— First Date, Kind Of —

It has been around a month since Eunlee has gotten to know Seungcheol, and she thinks that he's a really caring person. Well, not only caring but also unexpectedly adorable and dorky as well. He's also really mature too, in her eyes, but there's an unexpected softness in him. Which she was definitely not wrong.

Seungcheol often talks about his roommates that he currently lives with, around 12 of them - including him, makes 13 of them in the house.

Eunlee couldn't believe it when she heard it because she can barely stand being in the same house as her brother. The boys weren't even related to each other, yet they still manage to live together in one house It was amazing and Eunlee envied them a little.

"I feel extremely lazy to come to the gym tomorrow, honestly," Eunlee confessed to Seungcheol.

"Well, you don't have to come tomorrow," Seungcheol said. "Rest tomorrow and come the day after."

"But will you be okay tomorrow?" Eunlee aksed Seungcheol in worry. "I mean, I know you'll be okay, but I don't want you to be alone. It's lonely being alone at the gym."

"Aw, you care about me," Seungcheol said with a smile and laughed.

"Of course I do," Eunlee replied and hit him lightly. "I wouldn't want someone like you to be lonely. But then, you have 12 other boys at home. I'm sure you can invite one of them to the gym with you."

"Actually, I was planning on not coming to the gym tomorrow," Seungcheol confessed as well.

"Oh, where are you going tomorrow?" Eunlee asked in surprised. He never missed a day of gym. So, why tomorrow? Why didn't he told her earlier?

"Well, I was wondering if you would like to hang out with me, somewhere outside of this gym," Seungcheol explained himself. "Cause we've been meeting each other in the gym and seeing each other in sweat and all. But don't get me wrong, you look perfectly fine the way you are now. I mean-"

"Are you asking me out on a date, Choi Seungcheol?" Eunlee asked with a slight hint of smile.

Seungcheol sighs and nods his head in defeat. "Yes, Will you go on a date with lee, Lee Eunlee?"

And just like that, Eunlee was going on a date with the guy that saved her from some creep at the gym. She would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous, but her brother was there to comfort her.

"Do you think this is okay?" Eunlee asked her brother as she showed her brother her evening gown since Seungcheol said that they were going to a restaurant.

"Eunlee, I might be fashionable but I'm not the best when it comes to girl outfits," Eunlee's brother, Eunchan said as he collapsed onto her bed. "Why don't you ask your best friend."

"She's on a date with her own boyfriend, I don't want to interrupt her," Eunlee replied, making Eunchan shrug.

"You look fat and fleshy~" Eunchan joked, making Eunlee frown.

"Seriously? I've been working out more often," Eunlee said in worry, taking her brother's comments seriously while scanning her body in the mirror.

"I'm just kidding~ jeez," Eunchan said with a laugh. "You look beautiful, okay? You're my little sister, aren't you? It's a genetic thing for us to look good," Eunchan said and checked himself in the same mirror as he stood beside me.

Eunlee pushed him lightly and shook my head at him before doing her hair. Eunchan could tell that his little sister was nervous. It wasn't her first date, but it felt like a first to her.

"Just be yourself and remember if he can't handle you at your worst, then he doesn't deserve the best of you. Understood?" Eunchan assured her, making her nod with a happy smile. "But don't do anything silly. Wouldn't want to scare the crap out of him with your stupidity and-"

My brother stopped when he realised that Eunlee was holding a pillow in my head.

"I'll stop. I'll stop," he said in defeat, making Eunlee nod with satisfaction on her face before placing the pillow back on her bed.

All of the sudden, the doorbell rang - making Eunlee dash towards the door to see Seungcheol in front of the door.

"Hey," Seungcheol greeted Eunlee with a smile, but it faded a little - making his face seem a little lost.
