Chapter 3

Runway To Love

Suho’s POV

For some unknown reason, Suho could not sleep well last night. Maybe it was because all their different schedules have messed up his sleeping pattern or maybe because of the new guest that was currently sleeping in the next room. Suho got up and quietly left the room that he shared with some of the members. He went to the bathroom to freshen up and to start the day, he knew that today was going to be an easy day as they only had one schedule set up but then again that could change. He walked towards the kitchen only to stop and smelled a delightful scent which only meant one thing D.O made breakfast. It was still too early for the members to be awake so why was he up so early? As Suho walked towards the kitchen, he got an answer. D.O wasn’t making breakfast, Minah was. As he walked in he saw her back as she flipped pancakes while humming a familiar song and for a second he stood by the doorway and admired her. He couldn’t help but smile as he watched Minah prepare food, could it be? Did Suho fall for his new ‘sister’? Before he could think about it any further, he cleared his throat to make his presence known.

Minah turned around with a smile on her face and wiped her hands on the apron she was wearing. “Good morning, Suho Oppa” she greeted as she poured a cup of coffee. “Please sit” she told the leader as Suho sat on one of the chairs. As soon as Suho sat down, he was amazed by the amount of food that was laid out on the table.

“Wow, you made all this?” Suho looked at Minah as she nodded. From waffles to eggs, Minah cooked all her favourite breakfast foods as she wasn’t sure what food the members preferred.

“I didn’t know what you guys liked so I just cooked my favourites” She laughed as she handed Suho, the cup of coffee. “Is coffee okay? Or do you prefer something else?” she smiled at him.

Suho took the coffee “Coffee is fine” he took a sip and welcomed the warm liquid. “Why are you up so early?” He asked Minah as she began to tidy up the utensils she’s been using. “Leave it Minah, at least till after breakfast. I’ll even help.” Suho smiled as he motioned for her to sit down.

Minah nodded and sat across Suho. “I guess my body is still running on American time” She said as they both laughed. She began to put food on a plate before handing it over to Suho. “Oppa, eat” She smiled as Suho took the plate. “Wait, you’re not allergic to anything on the table are you?” She asked him.

Suho chuckled “No, I’m good” Minah watched as Suho cut and tried the waffles.

“Well, how’s the food?” Minah asked Suho as he closed his eyes and made a sound of approval, he didn’t speak as he continued to eat which only made Minah laugh. “That good, huh?” Suho nodded excitedly.

After awhile Suho finally spoke “Just so you know, the members are going to love you now even more than before” Minah blushed “They’re probably never going to let you leave now”

“It’s the least I could do after letting me stay here, which I’m still not sure about” Minah bit her lip which Suho found adorable.

“We told you, you can stay here for as long as you like” Suho said he drank his coffee.

Minah thanked him before pouring more coffee in the leader’s mug. “I don’t even remember getting here last night” she said “The last thing I remember was falling asleep in the van” She giggled.

“Minseok Hyung carried you to bed last night, we didn’t want to wake you” Suho shared.

“Which explains why I was still wearing the same outfit this morning” She laughed.

For a few minutes there was silence but it wasn’t uncomfortable at least not for Suho. As Suho finished his breakfast he looked at Minah and smiled. “Are you glad you moved back to Korea?” He asked her.

Minah smiled “Yeah, I missed my family so much especially Minseok Oppa” she looked at Suho as she continued “Can I tell you something, Oppa?” Suho nodded.

“I was miserable when I was in America” She frowned “I mean I love what I was doing but at the end of the day when I got home, I felt so alone and I always cried myself to sleep” she whispered as Suho noticed tears flowing down her cheeks. “I hated that Minseok Oppa was so far away” she sighed as she laughed “I even hated it when he got into SM and he had to train and he got so busy” By this time Suho got up and moved beside her as he began to rub her back, comforting her.

She smiled as she continued “A-And when he told me he was debuting, I felt angry” she continued, letting out her feelings “I was so selfish, there I was living my dream but I didn’t want Minseok Oppa to live his because-“ She kept crying. “Because that would take him away from me” She continued to cry as Suho took her into his arms.

“You’re not selfish” He whispered as he pulled away to face her “You did nothing wrong” Suho wiped away her tears “You just missed your brother” Minah laughed as she wiped away the remaining tears.

“He’s going to be mad at me when he finds out” She whispered to him as she looked down. Minah was ashamed that she had these thoughts. Suho grabbed her hands which made her look up.

“He won’t, Minseok Hyung loves you and he’ll understand when you tell him” Suho smiled as Minah mirrored his smile.

“Well, Good Morning” A voice said as the pair turned towards the door. D.O stood before them with a smirk on his face.

Realising that he was still holding her hands, Suho blushed and before he could let go Minah beat him to it and stood up. 

“Good morning, Kyungsoo Oppa” Minah smiled.

D.O smirked as he walked towards them “Don’t mind me, I’m just here to prepare brea-“he stopped as he looked at the table. “Who prepared this?” He questioned the pair as Suho pointed towards Minah.

Minah smiled “I did, Oppa” she pulled out a chair. “Come and eat” D.O nodded and sat down and just like Suho, Minah offered him a drink and began to pile food on his plate.

“Eat lots because you guys have a schedule today” Minah smiled as she sat down again next to Suho.

“How’d you know?” Suho asked Minah.

“When I woke up, Manager Oppa was up too and he told me” Minah smiled “Oh and he said that he had to go to an emergency meeting so he won’t be back till later to pick you guys up”

“Oh my goodness, Minah” D.O beamed as he faced her. “These waffles are delicious! Please never leave us”

Suho laughed “Told you so” He smirked towards Minah.

Your POV

As D.O asked you to never leave you couldn’t help but laugh. You’ve fallen in love with the boys already and there’s no way you can leave them, not even if you tried. You smiled as you watch the two boys chat; you couldn’t help but glance over at Suho. You told him something you’ve never told anyone not even your best friend. That made you feel happy and scared at the same time, you’ve only known him for less than 48 hours and yet you were able to tell him one of your secrets. What’ll happen when you spend more time together?

“Do you have any plans today, Minah?” D.O’s question brought you back.

You nodded. “I have a meeting with my new agent today” You smiled, you were eager to get back into modelling.

“Oooh exciting!” D.O beamed as he drank his juice. “I wonder who you will be working with” He smiled.

“I smell food”

“Oh my goodness, are those chocolate chip pancakes?!”

“Eggs!”

“Coffee!”

All of sudden the kitchen got loud and busy as each of the boys woke up and crowded around the table. You giggled as you stepped back and watched them.

“Baekhyun! Give me my bacon!” Chanyeol yelled. “Get it, Baekhyun Bacon” He giggled as everyone groaned at his pun.

Baekhyun stuffed the bacon inside Chanyeol’s mouth “Here, eat it and stop talking”

“Wahhh, you made all this Kyungsoo-ah” Luhan said as he ate his waffles.

D.O shook his head before walking towards me and placed his arm around my shoulders “Not me, it’s all thanks to this pretty lady next to me” He said as you blushed.

“I knew you were the one” Kai smirked as he ate his eggs. “Marry me, Minah” he proposed.

You laughed and picked up a piece of bacon and shoved it into his mouth “No, now eat the bacon” you said as you patted his right cheek.

“One of these days, you’re going to love me back” Kai mumbled, still chewing the bacon.

“Don’t hold your breath, darling” You smirked as the rest of the boys laughed. You looked around and noticed that your brother was not present, probably still asleep.

“I’m going to wake up, Minseok Oppa” You told the boys as you walked to the room you two shared. You opened the door and walked towards your brother’s bed.

“Oppa” You shook him, nothing.

You tried again, nothing. You smirked as you picked up a pillow and hit his head. You saw him move before rushing to get up. He opened one eye and looked at you. He groaned and went back to bed. “Let me sleep, Min-min” You smiled; you haven’t heard that name in years.

“But Oppa, if you don’t get up the guys are going to eat all the food I made” You frowned as you heard his sigh.

He finally got up and hugged you. You giggled and hugged him back “Good morning” He whispered as he continued to hug you “I’m so glad you’re here”

You laughed “So cheesy” You pulled away “Come on, food time” You took his hand and dragged him towards the kitchen. He sat down next to Luhan as he handed him a plate.

“Here, I got you one of everything before it’s all gone” Luhan smiled as he handed your brother the plate. Your brother took it and mumbled thanks. You were so glad that Xiumin had Luhan; you were delighted when you find out that Xiumin found a member he was able to connect with. You made a note in your head to hang out with Luhan to get to know him better.

“What is the schedule for today, Hyung?” Sehun asked Suho. Before he could answer you spoke.

“You guys have a cf to shoot today, all day” You said as they all looked at you. “What?” You asked as Lay spoke up.

“You should just be our manager” He said as you smiled.

“No, be our mum who makes us yummy food” Chen smiled.

“We already have one, Chechen” Luhan informed him “Kyungsoo-Umma”

You smirked at you looked at D.O “No, if you guys prefer Minah then fine replace me” He pouted as Suho walked over to him to comfort him.

You laughed “I’m sorry, I refuse to be the mother of 12 boys”

“Men” Tao corrected me as you poked your tongue at him.

“You’re all older than me” You pointed out.

“Fine, you can be our cute maknae” Baekhyun smiled “Who takes care of us too” He added as he winked at you.

“I will not be your cute anything, I don’t do cute” You said which caused your brother to snort and gag on his juice. Luhan patted his back.

“Stop lying so early in the morning, sis” Xiumin smirked “Minah, is the queen of cuteness” As they all looked at you. “She’s a walking cuteness”

“That doesn’t even make any sense” You told your brother “Lies, you tell lies”

My brother smirked as the rest of them continued to listen. “Oh wanna bet?” You looked at your brother and challenged him. There was no way he could prove his theory. Your brother pulled out his phone and after a while you heard your voice.

You gasped as he played it for everyone. One year for your birthday you bothered your brother the whole day because you missed him so you kept calling him and left him messages using some aegyo. You were shocked to find out that he kept those messages.

“Oppaaaaaaaaaa” It played as you blushed “Oppaaaaaaaaaaaaa” This time the members couldn’t help but start laughing “I miss youuuuu, I wuv youuuuu” That was all they heard before you snatched the phone off of your brother’s hand which ended the message.

“Yah!” One of the members yelled “I wanted to hear all of it!” Chen whined as you continued to blush.

“Uh no, I think that’s enough for today or forever” You told them.

“What was that about not being cute?” Kai spoke looking at you.

“Shut up” You mumbled as you blushed “I’m going to go get ready” You whispered as you quickly left them in kitchen still hearing them laugh. Stupid Exo. Stupid Brother.

After getting ready, you saw the Exo members all in the living room and all dressed up. You didn’t realised it took you so long to get ready. As you walked out, all eyes were on you. There was silence which made everything awkward. Did they not like what you were wearing?

 

“Is my outfit that bad?” You asked them as you frowned. Immediately they all shook their heads and blushed. After a while it was Kai who spoke first.

“You look beautiful, Minah” As he blushed which made you do the same. “Wow” He added as you bit your lip, a habit whenever you felt shy or nervous. Sure you were used to guys complimenting you but now, standing in front of Exo and them complimenting you was different. They made you feel shy.

“Th-Thank you” You smiled.

“You cannot wear that out” Someone burst you bubble. You looked at your brother and frowned.

“What’s wrong with what I’m wearing, Oppa?” You asked him as he shook his head and walked towards you before circulating around you.

“That dress is too short and those heels are too high and it’s chilly outside and you’re wearing a strapless dress?” He commented which made you feel sad and angry and also embarrassed that he was doing this in front of s. He made you sound like you were dressed inappropriately.

There was silence before you scoffed.  “My dress is not too short, I’m wearing wedges and not heels and lastly if you looked at my arm, you will notice I have a jacket that I was going to wear once I stepped out of this room” You looked at your brother as you began to fidget in your dress. Maybe it was too short and are my wedges to high perhaps? You shook your head trying not to feel self conscious. You put on the jacket and faced everyone.

You bowed before speaking “I’ll be going ahead first, have a good day” You told Exo and you avoided your brother’s eyes and began to walk out.

“Do you want a ride? Hyung is on his way, we can drop you off at your meeting” Suho asked you.

You shook your head before facing the leader with a sad smile on your face. “I think I’ll just take a taxi, wouldn’t want Exo to be seen with this” You said as you gestured to yourself, then left. As soon as you closed the door you leaned on it, biting your lip. You forced yourself not to cry. You’ve always been self conscious, yeah a model who’s self conscious. Growing up you were bullied for being the chubby kid or that one girl that no boy ever liked. So as you got older, you started to take care of your appearance more and you were always afraid of what people would say about you and how you looked so hearing your brother say things like that really hurt you because he was family, he was suppose to be on your side. With a sigh you began to walk away from the dorm.

Xiumin’s POV

The look on her face killed me. I blinked before falling on the floor as someone helped me up and sat me down. I placed my face in my hands as I sighed. I looked at the members who were looking back at me.

“Did I overreact?” I whispered as I frowned.

“Ya think?” Sehun answered as I closed my eyes.

“Sehun-ah!” Suho warned the maknae who sighed and faced me.

“I’m sorry, Hyung” Sehun mumbled

“It’s okay, you were right” I spoke as I noticed Lay walking out the room. “It’s been years since we’ve lived together you know and I guess she’s older now” I stopped as shook my head.

“I’m such a bad brother” I said.

“You’re not a bad brother” Luhan spoke. “I think that it’ll take time for things to adjust for both of you” I sighed again “I mean for the last few years, you two lived your lives separately and it’ll take time to get back into it but it’ll be okay”

I nodded “Should I go get her?” I asked the members as we heard the door shut.

Lay was back and before questions were asked, he spoke “Minah is fine, I gave her my number just in case there’s any trouble and she gave me hers so I’ll check up on her, don’t worry Hyung” The quiet member smiled.

I walked to Lay and hugged him as he chuckled “Thank you” I mumbled.

“It’s alright, she’ll be alright Hyung” Lay added as I pulled away.

“Wow, impressive Yixing Hyung” Kai smiled.

“Yeah, good thinking” Suho added.

Lay blushed as he told them it was nothing. I was tempted to call her to apologize but I knew that she was still mad and she wouldn’t want to talk to me. Everyone got ready to head out to our schedule as we hopped inside the vans. I was sitting next to Luhan when he put his arm around my shoulder and squeezed it.

“She’s going to be fine, Minseok” Luhan said “I’m sure she wouldn’t want you to think about this too much and lose focus for today” He smiled “Just sort it out when we get home tonight” I nodded.

Your POV

I was on my way out of the building when I heard someone call my name as I turned around, I saw Lay running towards me. He stopped in front of me and smiled.

“Is there something wrong, Oppa?” I asked him as he shook his head. He smiled and pulled out his hand. “Give me your phone”

Confused you handed him your phone. You saw him fiddle with it before handing it back to you. You looked at him still lost as to why he did that. He smiled and spoke “I put my number in there just in case you needed anything today or whenever” I smiled as he continued “I know that you probably don’t want to talk to your brother right now and since you don’t know anyone else yet, I’ll be your helper”

You smiled as you looked at him, smiling at you “Oh can I get your number too?” he looked down “To uh- you know, check up on you” He bit his lip as he looked at you. I swear you felt your palms sweat as you nodded and recited the digits to him. After that was over, he smiled once more and waved you goodbye.

As he walked back to the dorm, you couldn’t help but scream out “Thanks, Yixing Oppa!” To which he looked back and smiled again before disappearing.

You tucked your phone back into your bag and walked out. As you stepped out of the building, you were met by three girls clad in uniforms and they did not look happy.

“Who are you?” One of them asked you looked at them.

“Are you talking to me?” You asked them.

That did not go down well “Yeah, who else dumbo?” One of the others spoke. Instantly you felt yourself getting angry. Who did they think they were, being rude? You weren’t in the mood for a fight so you just side stepped and walked towards the road to hail a taxi but of course, they didn’t let you go leave quietly. They blocked your way once again. You sighed and looked at them.

“What is your problem?” You asked them.

“Who are you? Are you here for Exo? They’re ours!” The girl in the middle told you.

Oh so they were Exo’s fans instead of getting angry you laughed as they all looked at you “You don’t need to know who I am and newsflash other people live in this building” You smirked “So why don’t you head back to school before you girls are late” You tried to walk away again before they stopped you. You were getting pretty frustrated with these girls.

“Stay away from Exo! They’re ours!” They said as they parted, letting you go. It looks like they weren’t going to school. Those must be the fans, your brother told you about. According to Minseok Oppa most fans were lovely and welcoming but there are some who are too obsessed and scary, they think they own Exo and anyone who they didn’t know were not welcome. I wonder how they’ll react when they find out that one of the members is your brother. You began walking again before you heard the same voice call out “Yah! Wait!” You groaned, when were they going to leave you alone? You sighed and turned around only to jump slightly as you saw how close they were to you. Why didn’t you hear them walk towards you, they were indeed scary.

“What is it now?” You asked them “I really have to go”

“It’s you” One of them pointed to me “You’re the girl who went to dinner with them last night!” They screamed as you flinched, they were too loud.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about” You lied, wanting to leave and get to your meeting.

“Don’t lie to us” One of them poked your shoulder. Okay you were getting pretty pissed off, it didn’t help that you just had a fight with your brother and now these girls were going to make you late for your meeting.

“First, don’t touch me” You shoved her hand away. “And second, whatever business I may or may not have with Exo is none of your concern” You smiled “Now, if you’ll excuse me I have to get going. Have a nice day” You smiled again as you walked away, hopefully for the last time.

“We’ll be watching you!” One of them screamed as you continued to walk away. When you hit a corner, you quickly hid and placed your hand on your chest. Your heart was beating erratically, that was a scary experience. It looked like they were going to harm you if they found out you were connected to Exo. You didn’t want to show how afraid you were, so once again you pretended to be strong. Just like you always did. You took a few seconds to calm yourself down before carrying on. You caught a taxi and told the driver, your destination. While you were in the car you contemplated on calling your brother and telling him what just happened but then you remembered you were still angry at him. So instead you called your best friend.

“Well hello there” She answered, trying to seduce you.

You laughed and answered “Well hi” She laughed too before you told her you had some gossip. After you told her, she was not happy.

“I can’t believe those girls” she said as she gasped.

I nodded “I know right, me neither”

“You’re okay though, right?” She asked worriedly.

“Yeah, I’m fine but I’m scared” I admitted.

“Why?” She asked me.

“What will happen when they find out that my brother is one of the members?” I bit my lip “Will it get better or worse?”

There was silence “I don’t know babe, I guess we’ll see” You sighed agreeing with her.

“But I’m sure it won’t be that bad, I mean he’s your brother so they shouldn’t hate you for that” she said. “Unless you start dating one of them” she laughed “But that won’t happen because nobody caught your eye, right?” she asked as you didn’t answer. After a minute she gasped and giggled. “Ms Minah Kim is there someone you like in Exo?” she asked you.

“Maybe I mean No! uh I don’t know” You admitted. Were you interested in a certain member or two?

“Oooh, who?” She asked. “Is it the one who can sing?”

“They can all sing Hyeri, they’re a group of singers remember” You told your best friend.

“Excuse me, for not having Exo knowledge” She said as you laughed. “Like you know any better”

I groaned “I know, I have some studying to do”

She laughed “So at least, give me his name so I can Google his face”

“You are not going to Google anybody’s face” You told your best friend “Besides, I think there’s more than one that I’m attracted to” You mumbled.

You heard Hyeri gasped “Well well well, I see you’re playing the field missy”

I groaned “I’m not playing anything” Your taxi driver informed you that you were nearly there.

“Okay, I gotta go” I told Hyeri “I will talk to you later”

“Alright, say hi to your boyfriends for me” I could just feel her smirking at me but before I could protest that they were not my boyfriends, she hung up on me. I sighed as I arrived in front of the building. I paid the taxi driver as I got out; I smiled as I looked at the building. I am so ready to get back to work. I walked inside the building and walked towards the reception. A lady was sitting at the desk, talking on the phone. She looked up and smiled at up. I smiled back and waited. When her conversation ended, she put down the phone and looked up at me.

“Hi, my name is-“

“Kim Minah, right?” She smiled at me.

“How’d you know?” I asked her as she stood up and walked in front me.

“How can I not know who you are, dear” She smiled at you “You’re pretty famous in the modelling business” she explained as you blushed. “We’re so happy that you chose to work with us”

I smiled at her “I’m so honoured you wanted to work with me” You told her.

She smiled again “Come on, I’ll take you to see everybody” You nodded as you followed her. As you two were waiting for the elevator you asked for her name.

“Lee Minjung” She told you. “But you can call me Unnie, Ahjumma doesn’t suit me” She winked at you as you giggled.

“Of course, Unnie” You smiled at her.

You arrived at the floor and as soon as you walked in, everybody looked at you. You bowed and greeted them. As soon as you spoke three people surrounded you and took you from Minjung’s hands. “We’ll take her from here, Unnie” One of them faced her and bowed. Minjung bid you farewell before leaving. The three people led you to what looked like a conference room. They asked you to sit on the couch before surrounding you again. It sort of freaked you out when they just stared at you like that. They must have noticed it because they laughed and introduced themselves.

“Hi, I’m Eunji” She waved, she had long black hair and a pretty smiled. “I’m such a big fan of yours!” You blushed as you thanked her.

“My name is Bora” The other girl said, she had short red hair and her eyes were beautiful.

Then the last of the three spoke “Hello, my name is Greg” He said as you looked at him puzzled. “I know what you’re thinking, what is a pale American boy doing here” he smiled

“Oh no-“I started to say, I didn’t want him to think that I had some sort of issue with him. Heck I lived in America for half my life, I had nothing to say.

He just laughed and continued “It’s alright, I moved to Korea at a young age and I’m into fashion too so yeah” He smiled at you. “Also I’m gay” He said in English.

You just looked at him still shocked with everything that just happened. “Yah, you’re scaring her Greg” Eunji punched him.

“Oh no, I’m fine” I smiled “I’m just overwhelmed, give a minute” You said as you took a deep breath and then laughed “Okay, I’m good”

You got up and bowed “Hi, I’m Minah and I’m looking forward to working with you” you sat down again.

“Beautiful and Polite” Greg said in English as you blushed and thanked him.

“No more English please, I can’t take it” Bora groaned as she leaned back.

“The only thing she takes is soju” Eunji told you as Bora hit her. “Ouch” She complained as you laughed.

“So which one of you is my new boss?” You asked them as they looked at you before laughing.

“Oh no, we aren’t your boss” Eunji smiled but before she could go on, two more people walked in. The three of them stood up as you did the same, so one of them must be my new boss.

The two new people in the room walked towards me and stood in front of me. The guy in the suit spoke first “Hello, I’m Park HaJoon and I’m the CEO of this company” He said as he held out his hand. You shook his hand and introduced yourself.

He laughed before speaking again “I know very well who you are, Minah-ssi”

You blushed “So welcome to our company” Hajoon said as he smiled. Is everyone in Korea good looking? “So let me introduce you to your team” He spoke as he asked everyone to sit down around the table.

“So you might have met three of them already” He said looking towards the three people you’ve met before as you nodded.

He pointed to Bora “Bora will be your event leader. All your bookings and events will be handled by her. She will know your schedule at all times and if you have something you need to do, talk to Bora so she can fit it around your schedule. She will inform you daily of what is in your schedule and she will always book your runway shows and photo shoots basically any events in your life, she is in charge of” He pointed as Bora nodded and smiled at you.

Next he pointed to Eunji “Eunji will be your media rep. She will handle any issues regarding the media. If you get involved in a scandal, she will sort it out. If you want to say something to the public, consult her first. Any gossip about you, Eunji will deal with it. All your interviews and appearances will be handled by her”

Then it was Greg’s turn “Greg will be your stylist. He will make sure that you always look your best at any events that you will attend. He will also sort out any issues you might have with some of the clothes you might wear in the future. If you are not comfortable in some of the clothes that might be given your way, don’t hesitate to tell Greg and he will sort it out for you”

“And lastly” He said as he looked at the girl next to her. “This is YoonMi” He gestured at the girl next to him who smiled at you. You smiled back. “She will be your personal assistant. She will be with you 24/7. She will go with you everywhere. She will be there for you for anything and everything” Hajoon said.

You smiled as Hajoon spoke again “So this is your team, these four will be with you all the time. They are there for you” He stopped talking and looked at you. “Are you okay with that?”

You laughed and nodded “Yes, everything sounds good” They all smiled “I’m excited to be working with everyone”

Hajoon laughed as he got up and prepared to leave. Everyone stood up and bowed “I apologize Minah-ssi but I have another meeting to attend to” He said as he smiled at you. “If you have any more questions, please don’t hesitate to ask the team” You nodded as he opened the door and walked out before peeking back in and smiled “Oh and welcome to the family.” He smiled once again.

“President, aren’t you forgetting something?” YoonMi asked HaJoon.

HaJoon chuckled and winked at YoonMi “I’ll leave that to you, to tell her” Before YoonMi could say another word; he already walked out the door. As soon as he walked out the door, there was silence before YoonMi spoke.

“We have a lot to talk about” She smiled at me. “Why don’t the five of us, go out and talk?” She suggested as the other three agreed.

“Let’s go get food” Greg said as everyone agreed and we all left the building. Everything happened so quickly but as you all walked out to find a place to go, you couldn’t help but smile and felt excited for what’s ahead.

Suho’s POV

After finally arriving at the site of the cf shooting, everyone was directed towards hair and makeup. Suho couldn’t help but worry for the eldest and his little sister. He hoped that their little argument would be fixed by tonight and seeing the way Minseok looked; He could see that he wants to sort everything out as soon as possible. However something else troubled Suho, he didn’t know whether it was wrong or not but he actually liked the way Minah was dressed today. He could tell that she knew how to dress well and carry herself. She looked absolutely beautiful and when she walked in, he couldn’t help but want her. No matter how many times he wanted to deny it, he knew that he was attracted to Minah the only thing now is should he pursue this feeling? Is Minah even interested in him?

“Alright, you’re done” Their makeup artist said to Suho as he moved away to make room for the next member. He sat down next to Kyungsoo who was on his phone, he must have sense that something was bothering the leader as he put down his phone and faced Suho.

“Hyung, are you okay?” Kyungsoo asked him.

“I think so?” Suho answered honestly “I’m confused”

“About what?” Kyungsoo questioned.

Suho sighed and shook his head “It’s n-nothing”

Kyungsoo placed his hand on his shoulder “You know you can tell me anything, right?” The younger member said.

Suho smiled “Yeah I know, I just have to figure it out for myself first” Kyungsoo nodded and got back on his phone.

“Has my sister texted you?” Suho heard Minseok asked Yixing.

“Not yet, Hyung” Yixing said. “But, I’m sure she’s fine” He assured him as Minseok simply nodded and stared at his phone, perhaps hoping that Minah will txt him.

“Okay guys before you start filming, we need to have a quick meeting” Our manager informed us as we all nodded.

Eventually everyone was ready to film but before that everyone gathered around and sat down as our manager spoke with us. He smiled as he delivered us good news. “So as you know I went to a meeting this morning” He spoke as we nodded “Well, I’ve just been told that a cosmetic company wants Exo to be the new faces for their campaign!” As we all cheered, excited for the new project.

“What’s the company, Hyung?” Sehun asked him.

“Etude House” Our Manager answered. “You’ll be replacing SHINee”

“Does that mean Krystal and Sulli will be replaced too?” Chanyeol wondered.

Manager Hyung nodded “They will replaced with a new female lead”

“Just one?” Kai inquired.

“Yeah they said this time, they’re going with the 12 of you and one girl” Hyung said. “Okay that’s it for now, we’ll discuss this more when we get home” We all got up, getting ready to film.

“Will you let us know who the girl is when you find out, Hyung?” Tao said as the Manager smirked and nodded.

We all began to walk out when a phone began to ring. Suho turned around and saw that it was Yixing who picked it up.

“Minah!” Suho heard Yixing say. He watched as Yixing concentrated on the phone call and nodded when needed.

“Oh really?” He was smiling. “Okay, I’ll get Manager Hyung to txt you the address soon” Yixing laughed. “Alright, see you soon Minah and be careful!” Yixing hung up as Minseok ran to the younger member.

“What did she say?” Minseok asked. “Did she sound mad?” Yixing shook his head.

“She sounded very happy” Yixing smiled. “She’s about done with her meeting so she’s going to come here afterwards to watch us film” Minseok nodded. “And apparently she has great news to share!”

Minseok smiled “Okay that’s good, Now I can work properly knowing she’s alright” Yixing put his arm around Minseok’s shoulder.

“See, everything is good” Yixing said as they walked in front of Suho. Suho realised that it was only the three of them left as everyone else got out already. “Come on, Leader Hyung” Yixing put his other arm around Suho’s shoulder “Let’s go film!” All three of them walked with a smile on their faces.

Your POV

We finally found a restaurant nearby; we ordered our food and began chatting. It was YoonMi who spoke first “So how do you like Korea so far?” She smiled at me.

I smiled back “It’s been great, as soon as I arrived here I never realised how much I’ve missed it here”

They all nodded “I’m so excited to work with all of you” You said.

“Me too!” Eunji said “We’re going to have so much fun and we’re going to become a family!”

You laughed as you agreed. “Why don’t we get to know each other then?” You suggested as they agreed. “But there’s something that’s been bugging me for a while now” I said.

“Is it about our President?” Greg asked as he smirked.

You blushed and nodded “He looks so-“You tried to find the right word.

“Young?” Bora helped you as you nodded.

“How old is he?”

“The President is 24 years old” YoonMi said. He’s around the same age as your brother. “He’s the only son of the previous president and when he got too sick, he took over”

“Oh” You said as you nodded. “Then next question Unnie, what is your relationship with the President?” I smirked; I sensed that there was something going on there. When I mentioned this the other three all had smirks on their faces.

YoonMi blushed “N-nothing” she stuttered “We’ve been friends since high school and that’s it”

“Really? You two never dated?” You asked.

She shook her head “Never have and never will” she mumbled.

You decided to drop the topic for now as the food arrived. “So what happens now?” I asked them as we began to eat. “Are we going to go look for a project?”

They all shook their heads “There’s already a new project lined up for you” YoonMi informed me.

“Already?” I asked shocked, that I already got a project.

“I don’t think you know just how popular you are in Korea, Minah-ssi” Eunji pointed out.

“You don’t need to be so formal with me” You said “Wait, are you all older than me?”

“What year are you?” Greg asked you.

“94” You said.

They all gasped “What?! You’re only a 94?” Bora asked you as you nodded.

“Wow, such a career at a young age” YoonMi said as you thanked her.

“We’re all 90 liner” Bora said.

“Oh that’s the same age as my brother!” You smiled.

“That’s right, you have a brother” YoonMi smiled. “What’s his name?”

You weren’t sure whether to give them his stage name or his real name. Would they even recognize his real name? You decided to go with his real name “Minseok, Kim Minseok” You looked at them, waited for their reaction. It looked like they didn’t know.

“Oh that’s a nice name” Eunji smiled.

You nodded “So I guess it’s Unnie and Oppa” You smiled at them as they nodded. “Why is everyone that I meet older than me” You mumbled.

“What do you mean?” Greg asked.

“Yesterday I met my brother’s friends and everyone was older than me, even two who were 94 liner were still older than me” You told them.

“I’m sure, you’ll meet people your age soon” YoonMi smiled at you.

“I hope so” You smiled “Although in my industry, there are hardly any of them”

“Oh!” You were startled as YoonMi spoke “I wanted to tell you about your new project!”

You smiled “What is it?”

“You have been chosen to be the new face for a very well known cosmetic company!” YoonMi beamed as the four of them cheered.

“Really?” You smiled, getting excited “What company?”

“Have you heard of Etude House?” YoonMi asked you.

You nodded “Yeah my best friend loves their products!” You clapped your hands “This is so exciting!”

“Oh but wait, it gets better!” Greg smirked.

“Oh my goodness, yes!” Eunji added.

“I bet you’re going to enjoy this!” Bora smiled.

“What?” You faced them.

“You’re going to be working with a group” YoonMi said

“A group?” You asked. “You mean like a Kpop group?” They all nodded.

You giggled “Who?” You asked, getting excited.

“Are you ready for this?!” Greg asked as you nodded eagerly.

“EXO!” He screamed as other people in the restaurant looked at your table. You stared at him, not believing the news.

“Are you for real?!” You were so excited, you asked Greg in English to which he laughed and answered.

“For real!”

“Oh my goodness” You said

“I’m going to be working with Exo?” You asked again looking at them.

“Are you excited?” YoonMi asked you as you nodded.

Excited? Heck yeah! I can’t believe my first project is with such a big company and I get to work with my brother and his friends! It must be my lucky day! I’m so excited! I wonder if they knew yet.

“Does Exo know that they’ll be working with me?” You asked YoonMi.

She shook her head, perfect “Not yet, there’s a meeting tomorrow with everyone to sign the contracts” She looked at you “Why?”

You smiled and shook your head “Oh nothing, is it okay if I quickly make a phone call?” You asked them, not wanting to be rude. “It’s just, I promised to call a friend to say I’m doing okay since it’s my first day here and all” I looked at them.

YoonMi smiled “Of course, go ahead” You excused yourself as you found a quite spot to talk to Yixing Oppa.

The phone was ringing, you were so excited that you just wanted to tell them straight away but you wanted to surprise them and to make up with your older brother. Yixing picked up after the first few rings.

“Yixing Oppa!” you smiled as you spoke and told him you were okay “Uh do you think it’s okay for me to visit you guys at your cf location?” You bit your lip “It’s just I’m nearly finished with my meeting and I have some great news to share” You smiled again. You jumped for joy when he told you it was alright and that he will get Manager Oppa to text you the location so you could go there afterwards. You smiled once more as you both said your goodbyes. For a minute you leaned against the wall and just thought about everything. You’ve been so lucky for everything to be working out for you and Exo. You couldn’t wait to tell them.

“Minah-ah!” You heard someone yell your name “Hurry up before your food gets cold” YoonMi yelled as you walked back to your new friends. Now you had to think, how were you going to tell Exo the good news?
