One Shots // Bae Rona x Joo Seokhoon ✨💫🌃

S3 : Reunion (1.2)

" Suddenly faced with the reality that he was the one who broke up with her. Seokhoon finds himself im a awkward situation where he has to convince his ex to go somewhere with him."

—--—--——--—--——--—--——--—--—

Fumbling in front of the huge door, Seokhoon contemplates how to face her. His heart still flutters whenever he sees her but he didn't know how she would react once she saw him at her door after that hell of a break up he did.

'Whatever just do it Joo Seokhoon.... You reap what you sow, just be nice and try to be friendly with her.'

Slapping his face out of his trance releasing a sigh, he feels his heart beating so fast that cold sweat literally dripped down his bangs covered forehead.

Without much hesitation, Seokhoon presses on the doorbell and snaps himself out of his thoughts.

Rona was home alone since Jenny went out on a 'dinner' with Minhyuk and Mari was apparently busy with something. She was just about to change into her pajamas when the doorbell rung cancelling her plans of relaxing for the rest of the night.

Pressing on the monitor, Rona is shocked to see the least person she would have expected to rung her door  today.

'Joo Seokhoon....?'

Feeling her heart race and her palms sweaty, she's reminded of the day they parted as lovers. It didn't exactly end in a good note and she now wonders why Seokhoon would be at her front door.

Breathing in and out, she snaps herself out of it and approaches the door. Pushing in the lock and turning it, she finally opens the door and meets eyes with the person who still melts her heart.

Feeling his sweaty hands, Seokhoon wipes it on his pants and fumbles with his hands nervously after crossing eyes with Rona.

Looking away from her eyes, he finally starts to clear his throat and tries to straighten himself.

'What are you doing here?'

Rona's soft voice breaks the awkward and tensed air as she looks down avoiding eye contact as well.

'You.... Need to go somewhere with me. Eomma is asking me to come and get you.'

Internally, Seokhoon was hitting himself on the head several times.

'You dumbass.... Why did you say mom? You should've just said you were the one who came to get her.'

Rona nods in shock and a slight disappointment and finally looks up at the face she missed a lot.

'Ajhumma is alive? Where is she? What happened?'

Feeling flustered at her sudden attack of questions. Seokhoon clears his voice and replies.

'You can come with me. We might have to leave now since it's getting late.'

Nodding timidly, Rona follows behind her tall ex and they walk in silence down to the parking lot of Hera Palace.

Realizing that he had to ask Rona to sit behind him, he sweared the whole building could probably hear how crazy his heart was racing.

Turning around silently, the awkward pair accidentally met eyes.

'You might have to sit behind me.... Is that okay?'

Flustered at his revelation, Rona convinces herself that they were no longer lovers and there was no reason for her to feel awkward. They just have to be civil.

'I'm okay.... You said Ajhumma is waiting for me... Let's just go, there isn't any reason for us to be like this... Right?'

Flustered at Rona's sudden change of attitude, Seokhoon nods and gets on his motorcycle (that cursed motorcycle 🕸️🤣)

Although still stiff, Rona also follows behind trying to not lean on him as there was still that tension between them.

Seokhoon smirks as he could see her reaction from his peripheral vision, since he already had his helmet on he swiftly holds her hands and wraps it on his waist startling her.

'You said we didn't have to be awkward.... Hold on tight, you might fall.'

Nodding timidly but slightly smiling, Rona wraps her arms around his waist as she clasps her hands together. Since he couldn't see her anyway, she leans her head on his back as he starts the engine.

Seokhoon could feel his cheeks blush a deep crimson, he couldn't help but secretly smile as he finally feels the familiar feeling of her warmth after such a long time.

As the motorcycle zoom fast to their destination, the night deepens and soon enough they arrive at Logan's hidden cottage.

Handing the helmet to Seokhoon, Rona gently fixes her pink coat dress and her hair. She then scans the location with slight confusion in her face.

'Miss Rona....?'

Turning around to look at the familiar voice, Rona smiles politely and bows at the man in suit.

'Secretary Hong...? I didn't expect to see you here.'

Secretary Hong smiles at the female and points his hands towards the cottage.

'Welcome.... You must be so tired, if you could follow me. There is someone important who has been awaiting  your arrival.'

Walking ahead, Rona glances at Seokhoon and he simply points to Secretary Hong and replies.

'You can go with him, I'll just wait and sit down on the bench here.'

Rona awkwardly nods and turns her back from him as she follows the secretary to the huge and modern but mysterious cottage.

Seokhoon's eyes doesn't leave Rona's back as he finally breathes out calming his heart and wiping his cold sweat.

' That was much more nervewracking than It thought it would. It's gonna be okay, Joo Seokhoon.... You can do this.'

Reassuring himself, he sits down the wooden bench and gazes towards the closed cottage door.

He knew the possibility of Rona coming out angry and even sad would be close to 90%, knowing that Logan would finally tell the young woman how her mother died and even her biological father.

Glancing with obvious pain and worry in his eyes, he knew he couldn't bother them and could just wait.

Suddenly a loud voice inside slightly startles him.

'SSAEM!!!!!'
