  After a few days you had finally kept that day with Choso out of your mind, it was no longer affecting how productive you were. You didn't assume anything from the feeling you felt - it was nothing special, you know? You would get nervous with anyone in that situation. You were sitting at your desk working on another assignment given to you by your boss. It wasn't particularly interesting and you felt your mind drift.


   You felt as if life had been going a lot better since that incident, considering you weren't as overworked. Your relationship with your roommate had gotten better and you now even had a new friend - Choso. The longer you thought about it, you realized you hadn't heard or seen from your crazed obsessive ex since that day. Maybe he thought he had killed you? Now that you were thinking about it, the events of that day replayed in your mind, ending with the thud you had heard before you were straddled in presumingly Chosos arms - did something happen?


   You lightly slapped your cheeks trying to focus your attention back at the task at hand - which worked for the most part. You finished your work about an hour later, and immediately once your mind wasn't preoccupied with work your thoughts drifted back to where they were before.. 'I'm overthinking it right? It was probably nothing, why must I overthink like this all the time..?'

—-----

   The pages of the calendar turned, and you watched as the green leaves now turned red and gold. You and Choso had grown closer during these past few months, you were now close friends. You had even gotten a promotion at work, you started taking better care of yourself, and even though your scar was still profoundly visible you were no longer in pain. Your phone rings while you're deep in thought - Choso.

Y/N

"Choso! What's up?"

Choso

"Are you busy?"

You looked at the analog clock from the comfort of your sofa, it was 6:32 PM and today was Friday. Besides, you always would clear your schedule for Choso.

Y/N

"Nah, I'm not busy.. Why? Are you planning something?"

Choso

"I'll be there soon ... wear something nice."

-

   The line beeped before you could respond, once his words sunk in your lips flipped up to form a grin, it had been a while since you had to dress nice for anything. 'What is he planning?' you got up almost instantly and headed to your closet, contemplating what to wear. You picked out a black dress, it fitted your body gracefully, accentuating your shape. It wasn't too fancy - it went a little above your knees, with a heart shaped neck and long sleeves. Despite how cheap it was, when you put it on anybody would think it was a designer dress. You looked elegant in it - it was undeniable. After choosing said outfit you quickly entered the bathroom and finished getting ready.


   Ding Dong, the small noise notified you of Chosos arrival, and you rushed to the door. As you hand reached for the doorknob, you felt your thoughts run rampant again, 'am I wearing too much? I'm not overdressed right?' Your thoughts were interrupted by the dinging of the bell, in these few months of getting closer to Choso, you had learned just how impatient he was. You opened the door, greeted by the tall athletic figure that was Choso. He was wearing black slacks along with a white collared shirt, the sleeves buttoned a little below his elbow leaving his forearms exposed. The shirt fitted him nicely, it was tight enough to show his muscular build but loose enough to be comfortable. His hair was half up and half down, with a few strands in his face. You were staring - but so was he.


   He cleared his throat after a moment of awkward silence and looked away. His head was tilted to the left, but his eyes fell back to you. He mumbled "You look nice." .. The comment left you flustered, before you muttered a weak "thank you, you too." your eyes drifted away and you continued "so.. Where are we going?" his hand met with the back of his neck and his gaze fully returned to yours "It's a surprise, lets go. If you're ready." He chuckled silently, you nodded and followed him to his car.


   You stared out the window, observing the passing cars. It hadn't been awkward with you and Choso recently, but for some reason the entire car ride was painfully silent. It felt like you were in middle school again. You felt his familiar gaze rest on you every opportunity he got, like he was making sure you were still there.


   His car rolled into a parking lot and you were torn from your thoughts once he took the key out of the car and broke the silence "We're here". You unbuckled your seatbelt and got out of the car, it took you a minute to realize you were standing in front of a restaurant - one that was infamous for being extremely expensive - that only celebrities and high class citizens ever attended. Your mouth gaped and you looked at Choso, "Are we at the right place?" He looked back at you, smirking smugly "What? You think I can't afford it?" It was true - you had assumed he didn't make that much money despite seeing his lavish apartment. In your mind for the past few months he was a simple middle class accountant. You caught up with him as you started towards the building "You sure you're just an accountant?" you were teasing him - but his hesitance made you question yourself. He hummed and reluctantly replied "Mhm."


   The sky darkened and streetlights had started lighting up. By now you had ordered and ate, you tried to not order much - considering how much it would have been. His gaze throughout the night was glued to you, he was observing every detail. Pointing things out about your appearance - not in a negative way nor a positive way - it was neutral, things like "I've never seen that dress before." or "Do you have lip gloss on?" it was kind of nice, those little efforts you had assumed would go unnoticed. Though for some reason - your thoughts drifted again. You couldn't help but to feel curious when you were around him.


   "Choso?" - he hummed, his eyes were still observing your face as you called him "I'm just curious, where do you work.. Is there a specific agency?" Your tone was innocent, you were genuinely curious, regardless his eyes narrowed and he struggled to respond "I work for ..." there was a few seconds of silence in between his words "it's just.. A tax consultant office." Your suspicions grew - and he noticed the change in your expression so he spoke again "I'll tell you more about it later, I'd rather just enjoy this moment than talking about work.. You know?" you nodded, he was right. He just bought you an expensive dinner and all you wanted to do was ridicule him, you felt rather guilty.


   Time had passed and you were now getting back in his car, a few minutes into the drive he questioned "Would you like to come back to my place?" your head quickly snapped to look at him and you sucked on your teeth making a 'tsk' sound 'he really did all that just to try and get in bed with me? What a pervert.. God so much for nice-' your thoughts were interrupted by him clarifying with a chuckle "I don't mean anything sexual you know, I was planning on watching a scary movie or something, with Halloween coming up." His chuckle made you feel all more embarrassed, you couldn't lie to yourself, you wanted to spend more time with him and this was your opportunity to. You agreed to which he responded. "By the way, it's not my apartment. It's my actual home, I only stay in that apartment when I have work, is that okay? It's a half hour drive." your eyes widened and you looked out the window 'Another home? An expensive dinner - I mean that meal had to be around 400 dollars .. All this money from working at some tax consultant..?' suspicions racked your brain, and you started to feel slightly unsettled with the assumption that he was being dishonest.


"Yeah.. that's fine."
