Finally, your shift ended and you were in the locker area fixing your hair, getting excited to get out of there.

As you were sitting there, you suddenly remembered all that happened today.

Starting with 'The Prince' inviting you to meet him. And then one by one, you recalled how each one of the guys you met today told you to meet at Jamsil Park, 7 PM.

Well, except for the crazy one who landed onto you.

You pulled out your phone and checked if there's any event happening at Jamsil Park today but nothing popped out of the internet search.

After a few minutes, you decided to just go and see for yourself. It's not like you have any choice and anywhere else to go to anyway. And the day wouldn't get worse than now, could it?

As you stepped out of the café, the sky was pierced by lightning and rain suddenly poured down.

Yeah, you just can't take any break. You are now just standing there pouting at the sky, sighing deep when someone approached you.

"Where are you headed?" the guy asked.

You looked up and the guy slowly raised his umbrella to reveal his face. You recognize him as one of the regulars in the café.

"O! Mocha guy!" you exclaimed, pointing at him.

'Mocha guy' was the name you dubbed him with your co-workers. He always orders mocha and he has one of the sweetest smiles, like mocha with matching deep dimples.

You suddenly realized that you revealed the nickname you and your co-workers gave him and you had to shut your mouth in embarrassment.

He snickered and looked down briefly before looking back up to your eyes again.

"My name is Namjoon, and you're Y/N, right? Clumsy waitress?"

"Clumsy waitress???" you huffed.

He laughed out loud at your reaction, "You honestly don't think you're the only ones who have the right to give nicknames, don't you?"

You just looked at him defeated and shifted your weight on your feet standing there still underneath the small roof of the café door avoiding the rain.

"If you're headed in this direction, we can share an umbrella. I'm going to Jamsil Park, anyway." He tells you.

You hesitated at first but peering up the sky and seeing that the rain is not stopping anytime soon, you stepped towards him. He raised the umbrella so you can get inside easily. Your bodies now close to each other and you felt your face blushed as you noticed how good smelling he is.

Now under the umbrella, you tried to put as much space between the two of you, not really wanting to make him feel like you're taking advantage of the situation. However, heaven wouldn't let you.

A sudden thunder frightened you that in a heartbeat, you found yourself pressed beside him. Both your hands clasped on his shirt, face buried on his chest, eyes closed.

He looked at you and grinned, "This is not for free."

You quickly pulled away.

"I'm sorry", you say under your breath. But looked back at him and your eyebrows curled, "What do you mean not for free?"

"This." He gestured to his umbrella. "and this." He gestured to his chest that you just had your face on a few seconds before. He chuckled when he saw your defeated expression.

"Hmm... let's see... how can you repay me?" he made an expression as if thinking hard of something.

"We'll take a detour and I introduce you to my friends first and then afterwards you can go." he finally said.

Seeing that you don't reply, he added, "It wouldn't take long, promise." And then asked, "Deal?"

With not much of a choice at the moment, you just nodded and agreed.


"Deal."
