Chapter 1

                                    

                                          
A/N: Hello my babies, this story will be not-so related to the plot of lookism, and also, I will age up the characters here. So take note that both characters are in their early 20s, probably at 22. I'm sorry if I wrote this first rather than the GOLD AND SILVER, I just don't know how to write that one.

"Oh my gosh. Bae, you need to see this." 
I groaned and took the blindfold off my eye. I am now taking a quick rest inside my changing room. I am currently taking a break from my four hour shoot for a brand campaign.
Sitting up straight, "Why? What is it?"
My manager, Jeun Kim, showed his phone to me. 
Model Y/N L/N caught up in a dating rumour with Kpop artist DG upon fans' observation of the two having matching items and posts.
"What is this bullshit?" I asked with furrowed brows.
"Hun, this ain't bullshit. This can give you more promotions and can boost your name to the public." He said and clapped in hands in excitement.
I frowned at him, "Really? Are you serious right now?"
The man rolled his eyes on me, "Of course, why would I not be?"
I clicked my tongue against my teeth. I lay back into my seat and closed my eyes. 
"Deny it." I muttered and placed the blindfold back.
Jeun quickly took off the blindfold from my eyes, "No, no. It's not up to us."
My brows furrowed at what he said. "What do you mean it's not up to us?"
"Well, considering that DG here is the bigger person, no matter what we say to the public, his statement will be the most adhere. Thus, what we say will be disregarded right away." He explains.
I groaned, "Whatever. What are we going to do then?"
"We do nothing." He said like it was no big deal.
Frustrated at the situation, I ran my fingers through my hair. Earning a slap in the hand by Jeun. 
"Why did we even get linked? Matching items, are they being serious right now?" I said, my face almost crumpled.
My manager only chuckled. I turned my head towards him
"This is not funny. Like, anyone can have matching things, so why is this creating an issue?" I ranted out.
Jeun crosses his arms, "And why are you so fed up with it?"
 I rolled my eyes on him. He obviously doesn't get my point here. He knows well how I hate being paired up with some bunch of dudes. I don't even do photoshoots that require me to be with a male partner. 
"Look, we are here to benefit in the situation. The people are more on the positive side here, so why are you being so negative about it." Jeun said and dropped his hand into his hips, "The shoot will continue in 10 minutes. You should get ready."
He left the dressing room and I was soon taken care of by the staff. They only did a small retouch on my face and hair. I changed into another outfit before going back outside.
When the shoot was done, Jeun took me back to my apartment. 
"Don't go outside too much. The press are camping outside of your apartment." He said while driving.
I nodded while still looking at my phone. I was scrolling through my Twitter, which is now flooded by discussions of the people about the dating rumours. I groaned and turned my phone off.
