THE INTERVENTION // Kim Namjoon

IV

MJ helped me with my luggage to Namjoon's house. I read that he was rich but I didn't really consider the word 'filthy' always attached to it. I turned to MJ quite unsure if this was our destination.
'MJ, are you sure we're not lost? I don't think is is where he lives."
"He doesn't just live here, he owns the whole place and 10km away from here - the whole estate." He said and I immediately felt uneasy. There's no way.....
"You're kidding me. Right? I can't do this anymore. Can we just go back home." I said making puppy eyes.
"Don't be silly, Y/N. Get down and let me help you in with your luggage. He's probably waiting for you." He said kicking me out of his vehicle.  We strolled in and walked around. I had to admit, this place was damn huge. I'm sure if I had to pay for spending a single night at a place like this, my annual income wouldn't be enough for it. We walked around the huge area and couldn't find him or anybody else. I wondered if a human being lives here at all. Then I sighed in relief when a young lady appeared.
"Good evening, I am Mily." If not for the way she introduced herself. I could never have guessed she was a maid. This man sure had a nice fashion taste.
"Are you Miss Y/N?" She asked and I nodded.
"Sir is waiting for you upstairs." She said pointing at the second floor of the building at the left. It had glass walls so I could clearly see him seated close to it, with a book in hand. He must have seen us the whole time. Mily led the way to him.
"Sir?" MJ was the first to talk
"Oh...you're here." He said and continued, "Thank you, Mily." He said dismissing the maid. Seeing a rich person thank their maid, whether in real life or in a movie was a sweet gesture which I never witnessed or at least expected from him. For some reason, it made me smile.
"Its nice to see you again, Y/N." He smiled again. Oh no...don't do that, it makes my heart jump.
"And MJ, thank you for coming with her. Do you mind staying for dinner?"
"Actually sir...I don't think...." He starts stammering, something he does when he wants to politely decline a request. I knew him too well but that ain't happening. Not today.
I jerked his arm and interrupted. "What he means to say is. He doesn't think he'll be able to decline that offer, Sir."
That looked like a statement he'd be happy to hear but I don't know what part of it made him look uneasy.
"Mily will show you to the room you'll be making use of. If there's anything else you'll need, you can ask her too. I already assigned her to attend to you for the whole weekend."
Cool.

The evening went by quickly and MJ left after a few hours. It was less awkward than I thought it would be and we clicked just fine. I was gonna be meeting his parents the next morning and I was super anxious. The fact that I wasn't even a real girlfriend made the whole pretense thing a bit more difficult for me. However, I was in a luxurious home, I wanted to enjoy the whole stuff. The night view of the whole place would be awesome. I thought to myself. Suddenly I heard a knock and I mouthed a 'come in' before my lazy brain could process what I was still dressed in. Kim Nam Joon walked in much to my surprise, with two glasses of wine~
I quickly covered my chest with my two hands and he chucked "You don't have to. I'm okay with it."
"Do you wanna take a walk with me?" He asked extending a glass of wine making my hand leave my chest. Guess it doesn't matter, I still had my singlet on.
"I don't think that'd be a good idea. I know you're busy Sir." I said but that uneasy look he gave me earlier reappeared.
"Y/N....." he called my name, paused and continued ".....I want us to drop the formalities." He reminded me and continued. "Don't worry. I've cleared out the schedule for the whole weekend for this and I plan on enjoying it to the fullest so come with me. I'll show you around." He held out his hand for me to take.
The cold wind blew against our skin as we strolled towards the garden. I was right, the night view of this place was not only awesome, it was much more. Not like anything I'd ever seen or experience. Aside from baking, nature and music were the only things that made me relaxed.
"This place is mind-blowing." I remarked.
"Do you like it?"
"Are you kidding me? I loooove it." I said, pulling away from him and walking a few feet forward.
"Its simple but has the best elements of relaxation. Night, Nature and...." I paused as I realised my 3rd element was absent.
"Music." He completely took me by surprise.
"How'd you know?"
"Because that sounds exactly like what a Kim Nam Joon would say." He replied, having positioned himself on a bench nearby. He motioned for me to come sit next to him. If anything, I was crazy for romantic settings, credit to tons of movies I've watched.
"I have to admit. I'm quite nervous about tomorrow. I'm not used to doing stuff like this." I said gulping down the last of my wine.
"Funny."
"Its not funny."
"Okay. Which part are you nervous about? The pretense part? Or The Girlfriend part?"
"Both."
"You don't look like someone who's not been in a relationship."
"Is it always written on the face?" I hissed.
"You're joking." He starts laughing.
"I'm not and stop laughing." I glared at him and wrapped both arms around my upper body. Wearing just the singlet was a bad idea after all. He finally stopped laughing when he noticed my uneasy self and suggested we go back in since he didn't have a blanket with him. He walked me to my door~
"So...goodnight it is."
"Goodnight, Namjoon." I muttered softly in response to him as I bit my lip.
"There's nothing to be nervous about. I'm sure they would like you." He raised his eyebrows as if he had one more thing to say but just replied,
"Goodnight, Y/N"
