Just A Few Numbers Away

Yoongi ate heartily.

Aen's cooking isn't bad so he wonders why she thinks they're not going to taste good.

"Does it taste good?"

"It does. So stop doubting yourself."

"Okay."

Just as he was about to finish everything up, Aen looks t him like she wants to ask him something but is hesitating to do it.

"What's wrong?"

"Uhmm... can I... ask you something?"

"Of course. What is it?"

"W-what are... we?"

Yoongi looks taken aback.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean... a-are we dating or something? I... I know you said we should take things slow... so... I just... wanna know... what we are..."

Yoongi smiled at Aen and she blushes hard.

"Yes. I did say we should take things slowly but I'm not really subtle with my feelings towards you so I thought you know what we are by now?"

He gently holds Aen's hands that were resting on the table. Then he intertwines them.

"But I guess wrong? I'm sorry for making you confused."

Aen shake's her head.

"No. It's my fault. I'm just dumb."

"No. You're not."

"Yoon-"

"We're dating."

Aen shuts her mouth.

"I did take you out on a date last night."

"It was a date?!"

Aen looks shocked.

"Ohhh... Did you not consider it as a date?"

Yoongi scratches the back of his head with his other hand.

"What?"

"Sorry. Maybe I should have brought you somewhere fancy..."

"No! It was great! You don't need to bring me to those fancy restaurants. We can just eat good food on the street and I'll consider it as a date..."

Aen blushes hard.

"Is that so?"

"Y-yeah... I just... If I knew... I would have drunk less soju..."

"Well, at least, you didn't pass out like last time."

"Yoon!"

Yoongi chuckled lightly.

"Okay.. okay... I won't bring that up again."

"You're such a meanie but..."

"But?"

"T-thanks."

"For what?"

"For taking care of me that time... and last night."

"You don't have to thank me, you know, I would be glad to do anything for you."

And Aen blushes for the nth time that night.
