A split second later, Kuroki replied back

The director told us and it's all over the social media. Plus, get to the studio now so you can introduce us to your fiancé and start our latest song

P.s the song we're making can be dedicated to your fiancé, if you want

Kuroki sends Taekwoon pics of the news about him and Izumi getting engaged, Taekwoon opened the news channel on his phone.

"Breaking news! A new power celebrity couple has just been formed here in Japan! Our very own Saiko Nathan and international multi-award winning actress Yamashita Hanami have just confirmed their engagement tonight! One of our team members are at the studio waiting for famous couple to come out" the news reporter announced.

Taekwoon closes his phone and straightens himself up. Then Izumi looks at Taekwoon and holds his right hand, "Why don't we go outside and tell everyone?" she suggested. Taekwoon smiles and gives Izumi a quick kiss, "Alright...lets go meet the public" he agreed.

When they exited the studio, they already saw a press conference ready for both of them. Taekwoon and Izumi looked to the side and saw their managers confirming with one another, they both made their way to their seats and sat down.

A sudden burst of excitement and curiosity was in the press conference, Taekwoon picked the reporter that he saw in the news. "Saiko-san! How long have you known Yamashita-san and do you plan on having a life with Yamashita-san?" the reporter asks.

Taekwoon placed his left hand on top of Izumi's hand and they both smile at each other's. "Of course I plan on having a life with Hanami, and I've known her since we were in elementary school" he answered.

Then another reporter raised his hand and looked at Izumi, "Yamashita-san! What was your reaction to Saiko-san's proposal? Did you have any second thought?"

Izumi laughed and smiled, "I never had any doubts about Nathan's proposal. I was so happy that he proposed to me, I've liked Nathan since we were first introduce when we were children" she explained.

Suddenly all the reporters wanted to ask more question about Taekwoon and Izumi's long relationship, but Tarkwoon bowed and apologised to the reporters and left the conference room.

"We should start heading to the recording studio, the band is 'dying' to meet you" Taekwoon reminded. Izumi and Taekwoon were on their way to the recording studio, but then Izumi looked out the window and saw many angry fans with banner saying 'Mikoto and Nathan 4 ever!' waiting for them at the studio.

Taekwoon saw Izumi distressed and kisses her lips. "Are you alright, my princess?" he asks. Izumi looks outside her window again and sighs, "These fans don't support us, they want you and Mikoto to be together" she answered.

Taekwoon smiles and holds Izumi's hand, he kisses it and shows Izumi her ring. "Don't listen to what they say, they're opinion doesn't change the fact that I love you and that we're getting married" he comforted, "Please be happy with me, Mrs Saiko"

Izumi giggled and kissed Taekwoon, he kissed her back with passion. They broke off their kiss and Izumi smiled. "We would have to wait a couple more months until we can get married, we still need to finish school after all" she reminded.

Taekwoon played with Izumi's wig and smiled, "Well of course, my love! We want to complete our education first" he agreed.
