“Did you tell Ravi about this yet?” Leo asked.
“About the dates? Ne. He knows.I didn’t tell him it was you they were arranged with but I think he knows that too. He just doesn’t ask.” You replied.You hated this. You and Leo were both in a bad place with these dates and here you were sitting at another one.
“You and Ravi need to think of something quick. We’ve been going on these dates for two months now. It won’t be much longer before our families decide to announce the engagement.” He said. It sounded almost sarcastic to your ears and that annoyed you a bit. You didn’t want to be here any more than he did.
“We are moving in together next month It just needs to hold off until the- Appa I thought you were at the office today. Yeogiseo mwohaneungeoya?” You asked as your father came strolling up to the table. You and Leo stood up bowing and gave each other a confused glance.
“I can’t stay. I was just stopping by to let you know that your brother’s homecoming is tonight. I hope you will both be there. I know it is a bit of a stretch for you y/n because of the flight to Tokyo in the morning but this is important.” He said. The ‘together’ was implied by the way he looked at the two of you.
“Ne appa. I will be there tonight.” The two of you bowed to him and he left.
“Jenjang. You go on ahead Leo, I’m paying, I have to call ravi anyway.” You told him already dialing the phone.
“Is your brother really home?” He changed the subject not bothering to stand.
“Ne. we had a double date with him and his girlfriend the other day.” You said referring to the breakfast you’d had with Ravi, your brother and his girlfriend about a week ago. You held a finger up as the line clicked on.
“Yeoboseyo?” Ravi’s voice answered.
“Hey can you meet me? Its kind of important.”
“Did he do something?” The anger was clear in his voice and you realized you were crying. How had it gotten this bad.
“Mwo? No. I just…. something came up and I need you to come down here.”
“Alright Jagi-yah I will be there soon. Saranghaeyo starlight.” He said using the silly pet name he had for you.
“Nado salanghae.” you replied and hung up.
“If your brother really is home then the cameras are the least of your worries. Everyone will be at this party. That means Wonsik will be at this party. Are you ready for what that might mean?” He asked.
“I don’t know. How did it get this bad?” you said putting your head in your hands.
“Wait your brother knows about the two of you?” Leo asked and for a moment you thought you saw a hurt expression on his face followed by pure rage, but it was gone almost as quickly as it happened because his phone chirped distracting him.
“Cameras are going to be the least of your worries.” He said.
“Mwo? Leo what is it?” You looked up from where you were picking at your food then heard your own phone chirp.
Jeong Y/N and Jung Taekwoon: Match made in heaven or made for the cameras?
We’ve all heard the rumors about Model/heiress Y/n and Jung company’s prodigal son “Leo” as he is called in the elite’s social circles. These two socialites are definitely an item in today’s gossip but are they really an item or is it just a cover for the real relationship as a way to keep their families happy? There have been several reports of the seemingly indifferent couple arriving separately and with their families enjoying nice meals and happy conversations, but it is what happens after these dates that have caught some of the fans attention… The two being a part of two of the largest corporations often hang out with the rest of the heirs in, Vixx, a local cafe that has caught the attention of up and comers from various high society groups who are looking for a little more casual place to enjoy the day. According to fan accounts and pictures it isn’t Taekwoon that she is close to at these meetings. Some have said she has even been spotted holding hands with Kim “Ravi” Wonsik and getting in his car after the supposed dates with Taekwoon. If you don’t already know, Ravi is Kim Corp’s only son and the possible next heir to the corporate throne, but that’s not all. The CEOs for Kim Corp and Jeong Group have always made it blatantly obvious about the rivalry between them. Could there be a secret merger on the horizon or is this the rebellious act of two starcrossed lovers….. You decide and send in your feedback is this all one big misunderstanding or is there really a secret relationship going on between the corporate prince and princess of Korea. See images below. Updates to follow.
Ravi showed up barely stopping to speak with the host about five minutes later relief etched on his face.
“God when you called I thought that something had happened to you.” He told you.
“Annyeonghaseyo.” Leo said suddenly getting an uncomfortable look on his face.
“hey Leo what’s up?” Ravi asked then froze as his mind caught up with his mouth.
“This is what you needed to tell me? I told you I didn’t want to know who the dates were with… just in case.” He looked over at Leo and you understood what he meant. Just in case it was Leo on the other end of this table. It could have been any one of the group that you hung out with save Hyuk and Ken since they weren’t from rich families. They had earned their fortune on their own.
“That is part of it.” You said and instead of explaining you handed the phone over to Ravi and waited for him to take it all in.
“So you’re telling me the only way out of this mess is for us to let this get back to our fathers or for me to stand by while my best friend gets engaged to you?” he growled.
“We were going to tell them next month anyway Wonsik. I still mean for that to happen. Or did you forget I was moving in?” You asked raising your hand like you would grab his then moving like you were fixing your hair when Ravi gave a slight shake of his head as if to say not here.
“Whatever it is that we are doing we need to decide. I wasn’t the only one who got that article. The guys are asking questions and there are eyes everywhere here. She should ride with me until we can get out of sight.” Leo said.
“Mwo?” You asked.
“He’s right. until now I never got out of my car so my tag could have been put on someone else’s car or a friend could have come in my place. How is going to look if not even five minutes after the article comes out I came down here and whisked you away. You guys go. I am going to stay and order food act like it was just a coincidence that we met here. I will see you later Jagi, I promise. Leo you still got the key to my apartment?” Ravi pinched the bridge of his nose like all of this was giving him a giant headache.
“Ne.” Leo affirmed grabbing onto your hand as you stood up from your seat.
“Joahyo. Go there. Call the others and we are going to take care of this before tonight. Y/n call your brother too. He needs to know what we decide so that he doesn’t get blindsided at the party. Does anyone else know that we were dating?” Wonsik looked positively sick as all of the emotions played through his mind and you could barely stop yourself from going to him. It was only the firm pressure on your fingers as Leo squeezed your hand that reminded you that everyone was watching your next step. You let the emotions bury themselves and put on that cold professional act that you were so good at hoping that he knew how much you wished it was him by your side.
“My stepmother, but she ignored me. which is why these dates kept being scheduled.” You told him.
“She is not allowed in my apartment.” He said and you couldn’t help but laugh as he smiled, but that was Ravi, always trying to make bad situations better. The two boys bowed like none of the earlier discussion had even happened. The next time they spoke it was loud enough for everyone within a reasonable earshot to hear.
“Wonsik it was good seeing you here. Y/n has a flight to catch but I guess I’ll see you at vixx in the morning?” Leo said formally.
“I’ll be there. Y/n it was a pleasure seeing you here. I am glad things are going well for the two of you. Hope your trip goes well.”
“Gamsahabnida Wonsik-sshi. Leo we should get going or we are going to miss the movie.” You said and bowed to him yourself before leaving with Leo. There were cameras waiting for you this time and you couldn’t get out of it. Leo wrapped an arm around your shoulders and you smiled adoringly up at him.
“Y/n can you give us a statement about the recent rumors.”
“Which ones? The rumors that Leo and I are seeing each other just got confirmed. The rumors about me and Ravi? We are close due to the relationships I have with mutual friends, but at the end of the day we are still our fathers’ children. The rumors about plastic surgery in Tokyo. Myth. I was in Tokyo to visit with my step brother and to appear in a music video which should debut in two weeks. If you will all excuse me my date and I are a little busy.” You said turning that bright smile to Leo. Instead of walking to a car he stopped in front of a bike.
“This is yours?”
“I wasn’t expecting to have a passenger. Here.” Leo said handing you a spare helmet.
“Gomawo.” You said and put the helmet on pressing the button that activated the speakers so that you could talk with him.
“Have you ever ridden before?” Leo’s voice came through the headset.
“Ne. nae oppa neun jajeongeoleul gajigoissda.” You explained.
“Hold on tight and lean when I do.” He instructed as he helped you onto the motorcycle and the two of you took off. Most of the first part of the ride was silent until you realized.
“Leo-sshi Where are you going? Ravi’s place is in the other direction.” You said tapping him on the waist to get his attention.
“I know and we’ll get there. I just wanted to talk to you first. Before we go back and before Ravi has a say in this. I want to talk to you.” He pulled to a stop at a park and hopped off the bike taking his helmet off and you pulled yours free letting your hair spill out onto your shoulders.
“Leo geunyang dol-a gaja.” you said refusing to get too far away from the bike.
“Do you really not have to think about this at all y/n-ah? Our family’s want this to happen and think that we are a good match. Aren’t you at least curious as to why the see things like this? Haven’t you at least enjoyed it a little bit?” He demanded desperate to get you to change your mind. the two of you had been close when you were little, you could be that way again. He wanted things to be that way again. He wanted you again.
“Leo-yah. I don’t want to talk about this with you. Not here. Budi?” You repeated.
“Wae. Are you afraid you will rethink everything? Maybe that wouldn’t be so bad.” He scoffed at you.
“Ani. I am afraid to let other people see us fighting this soon after the article. It will be more trouble for you than it will me. Gaja. we can talk at Ravi’s place and I can change out of this stupid pantsuit.” you said trying to lighten the mood.
“You already have clothes there? You were actually serious about moving in with him, weren’t you?” The look of betrayal on his face confused you and you frowned.
“Ne. I thought we told you all this at Vixx the other morning. What has gotten into you?” You demanded.
“So you really feel nothing between the two of us? I thought maybe when you didn’t tell him about the dates it was because you… Jenjang!” He slammed his fist into the side of a tree repeatedly and you ran over to stop him.
“Leo! Hajima! you’re going to hurt yourself. Stop it! Stop.” You tried grabbing his arm at first but when that didn’t work you moved between him and the tree just barely stopping before he hit you he flat palmed and rested his arm in the spot over you. His head slumped in defeat.
“Mianhae. Taekwoon-ah please stop. Mianhae. I didn’t know. Mianhae.” You said and hugged him to you but he shoved out of your embrace like you’d slapped him instead.
“Hajima! Don’t act like it matters now. Not after you…. kkeojyeo. I can’t deal with this right now. I will see you at Ravi’s.” He said then went back to his bike taking off in a rush of screeching tires. You grabbed out your phone and dialed the familiar number.
“Hey can you come get me? Leo just left me at the park.” You said wiping furiously at tears that you hadn’t even expected to fall. You cared about Leo and hadn’t wanted to see him hurt but it was Ravi. He had to understand that it was always going to be Ravi if it came down to this.
“Alright I will be there soon. Gwaenchan-a Y/n-sshi?”
“Ani. sanghwang-i johji anh-ayo.” you said.
Jina pulled up fifteen minutes later and came rushing over to you. Hugging you close and smoothing out your makeup and hair from where you had been crying.
“Jinjja? I can’t believe Leo would just leave you like that. Wait until Ravi gets his hands on him. If Ravi doesn’t beat him senseless I will.” Your friend said balling up a fist dramatically and making you laugh weakly.
“Ani! I don’t want them to fight. Can you just take me over to Ravi’s place with you?” You insisted.
“Geulae. We will do that. Uljiman. It isn’t worth your tears.” She said wiping at your eyes again.
“Ne.” You replied.
When you got there Ravi was just pulling up to the apartment as well and the others were already waiting on you.
“Jagi-ah. What are you doing with Jina? I thought you and Leo came back here. after the cafe.” He looked confused but before you could say anything Leo was pulling up on his bike.
“About that…” You started again but jina crossed over to Taekwoon and slapped him hard across the face. The others came rushing out when they saw what happened confused and worried because it wasn’t like her to be harsh.
“Yah! Taekwoon-sshi how could you just leave her like that? Huh?! neo michyeoss-eo?” Ravi turned to face his friend with a look of pure shock but your stepbrother got his hands on him first shoving him back into a wall.
“You left my sister? What the hell is wrong with you man? You best explain real quick and hope I like the answer.” Your brother drew back his fist ready to hit Leo and he didn’t do a thing to stop it or defend himself. while the others were demanding explanations and Ravi was trying to stop your brother from hitting his best friend even though he wanted to do the exact same thing.
“Oppa that’s enough Hajima! Hajima! All of you just stop! It was my fault he left. I crossed a line. leave him alone! We should go inside. you all deserve an explanation. Leo I will bandage your hand up when we get inside. Ravi-yah do you still have that first aid kit in the kitchen? Ka. we will finish this inside.” You ordered when you realized that people were starting to nose into your business and pull out their phones.
“What’s wrong with your hand?” Hakyeon asked going from angry to concerned but Leo didn’t answer and you just brushed past them all to the door and held your hand out for Ravi’s key.
“So Abeoji and Eomma are really announcing both engagements tonight?” Youngjin asked. He and his girlfriend had already decided to get engaged shortly before he came home and your parents had already finalized the arrangements for that engagement as well as yours apparently.
“Ne. Your mother ignored me when I tried to tell her. I thought I would have time to talk to Appa about it this weekend when we had our family dinner.”
“but then he told you about the party at lunch today.” Ravi said summing it all up.
“Ne.” You nodded your head at ravi.
“Where does that leave the two of you?” Ken spoke up gesturing to you and ravi only to be punched in the arm by Hyuk who just gave him an exasperated look.
“I should probably step back.” Ravi said and everyone looked at him like he’d grown a second head. You dropped his hand like it had burned you.
“Tell me you’re joking. What about my promise to you? Does that not matter anymore?” you said tasting the disgust on your tongue. You stood up and stormed off to his room. He followed you and shut the door before wrapping you in a hug which you shoved violently out of.
“Jagi-yah if we had more time. I swear I would let you keep your promise but your appa is more important than I am. You’re always telling me about how you want to make things right. Don’t you still want that?”
“Not if it costs me you. I don’t want any of it if I am going to lose you. My stepbrother can keep the company for all I care. Its not worth it.” You said.
“I can’t let you give up everything jagi-yah. Leo would take care of you. Maybe this is a good thing. They never would have approved.” He said it was his way of trying to make you smile but it had the opposite effect.
“I don’t care. I don’t love Leo and if you’re saying this to me right now how can I believe you ever loved me. Is that all this was to you? Some beautiful lie for you to pass the time?” You didn’t wait for his answer and shoved past the others listening at the door. Jina, Hakyeon and Youngjin chased after you and pulling you to a stop.
“Where are you going? Are you really just going to leave them both like this?” Hakyeon asked.
“Yes. Wait no. I don’t know N, but I am going to Tokyo tonight. I need to think and Leo was right I can’t do that here. Youngjin mianhaeyo. I won’t be there for your engagement. I can’t be.” You left them standing on the sidewalk and headed back in the direction of your apartment. Your phone rang a couple of times as you were walking. the first time it was your stepmother. The Next three it was Ravi. You just ignored it and kept walking. There wasn’t anything either of them had to say that you wanted to hear at this point. You didn’t care when people bumped your shoulders and ignored when they asked if you were okay just letting the events of the past few months play in your mind.
Moment one: You met.
Moment two: You fell in love…
“Y/n! Wait!” Ravi’s voice hit your ears as you were stepping out of a crosswalk and onto the sidewalk. You turned your head just in time to hear the screeching tires and the sick wet thud that came when metal collided with flesh.
“Ravi…”
“Someone call an ambulance! My brakes locked up and I couldn’t stop I- it was an accident. Call an ambulance for god’s sake!” a stranger’s voice hit your ears.
“No. no please no no no no. bikyeo!” You said shoving past the crowd that started to form.
“Y/n?”
“I’m here Wonsik.” You ran over and grabbed his hand in yours as relief flooded through you only to be replaced by absolute horror.
“Wait no. No please don’t do this to me. I love you. Don’t do this to me. Don’t leave me. Jagi, please. Andwae. you can’t. No. No.” You sobbed as you started to see him disappearing. It was just like your father had said and somehow worse because it was too real. Too fast.
“Uljima starlight. I’m not going to leave you.Not now or ever. Salanghae y/n.” He said.
Moment three:… He was gone.
