White pages fell from the air like snow as jeongin through his hands out in front him in a desperate attempt to grab the paper work, almost hitting another bookshelf as he fell to the ground to pick them up. He bit his lip in embarrassment as he hoped no one had seen. He cringed as he realized some one definitely had. Changbin. Who was now running over to help him.

"Omg innie, are you ok?" He asked. Jeongin shook his head yes, keeping his eyes on the floor as he continued to pick up the mess.
Changbin helped jeongin pick up the papers and bring it over to their managers little office in the back of the shop.

"Thanks binnie, I'm sorry I'm so clumsy I swear I'm not usually that bad." Jeongin said nervously. Changbin smiled.

"Oh no don't worry about it, but I actually got something to ask you if you got the time, of course."

"Yeah sure, binnie." Jeongin replied happily.

"Ok cool, well my friend needs a date for his Valentine's party tomorrow night, and I told him about you, so could I give you his address?"

Jeongins face fell for a moment. Oh, God you're such a dummy jeongin, I can't believe I thought binnie was going to ask me out, yeah right. He thought sadly before putting back his original smile.

"Yeah, I think I should have time tomorrow night, how cute is your friend?" Jeongin asked jokingly. Changbin laughed sheepishly.

"Uh, yeah he's a pretty good looking guy, y'know tan skin, dark haired." Changbin tried his best to explain but his friend wasn't exactly his type so he didn't really know how to put it. All he really thought whenever he thought of seungmin was his lifestyle. The immature druggy who didn't seem to take anything serious. That's sadly what always came to mind, but he knew deep down Minnies a good guy, maybe innie and him could be good for each other. Changbin thought hopefully. Jeongin could help seungmin be a better person and seungmin could help out jeongin with his living situation......or the lack their of. Seungmin was living too much while innie never got to live at all.

"Oh I guess that sounds pretty nice, sure." Jeongin agreed happily. He really liked changbin but when he really thought about it, he wasn't looking for a relationship for him, he really wanted someone who could help support his siblings. It's not like he wanted to be with someone for money......but it was important.

Changbin gave the younger his friends address, then let jeongin go home early so he could have time to get ready and plan out how to get a babysitter.

Jeongin walked into his small apartment, immediately rolling his eyes at the mess in the living room. The floor was completely covered in stuffed animals, Barbies and puzzle pieces.

"Ugh, girls I told you to pick up your mess." Jeongin scolded as the girls ran past him from the kitchen and onto the washed out gray sofa.

"Sorry, oppa." The two six year olds said in unison. Jeongin sighed as he bent over to pick up a couple of the half naked Barbies on the floor.

"Is dad awake yet?" Jeongin asked quietly. The girls shook their heads no. Jeongin let out another sigh but this time out of relief instead of annoyance.

"Well then you both better get this cleaned up before he does, I got to take a shower." Jeongin said before walking towards the hallway bathroom.

(...)

Jeongin stepped into the shower, turning it up to almost the hottest setting. He inhaled deeply, enjoying the relaxing steam created in the heat.

Hope this seungmin guy is cool, I mean obviously, binnie wouldn't set me up with some weirdo..........Oh no, what if he set me up cause he feels bad for me. Shit, that's probably exactly why he would do something so random. I guess it was just that obvious I wasn't doing anything for Valentine's Day, Jeongin thought to himself as he let out a huff of hot air.
Welp that's embarrassing....

Jeongin continued to scrub town his body, making sure not to miss a single inch of skin as he spread the soap along his lean frame. He shook his wet head as he cautiously stepped out of the shower. His relaxed expression immediately disappeared as he heard the girls screams from the living room.

"Oh, fuck." He muttered hastily as he through a towel around his waist and ran down the hall to the living room.

Ji-U!! Mun-ah!!! He shouted as he ran into the small living space. Ji-U was on the floor with her hand on her head, she started to cry as soon as Jeongin came into the room.

"O-oppa, Mun pushed me!" The little brunette whined. Jeongin let out the biggest sigh of relief he ever had before walking over to her, bending over to pick her up and put her back on the couch.

"Mun-ah what were you thinking? You scared me half to death!" The older scolded. "Now apologize, right now!"

"Uh, I'm....... sorry." She huffed as she folded her arms, making a sour face.

"What the fuck is up with the noise?!" A voice boomed from the kitchen behind jeongin. Oh God, great.

"Nothing dad, sorry one of the girls just fell off the couch, you can go back to sleep." Jeongin told his father, smiling in the hopes he'd listen.

"Why would I do that, I've been sleeping all day, what did you make for dinner?"

"I didn't get a chance to make anything yet....I was just taking a shower...." obviously you dip shit, do you not see the towel around my waist you fucking drunk. Jeongin thought bitterly. His father rolled his eyes.

"Let me guess, you forgot my drinks too?"

"Uh, you didn't ask me to pick any up?" Jeongin said slightly annoyed.

"Great, I'll fucking starve and I can't even ignore your annoying asses while I do, lovely." He huffed before covering his mouth to cough.
"Go get me a six pack." Jeongins father ordered before turning back to his room.
Jeongin sighed once more. Add that to the list, I guess. He thought regretfully as he looked back to the girls.

"Pack a couple of clothes and toys I'm sending you over to auntie Yuna's tomorrow."

"Yayy!!!" The girls cheered before hugging Jeongin's legs, he patted their heads. "Ok ok go on now." He told them before they ran off down the hall towards their room.
The elder did the same, heading for his own room and grabbing his phone to call his friend. Yuna was always generous with her time, especially for the girls so he wasn't to worried about her saying no. She answered.

"Hii, innie what's up?" She asked cheerfully. Jeongin smiled.

"I'm so glad you picked up yuna, listen I'm sorry for asking you again but-"

"You got a date and you need me to babysit the twins." She asked, smirking knowing she was right. Jeongin laughed nervously.

"Yep, but this time I think it might really work out, it's some guy binnie knows, so I think he might be cool." He said, hopefully.

"Ohh ok sounds good, when should I be over to pick up the girls?"

"Around ten am tomorrow, is that alright?"

"Yup! I'll be over no later, tell the girls I'm excited to see them, bye innie good luck."

Yeah..... hopefully I won't need it.
