10. All I Wanna Do by Jay Park, Hoody and Loco

She doesn’t know how she ended up in this situation, helping this tall guy pick out a gift for his blind date. For some reason, she’s grown quite fond of him as a friend and customer. It’s not any of her business to inquire about her customers’ personal lives, but it’s nice to know the occasions. Of course, this is strictly for customer service purposes. 

Blushing at the question from the short girl in front of him, Namjoon quickly replied, “Ah I’m sorry Miss Hayi, that was certainly not my intention, I’d feel deeply regretful if you have any painful feelings regarding this topic. But I just want you to know you’ve become a really good um friend of mine. So I hope you um decide to trust me with your heart, I promise I’ll be gentle with it.” Scratching the back of his head awkwardly, Namjoon gave a bashful smile to the girl next to him as he reached out his other hand to slowly wrap around hers. The past few days he had spent getting to know Hayi had been some of his favorites, so he sincerely hoped that she liked hanging out with him as much as he enjoyed hanging out with her. 

though, someone entered the shop and the bell hanging from it snapped her out of her beauty nap-- sharply straightening up from the counter at the noise, almost jumping all the way up to the ceiling since she was startled. Widening her eyes and gasping, she then rubbed her face and instantly hissed in protest, but apparently everyone was on break so she has no other option than to assit the customer, and not because she was polite, but because she wanted him to leave so she could sleep again as the grumpy kitten she was. “What-- aah” Her words were interrupted by one adorable yawn before she could continue. “What can I get you?”

“Secret?” Namjoon looked around alarmed. “What secret? I told you a secret? I’m pretty sure I didn’t though, I barely know you. Wait, did someone else… tell you a secret about me?!” Feeling himself getting increasingly more paranoid as thoughts of what this secret could be about swirled in his head. He didn’t even know this man, yet somehow he had information on Namjoon and that alone was enough to freak him out. Grasping the man’s shirt collar in an uncharacteristically violent way, Namjoon brought his face close towards the other man’s. “You better tell me how you know this secret right now, or else I’ll find some way to make you pay!”

“I do rub people the wrong way sometimes. A lot of the time, really. I’ll admit, I can take my joking and pranking too far sometimes, but some people just don’t like me even if I don’t do anything.“ She shrugs. "But it’s nice to hear you say that. Also, you are just the cutest guy ever, oh my god.”

Gulping nervously Namjoon found himself face to face with one of the most notoriously beautiful and flirtatious goddesses on the island. He was horrible around women in general, much less one of the most enchanting ones he had ever seen. He could feel his heart leap in his throat as she leaned closer across the counter towards him. Namjoon had thought that she had came to get treated at the center but that was obviously not the case, as after asking her what was ailing her, she made it very clear that it wasn’t a physical injury. Thus, he had continued to inch as much away from her as possible, after all love was dangerous, especially when a goddess known for loving and leaving her men was concerned. Besides what would she want with a mere demigod like him anyway? With these thoughts swirling around in his head, Namjoon stuttered as he replied, “Ummm ah I’m sorry that I uh can’t h-h-help you with that Miss ah A-a-a-phrodite, but I’m sure you’ll find someone else that would i-i-interest you more uh than me. After all you can make anyone you want fall in l-l-love with you, might as well continue to have s-s-some um fun right?”

Startled Namjoon looked up, only to catch the eye of a fiery orange haired female standing directly in his path. Thinking back on what she could have been referring to, he could only remember his most recent embarrassing incident, the guys from school who insisted on bullying him because he was apparently “too smart.” Their latest idea of torment was to catch him right when he was leaving the Flower Mill and making sure to dump his freshly brewed coffee all over his books and him. He could feel his cheeks reddening at the fact that this random girl had seen him in such an unappealing state. It was his motto to never fight back, but that often left Namjoon looking like a wimp. Still he did appreciate the girls sentiment, and with this thought in mind Namjoon said, “Ah thank you ma’am that’s very nice of you. Well um have a good day, sorry that you had to see that.”
