Ever since our pinkie promise me and Dino have grown closer. I spend more time at work as I'd rather be there than try and make up an excuse of why I don't want to fifth wheel Mingyu, Wonwoo, Seokmin and Yuqi. Even though the others think that I'm being overworked and called into work too often, I enjoy it more than ever.

"Hey y/n manage the till your mate is here again" Dino says and takes a step back for me to take the next order.

Sana the cafe regular walks up and orders her drink, "how you been doing?" she casually remarks. Like usual she was stunning as ever.

"Not too bad these days, life is treating me well, how about you?" I ask back, after my honest answer. It felt good to actually say how I felt as the past few days I had spent them lying on why I couldn't hang out with the group or excusing myself to get to work.

"You know that new regular I think I'm going to ask him on a date, he's so cool and he's an artist" Sana squeals with excitement. I pass her the drink and tell her good luck as she sits at the table that the new regular Jackson Wang is at.

"Yo Dino check this out" I beckon as we silently watch the two interact.

As we both stare intensely at the scene before us Dino unconsciously leans towards me so close that I can hear his rapid breaths.

"I bet you an ice cream that she fails" I say to him.

"Oh you're so on" he says absent mindedly as the scene captivates him.

We watched a little more until we see Sana grin and slightly jumping out of her seat, I guess I've lost the bet then. Dino turns around to face me and gives a grimace.

"It's time to put the money where your mouth is" he grins while cocking his head to the side with a goofy face. I guess I'll have to cough up sooner than later as Dino wasn't going to let a free ice cream go. It reminded me of the time Seungcheol wouldn't let go of a promise for free meat years ago.

"Okay you name when and where" I say as I'll just go along with whatever he wants.

"Okay, that restaurant on Gose Street tomorrow night" he said confidently with eye contact that could cut paper.

"As if we are going to a restaurant, they don't even do ice cream" I respond and smile at his cheek.

"They do sorbet, that's good enough plus it would be nice to have dinner together" he says while getting back to our duties of cleaning.

I wipe down the counter in thought and consider the plan. While I do this Dino speaks again.

"Will you go on a date with me?"
