status: accepting @bxhyung

Staring at the female in front of him, Eunwoo rubbed back of his neck, shifting slightly on his feet. Bomi was a special kind of girl in more than one way. She was leader of a gang and from time to time Eunwoo would do all kind of odd jobs for her to earn himself some ‘pocket money’. Bomi never questioned his methods and he would always get the job done no matter what. It was unheard of for the wendigo to refuse any job given by her and it was even rarer for him to refuse hanging out with her.

“Ah, no. I usually prefer girls who don’t chase after me like that.” He laughed lightly, shaking his head. Even though Jinwoo has never been in a serious relationship, he liked to think that he would be good enough a judge of character to not end up with someone like her. A quiet sigh left his lips t the strangers suggestion. He was probably right so he quickly followed him with a nod until they were walking alongside each other down the now quiet street. His gaze moved up when the other pointed to te building and he smiled, his head tipping to the side. “Oh really? That sounds nice. Would you mind if I join you?” Usually he wouldn’t just invite himself like this, especially if this was his special secret place, but he really didn’t want to go home just yet. He wanted to enjoy the fresh air a little longer. “I mean, I totally understand if you want to be alone.” He mumbled, scratching the side of his head.

“Actually… That’s exactly how I ended up here.” He laughed sheepishly, knowing how ridiculous it was. But fortunately the girl never found out where they lived and Jinwoo wanted to keep it like that. “I didn’t want to lead her anywhere close to our dorm so I tried to get as far away from it anyway as possible.” He said. “I didn’t have much time to think so I guess this decision seem a little rushed, hm?”

“I can see that.” Eunwoo answered with a smile, finding the whole situation amusing. “You wouldn’t run away from her if you liked it. Or maybe you would. Because then you would love the chase.” He added, teasing the other. When the stranger invited himself to join him, Eunwoo had to admit that he was surprised. When he told the other about his special place, he didn’t think the stranger would want to see it but then again, this whole night was different from the start. “Sure, I don’t mind. I guess it’s good to have some company from time to time.” He agreed after some thinking, watching how the other suddenly seemed to become uncomfortable as the silence dragged on but he hoped that his answer will change that.

“Ah! Really?” Eunwoo’s eyes widened comically and he couldn’t help not to laugh when his theory of how the other ended up here was confirmed. “Well, at least you did what you planned and got her away from your dorm. But wait... You live in a dorm? Are you a student?” He questioned as he lead the way over to the building. “Maybe it was a bit rushed but hey, it all turned well, right?” 

After a long day of practice, the only thing Jinwoo wanted to do was get home, take a shower and hop into his comfy bed for at least a few hours of sleep. He knew it wouldn’t be enough for him to feel well rested the next morning but it didn’t matter. He would take whatever he could get. But when he walked out of the Fantagio bulding and saw the familiar female standing there, he knew it would still take a while for him to get home.

Jinwoo saw her a few times already and it was fine at first but the more he saw her lurking around the more uncomfortable he felt. He usually tried to be polite but this time it was different. She wouldn’t stop following him even after several times of him asking her kindly to leave him alone until it got to a point where he actually had to run to get rid of her. Since he didn’t want to lead her right to their dorm, he tried to shake her off by changing his direction and as he took a left, he didn’t have enough time to stop before he bumped right into the taller male. He stopped and looked around for a moment before turning his gaze back to the stranger, looking at him with pleading eyes. “Please don’t tell her I’m here. Just say you saw me walking another way. Please.” He said, before running into the allyway to hide behind the standee of a small restaurant. He didn’t have enough time to explain his situation properly so all he could do was hope that the stranger would be kind enough to help him out.

If Eunwoo had to be honest, he would say that he expected to see something out of the movies but unfortunately that wasn’t the case. The male that bumped into him was shorter than him, looking shaken and disturbed, eyes that were looking at him pleadingly. New meal. Was the thought that passed Eunwoo’s mind  but as he looked how the other male rushed to hide he ended up shaking his head. Maybe not. Or maybe he could... He was interrupted once again when a girl passed beside him only to return and demand if he saw anyone passing by him, grabbing at his shirt, crazy look in her eyes.

He looked like he was thinking for a moment before he nodded, pointing in an opposite direction. “Short male yeah? Blonde hair? He went that way.” Eunwoo said with a smile on his lips just as he was pushed away by ungrateful brat. Really? Instead of saying thanks she just pushed him away and started running in the direction he pointed at. Oh, now he definitely changed his mind about his next meal. It’s going to be her.

“I risk getting outed for this.” He sighs softly. “Why don’t we just go back to my place then? I have alcohol there, it’s quiet, and you won’t have to deal with all these people.” He didn’t like bringing to many people to his house, especially people he wasn’t close to but he figured the male with him wasn’t too bad.
