-Kihyun-

 Hours has passed, its not even the end of my shift and I'm already worn out. I never knew Eomma had this much work, it must've been tough for her working this much after all these years.

I sigh and just gave up doing the work, I stood up and called in Hyunwoo. He's being a bit off today, ever since I met Hoseok this morning Hyunwoo has been acting cold towards me for the whole day.

Hyunwoo comes in and bows at me "De, Sir" I clear my throat and took my coat "Hyung. .I told you to not call me in a formal matter. I think I'm done for the day so we're going home early" He nods and follows me out of the door.

----

It was a long awkward car ride on the way home, I received a text message from Minhyuk asking me to call him.

I glanced at hyung who was driving at the front and looked back at my phone dialing him. After waiting for a few minutes of waiting he finally answered.

"Yeoboseo?" He answered and I felt Hyunwoo glancing at me from up front.

"De, Minhyuk-ah!!" I say excitedly.

"Kihyun! How's the first day for your training?" On the other line I can hear cameras taking shots, he must be having a photo shoot today.

"Uh well its going okay I guess. .its a lot of work though. I have to praise eomma for doing all of this without actually showing how tired she is"

"Ah. . .well how's it going with you know who?" Then suddenly the car went to a halt, Hyunwoo turns to me and apologizes "Mianhe Sir, we reached your place" I look out at the window and he was right. We were in front of my apartment building.

I look back at my phone and said to Minhyuk "oh sorry buddy we can talk for a bit, how about we do a  face time tonight?" I was really disappointed that I can only talk to my friend for a quick moment.

Hyunwoo opens the car door for me and bows "I'll see you tomorrow Sir?" He ask. I look at him with a blank look and just said "uh well Hyung I want to invite you for dinner with me, I'm cooking seaweed soup and feels better when eating it with a partner"

He clears his throat and adjust his coat "I think I'm better off at home so no thanks" When he was about to go back to the driver seat I heard an unexpected sound. His stomach rumbles.

Hyunwoo blushes from embarrassment and quickly apologizes "Joesonghabnida Sir, I'm just a bit peckish." He walks away from me but I managed to grab his arm.

An electric current flows through when our skins touch, he turns to me with a surprised look "H-Hyung come on I don't like eating seaweed soup and jajangmyeon alone, I also have Soju too. Your hungry too so why not. . .please?" I pleaded to him eventually he agreed and we entered my condo.

 It was 8:30 pm, I was in the kitchen preparing the final addition to our meal while Hyunwoo was in the washroom freshening up. Honestly I'm a bit nervous having a really attractive guy in my apartment, usually I have Minhyuk or Yoongi over to have a meal but now its someone who's just my type like Hyunwoo.

While I was setting the table I heard footsteps walking towards here I look up to greet him but I froze "Hyung we're almost ready to eat just with--" Hyung was wearing nothing but a white t-shirt showing off his sexy biceps.

I gulp down looking at his figure that I almost spilled the soup "ah!" I whine in pain when the hot boiling water was touching my skin. He immediately ran towards me and held my hand after I carefully place the soup onto the table.

"Kihyun let me take a look" He noticed there were some red spots, he pulled me towards the kitchen sink and moved my hand under the running water. While he was doing that I couldn't help but blush beside him, his hands were soft and squishy compared to my small and frail one.

We stood there for awhile before Hyunwoo finally stopped "there its back to its normal colour, next time be careful Kihyun. Your mother was right, you are clumsy and in need for someone to take care of you. Your lucky I'm here" I gave him a light smile and pulled away my hand from his.

"yeah sure hyung, l-let's have our dinner you must be really hungry" I walk towards the dining table with him tailing behind me.

----

Dang. Hyung is really hungry, this is his third bowl of the soup, second plate of jajangmyeon and second glass of Soju and yet he's still stuffing his face with food. While I sit across him munching on my food bits by bits, I was staring at him for awhile realizing it he just looks so cute when he's eating. He looks like a bear, maybe I should call him that.

"Hey Hyunbear you done? Or else I have to make another batch just for you" I laugh and he joins me "Bwo? Did you just call me a bear?" I see his adorable smile for the first time which flutters my heart.

"Haha yup you look big and eat like a bear, might as well call you one" I poured myself another glass of Soju then he tried to snatch the bottle from me.

"Yah hyung too much you'll get drunk, I don't wanna be the one driving you home. That's your job" He laughs like a goofball before standing up and taking the bottle of liquor from me "come on Ki just one more glass I won't get drunk I'm vulnerable to alcohol"

"are you sure?" I ask.

"yes I promise. ." I sigh and pour him another glass.

Later that night. . .

 After dinner Hyunwoo decided stay at my place a bit longer which I was totally fine with, I love having company over. We watched a movie and ate popcorn, you know the cliche things.

While we were watching the movie my eyes started to feel a bit tired, I look at the time and it was almost 11:30 pm. I turn to Hyunwoo he was still focused on the movie, he caught me looking at him which caused me to blush he then noticed something about me "Kihyun are you tired?" Dang how did he guessed?

"Hm? what no way I'm still energized--" I couldn't help but yawn, damn it now he knows. He turned off the TV and stood up "I should get going and you better rest, you have work tomorrow remember?"

"Bwo? Hyung I'm not child I can stay up all night if I want" I stood up as well standing next to his tall body. He smiles and ruffles my hair like a kid "aye come on, go to sleep I'll carry you to bed." What the heck. . .

"pft your bluffing" He wasn't.

The next thing that happened was that I was on Hyunwoo's broad shoulder, he carries me to my bedroom and aggressively throws me onto the bed like how any buff guy would do.

"Yah!" I punch him playfully.

He laughs and then leans closer to me "Kihyun one last thing before you go to sleep" I was a little surprised why was he this close to me and why didn't he say it before

"what is it?" I expected he would give me some documents from eomma but what he gave me was really shocking. . .He kisses me on the lips.

My eyes widen from the sudden attack, I look at him and he just smiles. He heads off to the door and says "Good night Kihyun" before turning off the lights and closing the bedroom door.

I touch my lips and thought what just happened.
