Mild cursing

---------  

Even though Taeyong linking arms with you was supposed to stop you from getting lost in your own world, you only got more lost. He probably has a date, how could someone as good looking as him be single. If he was that just meant there was no hope for the rest of us. So you were thinking about what his lover would look like, and what they'd be like, and everything of the sort. You even thought about the dates they'd go on, if they went on dates. So far you didn't think of Taeyong as a date person, but who knows.

"(Y/N)? We're here. You can just give me the coffees if you want, or you could come in. Either way works."

"Not to intrude or anything, but I don't mind bringing them inside. I'm kind of curious what you do as a job to bring coffee for so many people."

"I'm the... uh... boss of a small company. We take turns doing coffee runs, and we've learned over the years that I'm best at it."

You just nodded and followed him inside, only to be greeted by a tall, good-looking man. "So you're the person Taeyong saved," he said, slinging his arm over the shorter's shoulder.

"Get your arm off of me Johnny."

"Yea I'm the person he saved, nice to meet you, I'm (Y/N)."

"Taeyong you saved someone good looking, and more polite than the dreams."

"The dreams aren't polite, they're just scared," Taeyong responded, walking further inside with the coffee. So of course you follow him, not knowing the building. "You can set the coffees here, if you want to meet anyone feel free to hang around for a little bit and just get one of them to show you out, or I could do that now."

"Wouldn't it be bothersome for me to stay?"

"No, most of them don't have stuff to do today."

"Oh, alright. I guess I'll stay then." Taeyong nodded, grabbing a coffee and then walking off. Shortly after he walked out, a few men walked in, all annoyingly good looking. When they noticed you they decided to say hi.

"Hi! I'm Mark!"

"Jeno."

"Haechan!"

"Nice to meet you, I'm (Y/N)."

"You must be the one Taeyong-hyung saved," Mark said.

"Is that what I'm known by around here? Also does Taeyong have a thing for attractive men working under him, because the whole time I've been here I haven't seen anyone that looks average."

"Does that mean you can't see Mark," Haechan asked, earning a punch on the arm from Mark.

"I think Taeyong picks us based on skills though, like I'm good with computers, Haechan's good with people, and Jeno is just, uh, good at persuasion," Mark said. You nod in understanding.

"I wish I could say the same, I lost my job the other day due to the company closing, and have yet to have any luck in finding a new job."

"Well I'm sure if you really need one, Taeyong would have something you can do," Haechan said, causing Mark and Jeno to look at him.

"He's already done so much for me, I can't ask him to do more for me. Plus, I'm pretty sure he hates my guts, he always seems annoyed every time I see him." The boys let out small laughs.

"He doesn't hate you, he just hides his emotions. He'd rather people not be worried about he's doing. If anything he probably would like to make sure you're actually fine, most other times he wouldn't even put your phone number in his phone, let alone even listen to you." You just looked at the boys in surprise.

"That can't be true, the way he responds also seems like he's annoyed."

"He might have done that just to piss you off, it wouldn't be a first."

"Are you talking trash about me behind my back," Taeyong asked, appearing in the doorframe.

"Shit," you said.

"So you were?"

"I was just asking questions I swear."

"Questions you couldn't ask me?"

"I mean answer if you wanna, but why are you annoyed by me?" This time Taeyong actually let out a laugh.

"As the boys said, if you annoyed me I wouldn't have picked up your number."

"Picked up," Mark asked. Your face burned at the memory.

"I pissed them off, they still wanted to do something for me, so they wrote their number down and then threw it at me."

"Next time don't piss me off if you don't want me to get violent."

"Violent? Throwing a flimsy piece of paper at me? I'm terrified." Mark, Jeno, and Haechan laughed causing you to shoot a small glare at them. You liked to think you had a scary glare, but they didn't even flinch.

"What am I, the bad guy? I'm not trying to kill you. Plus for your information, paper-cuts hurt like hell." Once again the boys burst out into laughter, this time Taeyong joining. "Excuse me? Did I say something funny?"

"No, just the way you said it was funny," Haechan said.

"Well great. Guess I can't speak anymore."

"Well I'm going back to work, so excuse me as I take my leave again," Taeyong said, walking out once again. The three boys follow shortly after, not wanting to piss Taeyong off. So that's when you decided you might as well leave.
