“so... remember when i told you i had a crush on someone...?” ace scratched the side of his cheek sheepishly, leaning back in their kitchen stool. “i may or may not have went on a date with them the other day, tae...”

ace noticed something while living in the apartment--- while obviously, him and joshua had been the closest in the small space, he hadn’t known tae all that well to begin with. sunny and him seemed to get along just fine, but tae had just seemed to be mysterious to him. he couldn’t figure out how someone could be so polite all the time; so composed. he wondered if the other had ever gotten mad before. no one is THAT nice, ace was convinced. he decided to test his theory. let’s see if tae will get mad.

so that morning, ace had been hiding behind the kitchen counter, hoping the scare the living shit out of his roommate ( with a leftover cheap halloween mask on ) and when he jumped out to scare tae, he ended up slipping on the slippery floor and crashing down in front of him. “agh...” he slipped the mask off and above his head, rubbing his cheek. “unbelieve-bubble. how hard is it to scare someone? tell me you were at least a little bit scared?”

“don’t ever say i’m not talented...” ace started, as soon as joshua walked through the front door of their shared apartment. he held up the brownies he baked to joshua and smiled widely. “not only do they look good but, wait for it.” he started to flip the whole plate around and as if the brownies were about to fall off of the plate; they didn’t. in fact, they were stuck to the plate well enough that they didn’t move. this was the most entertaining thing he’s done all day. any person who knew him would be convinced that he was child in an older man’s body. “magic.” and then he continued to spin the plate in a 360 rotation. “tell me this isn’t the coolest thing you’ve ever seen, joshua. tell me.”

ever since bb and ace’s date, ace had been wanting to spend more and more time with the other. despite the date being sorta y’know, fake, he had almost treated as a real one. he made sure to keep in contact with the other boy and he next asked bb to meet him out somewhere, hoping to return the favor for making his shit night into an actual great one. it was a small, quiet bookstore nearby. surely, it had a starbucks in there and one that ace had really loved to go to but he also really enjoyed buying books from there as well. it was his safe heaven, his peaceful mindset. everything felt at ease there. 

hands slipped into his pockets, when he heard footsteps behind him, ace spun around with a huge, giddy grin and waved at his now friend. “hi bb! thanks for meeting me here.”

ace never knew how difficult it was to live with someone who is-- well, technically speaking, your ex. this seemed to be something out of a tv show scenario and at times, it felt like that. of course, the two of them hadn’t been financially stable enough to move out and live separately so they had settled for living together for now, but as friends. let me tell you, that was hard. ace had to stop himself from falling into their old routine as a couple each day and instead, was trying to move on. so there he went, going to mixers with his friends and meeting a few new people to try and get his mind off of nayoung. which brought this back to present time, as ace walked through his apartment door arm in arm with another woman. ace and her have gotten along quite nicely actually, much to his surprise and decided on bringing her home with him. he wasn’t much into one night stands but he was starting to realize that he had to get used to them. all of his friends had advised him that the best way to get over someone was hook ups, hook ups and more hook ups. so, that’s what he planned to do. 

the blonde woman stepped into his apartment with a look of curiosity as ace slipped his shoes off by the door, in which she followed the action shortly after to be polite. “welcome to mi casa.” ace smiled at the woman, winking and interlacing their fingers again. stepping into his living room was the worst possible thing he could do as nayoung was there and ace nearly jumped a foot in the air at seeing her. yikes. “h-hey nayoung! i didn’t know you were still awake...” he looked between his ex and the new woman, feeling as though he needed to introduce them. “this is rose. rose meet nayoung, my roommate.”

“ugh.” ace had his hands covering his cheeks, simply embarrassed by the outcome of this night. stood up...again by his stupid boyfriend, who seemingly cared more about well...anything else but him right now. even more so, this restaurant was a place he regularly went to and now he looked like a fool in front of the waitress. she seemed to be sending him sympathy glances all night, along with the manager who knew him as well. why did he have to make friends with everyone he met? it was a blessing and a curse. “stupid, stupid me...” he mumbled to himself, blinking away any tears that were starting to form. he was even garnering looks from the tables next to him, a family of four who were whispering among themselves and even an elderly couple that had been staring at him for the past 10 minutes. he should just leave, it was better that way. he started to get up from his seat, and grab his petticoat jacket, tucking it beneath his arms. “so much for date night.”

actor ace roy had been fading out of the spotlight for a while now. his movies, as much as he hated to admit it, weren’t doing as well as they used to. his first one or two movies had become a hit. the movies afterwards though? flopped completely. it wasn’t partially his fault, in his defense. his publicist insisted on him taking romantic comedy roles, instead of the action parts he really wanted to take. he was so tired of romantic comedies, or just comedies in general. he really wanted to take part in drama films now, to be considered a ‘serious’ actor now and not some lame actor who couldn’t choose his roles wisely. ugh. now instead, his manager had somehow convinced him that dating another hugely successful celebrity would help his reputation and make a name for him in hollywood. at first, ace had protested...why on earth would he want to be known for dating someone else far more famous than him? it was whatever. after many days and meetings with his team, ace finally (much to his annoyance) agreed and signed the contract for him and dae’s ‘relationship’. the contract had included the following; going on fake dates, letting paparazzi pictures be taken of them everywhere, have at least one scandalous rumor/drama to happen to them (though it had mentioned the more, the better) and even more conditions, much to ace’s disbelief. he felt like he was living his life through one of his movie scripts. it wasn’t such a nice feeling.

today was the first day of their operation; get everyone talking about the pair. he was suppose to meet dae at his place and have the two leave together and into the limo, going to some fancy restaurant both of their managers had agreed on. probably some high profile place, with clear view of paparazzi shots. in conclusion, ace had been dressed up rather nicely and hair fixed by his stylist as he knocked on dae’s door. “delivery for kim daesung!” ace cleared his throat, knuckles brushing across his lips as he hid what was a small grin. “your date is here!”
