Good Guys Finish Lasting

Your POV

I sat in my room thinking about what Hobi had said to me the other day. He'll help me? But how? Well come to think of it; it might be possible that he can. After all he's an agent working for the government. How nice. He has such a nice job, and here I am. I mentally cursed myself. Tch! I just hate this world.

My phone rang. It was Hoseok. It kept ringing as I thought about whether I should pick it up. I've been avoiding his calls for days. I'm still too embarrassed to face him.
The ringing ended as I failed to pick up the phone once again. I sighed when I got a text from him. I opened it.

I don't know why you're still not picking up, but I'll let you know that I've hired a lawyer to reopen Ren's case.

Wait, what?! He's reopening it? But how will he win it? From where will he get the proof?

How? What about the proof?

He saw the message I sent but didn't reply. Why isn't he replying? I was getting anxious. I looked out the window and saw that the weather was clear. It was rainy season so I was avoiding going out. I took a deep breath. Okay. Let's go. I have to get the answers. I stood up and went down; no one else was home. I opened the front door and saw it was pouring down. What's this? It was clear just now? Ah, to hell with it! His house isn't that far anyway. I decided to run in the heavy rain.

It wasn't a good idea. By the time I was at his door I was drenched from head to toe. Great. I rang the bell. After a few seconds, Hoseok opened the door.

"Panda?" He looked at me astonished.

"I came to talk," I sneezed.

"Oh. Okay, okay. Come in first." He let me in, and I went into the lounge only to find a very beautiful lady sitting there.

"Ah, this is the sister of the client for whom I'm reopening the case," Hobi told the other girl.

"And this is Haley." Hoseok introduced her to me. For a moment I felt better until he said the next line. "Hailey is a very close friend of mine." He sat on the sofa.

"I see," I said, annoyed.

Hailey got up. "I have another client to see. We'll talk later. Bye, bye, dear." She smiled at Hoseok.

Dear? What the fuck? I snorted as she left.

"Come and sit," Hobi said, and I sneezed again. "Wait I'll bring you some dry clothes, so take the ones you're wearing off."

"Take these off?"

"Yeah." He stood from the sofa as I took my shirt off right there. "Ah! What are you doing?!" He looked the other way. "Change in the bathroom, not in front of me!" I could see his red ears. I took off my pants as well and threw both of the items onto him.

"Hurry up. I'll be waiting in the bathroom," I said calmly.

He grabbed my clothes, still facing the other way. "O- Okay."

He ran into his room as I went in the bathroom. That's right. I should be the only woman on his mind.

. . .

I smashed my head onto the wall as furiously as I could without injuring myself. What the hell is wrong with me? I've completely lost my mind; haven't I? How can I get jealous at this moment? And because of a women I've just met? I rolled my eyes. But she's not new to Hobi. I snorted. A close friend? Yeah, right.

There was a knock on the door. "I have dry clothes. I'm putting them here."

He went away, and I picked up the clothes, a white button-up shirt and pants. I took off my undergarments and wore the shirt, then stared at the pants and threw them aside. Fine, I am crazy. I accept it.

I went out in the lounge where he was putting the plates out for dinner. He glanced at me and froze.

"Ah. The shirt is big enough so I just wore it, the pants were too long for me," I said.

"I- I see." He continued setting the cutlery.

"And I took off my underwear too and placed them to dry; they were soaking wet."

He just nodded and didn't even look my way, but I could clearly see his bright red ears.

"I- I'll set the dinner— I mean table. Come and eat."

"Okay."

Hoseok's POV

I ran into the kitchen as my heart raced. I placed my hands onto the shelf for support. What's gotten into her? Why is she acting like that? Is she still mad at me? I gulped but then my eyes widened, and I froze as a pair of arms wrapped around me.

"Hobi~" she sweetly called out my name.

"Y- Yeah?" I stuttered as her hands rubbed my chest. My heart was pounding like crazy.

"No. Nothing. Hurry up. I'm hungry." All of the sudden she let me go and went back to the lounge.

"Oh, my heart . . ." I whispered to myself. I hope I survive. I gulped, took a deep breath, and took the food out. We had a quiet dinner, but it was very hard to stop myself from thinking indecent thoughts. What kind of woman does this? Wearing absolutely nothing but a man's shirt in his house? Somehow and gladly the dinner ended.

"Tomorrow when Hailey comes for a visit again, I'll call you over, and she'll brief you on everything about the case."

"I see." She pouted, disappointed that I couldn't tell her any detail.

"I'm just glad you ate nicely. How about you go home for today, and we'll meet again tomorrow for breakfast?"

"I was thinking about it, and can't I just sleep with you?"

My heart stopped.

Author's bullshit.

Hehehe poor Hobi. But I sort of like when girls go a bit wild to get their man. No?
