《8》
All the guys (except Yoongi) offered a bite from their meals, which was nice. I was surprised to be included but they were very adamant that I have a taste from their dishes (Don't yall dare). By the end of dinner, all of the dishes were finished since we all shared.
When the waitress set the bill on the table, Jin grabbed it right as I reached for it. He smirked at me and opened the receipt to check out the overall cost.
"I can pay for myself! Honestly." I complained and Jin looked up at me.
"There is no need. It's not too much anyway. If it bothers you, perhaps you can buy your own ice cream after we leave?" Jin suggests and I shrug my shoulders to accept. He smiles and places his credit card into the sleeve of the notebook with the check in it.
"Yes! Ice cream after this! I'm going to be on such a sugar high tonight." cheers Jimin. The others grin at his statement and soon we head on our way out of the restaurant. Everyone steps into their assigned vehicles and, after a couple minutes, we pull into the driveway of the apartment complex.
From the front seat Jin turns and says, "We have a favorite street ice cream truck that is about a 10 minute walk from here. I hope you don't mind a bit of a stroll."
Shaking my head in response, I exit the vehicle and all the boys meet up around me.
"Ice Cream!" Taehyung joyfully states and walks towards the exit of the garage with the rest of us following.
The night air was refreshing and warm. Since it was almost the end of summer, the days have been very hot, but the nights have had a nice warm temperature. The boys joked around with each other and I conversed with Namjoon about his philosophical rant. Taehyung announced that he could see the truck and both Namjoon and I focused our attention on the truck.
The ice cream truck really wasn't far and had the name "What's the Scoop?" on the front of it. String lights were strewn all around the truck and brightened its appearance. It had very colorful designs with cute swirls, stars, hearts, dots, etc. There were painted ice cream cones and popsicles all around the window. The window was opened and showed various ice creams and prices on it. There were a few people milling around the area but no one ordering. Around the ice cream truck was a pavilion that consisted of various tables with several chairs set around, a fountain nearby, patches of grass, and trees in certain areas. I didn't see this area earlier.
Nearing the truck, I noticed an elderly man reading a paper on a stool behind the front window. Inside the truck there were really bright lights and big shelves of, what I assumed to be, ice cream.
I notice Namjoon and Yoongi stroll away towards a table. They were bringing several chairs around it. Looking back at the others, Jungkook was already conversing with the man. Jimin and Taehyung were behind him giddily bouncing on the heels of their feet. Jin and Hoseok motioned me in front of them to order, so I stepped up and read the menu over Jimin's shoulders.
When it was my turn, I decided to ask for a sugar cone with a simple scoop of vanilla, caramel drizzle, and colorful dotted sprinkles. The man was very kind and added a generous scoop. When he handed it to me, I paid and thanked him with a smile before heading over to the table that the others were at. The ice cream was very sweet and perfect to end the day with. Once Jin and Hoseok sat down, I decided to glance over at the others' options.
Jin and Namjoon shared a bowl with two scoops of Peaches and Cream and chocolate drizzle. Jimin had Chocolate with added chocolate chips and gave Yoongi a couple bites. Hoseok had Rainbow Sherbet, Taehyung had Cookies n' Cream, and Jungkook had Cookie Dough flavor. All of them had added sprinkles to them.
Everyone was quieter and enjoying the desserts since it was getting late and the ice cream couldn't just be left to melt. The sun was gone and the night sky was soothing to look at. I finally finished my ice cream and leaned back in my seat to stare at the crescent moon. Reminds me of someone's eyes when they smile.
"Y/n, thanks for joining us tonight. It was a nice way of getting to know you." Namjoon broke the silence as I glanced over to see the other boys staring at me.
"Thank you for inviting me! It was really fun to hang out with all of you too." I replied while straightening my posture in the seat and they smiled.
"You never gave us your number? I'll add you into a group chat so we can all converse." Stated Namjoon as he passed his phone over to me. I nod and quickly add my contact information before handing the phone back. He says a quick thanks and adds me into the chat. A vibration comes from my phone not a second later and I see that I was added to a new group chat. Namjoon just texted a "Welcome to the third floor neighbor chat!". He also changed the group chat name to that and I grin at his word choice. Quickly adding him in my contacts, I glance up at the group.
"Let's start heading back. It's about 9:30." Yoongi stated as he stood and everyone soon followed. I waved at the man in the ice cream truck politely and he waved back.
The walk back was eventful due to Jungkook, Taehyung, Jimin, and Hoseok running and joking around. The other three and I just followed behind quietly. Upon arriving at the apartment complex, we took the elevator up to the third floor and exited.
I turned and bowed a bit. "Thank you again for the fun night! I'm glad you guys are pretty nice for my neighbors. Perhaps we can hang out again or we'll pass each other in the halls?"
"It was really fun hanging out with you too y/n! We all should get some good rest. Maybe we will see each other tomorrow? Have a good night y/n." Jin says with a bright smile. The others let out tired smiles and we all dispersed into our rooms. I fumbled with my key to lock the door and noticed the others had electronic door locks. I should do that.
I finally unlocked my door and entered. Shutting and locking the door behind me, I walk straight to my bedroom in the dark. I may have bumped into the armchair because of the new design of the apartment, but that's my fault for walking blindly. Finally arriving in my bedroom, I turn on the lights and quickly change into a comfortable shirt that fell to my knees and a pair of shorts. I left my phone on my bed as I quickly do my night routine. Exiting the bathroom I sit at my bed to scroll through social media.
What catches my attention was seven new notifications. They were all from the group chat.

I closed the messaging app while rolling my eyes. I put the phone on silent mode and hooked it up to charge on the nightstand. My class would start at 9 in the morning which wasn't too bad. Turning off the lights and double-checking the alarm was on, I head on over to bed and fall asleep.
