The next days were stressful to say the least. Besides choreographing and dancing all day long, me, Jackson and the boys gathered all together in their room to discuss the dating issue everyday. Even when they were exhausted.

Park Jinyoung-nim also came sometimes to talk to us and we all decided that if Jackson and I were sure this relationship was for the long run, then we really should go forward with it.

So unfortunately, I had to step out of my internship and trust both of these men. Jackson already scheduled a flight to Hong Kong for me to go with him and discuss with his colleagues if there was a way of me getting a job. Basically, he scheduled an audition for me

Mixing work with our relationship really was something that scared me.. I was scared I would let him down and disappoint his team if I got the job.. even more so, I was scared we wouldn't be able to separate work problems from our private life, bringing then even more issues

I talked to him about it and Jackson seemed to be having the same concerns I was. We promised eachother we would do out best and both fight for the same cause.. being together in the end

We finally ended up flying to it. The night before he looked extremely nervous pacing back and forward non stop in his room before coming to bed. I on the other hand spent it quiet.. I felt like the expectations were high. I had to prove to other people that I wasn't just Jackson's girlfriend.. and I had to prove that I was good at my job

He must've noticed that I was a wrack of panic inside my head. I was going through my resume quietly against the headboard of the bed when I felt him touch my leg

"I'm sorry" was the first thing he said to me

I frowned turning my head towards him. He had a soft smile on his lips and his eyes looked like they were shining as they jumped between mine "Wh-What? Sorry for what?"

He took in a deep breath and looked away as he rubbed the skin in my leg "You're nervous and I'm not helping you.."

I chuckled "You can't help me.." I mumbled rolling my eyes "I can't ask the boss for advice.. it would be cheating"

"But I'm your boyfriend.." he exclaimed "I should be calming you and telling you that you'll do great.."

I laughed nervously "Please don't get my expectations high" I chuckled "It's fine" I mumbled putting it all on the side before leaning towards him "just.. hold me" I asked wrapping my arms around his waist and smushing my cheek against his chest

"I know you're gonna be great. You're always amazing." he mumbled while caressing my arms

I kissed his chest "I just hope I don't disappoint. I'm scared the others will accept me just because I'm your girlfriend. I don't want that. If I'm not good enough, then someone should take the place"

"I told them to be as professional and fair possible Haeju. I'm the one you should be concerned about" he chuckled making me frown

"And why's that?"

"I'm the bad boss" he chuckled looking down at me "You should be intimidated by me" he giggled making me roll my eyes

"Sorry, but you have nothing of intimidating for me. All I see is a big cuddly bear" I chuckled squeezing him out

"Yah! We're gonna have a problem with that! You're gonna ruin my image of being a hustler" he joked

"Oh no..." I sarcastically said watching him pick up the TV remote "But do you.. do you think I can do it?.. answer me as my boyfriend, I need encouragement.."

"Didn't you tell me to not get your hopes up?" He chuckled

I whined and he squeezed my body rolling on top of me as he screeched that I was so incredibly cute

"You're such a bad boyfriend, I swear"

He kissed my cheek a million times moving them towards my forehead and sometimes my neck

The next day I woke up earlier and went to the living room to listen to the song I was going to perform a few last times before the big break.

I was getting more and more nervous by the second so I tried to distract my mind by doing other things, including cleaning and making our lunch since I knew Jackson was tired from the flight and it was almost 1pm

I was putting the pasta inside the water when I felt two arms wrap around my waist and soon a low and grumpy "Good Morning" came out if his lips

"Hum.. doesn't sound like you're in a good mood" I chuckled and he took a deep breath nuzzling his face onto my neck

"I woke up to a cold bed"

"But a full plate" I chuckled stirring the meat for a few minutes

We both ate breakfast peacefully. He asked me how I was and if I was nervous so I told him everything I was feeling and he listened. He cared and the favt that he actually told me what went trough his mind even with him being the one I had to work for later, made me feel like we could actually be able to mix work with our relationship. That it wouldn't bring us down

Time passed and the audition went by smoothly. It was weird to see him behind the desk. He would be judging me along two other people I didn't know and due to our current status, he had to pretend he didn't know who I was, making things a little awkward, but nothing out of this world

After it I had to wait for him as he talked with his colleagues. I walk down to the small coffee shop and ordered for me. The audition didn't go exactly as planned but it was done and I couldn't do it again.

After around 40 minutes I finally received his call asking me where I was and that he would meet me in there

I heard shuffling behind me at the same time I was placing my order down. A small bouquet with flowers appeared in front of me making me look up at my beautiful boyfriend's smiley face

"For me?"

He nodded "You did a great job! I'm proud of my girlfriend" he giggled sitting down in front of me as I took the present from him

"Jesus, they are beautiful!" I answered as I looked at them. My eyes started wondering around "But isn't this like.. too obvious? We're in public, and you don't have a mask"

"Relax.. it's still in the company's building.."

"But it's not in Team Wang" I replied looking around to see if anyone was looking at us

"Haeju, babe.. calm down" he answered touching my hand and grasping my attention "Can't you just.. tell me you like them but not as much as you like me?.. or something cheesy like that?.. you know.. like a normal girlfriend would do after a present of congratulations from her boyfriend.."

I put the flowers down and sighed "I'm so sorry if I'm worried about your career.. silly me" I sarcastically remarked making him inhale deeply "but I love them, not as much as I love you though?" I answered nastily

"If you keep up like that, you won't get the job" he mumbled making me roll my eyes

I picked up my drink "I'm going for a walk.. see you at night" I mumbled turning my back around and leaving the establishment

I walked down towards the elevators and then proceeded to exit the building. I felt so annoyed at Jackson's remark about me not acting like a normal girlfriend, how could he be so childish?

How does he expect me to act when we have a relationship like this?

I was so furious that I didn't even look where I was going and suddenly, I found myself lost in the middle of Hong Kong..

With a dead phone..
