What did Ha-eun get me into!?

"Excuse me?" I looked at him trying to act like I had gotten offended by his words

"You heard me" He calmly said "I don't know who you're, But you're not Choi Ha-eun." He is just accusing me of impersonating Ha-eun. This guy looks scary I don't know whether I should just say the truth or deny it

"You're.....

right. I'm not. I can't believe I thought I could pull this off. But how did you figure it out?"

"Your fingerprints don't match hers." That makes sense

"So.... who are you?" He questioned

"Lee Y/n..."

"Oh, So you're Miss Ha's roommate." How the fuck did he know about this!?

"I know you're wondering how I knew, but honestly that doesn't matter. More importantly, what on earth are you wearing?" His eyes slowly devoured my body.

"Uhh, clothes duh..." Like what does he even mean, I have a better taste than his plain black tuxedo at least. He rolled his eyes as he looked at me again

"How can you even see anything from those big black glasses?"

"Cuz, I have really good eyesight."

"Ridiculous" He whispered under his breath "I still heard that!" I glared at him

"I don't know anything, Just go across the hall and change your clothes, you'll find some perfunctory outfits there."

"I don't-"

"Don't you dare utter another word, Ms. Lee" I humped and walked away from there. That guy gets on my nerves.

Nevertheless, I entered the hall and I was utterly shocked at the sight... All those outfits that were hung around the room were so pretty! I explored the outfits and read their tags.

1. White Elegance

Sleeveless white toes with very short white pants.

~ Feel luxurious in this elegant combination of white and gold.

2. Green Denim

Sage green and white pants.

~Sometimes you want a simpler look

3. Vivd Velvet

Dark black green shiny mini dress.

~Make others green with envy in this eye-catching velvet dress.

4. Show your stripes

Black revealing crop top with trousers.

~Striped trousers are a statement piece for any occasion.

5. Make them Blush

Gentle light pink long dress with a golden belt.

~This gentle blush color will make you look feminine and refined

6. Sleek Black

Black revealing coat, and black tight trousers.

~Look professional and put together in this black ensemble.

Someway, White Elegance attracted me. So I took the dress & I just ran away to the dressing room.

"All set and done" I exclaimed as I admired myself in the mirror. The short dress hugging my curves, I smirked, this was the perfect dress to make anyone drool over me.

I went out happily but my mood went down when I saw Mr. Jeon waiting for me.

"Hnm Riveting."

"What's so 'Riveting' about it?" I crossed my hands over my chest

"Well... You almost look human" THE AUDACITY OF THIS GUY TO SAY THAT! LIKE WHAT DOES HE THINK ABOUT HIMSELF!?

"Anyway, back to business. Why are you taking your roommate, Ms. Lee? Is this show suddenly not to her liking? After all, she did pay 1,30,01,50,000 won to get it. That's a very high price to pay for indecisiveness." My eyes widened as I couldn't believe

1,30,01,50,000 WON!!!?

But wait what about the money

"So... That prize of 26,00,26,00,000 won at the end of the show...?"

"Is collected from the contestant's entry frees"The actual fuck? That's so much!

"For our effluent contestants, that kind of money is barely a drop in the bucket."

I can't imagine being so rich that I consider billions of won 'drop in the bucket'!

"People don't sign up for this show just because of the prize anyway. Some do it for fame, others for love. And what's your reason, Ms. Lee?"

"I actually... never signed up. My roommate tricked me into taking her place." I sighed

"Does that matter? You could have turned around and walked away at any point, but you didn't." He said

"Well, I wonder, If you did end up taking part in this, what do you choose

Fame

Money

Love

"Fame... When you're famous, everyone loves you... And what better way to achieve fame than winning this show? "

"Interesting... Too bad you're not going to participate. "

NO WAY, HE CAN'T TAKE MY OPPORTUNITY

"You can't do Mr. Jeon! You just tried to sell the show to me. Why would you kick me out the minute I bite in!? "

"Boredom I guess" He yawned

"I don't have much to do until the show starts. Nevertheless, you don't belong here, so it's pointless for you to stay, and convey my message to Ms. Choi, that I'll transfer the funds back to her account. And I don't need any negative press this close to the start. You may leave now" He walked back to his chair.

"But aren't you going to have an odd number of contestants if I leave?" I tried to find an excuse to stay here. His expression changed, I was right, leaving would pose a problem.

"I guess I'll have to pluck someone from my contact list" I turned pale as I heard his words

"Mr. Jeon...."

"Call me Jungkook" He said. I have to convince him to let me stay here in the show.

"Jungkook, You're making a huge mistake. HUGE. I don't think you're aware of what kind of talent you have at your doorstep. You might turn me away now...But a few years down the road, when everyone knows my name. You're going to regret making this choice. So, you should reconsider your decision." I flipped my hair and made sure not to lose my confidence. Gotta make this guy realize my worth

"Y/n... May I call you Y/n? " I nodded

"Nobody knows you, and this show is based on points. The more famous you are, the more points you get, which then makes you an attractive choice. And to be honest, I've never even heard of you. Are you a singer, actor, or Instagram influencer?"

"I'm a fashion designer!" I exclaimed

"And who's worn your creations?" I looked down as I mumbled

"A kid who wore a dress I designed in a toothpaste ad?" He sighed as his cold eyes fell on my tiny figure

"This can't work. Unless..."

"Unless...?"

You could be my little twist.

Yes! That's right.

A small-town girl, trying to make it in the big city..."

"I'm from Daejeon..." He flicked my head and spoke

"Shhh... Lemme think If we're doing this, you're going to do everything I say...If I tell you to do a pole dance, then you gotta do it. Got it!"

This turns down my self-respect! No way!

"Listen to me Mr. Jeon Jungkook, I'm not some puppet on a string! And I'm not going to dance to your tune just because you're used to wondering people around." His eyes roamed around my figure as I stood there getting annoyed by his orders

"You're a peculiar woman. Here's what you're going to do. A few people have already arrived. So go outside, take a look around... And decide who's going to be your Match..."

"But isn't the host usually the one who pairs people up?"

"Enough with questions. Go before I change my mind, and make sure to tell me your choice before 7 pm.

I nodded and looked at the time,

"THAT'S IN 40 MINUTES!-"

"Fred will help you" With a heavy sigh I walked out. I went down to find no one else, and that's when Fred approached

"How may I help you, Miss Lee?" He already knows I'm not Ha-eun

"Where's everybody? I looked around

"Your perspective Matches are touring the gardens. The entrance door is on your left." We bowed down to each other as I walked away.

Pushing down the large door, the beauty of nature astonished me,

"This place is enormous" I looked around only to find the servants, I found Jen near the fountain, wait she shouldn't see me! I searched for the sunglasses and I realized I left them in the dressing room, She shouldn't recognize me! I'm not ready for this conversation! I ran away from there.

I dove for the ground behind the wall...and managed to knock myself unconscious.

All I saw were fuzzy lights, dancing in the darkness, and the back of my head was throbbing with pain. There was an unfamiliar voice coming from a distance, but I could neither make out the words nor reply.

The voice slowly got closer

Until I felt someone's fingers gently touching my forehead.

"Can you hear me!?" The voice asked, seeping with concern. I gave him a blind nod, but I winced.

"We should get her inside," another voice remarked, This one was deeper, huskier, but also less fretting. I wanted to open my eyes and try to raise myself, convenience them that I was fine...

But just as I uttered the first syllable, I was lifted off the ground! I lifted my eyelids to find a man carrying me like a bag of feathers. He didn't notice me looking so I quickly shut them. In just a short while, we found ourselves back in the lobby, and he gently laid me onto the velvet seat. I opened my eyes aging, blinking a few times.

I saw 2 men staring at me; one with worry, one with amusement.

"How do you feel? I think you hit your head pretty hard. We should call out a doctor to check you out. " One of them said

"I'm fine, I don't need to be checked out.

"Ha! I think otherwise. You should get checked out at least a dozen times a day." The other said. Is he flirting with me? The voice, this must be the guy who carried me! I flirted back

"Are you volunteering for the position? Cuz I wouldn't mind at all." I smirked,

"You wouldn't, huh?" He smirked as he checked me out.

"Well, we can arrange something later in my bedroom-"

"Jimin!" He was interrupted by the other guy, as the Jimin guy laughed

"We're both adults who know what we want. And that glint in her eyes tells me that I wouldn't regret it."

"Bold assumptions, I see" I giggled

"That's just how I am. By the way, Your name Miss?

"Y/n, Lee Y/n..."

"I'm sorry I haven't heard of your name. We haven't met before right?" He questioned

"Wouldn't you remember if we had?" I replied, he smirked

"I doubt, I'd forget a woman like you."

"And what's your name?" I asked

"You don't know who I am? How is that possible" His friend started laughing as I got nervous and thought of somehow finding an excuse.

"I-"

"Ignore him," The other guy said "He thinks that everyone knows his name just because he sang at a few concerts.

"Oh come on! I won the Grammy Award, Last year!" He fought back

That's when Fred came into my view.

"Mr. Park, may I have a moment of your time?" He nodded as he walked away, winking at me

"Anyway, I'm Kim Taehyung, It's nice to meet you."

"Likewise!" I greeted, I felt like I had seen him somewhere recently... but can't remember where

"Kim Taehyung, huh? That name rings a bell..."

"Really? You've heard of me, but not Jimin? You're going to send the poor guy into a tizzy.

"I mean it! Have we met before?" The thought of him filled my mind.

"I mean if you have seen my Drama. My only Drama Hwarang, where I played the character of Han-Sung"

RIGHT NOW I REMEMBER!

"Yes! Now I remember! You were that little goofy creature who sacrificed your life for someone you admired... And then Moon-Myung tried to save you but the poison had already destroyed your body!"

"Yeah, Something like that" He laughed

"Did you like the movie?"

"'Yup It was good. You have some serious acting skills. " I appreciated his skills

"oh, I'm still learning, I'm a Model."

"AHEM!" A sudden cough startled me, I looked behind to find a sulky Jimin.

"Hate to burst your bubble guys, but the show starts in an hour. We should probably get ready."

Shoot! I need to meet up with Jungkook and give him a name!

"I hate to be late," Taehyung mumbled

"YOU'RE INTERESTING!" Jimin yelled "Who knows we might become a match" he winked.

"Hold your horses, boy. Gotta go Y/n" Taehyung waved goodbye dragging Jimin who wanted to talk to you. You waved back as you giggled and walked away.

"I didn't want to join this show on your request but, I think this show just got more entertaining now." Jimin looked at his friend whose eyes never left your figure

10 minutes to 7

I should make a choice...

Why is this so hard?!

I looked at my phone to find Ha-eun was texting me.

------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------

Ha-eun: Talk to you in 2 weeks! Good luck!

Me: 2 weeks?

Ha-eun: You're not allowed to use your
phone during the show...

Me: Why didn't you tell me this
before I agreed to participate?!

Ha-eun: Such a phone addict. You're gonna be
having so much fun, you won't even notice.

Ha-eun: By the way, who's this year's host?
Is it Park Jae-beom!?
Please tell me I get to see his abs on my 88-inch TV >0<

Me: Nah, It's Jeon Jungkook, I think?

Ha-eun: .......

Me: .......

Ha-eun: Are you saying that the currently HOTTEST
bachelor in the world is hosting this show!?
Why isn't he participating?

Me: What's the big deal with him?

Ha-eun: Come on, haven't you heard about his
performances!? Girls wanna date him so badly, and
guys are turning gay for him-

Me: If I were, I'd date Song Joong-Ki!

Ha-eun: Still, blue blood! His family is rich beyond measure...

Ha-eun: And on top of it all, he's one of the
Youngest successful film producers of all time!
He produced his first blockbuster when he was 23!

Me: Well, I can't date him, can I?

Ha-eun: Hmmm I have a feeling,
seducing the host would be an instant win :D

Me: I- Is that even allowed?

Ha-eun: Who knows?
Now, spill have you seen anyone attractive?
Besides Jungkook

Me: I have. But can't have multiple matches right?

Ha-eun: So what!? You're still allowed to
flirt with everyone! It's basically the point of the show!

Me: But I know nothing about them!
How am I supposed to seduce anyone?

Ha-eun: Gurl, come on! You know I'm a walking
encyclopedia when it comes to celebrities. I can tell you all 
you need to know to choose the perfect match for yourself.
Just ask!

------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------

Ha-eun does have a good point...

She has a lot of inside info, and I won't be able to google them later. Besides, I'm curious to find out about them.

Looking at my key-pad I sighed

------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------

Me: It's a tempting offer...But I have to say no.
It would give me an unfair advantage
over other contestants.

Ha-eun: Wow. Always fair and proper.
Well, I won't argue with that. Now go
and kick everyone's asses and make
me proud!

Me: Will do!

------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------

"Miss?" My name was called out, I looked behind to find Fred

"Mr. Jeon is wanting to meet you." I nodded and followed him and entered the room to find Jungkook standing in front of me.

"The clock just struck 7. Have you made your decision yet?"

"Who is going to be your Match, Ms. Y/n?"
