Soona gets a proper meeting with Suho. Soojung attempts to sneak back into the SM Building to return Sehun's phone with another unexpected surprise.

Paparazzi:

Proper Meeting:
 

Soona was absolutely mortified. What on earth had she done? This was her first meeting with Kim Junmyeon himself? Make the recording room door hit him and spill his coffee all over his white Miu Miu shirt? This couldn't be happening. How was she supposed to save this?

"I'm so sorry," Soona bowed again a full ninety degrees which only made her feel even more embarrassed.

"It's okay." Suho chuckled, looking at the coffee that spilled on his shirt, "It's just a shirt."

Just a shirt? That shirt was by the Miu Miu brand, a brand he was an endorser of no less. That was not just a shirt, that was his livelihood! Who knows how expensive that shirt was. That was the shirt she just ruined.

"Everything okay out there?" Soona heard Baekhyun call from inside the recording studio.

"Everything is fine," Suho turned his head to call back to him. He then turned back to Soona and let the door shut behind him. "I didn't hurt you with the door, did I?"

"Oh, no!" Soona said as she stood up straight, "No harm done." 

Soona tried her best to keep her cool. She made sure her camera was hidden in her satchel. She couldn't let him know what she was. 

"Sorry about your shirt," She blurted out. When was she going to stop panicking about the stupid shirt?

"Don't worry about it. I can always get a new one," Suho replied. He brushed it off and smiled at her which made her want to melt to the floor. Kim Junmyeon. The richest member in EXO with a net worth of over ten million USD. Why would he blink twice over a single shirt no matter what brand it was?

 "I know it's none of my business," He said, "But are you new here?"

"Does it really matter?" She replied. She thought her response would come out way more confident than it actually did. It was definitely one of those moments where she didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to tell the truth either. That would make a confident response rather difficult, wouldn't it? Her plan was to go through this building undetected, like a little fly on the wall. Sure, she wanted to meet her idols so badly, but she wasn't prepared for it today. If she was, she wouldn't have brought her camera and maybe could've thought of a better lie. 

"A little bit," He chuckled. Sweet mercy his smile was beautiful, someone send help. He continued, "I didn't get coffee spilled on me by a ghost now did I?"

"No, I guess not," She said. The only way for her to convince him she was okay to trust was to lie to him, if that made any sense. Her fake trainee pass still around her neck, she took it into her hand and showed it to him, "Lee Soona."

"Well then, it's nice to meet you," He said, "Even if you did spill coffee on me."

"I really am sorry." She apologized again. Out of all the scenarios that she made in her mind about how she would meet him, it just had to be this one. What kind of luck did the lord above give her?

"I'm kidding," He laughed, "Believe me, it's no big deal."

Kim Junmyeon, joking around with her. She had to be dreaming. She had heard from ex-trainees about how sweet he was. He trained hard for five years with the desire to prove he deserved to be here as much as everyone else. There was an assumption he was only here for his visuals, so he worked himself to the bone to get the chance to debut. The rumors of SM's next boy group sent so much buzz around the trainees and Suho was sure he most likely wasn't going to make the cut despite his effort. She had heard from these ex-trainees that when he was told not only was he going to debut in EXO, but also be the leader, he burst into tears. What was he feeling in that moment? Disbelief? A sense of burden being lifted from his shoulders? Whatever it was, it proved one thing. Kim Junmyeon was one of the purest and kindest souls she had ever come across. It was the main reason he was her ultimate bias. He was an angel.

"Just out of curiosity," Suho said, breaking Soona from her thoughts, "Was there a reason you were standing so close to the door?"

Oh no, she thought. What lie could she possibly think of to make him believe she wasn't a stalker? "I was looking for someone." Perfect, she wanted to slap herself for that response. 

"Who?" Suho's eyes grew big and round out of curiosity and confusion, which looked incredibly cute. His eyes looked exactly like the most beautiful crescent moons, especially when he smiled. When he looked confused or surprised, they became rounder and yet remained perfectly proportional to the rest of his face. She had never seen a more symmetrical face in her life.

"My younger sister," Soona replied. She tried her best to not stare at his wet-coffee-stained white shirt that was now sticking to him. She really tried but her eyes couldn't help but glance from time to time. Oh how she wanted to put her hands all over him in that very moment. Why must his body be so perfectly sculpted? How was he real?

"Well I was just about to head to the break room to get some coffee for Baekhyun...And I guess for me too now." Suho glanced down at his own wet shirt, "Did you look there yet? I can take you there if you want." 

Suho gestured his hand for her to follow him, "You can also go buy me a new shirt to prove you're sorry."

"I guess that's fair," Soona felt herself internally screaming inside. This couldn't actually be happening. She had to have gotten hit on the head and was currently dreaming, right? If that was the case, then she definitely didn't want to wake up. 

She thought about the others in that moment. She had left them to fend for themselves when they got spotted by the security guard. There was no chance they managed to not get kicked out. She did her best to keep her grin to herself. She couldn't wait to rub this right in their faces.

Soona followed Suho to the break room. She thought for sure that a picture of him with his shirt like this would go viral. She hated that she couldn't snap a picture of him right now. He trusted her at the moment, and she could only imagine what she could accomplish if she were to get even closer to him. She couldn't break his trust yet, so pictures of him up close like this would just have to wait until a better time.

"Since there's no one here, I guess your sister is somewhere else." Suho spoke up, removing the silence in the room. "What's her name?"

"Soojung," Soona answered. "She hasn't ever been in here before, so she doesn't know her way around. Like me I guess."

"Is she a trainee, too?" He asked while he made coffee.

Soona laughed, "No. She's a visitor. She doesn't speak so she can't possibly be a trainee."

"Why doesn't she speak?" He asked, "Medical issues?"

"No. She just chose not to do it anymore one day." Soona hesitated. A great way to gain his trust and attention more would be to give the sob story. Get his sympathy so he won't pay too much attention to how suspicious you're being, stupid. She decided to do it. "It was the day our father died."

"Oh. I'm sorry for prying." Suho apologized

"It's okay. It's always good to ask questions, right? It's how we learn about each other and other things." The next step, was to portray how great of a person she was. It didn't matter if that step was a big lie or not, "If we never asked, we wouldn't know anything."

"Yeah, you're right about that." Suho replied. He couldn't help but admire what she said. She grinned inside again as he continued, "I just didn't want to ask things that make you feel sad or uncomfortable."

"Don't worry. You did no such thing," Soona assured him, "It was three years ago so, no hard feelings."

As the coffee brewed into the pot, she noticed he was suddenly observing her very carefully. He looked like he was trying to place her face somewhere as if he'd seen it before. 

"I know this is the first time we're meeting, but-" Suho said, "I feel lik

Chapter 2: These girls are totally insane and they know it. Climbing into someone's hotel room is bad, stealing their stuff is even worse. The taxi driver was sensible enough to stop driving though the girls got their wanted attention.
