❛ ♡ ❜ rooftop pool

@♡ : yuqi s. "they're delicious. But i'm okay with whichever you want to pick," she reassured as she took her seat across the other female, quickly tying her hair up due to the humidity as she nodded in approval at the other's choice. "Sure, sure. you can drink a bit of mine." By picking up the straws stuck in the side of the takeaway container, she handed one to yuqi and poked the other one into the raspberry lemon slushie, quickly slurping it up. "Mhm so good. Try mine."

@♡ : sejeong k. "sejeooooooooooooooooooong," she called out, one of her hands still in the air as the other made her way over. yuqi's grin was wide when sejeong placed the slushies on the table, her nose catching a whiff of mint, and that's where her hand went too. "ooh, damn. they both sound delicious, but ah, i just love mint so much. can i taste a bit of yours later though?"

@♡ : yuqi s. "hey, keep calling out! i can't see well in this glaring sunlight," she called out, trying her best to go towards her voice as much as possible without having to dangerously tip into the pool which was just smacked in the middle of the whole area. as soon as she reached the other, she let out a relieved sigh and placed the slushes on the table, the top part already melted due to the heat. "Ah, one is Watermelon Mint slushie and another is Raspberry lemon slushie. Take your pick!"

@♡ : sejeong k. hearing a voice call out my name, i didn't have to think twice about who it was. "sejeong!" i call out myself, my arm lifting up high in the air to direct you toward me. looking in the opposite direction, i didn't have trouble with the sun, but the sight of your squint surely brought an amused grin to my face. "hey hey, oh, whatchu got?" my attention is immediately drawn to what you're holding, moving the menu aside to make room for the slushies.

@♡ : yuqi s. as soon as i received the message, i headed over to the rooftop pool with two refreshing slushies in a takeaway tray, decked in a simple white graphic tee and a pair of light denim shorts. finding the place was a breeze for me as i stepped inside, my eyes squinting so hard they appeared off as a thin line. "where is she? oh my, the sun. it's harsh. Yuqi nim~ Where are you?" i called out loudly as i tried my best to look carefully without having to bump into things due to my limited vision.

@♡ : sejeong k. when arriving, i seat myself on one of the closest free chairs and leave you a simple message mentioning my whereabouts. I'm wearing simple, comfortable clothes; a pair of shorts and a t-shirt half tucked into it, slightly baggy on my slender frame. i cross my legs under the table and take hold of the menu, eyes drawn to the homemade beverages.

I am getting ready right now. not to seem excited but I can't wait or whatever

　⋆　　⋆　　⋆　

The girl took a long look at her reflection in the mirror, making sure the long hair was brushed, and her lips were painted her favorite nuance of scarlet. Leading her hands up to her ear, she fixed the small pair of pearl earrings while trapping more oxygen in her lungs. For a moment she thought she was ready, but a whole a flock of untamed birds were flying in her stomach, reminding her of what is to come. It took her less than ten minutes to get there, her fist wrapping around the door handle, and her next move was to open the door with the most immense anxiety invading her system. “Hi,” swiftly escaping before she could force her coal orbs to meet the figure she idolizes.

@♡ : kazuha n. text to: little candy crush ??
hope you’re ready for the date, meet me at the rooftop at 6 pm! see you soon :eyes:

—

taking one last glance at the message that had been delivered hours ago, sunwoo turned off his phone and slid it back into his pocket before looking over at the preparation he made for the night. It look a little convincing to get the rooftop reserved for the night and some more to set everything up — mainly due to the nerves built up within him for the evening [if the constant arranging and rearranging had anything to say]. and perhaps he should've asked for some advice from his groupmates, surely they knew more about the dos and don't dos of a first date but alas… there was little to no time to call them now as the time struck near to 6 and sunwoo waited, glancing at the door.

@♡ : chanhee c. he entangles his digits in chanhee’s hair, not hesitating necessarily but it’s obvious he’s a bit nervous. he captures the other’s lips between his in a lip lock, nibbling at the other’s plush lower tier until he finally gives way, allowing him to swipe his tongue in the shorter’s cavern. when the taller pulls away, he does so with a gentle pop, tiers glistening with saliva, cheeks dusted with a rosy blush. “u um, goodnight. and good luck on your paper.”

@♡ : jaehyun l. “Oh my gooood it’s ing Jaeh of Da Boyzzzz~!”

He replied as he was sitting at the lounge area just off from the Pool and Hot-tub, the mini bar right there. He wore Red/Pink Swim Trunks a fan wanted him to wear. A white traditional looking bandanna on his head over his blonde locks.

:D

[]ing wrong man oops…Thx for lmk fhdhdhdhd

@♡ : jaehyun l. "You're calling me cute an awful lot. I might actually start to believe it." As she let a haughty chuckle slip past her lips, she reached up to flip strands of blonde over her shoulder to complete the whole cocky act. Yet as soon as Jaehyun's hand landed on her head, his touch ever so gentle, she was immediately rendered defenseless, cheeks once again taking on a more rosy hue. Although never too touchy with people she just met, Shuhua found she didn't mind his touch too much. Neither when he patted her head not when he caught her fist, inadvertently holding her hand by doing so. "I'm like almost one hundred percent certain that I could make you cry. As for the when..." Pausing, she tilted her head to smile cheekily at him. "I'm going to leave that up to your imagination."
With their drinks being served it gave her enough of an excuse to focus her attention elsewhere than him, not wanting to be caught staring in awe whenever he uttered anything flirtatious. "Well you don't know how big of an appetite I have. Once I start eating nothing's safe. Getting into trouble with my company all the time because of that." Her initial instinct was to move back when suddenly finding herself face to face and much closer to him than planned, yet with her elbow propped onto the table, there wasn't much room for movement if she didn't want to knock anything over. So she remained where she was, eyes lowering to his hand holding the crystal glass, watching the amber liquid slosh around as he moved the glass. "Nah, I'm not that great at this whole thing. I mostly just blurt out things before properly thinking them through. People seem to like it though." Carefully, as to not spill anything, she lifted her own cocktail glass, gently clinking it against his while locking gazes with the male. "Cheers. May this evening lead to infinite possibilities." Following his lead, she brought her glass to her lips, taking a tentative sip of the colorful liquid, nose slightly scrunched as she tasted the slight burn of the alcohol, still not too used to it. "It's good, I think? Just not very used to drinking. Usually when I'm with my unnies I stick to juice and soda."

@♡ : shuhua y. "I'm just kidding. You're too cute, you know?". He lands his palm above her head just to dust a light pat and runs his hand down at the back of her head before resting it just on top of the bar stool's arm rest, amusingly peeking over at her semi-sulky state. Jaehyun jolted as his body reflex is way too fast when a sudden light blow came upon him, hitting his toned abdomen which sends him laughing. HIs palm was quick to catch the female's hand while a smug grin lies on his facade. "Well, look at you. You trying to make me cry? I doubt. With this soft hand of yours? Please, who are you kidding Shua? But maybe later when... care to continue?" He tilts his head to the side while looking straight at her, seemingly curious at what she's bound to say.
The bartender easily mixed and handed over their drinks in no time, knowing how he usually gets prioritized by his favorite barista. He eagerly thanked the male and gets a hold of his cold glass, just tracing the outline of the crystal-like material used. A chortle escapes his mouth while bringing his gaze back to her, "Don't worry, the fries are for sharing. The bowl is pretty big enough for two persons, honestly". Just as when the female leaned closer by propping her chin up, Jaehyun does the same, resting his elbow up on the bar table while shaking his drink a bit, allowing the ice cubes to somehow melt further. "Please, I'm not. Just being all natural here. Going with the flow of things.. you on the other hand seems to be so good at playing this game. While were at it, shall we cheers then?" He bores his dark orbs into her own doe-shaped like marble eyes as he offers his glass for a toast. The blaring sound of the music on the background makes the ambience even more better as they clink their glasses together and finally gets a sip of the mix whiskey on his glass, emitting a contented hum at how good it tasted. "Just the way I like it. How's yours, Shu?"

@♡ : jaehyun l. Eyebrows furrowing into a frown, she pretended to glare at Jaehyun as the corners of her lips dropped, a pout soon predominating her features. "Now you're just making fun of me. Still...thanks for the handkerchief. I'll keep it safe...and sweaty." Unable to keep the act up any longer, she broke into a wide grin, a mischievous spark in her eyes as they so easily fell back into their playful banter. With her head tilted back, she looked up at the male, one brow quirked as if to challenge him. "Really? You promise you won't regret letting me hit you for real?" Following his eyes, she lowered her gaze down to their hands, his looking so much bigger as it easily wrapped around her thin wrist. Tentatively, Shuhua pushed forward, letting her knuckles rest against his abdomen, only using the slightest bit of pressure. "I don't want to make you cry in front of all these people here though. Maybe later when...ah nevermind." Drawing her hand back, she flashed him a toothy grin, purposefully leaving the end of the sentence a mystery.
Not knowing too much about alcoholic drinks, she simply nodded as he put up their order, a coy smile gracing her lips when she made brief eye contact with the bar tender. Though her attention was quick to return to her companion at his next words, onyx eyes once again growing wide in awe. Letting out a chuckle, she shook her head in disbelief. "No...just you is fine. Though I'm definitely going to steal some of your fries." Shifting slightly in her seat, she propped one arm up onto the counter, chin resting in her palm as she quietly looked at the tall male. "You're pretty good at this whole flirting thing. I bet you were a real heartbreaker in high school."

@♡ : shuhua y. He mentally takes note of the nickname offered and simply lets a simper curl on his lips as he looks at her while his eyes remain gazing at her as she speaks. Watching how she neatly and quietly folds his handkerchief back into place and adores her gratefulness. "No problem, Shu. You can actually keep it. Who knows, you might need it next time when you run a long flight of stairs once more?". The mention of the punch earns a series of laugh from him, head shaking to deny the question stated and brushes his hand over her wrist to hold it and brings it close to where his abdomen is. "I mean, sure? Go show me how strong you can punch me. I'm so curious, specially with this lil hand and slim fingers?" He specified firmly as he looks down at her milky white hands, each nail delicately coated with glitters and sparkles which pretty much suits her beautiful hands. Jaehyun draws his attention back to the bar menu and just decides to grab himself a cocktail as well after hearing her response. "A classic, that sounds good. I'll have a Manhattan. It's a blended whiskey". He nods towards her direction before shifting to the male barista in front of them and mentions their orders, even adding up a bowl of fries to munch on. "Any snacks you wanna have? aside from me". Jaehyun playfully retorted with a smug look on his face while just standing closer to the female as most of the bar stools are already occupied with people.

@♡ : jaehyun l. Caught off guard by his action, Shuhua could only stand there wide eyed and perplexed as she let him take care of her, each of his little dabs to her forehead gentle and feathery light as if she was the most precious thing in the world. The blush on her cheeks only turned a hue darker when he ever so gently brushed a strand of hair out of her face, eyes immediately lowering to the ground out of shyness. Until he called her angel, that was. Unable to hold back, she burst into hearty laughter, thoroughly amused by his antics. It took her a good few heartbeats to calm down, not without a giggle slipping past her lips. "Oh please, don't call me angel. That's too much. I'm far from being graceful and gracious. You can call me Shu, though." She held onto the handkerchief when he retracted his hand from the handshake, neatly folding it up to place it into her pocket, making a mental note to wash it later and return it to him next time they met again. "And thank you for the handkerchief, Jae. I'll return it to you soon." Once again, she froze to the spot, not daring to breathe as he leaned closer, his whispered words and warm breath tickling her skin. As if they were sharing secrets, she lowered her voice to match him, her response a hushed, playful whisper. "I mean, we can do it right now if you want? I didn't think you were looking forward to getting punched this badly." Still, she made no attempts to actually hit him, taking the offered seat instead. Crossing her legs, she pulled the knitted cardigan closer around her shoulders, head tilted as she racked her brain for the rather limited knowledge on alcoholic beverages. "I think...I'll take a tequila sunrise. What about you?" Turning her head, she now looked up at Jaehyun, lips curved into an easy smile.

@♡ : shuhua y. Though the female in front of him was sweaty and out of breath from taking the long flight of stairs, he can't deny how stunning she still looks. Her blonde hair definitely compliments her skin tone and more so, her angelic features. Jaehyun was too stunned to speak after his question and so he emits a chuckle after knowing how this girl really rushed her way towards the rooftop just to meet up with him. Good thing he always carries a handkerchief on his pocket and so he reaches forwards carefully to dab away the sweat trickling down her forehead, lifting a few strands of her hair off from her face. "I must say, you're really cute for doing that. I mean.. leg day today then?" He joked playfully and retracts his hand from her, placing the handkerchief against her palm before shaking her it casually, wanting her to take the piece of cloth just in case she might need it still. "Nice to meet you too, angel. I mean, Shuhua. the name's Jaehyun or better known as Hyunjae. You can call me either of the two or just Jae will work too". His pearly whites escape its confines as he grins up at her, mirroring her bright facade. Before he forgets, he squeezes her hand one last time before letting it go in the meantime and places his hand back to his side pocket. He didn't know she'll give off this really light and slightly funny aura knowing how she chose to run her way up, his brows quirked up in surprise at the question and clears his throat, slightly leaning to whisper something in her ear. "Thought you'll ask.. so should i punch you in the gut now?". He lets out a snicker upon remembering that little funny conversation they had earlier from the app and just gestures for them to take the bar stool. "Let's grab some drinks, yes. and ladies first. What's your chosen poison for tonight?" With curious eyes, he leaned his body against the bar counter while looking at the female, waiting for her to decide her choice of drink while he debates if he will get a beer or some shots of tequila for himself.

@♡ : jaehyun l. Of course luck wasn't on her side, she did take a little more time to get ready after all, but still one could always hope, right? Seeing the male approach her, hand lifted for a simple wave, she immediately recognized his face from the small icon she had been seeing flashing up on her phone's screen all afternoon long. Slowly, Shuhua took in a few deep breaths to calm herself down, a nervous smile on her lips. Whether her cheeks were flushed a soft pink from running up the stairs or from feeling slightly embarrassed for getting caught she couldn't quite tell. All she could hope for was that the blush on her cheeks wouldn't be too obvious in the dim lights. "Yeah, I'm alright. It's really silly actually...I didn't want to make you wait too long and I might of forgotten there's a lift so I kind of, maybe, possibly ran up the stairs...?" She let out a soft, melodic chuckle, the smile turning from nervous to cheeky in an instant once she had regained her cool. "Anyways...I'm Shuhua. Nice to finally meet you in person." There was no beauty or grace in the way she quickly lifted her hand to offer a handshake, just simple excitement, albeit a little suppressed in order to not scare him off. Because truth be told, as worried as the blonde was about meeting new people, she had been equally looking forward to meet him, their fun banter in the chat enough to make her decide that he was a fun person to hang out with. "So....would you like to grab some drinks first?"

@♡ : shuhua y. After a few exchange of conversation from the lady he met online, the spontaneous side of Jaehyun got the best of him as he was swayed to agree with their first ever meet up. Nothing bad with it he thought as he had been really busy dealing with schedules here and there that he thinks he deserves a breather even just for tonight. He looks at himself at the mirror after sending his last reply in the chat and puts on his black shirt, black adidas cap, and a pair of sweatpants yet he is also wearing a swim shorts underneath just in case the female will invite him to swim with her in the pool, and of course, slipping on his yeezy white slides to complete the whole look.

It didn't take him too long to reach the pool area after taking the smooth lift inside the building. A few wandering eyes glanced at him as he entered the rooftop with beaming bar music in the background and dancing neon lights which made the whole vibe really fun. He just stood by the bar counter and greeted his favorite barista with a fist bump and a nod, quickly widening his vision as he waits for the female to arrive. He shortly opened his phone just to have one last look on her profile, taking note that she's as white as snow and a blondie. "Shuhua" he whispered to himself before closing his phone and just right after he lift his head up, he noticed this one blonde female who just entered the pool side. Even if she is a few steps away, he can already tell her face is indeed simply goddess-like. As he stares at her, he started walking and waved his hand over her direction, a warm smile gracing his lips in the process yet immediately replaced by a slight worry as he noticed how the female tries so hard to catch her breath. "Hey, you okay? Did you take the long stairway-"

@♡ : jaehyun l. She really meant it when she said that she would need some time to mentally prepare and hype herself up. Being more of a homebody and a true introvert at heart, Shuhua wasn't too used to going out and meet people aside from her members as well a select small group of girl friends. Standing in front of the mirror in her room, she eyed her chosen outfit with a frown, wondering if it would be appropriate to wear or not. It wasn't like she had no fashion sense at all, but she just didn't want to come off weird by overdressing. Or underdressing. He probably wouldn't even care, but still it bothered her mind to no end. In the end, after glancing at the time on her phone screen, she decided to just go with the white crochet knit halter tank top and simple jean shorts on top of a simple white ruffle bikini set, remembering she had worn a similar outfit in their latest music video. Throwing a loose knit thigh length cardigan on top to cover up just a little more, she eventually gave herself a satisfied nod before grabbing her phone and purse to head out.

Hurrying through the mansion towards the staircase that led up to the pool, the young woman basically raced up the steps, only realizing how stupid of an idea it was when she had pushed the door open, standing there out of breath as she scanned the open area for his face. She could only hope that he hadn't arrived yet to give her some time to catch her breath.
