I had, had enough.
Enough of the same old clothes that I had worn for the last 2 weeks. I needed more clothes.
Internet shopping would not fulfil my needs.
I needed a serious day out.

Since Sehun, our fashion expert, couldn't come with me like he always does I decided to ask the next "best thing".
That being Minseok our bartender.

I had no idea if he knew anything about fashion, but he always told the truth and was brutally honest so...
That's good enough.
I know what suits me.

Baekhyun likes me in red the most so I'll keep that in mind.

"Minseok, since it's you day off.
Would you please come shopping with me? Sehunnie is busy today and I could use your brutal honesty."
I batted my eyelashes and he rolled his eyes before getting up and putting his jacket on.
"We won't be too long, will we?
Because I don't want to miss the fight I scheduled with Chanyeol tonight."
I chuckled and pulled him into a hug, which he rejected by putting his hands up in the air.
He knew Baekhyun was at the top of the staircase watching our every move.

I pulled away and looked up at him. He wore a green suit today, it suited him to a T, especially with his grey hair.

"Don't worry, you and Chanyeol can have your fight. I won't interrupt that, I swear."
I picked up my bag and looked to Jongin who was walking by.
I almost shivered; but smiled at him lovingly. He was still like a brother to me, after all.
He smirked slightly before walking off with his hands in his dark jean pockets.
I swallowed the lump in my throat before turning my attention back to Minseok.
He was placing his gun in his jacket, checking it had ammunition to fire.
"What's that for?"
I asked as we're only going shopping, not for a street fight.

"Just precaution, Penny."

"Well I have different precautions." A voice said from behind me, I turned to face the owner. It was Baekhyun.
"You're not going, that's it."
"what?..." I said in an upset way, I really needed to get out of this place for a while.
Especially for retail therapy.
"I'm sorry my darling.
But it is not safe, even with Minseok with you. It's not
you or him I don't trust;
it's everyone else."

"Well, what if we take Jongin as well then. You can't get better than him apart from you." Minseok said. I looked to Baekhyun, he sighed before looking to the ceiling and clicking his knuckles.
"Fine, but as long as you are with Jongin and Minseok at all times."

"What, even in the changing room?" I asked without thinking. 'It was a joke in my head, I didn't mean to say it out loud for Baekhyun to hear.'

"No, any spying or looking at her without clothes on then...
well you know the consequences as it seems I go over them everyday."
I smiled at Minseok as soon as he walked off, he rolled his
eyes at me.
"Wait, Jongin has got to come."
"Yep."
I groaned in annoyance.
"As long as he isn't rude then I don't care."
"Stop complaining. You were lucky. If it wasn't for my great plan we wouldn't be going at all. So count yourself lucky."
"Yeah, what a 'great' bloody plan." I mumbled under my breath. I looked towards Jongin and felt a slight shiver.
He had an aura.
It was just literal frost.
Baekhyun was cold, but he had the charm of being annoyingly charming and perfect.
Jongin was just stone cold.
The best way to compare him to Baekhyun would be this.

An instance in when a man had not paid money back to Baekhyun. Baekhyun would laugh at him, mock him and be somewhat torturous.
Whereas Jongin would straight up shoot him through the skull.
No hesitation or foreplay.

I looked to Minseok who motioned towards the mysterious and deathly quiet man. 'The observer' as he was known. He would watch you until he knew your mind inside out. He knew everything about you before you did.
He has everyone worked out.
That's what makes him so strong. Oh, he also spends his life in the gym and only eats leaves. That's Jongin.

I guess it's time for me to get dressed into something more classy rather than my nightie and some jogging bottoms.
No one was in 'Loveshot' at
this time in the morning;
and it's Monday.

I changed into a simple outfit.

I ran down the stairs to the empty casino and saw Jongin at the bar, drinking a glass of water. 'Water? Health freak.'
I thought, not meaning to be so mean about my words.
I mean he just was very health conscious I my opinion.
Minseok was on the pinball machine. I guess it's time to face the ice block.
If he scares me: I'm getting Baekhyun. I'm pretty sure he's the only person Jongin will listen to. Maybe, Mr
bossy' Suho but apart from that... not really anyone.

"Here goes."
