Namjoon's P.O.V.
"Foxy, you should go."

It's like I suggested that she strangled puppies. "I'm cleared. It's okay."

I'm home and well. She doesn't have to.
"You can't miss a SHINee practice."

"I know." Min didn't stop practicing, even here, but missing Enhyphen's and Le Sserafim's was enough.
"I'm in a totally different state of mind, I have to say."
I noticed. You're a lot quieter, and jumpier.
"It's not you. I'm far from worried. Mushu would tell on you. He'd sit on your feet again."

That's the giveaway! That damn cute thing. "Mu, I thought you could keep secrets dude!"
Not a single thought crossed his mind.

"I'll get my bag ready."
Thought I'd let her leave so easily? Not without a peck, she wasn't.
"Promise me you'll text me if you need anything."

"Promise." Seeing the time..
"You'd have time to shower if you'd like."

Music to her ears. "I'm SO in need of one. I'll be right back."

"Take your time, Kitten." Take your time.

Mina's P.O.V.
"Joonie? My brilliant, kind and thoughtful partner?"

His chuckle rang as I made my way into the living room. "Yes my talented, artistic and sweet lady? What can I do for you?"

I took a seat next to him. Here it goes.
"I have a favour to ask."

"I don't do favors."
What? Why not?
"A favor means you'd owe me for it. As if I'd ask for anything in return."

I could kiss him right now.
"Well.. Could you, would you accompany me for a fitting?"
I motioned at my head's right side.
"Please?"

A soft smile. It's the most reassuring thing.. "Sure, when is it?"
No questions about when I decided to get one? Why I changed my mind?

I took a look at my watch.
"In an hour?"

"Already?" He rose to his feet so fast it made me jump.
"I thought you'd say next week or something."

I should've asked earlier. I'm aware.
"I thought I could do it on my own, but I'd rather have you with me. If you don't mind."

"Of course I'll come!"
A kiss on my cheek.
"I know you can do it alone, but if you'd rather have me there, that's where I'll be."

I pulled him in to peck his lips.
"You get ten times more attractive when you say things like that."

"I could take my shirt off and double that."
That smirk! Urgh. I loved it so much.

"We can do that after my dance practice. Test your theory. What do you think?"

"That's an amazing idea, Foxy."

Don't look so nervous..
"It's silicone in your ears, nothing major. You got a syringe in your eardrum. It can't be worse."

A nod. "Clearly, you haven't met the fear of your eardrums ripping up."
And making me lose the little to no hearing I have left in that ear now. Stupid ear infection, stupid genetics.

"That's true. I didn't see it that way."
I looked at his hands, and they organically wrapped themselves around the one I was resting on my seat.
"Take a deep breath and keep your eyes on me. I won't lie to you. It will be uncomfortable."
I appreciated the warning.
"I didn't think you'd get this type. It looks like my earpieces for work."

Because it was the same principle.
"I'll get music straight into them now. I'm picking up a more standard pair for everyday use today. The ones getting molded are for performances and filming. The dancer I know from Parastar has one like that too and she finds it makes a huge difference."
