Chapter 15 - Friend Date?

"Sooyeon, let's go do something instead of going home," Jinyoung suddenly suggested, breaking the silence between them.

Sooyeon stopped in her tracks. "Wait- what? All of a sudden?"

Jinyoung stopped walking too, face unreadable. "Yeah, let's do something fun together," his eyes formed wrinkles and Sooyeon assumed he was smiling under his mask.

She hesitated, but nodded after. "Let me just grab some things from my apartment and change first." Sooyeon was still wearing a comfortable lazy outfit for her morning classes, and she wanted to fix up her make up a bit.

Jinyoung and Sooyeon walked up the stairs to her building and finally arrived on her floor. Sooyeon was about to punch in the code for her door when she realized Jinyoung was standing behind her. She paused and Jinyoung stared at her in confusion.

"Well are you gonna keep staring or what?" Sooyeon gestured to her pin pad.

Jinyoung's eyes widened, finally catching onto the situation. He turned around to face the other side.

Sooyeon smirked, punching in her pinpad code. 09221994

She opened her door and suddenly remembered the mess she had left right before leaving. Her bras were sitting on the living room couch and she had left a bunch of snacks lying around on the floor.

"The apartment you live in is quite nice-" Jinyoung started taking off his shoes. Sooyeon quickly pushed him back out of the apartment and he stumbled, confused with only one shoe on.

"Give me a second," she panicked and shut the door in his face. Sooyeon ran to the couch and scooped up all of her bras, throwing them into her room and closing the door behind her. She quickly picked up all the garbage left on the floor and threw it out, making a mental note to sort the recyclables out when her absolute idol wasn't standing right outside of her apartment. She quickly scooped up whatever crumbs she could off the coffee table with her bare hands. Running back to the front door, she smoothed out her shirt and took a deep breath.

"Sorry about that," she opened the door to a still flustered Jinyoung. "You can come in now," she inhaled sharply, still out of breath from running around.

Jinyoung hesitated, then chuckled. "Are you sure? I can come back another time if you want."

"No! No, I'm okay now." Sooyeon inisted, stepping to the side to give him room to enter. Jinyoung hesitantly entered, glancing at Sooyeon in worry that she might try shoving him out again.

Once Jinyoung truly stepped into her house, Sooyeon realized the situation. She just let a man enter her home. And no one else was there. They were completely alone.

"As I was saying, your apartment complex seems to be nicely built," Jinyoung observed, raising one eyebrow and taking off his other shoe. He laughed abruptly at her slippers. "Are those pandas?"

Sooyeon looked down, only to see that her feet were adorned with her favorite giant fluffy panda slippers. Feeling her ears turn red, she tried to hide one foot behind her calf. "Shut up, Jinyoung," she laughed as well, embarrassed.

"Why, it's cute!" Jinyoung chuckled lightly. "Do I get giraffe ones?"

Sooyeon placed a pair of plain grey slippers in front of him. "Those are reserved for very special guests," she abused back, grinning widely at him. "Sit anywhere you'd like, let me just change."

Jinyoung walked straight towards Sooyeon's TV stand, where her mom had proudly placed a few of Sooyeon's childhood photos. He leaned down to get a closer look.
