Ch 3
"It's a little messy, I'm sorry, I hope you don't mind too much. I should've cleaned before the party but I didn't think anyone would come over," Yoosung stuttered as he tried to unlock the door with shaky hands.
"You're rambling," MC giggled, standing behind Yoosung with her arm around his waist.
"I'm sorry, I'm just nervous. I've never had a girl spend the night before." he admitted, opening the door.
"Not even Rika?" MC asked, following him inside. "Aw Yoosung! I love your apartment, it's so cute!"
Yoosung blushed at her words. "Th-thank you! You really like it?"
"Very much so" she smiled, moving to stand in front of him and wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Thank you… And no, Rika never spent the night. But this is different… What if the other members think were… doing something?"
MC hummed and brought her hands down to his chest. "And if they do?" she raised her eyebrows and started undoing his tie. "It doesn't matter what they thing sweetie, we're not. And even if we were it's none of their business. They're just jealous always," she teased, running the tie through her hand and then moving to push his jacket off of his shoulders.
"MC…" Yoosung whispered, grabbing her waist and holding her tightly against him. "Never leave me, okay? I don't want anyone to try and take you away from me. I want you to be mine forever."
"Forever," MC whispered back, leaning on her toes and kissing his forehead. "Hey, Yoosung? Could I maybe borrow some pajamas?"
"Oh, yeah! I would've stopped by the apartment so you could get pajamas but I don't know where it is…" he trailed off making her laugh. "I'll go grab you something!" he grinned and kissed her lightly before going into the bedroom.
He returned a few minutes later with a turquoise cotton T-shirt and a pair of black basket ball shorts. "Are these okay?"
"Perfect," MC smiled, taking the clothes from him and walking into bathroom to change, closing the door being her. "Ummmm, Yoosung?" she called, opening the door slightly to stick her head out.
"Yeah?"
"Could you… Umm…. Maybe… Help me…Ummm… Unzip my dress?" MC stuttered, feeling embarrassed as Yoosung's face became a bright shade of red.
"Oh… umm… sure…!" he answered, hesitantly walking towards the bathroom.
MC turned around and pulled her hair to the side. Yoosung's hands shook as he reached up for to the top of her dress. His fingertips brushed against the nape of her neck and made her shiver. He slowly pulled the zipper down and the dress slid off her shoulders and hung loosely around her hips. She used her hands to cover her bare chest, and turned around slightly so she could look at him.
"Thank you," she whispered. She felt vulnerable and exposed, his eyes searched her body and his mouth was slightly agape.
"You're so beautiful," he whispered, his hands trailing lightly around her waist. She closed her eyes, relaxing under the feeling of his fingertips dancing along her bare skin.
"Yoosung," she sighed his name peacefully, she couldn't help but want more of his touch.
He leaned down and pressed his lips against her shoulder, kissing it gently. "I should go wait for you in the living room," he whispered against her skin, his breathe making her shiver again. He took a step back and looked her over once more before walking out to the living room.
"Fuck…" MC muttered under her breathe as she closed the door. She pulled his t-shirt on and mentally chastised herself for wearing a dress that she couldn't wear a bra with. After she finished changing and hung her dress on the hook on the back of the door she walked back to the living room. When she saw Yoosung playing LOLOL on the couch she couldn't help but chuckle to herself which made him look up and smile.
"Hey, handsome," she said playfully as she walked over and sat down next to him on the couch. He was still in his clothes from the party, but the first few buttons of his shirt were undone. she leaned her head against his shoulder, "Teach me how to play?"
In less than a second Yoosung began explaining the objective of the game and showing her the controls. MC had a bit of trouble catching all of it, partially because of how quickly he talked and partially because he was just so cute and excited it was distracting. "Make sense?" he asked suddenly.
"Um yeah!" MC lied, it couldn't be that hard, right?
"Here, you can try while I go change," he smiled and handed her his laptop before leaving to change.
MC started at the screen in utter confusion and attempted to imitate what she saw Yoosung too. Her hands pressed the control at random. "Ummm Yoosung? I think I died…." she called, frowning at the computer screen.
Yoosung laughed as he walked into the living room wearing only pajama pants, making MC blush slightly at the sight of him. He leaned over the back of the couch and reached his arms around her and quickly tapped at the keyboard. "There you go," he whispered as her character reappeared on the screen. "You didn't die, you just got kinda… lost I guess?"
MC laughed at his confused tone, "maybe I should just watch you play for now?"
He grinned and kissed her on the cheek before sitting next to her again and pulling the laptop back onto his lap. She leaned her head against him and wrapped one of her arms around his waist, enjoying the feeling of his bare skin.
After about an hour MC was having trouble keeping her eyes open. Thankfully Yoosung noticed and closed his laptop and placed in on the table. "We should get you to bed, MC. You had a long day," he said and she nodded sleepily in agreement. "C'mon I'll tuck you in"
"You're not gonna sleep with me?" MC whined as Yoosung took her hand and gently pulled her off the couch.
"I'll sleep on the couch," he smiled innocently, "I want you to be comfortable"
"I'd be more comfortable if you slept in the bed with me," MC hummed as she sat down on the bed, still holding onto his hand.
"I don't know…" he said quietly, looking away. She could tell he was having trouble denying her.
"Please?" she whined, giving him her best puppy dog eyes. Yoosung's resistance visibly broke as he looked at her.
"Ugh! Don't do that! You look so cute, I can't say no to you"
MC giggled and pulled him down onto the bed next to her. "Then don't" she smiled, feeling proud of herself. "You have school tomorrow, right?" she asked turning on her side so she was facing nodded and began to say something but stopped himself. "What's wrong?" she asked.
He sighed and wrapped his arm around her waist. "Do you have to go to Jumin's office tomorrow?" he wined quietly, not making eye contact.
"I think I do," MC giggled, reaching up to play with his hair. "Why? You don't want me to?"
"I just don't like the idea of you being alone with him, or honestly any guy other than me. I guess it makes me feel… jealous." he admitted sheepishly.
"I'm not really going to be alone with him," MC responded quietly, "I'll just be in his office, and it's not like he even like me anyways. I'm honestly surprised he asked me to come to his office, well… told me to" She looked at him carefully for a moment before kissing him, slowly and gently. "I'm yours, okay?" she whispered once they pulled back.
"Okay," Yoosung whispered in response, smiling softly. He reached over to turn off the light before laying down again "Hey, MC?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you"
MC smiled and curled up against his chest, his arms wrapping around her protectively. "I love you too"
"Good morning, beautiful" Yoosung whispered in her ear as he kneeled down next to the bed. His fingertips brushed her hair out of her face as she mumbled and blinked her eyes open. "I need to leave for school, okay sweetie?"
"Okay," MC mumbled and placed her hand onto of his.
"There's breakfast on the stove for you if your hungry. I hope you like it, I tried my best…" he trailed off looking a little insecure.
"I'd like anything you make, I'm sure it's amazing," she giggled.
"Thank you," Yoosung blushed, "Um, MC? Will you be here when I get back?"
MC thought for a moment, "I don't know… I need to go to Jumin's office but that shouldn't take long, but I'm not sure if I should come back here or go to the apartment"
"I'd like if you came back here," Yoosung admitted, looking down shyly.
"Okay," MC laughed, "I'll come back here, I'll just have to stop by the apartment to get some stuff." Yoosung grinned and told her he had to leave so her wouldn't be late. He kissed her quickly and began walking out of the room.
"Hey, babe?" MC called, feeling accomplished when his cheeks turned pink. "Think of me today"
"Of course," Yoosung smiled widely. "Think of me too, I don't want anyone to steal you away"
"Never," MC reassured, smiling as she saw him leave. She got out of bed and found her phone, dialing Jaehee's number as she walked to the kitchen. She saw an omelet waiting for her on the stove. "He's so cute," she whispered to herself.
"This is Jaehee Kang, Director Jumin Han's assistant, how may I help you?" Jaehee answered after the first ring.
"Hey Jaehee! You picked up quickly, is that always how you answer your cell phone though?" MC asked playfully.
"Ah, MC! Yes, I've grown use to it," Jaehee sighed making MC frown. "How are you?"
"I'm good! I actually wanted to ask your advice. I need to go into Jumin's office today but I'm at Yoosung's house so I'm wearing his clothes but I don't think Jumin will be very happy if I show up dressed like this… So what do you suggest I wear?"
"I'm glad you called me, Mr. Han would throw a fit if you showed up to the office like that. How about I send Driver Kim over and he'll take you to your apartment so you can change and then bring you here?" Jaehee suggested.
"Are you sure?" MC asked, slightly taken off guard. "I'm sure Driver Kim has better things to do then drive me to my apartment, and what if Jumin needs him?"
"Mr. Han has a meeting with his father this morning so he won't be needing him, don't worry. Will you be ready to be picked up in 30 minutes?"
"Yeah! Thank you so much, Jaehee. I really appreciate it," MC said as she finished her omelet and placed the plate in the sink.
"You don't need to thank me, I'm only doing my job," Jaehee paused, "but I do appreciate the compliment. You're very kind, MC. I'll see you this afternoon."
"See you then! Goodbye, Jaehee" MC said brightly. She could hear Jaehee giggle before she hung up the phone. She was glad she was able to make her smile.
MC decided to wash the dishes in the sink and make the bed. She considered changing out of Yoosung's clothes but didn't want to change back into her party dress so she sat on the couch and checked the RFA chats to pass time.
No one else was online but Zen and Seven had a conversation that morning about the party. She was glad everyone enjoyed it and appreciated their encouragement and support. It was surprisingly difficult gathering guests and replying to emails, she wondered how Jaehee managed to stay sane.
She heard a light knock on the door and opened it to see Driver Kim, "Oh hi!" MC greeted cheerfully as she grabbed her dress and shoes from last night.
"MC, I'm taking you to Rika's apartment first I presume?" he asked in a quiet, formal voice.
"Please, if you don't mind" MC smiled as she followed him out the door and to the car. She was slightly taken aback by his formality, similar to how she felt with Jaehee initially.
The ride was silent but it didn't take long for them to arrive at Rika's apartment. MC wondered how he knew the address but didn't bother questioning it. Once she got into the apartment she changed into a short black pencil skirt, a red blouse, and heels. She pulled her hair into a ponytail and looked herself up and down in the mirror. She felt like she looked too much like Rika and tore the ponytail out, shaking out her hair. She quickly applied mascara, eyeliner, and lipstick before grabbing a few things to take back to Yoosung's with her.
"Would you mind stopping by Yoosung's again on the way? I just need to drop a couple things off." MC asked as she entered the car.
"Not at all, MC" Driver Kim smiled politely.
They stopped by Yoosung's house and then arrived at a tall extravagant building. MC stared up at it in feeling a little overwhelmed. "Umm where am I going?" she asked, trying to sound calm and failing.
"Mr. Han's office is on the 100th floor," Driver Kim replied, trying not to smile at MC's expression.
"Of fucking course," MC muttered under her breathe as she said goodbye to Driver Kim and walked into the building. She took the elevator up to the 100th floor, mentally cursing Jumin for making her come here, she felt very out of place.
The elevator doors opened to reveal a relatively calm open office. She stepped out of the elevator and looked around, not sure where to go. Luckily, Jaehee walked into view, holding a stack of papers. "Jaehee!" MC exclaimed, walking up to and giving her a hug.
"Oh, hi MC," Jaehee smiled, returning the hug awkwardly. "I was just going to Mr. Han's office to drop off paperwork, I'll show you where it is."
"Hey Jaehee," MC stopped as they approached the giant doors that led to Jumin's office, "I can take those papers in for you?"
Jaehee hesitated for a moment. "Would you mind? I just have so much work to do and I don't want to fall behind and-"
"You don't have to explain yourself to me, Jaehee," MC laughed, "I'm not Jumin. And I don't mind at all, it gives me a chance to mess with him a bit."
"Thank you," Jaehee smiled gratefully as she handed her the paperwork, "Oh, but, MC?" MC looked up. "Please don't get me in trouble."
MC laughed again, "I'll be good I promise. Before I go in though I wanted to ask you, how'd I do?" She asked, motioning towards her outfit.
"Well, it's better than wearing Yoosung's clothes," Jaehee said looking her over. "As long as Mr. Han's father doesn't see you I'm sure you'll be fine" she smiled slightly before walking away.
"What's that suppose to mean?" MC whispered in confession. She took a deep breathe and raised her fist to knock on the door.
