It's Now or Never

Lucky

July 14
Monica wakes up shivering. She immediately reaches for the covers, and pull them over her and D.O.
"Good morning baby."
"Good morning Kyungsoo. Are you ready to go again?" Monica asks him referring to his silhouette in the cover.
Kyungsoo laughs, "I have to go to the bathroom." He gets out the bed and walk to the bathroom naked. Monica watches and thinks how can he be so shy and yet so confident at the same time. He goes into the bathroom, she puts her face in the pillow and kicks and silently screams. It wasn't a dream.
She looks up and he is watching her, smiling.
"Would you order room service please? I need to replenish my energy.
Monica nods still feeling embarrassed.
Room service arrives. Monica orders scramble eggs, toast, fruit, and orange juice.
Kyungsoo finishes in the bathroom and joins her.

They sit down to eat.
"How did you sleep?", he ask.
"I slept very well, she replied, and you?"
"Peacefully. What time is it?"
"It's 8:17", she tells him, looking at her phone.
"I have dance practice, for our new video at 10:00." He tells her as he takes out his phone and see a text from Kai telling him not to be late.
"They will be leaving for rehearsal in an hour. If I leave now, I can make it on time to the house", he says thinking out loud.
Monica is watching him put on his shoes and checking to see if he has all his belongings.
Kyungsoo takes her hand, "walk me to the door", he tells her.
"I'm going to be busy most of the day, but I'm all yours tonight. Anything you want to do."
"Anything?" Monica ask.
"Yes, anything", Kyungsoo replies. "I'm all yours."
He kisses Monica and tell her that he will call her later to set plans.

D.O. arrives at the house.
The members are sitting in the living area, waiting on their rides. D.O. walk in the door and all eyes are upon him. He knows what's about to happen. He's seen Kai, Sehun, Baekhyun, and Chanyeol go through it. He was going to be teased all day for not coming back last night and he was ready for anything they threw at him.
He comes in and Kai say "At least he's shower, referring to D.O. wet hair. Hurry up and change, the car will be here any minute."
D.O. rides with Kai, Xuimin, Lay, and Chen. The car ride is quiet and uncomfortable. D.O. finally breaks the silence. "Whatever you're going to say or do, just do it."
"What do you mean?" Chen ask.
"You know what I mean."
"Honestly D.O., normally we would, but we know this isn't just fun for you, meaning you're invested," Kai tells him.
"We're happy for you," Lay states, and the others agree.
"Is everybody happy for me?" D.O. ask referring to Sehun.
"Yes, everyone is happy for you", Kai replies, knowing he is referring to Sehun.
Kai leans and and whispers to D.O. "Details later", and smiles.

Monica knew exactly what she wanted to do later on. She knew D.O. would be tired from practicing all day, so she wanted to pamper him. She got dressed and with her shopping list in hand, she had her driver take her to the market.
She decided to cook dinner. Monica has some cooking chops, and she was more than happy to show them off, given the right opportunity. She decided to make
Chowan Mushi, Baechu Geotjeori served with Bokbunja ju wine and for dessert Frozen Persimmon. She picked up all the ingredients she needed, along with some candles, and scented oils.

In a few hours Monica gets a call from D.O. He tells her he will be by around 7. Monica hops in the shower and then she decides to take a nap. No dozing off tonight.

EXO arrives back at the house and D.O. is the first one in the shower. When he gets out, Kai is waiting in their room. D.O. pulls out an overnight bag and start putting in his toiletries and a change of clothes.

"Are you going somewhere?" Kai ask.
"Yes, I'm going to see Monica", and continues to pack his bag.
"What's with the bag?"
"Just in case I need it. I really could have used it this morning."
Kai notices that D.O. is throwing his things in the bag, not neatly as he usually do.
"Are you in a rush?" Kai ask
"I am." D.O. starting to feel annoyed, "Why all the questions?"
"I've just never seen you like this. It's... different. You wasn't like this when you were dating",
D.O. interrupts him, "I'm not dating her. I'm seeing Monica."
D.O. finish packing and leaves.

D.O. arrives at Monica's and is meet at the door with the aroma of food. It smells good he thought and knocked on the door. Monica opens the door and seeing Kyungsoo, has the brightest smile on her face. She kisses him and notice the bag he is holding
"You moving in?"
"Something like that. I brought a few items and a change of clothing just in case."
"Just in case what?"
"What are you cooking? He ask, changing the subject.
"You will find out in a few." She pours him a glass of the Bokbunja ju wine.
"How was practice?"
"It went well, but I don't want to talk about work. When I'm with you, we are the only two that exist." He walks over to her and feels her hair as he presses his lips to hers.

"Dinner was delicious!"
"Thanks, but I'm not done."
Kyungsoo walks into the bedroom after Monica. She has candles lit, and soft music playing.
Monica takes off his shirt and instructs him to take off his shoes.
"I know you're been dancing all day and your muscle are probably tight, so I'm going to give you a message. Kyungsoo lays down on the bed and Monica gets a bottle of warming oil and starts to rub his back.
"Just what I needed."
Her hands make it to his lower back and he moans. She is starting to get turned on. Her hands now further down, touching the top of his butt. Kyungsoo doesn't respond and she hears snoring. She couldn't believe it, but she understood. She watched him and thought how beautiful he is. She moved his hair and kissed him. She pulled the covers over him, blew out the candles, and cut off the music. She didn't want to disturb him. So she grabbed an extra blanket from the closet and went in the living room to lay on the couch. She poured herself another glass of wine and turned on the TV with no volume.

A few hours later. "Monica, Monica, what are you doing out here? D.O. asked, standing there with the blanket wrapped around him. Come to bed."
He sat in the bed and watched her take off her clothes and put on a slip with no panties. She gets into bed with him. "Are you sleeping in your jeans?"
He looks at her with those deep, chocolate piercing eyes and holds up the blanket , he's naked.
"I want you to sit on me", he tells her and she obeys.
