highly overdue

Eun Won found herself in a situation she never ever could have imagined or come up with on her own. She had given in on the boy's plea and was now "helping" him with his project. She was his muse. His inspiration. Not her words. They were his.

The tension in the room was building up as if it wasn't bad enough from before. Maybe it was all in her head. He didn't seem bothered by it at all. Eun Won had come to the conclusion that she was too shy to be bold in these types of situations. A part of her found relief in the fact that he felt this comfortable around her. Another part of her was mortified. He was not the shy boy she thought he was, at all. She didn't dare to think about how Hoseok was acting around all the ladies if Jimin was like this. Hoseok. She wondered how he was doing. She hadn't seen him around lately.

Her gaze wandered to the boy in front of her. Jimin was focused on the canvas. His bottom lip was tucked underneath his front teeth. He had a habit of doing that while being very focused. He also got these cute crinkles on his forehead, between his eyebrows.

"How is it going? Want me to come and look?" She asked curiously. She was usually not the model. She was a painter. Oh lord, how tables had turned.

Jimin looked up at her. He let go of his bottom lip. "It's getting there. I am almost done with the sketching"

Eun Won nodded. He was working faster than she thought. He was a music and dance major. She had not expected much of him, but boy was she wrong. After today she was fully convinced, he could switch majors and no one would ever question it, at all.

"By the way, are you free any other day this week? I feel like we should wrap up when the sketch is done and continue another day," Jimin said as his eyes were fully focused on the canvas, and his hand was moving across the surface.

Did he really want her to come back? He could work on the rest of the painting without her. That would be no problem. She thought for a second before answering his question.

"You want me to come back?"

Jimin stopped what he was doing and looked up at her. His intimidating gaze meeting hers. She was a nervous mess. How did she end up in this setting?

"Why is that even a question? Of course, I want you to come back. You are my inspiration. I am painting you, Eun Won. I want to look at you as I do so. Do you not like it? Is it that bad?" He seemed worried now.

She shook her head. She didn't want to be an ass. He had been so kind to her. Now it was her time to pay back the favor. "No, it's not bad. It's better than I had imagined. It is just weird to not paint. I am used to being behind the canvas you know"

Jimin chuckled. He looked down at the canvas before him again. "It was highly overdue then babe"

Eun Won jumped at the sound of her phone ringing. It was loud and she was drifting off somewhere far within her own thoughts. She pulled out her phone and looked at the caller ID. It was Ha Na.

"Hello"

"Heyyy girly. Are you at home?" Ha Na asked.

Eun Won sighed. She was certain Ha Na would start talking about Jimin. How would she answer the interrogation without him figuring it was him they were talking about?

"Uhm, no. I am out running an errand. Why?"

Ha Na mumbled something she quite couldn't make out.

"Could you please repeat that? I can't hear you when you are mumbling. We have talked about this several times already"

She couldn't see her friend but knew her good enough to know that she was rolling her eyes at this exact moment. "Don't roll your eyes at me missy"
