Hanse please
"OH, look the bunch of trainees are coming" Winter´s friends were whispering to each other, their noses a bit uppity. They were all seniors to the young trainees while Winter was a newbie in the department. A Canadian to be given a post in the company was already a rarity but whoever does the job best receives the praise as long as the company benefits from it. Those were the rules of the economy and the survival. Better learn those rules quickly unless one desired to be eaten by the corporation and while Winter´s choice of profession was somewhere far from being a mouse in the this labyrinth one would never turn down to work in Korea and especially a kpop company. Like why? They weren´t dumb, non? So Winter joined their colleagues in smiling and eye rolling.
All of them were reasonably handsome and cool, one more than the other but to Winter they all seemed pretty down to Earth and really trying to put on their best face in front of the stuff. After all, they were just starting and no one wanted to make themselves look bad and cause a havoc until there was a good reason for it. They all were walking with their heads down, their eyes on the ground, their backs ready to back down apart from one. Winter would later learn his name was Do Han Se. With a head up and a confident expression he was empowering so much that as his members noticed that he didn´t get any scolding they also raised their heads facing the newest gossip and criticism. Were they too tall? Too small? Were their looks according to the beauty standards? "What´s on the agenda?" he asked turning to face Winter´s group.
"Oh, actually" one of the unimpressed poked Winter. "Since today this is your new manager. Being here only for a month they had already proven to know the market and mainly English in case you guys would be popular overseas. " As if, she chuckled. For some reason, arrogance and swag were not considered sexy. Since when? ehm? Weren´t the tsundere types popular? Where is Eunwoo to prove everyone wrong? Winter smiled and let them introduce each other with a bow. Slightly confused about age and whether they should follow the protocol of Korean or American-International introduction it created a rather funny atmosphere. Everyone was bowing and showing hands and everyone was unsure what to do. Winter had no idea that such a task would be given to them but when it doubt employ the poker face.
"So what is on the agenda?" Hanse asked again, making his members turn to him with angry faces.
"Oh I guess, dance practice?" Winter was checking with the other stuff who were nodding quickly.
"Are we allowed coffee before?" He said with a firm voice.
"Actually we are running late so..." Seungsik finally stepping down and reminding everyone he was there too - THE leader.
"So maybe Winter could get it?" An innocent request of course but somehow it made them angry. What the heck???? Weren´t their trainees?
but now how were they different from the annoying, gossiping colleagues?
"Sure, I´ll get them" Winter took all the orders and went outside. Koreans love their coffee and know how to make it. It wasn´t a rainy day and despite it still being February, it was a pleasant walk as spring could already be felt in the air and the temperature was getting higher.
As soon as they got back (which was some time because OF HOW MANY COFFFES THEY HAD TO CARRY)
And as Winter was walking, the classical, THE MOST CLASSICAL, THE MOST PATHETIC MOVE THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN (in every single kdrama EVER) they tripped over the tsundere type of a character - insert Hanse - if only he .... did .... catch them.
Winter was falling ungracefully like a bag of potatoes and EVERYONE was catching the coffee cups like crazy. They even scream OH NO MY COFFEE as she was watching this happening that in slow mo, they could not believe this was honestly happening.
They fell down on their knees, only one cup spilling (a miracle) and almost crying.
Now, all of that seemed comical but back then? It seemed like no one cared so they packed their sad butt up and went to the hallway, not bothering to excuse themselves. Tears were coming to their eyes. Why? They were only trying to do their best and even THEY had to admit the whole scene was funny....
"Hey" a familiar voice was speaking, the voice that they grew to slowly hate.
"Hm" they answered.
"You are not crying, are you?" He came to her so close that they could feel his breath on their face.
"Why do you care?"
"Because I kinda like you"
kinda ... like ... you because they were obviously high school teenagers or something, but hey it was just the beginning. they would have to teach them how to confess properly.
♥♥♥♥
I have read Hanse is the tsundere type and milked it to the bone.
it is a bit rushed I think but I didn´t want to make it SUPER LONG.
I hope it is at least a bit cute though ♥ and that I managed to somehow, a little bit transfer it.
thank you so much for requesting!!!
