Holding your purse with one hand and coffees with the other, you greeted the new kind of secretary at the hall of where Baekho's studio was.
"Good night. May I help you?"
"Oh, good night, I'm here to see Kang Dongho."
"And who you might be?"
"I'm his girlfriend."
"Look, this is a serious company, and I don't think Mr. Kang Dongho would like to be interrupted by some fan."
"You're really new here, right?"
"What does that mean?"
You would answer the young lady but a sudden call caught your attention. Mingi was passing by the hall and saw you.
"What are you doing down here?"
"The new secretary assumed I'm a fan and just it, so I can't enter the building."
Mingi didn't say anything to you in response, but guided you to the entrance once again and spoke with the secretary.
"Good night, Yuri. I thought I told you Baekho's girlfriend was coming."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Choi. I just didn't knew it was her. I'm sorry to you too, miss.
Should I announce your presence to Mr. Kang?"
"No need, I'll walk her to his studio."
The girl allowed the entrance and bowed to the two of you.
"Thank you, Mingi. I thought she would call the security."
"Nah, it's ok. But I don't know if she was really just doing her job or if she was jealous."
Seeing your confused expression, he just chuckled.
"Don't take this too serious, but I think she has a crush on Baekho. Now she knows for sure to not invest anymore."
"Wait, had she tried something?"
"Oh, no. She's just too obvious, but Baekho doesn't even notice. Don't worry about it. But now, go see your boyfriend. He's almost losing his hair about the new song."
"Ok, thank you again, Mingi. Until next time."
He waved at you before you enter the room n° 7, where Dongho usually worked on music producing. Which was what you were waiting to see, and not his figure curved by the table, with hands on his hair and lots of paper around him, on the table, the couch and the floor.
"Bae?"
He just hummed until recognize your voice and turn around, so you faced a disheveled hair and a tired expression. You put the coffee on the mini refrigerator and walked to his chair, sitting on his lap and pulling him onto your embrace. For a few minutes, the only thing heard in the room was your breathing and the sounds of little pecks you left in Dongho's head.
"Talk to me, baby. What's happening?"
"I can't find the right lyrics to write this song, and I'm losing my mind."
"Mingi's said you're losing some hair too."
He chuckled lightly with his face buried into your neck.
"I can't say that I know what you're going through, but I understand the feeling of frustration about something not working how we want it to, so I'm here to help you with everything I can."
"I must had been too good in my past life to deserve you in this one."
It was your time to chuckle and peck his lips.
"Let me see what you've got so far."
Getting up from his lap, you collected some pieces of paper that weren't totally destroyed and called him to sit with you on the couch.
"This is all trash."
Reading some of the lyrics, you noticed that they were kind of similar.
"It is a love song?"
"It should be. But right now it's just an idea. It seems I can't work on it."
"I'm sure you can. I have never doubted your talent for music. And you always makes amazing songs that we're all blessed to appreciate."
Dongho's shy smile appeared and you caressed his face.
"I'm seeing a pattern here, and I think you could combine some of the lyrics to see if it can work. What do you think?"
He hummed and you both worked on the verses that would fit each other, choosing the best ones and trying to think of melodies. You didn't worked with music, but dating him made it a regular situation for you to understand and try to help.
After almost an hour, you did the last combination from some verses and sang to him, to see if it would work out well. It wasn't like you had a great voice or something like that, but Dongho always liked to hear you singing, specially because it wasn't a regular thing and he thinks your voice is sweet and addictive as candy. But he seemed so fazed by your voice that you thought he didn't liked, so you were almost giving up.
"If that doesn't work for you, we can try some more."
"Do you mind to go to the cabine so we can record this? So I won't forget."
"What?"
"I think it's the first time tonight that something sounds so simple and beautiful, that makes me think it's almost natural. No stress, no overworking, just... Pure and good content. That's what I'm looking for."
Dongho knew that his praises always makes you feel good, but in that moment, it didn't sounded like he was trying to make you feel that good. It was just a sincere feeling, making your heart flutter with the idea that you really helped him. At least, a little.
"Come, let me help you to record it."
The rest of the night seemed to work easier. Since you already started to launch the song, might as well finish a demo to be recorded later. So it worked like a lovely duet, performed by a lovely couple. It was sweet, in a calm rhythm, with a chorus that lingered on lips and heads. Dongho helped you during all the process, almost like if you were a real singer. And in the meantime, he worked on his voice to fit yours equally, so the song would come out good to the both sides, creating a feeling that you described to Dongho as 'getting home after work and finding comfort in your partner arms'.
You just didn't knew that Dongho was already making plans to make this official, with music video and everything allowed, to show the world how much you both were made for each other. The real home that you waited the whole day to finally reach and be comfy at night.
