It All Started With A Game (Shownu x Reader)

Chapter 10

"yah! Who were you with?", Minhyuk whined while he still had me in his arms. Jooheon pulled away and frowned at me slightly, "are you serious that you were hanging out with that annoying racer? Why do I feel like you met the wrong person?". I blinked my eyes two times before smiling and nodding, "what are you talking about? Of course I met the right person, he has the same look as to what Mr.Counter said".

Minhyuk pulled away to look at me, "how does he looks like?".

I grinned and held my finger up, "he's tall, he has spiky hair and he wear white and black checkered button up shirt.... he is really sweet compared to what he did in the game". "eh?... did you talk to him about the game then?", Juheon pushed his way to gain my attention as he asked.

I nodded my head again, "of course! That was the first thing I ask when I found him, he even treated me bubble tea", I was happily explaining when my phone rang again. I frowned a little because the call interrupted my talk.

"are you sure he's the right person? You're not making this up, right?", Kihyun asked again but I shushed him with my pointy finger on his lips while my other free hand I used it to answer the call since it's from my papa.

"ne?", I answered the call.

"it's already late, shouldn't you bring them back to the dorm? Ah and I don't want Shownu's girlfriend to be in the dorm since outsiders are not allowed".

"okay papa, we'll see you there then~"

"hahaha~ I'm going to treat them some chicken so don't tell them"

"yes!", I cheered while jumping two times in excitement, then I hung up with a huge smile, "let's go home, papa is mad at us for being late". All of them looked at me with pure confusion on each of their faces.

"the look on your face doesn't tell us that manager-nim is angry", Hyungwon sweatdropped as he scratched the side of his face. "or eomma is just happy that manager-nim is angry at us? Aahh! We should head back!", Minhyuk grabbed my hand and pulled me with him.

"(name)-ah, can Min-ah come too?", Shownu asked as he looked at me. I shifted my gaze from Minhyuk to him, "papa told not to bring in strangers.... that includes her, I'm not being selfish right now but papa said it himself that he doesn't want her to be in the dorm".

"I told you", Shownu looked at his girlfriend while I just turn my head to smile at Minhyuk who was grinning at me before he dragged me to their van.

~Time Skip to a lying reader~

"what should we say to manager-nim so that he won't be angry at us?", Jooheon asked while we stayed in the van waiting for the van to park. "we should just apologize", Shownu said all of sudden after a long silence hearing us out.

"apologizing is of course the best way", I.M nodded to himself before he looked at the others for approval. "besides~ manager-nim wouldn't be THAT angry, right (name)-ah?", Wonho looked at me, "is he really angry at us, (name)-ah?".

I bit my bottom lip while looking down, lying is seriously not my thing, I just had this urge to spill out the truth. I fiddled my fingers and didn't answered him.

"so the conclusion is-!"-Wonho

"manager-nim is really angry"-Minhyuk

"she's so cute"-Hyungwon

"we better get out or he'll be even angry", Shownu interrupted before he opened the door for the passenger seat so he could go out while I.M slide the door open for us to get out.

We quickly rushed to their dorm but since I know the truth I was more laid back than the others. While the others were ahead of us, I.M was walking side by side with me. "tell me... manager-nim isn't angry, right?", he said while looking upfront. I sighed and nodded, "I'm very bad at lying, right Changkyun-ii?".

He chuckled, "I could say that you are a very good liar since the others are fooled, especially Minhyuk-hyung". I giggled and smiled to him, "thank you Changkyun-ii I'll take that as a compliment". The others were already in the dorm while both of us were taking our time to go there.

"exactly who did you met a while ago?", I.M asked out of curiosity. I puffed my cheeks, "the Annoying racer of course, Jooheon-ii told me that both of them were close... actually I read from someone's blog that his group and MonstaX have really good bond with eachother and since I didn't know who they were I didn't recognised him when I first saw him... he's fun".

"......his...group?", he tilted his head cutely.

Just when I was about to open my mouth to say something, the door from their dorm flew open and there comes Minhyuk, Jooheon and Wonho running towards us.

"yah!! Manager-nim wasn't angry at all", Minhyuk whined while he stomped his feet on the ground with a deep pout. While Wonho had his jaw dropped while looking at me, "how could you do this to me????? You liieeeeddd".

"you owe me a hamburger because you lied or I will never forgive you for lying", Jooheon puffed his cheeks adorably while I couldn't help myself but to giggle at their funny behaviour. "mianhae yedeura~(I'm sorry, guys)", I apologized before I pat each of their heads gently eventhough I have to stand on my tiptoes, "but I didn't lied that papa said it was really late, so it simply tells me that I didn't really lie that much".

"aish, but you still lied", Jooheon ruffled my upper hair, messing my hair at that too. "let's just go in before Kihyun finishes the chicken", Wonho sighed out loud before he walked back to their room.

I walked in as the second last because I.M insisted on closing the door.

I sat down with the others, as usual, in between Jooheon and Minhyuk. I grabbed a chopstick and took one small fried chicken before chewing it in my mouth when I accidently choked myself because of Papa's words.

Guess what he said?

C'mon guess it!!!

*sigh*

He asked me the same question he asked a year ago, sometimes I thought like the world is rotating back a year ago except for the fact that a certain someone's change.

He asked who do I like between all these boys. Seriously papa?

I puffed my cheeks and groaned, "I don't have anyone I personally like, I favour all of them!", I cheerfully said while hugging both guys who were sitting beside me. Jooheon and Minhyuk grinned before they did the same to me but me having a petite body, got shrunk and couldn't breath because of them suffocating me by hugging me.

"oh dear", papa said while facepalming, he then focused back on me, "I'm serious.... you've been single for years already... don't make me hook you up with one of them, well excluding Shownu of course since he already has a girlfriend". My eyes widened and my jaw dropped in disbelief, "papa....no.. They are my friends, and friends will always be friends".

He sighed, "then if you don't want any of them, I'll introduce you to someone else.... a group that recently got first place due to their newest comeback".

I frowned to myself.

"I'm letting you be in a relationship since last year but how come a beautiful and gorgeous girl like you couldn't grab any attention from boys?", he sighed in the end, "no complain, I'm meeting you up with other boys from other agencies". "but papa.... I don't know anyone from other agencies", I said with a visible sad voice.

"you'll meet them tomorrow at MCountdown.... you're gonna atleast like one of them, I'm very sure!", papa said with a smile to cheer me up, I look up at him and nodded in the end, as a daughter I have to oblige since it'll make papa happy, if papa is happy, I'll be happy too. I smiled slowly while chewing the chicken slowly, taking my time to think about it, I guess it could be a distraction from me keeping on liking Shownu.

A good distraction?

The best distraction! Papa knows best!
