Story 1: Drunk Ye-Jin

Ye-Jin woke up the next morning with a dull headache and groaned. She looked around and recognized the guest room in Kim Oppa's house. She hasn't been here for a while, she thought ruefully. She tried to recall what happened last night. She vaguely remembered drinking beer with the Something in the Rain cast and she recalled hugging Hyun Bin and that was about it. She must have knocked out after that.

She looked at the clock, it was 8am and laid back in relief, it was still early. They had promotion events today as well for The Negotiation and she would need to get ready. She crawled out of bed and went to the living area. Kim Oppa's wife, Kim So Na was already busy in the kitchen.

"Good morning, Onni," Ye-Jin greeted her. "I'm sorry to disturb you last night. You must have woken up just to take care of me."

"Good morning Ye-Jin," Kim So Na looked up and smiled. "Don't be silly. It brings back memories. Here, I made some hangover soup. Have some. Your head must be splitting."

"Thanks Onni, you're the best!" Ye-Jin smiled gratefully. She took a sip of the hot soup and her stomach immediately felt the warmth and relief.

"So, how is it with Hyun Bin?" Kim So Na asked eagerly. She has been a strong supporter of Ye-Jin getting together with Hyun Bin. Apart from the fact that the two of them look lovely together, So Na trusted her husband's eyes for people. He had shared with her his opinion of Hyun Bin. While she won't say that it was glowing – that said, no one will get a glowing review from her husband when it comes to Ye-Jin – he did say Hyun Bin appeared to be of sound character and serious about Ye-Jin. Most important to So Na though, was the fact that she believed Ye-Jin likes him as well. She recalled their conversation last Christmas, Ye-Jin couldn't hide her feelings even back then.

Ye-Jin blushed slightly, "It's going well so far, Onni. He takes good care of me and I enjoy being with him."

Kim So Na smiled mischievously when she saw Ye-Jin blush. She knew her too well. "I take it your relationship is going well both spiritually and physically."

"Onni" Ye-Jin exclaimed and blushed a shade darker.

At the promotion event that afternoon

"Are you feeling okay?" Hyun Bin asked once he saw Ye-Jin.

Ye-Jin smiled sheepishly. "So Na Onni made me hangover soup this morning, I'm fine now." Ye-Jin knew she was going to get an earful from him about getting drunk and had already planned out her strategy. She looked around to make sure they were alone in the waiting room.

She cozied up to him and wrapped her arms around his arm. "I woke up with a terrible headache. I remember now why we shouldn't over-drink. I really suffered..." Ye-Jin sneaked a look at Hyun Bin if he was buying her act.

She was surprised to meet his eyes and quickly looked away. Ye-Jin changed tack. "I only drank so much because I knew you're there. You'll definitely watch out for me, nothing will happen." There, Ye-Jin told herself, this is the best offensive defence. She sneaked another look, and met his eyes again.

Hyun Bin sighed, he can't even pretend to be angry at her. He pulled her into his arms and gave her a yearning kiss. Ye-Jin moaned softly, feeling herself start to melt.

Hyun Bin broke the kiss, conscious they need to be on stage in twenty minutes. He's not going to start something he can't finish. "I'm going to spank you if this happens again." Hyun Bin growled. "And I'm letting you off easy only because you said you missed me even when you were drunk."
