"Oh god." I squeeze my eyes shut and look away. I slam my hand over my eyes for good measure. "I'm so sorry."

He chuckles, which sorta infuriates me. "Geez, Sola, ever heard of knocking?"

I pivot on my heel to rest my forehead on the wall, refusing to open my eyes. Not until I wash them with bleach. "I didn't think you'd be in the middle of — whatever this is." I gesture vaguely behind me.

There's a rustling, and then the sound of a zipper. If only I could phase through the wall.

"It's called changing clothes after taking a post-workout shower, Sola."

"Well, excuse me for not having your schedule memorized, Johnny."

"You can look now."

I shake my head with enough force to pop my neck. "No way, buddy pal. I'm not opening my eyes until you're decked out in full-on winter gear."

Suddenly, I can feel him next to me, probably leaning against the wall. He's warm, a goddamn furnace in summer. He looms too, the giant.

"What about a tank top and khaki shorts?"

"Not even socks? Scandalous."

He chuckles once more, and I'm infuriated all over again. "C'mon, Sola. It's not like you've never seen a naked man before."

Lips pursed, I push off the wall and dare a peek at the ground. "Shut up, Youngho." I cross my arms. I wonder if I could spontaneously combust from my furious blush. New superpower for the shy and flushed.

He settles his hand on the top of my head, like a basketball. He ruffles my hair. "Cutie."

I watch as he saunters to his couch, strides long. He pretends he hadn't just tripped over the rug and flops down in the middle of the sofa. Legs wide, he takes up as much space as he can. Easy for him, the giant.

When I realize I've been staring at his crotch—and I realize he could realize the same thing—I look away and stare intensely at the floor. Trying that spontaneous combustion thing again.

"You gonna join me, flamingo?"

"I — uh — don't think so." I start for the door, sliding across the floor and glancing at everything but him. "I'm gonna flush my eyeballs out with bleach."

"Aw, come on!" he calls as I step into the hallway. "It couldn't have been that bad!"

I slam the door shut and lean against it, sighing. I whisper, "And that's the problem."

a/n: so here's the first chapter of my new fanfic! as mentioned in the extended summary part, this story will NOT be in chronological order. i have dates indicated so we can avoid complete confusion as best we can.

another thing i want to say: there will be adult themes throughout this fanfic; however, this is NOT outright smut. so for all my fellow smut-enthusiasts—sorry to have let you down 😜

and just for the sake of my own curiosity:
who is your nct bias? ❤️
(my main bias is Kun, in case anyone was wondering)
