It was a few weeks later and I was once again standing bored at one of the photoshoots. I felt someone tap my back and turned to see who it was.

“Hey. Long time no see.” I groaned internally. It was Paul again. He was nice, but after last time, I felt uncomfortable, especially after the group agreement that he had in fact been flirting the whole time. Gosh I’m so dense.

“O-Oh… Hey…” I gave him a nervous smile. He stood there smiling brightly, camera in hand.

“I knew I’d see you again one of these days.” I nodded. “So, you’re still working with those guys?” he asked, gesturing towards EXO. I nodded,

“yeah.” He nodded. I thought I saw a twinge of jealously flash in his eyes.

“…So…. How does that work I mean… you don’t… live with them… do you?” he asked. I rubbed my temples in frustration. I felt a headache coming on.

“I’m not authorized to discuss such details with you. Sorry. But EXO is off limit for us to talk about. I hope you understand.” I smiled slightly. He furrowed his eyebrows slightly.

“What do you mean? It’s a simple yes or no question. Come on, between friends?” I stiffened. He was annoying me today.

“I’m sorry, but like I said, I can’t talk about it. Not only that, but I WON’T. They’re my friends and they deserve privacy. And even if you’re not trying to find out for any bad motives, that I know of, I won’t talk about it.” He thought about it for a moment, and then smiled,

“Loyal. I like that. Maybe once we get closer, you’ll feel more comfortable with me.” I grimaced, dude, don’t do this…. “So, do you want to go for coffee sometime?”

“I have a boyfriend…” His eyes widened and his mouth formed an ‘O’.

“Ohh…” he said. I grimaced. Yeah, we had all been right. That was his intent… Ugh… Awkward… “Umm, well… I-uhh…” He stuttered. Just then I looked over his shoulder and saw Lay approaching us. I gulped. He looked annoyed…. But he’ll at least give me an excuse to get away from this guy. I smiled at Paul assuringly.

“Sorry. Umm, it was nice seeing you again…? But I have to go now. There’s a jealous unicorn approaching.” I smirked as Lay came over, gave Paul a look, grabbed my hand, and pulled me away.

I sighed as I followed him away. He stopped a few feet away. “Why were you talking to him again?” he asked, dejected. He avoided looking at me.

“Lay. He just came out of nowhere and started talking to me. I was about to excuse myself when you came over.” He still didn’t look up at me. I sighed, “You all were right.” He looked up at me in confusion. “He was flirting. He just asked me out.” Lay’s eyes shot open with anger. “Hey. But I told him I had a boyfriend.” His eyebrows crinkled. I rolled my eyes. “Have you forgotten. Pabo. Its you.” I poked his chest and he rubbed the place absentmindedly as he scowled.

“I know that. I was just…”

“Jealous?” I asked. He scowled some more and looked away. I smiled softly. “You don’t have to be jealous. You know you’re the only one in here.” I placed my hand over my heart. He looked up slightly, lip slightly stuck out in dejection. He eyed me suspiciously for a moment. Then he looked around quickly. He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the room and down the hall without a word. I squeeked slightly and he gave me a quick look. He looked back and forth across the hall. He walked towards a door and opened it. He the light and stepped inside, pulling me with him. He mumbled something about there not being cameras. I tilted my head in confusion. What is he doing? He pulled me inside and shut he door behind me.
