"Bye" Holly waves from her taxi. I wave back until the car is out of sighs at go back into my apartment building and up to my flat.

"I better get changed" I say thinking outloud.

Walking over to my closet I notice how much of a mess my house is. Papers, files and sticky notes literally line my floor as if they were a second carpet.

That's  not something I need to worry about though, he wants to see me. So he can see the mess that comes aong with me.
I pick out a nice dress, nothing to casual, but not too formal either. Something to suit the mood and the company.

Do I have drinks though? Thats and the reason we're staying here. I walk cautiously over to my fridge and peek inside. Shit.

The fridge is empty. Litterally. There is no food at all. Or drinks, or even water.
Panic begins to set in and I run my hand through my hair.

Ok calm down- one thing at a time. I'll get myself looking half decent and do my hair, and then I'll sort out the drinks.

After spending way to long trying to do my weird post-concert hair out the door bell rings.
I don't expect jimin to look much better, he's been preforming the whole day.
I walk over to the door and unlock it.

He'll probably have a little bit of greasy hair and some- holy mother of god he looks amazing what the fuck.

"Hey Y/N" Jimin says as he leans against the doorway.

"Hey-Did you find the address ok? How did you get in?" I say slightly confused.

"I asked Yoongi earlier to explain the location and he ended up telling me the passcode for the flat as well," he says rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly, "I hope that's ok"

"That's fine, it gave me some time to prepare myself I guess, the thing is we've got a problem"

"A problem? How big?"
"Well I know I invited you over for drinks but I realised I don't have any" I say laughing nervously. He smiles and shakes his head.

"It's fine we'll just go to the convenience store and get some soju- wait we're not in Korea they don't have that-we can get some wine if you'd like" he says looking at me sweetly.

"We don't have to get wine, we'll just get what you'd like to have, you're the guest" I say smiling.

-

"So how did you find the show?" He says as we walk to the store.
I think for a second. I don't want to seem to eager, but I don't want to sound disinterested.

"I really liked it, I'm pretty tired from jumping to be honest" I say laughing.
Jimin smiles and plays with the zipper on his jumper.
"Did you like my solo?" He says raising his eyebrows.
"It was amazing, it was literally breathtaking, I was meant to tell you earlier but it slipped my mind"
"You're gonna make me fangirl" Jimin says mimics my earlier statement covering his cheeks. I hit his arm playfully and we continue- being enveloped in an awkward silence.

"Hey nice jumper- my friends got one just like this" I blurt out.
"He's got good style, and a good pay check as well- this wasn't cheap" he smiles back at me.

"Yeah he is pretty loaded- he's my manager basically but he's chill" I shrug.

"So how is work going?"
"It's going well, there's talk of one of the seniors leaving so I might be promoted"

"To a senior? You don't seem old" Jimin says confused.
I look at him and smile, it's pretty obvious he hasn't got experience in a workplace environment.

"I wouldn't be a senior, my boss would probably get promoted, leaving his space open"
"That would be good for you, I know how hard you've worked"
I blush slightly, I don't usually expect most comments, but comments about my work life and the effort I put in always make me smile.

We arrive at the store and get some drinks. Jimin graciously offers to pay but I tell him not too.

We leave the store and make out way back to my flat, almost in silence. Peaceful.

We arrive back at the flat and I go to get some glasses.
Jimin follows me into the kitchen and grabs a menu from the front of the fridge.
"You want some?" He says showing me the menu.
"Sure, there's some more if you fancy something else"
He nods and rummages through the menu until he finds a pizza menu.
"What topping?" He says dialling the number.
"Supprise me" I say pouring some wine into a glass.
I down the glass as Jimin orders the food.
"Calm down there, that's for both of us" Jimin says laughing at me.

We talk for a while until the pizza arrives. "I'll pay for this" Jimin says pulling out his wallet.
"Ok" I say taking another sip.
"Your not even gonna offer?" He says pretending to be offended.
I roll my eyes and take another sip.

After a while I find myself quite drunk. I look over at Jimin who's watching TV looking half dead, and then at the empty bottle of wine and cans of beer.
"I have work tomorrow" I say rubbing my head annoyed.
"Shh- you're being too loud"  Jimin groans, an annoying laugh slipping from his lips after. I glare at him and take another sip from my glass.

"You know Namjoonie really likes you" Jimin says giggling.

I scoff and glare at him again.
"We're nearly out of alcohol deary" I say rubbing my head again.

"It's 1am anyway" he looks at his phone.

"Everyone's wondering why I'm still here" he says shoving his phone screen in my face.
I look at the messages from the other members and his manager asking what's happening and where he is.
I smile and close me eyes. This is nice, I have someone who I think is pretty nice at my home chilling with me. If only I didn't have to work tomorrow.

I hear Jimin move around me. I open my eyes and see him taking a swig out of the last can of beer.
I kick him making him nearly drop the can.

"You want some?"
"Please"
He hands me the can and I quickly drink the rest. He looks at me offendedly and sits bad pretending to sulk.

"You're lucky, you've got a day off tomorrow" I say laughing.
"It can be that har-"
"Don't say it if you haven't experienced it" I say interrupting him sternly,

"Working a job like mine with a bad hangover is literally like stepping on half melted lego bricks- without any ice for after" I say trying to empathise.
He sighs and closes his eyes.

"You're pretty  Y/- I thought you'd be a really snobby host for some reason"

"What made you think that" I say curiously.
"It's just- you don't usually talk about yourself so I assumed you were from some big estate or something and didn't like bragging" he says shrugging.
"You really do have a good imagination" I say laughing.

Jimin suddenly sits up and looks at me.
"What's up" I say confused.
"I nearly forgot something" he says rubbing his head.
"Oh god, what now" I say smiling.
"This" he says before launching himself at me.
He stops when his face is an inch away from mine. What a dramatic personality.

"I guess you'll have to come on a date with me then"

It's obvious what he meant by that. I may have been out of the game for a while but I'm not stupid.

"Are you going to kiss me or something?" I say staring into his eyes.
"In a minute, I'm looking at the most beautiful view in the world right now, so hold on tight for a moment"
