(High Cut)

No new outfits for this chapter so here's a cute pic of the two ^-^

Enjoy!

'Seulgi ah...'

'M-ms Bae...'

'Is it really that hard?' Irene stated bluntly.

'Sorry....'

Irene looked caringly at her newly-hired bodyguard doing her first ever photoshoot. Seulgi had lowered her head at was staring at the ground, her long hair covering her face. Her hands held one another, seeming anxious and not knowing what to do.

Aish don't do that....

Ah jinja... was I too harsh...?

It IS her first time after all... and she shouldn't even be doing this in the first place...

'Hey...' Irene said softly.

'...'

'I didn't mean it like that...'

Seulgi slowly raised her head, her eyes still avoiding Irene.

'Come on... why should a pretty girl like you be hiding away like that?'

Seulgi gave a shy smile, brushing away her hair.

'Here,' Irene said, sticking out her hand. 'Let me help you with this.'

Slowly yet unsteadily, Seulgi raised her hand to meet Irene's. Their fingertips brushed together for a brief second, but it was already enough to send Irene's senses tingling. Seulgi had average-sized hands, but unlike others, she had really slender fingers. Her skin was smooth like silk. As Seulgi continued to push her fingers along her palm, Irene could feel all the contours of Seulgi's fingers. Each slight dip and bump, each joint and crease. The feeling of their hands coming in the slightest contact here and there... was extremely sensual. It was surprising pleasant to Irene, though she paid little attention to it.

'Now... wrap your fingers around my hands...' 

Seulgi complied, closing her fingers around the older girl's palm. Her little finger came first, then her ring finger, then the rest.

The feeling was warm and secure.

Irene slowy drew her thumb back and forth over Seulgi's knuckles, reassuring her. She couldn't help but feel the slightly rougher patches of skin.

Why does she have these...

'You've been doing great okay sweetie?' Irene said lightly.

'T-thanks Ms. Bae...'

'Just a few more shots and we're done~'

Seulgi nodded, her face slightly red.

Dootdoot click~

Went the camera. Yet both the girls were too entranced to notice.

Irene's fingers were slender too. In fact, her hand was probably smaller than Seulgi's. Just like before, she unravelled her fingers, slowly, carefully, one by one. Smiling, she smoothly withdrew her hand, not wanting to change the position Seulgi's fingers were in. 

Seulgi nearly winced as Irene withdrew her hand.

Walking away, she turned to face Taemin.

'How's this?'

'Perfect.' Taemin said, satisfied. 'Can you face the camera Seulgi? Perfect!'

Dootdoot click ......    Dootdoot click ......

Although it was a long day, the shoot progressed without any major issues. Follwing Seulgi's dilemma, Taemin had wanted to rap up the shoot quickly, and indeed he did. The rest of the poses were a lot simplier, and suspiciously didn't require Seulgi raising her hand anymore. After a quick rest and changing back into her own clothes, Seulgi and Irene headed back to the car. 

'So... how was it?' Irene asked.

'I guess it was... alright...' Seulgi admitted.

'It was fun wasn't it.'

'Let's just say... I'd rather stick to being a bodyguard...'

Irene gave a chuckle.

'But Ms. Bae...'

'Hmmm...?'

'Did you see um... anything special in me?'

Irene turned to look at Seulgi, an amused expression on her face. 

'Really? That's what you're thinking about?'

Seulgi nodded shyly.

Cheongmal... this girl...
