Part III: Day V (1/1)

JinHee arrived at the venue early, she wanted to run through the clothes she had prepared and make sure they were ready for when they boys arrived and the concert started. JinHee was just as nervous as SuBin as it was their first concert they had worked. SuBin was preparing the metal rails for the clothes to be hung on, taping each band members name on one end and placing hangers on each metal bar."We will be so organized Su, tonight will be a breeze" JinHee laughed trying to reassure herself. If she told herself everything would be fine and work out well it would, well it would relax her at least.JinHee opened the first case and started pulling out the outfits she had prepared, steaming them free of any wrinkles and hanging them on the correct rack. SuBin caught JinHee smiling when as she prepared Jiyong's clothes "Still think of him as just a friend?" "Well we're something in between" JinHee said bashfully, not wanting anyone else to know. JinHee wanted them to be more than friends, she wanted to tell everyone that they were together but knew it was not possible. She had issues that she needed to work through first, she was just fortunate that Jiyong knew about these and was willing to give her the time and space she needed. Things were moving along slowly, a pace was set for their blossoming relationship at one that they both liked. Although it didn't stop JinHee from imagining her and Jiyong as a couple. "As long as it makes you happy" SuBin replied honestly JinHee and SuBin had just come back from retrieving the last case of clothing when they heard music from the stage area and headed closer to check out the sound check. They stood on the side of the stage and managed to catch the last few songs. JinHee couldn't keep the smile off of her face as she watched Jiyong give his all, even if it was just a rehearsal. He turned suddenly and caught her eye, his serious expression softening immediately. The girls left just before they finished as they still had work to do and time was quickly running out. "Jin, wait up" Jiyong called out after her"I'm busy Jiyong, so are you" JinHee said turning around"I just want to apologize for not being able to organize something for this week, I don't know about you but spending time with you is the highlight of my week" Jiyong said, the last sentence was said quietly but loud enough for SuBin to gasp in excitementJinHee turned and gave SuBin a look, which caused Su to continue walking towards the dressing room."But I am spending time with you" JinHee replied "Anytime we get together is special"Jiyong just grinned and wrapped an arm around her shoulder "I have some time to kill before I have to be fitted for my stage outfits but we can't be late, my stylist is bossy!""Ya!" JinHee said pushing him"I'm joking, although I don't mind you being dominant every so often" Jiyong winked "Stop, someone might hear you" JinHee whispered"Good" Jiyong replied "Let them hear, I don't care"JinHee shook her head as they walked towards one of the backstage rooms "This isn't the dressing room Ji" JinHee said as he led her somewhere different"I know, it's much quieter" Jiyong replied unlocking the door and leading her inside JinHee was surprised to see a small room with a sofa, more like a love seat. A coffee table was in front of the seating and a TV was positioned on the wall. "I know you haven't had lunch today and might not have time for dinner" Jiyong said closing the door and taking a seat on the sofa. JinHee sat next to him and watched as he removed the bento boxes from the paper bag and handed her one."Thanks" She replied opening the container and eating "I didn't realize how hungry I was until I saw this food""You need to look after yourself, what would I do if you passed out?" Jiyong tilted her head"Well you would have SuBin to dress you" JinHee laughed"I don't want SuBin" Jiyong smiled "I want you"JinHee and Jiyong's time was short, they spent an hour watching TV and eating sushi hiding from the chaotic backstage area. JinHee would watch him onstage for a short while before running back to the room just before they came off to change their outfits. He would smile at her as she handed him his clothes but the conversation was sparse, too many people and too much noise. SuBin hugged JinHee when the boys had left for their encore, they had successfully finished their first concert dressing the band. "You should go wait for him to come off the stage" SuBin said as JinHee started packing away"No, we have too much to do" JinHee said "It will look strange, I'm not his girlfriend""It won't look strange, you're his stylist!" SuBin cried "He'll be happy to see you""No, let's just get this finished" JinHee said "It's been a long day"JinHee had almost finished packing the outfits away, waiting for one of the assistants to bring the clothes the boys wore for their encore so she could pack those and prepare them for the laundry. "Come in" JinHee said when a knock sounded on the doorJinHee turned round and saw Jiyong closing the door behind him "I have clothes"JinHee smiled and showed him where to put them"How come you weren't waiting for me?" He asked quietly"I didn't think you would want to see me" JinHee said"Why?" Jiyong asked puzzled"Too many people and you would be tired" JinHee replied"I would have ignored all of them if you were there" Jiyong said stepping closer to JinHee until his chest touched hers"Sorry" JinHee gulped, his face was closer than it had been in a long time, months passed since their last kiss."Just don't do it again" He whispered tucking a strand of hair behind her airJiyong leant down and placed his lips on hers softly, not wanting to scare her. When JinHee responded to the kiss, he tilted his head and opened his mouth. JinHee grabbed the back of his sweater and gripped tightly, not wanting to let him go. She opened her mouth to accept his deep kiss, his tongue exploring her mouth. The kiss made JinHee feel hot. Jiyong pushed her against the wall, sucking on her neck. His body pressed tightly against hers, not giving her any space to move. Jiyong stopped when a soft moan left JinHee's mouth, he had to stop before he went too far. He pulled away before pecking her lips gently and smiling at her."You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that" He grinned.
