@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin A soft laugh left his lips at her comment. "Fine- although you know how I like it when you call me oppa too, so don't go too hard on looking for a nickname, unless you really want to." Hoseok gave her a small grin, glancing back at the screen as he watched the movie, so far nothing really scary to begin with. "Thanks for the invite, will do. Though you'll probably get sick of seeing my face so much, after all you're the closest person I've seen here so far... so yeah, I'll be bothering you a lot." He then gives her a small squeeze, smiling once more.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "Might get used to the nickname? Oh please don't. I'm sure I could come up with a far better nickname. Don't get used to the bad ones." Hyejin let out a light laugh and shook her head before resting her head back against Hoseok's shoulder. She was surprised-- touched but surprised-- when Hoseok offered to spend the majority of the night with her. "That is very sweet of you to offer, oppa. I.. greatly appreciate that. I don't want to hog all of your time but I wouldn't mind the company. You're welcome to stay as long as you'd like."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hoseok let out a soft chuckle, an arm embracing Hyejin's shoulders as he gets comfortable on the couch, slightly snuggling against her. "Muscle man, hm? I might get used to that." He gives her a cheeky grin before looking at the tv, biting back another laugh. "Don't worry, if anything we can spend the night together for as long as you wish, I got nothing else to do anyways." Hoseok then reached for some of the popcorn, eating it happily as the movie begins.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok Hyejin turned her head to look over at Hoseok and gave him a soft smile. "It's definitely a comfort to have you hear. I mean, if anyone could beat up a possessed doll, I think it would be you, Muscle Man." Picking up the throw blanket from the arm of the couch, she unfurled it and used it to cover their bodies. Eyes trained on the movie, Hyejin leaned against Hoseok and rested her head on his shoulder. "I swear, if this movie gives me nightmares, you're going to hear about it-- literally. I will come next door and hound you about them. Why I let you convince me of this, I'll never be sure." She quieted as the movie began and brought the popcorn into her lap so it would be easier for both of them to grab.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hosoke caught a glimpse of her cheeks becoming red - but he didn't say anything though, because he knew she'd feel embarrassed, or at least he thought so, but he simply found it adorable. He then reached for some of the popcorn, this time looking at Hyejin as she spoke. "I did mean that, no worries." He gave her a playful wink as he glanced back at the tv, the title of the movie made him hum softly. "I wanted to watch this one actually... but ended up too late to see in the theaters." Hoseok then gave her shoulder a light bump with his own. "Don't worries, if anything... I'm here- if you do consider that a comfort"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok Hyejin could feel her cheeks redden at Hoseok's 'I wouldn't mind that,' comment in regards to her being in his lap. His additional suggestion of cuddling didn't help the matters. "I, uh," she started to say, feeling dry. "Sure, scary is fine." She flipped through the screens until she found the scary movies, selecting one about a nanny and a possessed doll. Pressing play, she picked up her coke and took a long sip, hoping that ht would calm her nerves. "I hope you meant that," she said, trying to keep things light, "because this movie is supposed to be really scary." She settled back into the couch and lightly leaned against the male's shoulder.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hoseok obviously didn't hold back his smile - glad to hear that she would like to specially go with him to the beach. He nodded a few times to her words, agreeing completely to them. In fact, having her company seemed to be something that he was already enjoying /a lot/. "Deal then, we can plan that trip later. And... " He let out a small laugh. "... I wouldn't mind that, besides cuddling during scary movies seems exactly like the right thing to do- so if you're really up to scary, I'm in too." Hoseok gave off his bright smile, getting a bit more comfortable on the couch as he glanced at the tv.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "That would be amazing, oppa. I haven't been to the beach in forever. To be able to go would be awesome, but to be able to go with you is what would make it amazing. We should go real soon if we're both able to." Settling into the softness of the cushions of the couch, she picked a few pieces of popcorn and popped them in , chewing mindfully. "It's okay-- you look cute with your hair like this. I just didn't want you to get water in your eyes or anything. As for movies.. Well, we can definitely watch a scary movie but you better be prepared for me to end up in your lap. I don't do well with scary movies, because.. well.. they're scary."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hoseok nodded in agreement, thinking how hard it is to get up during the winter - but also how great it becomes whenever he works out in colder weathers. "Maybe we could find a pool around here or even schedule a trip to the beach, what do you say?" He suggests as he still has his gaze on her, at Hyejin's actions though, he can't help but to feel slightly taken aback - shy, even. But he says nothing about it, just looking over at the TV instead. "Yeah... I should've taken care of it before coming here..." He lets out a soft chuckle, placing the bowl of popcorn on the center table nearby the couch. "Hm... what are you into? I'm fine with anything, even horror... as long as there's no ghost stuff." Hoseok chuckled once more, shaking his head slightly as he remembered his last experience watching such type of movie.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "Not yet, but I'm sure that our summer will be wicked once it starts up and going. I love the summer, but sometimes I hate how hot it gets." She settled down onto the couch beside Hoseok, laughing softly when she realized that some of his hair was nearly in his eyes. "Aye, look at your hair, oppa. You can barely see." Her fingers gently brushed the wet strands to the side, sweeping them away from the male's eyes. Her attention turned to the popcorn when the bowl was waved. "Yeah, that should be plenty, oppa. Now, what movie were you wanting to watch? I pulled up Netflix so we could look at what was streaming."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hoseok took a quick shower and changed into another pair of black shorts, assuming he should be the most comfortable for a movie day, he put on a simple black shirt - by now accepting the fact that most of his casual clothes are black, with his hair slightly wet, some strands nearly reaching his eyes, he finally headed back to Hyejin's apartment. He felt more than glad to see her here, he honestly thought he would be alone in this building for at least three or four days before someone else showed up. Upon seeing her smile as he reached her apartment, he grinned, popcorn in one of his hands. "I surely do and I'm glad it's not too hot, too." He then made his way in and towards the couch, but before he sat down, he slightly waved the bowl of popcorn. "Will this be enough?"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok Hyejin took the two drinks to the living room and set them on the coffee table. She then disappeared into her room and changed into a pair of soft shorts and a t-shirt before freshening up. Moving had made her feel gross, so the least she could do to make herself feel better was change clothes and reapply deodorant. After spritzing a little bit of perfume on her neck and the soft inner skin of her wrists, she made her way back out to the living room and got the TV set up with Netflix. When Hoseok came back, she greeted him with a smile. "Hey there. Do you feel better now that you're in fresh clothes? I know I sure do."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hoseok got off the wall, stopping by the counter and resting an arm onto it instead as he watched her. "Hm... not often, I mean- when I used to live at the dorm, maybe, we would have some soju whenever we got a day off." He sighs softly as he remembers the good times - although he still gets to see his, now friends, often. Hoseok took a moment to look down at his slightly sweated clothes, laughing softly as he nodded. "I almost forgot about that- I'll take a five minute shower and come back with the popcorn, then." With a big smile tugging on his lips, he takes the glass, making a toast before sipping the coke. "I shall save this for the popcorn though, so I'll go now. Don't miss me too much, ay?" Hoseok winks, chuckling at his own antics before turning on his heel to head to his place.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok Hyejin fixed her hair, pulling it back and up into a low ponytail while she was at it. "Cola? Coming right up." She placed each glass, one at a time, under the ice dispenser and then set them on the counter while she got two cans of Coke out of her fridge. "Oh?" She mused as she opened a can. "Maybe not an alcoholic but it does make it sound like you drink a lot. Do you? Drink a lot I mean?" She finished filling the glasses and put the now empty cans in a bag for recycling. "Sure, we can watch a movie-- and popcorn would be great. I imagine you also might want to change; you said you just finished a run. I'll get the tv set up while you run next door."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin "We have a deal, then." Hoseok grinned as he walked over to her, playfully ruffling her hair before leaning against the closest wall, humming at her suggestions. "We can have some cola, maybe? It's been a while since I last drank it and living nearby me, that might change- and I just sounded like an alcoholic." He laughs softly, shaking his head to himself. "Anyways... will we watch any movies now? I can get us some popcorn at my place."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "Might or might not like the reactions I get? Well now I'm awful curious about them!" Hyejin laughed goodnaturedly and shook her head, heading towards the kitchen to fetch their drinks. She knelt to open a box that sat against the lower cabinets on the floor, pulling out two glasses and setting them on the cabinet. "Alright, fair, I won't hold you responsible for what my charms cause you to do. But I won't take responsibility either, so nyehhh." She stuck her tongue out playfully. "I do have soju. Do you want that now, or do you wanna have some water or cola first? I have to admit, I don't have a very high alcohol tolerance."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin This time he didn't hold back his laugh as he made his way towards the direction she motioned for, placing the boxes nearby a few others there. "You might or might not like the reactions you get, but I'm totally in for it, though the consequences are up to you- I shall say that I'll not see myself responsible for my acts." Hoseok looked back at her, a playful smirk at the corner of his lips as he approached her, now standing a few feet away. "And that's exactly what I feel like, glad I have some company now. Hmm... for drinks, what do you say we start light and end up our night with a little alcohol, do you have any soju? It's been a while since I last had some just for fun and I feel you'd be an amazing company for that too."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lalisa manoban SYS_ADMIN: user LALISA MANOBAN welcome to your new home.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "You shouldn't have told me you were weak, oppa. Now I'm going to want to use alllll of my charms on you just to see what kind of reaction I can get out of you." She stuck her tongue out playfully at him and nudged her head towards the inside to silently invite him in. "I know what you mean. It's always more fun to see movies with other people because then you get their reactions and after you can talk about it and.. I don't know. It's always a much more pleasant experience for me." Humming softly, Hyejin followed the male into the apartment and gestured to the wall that led into the apartment. "Right there is fine. I can move them where they need to go later. As for drinks, I have water, Coke, Sprite, juice, alcohol-- the standard fair. What's your fancy?"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Hoseok shook his head at her wink, biting back a smile and playfully making a face instead. "Hey, don't pull out your charms on me, I'm quite weak~" Although as soon as he said so, he winked back at her, nodding a couple of times at her suggestion. "Let's do that, yes, there is a few movies I want to watch, but alone is just.. boring?" Hoseok shrugged slightly, leaning down to take a hold of the boxes once more, looking up at her slim - yet well built - figure leaning against the door. "Where can I put these? And also, what do you have to drink? I have some snacks at my place in case we need some."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "Well, you are right about that. It was quite lucky to run into you here. It's always nice to run into a friendly face." Hyejin took a small sip of his water and continued up the stairs beside Hoseok. Her eyes widened when he said where he lived. "Really?? That's amazing. That'll make it much easier to come over and borrow a cup of sugar." She looked up at the male and winked. When they arrived at her apartment, she punched in the door code and opened it wide, leaning back against it. "Well, I don't really need help with unpacking but... would you like to come in for a drink? It's the least I can do for you helping me bring up my boxes. My tv is set up too. We could watch a movie or something if you'd like? Catch up?"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin "Well... in a way you were lucky indeed, I mean, because I found you here." Hoseok grinned, almost feeling like a knight in shining armor, but of course he dismissed saying that aloud and just proceed to deny her request of helping him out with the boxes, knowing exactly where her apartment is at, because the biggest coincidence just happened to be that: "Actually my apartment is right beside yours. Guess we're truly neighbors now." He chuckled softly, glancing back at her briefly before paying attention to his steps, soon - and gladly - reaching the fourth floor. Hoseok carefully placed the boxes down on the floor as soon as he stopped in front of the door that held the numbers 426 on it, slightly stretching the muscles on his arms, that could easily be seen through his sleeveless black shirt. It ended up being easier than he thought it'd be, probably because there was just one floor left. "Here we are, need any help with unpacking and settling?"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok "It is quite the coincidence, huh? That we both end up here in the same building." Hyejin straightened and laughed goodnaturedly at Hoseok's playful teasing. "You know, I was thinking the same thing: that I am perhaps the luckiest person here in this building because of when I chose to move in. It's like I won the lottery." She shook her head before taking the water bottle that was offered to her, quick to protest when she saw Hoseok pick up both boxes. "Oppa, here, let me carry one, at least. You don't need to break your back for me. It's just one last flight. I'm on the fourth floor-- apartment 426." When the male didn't give into her protests, Hyejin followed close beside him just in case he changed his mind and needed her to take one of the boxes. "How about you? What floor are you on?"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin A small gasp left Hoseok's lips when he noticed who it is, his cheeks gaining a light shade of pink, ashamed that he hadn't recognized - such beauty - as soon as he saw her. "Hyejin? Really? I can't believe you're here also- even more at the same building as mine." He laughs softly, quickly climbing a few more steps, not noticing that they would end up too close once she stands up - which did happen. His eyes briefly caught a glimpse of her body and he unintentionally cleared his throat, slightly bowing back to drift off his attention to somewhere else - the boxes. Yes, they are definitely worthy of his attention too. "Same here... actually I think I'm the only one in this building... and of course I wouldn't, I'm always glad to help, besides I can imagine the trouble it must be to move in exactly when the elevator is broken, lucky, aren't you?" His last words carry a playful teasing tone. "Here, take this." Hoseok hands over his half full bottle of water, leaning down to pick up the two boxes. "Where are we going~?"

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok Hyejin lifted her head at the sound of footsteps and the familiar voice, brushing her hair back from her face with her hand. She smiled, happy to see a familiar face. "Hoseok oppa, hey." She kept her voice light and her tone was happy despite being tired as all get out. She stood, wiping her hands quickly on the sides of her short ripped denim shorts and adjusted the hem of her tank top before dipping her head in a polite greeting towards the older male. "I didn't think I'd see a face that I knew around here-- or at least so soon." She blushed at his offer to help and looked over at her two boxes. "I.. well, if you don't mind, I would not be opposed to accepting it. Lugging them this far has made me too tired to be stubborn," she said, a silvery laugh following her words.

@ᵘˢᵉʳ ahn hyejin Even though Hoseok liked to brag - in his mind, just a little - about his muscles and his workout routine, he was glad that he managed to move just a day before the elevator broke. He is strong, but having to move at least ten boxes upstairs would surely be hard and that's exactly what went through his head - again - when he reached the third flight, a slim figure sitting there with two boxes by her side. Hoseok didn't even have to ask what she was doing there, by the tired look on her face, at any other place, he would've assumed that she just ran about 10km, which he feels like it would be easier compared to move in using the stairs. "Hm... hey? Need a hand there? I also have some water here, just came back from a quick run."

@ᵘˢᵉʳ lee hoseok The last two boxes. The last two boxes. That was the mantra that Hyejin kept repeating in her head as she took the stairs, balancing the two boxes the best she could. She was already halfway up her third flight of stairs and feeling like she was dying. Of course, /of/ /course/, the day she moved in the elevator was undergoing maintenance. She probably would have felt better had she only taken one box up this round, but truthfully she was real tired of going up and down the stairs. Her thighs and would be feeling this workout tomorrow. Going up two more steps, she caved and sat the boxes down and then sat down at the top of the landing, dabbing at the sweat on her forehead with the back of her forearm. Hoof... just one more flight and she'd be in her apartment. If only she could get the energy to get up.
