The Agency || SUJU Eunhyuk

Chapter Seven

I arrive at the warehouse, head to the tech room and it's empty. I find this odd so go to the living room and no one is there either.

'Maybe everyone is still asleep, even though it's one in the afternoon?'

I begin to go to everyone's room and knock on the door. After a long silence from the other side, I would open the door and find no one in the room. I arrive at Eunhyuk's room and decide if I want to knock or not. My hand knocks on the door and I get an answer.

I open the door and look at the red head on the bed playing on his phone. "Where is everyone else?" I ask.

"They all went out to do something. Why are you here?"

"I came to help with getting Kangin, Ryeowook and you in as workers of the event," I answer.

"Why would you come over without discussing it with the other?" Eunhyuk wonder. He turns off his phone and stares at me.

"Shindong told me to come over."

"For future reference, don't listen to that Hyung. He can never be on time."

I nod to him. "I'll just go home then." I try to close the door, but Eunhyuk calls my name. I peek through a crack and stare at him. "What?"

"You can stay here and wait for everyone else."

I nod and leave the room. I go out to the living room and begin to watch some tv. About a half an hour after getting here, Eunhyuk joins me in the living room. We sit on either end of the couch and watch the show in silence.

We chuckle at the funny parts of the episode, but that's the extent of the noise between us. I feel so uncomfortable right now sitting with Eunhyuk. I'm pretty comfortable with everyone else but him.

His stomach growls and I look over to him. "Do you want me to make some food for us?" I offer.

"You don't have to, I can make some food myself." He gets up from the couch.

"It won't be a bother at all and I'm a pretty good cook." I get up as well and follow him into the kitchen.

We have this mini staring contest and I end up winning. Eunhyuk gestures for me to cook and I bow to him. I begin to make some stir-fry and rice. It might be simple, but it'll be pretty good.

I set a bowl down in front of Eunhyuk and sit across from him with my own bowl. I stare at Eunhyuk and wait for him to take a bite. He does and his eyes light up.

"This is pretty good," he says with a mouthful of food.

"I'm glad you like it." I begin to eat the meal as well. It gets quiet between us again.

"Why are you here all by yourself?" I wonder. I take another bite of food as I wait for the answer.

"I wanted to have some alone time, it's pretty hard to come by in this warehouse," he says.

"Being all by yourself isn't too great," I mumble.

"Why's that?"

I think about all the reasons I hate being alone.

"It's too quiet," I answer. "The silence is what kills."

Eunhyuk nods. "Is that why you like being here?"

I nod. I might not talk for long periods of times or often, but being with them makes me feel like I'm not alone. I continue to eat the meal that I cooked.

Another silence falls between Eunhyuk and I. I finish my meal, put the bowl in the sink and sit down across from Eunhyuk. He looks at me briefly before staring down at his bowl of food.
