging her head low- and Jeongyeon watched from there.

"Let's eat!" Tzuyu coughed and began serving food
 

***

"So.. ISAC is tomorrow.." Jennie began "you guys participating on anything?"

"Uh, Shooters, Track and The cross basketball" Tzuyu uttered

"What about ThinkBlack?" Jihyo said munching on his food

"Ah! Archery, Track, and Cross Volleyball" Rose answered

"Ah! Good luck to us I guess! ThinkBlack and ICEY needs to win this season!" Momo cheered

"Y-yeah!" Nayeon gently smiled as Jihyo watched her from the corner.

Jihyo cleared his throat as he sees Nayeon eyeing Mina who seems to be sitting between Chaeyoung and Jeongyeon. She watched Mina and Jeongyeon care for each other more than just a manager. This.. hurt her.

Jihyo cleared his throat once again

"H-How about let's start the party?" He said

"Oh! I got soju!!" Momo reached out

"Wait! No soju for tonight!" Mina stopped it.

"eh?! Why?"

"In case you guys forgot ISAC is at 6am tomorrow.." Mina uttered

"But-"

"ThinkBlack, and ICEY needs to be there. WE need to be there"

"Ah! Speaking like a true Manager" Lisa laughed

"Stop." She laughed "let's just play a game then!"

***

Everyone began having fun, playing a twister board game, charades, and other fun games to play with the group.

"Ah! Wait, I-I need to rest"

"Ah! Nayeon, you okay?"

"Y-yeah."

She looked over Mina and Jeongyeon, teasing each other as Mina held Chaeyoung closer. Jeongyeon and Mina were arguing for the fun of it- just like they use to, but she sees Jeongyeon oddly happy about this.

"So.. feeling cold?" Jihyo smiled as he walked closer to Nayeon on the other corner. Nayeon nodded and smiled "Problem?"

"No, nothing.. don't worry."

"Gee" he chuckled "that's hard to do."

"Whatever Jihyo" she chuckled

The pair watched from the edge of the roof top, watching their friends smile and laugh and enjoy the night. Nayeon immediately sighed and faked a smile over her face once more.

Jihyo watched and turned towards the horizon smiling as the breeze flows through him.

"Look Nayeon, the city is just serene." He smiled waiting for Nayeon to turn- making her avert from her sadness.

Nayeon turned and followed with a smile, the wind blew her hair softly.
"Beautiful, isn't it?" Jihyo smiled
"Y-yeah."

"People, can't just appreciate this lovely view- because you know- they are all busy. It feels great to have some of this leisure once in a while right"
"Jihyo... can I ask you something?"
"Y-yeah anything for you Nayeon."

"You.. do you have someone you like?"
"What's with the question?"
"I just wanted to ask if it normally makes you sad or happy?"
"Well, that depends."
"I see.."
"You see, my love for that person, is indefinite. I get hurt- Yes, but I am happy, even if i knew it was not me who can make her smile like that"

"So this person, likes someone else?"
"Yes... but, I still love her. That's never gonna change"
"I envy you.- you are able to remain in love even if it hurts"
"Don't be-"
"Why?"
"Because there is one thing I can never do- is tell her that I love her."

"Then tell her-"
"It's not that easy... she'll hate me if i-"
"Jihyo, you were my best friend since High school, a gentleman! An amazing personality. Who would hate you?"
"I am glad you could say that."
"Because- if this girl wont love you for who you are then, she is stupid"

Jihyo laughed and took a deep breathe and released a big sigh

"Well, she loves someone else." He smiled "and I am fine with that- as long as she is happy"

Nayeon smiled and linked her arms with her best friend- laying her head onto him.
"You know, if the world were just a movie- I'd be happy with just being with a friend like you" She calmly smiled and snuggled onto him

Jihyo felt his heart beat louder, he knew what he wanted, he knew- Nayeon was the girl he wanted to begin with. But somehow, he knew he needed to take a leap one way or another.

"Jihyo, you should be more brave about your feelings."
"What do you mean?"
"Just let this girl know- she'll definitely love you I am sure"
"I dont want her to love me just because I told her i did" he smiled laying his head on top of Nayeon's

"Yeah, well, at least this girl is not oblivious... she can hurt you less and tell you if you had a chance or no-"
"I know I don't have the chance" he said monotonously.

Nayeon's brows knitted in disappointment, as she scowled to Jihyo's words.
"You should really stop being negative.." she calmly said
"No- I am sure. I know her too we-"

Nayeon snapped onto him with a scowl "How sur-"

Jihyo immediately leaned over- quickly capturing her lips to her silence.
