Chen looked over at a sleeping Xiumin; his upper half was completely uncovered, because he was sleeping so deeply he didn’t seem to notice the morning chill that filled the room.  One arm lay above his head on the pillow, while the other hand rested, palm up under his cheek. Chen smiled when he looked at Xiumins’ hair, it was going all different directions, but then again, after last night he wasn’t surprised. Chen wished that they could just lay there forever so that he could stare at the red haired angel sleeping in his bed.He turned over just enough to look at the clock and had a mini heart attack. It was 5AM, Xiumin had asked him to wake him up at 4:30. Chen turned over, his hand gently gracing over Xiumins arm. “Minny,” he whispered in a sing-song tone.“Mmmm?” Xiumin hummed, his eye brows raising but his eyes not opening.“It’s time to wake up Xiu.” Chen watched as Xiumin stretched up, his abdominal muscles flexing. Chen wanted so badly to reach over and run his fingers singly along each line but he knew that if he did that much with his half sleep induced state he wouldn’t be able to keep himself from continuing what had happened last night.“Mmm, what time is it.” He groaned, running his hand through his hair, eyes barely open.“It’s 5.” Chen watched Xiumin closely to see his reaction.Xiumin sat up like a shot, his eyes flying open as he looked over at Chen, then the clock to make sure he hadn’t been lying.“Oh shit, I’m late.” Xiumin practically jumped out of bed as he threw back the covers. He ran around the room collecting his clothes as quickly as he could before beginning to put them on.“Can’t you just call in sick?” Chen asked. Sitting up and watching Xiumin rush about. He slipped on his underwear and shirt then slipped on his pants (with difficulty) before he buttoned his pants while looking at Chen, his face completely serious. “In my job, I can’t even afford to be actually sick.”Xiumin looked around for his bag; Chen assumed and pointed to the place where it sat in the chair by the door. Xiumin slipped the strap on his shoulder as Chen slipped his legs over the side of the bed, running a hand through his hair. He would also late for work but he assumed since he was the boss he could make his own hours.He watched as Xiumin checked and assured that he had everything before he walked over to Chen. “Go back to sleep, you still have a while till you have to get up.” Xiumin leaned in and kissed him quickly and gently before heading to the door. “I’ll see you later!” he called.“Okay! See you!” Chen called, standing up. He felt that he had never seen anyone get dressed as fast as Xiumin just had. He shrugged, as long as Xiumin got to work on time he supposed that it didn’t matter if he was wearing the same clothes as yesterday. He smiled smugly as he thought; at least he hadn’t ripped  any of Xiumins’ clothes; so he wouldn’t be missing a piece of clothing today, although the idea had crossed his mind the night before.***Xiumin was trying to hurry up and finish his work, getting all the information when suddenly Chanyeol burst through the open door of his office. “What do you want Chanyeol?” He didn’t look up as he continued what he was doing.“The boss wants you.” Xiumin froze when he said that. Did he know? Was he going to be fired? He slowly turned to Chanyeol as his computer shut down.“For what?” He asked somewhat worriedly.Chanyeol shrugged. Xiumin grabbed his bag, slinging it over his shoulder and following Chanyeol to his bosses’ office. What did he expect; he knew that his boss would have to see him eventually. He took a couple deep breathes, it would probably all be fine and since he was good at his job he would probably be able to keep it and everything would go on like normal.Chanyeol didn’t even stop to knock; he just walked right into the office, Xiumin right behind him.  The door closed once they were inside; Chanyeol went over to the couch on the side of the nicely furnished and well organized office, but Xiumin just stood there, looking at the finely dressed man in an expensive suit who sat behind the desk; sorting through papers scattered everywhere on his desk.The man looked younger than he had originally thought him to be. As he kept looking at him he noticed that his boss looked very familiar; but from where? He couldn’t quite see his bosses face but there was just something about him that he knew, but Xiumin couldn’t put his finger on it.Suddenly the man spoke, “I forgot to give you this—” m style="line-height:1.6;">‘Oh no.’ Xiumin thought, m style="line-height:1.6;">‘there is no way that that it could be.’  He froze on the spot when his boss looked up and their eyes met.m style="line-height:1.6;">‘Fuck.’  He mentally slapped himself, it was Chen. Not only had he slept with his boss, but twice, and even spent the night at his apartment. How could he be so stupid? After all, Chen HAD said that he worked for a big company.They stared at each other blankly, only blinking occasionally. “Chanyeol I told you to get my secretary.” He looked over at Chanyeol who lounged casually on the couch with a goofy grin on his face.There was a moment of silence as Chanyeol smirked, “This IS your secretary.” Xiumin looked over at Chen whose jaw all but dropped onto his desk. Well now Xiumin was glad to know he wasn’t the only one surprised.Xiumin slowly walked up, taking the papers that Chen was still holding out to him. He backed away, never taking his eyes off the shocked Chen. It was funny that he was still good looking even when he was shocked.Chen relaxed back, “Xiumin will you give us a moment of piece please, I need to speak with Chanyeol alone, after I am done with him I will speak with you alone.” Xiumin nodded, making his way to the door, walking out and sitting outside the office.He pulled out the folder containing his mission from the Dom. His eyes grew wide when he looked at the picture of his target. That styled brown hair, perfect face, brown eyes and designer suit. It was Chen.Xiumin smacked his face. Not only had he slept with his boss, but also the person he was supposed to get rid of, and better yet he had actually been starting to have feelings for him. He was just digging himself deeper and deeper into a hole.***“What the hell Yeol! You lied to me!”Chanyeol looked up from inspecting his fingernails. “I never lied to you.” He smirked.“You told me my secretary was Zoey.” He threw his hands up in the air.“No, I said Xiuy.” He chuckled. “I never said it was a girl.” Chanyeol smirked.Chen stopped, thinking back through all the times they had talked about his secretary. It was true, Chanyeol had never used the words ‘her’ or ‘she’; but then again he had never said ‘he’ either.He smacked his forehead with sudden realization. He only had himself to blame for not asking more specific questions about his secretary. It all made sense now, how Chanyeol knew where his secretary would and wouldn’t be. But the sticky notes on his coffee; the handwriting was so feminine… and what about the hearts? What did that all mean?Chanyeol chuckled; “I told you I didn’t lie.”“I know I know.” He groaned into his hands as they covered his face. He looked up, “why didn’t you tell me it was a guy?”Chanyeol shrugged. “You never asked. Chen smacked his forehead. It was no use getting anywhere with this guy. ‘m style="line-height:1.6;">To fire or not to fire’. He would have to think it out first before irrationally firing the giant.  Chen did have to admit that he did his job well, so… maybe he would keep him after all.“Okay, fine whatever, just get out.” Chen waved him off. He looked up when Chanyeol reached the door, “but we’re not finished yet.” Chanyeol turned to smirk.“We never are.”  Chanyeol chuckled.***Xiumin stood up when the door handle to Chens’ office jiggled. Oh no, it’s time.’ He was sweating this; here he was, about to be fired. Not only fired by his boss, but also his target and two night stand. If life could get any worse it would probably happen all in the next minutes inside that office.“The boss wants to see you now.” Chanyeol looked over at Xiumin with a grin. ‘m style="line-height:1.6;">Creeper’, he thought. He was the one who had practically hired him anyway.m style="line-height:1.6;">/ Xiumin sat outside the door waiting his turn. He had seen so many other girls who had also been waiting with him came out, take their stuff and leave without another word. Some even came out crying. Now he was thoroughly worried.m style="line-height:1.6;">“Next.” A voice from inside the room boomed. Xiumin stood up shakily and proceeded into the office. He slowly sat down, setting his credentials in his lap with his hands together. The person in the chair swiveled around to face Xiumin, clasping his hands together on the desk in front of him as he smiled at Xiumin. Xiumin noticed how tall he was as he sat, so that would probably mean he was a giant when he stood. His curly hair was wild and in disarray, it kind of looked as though he had just gotten out of bed.m style="line-height:1.6;">They just sat there staring at each other for a while. He didn’t understand why those women had looked so distraught when they came out of the office; he looked like a nice guy. But then again he hadn’t spoken yet.m style="line-height:1.6;">“You’re hired.”m style="line-height:1.6;">Xiumin almost had to do a double take, “Wh-what?” He asked confused, surely he had heard wrong.m style="line-height:1.6;">“I said you’re hired.” The man grinned down at him.m style="line-height:1.6;">“But don’t you need to see my–” He pulled out his credentials and set them on the desk when suddenly the man cut him off.m style="line-height:1.6;">“No.” He shook his head. “I just know.”m style="line-height:1.6;">Xiumin was stunned, he had never heard of a boss hiring someone without seeing their records first.m style="line-height:1.6;">“How soon can you start?” The man behind the desk stood up and Xiumin followed.m style="line-height:1.6;">“Tomorrow.” He repliedm style="line-height:1.6;">The man reached out and shook his hand firmly, “Welcome to ChenMin firm Xiumin, am I correct?”m style="line-height:1.6;">Xiumin nodded, how did this guy know his name. Well he had left a voice message for the ad for the job so that could be it.m style="line-height:1.6;">“So should I just call you boss then, Mr…”m style="line-height:1.6;">“Oh no, I’m not the boss, he’s out today.” The man smiled toothily. “Just call me Chanyeol, we’ll be working together from now on.”m style="line-height:1.6;">Xiumin only nodded, unsure of what to say as Chanyeol walked him back towards the door. “I’ll see you at 5:00AM sharp tomorrow.” Chanyeol patted him roughly on the back. “This job ain’t easy, but it sure isn’t boring.” He assured before closing the door behind Xiumin as he grabbed his stuff and left. /Xiumin walked back into the office, Chen looked up when he closed the door. “Sit.” He motioned to the chair sitting on the opposite side of the desk.Xiumin slowly took a seat. “How long have you been working here?”  Chen asked.He shrugged, “Ever since you put out the ad for a secretary.”Chen looked surprised. Was it really THAT weird to have a male secretary?“Why didn’t you tell me that you worked for me when we hung out?” Chen asked.“To be honest, I didn’t even know.”“You didn’t know who your boss was?”Xiumin crossed his arms. “Says the person who didn’t even know his own secretary.”m style="line-height:1.6;">Touché.Chen nodded, “true, true. Well, I guess since I didn’t technically hire you it can be even either way, seeing as how we never saw each other in the office.”m style="line-height:1.6;">Probably because I was trying to be gone by the time you got here so that you wouldn’t find out I was a guy.’ Xiumin nodded. So was he going to be fired or not? Right now he couldn’t tell. “So does this mean, because of a certain something, I’m going to be fired?” He could feel his heart beating in his chest; if he got fired how would he explain to the Dom? Just casually say, m style="line-height:1.6;">‘Oh you know, I just casually slept with the target who was also my boss because I didn’t look at the papers close enough.’  Yeah that would go over well, so well that he’d probably end up dead.Chen sat still for a moment as if contemplating. “Well, seeing as how the only person who knows is Chanyeol, and also seeing as how he kind of set it up, plus he won’t say anything bad… I think you can keep it; since you actually do your job, unlike SOME people.”Xiumin turned in his seat to look out one of the windows to where Chen was staring. Chanyeol stood, talking to one of the women loading the paper tray in the printer. It was true, Xiumin could’ve sworn that he had never seen Chanyeol work, and probably neither had Chen.He laughed as he turned back to Chen, “Yeah, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him do anything productive.”Chen laughed, “Me either.” There was a moment of awkward silence that passed between them before Xiumin spoke.“So…” He went on, “Since I get to keep my job, can I leave now to continue doing what I was doing?” He didn’t know if he should really be asking, but since it WAS his job, and because he hadn’t been fired he thought he might as well get back to work.“Oh yeah,” Chen sat up as if coming back to reality suddenly. “Sure, sorry about all the confusion.” Chen gave an awkwardly apologetic smile.“Don’t worry about it.” Xiumin smiled back. “You were just as confused as I was.”Chen smiled back at him as he made his way towards the door. “Oh and Xiumin,” Xiumin stopped, turning to look back at Chen. “Since we do work together I hope to be seeing you around more often.” Chen winked but Xiumin only nodded before walking out the door.He headed towards the elevator, he didn’t know if that had been an invitation for something else or for wanting to see him actually work in the office. He absentmindedly pushed the buttons as his mind switched between the party Chen he knew and the business target which sat behind a desk. What were they going to do now? They obviously couldn’t keep doing what they had been since they were boss and secretary; he’d seen too many of those movies and it had never ended well. m style="line-height:1.6;">‘Whenever I like someone something always happens,’ He thought to himself. m style="line-height:1.6;">‘First Lay, now Chen.’Xiumin jumped when the doors began to close and suddenly Chanyeol appeared out of nowhere, catching the door and jumping in, ducking just in time and enough to dodge a book that went flying after him. He picked it up, throwing it back before the doors swiftly closed.He turned and grinned at Xiumin. How did this giant always seem to find trouble no matter where he was? “What are you doing?” Xiumin asked.“Going for a lunchbreak.” He grinned toothily.“It’s like five in the morning, why would you be getting lunch?” Xiumin was astounded by this giant idiot and how much of an idiot he really was.“Okay, breakfast break then.”“Nothing is even open, where would you possibly be getting breakfast at this hour?”Chanyeol smirked sideways, “No one said coffee can’t be breakfast.” Xiumin immediately knew what he was talking about. The only coffee shop (shop in general) that was open was Baek’s; and seeing as how Chanyeol had taken a liking to Baekhyun Xiumin knew that he was going for more than just coffee.Xiumin rolled his eyes. “So what about you?” Chanyeol nudged his arm. “Where are you going?”“Out.”“To where?” Chanyeol asked.“To do my job.” The annoying giant asked too many questions.A moment of silence passed between them before Chanyeol spoke. “Hey.”“What.” Xiumin didn’t look at the giant.“You okay? Did Chen say something to you?”“Not really why?”“You just look kind of angry and I thought maybe he had said something rude to you.” The sudden realization hit him. His own confusion about his and Chens' situation was affecting his mood, and he didn’t know whether to be happy, sad, or angry about it.He suddenly turned to look at Chanyeol. “Oh no, nothing like that.” He raised his eyebrows. Why would he say something mean after what they had done together (twice) unless he was a hypocrite of course.A moment of silence passed. “Ya know something?” Xiumin raised his eyebrows but didn’t say anything. “After you and Chen, well you know,” Chanyeol chuckled. “Well, he’s actually been in a better mood lately. I’m glad that you’ve done something for him that no one else could, so… thanks.”Xiumin didn’t really know how to take this. Chanyeol was thanking him for sleeping with Chen? But wasn’t he the one who practically set them up in the first place? Well, if things worked out like how Chanyeol wanted them then that would make one job easier, the one that involved terminating his target. The faster, the better.“hey, and look on the bright side,” Chanyeol chimed in, breaking through his inner thoughts as the elevator door rang. “If you keep having fun, “He winked, “you just may be able to keep your job.”  Xiumin gasped, raising his hand to smack Chanyeol who bolted out of reach as soon as the doors opened. “I’ll catch ya later Xiuy!” He called over his shoulder as he darted out of the door; Xiumin stepped out of the elevator and shook his head. He didn’t like where Chanyeols’ mind was but he couldn’t really do anything about it now could he.He pulled out his cell phone as he walked out of the building, calling that ever familiar number. Kyungsoo answered on the first ring. “Hey Soo, I’ll meet you at the central park okay.”“Okay… why?” Kyungsoo asked from the other end of the line.“Because we’re going to need Baekhyun’s help on this next mission.”“Okay see you in a few then.” Kyungsoo hung up and Xiumin flipped his phone shut as he smirked. This mission was going to be TOO fun.~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~When Xiumin had arrived at the park Kyungsoo was already there and waiting for him on one of the benches. He stood up and waved as Xiumin made his way over. “Hey Soo, you’re lookin’ swell. Xiumin smirked. After all that Kyungsoo had drank he always looked fine the next day and not as if he had been partying all night long.“I could say the same for you.” Kyungsoo gave Xiumin a questioning look. “Someone looks overly cheery today.”“Naw.” Xiumin smiled, “just happy.”“Uh huh…” He paused. “So what did you call me up for anyway?” Kyungsoo asked.“Well I need help in this next case and I need your help, and also Baekhyun’s help.”“Oh?” Kyungsoo raised an eyebrow. “And what would that be?”Xiumin leaned closer, lowering his voice. “Well, this next target has something the Dom needs but…” He paused for dramatic effect, “The man likes m style="line-height:1.6;">“certain things”, except those certain things involve something we don’t have.”“And what would that be?” Kyungsoo asked.He smirked. “Women.”“Oh no, oh no no no. There is NO WAY you’re gonna get me to dress up as a girl.” Kyungsoo slowly began to back away.Xiumin laughed and pulled him back. “Not you. I mean Baek and me.” He saw a sly smile break over Kyungsoo’s face. m style="line-height:1.6;">‘Uh oh, I don’t like the look he’s giving me.’  He knew that smile, and he didn’t like it.“What.” He asked.“So I get to help you dress up?” Kyungsoo smirked.“Not like how you’re thinking.” Now he didn’t want to do it.“Don’t worry.” Kyungsoo patted him on the back. “I have people that can help you with that.” He didn’t know if that was a safer alternative. “But first,” Kyungsoo smiled. “Let’s go get Baek first.”~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~“You want me to WHAT?!” Baekhyun spit out the smoothie he had been drinking. Xiumin and Kyungsoo side-stepped to avoid the flying liquid.“I just need someone to help me.”“Then ask him.” Baekhyun pointed to Kyungsoo.“Well…” Xiumin studied Kyungsoo before turning back to Baekhyun. “He doesn’t quite fit, he’s not… feminine enough.” Xiumin beamed.“I don’t know…” Baekhyun tapped his chin with his index finger, his other hand on his hip.“Oh come on Baek.” He made puppy eyes, “I buy from you every day.” Baekhyun stood still for a moment as if contemplating.“Alright fine.” He said at last. Xiumin smiled as he mentally clapped to himself. “When will you need me?”“I’ll come back around 5:00 PM.” Xiumin smirked.“I’ll see ya then.”***Chen found himself distracted as he worked for the rest of the day. He kept questioning himself; ‘what had he done, and why did he do it?’ He knew that the whole employee-boss/office relationship was frowned upon but he didn’t want to stop seeing Xiumin, m style="line-height:1.6;">‘if that’s what it’s called.’  He hadn’t had anybody that made him happy with just the thought of seeing them since his ex.It was a difficult decision to make. Should he fire his secretary and then date him? Although that would probably end up with him hating Chen instead; or should he just let the whole thing go and look for someone else? As much as this proved to be the best alternative he just felt that he couldn’t do that either.He shook his head to clear it as he grabbed his stuff and headed for the elevator. Suddenly Chanyeol jumped out of nowhere, catching the door with his hand to keep it open. “Leaving already?” He asked with a smile.“Yep, I’m done for today, gonna go home and get some shut-eye.” m style="line-height:1.6;">‘If that’s even possible.’  He thought. He paused for a moment. He had never really thanked Chanyeol for setting him up with Xiumin. He wanted to say ‘thank you’ but he didn’t like saying it out loud since he knew Chanyeol would hold it over his head the rest of his life and that Chen owed him a favor.Chen looked up, “Hey Chanyeol.”“Yeah?”“Take the rest of the day off.”Chanyeol looked surprised, “You mean it?”Chen nodded. Chanyeol smiled, reaching inside the elevator and pressing the Lobby button before stepping back. “See you tomorrow at work boss.”The door closed and Chen relaxed back against the elevator wall. It was just him and his thoughts now, and hopefully later a little sleep.***Hours later Xiumin and Kyungsoo arrived back at Baekhyun’s coffee stand. Even though he had agreed Xiumin could tell that he was still unsure. Once he was all closed up they took off, following Kyungsoo wherever he was headed.Xiumin was pleasantly surprised when they arrived at a middle class looking apartment. It was well taken care of and there were various items that made it look slightly modern yet vintage. It was so close to the street that you only had to take a couple steps and you would be on the sidewalk by a car. Flowers bloomed along the sides of the short steps.They stood out among the drab, colorless other buildings. The door was a shade of purple and it was the only different color from the rest.Xiumin was surprised when the door swung open to reveal a tall blonde. She was taller than Kyungsoo and Xiumin. She could probably rival Baekhyun for height.“Kyungie!” She flung her arms around Kyungsoo, pulling him into what looked like a bone crushing hug.“Hey Jessica, are Yoona and Sunny home too?” Kyungsoo asked.“Of course!” She smiled brightly when suddenly two other girls practically bounced up behind her. One had brown hair and the other had short curly pink hair. Xiumin couldn’t believe how tall they all were, but then he looked at their shoes and it made sense. The girls’ shoes were about nine inch high wedges.“SooSoo where have you been?” The two other girls came forward, enveloping Kyungsoo in a hug.“I have a life you know, I can’t just always hang around here with you.” Kyungsoo laughed.“So who are your friends?” The blonde asked.“Oh. Xiumin, this is Jessica, Yoona, and Sunny.” Kyungsoo motioned from left to right pointing to the blonde, then the brunette and last the pink haired girl. “Girls, this is Xiumin and Baekhyun.”“Hi.” Xiumin gave a slight wave, Baekhyun just stood there silent.“Nice to meet you, Kyungie never brings other people to the house.” Jessica moved forward to shake Xiumins hand and then Baekhyuns’. “Come in, come in.” Yoona motioned for them to follow, grabbing Kyungsoos’ arm and pulling him with her into the house. Yoona linked arms with Baekhyun and Sunny skipped over to Xiumin, linking her arm with his.“Looks like you’re with me.” She smiled brightly, skipping along behind the others, making it hard for Xiumin to keep up as they followed the others inside.~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~“So what brings you here Soo? And with your friends none the less.” Jessica asked as they all sat around the living room.“Well it has to do with work. There’s a job that has to be done, but…. We need a girl.”“Well why didn’t you ask us?” Sunny asked from where she sat on the edge of the couch near Xiumin.“We need someone who is tall and strong, and someone who can also run fast. And let’s face it; wearing the heels that you do is not going to help you in that case.” Kyungsoo laughed.Sunny and Yoona stuck out their tongues but didn’t say anything. “So what is it that you need our help for?” Jessica asked.“Well I need you to help turn my friend Baekhyun over here into a girl and make it convincing.” Xiumin motioned towards Baekhyun.“But you’re already cute, why would you wanna change.” Yoona caressed Baekhyuns’ cheek from where she sat next to him on one of the couches as he looked awkward from the contact.“He doesn’t roll that way noona.” Kyungsoo said.“Oh darn.” Yoona snapped her fingers in disappointment while the others laughed.“So can you do it?” Xiumin asked.Jessica tapped her chin with a finger, “We’ll see what we can do.”  She stood up, motioning for Yoona and Sunny to follow her. “Kyungie you and him wait here.” She pointed to Xiumin. “You’ll have to wait until we’re finished.”“You come with us.” Sunny smiled cheerfully as she grabbed Baekhyuns’ arm and pulled him into one of the side rooms. Xiumin chuckled when his eyes locked with Baekhyuns’ and a look of horror crossed Baeks’ face before they disappeared into the other room.“We’ll try to work our magic and make him beautiful.” Jessica laughed as her and Yoona went into the same room Sunny had, closing the door behind them.Xiumin and Kyuungsoo looked at each other. Now all they had to do was wait.~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~A couple hours later filled with occasional screaming and a little bit of what sounded like sobbing from Baekhyun the other room was silent. Kyungsoo and Xiumin sat up from where they had been lounging on the couch when Jessica walked out, a giant smile on her face. “Are you ready to see the masterpiece?” She asked excitedly.Xiumin and Kyungsoo glanced at each other before nodding to her. As if on cue Yoona and Sunny practically bounced out of the room; followed by a tall thin being in a red and black dress. It was Baekhyun.The two sitting on the couch just stared, not really knowing how to take this. Baekhyun was a very convincing girl, almost too convincing. The dress that he was wearing was bright red beneath a black sheer fabric that had flowers beginning at the waist and increasing towards the bottom; and along the middle section along with a black lace bow that was tied in the middle. The straps were thin and even though he was flat chested, the top insinuated more. He was also wearing a dark brown wig that was straight and long, reaching his upper back with bangs that covered his forehead, stopping at his eyebrows.They were both speechless. Was this really Baekhyun? He looked totally different. Xiumin noticed that he wore high heels, but they were short and not like the girls which were extremely tall. They had also dawned him with bracelets and erring’s along with a simple necklace.“You don’t have to look at me like I’m an alien.” Baekhyun suddenly spoke.Kyungsoo and Xiumin stood, never taking their eyes off Baekhyun as they walked over. “Wow, you look like a real girl.” Xiumin looked closer at Baekhyuns face. “Baek are you wearing make up?”Baekhyun rolled his eyes. Xiumin knew that he liked wearing eyeliner, but he was wearing mascara and eyeshadow as well, along with foundation and blush on his skin and cheeks. “It’s not like I really had a choice you know.”The girls seemed happy with their accomplishment. “Not only does he look like a girl, but he feels like one too.” Yoona beaming, raising his arm to show that he had no armpit hair. “And feel his legs, we waxed him too.” Sunny burst in, leaning down to run her hand along Baekhyuns’ now smooth leg.Xiumin moved forward, “Sorry Baek.” He apologized before reaching down and running a finger along Baekhyuns calf. It was smooth, it was almost like silk, so soft.“Woah,” he stepped back. “They really did everything didn’t they?” He paused, but how did they make the top fit? “How did they give you a chest?” He inquired.“With these,” Without a moment of pause Jessica swiftly moved forward, reaching down inside the front of Baekhyuns dress and pulling out a clear curved object.“Hey, no one said that you could grope me inappropriately.” Baekhyun protested.“Please, I made you this way, I can touch you whatever way I want.” Jessica teased, sticking out her tongue. Baekhyun looked like he didn’t know how to answer that.Jessica handed the object to Xiumin. “It’s a gel cup that is used to take up that extra space in a dress if you have small boobs.” It astounded Xiumin how casually she could say something like that to a stranger she barely knew; he was worried for Kyungsoo’s sake with however long he had to endure life with these girls and their odd ways. She took it from Xiumins’ hand and turned to put it back in Baekhyuns top, fixing it the way she wanted as he stood there looking disgusted by this whole situation, which he probably was.“Thanks so much guys, you did a great job.” Kyungsoo thanked the girls as he, along with Xiumin and Baekhyun walked towards the door.“No problem, it’s always nice to help out.” Yoona smiled.“Come back again soon.” Jessica hugged Kyungsoo, followed by Sunny and Yoona; then they all hugged Xiumin and Baekhyun before they walked out the door. “Don’t forget to walk the way I told you, and remember to sit with your legs together.” Jessica called from the doorway. The girls giggled and waved before shutting the door.Xiumin looked over at Kyungsoo. “So how do you know them?” Kyungsoo didn’t seem like one who would keep company like those girls.Kyungsoo let out a deep breath. “We all grew up in an orphanage together and we lived there from the age of four to about seventeen, they thought I was adorable so when we were old enough to leave the orphanage on our own because we hadn’t been adopted we ended up getting a house together and lived like a family. Then I got a new job and moved out, they continued with what they had for a job before so I don’t really see them as often since then.”“Oh?” Xiumin raised his eyebrows, “And what’s their job?”Kyungsoo looked over at him with a serious face. “Show business.”“ohhhh.” It suddenly hit him. They were great at their job with looks, they had made Baekhyun look beautiful in such a short amount of time, he could only imagine the torture that Kyungsoo went through as they grew up together. Xiumin chuckled.“Whats so funny?” Kyungsoo asked.“So, “Xiumin couldn’t help himself from chuckling as he spoke, “when you were growing up did you look as pretty as Baekhyun does now?” Kyungsoo smacked his arm and laughed.“Hey, you know while you’re reminiscing I’m over here stuck in a dress and heels, can I have a little sympathy please?” Baekhyun broke in.“You can have a lot more than a little bit from me.” Kyungsoo chuckled, patting Baekhyun on the back.~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~They arrived a couple hours later at a small club on the edge of town. It was beginning to get dark and the lights for the low maintenance club were beginning to be turned on.  Xiumin had only been here once before so he didn’t really know the person he was meeting. This wasn’t the first time he would meet with a stranger, but it was the first time that he would be meeting one with some of his friends accompanying him.It kind of scared him knowing that he was actually putting his friends in possible danger. Even though Kyungsoo worked in the same business, and probably did the almost the exact same things he did, it still bugged him that it was his mission and he didn’t have just his life on the line.As they walked up to the door Xiumin tied his black bandana around his arm because usually when wearing a suit the gangsters would do that to show their rank but still appear as a businessman of high class. Even though most everyone knew that if you were in the mob then you were far from high class. But rank was kind of the same as in regular society.The bouncer at the door stopped them. Not saying anything, just holding up his hand to show for them to stop. Without any of them saying a word Xiumin walked in front of Kyungsoo and Baekhyun, lifting his arm just enough to show his bandana. The bouncer nodded once and moved to let them go in. Xiumin watched out of the corner of his eye as the bouncers eyes followed Baekhyuns’ slim figure saunter by without giving the bouncer a second, or even first look. He kept himself from laughing under his breath at the look of disappointment that crossed the bouncers face before he moved on to the next people who had walked up.When they were inside Xiumin looked around the interior. It was obvious that it was a low class club, not something as fancy or extravagant as Kris’ club. There were a couple people but not many. There were various girls that walked around the club, they were obviously dancers; but what was sad was that Baekhyun in this form looked prettier than all the girls in the club, what was worse is that all the eyes of the men trained in their direction to get a good look at the tall, long haired brunette who just stepped through the door.As he searched the room for a particular being he noticed as a man stood up and made his way over to Baekhyun who was admiring one of the lava lamp paintings that hung on the wall.“Hey gorgeous, can I buy you a drink?” The man was tall, taller than Baekhyun, dressed in a fancy black designer suit with what looked to be an expensive watch on his left wrist and golden cuff links, His black hair was slicked back from a long day at work. He winked at Baekhyun.Xiumin couldn’t describe the look of disgust that crossed Baekhyuns’ face as he looked over at the man. He wasn’t an ugly man but since Baekhyun was obviously not interested he was a little harsh. “Um no.” Baekhyun put his hands on his hips, “I don’t want your—”“Sorry, she’s with me.” Xiumin cut in, linking his arm with Baekhyun and giving the man a smile. He didn’t want Baekhyun to blow their cover.  The man looked down at Xiumin, giving him a look of sheer disappointment that the prettiest girl was with one of the shortest man he had seen; and he was probably not including Kyungsoo who was a couple inches shorter than Xiumin.The man raised an eyebrow as he looked at Baekhyun and then shrugged before walking away. When the man was far enough away Xiumin smacked Baekhyun on the arm, causing him to grab his arm and turn abruptly to Xiumin with a disgruntle look on his face. “Ow, what was that for?” He whispered harshly.“Can you please not try to blow our cover, we could be killed ya know.” Xiumin whispered back harshly. When the look of realization hit Baekhyun Xiumin added, “And try to act more like a lady, change your voice a little more and flaunt your non body. I’ll need you to be flirting with my client while we have our little chat.”Baekhyun nodded and then felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned to Kyungsoo who pointed towards the upper balcony where there were three men finely dressed and the one in the middle had a red bandana tied on his right arm. It was him, the man they had come to meet.The man looked down at the place they stood, when he saw Xiumin he smiled and waved them to come up. Xiumin lead the way, followed by Baekhyun and Kyungsoo behind him. It was safer for Baekhyun this way.“Ah, are you the one who called for an appointment?” The man patted Xiumin on the back when they all stood on the second floor.“Yes yes that was me.” Xiumin smiled. It was best to be friendly and on the safe side instead of giving them the cold shoulder and having them after your life if you displeased them in any way.He saw out of the corner of his eye as a look of confusion passed between Kyungsoo and Baekhyun with his unnaturally friendly greeting to a complete stranger.“Come; let us talk in my office.” The man led them towards a room hidden in the darker lighting on the second floor. No people were in this part of the club so it must have been a more private area. The man walked in, followed by Xiumin, Baekhyun and Kyungsoo, the other two men who had been accompanying the owner of the club stationed themselves outside the door on both sides.The man motioned for them to sit; because there were only two seats Kyungsoo offered for Baekhyun to sit in one of the seats but the owner of the club took Baekhyuns’ hand and led him to the other side of the desk, sitting down and pulling Baekhyun so that he sat on his lap.Kyungsoo smiled, but Xiumin knew it wasn’t just to be courteous; it was because of how uncomfortable Baekhyun looked where he sat.“So gentleman, what is the reason for this pleasant visit?” he asked. “I came for the contact between you and the Dom, he asked for you to sign it.”“Ah yes. But who says I’m going to sign it so easily?” he joked. They watched as the owners hand moved up Baekhyuns’ leg and probably a little ways under his dress before Baekhyun smacked his hand, smiling cutely as he pretended to flirt. He flipped his hair with his hand and giggled. Yep, he was plying it; and playing it wellXuimin smirked. “Maybe a trade can be in order.”The owner seemed to contemplate this and finally nodded.  “What is it that you had in mind?” He tapped his fingers on the desk casually.He thought for a minute, he hadn’t really thought of what to make a deal about. Well he did have Baekhyun, and the man liked to flirt with women who were hard to get. Which, in this case the “woman” would be damn near impossible.  “How about a date with my companion?” Xiumin motioned towards Baekhyun and smirked when he saw Baekhyuns’ look of disgust.“I like that. Day?”“Tonight, say about an hour?”“Three.”“Two“I could raise it to five.” The owner smirked.Xiumin laughed, “Alright deal, three.” They shook hands.“Now, about that document.” Xiumin watched the owner move his hand up and down Baekhyuns’ arm. Baekhyun glared Xiumin down as he pulled out the document, sliding it across the desk with a pen.Without pause the owner picked up the pen and signed it quickly before sliding it back to Xiumin who tucked it back into his bag.  “Nice doing business with you.”“Same.” The owner nodded to Xiumin as he played with Baekhyuns’ fake hair.  “Give me one moment.” The owner reached forward, pressing an intercom button on his the phone that sat atop his desk. “We’re closing early tonight, so start shutting everything down for the night and get people out.”There was a faint m style="line-height:1.6;">“yes sir” on the other end of the line before it beeped, signaling that the other person had hung up.“Time to start our date.” The owner winked at Baekhyun who faked a giggle.~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~For the next three hours Xiumin and Kyungsoo watched Baekhyun and the man from a distance. Because he knew that they were watching he hadn’t tried anything sneaky so far towards Baekhyun apart from the occasional caressing of the arm or hand over their dinner. From where they sat Baekhyun looked as though he was actually having a good time, he would laugh and flirt back with the man.m style="line-height:1.6;">‘Is this what a stalker or an overly attached girlfriend would normally do?’  Xiumin asked himself. This was such an awkward situation, just sitting here and watching someone else on a date.Finally once the three hours was up Baekhyun bid farewell to the man and made his way over to Xiumin and Kyungsoo as the man took off in his fancy and expensive looking high class car.“So how was your date?” Xiumin snickered into the coffee he was drinking.Baekhyun threw a white business card onto the table between Kyungsoo and Xiumin as he sat down in the other chair, crossing his arms and legs in frustration. “He liked it so much that he wants to have another and even gave me his phone number.”  Sure enough, when Xiumin flipped over the card there were numbers scrolled on it with the mans’ name.“You’re not going to do it are you?” Kyungsoo asked as they all stood up. They were going to head back to the girls house who had helped make Baekhyun look like a girl and have them make him look UNlike a girl.“No way.” Baekhyun shook his head furiously back and forth. “You think I’m crazy? Ain’t no way I’m going through that again, it was hard enough enduring listening to him talk about how much money he has and how great he thinks he is.” Baekhyun rolled his eyes. “Now I kinda feel bad for girls and what they have to deal with from men.”Kyungsoo patted him on the back and laughed. “Well now aren’t you glad that you’re not a girl? Now you can value what you are and not what you aren’t.”“Thank god.” Baekhyun let out a breath.Xiumin laughed, but when he looked up he was surprised by who was walking in their general direction. It was Chanyeol.“Hey Xiuy what’s up. Heya Kyungsoo.” He waved at Kyungsoo before his eyes found Baekhyun and ran up and down his body, inspecting him as if he were a stranger; which at this point to Chanyeol, he was.“Who’s the broad?” Chanyeol motioned with his thumb to Baekhyun who gasped and crossed his arms in annoyance.“Broad,” he scoffed, rolling his eyes, “who are you calling a broad.”Chanyeols’ jaw dropped open at the sound of the masculine voice that came from the woman with the petite frame. He looked between Xiumin and Baekhyun and again a second time just in case he had been mistaken.“Chanyeol, its Baekhyun.” Xiumin looked at Baekhyun who refused to look at the giant.“Baek, but how— when—why are you dressed like that? What happened?” Chanyeols’ words tumbled out of his mouth, his brain not quite processing that it was actually Baekhyun who now stood before him.Kyungsoo chuckled to himself. “I was helping out a friend.” Baekhyun said plainly, finally looking at Chanyeol but not uncrossing his arms.“Oh, okay; well then I guess it’s all…right…” Chanyeol still looked unsure even though he said it was okay.There was an awkward moment of silence that passed between them before Chanyeol finally spoke up. “Hey Min, do you need Baekhyun for the rest of the night?” He turned to Xiumin.“Uh… no, why?”“In that case I’m going to be stealing him from you then.” Chanyeol grinned as he stepped up, quickly grabbing a surprised Baekhyuns’ arm.“Oh, alright, just don’t get him killed okay.” Xiumin called as Chanyeol and Baekhyun became farther and farther away.“Don’t worry Xiuy!” Chanyeol called. “He’s in good hands.”Xiumin rolled his eyes and smiled as Chanyeol disappeared with Baekhyun around the nearest corner. He didn’t really consider Chanyeol as someone who was safe, but he assumed that since Chanyeol seemed to have a thing for Baekhyun that he wouldn’t let anything happen to him.~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~Kyungsoo said goodbye and headed home so Xiumin decided that he should probably do the same. The walk was quiet and he had time to recollect his thoughts over today’s weird occurrences; especially the one where he had learned that his target/boss was also a person he had slept with more than once and someone he seemed to have slight feelings towards.He shook his head as he walked into the house that he was currently sharing with Sarah. “Sarah I’m back!” He called. Not knowing where to expect her in the house.“Welcome back! Did you have fun the past days?” He heard her giggle. “Dinner is in the fridge, you can pop it in the microwave.”“Okay.” He called back as he rummaged through the fridge, grabbing what he wanted and using the microwave like she had said. Once his food was warm he joined her in the living room where she sat on the couch curled up in a blanket and watching a movie.She smiled as he sat down beside her and he couldn’t help but smile back. She was his only family and for some reason he felt a special connection with her. “When did you get the microwave?” he asked as he began to stuff food in his face; it was nice to have real food and not just coffee.“This morning.” She smiled. “I thought it would be more convenient. And no,” she cut him off when he was about to speak. “You don’t get to know where I got the money to buy it, but all I’ll say is that it wasn’t illegal.” She laughed.He stuffed more food in his mouth and just nodded before looking at the TV. “Do you wanna watch a movie?” she asked.“Sure, whatcha wanna watch?” He asked.“Whatever is good with me. Any favorites?” she asked.“Um, how ‘bout this one?” He picked up a DVD that sat on the temporary coffee table, handing it to Sarah and she put it in.They sat in silence as he finished his food and watched the movie. Before long he found himself asleep, his head resting in Sarahs’ lap as she watched the movie and gently stroked his hair like a sibling would.He dreamed of the day’s events, everything running through his head, feeling almost real as he relived the day all over again through his dreams. He was thankful for Sarah, she seemed to take all his stress away and he was glad that she could be here with him to help relieve his tiredness after a long day.***Chen found himself having a restless night as he tossed and turned. The face of Xiumin popping up in his dreams, making him unable to think about anything else.He sat up abruptly, looking over at the clock. 1:50 AM. He ran a hand through his tousled hair. At this rate he was lucky if he got any sleep at all.He found himself waking up every hour until it was time for him to get up and get ready for work. He was sluggish this morning and contemplated even going to work. Suddenly his phone went off and he answered, “Yeoboseyo?” He asked still slightly sleepy, his eyes half closed.“Mr. Kim, I have some important news.” It was someone from the crime bureau.His eyes flew open. “What is it?”“We have found that someone has been distributing information through the mob; they have been one step ahead of us in hiding information that is crucial to the case. We can’t seem to quite track down his whereabouts but we think he may be in our system somewhere. I will meet you later today and discuss this matter with you further.”“Alright, thank you.” Chen closed his phone with the other line hung up.  A rat inside the system eh?  He or she must be really smart in order to not get caught for this long with being in the system. But untraceable, now that was tricky, they really had to know what they were doing.He dressed quickly and headed off to the office. Who could possibly be behind all of this? He wanted to get down to the bottom of this case before anyone got seriously injured.~ ~ ~Yay! another update. Sorry it took me so long. I felt bad for not updating at the beginning of the month, I hope you forgive me.*begs on knees* So anyway... Now Baekhyun knows what Xiumin does, although... without too much detail. I don't really know what else to say, I felt like the chapter was a little chopped up more so than the others; since I've been busy its been difficult.Oh! so I decided to add a couple of the girls from SNSD because who doesn't love people who are a bit eccentric XD. So you get to see a little of Kyungsoo's background \(^0^)/. I hope you like the chapter (or if you don't that's okay too) :) I'll hope to update soon, I have 3 more weeks of class before my break!! Also I just found out there is a new show coming out here and it's called "Gang Related". I read the dicription and it sounds exacly like this fic, I wonder...I'll check it out more when it finally comes out. Well I'm off to go write my 10 page paper now, Have a great day!!!
