Suzy considers between the perfumes lined up on the luxury department store display. “You can’t look so glum,” she chides cheerily after catching Jinyoung’s reflection in the glass, choosing a diamond-cut bottle and spritzing the sample. She holds out her wrist to Jinyoung with the same smile that the nation fell in love with over a decade ago. “It’s our day one.”
Jinyoung looks vaguely unimpressed beyond the guarded expression marring his first-love-manipulator brand of handsomeness. “If anything, isn’t this more convincing?”
“You’ve played the part before,” Suzy reasons in return, feeling the picture-perfect grin minutely slip on her face.
Jinyoung continues, “I’d only let myself get dragged around to be your designated shopping bag holder if I was head over heels in love with you,” out to draw blood himself.
Suzy bats her lashes at him and takes a step closer. “You know what that’ll do to my ego,” she threatens, giving the tabloids planted by management the best vantage point of her drawing her face closer to his from where they’re eyeing them from the Dior section.
He pulls his face mask down and reaches for her arm, placing his thumb precisely over her pulse. It suddenly thrums to life like a livewire at the contact. “You’ve always liked scents like this,” he points out casually. The worst was that he was right, even though Suzy always imagined he’d forgotten all about her years ago.
Suzy rips her wrist from his hold a little too hastily to imitate indifference. She pulls the waterfall of her hair away from her neck and presses the scent to her nape, a silent instruction of where Jinyoung should place his fingers next. “It suits me,” she replies.
She wonders what Jinyoung’s thinking about when he meets her gaze evenly again. He agrees, eyes flitting down to her jugular, so blatant that it has to be an accident, “A little too well.”

[BREAKING] 2026 New Year’s couple is Suzy and GOT7 Jinyoung
[+45, -5] Congrats congrats!!!
[+20, -1] I knew something had to be going on between them ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They were flirting throughout their entire drama press tour
[+13, -1] Wowowowow first love type + first love type…
[+4, 0] Their face chemistry is crazy… my eyes are having a feast ㅠㅠ
[+2, -1] They started as idol trainees together back in JYP when they were teenagers. Now they’re starring in a drama together and even fell in love for real. When you think about it, don’t they seem fated?
*************
Jinyoung’s on a diet, but so is Suzy. She studies the contents of his fridge with an analytical dexterity that only years of monitoring her appearance on screens could condition into her like instinct. Nothing between the pre-portioned chicken breast and steamed vegetables neatly packed into tupperware falls within her daily allotted calorie count though. There’s a gaudy fruit arrangement sitting on the bottom shelf, probably a new year’s gift from some ongoing brand deal, looking out of place compared to everything else. Suzy places it on the kitchen countertop, the plastic wrap cold and crinkling like static as she balances it in her arms.
Jinyoung comes back from the gym just as Suzy’s wrinkling her nose, draining the contents of a failed protein shake. “I would’ve picked up breakfast for you, if you asked,” he says, perfectly polite, taking in the smear of whey powder she left on his refrigerator door handle.
“It’s fine,” she dissuades. Jinyoung didn’t live in a luxury high-rise, but his place was bright and tidy in a way that suited him and surprised her all the same. They were in their thirties now but Suzy suddenly felt like her fifteen-year-old self again standing in the middle of Jinyoung’s kitchen, hopelessly immature and stuck mooning over the school girl crush she never could quite flush out of her system, even after long being disillusioned with the idea of romance. “There’s not a lot I can really eat these days, anyway.”
Jinyoung wets a washcloth in the sink and walks behind her to wipe off the stain. “I used to get in trouble all the time,” he remarks, “Covering for you snacking in the practice room when we were trainees.”
He’s not even that close to her, but Suzy can’t help but tense up. The sex had been a good but unintentional side effect of their contracted situationship, and a part of her knew that Jinyoung only allowed it because they went way back and he pitied her carnivorous girlish loneliness that bit off its mangled leash every time in his presence. That, and she was Bae fucking Suzy. It was almost scientifically proven that he couldn’t say no.
Suzy rolls her eyes. “They were more worried about your obvious feelings for me.” It wasn’t the truth, but she hoped Jinyoung would admit it. He was already making a lot of exceptions for her. He had to know she was selfish enough to attempt monopolizing all of them.
“We were young,” is all he says on the matter, brushing past the six years of radio silence, her petty refusal to follow him on Instagram, and the way he broke her heart when she was eighteen, turning down her confession to protect her then-burgeoning career with a sense of self-effacing tact. He’d left her to cry in her dressing room and wonder when he’d become so grown up in the two years she debuted and supposedly left him to trail after her wake.
Suzy picks at a skewer of shine muscats like flower petals, watching Jinyoung’s back as he wrings out the washcloth. He loves her, he loves her not. He used to love her, and then her astronomical fame intimidated him, and he convinced himself otherwise. All of those seem like lies when she really thinks about it, but Jinyoung won’t let on about what part about it is and isn’t her own thought-up fiction. And now she’s in one of his old GOT7 concert tees and slipping a grape in her mouth, all against her better judgment. “Don’t discount a love story for the ages,” she tries to tease over the hairline fracture in her superstar facade.
He tugs down the hem of her sleeve that had flipped up. “I wouldn’t dare,” Jinyoung promises with a smile in tandem, so earnest that he has to be making fun of her, breath ghosting over her cheeks. Like this, he has to know that she’s thinking of tilting her face up to kiss him.
Instead, Suzy bites down into the grape she’s been holding between her teeth. Its sweetness bursts in her mouth as her heart cracks apart again.

Dispatch January 1st Couple Suzy and Jinyoung’s Drama Kicks Off 1st Week with Strong Ratings
[+36, -1] It was seriously freaking fun and the chemistry between the leads is no joke
[+29, -2] The almost-kiss scene made my heart flutter… As expected, the level is totally different when you’re actually in love
[+20, 0] I’m kinda mad that no one cast them in a drama together sooner ㅋㅋ
[+13, -1] Saturday, come faster!!
*************
Her sister scrapes the cheesecake off the back of her spoon. “You used to like him so much.”
“Unnie.”
“I’m just saying,” she defends on the other side of Suzy’s dining room table. “You never really got over him, either.”
Suzy sighs overdramatically and sets her fork down on the dessert plate. “I’m doing a favor for an old friend,” is her rehearsed rationalization of it all.
Her sister raises her eyebrows at her in disbelief. “It’s his first project since his service,” Suzy continues to insist, “And the viewership ratings and good press haven’t been a slouch to me, either.”
“He broke your heart, Suzy,” her sister feels the need to remind her. “At this rate, you’re going to let him do it again.”
Suzy picks up her fork and starts stabbing the cheesecake’s top layer until the cream is covered with prong marks. “It’s just a business relationship,” she grumbles into her palm. “And anyway, he doesn’t see me like that. I’m not stupid enough to be in love with him after all this time.”
Her sister snorts, “Except that you totally are.”
Suzy glares in reply. “I regret telling you anything.” After spending her entire career loved by the public, Suzy couldn’t help but feel desensitized to the brunt of it, directed at her by strangers watching her projected on screens worldwide. They liked her for the carefully curated image she let them see, and while it wasn’t a complete lie, there was only so much that pixels and cameras could capture. To them, she was Suzy, girl in the video, the nation’s first love. Beautiful and untouchable and everything they fantasized she’d be.
But then there was Jinyoung, her own first love. Suzy wondered for years if it was supposed to feel this heartachingly tender, as easy to bruise as overripe fruit, desperate for reciprocation but too overly self-aware of such desperation that she ended up deadlocked into inaction instead. How deeply he had buried himself into her being that she couldn’t extricate these feelings from instinct.
“He’ll turn me down,” Suzy predicts, smiling at her own foolishness. How else was the girl on the billboard supposed to accept her storybook downfall when all she was known for was how prettily she cried during her screen test?
“Suzy-yah,” her sister says, gaze soft. “It’s okay to want to try.”

*************
“You can start seeing someone else again next April.”
Jinyoung looks away from his pretentious whiskey to stare at her. He’s all done up for their drama’s rooftop wrap party, and so is she. “What are you talking about?”
“We should date for at least a year.” Her stylist told her the lace collar adorned with rhinestones of her mini-dress was overkill, and that she’d freeze to death from the length for a mid-February night. But surprisingly her voice doesn’t waver at all as she delivers the rest of her pitch. “The public’ll get sick of hearing about us eight months in, you know.”
Jinyoung takes a well-timed sip of his drink, even without twenty cameras capturing every possible angle to catch the best shot. “Right,” he spurs on with mild intrigue.
“They can announce our breakup in January, and then you should pretend to be miserably heartbroken for at least three months.” She draws herself close enough to Jinyoung that she could loop her arms around his neck and still semi-convincingly pass it off as an accident. “Six months for me, or else they’ll call me a slut.”
The corner of Jinyoung’s mouth quirks up in amusement. “You can just tell me you’re not interested, Suzy,” he deadpans, point blank.
Now it’s Suzy’s turn to stare at him, dumbfounded. “And are you?” that awful girlish loneliness says in her voice before she can swallow it down. “Interested?”
“I thought that this was finally our chance, after all these years,” Jinyoung confirms with a betrayal of hope. “Maybe I was just being silly, though, thinking you’d feel the same.”
Suzy feels the sting of a double-crossed blade across the stones of her heart. “Then why didn’t you say yes when I confessed to you?”
Jinyoung regards her with a quiet devastation. “You know it wasn’t the right time.”
In that moment, he’s every bit the man in the movie that Suzy dreamed of when she was a teenager, before she knew a few others and fell into bed with them and found out that the silver screen wasn’t all that it was talked up to be. But Jinyoung made that naive part of her that she’d locked away surge up from beneath the floorboards, washing over her until the rose-tinted glasses and monochrome realism of her colossal fame coalesced into a singular image. Her bitter first love and the one she thought had gotten away. Little did she know that the tide had the mercy to bring him back to her.
She wipes her nose with the back of her hand from the cold. “It hurt, though,” she confesses. Distantly, she thinks that there must’ve been something better to say but can’t think of what that would be.
“I know,” Jinyoung says an awful lot like an apology, tucking her ice cold hands into the pockets of his suit jacket. “I’m sorry,” he says an awful lot like I love you.
Suzy rests her cheek on his shoulder. At some point, Jinyoung begins to sway them back and forth in a sad excuse of a slow dance for two past idols, off rhythm to a popular song at least 50 BPM faster than the pace they’re moving. Their trainee selves would pity their plight if they saw them now. But then again, they didn’t understand the ache of it in their starry-eyed youth.
“Should we restart the clock?” suggests Suzy, feeling hopelessly optimistic for once.
“Our day one for real?” Jinyoung’s laugh reverberates against her jaw.
She pulls back to look at him. “Who said it wasn’t real?” Like this, he has to know that she’s thinking of tilting her face up to kiss him.
The corners of Jinyoung’s eyes crease with crow’s feet. “Place your bets,” he grins back. And that’s really all the go ahead Suzy needs to press her mouth to his, indulging in her own melodramatic ending.
