"Hello! Can I help you with something, or are you just looking around?"

Seonghwa jumped a bit at a store worker's quirky attitude. He nervously touched his cheek as if he were thinking, then shook his head.

"N-No, thanks. I'm looking around," he stuttered. The woman only smiled and shifted her attention to other customers.

Seonghwa looked around the store he was in. Never did he think he would be standing here today.

The store had tiny lights hanging from the ceiling, which Seonghwa couldn't locate because it was dark. He had no idea how tall the building was.

From some corners played music — loud, aggressive voices and instruments boomed out of the speakers. Seonghwa tried to stay away from them as much as possible.

He was walking through a large shop selling various pop culture items and novelties. But he wasn't there for those things. No, no, no. Seonghwa looked a little further past some aisles to see pink and purple boxes against the wall, stacking up to the level of the dim hanging lights earlier.

Well, he found what he was looking for — kind of.

Seonghwa's eyes didn't stop moving around the section he was in: adult novelty. Everything caught his eye: from vibrators to cuffs, to costumes and even machines... How was this store still open to all ages?

But Seonghwa didn't dwell on that yet. Now that he was here, he only wanted one thing. Later he could return for whatever he'd like.

"Do you need help, sir?" another employee asked kindly. Seonghwa shook his head and muttered no. He felt flustered. To the employees, he probably looked like a mixture of a kid in a candy shop with a horrified mother finding smut stories on her child's laptop...

Anyway, Seonghwa looked around a bit, grasping the inspiration of future erotic nights with the items. But once again, he wasn't necessarily here for those objects.

He gave up. With so much stuff on the walls and shelves, he approached the first employee who spoke to him, now covered in shame.

"Do you... have lace garters?" Seonghwa scratched the back of his ear. The woman held her genuine smile and beckoned him over a few lines. It's possible she's heard that question a few times before.

"Thanks."

"Of course."

Seonghwa bit his lip at the different outfits before him. They were colorful and varying in style. He almost wanted to buy everything there.

After a few minutes of turning over package after package, Seonghwa finally chose one he thought he'd like to wear. He quickly left the store, then the rest of the mall, scared to be spotted by someone he knew.

Seonghwa felt a rush of cool air blow on his face as he entered his home. Great. Hongjoong left the heater off again.

"Hello?" he called. No answer. Seonghwa's cold fingers turned the heater knob before leaving towards the bathroom, ready for a much-needed bath.

"It... goes like this?" Seonghwa asked quietly, looking at himself in the mirror. Around his hips fitted a snug, black, lace thong. But slightly above, where his fingers ran over, was the top piece to the matching leg garters. The sheer fabric tightened over his legs to his feet.

Seonghwa bit his lip. The package wasn't kidding when it said it would highlight curvy parts of your body. He ran a hand through his wet lilac-grey hair and huffed. Should he wear the heels?
