First | S. Eunseok

8

I triple check the address Eunseok gave me to make sure I didn't come to the wrong building. Front doors are locked, so I have to be buzzed in. I dialed for Eunseok, hoping he was awake, so he'd let me in. After the evening I had, I was still a bit paranoid. Thankfully, I heard Eunseok mumble some mumbo jumbo into the mic before I heard a buzzing sound. The door opened, and I made my way inside. I hop in the elevator and press Eunseoks floor.

This place looks fancy. Living in this kind of building in this area? Ridiculous. Rent has to be double what I pay.

The elevator dings, and I search for his door number. Luckily, there were only 2 apartments on that floor, so it wasn't hard to find at all. I knocked lightly, and moments later, I heard the door open. Eunseok stood there shirtless in boxers and some house slippers on. He looked groggy as if he had just woken up. He looked so cute with his bed head. "How was the shopping?" His voice was still hoarse from just waking up.

"We got everything." I assure him as I begin to take off my shoes. "I brought pj's." I hold up my tote bag that held my extra contents.

He smiles and wakes up a lot more. Suddenly, he brings me in for a hug. My face landed on his chest, my hands awkwardly flaired around in the air before I decided on his placing them on his back like a normal person, my heartbeat sped up but I'm not sure if he even noticed. He hummed as he swayed slightly. "You can go change if you want. The bathroom is over here." He points to a door that was a few feet away from us. My hands were released from his back, and I was free of his touch. I nodded and made my way over.

During my short walk, I take in the area around me. He had barely taken anything out of boxes. Most of them were stacked on top of each other in the living room. Some were on the ground open with a few things still inside. I knew he had lived here for over a month at this point, what was taking him so long. Why hadn't he asked his friends for help.

After changing into my oversized shirt and short shorts, I put some house slippers I brought on and headed back out of the bathroom. The apartment was quiet, I had no idea where anything was. "I'm in here." He called from the kitchen. I walk my way over, and a small smile creeps onto his face. "You're so cute." I began to blush, which was something I had gotten used to within these last few weeks. "Do you want anything? A water?" He asks.

I shake my head. "I'm OK, thank you." I lean on a wall. "I wanna go to bed."

"Your wish is my command, princess." He says saluting me. Suddenly, he's standing right in front of me. His arms wrap around me, and suddenly, my feet are off the ground.

"Put me down!" I yell while laughing in between. He makes his way to the end of a long hall.

"I will." He chuckles.

"Now Eunseok! I'm heavy!" You complain.

"You're not that heavy princess." What's with the new nickname? Was I just overthinking it, or was this gonna be a thing now?

He stops, and I'm gently lowered onto the edge of a bed. "Do you need help moving in?" I giggle, pointing to even more boxes stuffed in the corner.

"Yeah.." He trails. "Sorry about the mess, I really haven't had time."

"Why don't you make it a hangout or something? Invite all your friends and buy them pizza. Works like a charm."

He bops my nose, and I look over to him. "That's a great idea. You're the first person invited."

"But I don't wannnnaaaaa carry heavy thiiinggggsss." I whine jokingly. He chuckles and lays back onto his pillow.

"Too bad. You have to come." He informs me. "Now sleep it's been a long day for you."
