Tadashi's wandering hand toiled with a loose strand of long silver hair. His eyes glued to the plush parted lips in front of him. Zhi's lips looked so luscious and inviting, he wondered what it would feel like to bit one. An urge to claim those lips and everything connected to them crashed over him. "Your lips were made for mine, Zhi Ruo. They belong to me now."
Zhi's heart melted. His stong hands pulled her in. This was it was it, he was going to kiss her. Her lips have always belonged to him. She wanted to tell him, she had waited all this time for him but she was rudely interrupted.
Many of the fangirls had finally remembered the ongoing singing battle was all for Cinderella and it was time for her to choose her victor. People were already unhappy that the mystery girl was canoodling with yet another guy. "How many suitors are you leading on?" fans questiond.
Jealously blackened Tadashi's face. She only has one real suitor and he is standing in front of her. He hadn't even gotten to kiss her before Zhis whole demeanor changed.
Zhi was confused. "What do they mean?"
Zhi had been without a phone or her beloved laptop this whole trip and had no clue about all the nasty rumors spreading about her online.
Tadashi looked at the pitiful people causing a scene. His eyes shot daggers at everyone that dared to speak up. These people were all wealthy up-and-comers and Tadashi new he couldn't act recklessly. "Zhi Ruo follow your manager back to your hotel, as the CEO of the company you are soon to be signed under, I fear for your safety and insist you take your leave."
Zhi was disappointed by him yet again. Why is everything always so unclear with him. Is he here as my boss or....or as the person that likes me?
Anger cluttered Zhi's mind. "No!" That was his last chance. You can't ignore me for two weeks and then show up and say something so possessive like that and then just turn me away again. What the hell is wrong with him? "I have no reason to listen to you."
Zhi stepped away from Tadashi and grabbed Howins hand and dragged her off. "Howin, I want to dance. let's go back to the other club."
"But people are sure to recognize you there, besides maybe we should listen to Tadashi."
"What do you mean recognize me?"
"Didn't you think that all of those people watching that guy sing to you was weird at all?"
Zhi was surprised. She had ignored all of that for Tadashi's sake.
"Come on. let's get some booze and go back to the hotel. We can have our own dance party!" Howin hoped she would say yes. Howin wasn't ready to get reprimanded by the devil later.
"Let's do it!" Zhi agreed. As long as it was her idea to leave, it was ok.
The next morning
Jin Hyun's manager:
"This is great publicity. Your a genius my boy." The money greedy man continued to praise Jin even though Jin's very talent was being questioned online.
Jin felt pitiful. "How did I let this all happen?"
"Don't fret my boy this is the best thing that could have ever have happened."
"Are you even my manager?"
The money counting manager wasn't even listening. "And look at how the fans love you as a duo pair with this guy. Maybe you should get a partner. We will make so much more money. I always said you needed a group. Just look at how the fans love this rapping guy. You should get him to join you. You know he can sing. And just look at how your fans are reacting to him!" The man was speaking very quickly making it almost impossible for Jin to keep up with him.
"Wait, what? You want me to partner up with this random guy? No way!"
"Don't be so closed minded Jin, this is a golden opportunity."
