Chapter 15
Y/n pov.
“I’ll leave you to freshen up.” Hyunjin flashed me a half smile as he placed the keys down onto the kitchen counter, dropping himself on the white, pristine sofa. I yawned, nodding as I dragged my feet towards my room. It seems to be a good thing that my bedroom is on the first floor. I threw my phone somewhere on my bed before removing my makeup, taking a quick shower and changing into this. I brushed my wet hair before blowing it dry, grabbed a bottle of lavender scented hand cream to apply it into my hands. I took my phone from my bed and left my room.
However, there was no one in the living room. Hyunjin was most likely in his room. But…which room is his? I looked at the room across me, noticing that the letters “H.H.J” are carved onto the door knob. That should be his initials. I knocked on the door a few times before pushing it open.
I was greeted by the sight of art products lying all over the place. (A/n: Hyunjin’s room idea). “Wowww, I didn’t know you could draw so well.” I said, staring at Hyunjin’s multiple sketches. All of them were drawn in detail, each sketch having its very own meaning and uniqueness.
“It’s just some random doodling, nothing special.” Hyunjin replied as he closed his sketchbook, ears turning pink from my compliment. I stifled a laugh. “And, how do you shower so fast? Yeji takes at least forty five minutes to do her night routine.” Hyunjin continued. I just shrugged and poked the dried up paint on his padlet. “I’ll go take a shower.” He stood up from his floor mat, ruffling my hair making me roll my eyes at him again. He kept all his art supplies and slipped into the bathroom.
I walked out of his room and went to the kitchen for a drink of water. I poured myself a cup of water and leaned against the counter, sipping it slowly. Suddenly, the thunder rumbled as lightning flashed across the dark night sky. I jumped as my heartbeat quickened, making me lose my grip on the glass. The glass dropped and shattered into pieces. “Ah *.” I cursed softly, immediately starting to clear up the mess I created. After a good ten minutes, I finally cleared up all the glass pieces. I threw the shattered pieces of glass into the bin. Just as I reached to take another glass of water, I noticed my thumb has blood oozing out from a cut. I hastily wrapped it in a tissue and drank my water before going back to Hyunjin’s room.
Just then the bathroom door opened revealing Hyunjin, who just came out from the shower. His dark hair was plastered across his forehead messily, water dripping down his chest, his toned abs displayed and only a towel wrapped around his waist. Ohmygwad- I gulped.
Hyunjin smirked as he took several steps closer to me, “Enjoying the view, baby~”
My face became bright crimson red. “N-no.” I stuttered out as I looked to my toes, feeling embarrassed and awkward. This *… Why can’t he stop teasing me? We’ve literally only known each other for a day! I bit my inner cheek.
“Hmmm? Really? Because I don’t believe you.” He teased as he titled my chin upwards with his long slender fingers making us make eye contact. Urghhh…Hwang Hyunjin… I smacked his hand away.
“Yah! *, just go wear your clothes!” I yelled at him, my face even more red than a tomato. I pulled my hair back to the side of my face. He walked closer as I stepped backwards, until I felt my back meet the wall. I immediately moved to the side. But before I could do that, Hyunjin caged me between his arms and pinned me against the wall, wearing his usual signature smirk. I glared at him and used all my strength and pushed him off me, still in a blushing mess, kicking him towards the toilet. He shrugged half-heartedly with a mischievous grin still present on his face.
Hyunjin disappeared into the bathroom again with his clothes. I blew out a breath and cupped my face with my hands as I thought, “Y/n calm down. It’ll be okay after this.” Neither did I know, this is not the last of the list of ‘Embarrassing things that happened to me tonight.’
Hyunjin’s pov.
I chuckled lightly at Y/n’s reaction. I’m hundred percent sure by now that teasing her would be my new hobby. In a flash, I changed into my clothes and went out of the bathroom.
I plopped down on the floor mat beside Y/n. “Are you mad at me or something?” I asked her when she ignored my presence.
“Cause you keep teasing me. Hwang, it’s getting annoying.” She narrowed her eyes. I burst into laughter at her cute reaction. “Dude! I’m being serious!” Y/n smacked my arm.
“Well, it isn’t my fault that you came in without knocking.” I replied. She huffed, knowing that I had a point. “What happened to your thumb?” I continued worriedly, upon noticing the tissue wrapped around her finger.
“I dropped the glass onto the floor and one of the broken pieces cut me. It isn’t a big deal.” She hummed, pulling the sleeve of her ivory hoodie to cover her hands.
“Still, you have to bandage it properly. It isn’t some superficial paper cut which you can ignore.” I answered, taking the first aid box from the nearby shelf.
Y/n pov.
“Really, it isn’t a big deal.” I insisted. Hyunjin ignored me and removed the tissue stained with blood from my thumb and used a wet wipe to wipe the cut clean before putting some cream and the plaster on. Okay, I admit. This drama lama is actually quite caring and gentle.
“All done.” He announced, throwing all the tissue into the nearby bin. I fiddled with the plaster a little.
“Thanks.” I murmured, Hyunjin just gave me a sweet smile.
Click Clack. What was that? I bolted up to my feet upon hearing the sound. I stared at Hyunjin’s door.
“Hey, everything okay?” Hyunjin rubbed my shoulder. I made a ‘shhh’ sign which he immediately understood.
Click Clack. Here it is again. I’m pretty sure I did not mishear it this time.
“Hyunjin… did you hear that?” I whispered, pulling him by his hand closer to the door. He gave me a ‘Huh’ look, clearly not understanding what I was saying.
Click clack click clack click clack. Footsteps. I made eye contact with Hyunjin. His eyes widened as he nodded. We shared a nervous smile.
“Y/n… I think there's an intruder…”
