Heart Strings

Chapter 27

She approached Chan nervously, but soon calmed down when he smiled.

"You look amazing, Geoun." Chan's voice was different as he spoke, but it made Geoun feel good.

"Yeah sorry, my uh. My roommates wanted to dress me up for coffee earlier," she nervously chuckled and tucked her hair behind her ear as the elevator opened. Chan followed her inside and they headed down to his car.

As they reached Chan's car, he opened her door and then got into the driver's seat, but sat in silence a few moments before he turned to Geoun.

"I'm sorry, but you look absolutely beautiful, Geoun. I-," He struggled to find the right words. "You're beautiful, and I want you to know that."

He shyly smiled as he turned the car on and headed to the studio. His words had caused Geoun's cheeks to heat up and blush. She had never been complimented like that before and it made her feel really good.

"Thank you, Chan." She smiled over at him and his heart did crazy things in his chest when he saw her smile.

They soon arrived at the studio and Chan opened Geoun's door for her. She followed him into the studio and sat down on the couch as usual. Chan followed sitting next to her.

"So, what all do you have left for the song?" Geoun took her shoes off and brought her legs onto the couch.

"Just polishing really. We uh. Figured out the chorus yesterday and everyone's verses are done. Now I just gotta put it all together and make it sound good," Chan was pulling up the music file on his laptop.

"Sounds fun," Geoun giggled as Chan's face disagreed with her.

"Depends on how long it takes," he started moving some audio clips around.

Geoun leaned over to watch him work, as she neared his shoulder, his cologne filled her nose with it's intoxicating scent.

A strange feeling in her stomach happened, but Geoun stayed by Chan, loving the feeling and his cologne.

Her face was leaned against his shoulder as she watched him arrange and rearrange the audio clips until he played it and liked the sound.

It had only taken about 30 minutes, so when Chan closed his laptop, Geoun got a little sad. She didn't want to go home just yet. But neither did Chan.

"That was way quicker than I thought it'd be," Chan bit his lip and looked down at Geoun. "Hey. How about we order takeout and have a movie night here? We have that big TV in the recording room."

Geoun softy smiled and nodded. "I'd like that."

Chan returned the smile. "Okay, um. What do you want to eat?"

"Orange chicken and fried rice! Ooh! And crab rangoon?" Geoun smiled bigger now.

"Bet. Let me order real quick," Chan pulled out his phone and headed into the recording room as he called a chinese takeout place.

As he finished up the call, Chan wheeled out the TV that they had played games on before and set it up in front of the couch. He sat next to Geoun and began scrolling through Netflix.

"So,movie? Or do you wanna keep watching our show?" Chan looked over at Geoun.

"Our show?" Geoun emphasized the word 'our'.

Chan blushed but didn't back down. "Y-yeah."

A smile stretched across Geoun's face as she spoke. "Okay, let's watch OUR show."

Chan selected the correct episode and hit play as they waited for their food. He had pulled Geoun into his side and her body was cuddled against him, exactly how they liked.
