The thing with shopping is that I'm lazy, I hate having to try stuff on. But then if I go home and it doesn't fit I'm far too lazy to return it, so it's a lose lose situation for me.

My eyes land on a cute off the shoulder oversized black sweater. I check the price tag and nearly faint, ninety dollars for a damn sweater. I think not.

Mahogany runs over to me with an arm full of jeans.

Mahogany: I'm going to try these all on.
Me: Goodluck with that.
Mahogany: I need you to tell me if they look good or not. Do they compliment my thighs or make my ass flat!

I giggle.

Me: Did you forget we all have a date?
Mahogany: I'm not going to ask Kihyun, that's embarrassing!

"What's embarrassing?"

We both spin around to see Kihyun standing there holding his shopping bags.

Mahogany: Nothing.
Me: Liar.

She elbows me in my stomach, a sigh leaves my lips as I follow her to the changing rooms. Changkyun is sitting on the bench as well, I sit at the other end.

Awkward silence fills the air. Every so often he'll look over and glance at me, I do the same.

Violet comes out the fitting room wearing a short fitted purple dress. What's with this girl and purple?

You are not the Kim Taehyung you think you are.

Violet: How does this look Kyunie?
Changkyun: It's pretty.
Violet: Thank you.

She smiles before disappearing in the back. Mahogany comes out in her first pair of jeans. They're light blue with patterns of rips through the legs. I like them.

Me: They're cute.
Mahogany: Is the booty sitting though?

I laugh before nodding. She grins before going back into the room.

Changkyun: I heard through the grapevine that Hyungwon really likes you.
Me: And how is that your business?
Changkyun: It's not, but you are.
Me: I'm not and neither is my body.

He hums.

Finally Kihyun's little field trip to the mall is over, once we get home I stretch and kick off my shoes to prepare for a nap.

Kihyun tosses a shopping bag at me and I frown.

Me: This isn't mine.
Kihyun: Hyungwon said it was.

I look into the bag and almost scream, it's the sweater I was looking at. My mouth open then closes again, what?

I immediately dial up his number and wait for him to answer.

Hyungwon: Hello?
Me: Dude!

He laughs.

Me: I-, this sweater..
Hyungwon: Yes, what about it?
Me: How did you know?
Hyungwon: I seen you go all heart eyed over it, plus it'll look really good on you.

I smile.

Me: Thank you but it's too expensive of a gift.
Hyungwon: Too bad, it's yours now.
Me: But.
Hyungwon: No buts, have a nice evening Bri.

He hangs up and I stare at my phone in shock, he bought me a ninety dollar sweater. What in the world is going on?

That night I text Hyungwon about any and everything. Talking to him is like talking to a bestfriend I've known since childhood. The conversation is so funny and refreshing.

My smile slips away once I see a certain text message.

Changkyun: I'm coming over in 5. Be nice and wet for me ;)
