Y/n POV

He's standing in front of me wearing his black button up shirt with a few undone. I'm noticing his arms now and they look really good in this shirt. I realise I'm taking forever to answer his question so I quickly decide to say yes as it is quite dark now and I don't want to walk home alone.

"Yeah sounds good to me." I smile to him and start to walk in the direction of my apartment.

"Yikes but my jacket looks better on me than you I'm afraid. So I don't know. I might change my mind." He smirks as he comes up to my side.

"Oh really? Excuse you Dylan!" I laugh as I hit his arm and push him gently. He stumbles a little but has a smirk on his face.

"So where do you live? I feel bad that you're gonna have to walk all the way back to your car." I look up at him.

"I actually walked to the restaurant too. I live in the building on Saint Mark Street. It's in this direction actually."

"Wait what?! I live in that building too!" We both stop walking and stare at each other.

"How come Misoa didn't say anything? She's been to your place right?" He says to me with a shocked expression.

"Yeah she was there two days ago! I have no idea why it never got mentioned!" I start laughing at the situation.

What are the actual chances?

We continue walking again and I see him run his hand through his hair. But then he sees me staring so I cover it up that I was looking around instead of at him. Although I notice that he's still looking at me with quick glances.

"Hey you got any other plans after this?" He casually asks me.

Is he hoping to do something together right now?

"Oh I was just going to keep rewatching The Office. I haven't found a new show at the moment that I wanna watch."

"Have you seen The OC?" He looks at me with excitement in his eyes.

"No I haven't. Why?"

"Nooo it's the best show! You gotta watch it. Promise me?" He's smiling at me as he nudges his arm against mine. I nudge his arm back in a playful way.

"What if I don't? What are you gonna do?" I tease.

"Well I know where you live now so you better sleep with one eye open." He teases back.

I blush but hopefully it's too dark for him too notice. We walk in silence for a few minutes and I notice how close we are next to each other. A stranger is walking towards us so I move out of the way for them but knock into the side of Dylan.

"God sorry. I keep doing that. I don't mean to." I use his arm to regain my balance and I can feel how big his muscles are. He wraps his other arm around me to help and we make eye contact again for a quick second.

His eyes are so close to mine. I breathe in and don't realise that I'm holding it until he pulls away first. I see him readjust his shirt and hair, then fidget with his necklace for a second.

"We're not far now." He mentions as he starts walking again.

Why didn't I pull away? He probably feels so uncomfortable now. God I just messed it up. We could have at least been friends or something but I just scared him off.

I catch up next to him and I see our building coming up ahead. We don't say anything until we get to the elevator inside. I press for level three while he presses for number five.

It's just us two in the elevator so I get a little nervous about what to talk about but thankfully he says something first.

"Hey I just realised we haven't exchanged numbers yet. If you wanted to, I don't mind." He looks over at me a little shyly waiting for my response.

"Oh yeah I'm happy to do that. Here." I give him my phone and he gives his to me. I put in my number and name then decide to take a profile picture. He noticed and begins to laugh at the facial expression I chose. He decides to do the same but it ends up looking really good instead.

I obviously don't mention that but god I can't get the thought of how good he looks out of my head.

The doors open on my level so I give his phone back.

"It was great meeting you Dylan and thanks for walking back with me."

"Oh it was no problem and yeah I had a lot of fun tonight with you." He smirks down at me so I gently hit his arm as I walk out and head to my apartment.

I hear the door close behind me and go up to the fifth floor. My head is all flustered from the entire night while I unlock my door.

I can't even begin to process what has happened tonight. Everyone was so nice to me, especially Dylan. I don't know, were those two moments in the restaurant and before when walking home actually something or just in my head?

I ponder this while getting ready for bed and realise I'm still wearing his jacket.

Oops

I first decide to look up The OC on my laptop before messaging him about his jacket. I notice that the show has some pretty good reviews so I might start it. I'm halfway through the first episode when my phone pings.

Dylan <3 : hey just thought I'd say goodnight since we are only like two floors away from each other right now.

I see the little love heart he put next to his name and I smile to myself. I type out my reply.

Me: hehe goodnight Dylan. I still have your jacket by the way and also the love heart you put with your name in my contacts was very smooth.

Dylan <3 : maybe just hold onto it for me and I knew you would like it ;) goodnight y/n.

He really is smooth.

I finish the episode but can't seem to stop smiling.

Tonight ended up being pretty great.

I turn the light off and fall asleep.
