the boy next door

𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐰𝐨

I was about to knock on the door but retreated my hand back instantly.

Just do it you fucking coward.

I took a deep breath and lifted my head and was about to knock but the door suddenly opened, causing me to knock on the person's forehead. I heard a small 'ah' and I looked at the person in front of me.

IT HAD TO BE A GIRL OUT OF ALL THE GENDERS?!

My face reddened as I started bowing and saying sorry.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to knock on your forehead."

She shook her head. I cleared my throat as I spoke again.

JEON ARA.

"Hello! I'm your new neighbour. I hope you enjoy this Sirutteok!"

The mint-haired boy enthusiastically spoke after clearing his throat. I took out my notepad and wrote something before handing it to him.

'thank you for the rice cakes and welcome to the building!'

He looked at the note for a second before speaking again.

" you're mute? "

I just nodded with a smile.

"Oh. Anyways enjoy the Sirutteok! I hope we meet again."

He jumbled in his words before thrusting the Sirutteok into my hands which I thankfully caught and headed to the elevator. Even though he was fast I was faster to see the pink in his cheeks. I chuckled to myself before closing the door and looking at the Sirutteok in my hands.

He's cute.

As soon as I thought that. The door suddenly busted open, my best friend coming in.

And he's definitely not cute.

"Joon, how many times should I tell you TEXT ME FIRST BEFORE YOU COME."

He looked at me weirdly before responding.

"I did text you though"

I took out my phone and there it was, the mother fucking texts.

"Oh."

Namjoon then glanced at the sirutteok.

"Sirutteok? Since when did you eat sirutteok?"

"ah, this one? I got it from my new neighbour"

"oh~ is it a boy~~"

"yes."

"what?"

"my new neighbour's a boy, can't you hear?"

"As you know I got into a car-"

"Yes you got into an accident which damaged your ears Yada Yada yada I know so shut up."

"Um, rUde. Anyways are you going to eat those Sirutteoks?"

"Let me pick the pink ones. You can have the rest."

"Thank you bestieee"

He squealed. Of course, he would. Siruteok is his heaven food.

While eating the Sirutteoks on the couch I questioned him.

"Why did you come here?"

He shrugged his shoulders.

"I was thinking of hanging out with you. You wanna go to the mall??"

"No. Too boring. Let's go to the arcade instead."
