"I like it when we get closer
When it gets risky
Only when you hold my hand
It feels like I have started"

Lilah's alarm started blaring. She got up and stretched her arms. She had to get ready for her afternoon shift. She changed herself into a pink sweatshirt and dark blue skinny jeans. She tied her hair into a ponytail and did a light makeup.(a/n:dont ask me why)She quickly packed her bag and took her some books with her.
Meanwhile, Hendery got the idea that he's supposed to call his friend. He took his phone out and called Kun. "Hey, its time for the next plan. She's up."
"Ok" Kun simply replied.

Kun called his friend Xiaojun. Xiaojun came running down the hall. He was wearing a black dress shirt and black jeans. He had kept few buttons undone. His hair was done. Kun looked at him and grinned. "You look like a man," Kun said laughing. "Oh come on! I always look like a man and today's a special day you see," he replied smirking. Kun raised his hands in defeat and said, "Don't do something wrong, ok? She should not get hurt." Xiaojun nodded. He took the key of his bike. And rode his way to his destination.

Lilah reached the bookstore. This was time where she was the only one who would look after the store. She took her apron and wore it. She started picking up the books which were on the table groaning. 'Why do they have to stack these books everytime,'she thought. She reached her hand to the last book which was lying on the floor. But at the same time a hand had also reached the same book. She prayed,' Not a handsome face, please. I have had enough today.' But it seems like her prayer can't be accepted.(a/n: wtf did i type) She looked up and saw beautiful pair of brown eyes looking back at her. She tried looking at the features of this person. Chiseled nose, prominent cheekbones, soft looking lips and clear skin.
She ended up blushing for the millionth time. Ok, that's a literal exagerration but she has blushed a lot today and its extremely weird. Why of all the days is she encountering these god like handsome boys? This has to be a coincidence. "You know its rude to stare, right?"the person broke her chain thoughts by saying this. "I-uh-um I am sorry," Lilah apologised. The person just chuckled at her flustered state. They both got up with piles of books in their hands. "Th-thank you sir. But I need to place the books in their original places,"she said. "Ok then, let me help you,"the person or the guy replied.
Lilah looked up at the guy, confused. "Why would you help me sir? You should not be helping me, its not your job,"she explained. But he just simply pouted and asked," But you are alone and you can't do all the work alone, can you?" "No sir, you are supposed to buy the books-"Lilah got cut off by the guy walking towards the shelf and placing them on their places. Suprisingly, he had placed them in the correct place. He then looked at her," Come on, I can't let you work alone. Team work will help." And then he smiled. Lilah couldn't help but smile back. She nodded and did the same thing as the guy.
Soon customers started getting in. Lilah stood behind the counter and started greeting te customers. The guy waked towards the counter and asked,"Can I get an apron for the time being, Lilah?" She looked at him and then at her name tag. How stupid of her to think that he's a creep when he's a gentleman. She hesitantly and gave him an apron. "Here, Sir," she said. The guy looked at her with a slight pout,"Don't call me sir. It sounds weird plus I am helping you. Call me Dejun." She nodded and smiled.
It was around 9 o'clock. Customers were coming less in numbers as the store was about to get close. It closed at 9:15 pm. Lilah had to put all the books at their places yet again. Dejun got a cue that hes supposed to help her put the books. They started picking up the books and accidently bumped her heads on each other. They looked at each other and laughed it off. They continued their team work. Lilah had a last book on her hand. She searched through shelfs and got its place. Unfortunately, it was on the top most column. She groaned and tried standing on her tip toes but she couldn't reach it.
Dejun came and stood behind her. He took the book and placed it on its place and seems like he didn't realise but she had almost got pinned to the shelf. She could feel his hot breath touching the side of her ears. She froze at her spot and her eyes got wide as if they might come out anytime. She then quickly shut her eyes. Dejun got back and looked at Lilah with a confusion on his face and then he smirked. "Lilah. Are you there?"He asked playfully. Lilah looked back at him eyes wide and her cheeks are red like tomato. She breathed out. She didn't even realise she had been holding it so long.
"Thank you so much. How can I owe you?"Dejun grinned and said," Then let me give us treat." Lilah defended,"But its your money, right?I can't make you waste your money on me." "But you said you owe me. So owe me with this," he said. "Ok, I will pay for the treat,"Lilah said. "No that would be weird. I can't see you paying for me. That's unmanly," he defended. "Ok then lets do one thing. Lets pay for ourselves,"Lilah concluded. Dejun nodded giving up. They went to the restaurant just beside the store and ordered their food.
When it came to paying bills, it didn't worked as planned. Dejun was too quick to pay for the bills. Throughout the dinner they shared conversation with each other and got to know each other well. "Come on, let me give you a ride to your home. Its too late," Dejun offered. Lilah took the point to a consideration and accepted the offer. "Hop on," he sat on his bike and pointed behind him.She sat behind him and held his shoulders hesitantly. She guided the way to her apartment. And they rode off.
As soon as they reached. Lilah hopped off and bid him 'bye'. But she didn't realise that Guan hang had been staring them for a while. He smirked and messaged his group 'task completed'.
