Jihoon: I doesn't really  upset me. 

SFX: smirk 

Jihoon: cuz it's work. It's "business". 

They start walking out of the practice room and down a hall

SFX: ah...

Eden (internally): Business...

Jihoon: So...

Eden (internally): right...cuz it's work.

Jihoon: don't worry so much. 

SFX: shock

SFX: excited screaming 

Fan: heok, Eden-ah! Look over here!!

Fan 2: Gong Jihoon!!

Eden (internally): All those people.... are here to see us? ....But the debut teaser only just came out?...it's all...because of that...

SFX: screaming

Fan: Oh it looks nice....I came today to see them and decide if I want to join the fandoms since time and money goes into being a fan...

Anti:  Looks like he's been taking good care of himself? I guess he didn't go anywhere. 

Anti 2: Ah, I was gonna say the same. I'm f**ing pissed. 

Anti: Is that him? He's handsome. If he was in a different entertainment company he could even be the center of a group.

Anti 2: right. They don't even look that close? What the heck was that teaser? They're just trying to clean up Gong Jihoon's reputation aren't they? 

(tn: this entire sentence was slang...I did my best...)

Anti: ah~ you're right. Then what about Kang Eden? Poor kid I kinda pity him. 

Anti 2: they say he was a trainee for 5 years

SFX: Eden grits his teeth/clenches his jaw

SFX: Eden slips his hand into Jihoon's

SFX: heartbeat sounds

SFX: Jihoon grips Eden's hand more firmly

SFX: Fangirl screaming

Jihoon (internally): ....not bad. 

Fan: Jihoon Oppa! How have you been?!

(tn: we all know what oppa means right? haha a girl can call an older male that she is close to/or wants to be close to oppa)

Fan 2: Den-ah, look over here! 

(tn: this fan is using informal language and shortened Eden's name to Den so it is likely an older fan) 

Fan 3: Insane! They're so f***ing handsome!!

Fan 4: Guys!! What about a debut date? Has it been decided yet?!

Fan 5: Hey, stop pushing...Do you not understand Korean?

Fan 6: wah, Gong Jihoon he deserves the nicknames.

Fan 7: oh my god, Den-ie is so cute!

Fan 8: baby! Please look here and greet us! 

Fan 9: Gong Jihoon is insane...In the 8 years that I've been looking at him, he is the most handsome today.

Jihoon and Eden get in their van and it drives away

Eden (internally): oh...what do I do? I...I need to let go of his hand. 

Eden: Um...Sunbae.... please...let go of my hand. 

SFX: Jihoon smirks

Jihoon: Aren't you a bit too cold-hearted? 

Eden: huh?

Jihoon: Who grabbed my hand first? Now that you don't need it anymore you'll throw it away?

Eden: Ah, no it's not like that....! I'm sorry. I grabbed it without permission...

Jihoon: It's a joke. Calm down. 

SCENE SHIFTS TO EDEN'S HOME. HE IS LAYING FACE DOWN ON HIS BED

Eden (internally): I'm..gonna die...! So...going forward we'll have to keep doing those things..in front of our fans-

they ended up holding hands all the way back to his dorm.

Eden (internally): right...like Sunbae said it's just work. 

Jihoon: ....Den-ah. Eden. Kang Eden. 

Eden: uuum.. who...

a wild shirtless Jihoon appears lolol

Jihoon: it's me.

Eden: Sunbae...? Sunbae...why are you in my dorm...?

Jihoon: Don't pretend you don't know. You called for me. 

Eden: Ah right...in the car. but...why aren't you-

SFX: Jihoon's hand cups Eden's cheek

Eden:...wearing anything?

Jihoon: I wonder why... Do you really not know? because you want it. 

Jihoon kisses Eden
