What Are We?

vi

"..I'll make love to you.. like you want me to.. and I'll hold you tight.."

"Yeoboseyo?" I answered still half asleep.

"Saab-ah are you ok?"

"Oh Hyejin-ah? Yeah I'm fine."

"I was worried about you. What happened last night? Is everything ok?"

Flashback of me dragging Jin in my apartment, taking off his shoes and.. I closed my eyes, touched my lips trying to figure out if it really happened. Did I really just get kissed by Jin albeit without him knowing it? Did all this actually happen?

"Saab, did you hear me?"

"Yeah I'm here. I'm fine it's just a small matter. Nothing to worry about. How about you? How was the date? I'm sorry I ditched you."

"No it was fine, actually it was good. I think I may have actually agreed to dating Junki."

"No way!" I'm wide awake now. "How? What happened?"

"Well after you left, we stayed and tried to finish everything we ordered, when suddenly Junki just confessed. He said if he didn't do it now he might not get a chance again. And I just thought the same thing so yeah, we're dating now!"

"Congrats! I'm happy for you!"

Inside, I hoped I can tell her about my first kiss too but I can't. And speaking of that I better check on him too.

"Anyway I just want to check up on you since it's your day off and won't see you today at work. I better get ready for work now. See you later."

We hang up and I hesitated opening my bedroom, scared of what I'll see. But I can't stay in my room forever so I quietly moved my freestanding wardrobe and slid my door open. I peeked at the couch but Jin was nowhere in sight. Did he leave already? Or did my drunk ass just dreamed all this since I saw him at the bar last night? No I definitely carried him on my back.

I stepped out of the room and stood over the couch. No trace of him at all. Then I saw the box by the shower door. See, it's there I wouldn't have put it in there if I didn't have to put my clothes on top of it to get changed in the shower. I only had to do that so I don't walk out of shower in just a towel since Jin is in my apartment.

Suddenly the shower door opened, a topless Jin in a towel came out, towel dried hair, looking even more flawless as last night if that's possible at all. I fell on the couch at this sight and he smirked at my clumsiness.

"What are you doing.. here?"

"You took me here. Last night?"

"Yeah but I mean what are you still doing here?"

"Oh.."

"No sorry.. I'm just startled. Why are you freaking naked?!" I finally got my bearings and back to my old self.

He laughed at my outburst "I need to go to work and I can't be in the same clothes as I was yesterday. So I needed to shower and asked my assistant to bring me new clothes and take my old clothes back." He walked towards the closet by the front door and pulled out a suit jacket, shirt and trousers in a hanger. And what looked like a toiletries bag.

"May I get dressed?"

I nodded.

Didn't take long until he went out of the shower room now dressed in a suit. He went back to the closet as if that's his personal wardrobe and pulled out a paper bag with his tie and socks. I won't be surprised if his shoes are neatly placed in the shoe rack.

He came closer to me and asked if he can sit next to me so he can put on his socks. I moved to give him space. I can smell my shampoo on him, coconut and vanilla. I just stared at him as he put on his socks and as he was putting on his tie I vividly recalled our.. my kiss and how he cupped my breast. I feel myself blushing and tore my eyes away from him. He stood up and checked his reflection on the tv as I just studied him from behind. He is tall, I have to crane my neck to see his full form. His hair looks soft to touch, and you can put any top on him and his shoulders will make it look like art. His legs just go on and on. He looked at me probably saw my reflection ogling him. He winked at me.

"Like what you see?"

"What?!"

"I see you've been ogling me since I came out of the shower." He's heading to the front door and sure enough his shoes are safely stowed in the shoe rack.

"Are you crazy?"

"Sorry I shouldn't annoy you since you helped me last night. Thank you, very much. Sincerely. That's why I'm doing you a favour too."

What does he mean?

"I told my assistant that we're dating."

"What?!"

"Bye jagi."

And he's out before I can even say another word.

How is that a favour? In what world of world wide handsome is that a favour? What do I do? Should I tell Ellie? No, she just got engaged and I don't want this thing on her lap.

Oh my god. What did I get myself into?
