Penthouse privelege

"I'm sorry ma'am, all the rooms have been booked for tonight, I can check with surrounding hote-"

"No it's okay, thanks for your help" Jisung said with a sigh as he limped away from the receptionist and Yeseul

"Give us a second" Yeseul said to the receptionist before walking towards Jisung

"Hey! Where are you gonna stay...let's look around the area and if not then you can come stay with m-"

"No...thanks for your help but its okay...don't trouble yourself-"

"Its not trouble, i want to help-"

"Why?! Im practically a stranger, stop helping me! You don't even know my fucking name" the boy whisper shouted trying to not get attention from the people in the hotel lobby

"Where are you going to sleep tonight?" She asked, her eyes watering seeing the boy in such distress

"I-I....I dont know but I'll figure it ou-"

"See? Just let me help you please! I know it can be scary to trust someone given everything you've probably gone through, i know what its like...just please trust me, i need to make sure you're safe" She said pleading with her eyes and the boy eventually nodded. She sighed with relief before approaching the receptionist once again before he grabbed her wrist, halting her movements and she looked back at him.

"Jisung" he said, looking at her confused face with his, now more relaxed, soft eyes

"My name is Jisung"'he said once again and she smiled at him, placing a hand over his before giving it a reassuring squeeze. He limped away from her to go rest on the lounge chairs. She proceeded to walk over to the receptionist, trying to get her to look at free rooms at other hotels but none could be found

"There's one more hotel i could try but its nea-"

"Yeseul?" A voice asked behind her and she turned to see Jaemin approaching her while taking off his black trench coat, revealing an uncreased navy suit underneath, fitting his body extremely well

"Hi, please send this to dry cleaning if you can" he said folding his coat before passing it to the receptionist to how bowed to him

"What are you doing here?" He asked with a smile before his eyes landed on the red mark on her cheek

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" He asked, reaching up to touch her cheek but she flinched and moved her face away from his reach

"I was just..looking for a room for my friend but seems like everything is booked out" she said, bowing towards him and he turned to the receptionist

"Are you sure there's no more free rooms?" He asked

"Yes sir, all rooms are booked up except for the private suites but they're all reserved in your grandfather's name for VIP customers"

"That's no problem, they'll have that room please" he said

"But sir-"

"Do as I say, I'll talk to my grandfather" he said and the receptionist bowed before typing away on her computer

"Here is your keycard for suite number 2 ma'am, have a wonderful stay, room service charge does not apply to our-"

"Put it on my bill, anything they ask for" Jaemin said

"Yes sir" the receptionist bowed with a smile

"I...don't know what to say..." she said, looking at the keycards in his hand as he passed it to her

"Get some dinner before you slee-" he was cut off by a low grunt as she had planted her body onto his for a bone crushing hug, he wad taken back, his heart could be felt pounding inside his chest, even she could feel it.

"Thank you" she said into his ear and he placed his hands onto her waist, steadying her as she let go of him

"No worries, you know where I am...if you ever need anything" he said with a soft voice before bowing to her and walking towards the elevator

"Can you walk without limping?" She asked Jisung as she approached him, helping him stand from the lounge chair and onto his feet

"It's definitely sprained" she said, seeing him wince from the pain of shifting his body weight onto his foot

"Let's just go up to the rooms, let me see if i can get a doctor to come in and check it out" she said

"But they're so expe-"

"Just don't worry about all of that okay, leave it to me" She said, even though in her mind she was hoping that she could ultimately leave to Jaemin who was more than happy to be generous with his connections and money, yet she didn't want him to feel used.

The pair approached their suite from the elevator and she did everything she could to make the room feel more comfortable for him.

"Here, lift your leg up a bit" she said as she took the second pillow and placed it under his leg, elevating it.

"That better?" She asked and he nodded

She walked into the bathroom and wet a soft face cloth before waking back to him, cleaning up the dried blood stains from his face, trying her hardest not to hurt him more. A knock on the door was heard and she quickly went to open it, revealing the hotel worker, Mark.

"Oh hi" she said

"Hi, I don't think you remember me" he said with a smile and she nodded slowly

"Well, Jaemin told me to give you this along with the dinner menus, he said to order freely what you want, you won't be charged for it" Mark said and she nodded, thanking him.

She took the bag of ice that Jaemin had ordered for her a placed it on Jisung's eye area, resulting in him shuddering

"It looks bad" she said, more to herself as she wiped away the blood from his nose, revealing a purple bruise on it

"Hey...wait here for a bit and scan through the menu to see what you want for dinner, I'm gonna try get a doctor to check up on you" she said and Jisung nodded, trying not to give her his 'stop helping me' speech for the nth time.

She walked out of the room with her keycard, seeing mark in the hallway still, serving to another room as she pressed the elevator door.

She struggled to find the button that goes up to Jaemin's room and her question was soon answered

"Need help?" Mark chimed as he approached the elevator with his trays

"Uh...how do I go to Jaemin's room?" She asked with a sheepish smile and he smiled back

"Uh you can't unless he gave you his room key card" he said and she sighed, slowly nodding her head, cursing herself for not saving his damn number

"I can...key you in" he said and her eyes subconsciously lit up and mark couldn't help but smile

"Thank you so much! I seriously owe you one" she said gratefully and he nodded, scanning another keycard from his pocket as the elevator went upwards.

"Don't worry about it"
