rainy day was upon the city, which meant that Seunghyun and Jiyong were trapped inside. Jiyong stayed in the pajamas that Seunghyun had bought him while they were out the day before for most of the wet day, leaving Seunghyun to do some much-needed cleaning. Jiyong just kind of watched him as he entered and exited the living room several times, some new piece of furniture or decor getting cleaner with every trip he made. He felt compelled to offer some sort of help, especially considering that he was a guest in his home. 

"Um...d-do you want any help?" Jiyong asked, his volume going from soft to audible as the words left his mouth. Seunghyun, who was once bent over, stood up straight and locked eyes with Jiyong, who had his legs pressed against his chest.

"Uh..." Seunghyun started with a light sigh, looking around at all the things he had accomplished. "No, I think I'm good. I'm almost done anyway. Thanks for asking, though." Jiyong only smiled faintly and nodded in response to the elder's words. "Do you want me to turn on the T.V. for you?" Seunghyun's question made Jiyong turn to him again, as he had been previously turned away.

"Um...sure," Jiyong replied, nodding his head a little. Seunghyun stopped what he was doing and walked around the couch diagonal from the one Jiyong was on before picking up the remote.

Within a few seconds of pressing the power button, the once pitch black screen lit up and displayed the company's logo before any sound came through the speakers. Seunghyun went to the guide of all the channels with the press of a little, red button and started flipping through them.

"Oh, I love this show," said Seunghyun as he stopped pressing the button marked with a down arrow. He sat down on the edge of the couch behind him, resting his arms on his thighs.

"What about your chores? Don't you want to finish them?" Jiyong asked as he looked back at the mop briefly. Seunghyun looked at him and then turned around to look at the work he had started.

"Nah," he replied, swatting his hand a little as he pressed his back against the couch. "It can wait. We most likely won't be going anywhere for a while anyway."

"Are you sure? Cause I can finish them for you," Jiyong offered, letting his legs detach from his chest. "I mean, it's the least I can do after everything you've done for me."

"No, no," Seunghyun said, shaking his head. "You're my guest and you shouldn't be doing anything for me besides breathing." Jiyong laughed a little in response to Seunghyun's words. "I'll get it done eventually."

So, it was decided and they just watched television for a while. Seunghyun's eyes were practically glued to the bright screen in front of him, and Jiyong tried hard to make his eyes steer clear of Seunghyun, but they had other plans for him. They landed on him every few minutes, but he pulled them away whenever he thought he was about to get caught.

Despite what he would have liked to believe, Jiyong was slowly falling for this person.

"So, from then on I wanted to be an actor," Seunghyun said as he came to a finish on the story of his life. He had never told anyone about himself in such detail before, not even Minzy or Daesung. But there was just something about this Jiyong character that made him want to this time around. The alcohol probably helped, too.

"That explains why you're a detective then," Jiyong said, which made Seunghyun laugh.

"I guess it was one of those things that just happened, you know. I was a good enough actor to be a detective but not quite great enough to be an actor. Though, I don't do much undercover work, so I guess my acting classes never paid off." Jiyong laughed and Seunghyun patted himself on the back for not telling him about the whole case. "What about you? How did you become a..." Seunghyun started to ask but stopped when he couldn't think of the right word to use.
