Ch. 17

Woo Jiho's Personal Assistant?!

 Catori’s P.O.V

We drove to his office after lunch which was pretty close by. “Did you have fun?” he asked me while keeping his eyes on the road.

“Yep! I really like your friends, they’re all really nice!!” I replied smiling.

“I’m glad to hear that!” he smiled. “I hope you don’t get too bored at my office for the rest of the day.” He glanced over at me. I shook my head quickly and smiled.

“I’m actually really excited to see what you do at work oppa!” I exclaimed while looking at him. He grinned and went to go grab my hand that just so happened to be on my thigh. I could feel myself get nervous when I felt his hand stay on my thigh. Well, this isn’t awkward at all. I let out an awkward cough and looked out the window. He let go to make a turn then put his hand back on my thigh. Alright, maybe I should tell him something? But what should I say? Hey man, I feel really awkward with your hand on my thigh can you like, not? Ugh, I guess it’s fine. I mean I’m sure it’s not like he wants me to feel awkward.

“We’re here!” he parked the car in front of a building that was about the same size as the Woo Company. I smiled and then walked out of the car with a big sigh of relief. He came to my side and held my hand with his before walking into the building. The rest of the day was actually pretty fun. I couldn’t help but think that something was wrong with Jiho. The fact that he let me go with Kikwang had me puzzled. Why would he act like a complete jerk and then let me hang out with Kikwang? I pushed the thought to the back of my head and tried to ignore it the best I could. But then I remembered what else he said. Jiho has a date. I mentally slapped myself in the face when I felt my hands ball up into fists. Why should I care? I don’t. Nope. Not one bit. Ugh, I ran my hand through my hair and was pulled out of my thoughts when Kikwang called me. “Ready to leave?” he asked with a smile on his face. I smiled back and nodded. He stretched his hand out to hold mine and we walked back to his car. Looking up at him, I thought to myself, why can’t I think about him more instead of Jiho? I mean he treats me so much more nicer than Jiho does and he’s sweeter. Maybe if I start hanging out with him more. I sighed again at my own thoughts.

“Hey Kikwang oppa?” I asked him still stuck in my thoughts.

“Mhm?” he responded, still guiding me to the car.

“We should hang out more and get to know each other more. I mean we know each other really well now, but maybe even more.” I continued looking up at him smiling. He looked over at me and grinned.

“Of course Tori! I promise when we go to the beach it’ll be just you and me.” he stuck his pinky out and linked it with mine. I giggled and then continued walking with him.

It was already Friday and only a couple minutes before my shift ended. This past week has been very strange between me and Jiho. He hasn’t really talked that much and has been on his phone a lot lately. It’s kinda scaring me. And on top of that he hasn’t been making me do crazy things for him at work. It’s actually kinda boring. I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard his door open.

“Time to go.” Is all he said. Oh yeah, did I mention that he’s been real monotone with me too. Oh, and only me. How do I know that? Because with every other person I have seen him with he has been actually nice which is very strange. “Coming?” he looked over his shoulder at me. I nodded and grabbed my bags that I brought with me for the weekend so we wouldn’t have to go back home. I got a text from Kikwang telling me he was almost here. I was going to take a van with him and his friends to Sokcho and I guess Jiho was going in another car. I walked down to the lobby and looked around. I heard an annoying squeal to the left of me, looking over I saw a twig pale chick run over and shove me to the side almost knocking me over.

“Oppa~! I can’t wait for this weekend!” she squealed again. I looked over at her in disgust then realized this was Jiho’s date. My eyes widened in shock and I could feel anger build up inside of me. This chick?!! Of course Jiho would pick some ty chick girl as his date. She hurdled herself on him and started kissing his neck. I looked over to Jiho and saw him look directly at me and smirk. My eyes widened even more at the fact that he smirked and showed emotion. I was tempted to give him the middle finger but a text from Kikwang stopped me. I saw his car parked out and saw him come in. If you’re trying to make me jealous Woo Jiho, then it’s on. I smiled and gave Kikwang a tight hug.

“Ready to have fun?!” he smiled at me. I nodded and then waved bye to Jiho who had an annoyed look on his face now. I smirked and then walked with Kikwang to his car. “We’re gonna stop by my house real quick to meet up with the guys is that okay?” he asked opening the door for me. I nodded at him smiling.

“Can I change at your house? I don’t really wanna wear my work clothes to the beach.” I laughed a little. He laughed with me and nodded saying he was going to change too. All of the guys were already there waiting for us.

“Tori!!” They all chimed together and smiled perfectly at me. I smiled back and waved. We quickly changed (obviously in different rooms) and then took the van that they rented to the beach.

 

“Jiho is going to meet us there with his friends and date.” I couldn’t help but twitch when Kikwang said date.

“Are you excited for the beach Tori?” Doojoon snapped me out of my thoughts. I nodded simply and smiled.

“Thanks for bringing me with you guys.” I chimed happily. They all smiled and nodded.

“Thanks for coming!” Hyunseung piped. We all made small talk on the ride to Sokcho and got to know each other better.

“This is gonna be a lot of fun! I’m so excited! When we get there we should go to the beach!” Yoseob jumped in his seat giddily.

“It’ll probably be too late by then-“

“But I at least wanna walk on the beach!” Yoseob continued. I grinned at his little pout he had.

“Fine~” Doojoon complied rolling his eyes.

“We’re almost there guys; we’ll check in first and then go to the beach.” Kikwang glanced over at us from the driver’s seat. He parked in the parking lot and then we all grabbed our luggage and started towards the hotel entrance. I couldn’t help but stare in awe. It looked so luxurious I don’t even think I’m going to be able to pay it. Kikwang walked next to me with a smile. “I hope you like the place, I already paid for your hotel costs so there’s no need to worry.” He smiled and then grabbed my hand. I looked at him surprised and thankful.

“Thanks oppa.” I replied genuinely. He smiled and then wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

“Don’t worry about it, we’re dating aren’t we? As your boyfriend it’s my responsibility to take care of you.” He kissed my temple making me blush more than I already was. Wait, did he just say boyfriend? Well, we did kiss, but it’s too sudden, no? Oh well, I’m probably just overthinking it too much. My head snapped to the entrance of the lobby when I heard a familiar deep voice call out my name in a childish manner. I saw all of Jiho’s crew and of course Jiho with his arm placed around that twigs neck. He had a smirk on his face as he saw Jihoon run towards me. Before I could react my feet were already off the ground and Jihoon’s arms were wrapped around me tightly. Oh boy, now time to explain how I know them all. Well .

“When hyung told me you were going to be here too I immediately packed my bags and came!” he continued spinning me around in his arms. Finally he let me go when he heard Kikwang clear his throat. “Tori is this the guy that you’re going out with?” Jihoon whispered as if he couldn’t hear us. I rolled my eyes and nodded.

“Yup, this is him. Lee Kikwang.” I smiled and linked arms with him again. I didn’t want to make Kikwang feel uncomfortable so I tried my best to act how I usually do when I’m around him. The rest of the guys came over and smiled at me knowing that they probably shouldn’t do the same thing Jihoon did. When we all checked in we walked to the rooms to put our luggage away. I noticed that Kikwang only had one key which made me kind of nervous. Are we gonna share a room? I chewed on my lip and got the courage to ask him. “Hey oppa?” I looked up at him. He hummed and then looked at me. “Are we gonna share a room?” my eyebrows furrowed unconsciously.

“I accidently booked one room but there are twin beds so don’t worry.” He pinched my cheek lightly grinning. I sighed in relief and let all my nervous thoughts leave my head. We walked into the hotel room and I ran to my bed and jumped on it. I looked around and was amazed at how beautiful everything was. Never in my life did I think I was going to be staying in a place like this. I continued looking around the room and saw the bathroom door was adjacent to the entrance. I looked inside and saw a Jacuzzi and shower. This is like a dream. It was unbelievable. “You like it?” Kikwang placed his head on my shoulder and wrapped his arms around my waist. I tensed up at his touch as my eyes widened at the sudden contact. I couldn’t help but feel a little strange with his arms around me. It was probably because I’m not used to it. My hands slowly landed on his as I tried to get used to his touch. I’m used to holding hands but that’s about it. Lately he’s been getting more touchy and I can’t tell if it’s a good thing or a bad thing.  I tried my best to ignore my thoughts and faced him with a smile.

     

“Yes I do! Thank you so much! It must have cost so much! I have to pay you back somehow!” I hugged him and let go.

“Don’t worry about it,” he grinned and pecked my lips. I could feel my cheeks heat up again at the kiss. We’ve kissed before, but I feel like this is different. Again, I cleared my thoughts and told him that we should meet the others at the beach. We walked back down to the lobby and saw that everyone else was already there, including Jiho’s group. I grimaced at the scene of the twig leeching onto Jiho’s neck. Like literally her lips looked like they were connected and they weren’t getting off anytime soon. I looked at the others and saw that Kikwang’s friends were already getting along with Jiho’s friends. I smiled as I saw Jihoon interact with Yoseob and Dongwoon who was holding a ball.

“Tori! We all wanna play volleyball! Let’s go play! You too hyung!” Dongwoon waved at us when he saw us. I groaned quiet enough for no one to hear me, but placed a smile on my face. It’s not that I didn’t want to play I was just tired from the ride here.  We all walked to the beach that was walking distance from the hotel. When we got there, there was already a volleyball net set up and a score board.

“Tori you’re on our team!” Doojoon claimed as we all started to huddle together. “Okay guys, they look tough but we got this! Team work!” Doojoon shouted and we all cheered. I went to put my shoes to the side and saw that the twig - hehe I like that, yup that’s her new name. She was sitting in the sand with a look of disgust.

“What up with you? Too much of a to play?” I smirked and then walked away, thankful that no one heard me. I got in my place and could tell that she was glaring at me, but I ignored it and continued smirking to show her I didn’t care. The game started with Doojoon serving the ball over. The game was simple at first nothing too competitive, but once I heard the twig squeal again and again when Jiho made it over I snapped. The ball came to our side of the net.

“Mine!” I shouted as I jumped up in the air and spiked the ball to the ground on the other side of the net. There was silence for a second before Dongwoon and Yoseob started cheering and so did the others.

“DID YOU SEE THAT?!” Yoseob shouted in Dongwoon’s face.

“HOW COULD I MISS THAT?!” he replied just as loud and they reenacted the scene. I laughed and so did the others, but of course not the opposing team. I snickered as I saw Jiho glare at me from over the net. I stuck my tongue out at him when no one was looking and then went back to my place to continue the game. When the ball went to the other side I saw Jiho run up towards it. I knew what he was planning to do so I got prepared and followed the ball when it came over I hit up in the air and told Junhyung to hit it over when he did I quickly high fived him and continued with the game. I could feel his eyes on me but I ignored him and continued with the game. When it came my way I prepared myself to spike the ball again. When I did I didn’t realize it went to Jiho’s direction and he spiked right back. Before I could react I felt a sharp pain in my gut. I had the wind knocked out of me as I fell back on my . I groaned and held my stomach where the ball hit me.

“Catori!” I saw someone come over to my side but I couldn’t tell who it was because I was still a little dizzy. They pulled me up and had their arm wrapped around me. I groaned in pain and tried to inch back because of the pain. Taking deep breathes I was finally able to stand up straight. I looked at the person next to me and saw that it was Jiho. Surprised I pulled away slightly and saw the others look at me. Everyone had looks of worry well of course except the twig and… Kikwang. He looked angry, but why? He walked over to me and held me close to him.

“Why don’t you sit out for a bit.” He took me to the side and helped me site down. I could feel the tension rise as I saw him bump into Jiho on purpose and continue walking. I could tell Jiho was about to do something but Taeil called him back to the other side. He stalked back to his side glancing at me slightly. What just happened?
