stuck between two chaotic, fiery twin siblings whose moods fluctuate from the most miscellaneous things, ashley has always been observant to others' moods and needs. but it doesn't take an observant eye to notice something weighing on her girlfriend's shoulders. "you're not a bother. you never are." she says, taking kaori's hands into her own and looking at the woman with a gentle gaze. "you don't have to hide anything from me." but what if she is the culprit behind kaori's mood? what if she is the reason why the woman's gaze is fraught with blues? swallowing the lump in her throat, ashley gives kaori's hands a reassuring squeeze. "whatever it is, you can talk to me." 

kaori's lips part for a moment but no words escape. the moment she feels her warmth, she could feel herself wanting to melt into her but instead her wavering feelings take place. "its just ... " she paused trying to articulate her words without messing up. she hummed tilting her head, her hand making her way to gently meet hers and return a slight squeeze back. "its silly to say but i just feel a little forgotten when you're gone." she knew how important tour was for her career and band but it was tough seeing all their updates on social media while she waits around for her. "this time was just ... really tough."

     having been busy dressing himself to the cushion hits his shoulder, drawing out a gasp of shock as he gazed back at madeline before approaching the bed ; capturing her in a playful headlock —- gently.  " i mean, i don't mind that you got loud. "  voice is matching her whisper, letting go of her in order to press a kiss to her temple.

"of course you don't mind." she quietly giggled as she momentarily sits up to place on her tiny slip dress and laid back down. " i know love hearing me." she teased only saying the one word in a normal tone. madeline attempts to keep a straight face before breaking into a small smile. "ah! help me." she reacted to the hold with another whisper before laughing. a simple kiss breaks her into a grin before she leans closer give him a kiss against his cheek. "minhyun, maybe next time we'll get lucky and it'll be just us or maybe we'll just need some music — i'm only for your eyes and ears."

       zipping  sweatshirt  closed  as  eyes  fell  over  on  the  lying  silhouette  on  his  bed,  a  slight  smirk  appearing  onto  features.   "  are  you  afraid  they  might've  heard  you  ?  " 

"me?" she felt the need to whispers as she points to herself. a scoff escaped her lips, skin quickly dusting darker in colour at the thought. she reached for the cushion and threw it at minhyun's direction. "maybe? but that's my fault?"

“you could have talked to me. that's what couples are supposed to do." ashley sighs, her gaze filled with a desperate pleading. "so, why won't you just talk to me? please?” if something is troubling them, she would want to know, so that together they can find a way to work through it.

a small shrug is kaori's instant response to her question. eyes widen for a moment before slowly shifting away. "its fine." she muttered bleakly before sighing in frustration. kaori was not the best at expression her feelings and with the distance it made things even harder. "ashley - its fine ... i just didn't want to be a bother."

cut!  ara  doesn’t  know  how  long  the  kiss  has  been,  it  is  only  when  the  director  calls  out  again  with  great  impatience  that  it  finally  comes  to  an  end.  she  only  has  her  years  of  acting  training  to  thank,  so  she  doesn’t  dissolve  into  a  scarlet  puddle  under  the  teasing  of  almost  everyone  involved  on  set.  it  isn’t  the  first  time  she  has  to  kiss  someone  on  screen,  but  it  is  the  first  time  it’s  felt  like  this…  like  her  head  is  spinning  and  there  is  no  one  else  she  sees  but  them.  after  thanking  the  crew  for  their  work  for  the  day,  her  gaze  finally  returns  to  the  co-star  next  to  her.  “i  —  uh  —  ”  there  is  no  way  to  explain  it  when  she  cannot  explain  it  herself,  something  must  have  gone  into  her  head  and  made  these  goddamned  butterflies  go  insane.  what’s  worse?  she  now  remembers  their  earlier  promise  to  meet  up  later  to  go  over  the  new  script.  “i’ll  see  you  after  dinner,  then?”  she  flashes  a  smile  that  is  convincing  enough  to  hide  the  effect  the  kiss  still  has  on  her.  “it’s  okay  if  you  want  to  leave  it  for  another  time.  it’s  been  a  long  day.”

it’s been a while since hyunbin last acted. he shifted to modelling after his manager convinced him that he would be set but his mind lingered back to his first love. his was nervous at the start of filming after a long hiatus but luckily his co-star ara was easy to work with. it was no denying that their chemistry was made for the screen. the kiss they shared was like no other, his heart pounded hard against his chest the entire time. when they parted lips he had no idea everyone was waiting on them to walk off set after getting the shot they desired. his cheeks remained to feel flushed and warm. he mirrored her and thanked everyone. “right …” he brushed his digits through his hair. "i'll text you... or maybe we can just order in room service? unless you have plans."
