"Yes, of course." You typed on your computer. "And thank you as well, please tell Ms. Miller that we'll be happy to have her." You hung up the phone and placed it next to you on your desk.

That's the last of them.

You sighed in relief at the fact that you managed to contact all of the guests for the company reunion and that almost everyone has confirmed their assistance.

Looks like I really did end up being a party planner. You chuckled at the thought.

The days passed by quicker than you expected and it was already about a week since you've had any kind of news regarding Celest. At least with Jumin's help, the others have been able to fix their problems, the ones Nathan caused.

They got proof that Yoosung wasn't the one to start the fight, although you were surprised to see that he was the one to finish it, he's gotten pretty damn strong.

Jaehee's Bakery had closed down temporarily for unknown reasons but Jumin...Well, he paid them a generous amount of money to get it back up and running. Zen, on the other hand, was a bit more difficult, Jumin couldn't just pay his fans to stop hating him or anything like that so he opted for making few publicity events regarding the rights of Women.

You heard a knock on the door and answered with a soft, "Come in." Yoosung peeked his head inside your office and gave you a sweet smile once his eyes landed on you.

"Lunchtime already?" You said as you looked at your watch.

"Yeah, I guess times flies." He said with a shrug. "I got us Chinese food." He said as he lifted the brown paper bags in his hands.

"Perfect!" You cheered and moved a couple of things on your desk so you two could eat properly.

"Is Jumin gonna join us?" Yoosung asked as he took out the boxes with rice and other goods.

"He said he can't this time since he's still got a lot of work."

"So when's he gonna eat?"

"I think in a few hours, but he said it was fine if we went ahead." You took a deep breath when you opened the take out, letting that Chinese food smell fill the room. "Eat up!"

It was a different change of pace having Yoosung visit you every once in a while. It relaxed you a bit from such a tense workplace, you loved working there but it was still really professional and that means you've gotta work hard.

Lately, you've tried your best to hang out with the others since it helped you distract yourself from the fact that Celest was still missing and Nathan was behind all of this which also caught you off guard.

Lunch went by quicker than you expected and you were already saying goodbye to Yoosung as he walked out the door.

"Back to work..." You muttered somewhat sadly. Thankfully you didn't have much left since you were working pretty consistently and well throughout the day. You just had to confirm a few future meetings and some check-ups on the details for the reunion.

"Times up." You heard from the doorway. Jumin stood there in his tailored suit as usual with a soft smile on his face. "You should get going, I don't want you leaving too late." He added as he walked over to your desk.

"Alright, let me just finish writing up this email and I'll get ready to go." He nodded and patiently waited for you as you finished up the last of your work. Once you were done, you gather your things and Jumin accompanied you to your car for safety measures.

"See you on Monday, Y/n." You nodded your head.

"See you on Monday, Jumin." You then rolled up your window and started your car. You backed up and made your way onto the road. You had google maps set on Zen's apartment and stopped by a convenience store along the way. It was a quick trip and soon enough you were at his building, walking up the stairs.

You knocked on the door and waited patiently. After a few minutes, Zen was opening up the door.

"Hey Zenny, I got us some non-fat popcorn and brownies!" You practically sang, finally being able to somewhat relax and distract yourself.

"Great! Come on in." He stood aside and let you walk in. "By the way, Min's here." He added as he closed the door.

"Right, you mentioned she was going to be staying here at your place, right? Welp, the more the merrier!" You walked into the living room and noticed her sitting on the couch.

"Hey, Min!" You greeted with a smile.

"Hi, Y/n." She gave you a small smile along with a wave. You noticed she was somewhat uncomfortable and it was a bit concerning. You knew that the whole Celest missing thing affected her just as it did you.

"I brought food." You added to which her mood completely changed for the better. You chuckled slightly seeing her eyes shine at the thought of eating whatever goods you bought. "I'll start making the popcorn." You walked into Zen's kitchen as if you owned the place and started doing your thing.

"I'll help you serve the brownies." Zen offered kindly as he made his way over to you. You opened the microwavable popcorn and stuffed it in the microwave, punch in the time, then turned to look at Zen as he took out some plates.

"Thanks for having me over, Zen." You said softly. He turned his attention towards you with a soft smile.

"You know I love having you over, Y/n. We need to stick together through these tough times, ya know?" He took off the lid of the Tupperware and started placing the brownies on the plates.

"Yeah, I really don't know what I would do without you guys."

"For one thing you wouldn't have such beautiful skin if it weren't for my recommendations." He patted your cheek for emphasis making you laugh. You were startled when you heard the timer beep, indicating that the popcorn was done.

You carefully took it out, opened it, and poured it in the bowl. Zen took out an extra bowl and once that was done, you two exited the kitchen and placed the food on the coffee table and took a seat on the couch along with Zen.

"Dig in." You said sweetly towards Min seeing the drool visible on the corner of her mouth. Zen handed her an extra bowl and she started filling it up. "I think I'll go make more." You added with a chuckle seeing she was a big eater in comparison to her small figure. "So how did you guys meet?" You asked as you went back into the kitchen and prepared another batch.

"Well, she was stuffing her face with Pizza, I remember that well," Zen answered with a soft laugh.

"Really? Did you guys meet at a pizza place or something?" You asked as you walked back to the doorway as you waited for the popcorn to cook.

"It was when I first got here and I was taking a break after work. I was really hungry, alright?" She couldn't help but chuckle and playfully punch Zen's arm. You laughed along seeing how cute of a couple they made.

"Yeah, and I was trying to tell her one of my best pick up lines but someone took it too seriously." He looked directly at her and wiggled his eyebrows.

"Look at you, hitting it off right off the bat!" You snickered making Zen, the almighty Zen! Blush. "What pick up line did you use?" You asked out of curiosity.

"The bandage one." He let out a chuckle.

"Niiiice. You know You should try out the ones from the game, maybe that'll help you out." You gave him a wink.

"DON'T MENTION THAT HORRID GAME." He complained earning a laugh out of Min.

"You know you're starting to sound like Jumin." You heard the beeping of the microwave and made your way back into the kitchen.

"I'm nothing like him! I'm better looking, that's for sure!" He called out. You scoffed.

"Wait till I tell Jumin-AH CRAP!" You winced in pain as you held your hand. You were distracted by the conversation and just grabbed the freaking bag LIKE IT WAS NOTHING.

Zen rushed into the kitchen along with Min, he didn't even ask if you were okay, he knew what happened just by looking at you holding your hand and the popcorn bag on the floor, he quickly grabbed your wrist and took you to the sink to run cold water over it.

"Geez, you've gotta be more careful," You felt a wave of relief when the water hit your hand but felt bad for making him worry. "I can't have you getting hurt." He added, you felt bad about being so clumsy until you hear him mutter. "Seven would kill me if you got hurt, and I don't plan on getting a single scratch on my face any time soon." You showed him a small side smile.

"Thanks Promiscuous Jalapeno Topping!" His soft expression instantly turned into an annoyed one.

"I SAID DON'T MENTION THAT HORRID GAME!"

-

It was calm and quiet, he sat there at the table with a glass of wine in his hand as he thought through what the next step would be.

"What a lovely place you have here." Nathan stood up abruptly when he suddenly heard a voice, he glared at the blonde haired woman.

"Who the hell are you?" He spat. "Did Saeyoung or Y/n send you?" Rika laughed sweetly yet her eyes told a different story.

"You must be the boy!" She walked gracefully, almost glowing in contrast to the black and white decorated room.

"Wait, you're Rika?"

"Of course! I'm happy to finally meet you!" She reached over and shook his hand. "Do you have her?" She got right to the point.

"Yeah. She's in the back. I see you held up your end of the bargain." He looked up and down at the woman.

"I am a woman of my word." She gave him a wink.

To think she was capable of sending someone to run over her own friend...

"But I'm still going to need the hacker for one more thing," Nathan added.

"Oh?" She raised her eyebrows. "But our deal was that you would give me her now." She took a step closer to him.

"Looks like you're gonna have to wait a little longer, I've got other plans for her." He crossed his arms over his chest.

"Is that so?" Rika took the last steps so she would be right in front of him. She took hold of his suit and started fixing the flaps. "You know, if I were you, I would hand her over before this gets-" She yanked him forward, making his face get extremely close to hers. "-ugly." She then let him go and straightened out his outfit. "I don't really feel like getting my hands dirty at the moment." One look into her eyes and Nathan knew she wasn't fucking around. "And of course I thank you for all your help in causing all that destruction in the RFA." She added casually.

Nathan stared at her in fear, what the hell was he getting himself into? "A-All right." He slowly backed away from her and went to the room Celest was held captive in. He placed a cloth bag over her head and handcuffed her hands behind her. He made her stand up and started walking back out.

"That's a good boy! You really are so kind, no wonder you once went out with Y/n, the both of you are quite similar." Nathan glared at the woman.

"Oh, come on, I'm just teasing." She giggled. "May I?" She asked stretching out her hand towards Celest. Nathan clicked his tongue in annoyance before shoving her towards Rika.

"Now now, that's no way to treat a lady." She pouted and started guiding Celest out of there.

"It was nice doing business with you!" She looked back and blew a kiss before leaving his sight.

"You, my dear redhead, are going to be a big help!"
