It's been three months since I was injured and came to South Korea to visit Monsta X and started my new relationship with Changkyun. Every weekend, we would have our date night that always ended with us making out in the moonlight at the dorm. We grew closer every passing day and my friendships with the others also grew. Kihyun and I are always in charge of cooking together, with the occasional help from Wonho. Jooheon, Minhyuk, and I would spend hours gaming together until Minhyuk and I would team up and prank Jooheon causing him to pout. Shownu and Wonho would take turns helping me get back into an easy workout to help my leg get better. Hyungwon would teach me some more choreography from their songs. Changkyun and I would occasionally escape the craziness in the dorm and head to his studio to listen to music and have our private time until Kihyun and Minhyuk blows up our phones, demanding us to return. The guys were busy with their comeback tour and since I wasn't hundred percent better, I just stayed at the dorm and decided to keep myself busy until they return. I started working on designs for a clothing line that I have been planning. I even started making my return to social media after taking a break from it, but I didn't reveal where I was or my new relationship. Instead, I posted YouTube videos without a facecam, telling fans that it will be a while before I get a camera since I don't have a proper set up. I even started making TikTok videos outside, which made fans curious about my location, but I never gave them an answer. Every day was filled with peace, love, and happiness and I couldn't ask for anything else. That was until one day, Shownu had received a phone call... The guys had just returned from tour and had been resting up as much as possible. Changkyun and I were laying in his bed, cuddling and enjoying our time together. "I'm so glad to be back home with you," he sighed, running his fingers through my hair that was now going past my shoulders, "I missed you like crazy, baby." "I missed you, too, Kyunnie," I smiled, kissing his cheek, "but I will admit. I love the new song, Jealousy. I especially love the video." "Thank you for the support, baby," he smiled before capturing my lips. I smiled and returned the heated kiss as his hand slipped under my shirt, resting on my side. "Someone's a little needy," I teased as he smirked. "I miss my baby, what can I say? I missed holding you, touching you, kissing you," he said, capturing my lips once more. His hand slid down and squeezed my thigh as the kiss deepened and a soft moan slipped out of my mouth. "Now who's needy," he teased, leaning down to kiss me once more until someone started banging on the door. "Changkyun!" He sighed when he heard Wonho calling his name. "I need my own place so we won't get interrupted," he mumbled, making me laugh as Wonho knocked again. "Changkyun! We have to go to a meeting," Wonho said. "Okay. I'll be there in a second," he replied, looking at me, "duty calls, baby." I nodded as he gave me another kiss before climbing out of bed and fixed his hair and clothes. "Ashley has to be there too," Wonho said before walking away. I sat up, raising an eyebrow. "Me? Why me?" Changkyun shrugged as I stood up, fixing my hair and quickly got dressed, putting on a black skirt and a red shirt with my converse. "I hope I didn't get you in trouble or anything." Changkyun chuckled and shook his head. "No way. The Director loves you and so does the crew members. You did help them a lot with makeup and our outfits. You even helped with the camera so no. You didn't do anything wrong, baby." He pulled me in and kissed me before we walked out of the room and joined the guys and headed out to where they had to go to a meeting. We arrived at a large building and went inside. We were led to a large room and sat at the table. I sat between Changkyun and Wonho as we waited, Changkyun resting his hand on my thigh. "I wonder why Ashley needs to be here," Kihyun said, the question lingering on everyone's mind. The door opened and the Director from Monsta X-ray walked in, smiling as we greeted her. "Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you so much for being here," she said, smiling before she looked at me, "and thank you for being here, Ashley." "Thank you for having me," I said as the Director of the company walked in and greeted us. "Good afternoon, everyone. We won't keep you long. First off, congratulations. The videos, the album, and tour were successful," he announced, "and we have some great news." He turned and nodded towards the woman. "Get ready because Monsta X-ray was renewed for a third season," she said then looked at me, "and this time, we would love for you to be a part of it, Ashley." I blinked twice, letting the information process. "You want me on the show? Are you serious?" Both directors nodded at my question. "We put a lot of thought into it. We think the fans would love to see the bond that you have with everyone here. The fans loved the reaction video that you filmed with the guys so why not give them what they want," she explained. "That's only if you're comfortable with it because we know that you and Changkyun haven't went public with your relationship so we won't talk about it or do anything if you don't want to, Ashley," he explained, "you don't have to do this if you don't want to, especially since you've been dealing with your leg injury." I looked down and thought about everything. "I'm fine with whatever you decide, baby," Changkyun whispered to me, giving my leg a reassuring squeeze. "I'll do it, but I wish I had met you guys sooner because I know that in the last season, you guys got to work with animals and I'm jealous because I could've played with the cute little raccoons and monkeys," I said, pouting playfully as everyone laughed. "Good. Thank you for joining us for season three," she said, smiling at me and that was when a thought hit me. "Wait! Do I have to wear one of those tracksuits? Please say I don't." The director and everyone laughed, completely ignoring my question. We returned to the dorm and Kihyun and I started making lunch, Changkyun once again taking his role as DJ while Kihyun and I started singing. "When these two are singing, that's a sign of food being made," Minhyuk said, walking into the kitchen as I started fixing plates for everyone. "They could sing a duet and I bet the fans would love it," Wonho said, making me blush. "Oh stop. I'm not good at singing. I get too nervous sometimes," I confessed as everyone grabbed plates and sat at the table. "That's so not true," Changkyun said, "we've all heard you sing and you have the talent for it." "I agree. We should make a video of you singing with us and ask people what they think of it," Jooheon said. I sat next to Changkyun and sipped my drink. "Well, I always love trying different things so I guess I'll give it a shot," I agreed as Changkyun rubbed my side. "Maybe we can get you to rap with us, right, Jooheon," he smirked as Jooheon nodded. "Don't push your luck," I giggled as we enjoyed lunch, chatting away as always. After lunch, everyone went their separate ways to do what they do best. I got changed into some shorts and sports bra before I went outside with a towel and laid it in the grass before laying down with my sunglasses on and my earbuds in my ear listening to music. I always enjoyed the beauty of the outdoors and laying in the sun always made me feel relaxed and one with nature. I sighed as I became lost in thought when a shadow appeared. I looked up and saw Changkyun smiling and looking down at me. "Hi, Kyunnie," I smiled, removing my earbuds. "Hey, baby. What are you doing out here?" "Enjoying the beauty of nature." He sat down next to me, trailing his fingers up and down my thigh. "I have a question to ask, baby," he said, rubbing my thigh. "Sure, Kyunnie. You can always ask me anything." He reached up and grabbed my hand, rubbing my knuckles slowly. "Well, we know that you wanted to visit us for a while since you can't wrestle until next year and the holidays will be here before you know it, all of us were wondering if you would like to spend the holidays with us? We usually don't have much to do, but since you're here, we can actually plan something together, like a family. Plus, I want to spend as much time with you as possible, baby. So what do you think about that," he asked as I sat up. "I would love that, Kyunnie. I just don't want to be a burden on you guys," I said as he cupped my face. "You're not, baby. We love having you here and we just want to celebrate holidays with you. Halloween is almost here which I know is your favorite holiday because it's also your birthday and we want to throw you a party, baby. Plus we can also celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the New Years together. I want to spend it all with you, baby. So will you stay with us?" I smiled and nodded as he kissed my lips softly. "Good. I'm glad," he smiled, caressing my cheek and kissed my forehead, "I'm going to go tell them the good news. You just relax a little longer, okay?" He gave me another kiss on the lips before standing up and walked back inside. I smiled as I laid down, thinking of how much fun this was going to be. As the sun began to set, I returned inside and was immediately scooped up into a bear hug. "What's going on now," I giggled as Jooheon rubbed his cheek against mine. "I'm so glad that you're staying with us longer," he said, finally releasing me. "Of course. You guys wouldn't have half the fun that you're having now without me here," I teased as Changkyun gave me one of his button up shirt and I slipped it on. "That's true. You've been like a ray of sunshine since you've been here," Minhyuk said. "Thank you. I'm just glad that you guys aren't sick of me yet." "Never. It's fun having you here. I love having someone here to help me cook," Kihyun said. "Anytime. I could definitely teach you a thing or two in the kitchen," I said, sitting in Changkyun's lap, "I have so many recipes in my head that I cook that I think you would love them." "Well, we eat a lot so we would love to try some," Changkyun said, nuzzling into my back. "I've seen some videos of you cooking and everything you cook looked delicious," Hyungwon said. "Hm. Well, maybe one day, I can cook you guys dinner," I said as Wonho nodded eagerly, "just know that when I cook, I cook a lot and I cook a lot of different items." "That's perfect. The more, the better," Shownu said. My phone began to ring and I looked down and saw that I was getting a video call from my father. "Uh oh," I smiled, fixing my hair as I stood up and button the rest of the shirt. "Is everything okay," Changkyun asked as I smiled. "My dad's calling." "Wait. What?" I answered the call as a muscular man with long black and gray hair appeared on my screen. "Hello, my beautiful Angel. How are you doing," he said in German, smiling at me. "Hey, Daddy. I'm fine. How are you? How's mother and big brother doing," I asked in German, smiling as Changkyun stared at me. "We're wonderful. Where are you, Angel? I tried calling your home and Frank answered the phone, saying that you're gone." I smiled nervously, scratching my head. "Well, since I'm going to be out of action for the rest of the year, I decided to leave America and come to South Korea," I explained. "Why are you there? Are you trying to have another vacation house there," he asked. "That's not a bad idea actually," I said before getting back on topic, "well, I'm actually here visiting some friends and my new boyfriend." "Boyfriend? Who are you dating? I must see this boyfriend." "Daddy, don't be too hard on him. I'm with Monsta X, a k-pop band and I'm dating one of the rappers." "Monster X?" I giggled, shaking my head. "No. Monsta X." "Monsta X? Okay. And they're a group?" I nodded, glad that he understood what I said. I leaned over, showing him Changkyun who waved. "Hello, son. How are you? I'm Felix, her father. I hope that you're treating her well. I do have the means of finding you if you break her heart." "Daddy!" Changkyun chuckled as I blushed before grabbing my hand. "I'm good, sir. My name is Changkyun. Don't worry, sir. I would never hurt your daughter," Changkyun said in German, making my dad smile. "Good. We should get along perfectly then. She said that you're a rapper for a band?" "Yes, sir. I'm the youngest member of Monsta X. We met her when we were invited to surprise her during a recording and I felt in my heart that she might be the one for me so I asked her out and we've been together for three months now." "As long as my Angel is happy then I'm happy for you both. We will have to all get together one day for dinner. I won't keep you kids. I just wanted to check on my Angel. I'll talk to you kids later, okay?" "Okay, Daddy. I love you. Tell mother and Alexander that I love them too," I said as my dad said goodbye and hung up, "I'm so glad that it ended pretty well." Changkyun chuckled as he filled everyone in on what happened. "So that was your dad," Wonho asked and I nodded, "he sounded so intimidating. I didn't know what was happening." "That's my dad. He's always like that especially when he meets new people," I giggled as Changkyun hugged me. "It's a good thing that I can speak German," he sighed. "Yeah. That's a good thing otherwise he would've been super confused by the entire conversation," I said as I wiggled free from his arms, making him pout as I walked out and went to the bathroom, getting cleaned up before grabbing my sketchbook and going back to the living room and sat in Changkyun's lap. "Anyone up for starting a series tonight or maybe a movie," I suggested as I started drawing. "We should watch an action movie," Jooheon said. He grabbed my controller and went to Netflix, searching through the action movies. Changkyun lifted me up and carried me over to the large couch in the living room, placing me in the corner section of it. He went back to the kitchen with Kihyun as they prepared snacks for everyone. Minhyuk plopped down next to me as Changkyun returned and placed drinks on the table before returning to the kitchen. "What are you drawing," Minhyuk asked, watching me. I smiled as I showed my sketch of faceless figures that I've been working on. I added facial features first before working on the hair. "I've been drawing you guys. I'm doing this based off of memory. This is from Shoot Out relay dance," I said as he watched me. "Wow. That looks amazing," he said as Changkyun sat next to me with a bowl of popcorn. "I hope that you're going to let us have that when it's done. It'll look nice on the wall in here," he said as I stopped drawing and set my book on the table. "Once I'm done, I guess I can let you guys keep it," I teased as I settled in and cuddled up to Changkyun as everyone got settled as Jooheon started the movie. Changkyun relaxed and pulled me closer to him, resting his arm on my shoulder as everyone chatted about the movie. After the movie, everyone got ready for bed since tomorrow was the first day of filming for Monsta X-ray season three. I showered and got dressed, braiding my hair before walking out of the bathroom and went to the room that Changkyun and Hyungwon shared. "Do you guys think that they're going to have me wear one of those green tracksuits too," I asked, putting my stuff away. "I don't think they will. You can probably wear whatever you want," Hyungwon answered from his bed. "You could probably make those tracksuits look better than us," Changkyun chuckled and Hyungwon nodded in agreement. "Green isn't my color though," I pout as I climbed into bed next to Changkyun and snuggled up to him. Since the night we became official, we started sleeping in the same bed. Hyungwon didn't mind since half of the time, the three of us stayed up talking together until we fell asleep. "I wonder what they have planned for us this time," Hyungwon said. "Whatever it is, I'm sure that it'll be fun," I said as Changkyun kissed my forehead. "I just have this weird feeling that you're going to be mischievous," he said as I smiled innocently. "I would never. I'm too sweet to do anything," I smiled as they both laughed, "oh shut up, you two. I'm going to sleep. Good night." I turned over as Changkyun pulled me close, wrapping his arm around me, burying his face into my hair. "Good night, baby," he mumbled, kissing my neck before we fell asleep. The next morning, I felt something soft and warm against my cheek and slowly opened my eyes. I smiled and looked up at Changkyun who was looking down at me, smiling when he saw me looking at him. "Good morning, beautiful," he mumbled in a husky voice as he kissed my forehead, holding me closer to his chest. "Good morning, Kyunnie. How long have you been awake," I asked, nuzzling into his chest. "Not long. Hyungwon got up and left to go pick up breakfast with Minhyuk so they'll be back soon, which means," he smirked, rolling us over and captured my lips in a heated kiss. I sighed as he kissed me repeatedly, making me melt each time our lips touch. "Kyunnie," I whispered, staring into his eyes as he caressed my cheek. "Baby...I..." A loud knock startled us, ending whatever moment was about to happen. "Breakfast is here , guys. Get up," Hyungwon said. Changkyun sighed before kissing my cheek and getting out of bed. "On the way," he replied, running his fingers through his hair as I got out of bed and followed him out of the room and to the kitchen where there was pancakes, bacon, eggs, and coffee was on the table. I grabbed a plate and coffee and sat at the table, sipping the smooth drink as Changkyun sat next to me. "Ready for today," he asked and I nodded. "I'm not. I wonder what they have planned for us," Jooheon said with a sigh. "I just hope that it involves animals because I so want to be there," I said between bites. "You really love animals, don't you," Shownu asked. "Yeah. I actually use to play with wolves when I lived in Russia. We lived near woods and there were a lot of wild deer, bears, and wolves. My brother and I would always go out and feed them. I even feed the wildlife that's near my home now," I giggled, "I have a big heart and I hate seeing animals or people suffer so I try to help as much as possible." "Wow. I love that about you," Changkyun mumbled. I raised an eyebrow and turned to look at him. "Um. Forget I said that," he chuckled nervously, blushing as he finished his plate and quickly got up and left the kitchen and went down the hall. "Is he okay," I asked as everyone chuckled. "He's fine. He's just nervous about today," Jooheon assured me before getting up and walked out after him. Changkyun was in the bathroom, brushing his teeth when Jooheon walked in, leaning against the door frame. "Did you almost say what I think you were going to say," Jooheon asked as Changkyun rinse his mouth and wiped off with a sigh. "Yeah. And it wasn't going to be the first time. I almost said it this morning too," he said as Jooheon looked at him. "Do you?" Changkyun blushed, running his fingers through his hair. "I do. I honestly think that she's the one," he confessed. "Don't tell her. Not yet at least. How about doing it on a special occasion, like her birthday? We take her out to dinner and you tell her then," Jooheon suggested. Changkyun thought it over. "I think that would be perfect. And...I think I want to get her a promise ring." "She will love that. If you want, all of us can sing Perfect Girl instead of happy birthday." "That would be awesome if all of you guys can help with that," Changkyun said. "Hey, man. That's what family is for. Besides we all love her like a sister. Having her here has been amazing. Who knows, maybe you can get her to move here permanently. We'll plan everything out later. We have to get ready to go," Jooheon said as they shook hands before everyone started getting ready to go film Monsta X-ray.
