"I need-a muse."
"And you think I can help you with that?"
"I have no idea if this could work. But what I do know is that I am going to need you there with me."

The first thing you notice about Tokyo is the rush.
The sun is starting to come down as you sit in the backseat of the rented car with Yoongi by your side, watching the city and every visible part of it moving in quick, steady motions through the car window as the car drives down the main roads.
Yoongi is currently busy with his phone while allowing you to have a moment to marvel at the sight around you. There is no schedule set to happen tonight, so you simply cannot wait to arrive at the hotel and have a quick hot bath before you could rest for the night. You can hear your stomach rumbling since the car left the airport, but you could hardly acknowledge it when you cannot even stop the yawns that keep pushing through.
A warm hand rests on your thigh and you look over to Yoongi as he smiles. "You look tired," he says. "I was planning to take you out to dinner, but how about we take it to the hotel and eat up there?"
You are truly exhausted, but you know that it is not all you are feeling at the moment. You blame it on the jet lag but there is this thick haze that has been in your head that makes it hard for you to think clearly ever since you had gotten on the flight.
Placing your hand on top of his, you give Yoongi a grateful smile. "That sounds like a good idea," you tell him, deciding that spending the night in a more private place will allow you to adjust better to being this close to Yoongi.
You have been a bit apprehensive about having to share sleeping quarters with Yoongi during the trip. But as you finally arrive at the hotel, you are relieved to find that he had made it easier for you to deal with it by choosing a bigger suite which has a spare bedroom and two separate bathrooms to use.
The relief is short-lived, however, when he pulls you into his arms as you walk in with him into the suite and whispers, "You can sleep in the bigger bedroom, and I'll take the spare. But later, once we leave here, I am not going to let you stay far from me even while we're sleeping."
Yoongi sends you into your room with the promise he made still lingering in your mind.
With your knees nearly buckling and your skin warm to the touch, not only because of the promise he made, but also the way he brushed his lips against your temple and how his gentle palm was touching the small of your back. You try to brush it off by telling yourself that you are simply overreacting, only because you are not used to him acting this way towards you. To have him constantly flirting and throwing you off balance with his gentle touches.
Having no expectation of what you are going to encounter next, you take your time in the privacy of your bedroom to enjoy your space. After a warm shower, you move to change into something more comfortable for you to rest for the night. As you are rustling through your luggage, you regret the fact that you had chosen to bring all the revealing nighties for this trip, when you have been expecting to be spending your nights entertaining your client. Which, is still something that you need to do, you realise.
