WITH YOU | KSJ

EIGHT

I can't help but widen my eyes at him even more, taking a few steps back, processing the person in front of me and who he really was.

"fuck me"..I whisper.

He giggles lightly and makes his was towards me again, not keeping an appropriate distance between us whatsoever.

"Did you really not know it was me? Or have you been stringing me along like this all day on purpose? "

I gulp as he comes even closer.

"you've always been good at keeping me distracted anyway-"

I don't let him finish the rest of his sentence as I push him off me and run out of his office and into the nearest copy machine room.

I can hear my heart pounding in my ears.

As if this day couldn't get even more complicated, I needed a second from  all the chaos, from him.

JIN POV

"wait!"

She shoves me off her and runs out, not saying anything.

"Ms. Bae wait-" , I sigh.

I try to call out to her but she'd left my sight in the blink of an eye.

She's still as breath taking as I remember.

I really hope I wasn't coming off too aggressive or too perverted, but I think I may have done just that.

I haven't stepped foot in that bar since that night. I had decided that next day to sell all rights to my co owner because of what Ms. Bae had to me then.. and how it made me feel when she did.

Her personality is less early 20's and more early 30's now and it's honestly adorable, so I guess acting like a confident douche bag like my friends said would work but she's not like every other girl. have to apologize.

I almost couldn't recognize her. Her hair isn't as long anymore and her smile lines are more visible, making her even prettier.

I'd been looking for a job until I came across this job and their offer. I was eventually asked to come in for an interview, but it was then that I first saw her again, smiling while talking to the receptionist. It was like seeing her for the first time all over again.

I'd told the higher ups I would think about the offer but immediately contacted them, accepting it right after seeing her.

I thought of all the ways to approach her without it being weird, from just introducing myself to wearing the same cheap cologne I wore that night to see if she could recognized it but luck stroked me out on my first day when she was the first person I bump into, well her car door bumping into mine, but that's besides the point.

I need to find her and apologize. I'm such an idiot.

I quickly turn to leave my office when the the swinging of the glass door hits me directly in the face, making me jump back at the force.

"HEY HYUNGGG"

The person walks past me and throws himself on my office couch as if he owned the place.

"What are you doing here? I'm in the middle of something", I moan, rubbing my forehead from the withering pain.

"Is that how you talk to your bestest friend forever when he's finally back from Paris, aka HALF WAY across the world!"

"You're right.. Welcome back. How was paris? Did you and your girlfriend have a nice time? That's good to hear.. okay now OUT" , I point towards the door.

He pouts.

"what's got you in such a bad mood? Weren't you going on and on about how excited you were to see that girl again?"

I roll my eyes, "her name is Seori, and I WAS but she didn't remember me but it was when I finally fessed up and told her , she ran off.

Five seconds of silence goes by when he suddenly bursts out laughing, pointing at me.

"That's just too funny" , he says , trying to catch his breath. "Well did you do what I told you to?"

"You mean act like a total pervert? Yeah I don't think that really worked. Then again, I was really myself with her, I don't know, it's like she let me be.

He jumps off his seat and comes over to me, holds my waist and brings me closer, "did you hold her close like you did that night? No way her feelings didn't come flooding back."

"Well I'm not as smooth you, Taehyung".

"Maybe shes gay now? Didn't you say she was all over you that night?"

The idea runs through my mind for about a second when I suddenly remember our kiss earlier, and how she kissed me back.

"Well by color of your cheeks, she definitely proved she wasn't", he smirks.

Annoyed, I get his hands off my shoulders, straightening my shirt and  
head towards my desk.

"So what should I do? Since your plan sucked."

"Hey! It usually works for me.... maybe you're the gay one", he gasps, sarcastically.

"OUT".

He laughs, "well if that didn't work maybe you should try getting her to tell you why she got up and left you that night without a single word.. tell me, why are you into this girl again?"

I pause. I often think about that night and how it ended. We had such great chemistry and we even slept together, but her leaving was unexpected. Maybe I scared her then, and maybe I'm doing the same now.

I slam my face flat down on the desk,  "I think she's scared of me", I say, muffled.

I hear taehyung giggle once again.

"I mean you are her boss now, maybe try not acting like one and invite her for lunch tomorrow?"

I look up, "that may be the smartest thing you've ever said to me".

He frowns.

"Okay then, I'll email her and ask her to lunch. Alright you can leave now, I actually have a job to do".

"Fine, but remember, she's seen you naked.", he smirks, walking backwards towards the door.

"Bye Taehyung".
