Jaemin's tees

Over the period of just over a week, Yeseul and Jisung have managed to grow closer than ever. She hadn't heard from Jaemin since he left for New York, even though she had his number she didn't want to text him first, she didn't want to bother him in any way, she knew the past week was super important for his health. She saw his instagram post update yesterday night, staring at his jet black for a longer time than she thought she did, it suited him really well and she would be lying to herself if she said she didn't find it hot. Renjun had also fully dyed his hair blonde and Jeno who was usually a brunette was not a strong candy pink.

Mark also grew quite fond of Jisung, Yeseul especially. He was only a year or two older than her and she seemed to understand him perfectly. They were like best friends, clicking immediately. They went out together a lot when he wasn't working his shifts at the hotel, he usually did night shifts and she usually did night shifts at the club so they found that the morning times were perfect to meet for coffee or brunch.

Jaemin also found himself stalker her instagram stories a lot, seeing her with Mark and Jisung most of the time. A smile always landed on his face when he saw her doing something in his apartment wearing his tshirts. However a small part of him was very annoyed that she could do such fun stuff with mark, seeming to not spend a second thinking about him.

She was busy helping Jisung out of Jungwoo's car with his crutches when she heard a text message arrive on her phone.

Jeyi had been worried about Yeseul caring for the boy all on her own and offered Jisung to stay with Jungwoo for the time being. Jisung was still very confused on what to do about his housing situation but Yeseul was already planning to buy an apartment so they can both stay there with the money she had saved up over the past month or so, she just needed some more time.

As Jisung had finally been plopped down onto the living room sofa, she plopped down beside him, checking her phone.

Jaemin: hey, did you guys leave the hotel?

Just left this morning!
Mark said you were coming back
today

Jaemin: okay no prob
Jaemin: you wanna meet up for
that coffee you promised? :)

Sure thing :)

Jaemin: great!
Jaemin: I'll pick you up in ten

She grumbled as she stood to her feet and walked to the bedroom to get changed into something other than Jaemin's borrowed vetements tie-dye tshirt.

"You not gonna be cold?" Jeyi asked as Yeseul exited the room and she shrugged

"Hey can I...talk to you for a sec?" Jeyi asked, with a nervous smile on her face

"Yeah whats up?" Yeseul asked

"Actually, should do this outside" she said, quickly glancing at Jisung and Jungwoo who were playing video games on the tv. They both stepped outside to the lobby near the entrance of the apartment complex

"Uh...I don't know where to start" she said

"Take your time, I'm here for you" Yeseul said giving her a small pat on the back

"While you were staying at the hotel the last few nights, me and Jungwoo started to get super close with each other" she said and Yeseul nodded with a smile but it faltered quickly as she saw Jeyi's uncomfortable smile

"What happened?" She asked

"We were cuddling last night, like we did every other night and this time things got a bit heated and I kissed him"

"Oh"

"And he kissed me back, we made for ages— anyway...the next morning i woke up in his bed, we didn't do anything by the way. But i took a shower and when i tried to ask him about it he completely shut me down. So after a few hours i asked him what he felt about me" she trailed and Yeseul had a bad feeling about this story, almost as if she could sense Jeyi's sadness

"He said that he wasn't doing anything for it to last long term, or he wasn't looking for something serious. He said we should see other people if we both want a relationship" she sighed, crossing her arms over her chest

"Why? He kissed you back th-"

"He said he think I'm too immature for a relationship....is it true? Am I immature?" She asked, slightly scoffing and Yeseul sighed

"I wouldn't say you're immature, you're actually very responsible and mature for our age, you're considerate and understanding. I can't speak for Jungwoo but i think he just meant that you're too young for him" She suggested and Jeyi looked at her confused

"Like you're still 21, he's about 24 nearly 25. You're in college and he's settling down at work. He probably just wants you to experience the things you're meant to experience at this age. I don't think he's saying it to be condescending, Jungwoo isn't like that... if it helps in any way, try to act mature about the situation and talk to him naturally like you both used to, maybe this way he can see you as more mature and he might change his mind as time goes on" she suggested and Jeyi nodded with a smile, hugging her loosely before letting go

"You're very good with your words you know that?" Jeyi asked making her chuckle

"Oh damn" Jeyi said, her eyes travelling past Yeseul, seeing the boy step out of the newest tesla model.

"Okay repeat after me, I'm the baddest bitch alive and every man is under my control, even the hottest ones"

"I'm the baddest bitch alive and every man is under my control, even the hottest ones..?" Yeseul repeated as she saw Jeyi leave her side and run back into the lobby

"Yeseul" a honey like voice said behind her, immediately having an effect on her face, a smile being planted on her lips widely. And now she finally understood what Jeyi was making her manifest when she turned around to see him.

"Lord have mercy" she breathed out under her breath as she looked as his business casual attire, a grey two piece suit with a white loose tee inside and a branded celine cross body strap bag slung around his torso.

"You look hot" she said, not even letting the words filter in the brain, her mouth had no speed bump today. It wad weird for him to hear her compliment him physically when she was fully sober, at-least he hoped she was.

"Thank you, you look way better though" he said with a wink and it was only now that she realised what she had said, a burning red flushing her cheeks

"I missed you...surprisingly" she said lowly, biting the bottom of her lip, hoping that this wouldn't make things immensely awkward between them but she mentally face palmed when she saw him such in some air and look anywhere but her. She let out a sigh and decided to drop her tense shoulders. It was obvious that he was a flirt, he didn't actually mean anything he was saying right now, he flattered people.

"Should we get going?" He asked but he received no response from the girl as she looked deep in thought and he sighed lightly, taking a bold step towards her, enveloping her in a hug, allowing his arms to encase her petite body

"I missed you too princess" he said, planting a small kiss onto the side of her head. She couldn't even stop the infectious smile from spreading across her face, it was just the unfortunate effect he had on her.
