(Istg this song is so Jay coded.)

Jay knew Leah would never accept such a gift from him. Bookmarks, food and tickets were different from clothes or any tangible item. But he wasn't going to stop with this.

Since they had stepped into the store, he'd secretly been keeping an eye on her. On what might attract her. He wouldn't pester her to pick something for herself like Jungwon and Sunoo did.

Though Sunoo's pestering was kind of...off putting for him. He was about to intervene because she looked quite stiff and uncomfortable in that position. But her demeanor took a 180° turn and she went along with Sunoo. Causing Jay to turn back on his heel and leave.

He'd seen her looking through the butterfly top. But he knew it was just curiosity because it wasn't her style. Until, he saw her perk up and swiftly make her way to another aisle. He'd followed her around the corner. He'd seen the way her eyes shined when she looked at all the dresses. And he'd also seen her sigh at the price tag.

This was the one she wanted. She hadn't looked at any price tag before this one. She was hoping. And it was enough for Jay to make his way over to the dresses. And he had to admit she had an eye for fashion. Because the dresses were simply beautiful. He was quite disappointed but not surprised when she made him promise her not to buy them. He would keep his promise all right.

Now he was waiting outside the changing room. His anticipation building up with each second. And then the door creaked open. The world stopped around him. His eyes blurred everything around him as they zeroed in on her figure.

The color complimented her skin tone and made her look radiant. The dress reached till her mid thighs. It hugged her chest so well and the fluffy skirt made her look like a doll. The halter neck revealed her collar bones. Her hair brushed her cascaded down her shoulders like soft seaweed. He tried keeping his eyes from going to the legs but he failed. He unknowingly trailed his eyes down to her long legs. The black wedge heels complimented the dress so well. A wild image came to his mind. He wanted those legs to be wrapped around him. If he gripped just hard enough, he could leave his hand prints on her thighs. His mark on her would top the whole attire.

"Uh Jay?" She asked skeptically. Shit. He'd been caught staring. He cleared his throat.

"Uh yes. This is nice. Good." He said.

"I know right? It's so pretty!" She did a little twirl and Jay caught himself before he swooped her in his arms again.

"I'll try the next one." She disappeared into the stall again.

Leah tried on the next dress it was the ivory one with multi colored flowers. This one was a V neck with an A-line skirt that fell right below her knees. There were also long bows on each shoulder. There was no corset in this but the area of the stomach was a little see through. She stepped outside and waited for Jay's reaction.

And once again Jay's breath was caught in his lungs. She looked like an angel in that ivory dress. The deep v neck gave him a peak of her chest and he felt hot just by looking at it. Jay literally slapped himself for having such thoughts. Leah looked at him in alarm.

"Ah nothing, you look really pretty. Go on." He said and Leah shut the door again.

What was wrong with him? He had promised himself that he would protect her from unwanted attention from others but he was the one going berserk over a dress now. He needed to snap out of it. He waited and waited but this time she was taking a lot of time.

Inside the stall, Leah was panicking because the corset was tangled. She accidently tied the knots wrong and now it didn't sit well. It was taking a lot of time and she knew Jay must be worried now. And sure enough, she heard him.
