What Hansol had said puzzled me even as I sat at home after the end of the tour. He was supposed to visit to begin the collab with me around 11:30.

He arrived on the dot with a pleasant smile and kind eyes wearing a plain white t- shirt and black shorts, a pair of classic vans.

I ushered him inside from the hallway of the apartment building and lead him to the living room so we could relax for a little while before hand.

On the topic of our project he began to talk about a few nsfw ideas,"If you're comfortable with it... that is." He added, scratching the back of his neck.

"I like the idea!" I nodded. Afterall, it was just a dance.

He lit up and smiled,"Im glad!"

After 20 minutes of chatting we went out to the patio to begin working. He seemed to be just warming up until I noticed he was warming up to choreography from my group.

"Oh how cute!" I teased,"We've got a little fan boy?"

"I could say the same." He smirked,"I've seen your predebut social media. Dont act like you weren't a Yano stan." Hansol teased.

My cheeks heated up slightly as I began to pout "Oh shut up."

After warming up we got down to business, thinking of possible choreography to the song we had chosen previously over text.

Things were working out very well and smoothly. Where one of us was stumped, the other had plenty of good ideas to suggest and we were able to efficiently practice the first part of the song by the time the sun was falling beneath the trees.

The dance itself was quite steamy and I became bashful three or four times, giggling awkardly. If one of us smiled awkwardly, the other would die of laughter which made it impossible to fluently make it through the first half for a little while.

At one point he had to roll his hips forward and stop just before pressing against me. However, this didn't work as planned during our last practice of the night due to me moving very slightly. I nearly jumped out of my skin as I felt him pressed against my back, so short that his stomach pressed against the middle of my back. Noticing my panic he stopped there and stepped back a bit.

"Shit sorry!" he cussed with a small cringe.

I had turned gingerly to face him and dismissed it entirely which may have been even more awkward than just taking the apology... Instead I had to get all supportive and say,"No no! Don't worry about it!" making it sound as if I enjoyed our encounter.

After a moment he spoke up again with a gentle voice,"I have enjoyed accompanying you, Jae."

Hearing the sweetness in his voice I melted and nearly forgot about what had happened replying with a genuine,"Awww! Of course! You can visit any time. Would you like to stay for dinner? It's getting late!"

He had agreed and followed me back inside where I turned on the lights and headed to the fridge to get us water.

Hansol sat down at the kitchen island and yawned softly, letting his head droop as I walked over and placed a glass in front of him.

"You seem tired." I mumbled softly before sipping  at my cup and setting it down," Would you like me to order something to have things done faster?"

He quietly shrugged and offered a smile,"Only if you want to."

With that being said I grabbed my phone and ushered for him to follow me into the living room where I dialed the number for pizza.

"You." I ordered," Here." I pointed to the couch.    

"You've memorized the phone number to the pizza place?" he teased, sprawling out, laying his head on the arm rest.

As they picked up I just sat down and stuck my tongue out at him before ordering and lifted his legs over my lap to free up space.

Upon haning up I leaned back comfortably and looked over at Hansol, his eyes shutting slowly as he cuddled into a pillow like a small child.

"You can't fall asleep yet, silly." I said softly, tickling behind his knees just to annoy him.

He groaned in a complaining manner and kicked slightly out of reflex, earning me a small chuckle.

I didn't want him to think I was hitting on him but I also didn't want him driving home half asleep. I began thinking of ways to get him to stay over out of safty. I could tell he was out of it.

Hansol rubbed his eyes and sat up , propping himself up with his elbows and shaking his shaggy hair out of his eyes without any success.

Soon, he sat up completely and rubbed his eyes before looking at me , bags under his eyes.

"How long has it been since you slept?" I asked him, worried for his health.

"I've been sleeping poorly lately... I don't really know." he mumbled, making invisible shapes with his finger tip on my arm.

He had a genlte touch which only added to my sympathy for him," You could stay here tonight? I don't want you to get hurt driving back."

If it was at all possible, his eyes lit up slightly and he offered the faintest smile," I would like that." Hansol mumbled innocently.

I had turned on the TV to keep him awake and entertained until food got to my apartment and once I heard the knock, I lifted his legs and got up to recieve dinner before heading back to the living room and turning the dim lights up slightly, I didn't want to hurt his eyes by turning them up all of the way.

He mumbled a soft and genuine thank you as I set the box down on the coffee table. His cheeks were light pink and oddly complimented the purple-gray beneath his eyes
