I wake up laying on my side looking out of my window. I hear a groan on my back shoulders. I smile and find his hand, deciding to place my hand in his. "Good, morning." Namjoon leans closer and places a kiss on my shoulder. Wrapping his arms around me.

I snuggle up into him and hear, "Yesterday was fun. Did you think about what I was offering?" Later after last night, Namjoon had asked me to start "dating". I didn't have an answer at first. But as time went by I couldn't deny I had some kind of feelings for him. That was obvious from last night.

"Alright, I'll do it," I answer with a smile. Namjoon has a big grin on his face and he wraps his arms around me. I hug him back, as well. This wasn't really, dating. More so, like, we were dating in private and no one knows yet. Obviously, they didn't want to hear I started doing things with Namjoon.

I look over at the clock and read 12:34 pm. "Uhhhh, I'm getting up." Namjoon shuffles around on the bed and turns over. "Hey, do you want any food? I'm ordering in." Namjoon stretches his arms and legs out. "What are you ordering?" He swings his body around and plants himself on the bed.

"Possibly, something of a burger?" He gives me a confused look. Thoughts cross my mind as to why he would make that face. "Are you a vegetarian?" He's shocked. "Oh, no... I just don't know what it is exactly..."

"Oh! It's this thing with meat and bread and vegetables in it." He snaps and points his fingers, to agree. "I would like to try that. I've heard of it before but never got to try one." I reach for my phone and call the burger in for us. I nod my head in understanding. It takes 10 seconds till someone answered the phone. I order one with everything and cheese, dry so he could add the sauce himself. We get dressed before the delivery person shows up.

We get the food in under 30 minutes and finish the meal. "Please, tell me that you're gonna order them again later." We laugh and clean up the area. I make my way into the kitchen and grab a notepad and pen. I check for supplies and food around the place to see if I need anything. It's low on counter cleaner and paper towels. Definitely, needed toilet paper. Food-wise I need bacon, sliced cheese, onions, and potatoes. The rest I can pick up if I notice it at the time.

"What are you doing?" Namjoon walks into the room and lays over the counter next to me. He squints his eyes like an excited toddler. He opens them and waits for an answer. "Well, I'm about to head into uptown to get some groceries and other things, if needed. Would you like to come?" I ask with a smile. "Sure!"

I sketch a line underneath the items and rip the page off. I stuff the paper into my jeans' right pocket. I grab my keys and we put on our shoes. Namjoon grabs his jacket last second. 'Hopefully, Namjoon won't do anything dangerous this time..' I, quietly, sigh. "Alright! Let head out," I smiled.

When I look over at the door he's already there. He's leaned on the door and looks like he's ready to make a run and leave me, till I meet him there, jokingly. "Took you long enough." He has a big Cheshire Cat grin plastered on his face. He turns and reaches for the doorknob. He pulls the door open and waves his hand saying, "After you." I blush and make my way through and pull him along.

It doesn't take long before we reach the store. Doors just out of reach. "God, it's hot." Namjoon stops in a way that his shoes make a scraping sound when it's dragged down at the last second. I turn and try to ask what's wrong, but before I can ask he already answers with, "Don't say that name." I puzzle it together and understand after what's happened. He notices the people coming up to the doors and hurriedly suggests, "We should probably get going." He's still stuck waiting for me to make the first move inside. I hurriedly scurry inside knowing he'll be behind me.

I didn't wanna argue either cause we're falling behind from another encounter with a fluffy cat. Namjoon had to stop and pet him. Nothing bad happened this time with others, though. So that was a plus. Hopefully, it can stay that way from now on. We immediately went to the shopping carts and grabbed one. I plan on this being an in and out ordeal. Maybe grab a few snacks if they sounded good.

"So, how long is this going to take?" I put together the time it should take to get everything on the list. "Probably, about 30 minutes to an hour."

"Alright, then what?" It dawns on me that he's probably never had to go to only one store for things now. "Oh, that's it. Everything we need is in this store."

"Including the meat and vegetables?" I chuckle. "Yep, it can all be found here." He gives me this look of shock and awe. "Even furniture can be found in, some, stores." He bolts to the other side of the store and leaves me. Well, that's weird... This is weird, even for him. He never leaves me. I shrug it off and continue grocery shopping enjoying the silence and peace. I continue pushing the cart through the isles. I got the bread and the cereal when I heard someone from behind me speak.

"Hello."
.
Definitely, not Namjoon talking to me. I turn around with my hand on my heart. They had startled me when they came from no-where to be seen. I have a slight amount of anxiety. "Are you alright?" He must have noticed I was spooked. "Yeah, don't worry. How can I help you?" He smiles and says, "I'm looking for a friend of mine. I was wondering if you've seen him?"

"Sure, I can help, what's your friend look like?" He shuffles around for a piece of paper in his pocket. He finds it and yanks it out and unfolds it. "This is my friend." He holds up the paper and I have to hold myself back from gasping. He's looking for Namjoon. I don't know if he's friendly, or not so I think to tell him no. "No, sorry. Good luck finding him though." I'm quick to end the conversation by putting my hands on the buggy.

"Sorry, I really must be going. I hope you can find your friend." I smile and send him on his way with a sense of good luck. He waves back wishing me a good day. As I turn the corner, I see him talking into his hand. I must find Namjoon. I go around the corners trying to find him. Soon I find him in the movie section. I make my way over to him. "Hey, we need to talk..." He looks up in confusion. "You look nervous, are you alright?"

"We probably want to go home now. I think someone's looking for you." He pauses and looks like he's in shock. "Who was it?"

"I'm not sure, I never got his name."

"What did they look like?" I explain that he looked like he wore a jean jacket, jeans, has a scar on his eye. He raises his hand. "I know who that is. His name is James." He grabs my arm. "Let's go." He pulls me towards the doors after we quickly check out. We quickly get into my car and head back to the apartment.
