Chapter 10 : Getting familiar.

Third person point of view

" But besides these, we need to be prepared for more questions ". Haruto said giving Junkyu his phone back. " I know right ". Junkyu said putting his phone away. Haruto nodded. " But... how do we do that ? Write a script or something ? " Junkyu said and both of them chuckled. Haruto thought for a second.

" Not that but let's try this. Think of the kind of questions you generally get asked you know as a celebrity during interviews and all. We will find answers for them and put them in an order. In that way we can put together a story ". " Wow. That is a really smart solution. You are indeed smart ". Junkyu said amazed.

" I know that ". Haruto said with a smile. Junkyu rolled his eyes. He opened notes in his phone and thought of questions. " The most common one of how we met is already solved. Then next maybe who approached who first ? " Junkyu said. " I spoke to you first or you to me. Which do you think makes more sense ? "

Haruto asked looking at Junkyu. Junkyu pouted falling in thought. He then pointed at himself. " Would it be me ? I think it would be more believable ". Haruto nodded. " Let's fix that then ". Junkyu nodded and typed it down on his phone. He then asked another question. " Next would be how did the first meeting go and our first impressions ".

Haruto nodded. " Let's say we didn't talk much and felt a little awkward since it was the first time ? " " That sounds fine ". Junkyu said nodding to himself. Haruto spoke up again. " About first impression, what did you think when you saw me ? " " Arrogant ". Junkyu answered without thinking twice and froze.

He clicked his tongue and looked up sheepishly. Haruto was amused and had a small smile on his face as he spoke. " I don't think that answer would be impressive or nice to hear ". Junkyu smiled feeling a little guilty. " Then maybe a little cold ? " He said a little cautiously. Haruto nodded. " That should be alright ".

Junkyu turned to Haruto and asked back. " What about me then ? What was your first impression ? " " Handsome ". Haruto answered in the blink of an eye. Junkyu just sat there and kept blinking. He was shocked by the response he got. " How can you say that ? Then what would that make me ? "

Junkyu asked not able to believe he became the bad guy just like that. Haruto sat back folding his hands. " Well... I cannot say totally drunk and couldn't even stand properly right ? It is not that pleasant ". Haruto answered and Junkyu had no response to it. He huffed and noted it down. " And not all first impressions need to be the best right ? " Haruto said turning to Junkyu.

Junkyu nodded. " Right. Then..... if we are done with that. The next one would be, when did we meet again ? " Junkyu said turning to Haruto. " How about me asking you for dinner ? " Haruto asked and Junkyu nodded. " That should be fine ". " What else ? " Haruto asked looking at Junkyu. " Is there anything more ? " Junkyu scratched his head.

He looked around trying to remember things. " Ah. We should know some basic things about each other right ? " " Like ? " Haruto raised an eyebrow. " Favorite color ? " Junkyu asked immediately. " Black ". Junkyu's eyes went wide. " Really ? Mine too ". Haruto smiled. " Favorite food ? " Junkyu asked again.

" I don't really have anything ". " Oh. I have a lot of things that I like but recently I am into ramen ". Haruto nodded. " Which season do you like ? " Junkyu asked noting them all down. " Spring and fall ". " Ohh.... Mine is winter ". They spent a while speaking about all the basic things like these. " Well... we aren't that incompatible ".

Junkyu said looking at the things he noted down. Haruto scratched his ear and nodded. Junkyu checked the time and they spoke for quite some time. Haruto's phone rang showing he got a call. They stopped talking. " Hello ". Junkyu watched as Haruto answered the phone. " Alright ". He hung up and turned to Junkyu.

" I will leave now ". Junkyu blinked. He checked the time and it was a little past lunch time too. " Already ? Um... no... I mean.... You didn't even have lunch yet ? " Junkyu stuttered. " It is fine. I will have it later ". Haruto said. " Well..... " Junkyu didn't know what to say. " I will go now ". Haruto got up. He started changing his shoes.

Junkyu stood beside him looking a little awkward. Haruto opened the door and walked out. Junkyu stood at the door way. Haruto turned back to look at Junkyu. " Make sure to memorize all of those things ". Haruto said and Junkyu nodded. " What about you ? Will you remember it all ? You didn't even note it down ". Junkyu asked back. Haruto smiled.

" It is fine. I remember it all ". Junkyu nodded. " Smart indeed ". Haruto chuckled. " Bye. See you again ". Junkyu nodded and waved. " Bye. Drive safe ". Haruto smiled and walked away. Junkyu now realized how they just spent this much time. He thought it wasn't that bad. Not like they hated each other or something. So it seemed to be fine.

He sat down on the couch and saw the flowers on the small table. He picked it up and smelled it. It was fragrant. He smiled and put it aside. He thought it was kind of old fashioned to actually give a bouquet. He chuckled when he remembered Haruto standing there with the bouquet. He checked the notes again.

He just scrolled through and put his phone aside. He wondered if Haruto would really have lunch. It sounded like he was going to finish some work. He sighed and shook his head. Not like he can do anything about it anyway. He got up from the couch and picked up the bouquet. He carefully took the flowers out.

He put a few flowers in vases around the house and the remaining in a jug of water. He sighed and turned to the couch. He was alone again. He decided to eat a little. He made some ramen and had it. He watched the television as he had his food. He had a shoot the next day, so he decided he would have less at night to avoid bloating.

The next morning Junkyu woke up and got ready on time. Jihoon came to pick him up. He drove them to the shooting site. It was for a variety show. Junkyu knew he was going to enjoy it a little. He took out his phone to scroll through social media. He remembered Haruto sent him a message right in the morning.

Devil : Be mindful of your answers.

Junkyu : Okay.

Junkyu's eyebrows shot up when he saw it in the morning. He opened the chat again and Haruto just left it on read. Junkyu put his phone away. They arrived on the set and Junkyu got out of the car. Jihoon went to park the car and then came up to him. Both of them walked in to meet the others. Haruto was not wrong. Even though it was a variety some things can't be avoided.

They might not ask direct questions, but they will speak a little about it. He understood what Haruto meant. He has gotten his makeup done and has changed his dress too. They started with the shoot. Everything went smoothly. He acted 90% in denial and 10% suspicious. They asked him for a song and he sang ' Beautiful ' by Crush.

It was one of his favorite songs and the situation will be a little ambigous and iffy too with this song. His shoot was over. He sighed when he got into the car. " That was tiring ". " You did well today ". Jihoon said looking at Junkyu. Junkyu smiled and they drove to his house. He went back and the both of them had dinner together.

Jihoon decided to leave since he was done. " Remember to dress properly tomorrow ". Junkyu nodded. " Bye ". Junkyu waved. " Drive safe ". Jihoon nodded and left the house. Junkyu then went to his room and took a shower. He wore his pajamas and fell on the bed. He fell asleep pretty easily.
