Waste It On Me ( BTS Namjoon x Reader)

Part 4 - Chapter 10

December 31st 2019

“Happy New Year”
“Happy New Year” you smile back, lifting your mug of mint tea, “it’s so weird to say that, it’s the middle of the afternoon here” you laugh.
“officially 2020 here” Namjoon steps from the hallway of the shared apartment into the crowded living area and holds his phone at arms length.
“Happy New Year” Jimin pops up over Joon’s shoulder for a second, the phone spins wildly then Yoongi is on the screen sending well wishes.
Namjoon snatches the phone back and sits down on the sofa.
“are you all having fun?” you smile, hearing so much commotion and cheering from his end, your empty house seems so different in comparison, “I wish I was there celebrating!”
“you will be next year” he grins.
“I will” your chest aches with excitement and longing.

The week before Christmas your request to transfer to the Seoul office had been approved, the agreement would be that you keep your role, but there may be some antisocial times for calls with the other offices. You plan to coordinate any trips back to the office with visiting your family and friends. The date is set for mid-February, only another 6 weeks to wait. Your stomach pools with excitement every time you think about living with Joon, filling with nerves about how life-changing it will be to move across the globe, and then sparks of dread at how much you need to get done before then.
You have someone coming to view your house next week with the view to renting it from you for the next few years. The thought of packing is overwhelming, but you will be leaving your furniture and a lot of household items, but there will still be loads to have shipped to Korea.

“the mattress for the spare room arrived today” Joon’s smile is so beautiful.
“You’ll have everything done before I get there” you whine, “half the fun of moving is the finishing touches”
“it certainly needs your touch” he reassures you.
“needs your touch?” Taehyung repeats in English, trying to translate the words in his head, he sits down next to Joon.
“we are talking about the apartment” Joon corrects him in Korean and Tae grins his lovely boxy smile.
“ahh” he winks at you through the phone and Namjoon shoves him gently with an elbow.
“only 6 more weeks” you smile, your heart bursting from the desire to be on that couch chatting with Joon and Tae.
