Summary: Wonho asked you on a date. Things do not go as planned.
Wonho fidgeted with the thread hanging from his sleeve. He wondered, briefly, if he should cut if off before deciding against it and tucked the thread back into the inside of his shirt sleeve. The thread had not been there when he selected his outfit for today. It felt like a bad omen.
He grabbed for his cell phone to once again check the time and huffed. Opening the messenger app he re-read your text for the 100th time.
“Running a little behind! Be there in five!”
That was 20 minutes ago. He turned the screen away and laid his phone on the corner at the far end of the small table. Closing his eyes he inhaled deeply in an attempt to calm his frantic nerves. He had planned today diligently, every detail from his outfit to his hair had been meticulously styled and prepared.
What he had not counted on was your chronic tardiness to kick in today of all days. After all, it was your first date.
“WONHO! I’M SOOOO SORRY!”
His heart skipped a beat and he scrambled out of his seat and stood to greet you. He turned in the direction of your voice and faltered. Your date outfit looked…..comfortable. While you were always effortlessly beautiful in his eyes he was not sure if he understood your choice in clothing.
Your hair had been pulled into a messy bun and he was pretty sure you had no make-up on. While the oversized sweater you wore was weather appropriate and looked cute he recognized the black yoga pants as your favorite pair that you wore regularly. In fact, you had been wearing them the day he asked you out.
You rushed over to the table and gave Wonho a quick side hug before setting your bag down and digging through it.
“I promise I did not sleep in this time! You would not believe the day I’ve had. The bus got a flat tire and we had to wait for another bus to come! It was absolutely insane. Have you ordered yet?” Finally you found your phone that had been buried away at the bottom of your bag, you checked the time and cringed at how late you were.
You glanced up at Wonho as you took your seat. He was still standing and seemed to be frozen in place.
“You okay, man?” Your words seemed to jolt him back to reality as he stuttered and took his seat across from you.
“N-No I..” he cleared his throat and tried again as he saw the waiter begin to approach from the corner of his eye. “No, I was waiting for you.”
The waiter quickly returned with your drink orders and left you both to look over the menus. Wonho, having already taken the time to look over the menu while he waiting, snuck glances at you while you read. His heart melted a bit and he felt the corner of his lips curl up into a smile. Despite his initial disappointment that you did not dress up for him you were still gorgeous in his eyes.
You glanced up and met his eyes briefly before he blushed and quickly returned to staring at his menu. Chuckling to yourself you shook your head a bit. You had only been friends with Wonho for about a year but you found that he was rather easy to read. While many of his fans saw him only for his physique, you learned quickly that he was a rather shy and sensitive soul with a heart of gold.
Really he was a big softie.
“You look nice today. Are you dressed up for a special occasion or are you just trying to show off?” You asked casually as you continued to glance over the menu.
He seemed a bit confused as he set his menu down and stared at you a bit. “What do you mean?”
“What do you mean, what do I mean? I’m asking you what you’re all dressed up for.”
“I dressed up for you?”
“Me? What? Why?” This time you were the one to set down your menu and stare across the table feeling confused. Wonho seemed to be frozen while a brief look of panic flashed across his face.
At that moment it all clicked for him. Your outfit, your tardiness, your casual greeting.
You didn’t know this was a date.
Looking back it started to make sense, it was common for the two of you to visit cafes whenever you hung out. You had once jokingly told it him was your mission to try a blueberry muffin from every café in the area in an effort to find “the best blueberry muffin in Seoul.”
The day he asked you out the two of you had been in the area with Jooheon. The three of you had just finished watching the latest action film and were having a lively discussion of your favorite scenes when you stopped dead in your track looking at something in the distance. Wonho followed your line of site to the sign that read “GRAND OPENING” outside of a café that was bustling with activity.
“Guys we have to try this place next time!” you bounced a bit as you pointed to the café.
He wasn’t sure if it was the lively atmosphere or the way your eyes lit up with excitement but he felt all the courage in the world as he spoke his next words.
“How about I bring you next weekend? Just you and me?” He could feel Jooheon’s gaze burning into the back of his head but it did not bother him one bit. At that moment the only thing that mattered was the way you smiled at him when you agreed to meet him at the café, next Saturday at noon.
When he returned to the dorms with Jooheon it seems everyone had already been informed of his stunt. Minhyunk and Hyungown teased him relentlessly but he would not allow them to ruin his excitement or happiness.
He was going on a date with Y/N.

“Wonho?”
He jolted back to the present situation. You sat across from him still looking confused and all his nerves from earlier in the day struck him again in full force.
“What did you mean you dressed up for me?”
Alarms sounded in his head and he began to panic. What should he do in this situation? How does one handle a date where their partner is oblivious to the fact that they are on a date?! He rubbed he sweaty palms on his jeans and cleared his throat once more and started preparing lies in his head.
He was never a very good liar.
“No! I just got this shirt and wanted to wear it today. Isn’t it nice? Don’t I look handsome? I’m going to post selca later for Monbebe!” He flinched a bit at the unconvincing tone in his voice. He could see the gears turning in your head, you may be a bit oblivious, but you certainly weren’t stupid.
“Won…is this? Are we….” He couldn’t breathe.
You hesitated and nervously tried to adjust a few fly away hairs. Suddenly you became very self-conscious of your somewhat messy appearance.
“Is this a date?”
He stared at you with wide eyes but didn’t say a word. It was your turn to panic.
“Wait?! You didn’t tell me! Oh my god, Wonho! I didn’t even put on make-up! Why didn’t you tell me? I knew I should have done my hair today!”
I heavy blush began to color your cheeks as you fumbled through your purse in search of your emergency make-up bag. Wonho chuckled lightly at your flustered nature and felt a slight spike in his confidence. He wasn’t the only one who felt nervous.
You stood from the table abruptly and glared at him.
“Don’t laught at me! This isn’t funny!”
His smile grew a bit more, “I’m sorry, you just….you’re cute when you’re nervous.”
You rolled your eyes but felt your face grow hot once again.
“Fine. I’m going to go put on some make –up. When I get back were going to have a talk about your inability to properly ask me on a date. You’ll have to do better next time.” You huffed and scurried off to the restroom.
He laughed again as he watched you run off but halted when your words registered in his head.
“Next time?”
