[Work Husband] || Jaehyun

People referred to you and your coworker, Jaehyun as the 'office couple.' Sure, you did refer to him as your work husband but many people around the office think you two are in an actual relationship. You deny each time but you can't help but wish it were real. He totally was your type and he was the perfect man. You were mindlessly staring at your computer screen when Jaehyun peeks over your cubicle.

"Hey ____!"

"Hey Jaehyun! What's up?"

"You look out of it."

"Yeah, I'm ready to get out of here."

"Well, luckily for you..." He then points at the clock, showing you that the work day is officially over.

"Oh thank goodness. I don't think I could have survived another minute here."

"Do you have any plans besides going straight home?"

"You know me so well but I'm free. Why do you ask?"

"I was wondering if you wanted to try this new restaurant that just opened up the other day with me?"

"Yeah let's go!"

After you two clocked out, you headed over to the restaurant. You two got a table and looked through the menu. Once you placed your orders, you started up a conversation.

"Do you know that people call you my work husband?"

"Heh, that's funny."

"H-how so?" You mentally curse yourself for stuttering but the man across from you lets out a chuckle.

"Because people say YOU'RE my work s/o as well."

"The whole office must really want us together, huh?"

You took a sip of your water but you nearly spit it out after his response.

"Well, what if I agree with them?"

Your eyes widen and you feel your face warm up.

"Y-you want us to be a couple?"

"It would be nice, yes. Unless you don't like me then that's okay."

"Jung Jaehyun, how could I not like you?"

"You like me?"

You nodded your head, not really trusting your words for the moment. He props his elbow on the table, leaning his head on his head.

"Tell me, _____, what do you like about me?" His dimples poked through and a smirk was resting on his face.

You bit your bottom lip, trying to piece a response together.

"I mean, what's not to like about you? You're the perfect type."

"And you're my perfect type."

You tried your best to glare at him for his reply but a smile broke through. You were about to respond but your food arrived and you both dug in. You two enjoy the food and the topic quickly changed. You talked about stuff that happened at work and made comments about your food.

After finishing your food and paying the bill (which you forced Jaehyun to let you split), you left the restaurant. Jaehyun has driven you home many times before but this time definitely felt different. He pulled up in front of your house and you two sat in silence. You fiddled with your fingers, wondering if you should bring up the first conversation at the restaurant. You decide it's either now or never and you rip the bandage off.

"So Jaehyun, about what we said earlier..."

"Yes?"

"I want to give us a try."

"Really?"

You nodded your head with a big grin.

"Alright then let's make this official. _____, will you my significant other outside of work?"

"Yes, I'll be your significant other outside of work."

You both laughed and he gave you a kiss on the back of your hand.

"Well then, I'll text you when I get home."

"Please do. I'll see you around, work husband." You send him an obnoxious wink and he giggled at your action. You gave him a kiss on the cheek, thanking him for the night. You grab your things and step out the car. You wave goodbye and walk to your front door. Once you're inside, you rush to your nearest window to see him drive off. You lean against the closest surface and let out a dreamy sigh.

"He's really mine." You muttered out loud.

While Jaehyun is driving away, he mutters, "They're finally mine."
