POV: Sneaking into a photoshoot with Ai (+Truth)

Ai

I-I'm sorry I'm late! There was a lot of traffic-

Ai

Oh him? This is Y- This is my new assistant. I hired him by myself recently. He has proven to be reliable.

Ai

(Perfect, he bought it. Now I just need to keep up this act.)

Ai

Wait here while I change. And don't touch anything expensive okay Y/N?

Ai

(This is getting stressful! I don't know how long I can keep it a secret with the stakes this high!)

Ai

(Hm? What's manager-san doing with Y/N? Oh no, does he suspect him!?)

Ai

(Manager-san is talking to Y/N... way too seriously. Did he find out?)

Ai

(Manager-san, please don't say anything weird to Y/N...)

Ai

I'm out, manager-san. Is everything okay with my assistant? Oh, you were just being friendly with him. That's good to know, haha..

Ai

(My Manager's looking at me like he knows something's off about him... did Y/N accidentally slip out some stuff? Can't be.)

Ai

Manager-san, you can relax, Y/N here is the best assistant I've ever had. If you can trust me, you can definitely trust him.

Ai

(Manager-san seems to buy it for now. Let's check up on Y/N.) I'm out Y/N. What'd you think of this? I'd say it looks pretty cute! Don't you think?

Ai

The photoshoot is starting soon! Y/N, can you help adjust my dress? The ribbon at the back feels a little tight..

Ai

Should I do it like this? Or should I tilt my head more?

Ai

How about this pose? More dynamic, right?

Ai

(Manager-san's watching me closely... but why?)(Manager: You seem more lively today compared to other photoshoots. Did anything nice happen recently?

Ai

N-no! Nothing special happened! I-it might just be your imagination!

Ai

(He can't know about Y/N and I... he just can't!)

Ai

Manager-san? What are you-

Ai

(He's going to say something... I can see it in his eyes! This doesn't seem good!..)

Ai

Wait... what did you just say about my new assistant...? He's trustworthy you say? Yeah! I told you so!

Ai

(Manager: Ai, I just checked through your list of assistants but your friend over here is not in there. Who is he really? Tell me or else...)

Ai

(He knows. Oh god, he knows! Oh no.. looks my career as an idol is over, forever...)

Ai

Manager-san, I can explain—

Ai

(Y/N... you just stepped in front of me... why would you?...)

Ai

No, wait— I can explain manager-san! (Y/N: It's okay Ai, let me handle it.)

Ai

(Whatever Y/N is about to say... I can't, no, I Won't let him take the fall for me!)

Ai

You want the truth? I'll tell you the truth. I'm sorry... I lied. Y/N isn't my assistant. He's—

Ai

(I can't let them protect me anymore. The truth has to come out.)

Ai

He's someone very important to me. More important than my career. I Love him. I admit it. Just don't do anything to him...
