Ling's POV

I sat in their studio with EXO and Luhan waiting for the producers with my camera. We were filming for Life with EXO while they worked on their collaboration song.

I tried to forget the events that happened at Luhan's concert but quickly realised that it had been hard for me to look at the members in the eye.

The media hadn't been helping at all. Some had said that some of the members and I were involved romantically due to their quick reaction to protect me, despite the members desperately trying to say that it was what they would've done for any of their fans. Xiumin had it the hardest as he was the first to jump to protect me. Countless blogs and magazines made it clear that Xiumin and I might've been dating. Although in the back of my mind, it didn't really bother me that they would think that, Xiumin has certainly felt the pressure as an idol.

This morning was hectic. I had woken up to hate mail and threats telling me to leave the EXO dorm and to stop seducing the members. The members had tried to hide the mail from me, but the number of letters was so overwhelming that it was impossible.

"Ling," Sehun rested his hand on my knee and I flinched away.

I looked at his feet. "S-sorry."

I buried my face in my hands and took a deep breath. I knew I shouldn't be pushing EXO away, but it was only a matter of time before the fans retaliate against the members. I did not want any if the EXO members to get hurt because of me.

"Ling, none of this is your fault," Suho said warmly. "Please stop blaming yourself."

"I'm not."

"Yes, you are." Xiumin's voice was firm and full of worry. I felt my face grow hot but could not bring myself to look up at him. I held on to my camera and said nothing as we waited for the producers. No one dared to say anything.

Xiumin's POV

The silence was broken by our producer's roar of laughter. "Perfect."

He was a big man by the name of Lee Jihyuk. He headed straight for Ling when he walked in and pulled her to her feet.

"Here is the girl that you are going to write the song about."

Chanyeol stood up abruptly eyes wide. "We are writing the song?"

Jihyuk smiled and nodded at him. "I know none of you are song writers but, it's worth a try."

I glanced at Luhan who was looking at Ling with a worried expression. No matter how hard they tried to hide this, it was pretty obvious that SM was trying to delay Luhan's departure from Korea. I didn't know the reasons behind it, but something tells me that Yong Min had bigger plans than just the collaboration song.

I let out a sigh and straightened up to look at Ling. She avoided my eyes and stared hard at the ground.

A song about Ling, that's easy, I can think of billions of words to describe her.

I thought for a moment, my mind flashed to our kiss in the haunted house and I blanked out of all thoughts.

"I will assign you all to a part in the song," Jihyuk moved behind us to play a soundtrack.

The members stood around the room listening to the soundtrack provided by our producer. It was a powerful and upbeat melody that kept our heads bobbing through the whole song. I closed my eyes and let the music consume me, my mind wandering to Ling and our times together.

Nothing. No words could describe my feelings for Ling, it was an indescribable feeling that even I did not comprehend let alone a few words. I placed a hand to my lips remembering her soft sweet lips on mine and felt my face grow hot.

"Hyung, what are you thinking about," Beside me Lay had already started to write lyrics.

"Oh, this hyung is thinking dirty!" Chanyeol teased.

I shot a glare at them and grabbed a pen and a pad of paper from the table. I made myself comfortable between Lay and D.O and pressed the tip of the pen to the paper.

Still nothing.

I was getting frustrated at myself for not knowing what to write. I swayed to the music racking my brain for a burst of information. I looked at Ling expectantly hoping for her warm smile or even just a glance but there was nothing. She sat there directly opposite from me, staring at her shoe without a word to anyone.

A few minutes later, Ling got all or our attention when she stood up. The members and Luhan looked up expectantly at her hoping for some hint of inspiration to make our writing easier. She moved over to the door and for the first time since the concert, she looked us in the eyes and smiled.

"I'll be back." Her voice was soft and only barely audible over the music looping in the background. We watched her slip out the door and didn't look down until the door closed with a small click.

That alone was enough to squeeze the words out of me. A sudden burst of words exploded into my head, Ling was many things to me, certainly more than the few bars I was restricted to. I smiled and began to write.

Ling's POV

I pressed my back to the door of the room and looked down on my phone. A series of texts were sent to my phone by an anonymous number, all of whom cursed me to die and to leave the EXO dorm. I hadn't mind it before despite how it disturbed me that they knew my number. However, the most recent texts were more than just scary to me.

Chanyeol must really like that teddy bear he's sleeping with.

D.O left his towel in the washroom this morning, remind him to take it won't you?

The more they sent, the scarier the texts became.

I could release the set of pictures I took in the washroom, or even better, how about some photos of them in the shower.

Finally, not being able to take it any longer, I agreed to meet them in person. I walked down the hall and towards the back of the building where we had agreed to meet and talk. I stood outside the back door with my hand clutching my phone close to my chest, just in case the situation gets too out of hand for me to handle.

"You actually came," a familiar voice spoke behind me and I turned in disbelief.

I felt the blood rush from my face and my eyes widened in shock. "It can't be."
