Today was going to be rather long since I had a LOT of editing to do. Of course, I wasn't working alone, but still. I checked out BTS's creation for the theme song.

The doorbell rang and I rushed to the door, opening it. I was about to turn back, used to having coworkers coming. But I froze. It wasn't a coworker. It was Taehyung.

"Hi." I smiled and he responded similarly. "Come in!" He followed me, offering me that coffee cup he was holding.

I leaned on the counter, looking down. I could feel Taehyung's eyes on me.

"About last night-"

"Please don't say you're sorry." I had looked up and my eyes stared right into his brown ones. He was clearly taken aback, surprised. For a few long seconds, I wondered what was going on in his head.

"I'm not. I'm not sorry at all." Taehyung smiled and I chuckled nervously, relieved.

"I was afraid you'd come and tell me you were sorry. But I-, if you were, I would've said okay. But to be honest, I haven't slept so well in ages. And...yeah. Yeah, I'll stop here." An amused smile played on Taehyung's lips and I focused on my now strangely interesting cup of coffee.

He had one eyebrow slightly raised, probably enjoying how I just made a fool of myself. He pursed his lips and smiled, biting on his lower lip before going around the counter and taking my hand, something he seemed to do a lot these days.

I closed my fingers on his hand and followed him to the computer.

He let go of my hand and I already missed the warmth of his hand. I brought a second chair and sat right next to him.

This morning was amazing, just hard work, with Taehyung. Nothing extraordinary.

"Don't you have training? Practice?" I inquired.

"Well, actually, today is a kind of day off for all of us. So I can be here all day." I pretended to be disappointed.

"Oh. Okay." I sighed and held my smile and triumph as his face fell.

"But if you need to work, I can just-"

"I'm just kidding!" I ruffled his hair, laughing. For a second he looked at me so intently I felt my cheeks burn up. "Coffee? Tea?"

"I'll have a tea." He smiled.

Oh my gosh I love his smile so much it's making me crazy. Kiaraa get your act together and go get those that darn tea.

"Yeah, I'll do that!" I spun on my heels and walked to the counter. "You wanna take a break?" I offered.

"Sure! What do you want to do?"

"Well, you're going to take your mask, put a hat on and head outside with me. Take this thermos flask. And your coat."

Taehyung jumped his chair and did as asked, took his coat, put his shoes on. He took his mask.

"Ah, Kiaraa?" I turned to him, raising my eyebrows. "I don't have a hat. I came without."

"Oh, that's no problem, I'll give you one of mine." I dismissed, putting my coat on and putting on a bucket hat.

I looked through my drawer and picked the first that came which turned out to be one identical to mine.

"I don't usually wear those." He argued. "Jk does but I rarely do."
