joy's pov
walking to the kitchen i realize i haven't gone grocery shopping yet. my stomach growls as i rub it in a circular motion. "looks like i need to go grocery shopping", i say to myself. ugh i hate shopping...
i go to my room and change into black jeans, a grey top, a café brown trenchcoat with a black outlining and buttons, my black combat boots and a black infinity scarf. as you could probably tell i'm a big fan of black. i spray some bath&body works perfume and grab my wallet and phone. i grab my keys and right as i open the door i'm met with taehyung standing there staring at me, i jump in shock and let out a small surprised squeal.
"oh taehyung you scared me!", i say hitting the side of his arm in a playful tone, laughing a bit
"my bad, i was just seeing how you were and if you needed help to find your way to the grocery store.", he says with a rectangular smile. my eyebrows furrow in confusion. how did he know I needed to go grocery shopping? he must have noticed my expression when he quickly added
"cause you know you just moved in and all, probably still need to do some shopping." oh well that explains it.
"oh okay and that'd be nice thanks.", i say with a small smile and we walk together down the concrete stairs and to my car, he asks for my keys saying that he'll drive and i agree after all i'm not very good at following directions. he goes to the passenger's side and opens the door for me. i say a 'thank you' and he nods closing my door and going to the driver's side and getting inside. he locks the door which was strange but I don't pay much attention to it. he turns on the heater and starts the car.
the ride to the grocery took about 15 minutes and the whole time it was awkward silence with the exception of soft korean music playing in the background. i look out the window the whole time watching as drops of rain run down the tinted windows mentally having a race with two of the rain drops.
when we arrived to the store it was similar to a walmart or target, not a convenience store that i expected. taehyung unlocks his door and gets out i am confused but then i understand when he comes to my side and unlocks it, opening to door for me. i thank him and start walking to the store until i'm pulled back slightly by my arm in a rough manor.
"wait for me at least.", he says playfully although something about his tone sounded demanding and scary. i nod and we walk together to the automatic doors.
i grab a cart and start walking through the aisles of canned food thinking about what i should make for breakfast and also what i should make for dinner, taehyung following close behind. i should ask taehyung to join me, he did take his time to come and help me find this place. i would've been lost in a field or something. i stop walking and turn around to face him.
"taehyung, would you like to join me for dinner later on this afternoon?", i ask with a friendly tone. his eyes widen slightly and nods multiple times, his lips curling in a smile but no words come out. i smile
"great!", he smiles. what does he like to eat?
"hey tae, what do you like to eat?"
he looks at me and answers, "anything, as long as it's made by you." my eyes widen and my cheeks flush a warm pink colour. how can he say that with such a straight face?! is he joking? He's joking... right? i expect him to start laughing any second and tell me he's just kidding but he doesn't, he maintains his expression.
"o-okay, umm well h-how about jajangmyeon?", i ask trying to act like i wasn't fazed by what he just said but failing.
he smirks, "sure." I nod and turn back around and continue walking down the aisles exhaling, feeling embarrased.
i look for black bean paste and grab it once i find it. next I'll need vegetable oil, sugar, pork, noodles, cabbage, onion, potatoes, corn starch, soy sauce, and cucumber. once i get all those i grab some other things like a brownies mix, to make some as dessert, eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, white rice, and some snacks like popcorn, chips, and a couple other stuff.
i go to the cashier and bring my cart to the front, grabbing some bubblegum from the little shelves next to the cashier. he rings up all my things and tells me my total, i'm about to slide my card through the machine when taehyung pushes me to the side gently, "i'll pay.", he says grabbing his debit card from his wallet.
"no no they're my stuff i'll pay." i say and try to slide my card again only to be pushed aside softly. he slides his card and types his pin fast. i scoff feeling a bit annoyed. the cashier hands him his receipt and i start walking out pushing the annoyed feeling aside. i go to my car and wait for him since he has my keys and my things.
a few seconds later he comes out with the cart with a sour look on his face. he lifts the trunk and puts the bags in there then slams it shut making me flinch slightly. he opens my door and i get inside, thanking him lowly. he slams it mumbling a harsh 'your welcome' he walks to his side and shuts the door closed.
"you left me. yoy didn't wait for me.", he says, staring at me, well more like glaring, he starts the car and drives back to the apartments a little too over the limit for my taste. i start feeling guilty. i would've waited if i knew it cause him to be upset...
we arrive at the complex he opens my door and gets all the bags on his own, when i try to grab one he just gives me a look that says 'don't even' so i just stand there and wait until he's done and we walk to my door. i open it and open the door for him he walks in and puts all bags on my table. i close the door behind me and let out a small sigh.
"look, i'm sorry, it's just, i don't like people paying for me, it makes me feel uncomfortable. i'm sorry. let's just forget it and prepare dinner.", i apologize.
"it's okay, and sorry for making you feel uncomfortable, i just don't want you to pay when you're with me", he says. my cheeks start getting warm. he's so... sweet... my heart thumps whenever he says things like this for some reason. i wonder why?
"should we start preparing dinner then?", he interrupts my thoughts, smirking. my cheeks flush warm pink.
"oh uh right!"
