Taeyong already has the idea of thanking Jaehyun in mind when he came in for work today. He did come in early today so he could everything then deliver them to Jaehyun, so he could personally thank him for lending a driver to take him home last night. He doesn't know what will happen to him if that didn't happen. Maybe he could've walked a few miles just for his apartment.


He was in a pretty good mood. He was happy about what Jaehyun did but he shouldn't make it a big deal.


It took him a few hours to finish his job and redo some. Once he got everything, he simply exits his office, got greeted by his co-workers then told Jungwoo that he'll just hand the files to the CEO. He won't take long anyway. Maybe Jaehyun's busy with the prepping too.

Upon arriving at the floor, Taeyong bowed to some businessmen that he met on the way. They must've just finished. He met the CEO's secretary on the way who smiled at him and directed him to the office, just like the usual. Once he was presented, he comes into the office and heard the door closing by the secretary.

"Good morning, Mr. Jung," Taeyong greeted, "These are the documents you've asked for."

Jaehyun nodded, his eyes on the folder he has, "Thank you. You should've given it to my secretary."

"Well...I wanted to personally thank you."

The man looked up, stopping from reading, "For what?"


"For taking me home--well, your driver did. But thank you."

Jaehyun nodded, realizing it, before he proceeds on reading, "I need to take care of my employees anyway."


"Of course...I'll be taking my leave then."

Taeyong bowed before he turned. Jaehyun stopped and looked up secretly, watching the boy. He frowned before he sighed.


"If you'll ever stay in for too long again, tell me ahead...so I could tell someone to drive you home again."


The boy jolted a bit and didn't expect him to say anymore. He just nodded as an answer without looking back, "Will do, Mr. Jung," then he walks out.

When Taeyong closed the door, Jaehyun furrowed his eyebrows and facepalm himself, taking a groan, "Why did you say that?"





It was in the middle of the day, Taeyong was casually working in his office. He wasn't as busy as yesterday so he's stalling sometimes. Doyoung wasn't able to come and get him for lunch so he ate with Jungwoo instead. Well, he was busy because of the company and it's fine. They had times like this so it wasn't very new.

Although, he doesn't know he'll be getting a surprise from his boyfriend.

And Jaehyun accidentally knew about it.

He was by the ground floor. Talking to his meeting mates he met a while ago. Just having a little chitchat, trying to get their trust. As soon as he finished, he saw someone delivering a bouquet of flowers and coming into the building, going straight towards the reception. Jaehyun's eyebrows furrowed.

He waited until the deliver guy left. Jaehyun walked towards the desk and was greeted by the person behind it who was holding onto the bouquet.

"Good day, Mr. Jung! What can I do for you?"

Jaehyun pointed at the bouquet, "Who is it for?"

"Oh, it's for Mr. Lee Taeyong. Someone delivered it for him."

"From whom?"

She shrugged her shoulders and tried looking for a card but to no avail, "I have no idea, Mr. Jung. The guy just delivered it."

Of course, from who else?

Jaehyun nodded before he left, coldly.

Going back, Taeyong was called and excused by someone. The supervisor went curious as he was told that someone delivered something for him. He attended and his eyes grew big at the sight of seeing a bouquet of pretty flowers.

Suddenly, there's an occasion?!

The boy sheepishly smiled and laughed at the guy who delivered on his floor for him. He grabbed it then got so many awes in the department when they saw him holding it.

"Who was it from?" Jungwoo asked.

Taeyong shrugged, "Who else?" he whispered, "Hey, get back to work!" told to the others as he walked back into his office.

He placed it down on his desk and sat on his chair, grabbing his phone and called the culprit.

"What's the occasion, Mr. Kim?" Taeyong asked with a playful tone once his call was answered.

"Well, since we couldn't have lunch with each other, I'll have to compensate."

"I never asked you to compensate."

"I wanted to."

"By the way, you can't just send things to me. Especially in the company. I'm being watched by the stalkers, you know?"

"They won't know. Tell them it's from your family to say congratulations."

"Seriously, Doyoung--"

"You don't like it?"

Taeyong was taken aback, "What? Of course, I like it--I love them. I will have to bring them home too. Help me pick a vase."

"Just you picking something takes an hours, and that's just one thing."

"Hey, I want to think about it thoroughly. It's going into my room so it has to be perfect. Oh, I'll buy you one too so we can bought have the same vases--"

Suddenly, he stopped and looked up when he heard someone knocking in his door. Someone peeked in and excused themselves.


"Good day, Mr. Lee. You are called for an urgent meeting with Mr. Jung in his office."

"O-Oh, alright. I'll be there right away. Thank you."


Once he was left alone, Taeyong had to end the call.

"You heard that. I need to go."

"Okay, see you later then. I love you."

"I love you too, thank you again for the flowers."

Taeyong got curious what was the meeting all about. Must be really important to have some sense of urgency. He didn't bring anything on his way, it's just maybe about some plan again. He walked his way towards the office once he got off the right floor and knocked on the door, he opened the door to see Jaehyun on his desk, like the usual.

He comes in and gently closed the door behind him. The boy moved a little closer, standing straight.

"You called me, Mr. Jung?"

Jaehyun finished up what he was doing before he sighed and closed the folder, putting it aside before he looked at Taeyong.


"What do you say about having a team building next week?"
