*Three Years Later*

After the drama was released it became a big hit. This was mainly due to the male lead, but along with it's high ratings, Ji-eun's popularity rose too. Over the next few months she'd taken part in commercials and photoshoots, busying herself with work.

Her second drama had gone much smoother and along with her increased experience, acting as a couple seemed to be much easier too. She'd played many roles over the next few years - the lovable little sister, broken-hearted schoolgirl...

Of course as much as her head told her not to she'd kept up with the news about superstar Park Chanyeol and couldn't help but feel jealous whenever he began filming a new drama.

His agency had invited her to many film premieres but she'd always made up an excuse just in case she ran into him. It was hard, but she'd somehow managed to avoid him since that day.

"Why do they need me here again?" Ji-eun mumbled, entering the agency doors.

"They said it was about casting for your new drama" Lohee replied, staring at her phone as she led her inside.

"Is it really urgent enough for us to be here at this time?" she moaned, wiping sleep from her eye and zipping her hoodie up.

"Someone's schedule was too busy so there was no other choice" she answered. "Couldn't you have worn something more-?"

"It's 2am Lohee, I was hoping to sleep" Ji-Eun answered, looking down at the pair of grey sweatpants and matching hoodie, wishing she was in bed.

The pair walked along the corridor to the meeting room, stopping outside as another actress approached Ji-eun.

"You're really lucky" she muttered, giving a fake smile as she examined the girl and letting out a  scoff as she saw her outfit.

"What do you mean?" Ji-Eun asked, annoyed that someone had interrupted her sleepy walk to the office.

"Most actresses dream of working with him at all...and you" she sniggered, clearly displeased by something. "You have it all too easy"

"But-" Ji-eun yelled, immediately being dragged away by her manager. She tried to break free from her grip as she was dragged into the meeting room, growling in anger.

"Easy?! I can't believe that bit-" She screamed, only stopping as Lohee dug her elbow into her side, releasing the actress as she froze in shock.

"What the he-" Ji-eun stopped, turning around to be met by the confused faces of the agency staff.

"Er- I'm sorry" she mumbled, quickly bowing and finding a seat opposite one of the guys. "You can continue" she said, too distracted to see the boy next to her, staring at her face.

The silence was broken as one of the staff spoke up, continuing their earlier conversation. "As I was saying...Kim Ji-eun will be playing the female lead" they announced, peaking the girls interest at the sudden mention of her name. Everyone's eyes seemed to be staring at the seat next to her and she looked up.

"I look forward to working with you again" a cold face muttered, reaching out it's hand for her to shake.

"Y-yes- me too. E-err with you of course" she chuckled, eyes frozen on the familiar face next to her. His hair was a different colour to when they'd last met, a grey-ish shade, but he looked as handsome as ever and she felt stupid to have not recognised him before.

Ji-eun sunk into her chair in embarrassment as she ed the actress outside and her loud entrance into the room, peeking to her side for a moment to look at the actor's face for the first time in years.

Park Chanyeol hadn't changed at all.

He stared at her outfit with a dark expression but was clearly trying to hold back laughter, causing the actress hugged her body in embarrassment, giving him an awkward laugh before focusing on the managers again.

Ji-Eun was playing a rich heir to her father's company and Chanyeol a swindler who she caught trying to make money from her. After making a deal with each other he agrees to help her revenge on her ex-boyfriend if she pays him. But can she really trust him?

The writers all spoke with an excited tone but Ji-Eun was too shocked to focus on their words. All she could think of was the short distance between their bodies as she shuffled on her seat and the fluttering in her stomach which brought feelings of dread to her.

They were acting together again. But what if everything from before was going to be repeated?
