Double Date

YO CHUL's POV

"Make sure you learn the recipe properly next time. Otherwise, I might just have to fire you. Got it?" Annoying, just annoying. All they need to do was follow the recipe.

Asian Spice, it's one of my restaurants and that's where I am right now. We're having our two-day off. It's been a week since we've been in hell from all the practices. A couple of companies also wanted me to star in a drama. But hell no. It was already hard enough for us since JayB had a drama of his own. Plus, he has other projects as well. Can't blame the talented guy though. It makes me respect him even more. But he's been off lately. Must be a marriage thing. I'll check on him later.

Well, this two day off was something I look forward to. I get to spend the afternoon later with Jeongyeon since they were at it for two weeks before they were at the cool down period of their promotions. For now, PD-nim wanted to give them an ample amount of time to rest before they get back in the game. I can't wait to see my girlfriend after I deal with these people in my restaurant. I hate people who slack off.

"Yes, Chef. I apologize. It won't happen next time." One of my cooks said.

"It better. Or else, there won't be a 'next time'." I bluntly said.

As soon as I finished assessing the kitchen cooks, I went to check the place if it was well kept and maintained by the managing team. I only give two chances. Otherwise, I'll change the entire staff completely. The mistake of one can cause the jobs of others. For me, the kitchen is a place where teamwork happens. No one is the boss, everyone is treated the same. We make each other better. That's the goal. If they can't correct their colleagues nor help them, then they don't deserve a place in my restaurant.

"That plant. Move it. It'll cause traffic when the servers and the customers pass by." I instructed. A couple more instructions came after that. I did one more inspection just to make sure.

"Chef Park, there's someone here to see you." My secretary said.

From the restaurant's doors a woman came who was just wearing a long tee that almost looked like a dress with a pair of jeans and white shoes. Her presence was enough to lighten up the mood. I turned to my secretary. "Secretary Ho, please make sure to handle the rest. I'll be off now."

"Understood, Chef." He chuckled as he patted my shoulder.

I went over to her and gave her a kiss. "Hello, beautiful. You look more gorgeous every single day."

She giggled as she playfully slapped my arm. "Stop it. Your employees are watching."

"Let them watch. I want the world to know that you're mine." I teased as I gave her another peck.

"Alright, alright. Let's get go grab lunch first. I'm starving." She said as she started pulling my hand away from the restaurant.

"But we're already at a restaurant. Can't we just eat here?" I suggested.

She rolled her eyes. "You know how I feel about eating in one of your fancy restaurants."

I laughed. "What's wrong with my 'fancy restaurants'?"

She turned to me and pinched my nose. "I don't like things fancy. I prefer the nicest and simplest things. Besides, it's better to eat in a fancy restaurant when we have our friends over."

"Whatever you say, boss. So, where to?" I shrugged.

"There's this Vietnamese restaurant that's been generating some buzz on social media." She excitedly suggested.

I chuckled. "In short, you want Pho Noodles. You do realize that we serve the best-"

"Babe…" She cut me off.

I raised my hands in surrender as I chuckled. "Fine, fine. Let's go see this for ourselves. Alright?"

She gave me a quick peck on the cheek. "This is why I love you."

"Everything alright, babe?" Jeongyeon snapped her head towards me and smiled as soon as she heard that.

"Ah? I'm fine. It's nothing." She insisted.

I sighed. "You know that we have this unusual skill that can sense if something's wrong or not, right?"

"I'm sorry. It's just Dahyun-ie… I just don't want to talk about it when we're having a date. Especially since we waited this long to finally have a proper one." She answered while mindlessly mixing her noodles.

I took her hand and caressed it. "Hey, this is one of the many reasons why I fell in love with you. You always like to take care of other people."

"Like you're one to talk." She chuckled as she rolled her eyes.

I smirked. "What can I say? We've got a lot in a common."

"Thanks for making me smile." She held my hand tighter.

I smiled at her. "So you were saying something about Dahyun-ah?"

"Right, so I talked to her last night. I can't reveal the entire conversation we had but in short, she said that JayB-oppa told her that he likes her. But she's too afraid to love him back."

My eyes widened in surprise. "JayB-ya said what now?"

"Yeah! I know! Didn't he tell you anything?" She asked as I shook my head in response. She then sighed. "What do I do?"

"Well, I don't know what JayB-ya's thinking right now, but I do know one thing. It's that if JayB-ya likes someone, he doesn't give up that easily. I'm guessing that he already confronted Dahyun-ah with those exact words." I deduced.

Her mouth fell open when she heard that. "He actually did! How did you know? Are you sure you don't know anything? You aren't hiding anything from me, are you?"

I chuckled as I rested my head on my one hand. "Of course not. That's just how JayB-ya is as a person. He's one stubborn dude."

"I have to agree with you on that one." Jeongyeon laughed.

"So what are you going to do about it?" I asked.

She shrugged. "I don't know. I just want them to be closer and talk about stuff I guess. Dahyun-ah's been looking forward to this virtual marriage thing for a very long time."

"Well, it's the same with JayB-ya." Just as I finished saying that, an idea popped inside my head. "Babe, I've got an idea. But we have to cut our date short."

"Hey, if it means helping out our friends, then why not?" she shrugged.

I smirked. "I knew you'd say that. Now here's what we're going to do..."

__________

"Just get your ass here. I know you're filming is still on Monday and you have nothing better to do today." I yelled at JayB over the phone.

We came up with a plan to fix things. Jeongyeon was inside the restaurant making a phone call while I was doing my thing. I knew that this was going to be hard since JayB's really a stubborn person.

He groaned. "But hyung, I don't want to be the third wheel!"

"Come here, or I'll quit the group." I threatened him.

He gasped. "You wouldn't…"

"You know I would." I nonchalantly said.

There was no response from the other end before I heard a sigh coming from him. "Alright. Just for today. Okay?"

"Yes! Good! I'll see you here in 30 minutes! Don't forget to bring me a pair of trunks! Thanks!" I yelled over the phone before hanging up.

"Is JayB-ya coming?" Jeongyeon asked as she went out of the restaurant.

I gave her a thumbs up. "Hell, yes. How are things at your end?"

"It went surprisingly well." She admitted.

I chuckled. "Good, all we have to do now is head to the meeting place and wait for them there."

"By the way, aren't there many people in the water park this afternoon? It is a Saturday after all." She asked as she clung to my arm while we walk towards the car.

I gave her hand a peck. "I rented the whole place for 5 hours. So we have it to ourselves until our rent is over."

Her jaw fell wide open. "The things you do for your friends. I bet it cost much."

I shrugged. "Not really. The owner of the water park owed me a favor. I decided to cash it in for our friends."

She shook her head in disbelief. "You really are something, Park Yo Chul-ssi."

"What? What did I do?" I chuckled.

She gave me a big hug. "I love you… you know that?"

________

"Great! You're finally here!" Jeongyeon yelled excitedly as Dahyun got off from a cab.

We were in front of the water park near their parking lot. There were only a few people here so we weren't catching any attention. We were waiting for our companions to arrive and join us on this date. It's already been more than 30 minutes since we called them. They were late, and it was testing my patience. I can't blame them though. It's an hour past lunchtime so it's the rush hour here.

She smiled wryly in returned. "I'm sorry, unnie. The traffic was terrible."

Jeongyeon chuckled as she clung onto Dahyun's arm. "It's alright! At least you got here safely!"

Dahyun turned to me. "Hello, oppa."

I smiled at her. "Hello, Dahyun-ah. You okay?"

"I'm good. Thank you for inviting me. Are we going inside now?" She replied before asking me shyly.

Jeongyeon gave her an evil smirk. "Not quite. We're still waiting for one more person to arrive."

"Really? Who?" She asked ambiguously.

I turned to the parking lot where a jet black sports car just arrived. It made me smirk. "Speaking of the devil himself, he's finally here."

Dahyun turned to where I was looking at and it was really fun to watch her look so surprised as JayB got out of the car. She snapped her head towards Jeongyeon with a glare on her face. Jeongyeon didn't budge as she crossed her arms and smirked at her. "What? What are you looking at me like that for?"

"I think something came up, unnie. I'm going home." Dahyun snapped.

Jeongyeon tried to stop her. "Dahyun-ah, what is wrong with you? You said you wanted this fixed."

"I'm going home, unnie. And that's final." Dahyun responded angrily.

"You don't have to. I'll go home. I know how much you love water parks. Thanks for the invite though, hyung." JayB tossed me my stuff before he starts walking back to his car.

I click my tongue. "Shut up, both of you! You are BOTH coming to this date, AND you're going to talk to each other about what's wrong, or SO HELP ME, I will make sure that the only food you'll be eating for the next two years is a can of sardines from a convenience store!"

They all flinched before Dahyun and JayB bowed their heads in embarrassment. I glared at them. "Did I stutter? Why aren't you answering me?"

Both of them nodded while giving me a resounding "yes". I then went ahead of them as I started walking towards the information desk. Jeongyeon suddenly clings to my arm as she giggled. She then leaned over to whisper. "You know… it was really cool what you did back there. For a second there, I thought that you were pretty hot."

My eyes widened at what she said. "Jeongyeon-ie…"

She then leaned in for a tender kiss. "That's your reward. There's more where that came from."

She then gave me a wink before she took Dahyun by the wrist and started dragging her towards the dressing room. JayB then walked over to me. "Do I have to suffer by watching you guys act lovingly the entire time?"

His words made me chuckle. "You don't have to if you work things out with Dahyun-ah."

"Suffering it is." He said before he went to the dressing room.

I sighed. "This is going to take a while."

We took our time to change but the ladies were taking much longer. JayB was wearing a pair of black board shorts with a dark blue tank top. It was really fitting which emphasized his body greatly. I ,on the other hand, was wearing a black pair of trunks with a white oversized Hawaiian polo. I also wore a white bucket hat. It has been fifteen minutes since we waited for the girls to finish. They still haven't come out yet.

"What's taking them so long?" I was running out of patience.

JayB was scanning through his phone. Probably work related. "Relax, hyung. It takes time to get into swim suits."

"How would you know? Have you tried putting one on?" I snapped my head towards him.

JayB sighed as he continued fiddling with his holo-phone. "I have two sisters… make it three now. Of course, I'd know. You have a sister of your own, right? You should know these things too."

"It's complicated." I muttered.

He then stopped what he was doing and turned his attention to me. "Are you guys still fighting?"

His question made me sigh deeply. "She still wants more of the company's shares."

"What? You already gave her 20% of it." JayB gasped.

"Well, it didn't take her long to drive it under the mud." I answered.

JayB patted my shoulder. "Do you need help?"

I gave him a reassuring smile. "I can still handle it. When the time comes, I'll let you know."

"Hey, I'm here for you, hyung." JayB assured.

"Sorry we're late!" Jeongyeon came out from the dressing room with Dahyun.

My eyes widened at how beautiful she was. Jeongyeon was wearing a crop top white shirt with a black swimsuit underneath. She paired it up with some jean shorts. Dahyun was also wearing a pair of jean shorts to cover the bottom part of her black one piece backless swimsuit.

"You look amazing." I breathed out.

She giggled. "Thank you, but… are you really going to go bare chested while were inside?"

"Yeah, why?" I shrugged.

"I don't know. Other girls might look." She teased.

I rolled my eyes. "It's just us. Don't worry about it."

I turned my attention at JayB who was looking at Dahyun with astounded eyes while his mouth was also wide open. Dahyun blushed as soon as she saw JayB staring at her. "Do I look weird? Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Ah? Oh no! You just look… wow… just… breath-taking." JayB was smiling from ear to ear.

Dahyun then raised her eyebrow. "So should I just wear this when I come to work?"

JayB snapped out from his trance and smiled wryly. "That's not what I meant."

"I'm kidding." Dahyun said before winking at him.

Jeongyeon and I stared at each other before grinning. The plan is finally working. I took Jeongyeon's hand before calling out to JayB and Dahyun. "Let's get going guys. There's so much food that I want to try. There's so much we need to do as well."

"It's my first time here. What should we try first?" Dahyun asked as we pushed the entrance doors open. As soon as we saw what was inside, we were dumbfounded.

JayB then smirked. "Extreme slides. Definitely the extreme slides."

JEONGYEON's POV

"Again! Again! Let's go again!" I exclaimed excitedly as I got off the rubber raft.

We've been playing in the water and trying out most of the park's slides for more than an hour now. It's been a constant tug between trying to get everyone wet and the idea of scaring Dahyun to death through the extreme rides. I guess JayB-oppa learned something about her wife. She's terrified of heights. We got on one of the longest slides in the park where four people ride on a raft making them face each other. The facilitator would then push the raft off letting it swing left and right at a fast pace. We were all enjoying it all except for Dahyun.

"I think I'm going to be sick." Dahyun said as she wobbled while walking towards a wall to lean on it.

JayB then placed his hand on Dahyun's back. "Are you okay? Do you need anything?"

Dahyun swatted JayB's hand away. "I'm fine."

I sighed before turning to Yo Chul-oppa. "Babe, I'm craving for some ice cream. Can you buy us some?"

Yo Chul smirked as he understood what I meant. "Sure, babe. JayB-ya, let's go get some ice cream for everyone."

Both of them started heading to get us the desserts. I then turned to Dahyun and pinched her side. "What is wrong with you?"

Dahyun threw an angry look at me. "Ah! Unnie! What the hell?! What did I ever do to you?"

"You know what you're doing. Why are you treating JayB-oppa that way?" I crossed my arms as I raised an eyebrow at her.

She sighed. "That's none of your business."

I scoffed. "None of my business? This involves my friend being tormented by one of my members."

Dahyun rolled her tongue insider her cheek. "So you're siding with him now? Wow! Good for him."

"I'm not siding with anyone! Dahyun-ah! What are you seeing that we aren't?" I asked.

She sighed. "You wouldn't undertand."

"Then make me understand." I told her as I held both of her arms to make her face me.

She bit her lip as she stared at me. "I'm just afraid of falling in love with someone who obviously loves someone else."

My jaw dropped as soon as I heard it from her. "You're either really dense, blind or stupid."

"Is being cautious stupid?" She rolled her eyes at me.

I grabbed her shoulders and shook her. "Wake up, will you? He was trying his best to care for you the entire time!"

"Big deal. He's like that to every girl. What makes me special?" She said as she sat on the pool side.

I sighed. "You haven't noticed it, haven't you?"

"Noticed what?" She slowly turned her head towards me and asked.

I gave her a small smile before sitting next to her. "Well... ever since he came here, his eyes never left you, even if Yo Chul-oppa and I called him. When you were having trouble agreeing with us with which slide to go first, he has been trying his best to out argue Yo Chul-oppa. Even when you were closing your eyes as we went down that slide a while ago, he was looking at you the entire time as if he was preparing to protect you in case something happens. Dahyun-ah… he purposely didn't have fun today, because he wanted to make sure that you would."

Dahyun remained silent for a while as she played with the water trying to draw something. I knew that she was contemplating on it so I didn't push any further. I just patted her back while I waited for her to talk to me.

"We're back." Yo Chul-oppa announced.

I turned to him and gave him a peck on the cheek and took one of the ice cream cones from him. He then smiled at me. "What was that for?"

I leaned on his shoulder as I took a bite from the ice cream. "I just feel like rewarding you."

JayB-oppa approached Dahyun and handed her the ice cream cone. "Here you go, Dahyun-ah."

"Thank you…" Dahyun shyly thanked him as she took the ice cream.

I then had an idea. "Oppa!~ Why don't we take a look at the penguins?~ Hmmm?~"

Yo Chul-oppa saw that I was giving him a signal as he chuckled. "Alright, let's go."

"I'm coming with you." JayB-oppa said but was stopped by Dahyun as she grabbed his wrist.

"JayB-oppa… can we talk?" Dahyun said in a low tone.

JayB-oppa turned to us as we gave him a nod back. I smiled at Dahyun. "We'll give you two some space to talk. Let's go, oppa."

We immediately went away and started walking towards where the penguins were. My boyfriend then took my hand gently as he pressed his lips on the back of my hand. "Did you and Dahyun-ah talk?"

"Mhmm." I hummed.

"Do you think it'll work?" He asked.

I sighed as I wrap my arms around his arm clinging onto him. Somehow, I felt safe when I cling onto him like this. "We just have to wait and see."

He chuckled. "Knowing how convincing you sound, I know that it'll work out."

"You think so?" I chuckled.

He turned to me and gave deep kiss on my forehead. "I know so."

YO CHUL's POV

"Well that was fun!" Jeongyeon said as soon as we exited the park.

We were able to spend the rest of our time on a proper date. We went to see the dolphins AND the penguins. Jeongyeon absolutely loved it. I never thought that we would have a proper date today considering there were people tagging along, but it surprisingly went well. We even had a proper meal before changing back to our clothes. The next time we met JayB and Dahyun was when we were about to head to the dressing room. The way I saw things, it must havegone well.

"Thanks for inviting us again, Yo Chul-oppa." Dahyun said with a smile.

I gave her a smirk. "Did you just say 'us'?"

Her eyes grew wide as she realized what she just said. She suddenly started turning really red considering how white her skin is. JayB chuckled as he took her hand. "We really appreciate it."

Jeongyeon approached JayB and punched him in the arm. I flinched as soon as I saw that. JayB was rubbing it hard. "Jeongyeon-ah! What the hell?!"

"Now you know how hard I can throw a punch. If you hurt her, I swear…" She glared at me.

JayB then turned to me. "Hyung, your girlfriend is crazy! Why didn't you stop her?"

I threw my hands in the air. "Don't drag me in this conversation, JayB-ya. I'm terrified of her. Why do you think I say 'yes' to everything she wants?"

Jeongyeon suddenly pinched my side. "Say that again… I dare you."

"I give up! I give up!" I yelled as I tried to escape from the pinch.

Dahyun and JayB laughed at the comical scene. It was definitely a great day. I wish every day was somehow like this. Suddenly, Jeongyeon snapped her fingers. "Right! I nearly forgot! We're about to end our promotions. But you're about to start them, right?"

I nodded. "That's right."

Dahyun gave JayB a sad smile. "So that means… you'll really be busy."

JayB sighed. "That's the least of my worries. We're going to be filming every day for the drama starting Monday. I don't know if it'll kill me then."

"You'll be fine. You're a monster after all." I joked.

He rolled his eyes. "Look who's talking?"

"Enough, you two." Jeongyeon stopped us from bickering.

Dahyun sighed. "Anyway… can we come visit you once your promotions starts?"

JayB pinched her nose which made Jeongyeon squeal slightly. "Silly wife. Is that even a question? Of course you can visit me anytime. Just make sure not to force it when you have a tight schedule. I don't want you to be stressed out because of me."

"Eyy… this is getting out of hand." I rolled my eyes.

Jeongyeon bumped her shoulder with mine slightly. "Just let them be, babe. It's nice that they finally get to do this."

"Anyway, we should probably go." JayB suggested.

"You can ride with us, Dahyun-ah." I suggested which she nodded in agreement.

JayB then interjected. "Actually!"

We all turned to JayB who was raising his hand. He cleared his throat before dropping his hand. "Actually… I-I was thinking if maybe I could drive her home instead? I-If that's okay with you Dahyun-ah."

Dahyun was looking at him with a straight face before she laughed cutely. "Why are you even stuttering? Anyway… sure! I'd love to! But I was thinking if we should have dinner first… you know… just the two of us."

We soon drove off as the Kim Couple, JayB and Dahyun, went to get dinner and us driving towards Twice's dorm. Jeongyeon then yawned. "Hey babe…"

"Hmm?" I hummed as I focus on driving.

"Thanks." She plainly said.

I took a glance at her. "For what?"

"For allowing them to come along. I know how much you've been looking forward to this date with just the two of us." She shyly said.

I smiled. "You don't even need to mention it. It was the right thing to do after all."

"Are you sure? You're not saying that because you're scared of me, right?" She joked.

I chuckled at how she's taking this. "I did it because I knew it would make you happy. Your happiness usually is stemmed from your friends' happiness."

"You did?" She raised a brow at me.

I slowly took her hand. "I did."

"You're really full of surprises, oppa." She said gently.

I brought her hand close to my lips and kissed it. "I love you, Yoo Jeongyeon."

She giggled as she leaned in to give me a kiss on the cheek. "I love you more, Park Yo Chul."
