Seven

The Roommate

Ever since they played their twenty questions game, Seungyeon found herself noticing every little thing about her roomate.The way he takes his coffee, they way he tucks a pen above his ear every time he composes, the way he smells after taking a shower...

The latter had occured unintentionally the first week of October. Seungyeon had been living in the Penthouse for almost a month and they were finally used to each other' schedules. Jonghyun would always arrive home before Seungyeon, as his rehearsals were in the afternoon, while she would arrive later after filming. More often than not they would eat separately, and instead occasionally catch up over a glass of wine.

But the more Seungyeon found herself developing a... crush on Jonghyun, the more she distanced herself. Not only would it be completely irresponsible of her, but it would entirely inappropriate to even think about dating a man she lived with. And so she spent more time outside of the Penthouse than in. Althought she hated the fact that she was giving up time at home, it was utterly impossible to think straight whenever he's around. And so on the exterior, she returned to her roots --- the quiet, aloof, aegyo-less Gong Seungyeon.

However, on the inside, it was becoming exceptionally hard for her to keep her feelings at bay. And seeing a wet Lee Jonghyun did nothing to help the matter.

Dropping her purse and kicking off her shoes, she walked into her bathroom to draw a bath. Once the temperature was perfectly hot, she shed her clothes, already feeling more relaxed. Hey eyes caught her reflection in the mirror and a blush rose to her cheeks. For a single girl, she was wearing some rather y lingerie. She laughed at herself --- it's not like Jonghyun (or any other man) would be seeing it.

With a sigh, she remembered the honey and vanilla she's be using for her bath. They were in the cupboard in the kitchen's pantry. 

Knowing Jonghyun was at work, Seungyeon didn't think twice about walking across the hall, still clad in her lingerie. His door was closed, as it usually was, but she still cautiously walked to the kitchen. She felt like a little girl again, tip-toeing into her parents room while they were asleep --- afraid to get caught. She had been in the kitchen many times during her stay, but his foreign belongings and masculine smell blanketed the place.

Remembering her rising bathwater, she shook her thoughts of Jonghyun and took the turn l
