IU panted as she walked while carrying three boxes stacked on top of another. After letting out a sigh, she let out a nervous giggle. “This job is kind of hard.”

“What are you talking about? Isn’t this job easy?” Walking beside IU, Seok-hyeon nonchalantly threw his banana peel in front of her feet.

“But Seok-hyeon…” She stepped over the peel while scoffing at the little boy.

“You’re too cocky!” Irritated by her attitude, he straight up stuck his foot out and successfully tripped her.

“Omo!” Everything fell and she quickly stood up and chased after the boy. “It’s hard because I have to take care of you all day!”

She continued to chase after him until someone caught her eye. “Omo? Isn’t thi-“

“I can’t find my breath spray…” Tiffany pouted. “I think I forgot it at 2PM’s dorm.”

IU let out a weak giggle. “That night was a blur.”

Tiffany nodded in agreement. “Right?! I woke up in my car with Seok-hyeon by my side!”

“Isn’t that Tiffany from SNSD?” A group of girls passed by and squealed.

IU watched the fangirls longingly as they walked by. Smiling, Tiffany poked her nose. “Don’t give up.”

Surprised, IU looked at Tiffany with wide eyes. “What do you mean?”

“You have a talent. Just don’t give up.” Tiffany gave her famous eye smile with Seok-hyeon giving a thumbs up.

IU hummed as she skipped down the street. “Tiffany is such a nice woman. Feels like I got my hope back again to work hard in music. Omo?”

“I- IU?” Wooyoung looked at her shocked

“W- Wooyoung?” Her eyes widened.

“What are you doing here?”

“What are YOU doing here?”

“Well… We’re in front of the JYP building…”

A sweat drop formed on her forehead as she looked up at the building beside her. “A- Aigoo…”

“Then… What are you doing here?” He asked as his cheeks turned pink.

“To be honest, I think I just came here subconsciously…”

“Oh…” He grabbed her wrist and began to walk. “Then let’s just go in.”

“Bwo?!”

“You’re here so you might as well practice.”

“Wait! I’m not-“

Still holding her wrist, he stopped walking to face her. His eyebrow twitched with irritation. “Then why aren’t you struggling to pull away? Are you thinking of just quitting being an idol and staying as that woman’s part-time manager?”

She shook her head. “Ani!” After a while, she turned away and pouted. “… So… You’re still motivated because of that person you admire?”

“Ani.” He smiled. “I’ve already forgotten about her. I haven’t seen her in years. She probably doesn’t even remember that promise anyway.” After letting out a breath she didn’t even know she was holding in, she couldn’t help but smile. He smiled in return. Turning around, he began walking again while dragging her with him. “Then let’s go practice together! Pali!”

Her cheeks turned bright pink as she followed behind him. “Um… O- Okay…”

“Dancing is so exciting!” Wooyoung stretched his arms as he and IU crossed the street.

IU’s eyebrow twitched with irritation. “Only people who can dance says that.”

“Oh! You two are coming back together?” Nichkhun spotted them on the other side.

“We’re coming back to the dorm from practice!” IU waved happily at him, as Wooyoung smiled beside her. "Are you going somewhere?"

“That’s exciting." He petted her head and smiled. "I'm going to the grocery store to pick something up real quick, so you two go on ahead.” After waving, the two started to walk up the stairs and Nichkhun watched the two. “Looks like those two are okay now. They really are the cutest when the get along…” Like a jolly father, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

Jun.K breathed in the fresh air outside of the dorm. Looking at the beautiful view, he took out his phone to take a picture but something caught his eye. "Ah! Turtle! What are you doing here? It’s dangerous. Eh?” The turtle slowly crawled away with something in its mouth. “Isn’t that… Ah! Wait up Turtle!” Trying to catch the turtle, the turtle slipped away and fell all the way down the long flight of stairs and eventually went out of sight. Jun.K’s face filled with worry. “That’s Tiffany’s breath spray. I have a bad feeling about this…”

“It’s been a while since I practiced anything with music. I feel all rusty,” IU sighed, as she and Wooyoung continued to walk up the stairs.

“Don’t worry about it,” Wooyoung replied. “I think your singing and guitar playing are perfect like always.”

Her cheeks turned bright pink. “Jinjja? You really think so?”

“Ah!” Wooyoung caught something before it continued to fall. “It’s Turtle!”

“What’s it holding on to?” IU picked the thing from its mouth. A sweat drop formed on her forehead. Why was it carrying the breath spray?

“Its expression is always so calm…” he said as he observed the turtle. “Hmm… Looking at it reminds me of someone…” With an elated face, he looked at her. “Hyunwoo!”

She laughed in response. “Maja! You’re right!” Calming down, she took a few steps up the stairs and smiled while looking at the sunset. “I wonder if Hyunwoo is alright?”

“He should be fine. Although he’s kind of weak, he already has a pattern of his life.”

“Now that I think about him, I feel like having a drink together,” she giggled.

“Yeah right. You mean drink orange juice because you’re not legal still?” he chuckled back. “Now that I think about it, that trip was pretty fun…” As his laugh faded, he looked down and fidgeted with the turtle in his hands. “IU… About that trip…”

She tilted her head. “Hm?”

“You said you liked me. Is that still true?”

“Omo?” Her face instantly turned bright pink. “Th- That-“

“So…” After putting the turtle down, he walked up to the step below her and pulled her glasses off her face. “Is it still true?”

Turning red from how close he was, she averted her eyes and began to stutter, “I m- mean… I never gone out and actually said that I- I like you, so…”

“Bwo?” His eyebrow twitched with irritation. “So it’s not true?”

“That… About that…” She closed her eyes shut as she felt like her cheeks were about to melt from how much she was blushing. “Umm… about that…”

He started to pinch her cheeks hard. “Just answer my question!” he managed to say through clenched teeth.

Desperately trying to get out of his grasp, she cried, “Ah! It hurts!”

Letting go, he scoffed. “I don’t like you very much…”

Her jaw dropped from how shocked she was. Grabbing onto a small piece of his shirt, she looked at him with worry as tears began to well in her eyes. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

“But…” A small chuckle slipped out as he gently rubbed one cheek with his thumb. “I don’t really hate you.”

“Bwo?” Her eyes widened as her cheeks turned pink. “Wait a minute, don’t you think you’re being a bit vague and playing with my feelings?”

Pinching her cheek that he was gently rubbing before, he snapped back, “Look who’s talking when you couldn’t answer my question before.”

“Wae? Stop it- Omo!”

“Look out!”

As she was struggling to break free from his grasp, she lost her footing and he successfully caught her by wrapping an arm around her waist. He held her body close to him as she placed both hands on each of his shoulders. Her heart started to beat fast as she looked at his lips and then to his eyes. “Oppa,” she managed to breath out, as she closed her eyes.

“IU,” he breathed back as he slowly leaned in closer to her lips.

On the side of the staircase was a car driving through the forest. Both of their eyes shot open, as they both looked questioningly at each other. “Bwo?” They both turned their head to the side to see the car losing control and heading straight towards them. A sweat drop formed on her forehead as this seemed familiar.

“AAAAHHH!!” Jumping out of the way with her in his arms, he yelled at the car. “What the hell was that?! Ah-“ His eyes widened as he saw the driver. “T- Tiffany?”

“Eh?” Tiffany stared back from the drivers seat with a small stream of blood dripping from her face. “Wooyoung…?” Awkwardly putting a hand up, she waved. “Annyeong.”

“Omo?” IU looked at Tiffany, then turned to look up at Wooyoung as she was still in his arms. “How do you two know each other?” Having a bad feeling, she began to feel uneasy and get cold sweat. “Unless…”

“What’s going on?” Jun.K ran down the stairs with Chansung, Junho, and Taecyeon behind him.

[A/N: Aww~ And after the two started to get along again after their jealousy fight... Who else misses Hyunwoo btw? He was such a fun character to write]
