Red suits you better

I prefer mine in Lace

“Thank you! Come back and tell me how the wedding goes!” I say as a woman wheels her wife-to-be out of the store with last minute dress touch-ups. I stood at the counter with a -what some might find creepy, smile on my face. The two came in here looking so distressed trying to find something to cover up a mistake in one of their wedding gowns, and seeing the joy on their face when I was able to give them what they needed just made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Looking at the clock on the wall, I see that it’s almost 8 o’clock; an hour passed closing time. But it was worth it. Humming happily I switch off the ‘open’ sign and make a quick run through the store, making sure everything was where it should be. Right when I was reaching for the lights however, the phone rang. Quickly I walk over and answer.

“Hello?”

“Hello? Is this Bang Yongguk?” A rather young but familiar voice asked.

“Yes?” I say tiredly.

“Awesome! This is Jongup!” Eh?!

“J-Jongup?” I stutter. “Is everything ok?” Why would he be calling me? At this time no less!

“Yeah everything’s great! But um-are you busy tomorrow?” His voice faltered as he asked the question. It took me a moment to answer; I couldn’t concentrate with my heart trying to burst out of my chest.

“Uh- no, the shop is closed tomorrow. Why?”

“Could you stop by my office tomorrow? There are something’s that I need to discuss with you.” He said with a professional tone, which was a total 180 from before.

“Of course, Jongup. What time?”

“Around ten will be fine.” He says with the same tone.

“Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow then.”

“Oh,” Was that disappointment I hear? “Yes, see you tomorrow Yongguk!” He said happily as he hung up. I stood there for a few minutes, unsure of what just happened really happened.  

Locking up the store, I finally walk to my car. Now if anyone saw me, they’d think me mad. When I got into my car, I put my head in my hands and squealed like someone who just got a date with their life-time crush. 

===============================================================================

Needless to say, I didn’t get much sleep last night. It took me forever to find something comfortable to wear, not to mention I set a bunch of alarms on my phone to make sure I didn’t sleep late and to make sure I had plenty of time to take a shower. Maybe I was over doing this, but I was so nervous I couldn’t help it. I kept reminding myself that this was strictly business, but my heart told me otherwise; and while it has never lead me astray before, it couldn’t be right. Right?

Before I could stop myself, I ended up in front of his modest office building at 9:30. For the next fifteen minutes I sat there trying to calm myself, unfortunately I would drive myself crazy if I sat there any longer. Fixing my simple button-up and jeans, I walk into the building.

I was very confused when I walked in; I expected a serious and tense atmosphere when I walked it. But it was the complete opposite. It felt warm and welcoming. I stood there awkwardly for a minute, unsure of what to do, since the only desk there seated no one.

“Yongguk?” A cheerful voice called behind me. I wasn’t proud of the slight yelp that exited my mouth as I jumped. Behind me stood a short, young, woman with wide brown eyes.

“Yes ma’am?” I cough, trying to keep what dignity I had left.

“Mr. Moon is waiting for you.” She says with a playful smile. “You can follow me, his office is over her.” She says quickly as she walks off.

I have to practically sprint to catch up with her, how does she walk so quickly? Luckily, I stopped right before I could bulldoze into her when she stopped in front of a cream colored door.

Lifting her elegant hand, she knocked. “Mr. Moon? Bang Yongguk is here.” She said with a teasing undertone.

Suddenly there were multiple crashing sounds from behind the door, but it didn’t seem to faze her. She just continued to look at me with a pleasant smile.

Following one more ‘boom’, the door was swung open; revealing a wide eyed and panting Jongup. Seeing him like this, my mind wanted so badly to go in the gutter; however I mentally slapped myself remembering that this was for business purposes.

“Morning Jong-“

“Yongguk!!!! Finally you’re here! Come on!” He exclaimed excitedly as he grabbed my hand. “We have a lot to do today!!!” With that he pulled me enthusiastically into his office.

Looking back, I see the plump woman giggling. “Don’t be too rough with him Mr. Moon~ We need him to be able to walk out of here!” Though the words were innocent enough, an involuntary shiver went up my spine; warning me of a possible alternate meaning.

------------------------------------------------------------

“So…..what did you want to talk about?” I ask as casually as I could. His office reminded me of spider web, it was covered in fabrics, drawings, mannequins of various sizes, and so much more that I couldn’t possibly process all in that one moment.

“Well…”He says letting go of my hand, I couldn’t help but pout at the loss of his warmth. He stands there for a minute, looking at his twittleing thumbs. “I know this is kind of sudden but….I need you to model for me.” Saying this, he looks up at me with hopeful eyes.

“Uh…..” Well, this was unexpected.

“I know kind of out of the blue and I’ve only meet you once but, you see; before I met you I had this wonderful new design in my head. But I couldn’t think of a color scheme for it! It was so frustrating, I was thinking about trashing the whole idea!” He says while furrowing his brows, which made him look so cute, yet so kissable, all in the same moment. “But,” He says looking at me, and his face brightening. “When I saw you, I sensed your passionate and gentle heart; even though I had never met you and suddenly, the colors all but smacked me in the face!” He recollected.

I felt my cheeks heat up, and he continued to speak. “So I wanted the one who inspired me to have the honor of wearing the design! That is….if you want to of course…..” He says looking down again.

Gosh this kid was gonna be the death of me.

“I would be happy to!” I say with a bright smile. Who was I to decline such a heart filled request?

======================================

“Are you okay Yongguk? Do you need some help?” Jongup ask from outside the bathroom door.

“No!!!! I’m fine!!! I-I’ll be out in a minute!!!!!” I practically shout.

I didn’t think this is what he meant when he said he wanted me to model.

Like many of Jongup’s other creations, it was lacey; and a dress. Don’t get me wrong; it was absolutely beautiful, and the colors ranged from scarlet to blush and I felt myself flush when I remembered that he said I helped him with the colors. It had layers of fabric, tool and ribbons that all seemed to come together with long sleeves and a chocker style collar. The dress was complete with a bow in the back and lace trimmed stockings, and he even gave me black platform shoes. But….I couldn’t help but feel self-conscious. I wasn’t cute like all of my customers; I didn’t have the same attitude they possessed whenever I saw them try on his dresses.

 But I knew this meant a lot to him, so shakily I turned the knob and walked out of the bathroom. I looked down as I felt my whole body heat up in embarrassment. I couldn’t help the quickening pace of my heart as no sound came from Jongup. Suddenly his sneakers come into view.

“Yongguk.” He says sternly. “Look up.”

My whole body shivered, feeling the weight of his words. Reluctantly, I look up and gasped as I saw the hungry look in the shorter man’s eyes. He draws closer and backs me up into the bathroom door. Reaching up and putting one hand flat against the door near my face, he caressed my cheek with his other hand. I felt my face grow hotter and my heart speedup so quickly that my lungs just couldn’t keep up. He studied my face for a moment before his hungry eyes locked onto mine and his thumb brushed my bottom lip.

“Red really is your color.” Is all he says before he leans up and claims my awaiting lips.
