i would get it until i die

after his chat with bang pd, jitae headed back to the fitting room to find dahae. the woman was sitting at one of the desks that were against the wall with the entry door, both computers on the desk were on. the only thing open on each was the google homepage. jitae frowned upon entering, furrowing his brows as he looked to the site.

"what are we doing?" he asks, dahae turns to him and smiles.

"we are going to begin ordering!" she says, sounding really excited about the prospect of finding the wardrobes for the theme they must have been given. she quickly sits on the chair she had right behind her, patting the seat of the other beside her to get jitae to sit. he did, still a little confused.

"is everything already chosen?" he asks, dahae nods.

"we were supposed to start while you were in hospital and at home recovering. i planned out most of the outfits already, but if you find anything you like that you think might fit with what i have picked out, order it."

"okay."

dahae passed jitae a file of papers that had been stapled together neatly in the corner. the file was pages of clothing items with sites, reference numbers, names, and prices as well as a check box beside each picture. the front of the file had stick note on it, an address and bank info had been neatly written on it.

"find each item and put that in when it asks for payment and order details," she says, getting to work right away. jitae nods and turns to the computer in front of him, typing in the first site and beginning to search for the first item on the list. the plan appeared that they would do it member by member - dahae's paper had the name 'yeonjun' written on the top while jitae's had 'heuningkai', which he recognized as the boy he had met before.

it took the pair of them hours to order everything, plus jitae had actually found a couple of accessories he had thrown in as well, ordering them the same way he had ordered everything else. he had an idea of how everything was going to go together, and it was kind of fun to see the sets fit together between what all the members were wearing. he couldn't wait for everything to arrive so they could actually see it all on the boys and not just have to imagine it.

jitae managed to order all of kai and taehyun's items, dahae taking care of yeonjun', soobin', and beomgyu's. once everything was ordered dahae rolled away from the desk on her chair, sighing and messing up her hair that had been tied back then undone several times.

"right, let's go, lunch time," she says, ignoring that it was closer to two pm than noon, but that didn't matter. she stood from her chair and grabbed a fistful of jitae's red sweater, pulling him along and out of his own chair. he simply went with it, quickly being released and being allowed to just walk comfortably beside her. he laughed at her, she was cool, already he felt they were friends again and for jitae that was the best thing he could have asked for. dahae was casual with him, as though nothing had happened to him. she wasn't fussing or worrying over him like jungkook did at home. okay, jungkook didn't outwardly fuss, but jitae could tell everything he did was while thinking and worrying over jitae and if he was okay.

dahae wasn't like that.

"i'll shout this time, but next time you owe me, park," she says, looking up at him and pointing her index finger right at him. he just laughs and smiles again.

"where are we even going?" he asks, hands in his pockets as the pair of them make their way floor at a time out of the bighit building. dahae shrugs and tosses back her hair, pulling on a black beret hat as they reach the ground floor.

"barbecue or noodles?" she asks him, looking around as the pair of them walk past several people. jitae thinks a moment.

"noodles i guess," he chooses. dahae nods and walks through the main doors and onto the street, tucking her tag into her black t-shirt she had under her pale pink denim jacket. jitae did the same, thinking that might actually be a good idea. he follows dahae, walking a step behind her as she made her way down the road side.

"there's a place down here, we've been before. it's really good so prepare yourself," she says, the only undertones in her words were those of teasing and fun.

"i will." jitae found the whole thing funny. eventually the pair of them walked into the noodle place down the road and jitae's senses were filled with beautiful and familiar smells. it smelt amazing in here, meats of all kinds mixed with spices and vegetables, salts and sweets blended elegantly together. it smelt like jitae was in heaven.

an older woman walked to them and gestured for them to sit, beginning a spiel on what they had and the days deals. jitae had no idea what was going on so just go dahae to order two of whatever she ended up getting. they ended up with about three bowls each of a variety of different noodle dishes. as they waited for their food, dahae spoke up.

"you're getting everything right?" she asks, tilting her head slightly as she asks. jitae nods.

"yeah, it's all making sense so far, what's the next step?"

"from here?" she confirms, "well, when everything arrives we need to resort it and make sure it all fits together. after that we get the band in and they do try-ons, any alterations are made if needed, then comes promo photos and music video shooting, then we work on stage costumes and suits for press conferences." jitae looked a little stunned after all of that, only managing a simple word after hearing it all.

"whoa."

"yeah, we get really busy coming up to comeback, and after comeback. plus if there is a tour we have to go with them." just as dahae was explaining their meals come over. words of thanks were exchanged as the food was placed before them. it smelt exquisite, just as the whole place had when jitae walked in.

"this looks amazing," he gushes, picking up the chopsticks he had been given and placing them in his right hand. dahae frowned but passed over it.

"let us eat well," she says. jitae echoed and the pair dug into the food before them. it was incredible. they ate in silence, not speaking again until they had both had their fill of amazing food. jitae leaned back in his chair and dahae stretched, groaning.

"mmm we have to go back to work now," she says, huffing as though annoyed by that prospect. jitae laughs at her, smiling genuinely. the pair stand and thank the owner again, heading out and back towards the building they had left to eat. as they approached they pulled out their tags, allowing them back inside the building and up to their work space.

jitae was happy to be back to work.
