[Weak Hero X Reader] Romance 101 [OLD VERSION]

Chocolate

You stood in the middle of the aisle, staring at the variety of chocolates that the grocery store had. There were not only several brands of chocolates but also different of types. There were milk chocolates, dark chocolates, white chocolates, ruby chocolates, raw chocolates, compound chocolates, modeling chocolates, and cocoa powders. Of course you crossed out cocoa powder and modeling chocolate. You had no idea what compound chocolate was, so you ignored it too. 

That narrowed the options a bit, but there were still too many types and too many brands. 'What type of chocolates do vampires like? Ruby chocolate is the closest thing they got to the color of blood, but it's pink not red. The cheesecakes at Cafe Sherlock were made with milk chocolate. But he might be getting tired of milk chocolate,' You decided to grab one of each type of each brand and ended filling the entire shopping basket.

After you paid, you were on your way home. You didn't immediately head all the way home though, and no it was not because you were lost! It was because someone was following you! 

Third Person POV

Jimmy Bae was in a bad mood. He couldn't believe that Yoosun was going to be managed by Jake Ji! Yeah, Jake said that he didn't have to report to him and just to continue doing what he does, but Jake was still a suspicious bastard! Though the meeting was a few days ago, he was still pissed.

When Jimmy spotted a familiar Eunjang student, he decided that he'd beat her up. 'She's one of Ben Park's friends, right? I'll teach her a lesson for messing with Yoosun! Ben Park isn't here to protect her!' 

[Your Name] stopped in the middle of the empty street and set her shopping bags on the sidewalk. Without even saying anything to verbally acknowledge his presence, she threw a knife in his direction.

Jimmy barely managed to dodge in time, though he couldn't dodge fully. The blade cut his cheek. Thinking that she was now unarmed, he charged. "Not so tough without your knives now, huh!?"

But she didn't need a knife to beat someone of Jimmy's level. She had only used knives in the previous battles because it would be faster. The knife she had thrown at Jimmy was a warning and a chance for him to back off. [Your Name] quickly turned and slammed a fist into Jimmy's face. She kicked upwards, hitting his chin and then brought her foot down onto the top of his head. She delivered multiple consecutive blows to his abdomen.

Once Jimmy was down, the girl picked up the knife she had thrown, grabbed her shopping bags filled with chocolates, and left.

Jimmy Bae regained conscious and the first sight was Jack Kang's concerned face. "Jimmy, what happened!?"

'What?' He sat up and put a hand to his stomach, grimacing in pain. He put a hand to his cheek and saw the blood. 'I lost!?' He clenched a fist. "I'm fine!" 'First Ben Park and now that no-name bitch!?' He needed to train. He needed to get stronger. Then, he'd be able to crush them both and even surpass Donald Na!

Your POV

When you arrived at your apartment, you realized something. 'If I give all of this to Vampire Boy, he'll have to lug it around the entire school day. If he leaves them in his car, it'll probably melt,' You took each type of chocolate of the most expensive brand and shoved them into your refrigerator. 'Now...what to do with the rest of these chocolate bars?' You decided to ask Jake and Kenny if they wanted any.

You located Jake and Kenny's address on your phone's map. You were about to head out but bumped into Alistair. "Where you heading?" Alistair inquired.

"To my brothers' house," You replied. 

"You suck at directions," Alistair bluntly told you.

"Shut up!" You snapped. 'I am amazing at directions! It's just that Korea is so confusing!' 

"I can call Damien to drive you," He offered.

You stared at him. "Did you hire him as your personal chauffeur or something?" 'Vampire Boy isn't desperate for money since he wears expensive brands. There's no way he's actually Alistair's chauffeur,'

"Whenever I ask him if he has time to drive you to someplace, he cancels whatever he has next to drive you," Alistair claimed. "Remember when he drove you to the theater? He ended up being late for a for a meeting with a client,"

"Client? Does he have his own business or something?"

"Or something," Alistair grinned. "I'm telling you, the two of you should just date already,"

"No," You were about to leave but he grabbed your hand.

"Let's be honest, [Your Name], the chocolates will be melted by the time you get there,"

You wanted to tell him that he was wrong, but you knew he had a point. You didn't want to disappoint Jake or Kenny by showing up with melted chocolate and you didn't want to bother them by having them come over to your apartment. "How did you know he was late to a meeting with a client?"

Alistair didn't immediately answered and instead opted to avoid eye contact. "He...told me..."

'Bullshit!' "You hacked into his phone and listened in on his conversation!" 'Why am I getting so defensive over Vampire Boy? This isn't the first time he's done this,'

Third Person POV

"I wanted to ensure that he was not actually a creep!" Alistair claimed. 'He isn't a pervert or a sexual predator, but he does do some shady business. Well, it's not that bad. He hasn't killed anyone,'

"And is he a creep?"

"No!" Alistair denied. 'I wouldn't call him a creep but he is a criminal. Bribery, fraud, assault...they are all technically crimes,' "Look, I don't have a car—"

"You have a shitload of money. You could have rented one or even just bought one,"

"Hey, I have a certain amount for my allowance," Alistair defend. "An amount that's higher than most allowances, but I still have a limit on how much I can spend. Back to the topic, your chocolates will melt,"

"I'll give you some chocolate if you rent me a car,"

'Damn, that is very tempting, but I must refuse! That chocolate looks good...but no! I must get those two together!' "N-No! I refuse!"

[Your Name] decided that walking would be the better option. So, she left.

Alistair dialed up Donald Na's phone. "You wanna give [Your Name] a ride and meet your brother-in-laws?"

"You know that Wifey and I aren't actually dating, right?"

"Yet," Alistair snickered. "But let me warn you," His voice became deadly, a stark contrast to his typical carefree demeanor. "If you hurt her, I'll kill you,"

It wasn't an empty threat. 

Why is this chapter called Chocolate instead of Reader VS Jimmy Bae? Because chocolate is more important than Jimmy.

SPOILER ALERT

Donald won't meet Reader's brothers just yet. I have plans for that in the later chapters to make it more awkward than Donald showing up at the Ji's house.
