"Are you sure you can manage right?" Namjoon says, hesitating to get on the scooter with Era. "I can be pretty heavy."
Era laughs, "Trust me, Arin literally has a dance party every time I am driving, I have handled worse."
Namjoon still looks unsure but gets on the back anyway. "I thought you guys took the subway so I asked Jungkook to offer you guys a ride, didn't know..."
"We usually would have but today we didn't. It's totally fine though, Arin doesn't like scooters anyway. She must have been more than happy to sit in Jungkook's car. "
Namjoon hums and places his arms on the handle at his back to hold himself just fine. Era looks over her shoulder, her helmet almost hitting his. "All set."
"Maybe?"
Era chuckles, "Just relax."
And when the scooter moves, Namjoon grips the handle tight, afraid he'll fall off. What made him think it would be a good idea to talk to her while she's driving? Namjoon's sure he would rather not disturb her. Era often glances back to check if he's okay, even though she can only see his helmet and hear some choked screams when she takes a turn or there's a speed breaker.
They stop in front of the Hybe building and Namjoon immediately gets off, breathing heavily. "Please remind me never to sit on such a scooter again." He says, removing the helmet and handing it to Era.
"Alright, Kim Namjoon, never sit on such a scooter again." Era laughs, hanging the helmet on one of the handles and Namjoon looks at her, dumbfounded. "But are you sure? You're really going to work this late?"
"I need to wrap a few things up. No one else can do it currently now, can they?" Namjoon sighs. Era gives him a sad smile. She wants to talk about the soulmate bond but she's not sure if Namjoon would appreciate it.
She's surprised when he takes out her notebook and AirPod case from the bag he was carrying. He places it in front of her, Era removes her helmet and hangs it on one of the scooter's handles.
"It's up to you now, how you want things to be."
Era stares at the items in his hand. He then takes her hand and places the AirPod case on her hand and repeats. "Up to you."
Era shakes her head, immediately pushing her hand towards him, "It's a two-way thing though, you have an equal say in it too."
Namjoon chuckles, shaking his head and pushing her hand back towards her, "That's what I said. I have already made up my mind, it's up to you."
Then it clicks her, making her slightly embarrassed and she smiles sheepishly. Namjoon then fishes out something from his pocket and holds it in front of her.
It was a miniature bonsai keychain.
"The story behind this...it's a little silly of me but I always thought what if I meet my soulmate and they turn out to be someone...like a fan, or just someone who I can't be with." he sighs, "I thought I should have a gift for them, to thank them for being my soulmate and...be sorry about the same."
