• Because I Like You • (Woohyun Fanfic)

• +Chapter 44 •

My eyes felt sore after a long, exhausting day of work. The soles of my feet were aching and I couldn't wait to just dive into my bed and watch countless number of dramas with back to back episodes.

I reach to my apartment door as I fiddle with the number of shopping bags I had in each hand as I release a long sigh in frustration. My eyebrows were tightly kntted together as I attempted to juggle with the bags so that I was able to reach for the pin code of my apartment.

Entering my pin, I hear the ordinary beep as I gave the handle a slight nudge so that the door widened. The apartment was identical to what it looked like 7 hours ago until I trotted to the kitchen counter, laying the numerous bags of groceries down.

My phone vibrated at that moment as I pulled it out of my back pocket, laying it flat on the kitchen counter.

Namcheese: pick you up at 7:30!

"Eh?" I question myself. The time was already 6:35 which meant that I had less than an hour to prepare myself. Woohyun was a random one with turning up on time. Sometimes he could make it early and sometimes he would just be awfully late.

Before I thought about anything else, I rushed to place everything away in the fridge and cupboards. Only once or twice a week I would stock up on my food and it would always be enough since I lived alone.

After a trip to the wardrobe, I had thrown on a black playsuit with black tights and burgundy coloured shoes. Woohyun never mentioned about a dress code for this trip out so it was 50% casual and 50% 'fancy'.

Namcheese: miss

Namcheese: I am here to escort you

Namcheese: outside, my dear

Me: on my way, my love

My heart fluttered just by his presence. Woohyun had only a couple of days before he flew to Japan for a showcase with Infinite.

I eagerly left the apartment building, noticing the familiar silhouette I had been wanting to see in weeks and days.

Woohyun stood there with his hands tucked in his pockets, wearing a tuxedo. My eyes widen as I walk through the automatic doors; not letting my eyes wander anywhere else.

"Hi," Woohyun forms a thin line with his lips as he breaks into a grin.

"What is the occasion?" I throw my head back laughing.

"Just a night out before I leave again. Get into the car and I'll drive you. It's cold," Woohyun shivers as he beckons me towards his car.

"You look really good." I blurt as I admire his clothes.

"You look really beautiful, " Woohyun replied.

"Okay this conversation is getting too fluffy," I dismiss.

The two of us dived into the car, rubbing our hands together in front of the car's warm air.

"Where are we off to?" I question.

"Out for a meal to this restaurant," Woohyun replies without losing focus on the road.

"Oh," I mumble as I begin to fiddle with the radio.

"How was work, Ailes?" Woohyun asked as he used his free hand to play with the ends of my hair.

"I was exhausted..And I still am. How about you?"
