she was intrigued by the city lights that lit up like stars in the dark sky. that's why she always went out so late, she slept during the day and woke up when the sun started setting. one could say she was a night owl.

it was just another late night in the city, she stood still while the people around her rushed home to escape the darkness. this was a new neighbourhood she decided to check out. the string lights that connected the buildings had lured her in. a bright coloured shop caught her eye and it was like it dragged her towards it. she found herself stood infront of the shop, but when she was just about to step inside, a black figure caught her attention. the young man was dressed in black from head to toe, aside from the pink and blue striped apron.

"what's a pretty girl like you doing out so late at night?" the man asked as he lit a cigarette.

"well," her eyes landed on a little name tag attached to the apron. "susan.. i was just about to get some icecream." she said and tilted her head towards the shop they were stood infront of.

'susan' chuckled before lightly exhaling the smoke. "the name's jungkook." he paused for a while, creating an awkward silence. "nice name, princess." he continued in a sarcastic tone.

"right." she rolled her eyes and headed into the icecream shop. jungkook put his cigarette out and went in after the girl.

"susan.. or was it jungkook?" the girl asked slightly annoyed.

"the latter one, dear." he said as he opened a packet of gum and offered the dark haired girl.

she stared at it for a while before shaking her head, "look, jungkook, i just want some icecream. care to help a girl out?"

he sighed, "you don't want to tell me your name and you don't want my gum, so why would i do susan's— i mean, my job and give you icecream?" jungkook had an annoyed look on his face as he chewed his gum.

"jesus, i didn't know i had to give my name out for icecream." she again, rolled her eyes and was about to head out of the shop before she heard the male groan from behind her. she turned around and gave the only person inside the shop a weird look, scrunching up her nose.

"ugh, wait." jungkook tilted his head back and went behind the counter with another groan. "what flavour do you want?" he said as he put on a hair net.

the girl let out a slight chuckle, "you have to wear a hair net? this is great."

the male frowned and crossed his arms, "do you want icecream or not?"

she shrugged and pointed towards the flavour she craved the most, "this one."

jungkook nodded and put a big scoop of icecream into a small box. "on the house, babe." he smirked as he took a small spoon and dug into her icecream, humming at how nice the cold treat tasted before handing it to her.

"..thanks." the girl stared at the hole in her icecream that the young man had created.

"see you later, babe." jungkook said in a careless tone as he blew up a bubble with his gum.

a slight smile formed on the girl's lips as she turned around to look at jungkook. "suure." she said in a sarcastic tone and walked away.
