I look myself over in the mirror. Jooheon sits on the bed behind me, watching me. I smile as I notice him and turn around, walking over to him. As I get close, he pulls me into a hug. I grab his face and slightly bend down to kiss him while he holds my waist. I pull away and he whines.

"Soojin, you look too cute to be going on a date with him. Wear something else..."

I laugh and shake my head. "I thought you and Hanbin were becoming friends?"

Jooheon pouts. "That doesn't mean I have to trust him. And really, aren't your shorts not long enough? He's going to try to make a move." He tries to pull my shorts down a little in the back, making me laugh again.

"Joo, don't be too insecure. Even if you don't trust Hanbin, trust me. It'll be fine." I go back to standing in front of the mirror and fix my ponytail a little. Then, I look at my outfit again just to make sure it's fine. My shorts and black tank top would be perfect for our casual movie date, the first stick picked from the jar.

Jooheon whines again and I smile at him, rolling my eyes playfully. "Look, I'll be gone for a few hours. Then, tonight when I get back you'll have me all to yourself, okay? Be happy, please? For me?"

I walk back over to him and brush my fingers through his dark brown hair. He sighs. "Fine, only because I'll be excited when you come home. I'll just try to focus on recording while you're gone. But I can't be happy, not really." He grabs my hands and holds them, pulling me back down for another kiss. 

Just as our lips meet, someone knocks at the front door. "That's probably him." I smile at Jooheon and lead him out of the bedroom and to the door. I open it and reveal a smiling Hanbin.

"Hello, Soojin. Hi, Jooheon." He steps into my apartment and I smile back at him.

"Good afternoon, Hanbin."

"Good afternoon," Jooheon says. 

Hanbin holds his hand out. "Ready to go, Soojin?"

I nod and take his hand, making Jooheon tense. Suddenly, he says, "Listen, Bin. I trust Soojin, but I'm still a little wary of you. So you better not try to put any moves on my woman."

I stifle a laugh while Hanbin chuckles. "You know as well as I do that I'm not going to try and put any moves on Soojin. Don't worry, Jooheon. We're just two friends going to see a movie."

Jooheon narrows his eyes before sighing and lifting his arms in defeat. "Fine, fine. Have a good time and I'll see you soon, Soo."

He kisses me on the cheek before letting me go. I smile. "See you soon."

Hanbin leads me out of my apartment and Jooheon waves goodbye one last time. We find Hanbin's car parked below and he helps me into my seat. Then, once my seatbelt is on, he shuts my door and jogs over to his side of the car before getting in. He starts his car and looks over at me.

"So, the movie is in an hour. Jinhyo suggested that we stop at a cafe to get a few pictures and to be noticed."

I nod. "Sounds good. What are we going to see?"

He shakes his finger in front of my face and smirks. "Ah, ah, ah. All you're allowed to know is that we're going to see a movie."

I pout. "No fair. It better be something good."

He chuckles. "It is." 

Then, he puts his car into gear and we begin cruising into the city, ready for the night to begin. I play with the radio while Hanbin sighs next to me. He whines, "Would you just pick a station already?"

I roll my eyes. "I can't find anything I want to listen to."

Finally, I hear a familiar song. I stop playing with the radio and turn the volume up a bit. Then, I look over at Hanbin with amusement, while he scrunches his face. I lean in closer to the radio and gasp, smiling widely at him.

"Is...is this...? No way, it's surely-" I dramatically pause to listen to the music. "It IS. It's Love Scenario. Oh, and we're right in time for your part!"

I turn the music up just a bit more and start singing along with his part. Next to me, he rolls his eyes and grips the steering wheel. I laugh, amused at his annoyance, and continue singing along. He glances over at me quickly, "I liked it better when you were skipping stations."

I smile. "Aw, does Hanbin not like listening to his own music?"

He rolls his eyes again. "It's not that, I'd just prefer if someone else was singing my part, you know, someone who could actually sing. No wonder you're an actress."

"Oh, come on. You're just jealous because I sang your part better than you. Sing with me, Hanbin! Have some fun!"

"Thaaaat's it. I'm enforcing a strict 'Only Hanbin Touches The Radio' rule in this car. Okay?" He quickly changes the station to another station. A song I don't recognize is playing.

I sigh and slouch in my seat. "Fine. Whatever. How far away is this cafe?"

Hanbin turns down a street and pulls into a parking lot behind a brick building. Then, as he parks his car, he turns the engine off and smiles over at me. "We're here."
