《 stranger danger 》[KNJ]

*☼*―――――*☼*―――――

The dark clouds gathered in the gloomy sky as the nature roared in the distance. The wind knew no stop as it blew without any mercy on the mankind. It was a dark night, with the thunder on it's peak. It would scare anyone if encountered alone.

While it rained without any signs of stopping anytime soon; a man in his late twenties is anxious. In this brutal weather, stuck in his car, where would he spend the night?

~

"What? You're stuck in the car? Hyung, this is dangerous. The weather is so bad and it's pouring too." Jihoon worriedly said on the phone.

"Ah! I know But, what can I do? I don't know this neighbourhood that much and I can't go out right now as I don't even have an umbrella with me. I'll be fine in the car, don't worry." Namjoon told him not to worry but he was starting to get anxious now.

"Are you kidding me? No, you can't stay there all night long. Where are you exactly?" He asked, voice laced with worry.

"Um, I'm at the street next to your studio." He said, looking around. It was dark and no one was in sight.

"Oh!! Just there?! Then there's nothing to worry. Do one thing, look for a house with rounded windows, that's mine." Jihoon's voice indicated that he was smiling.

"Eh, what? You never told me about it?!" Namjoon was surprised.

"Because I don't use it much, now stop asking and do as I say. Find the house first, it should be easy as it stands out a lot and once you're there, search for a flower pot with sunflowers. Um, it's pretty heavy but there's the key under the pot. You can rest in the house until the storm is calmed down. Simple, right?" Hearing what jihoon said, namjoon sighed.

"Oh god! Now I even have to break into someone's house like thieves." He whined.

"What? You're not breaking in, hyung. The owner himself is giving you permission, what's there to worry about?" Jihoon said.

"Um, okay. I'll do that. Thanks for the help." Namjoon said and hung up.

"Damn! What a nice day it was!" He sighed once again and turned the ignition on, to go looking for the said house.

After just a minute or two, he found it. It sure was unique, huh!

He quickly got out of the car and under the roof, just in front of the main door. Now he could finally feel at ease. He pulled out the key and got inside.

~

"Huh? How could you?" Mi-ra yelled at you through the call.

"It's not my fault that the storm decided to happen just today." You whined, putting your head on the steering wheel.

"You said you're near our usual meeting spot, right? Then, why don't you just go to my house for now? You know where the key is, don't you? Just go, and rest until morning." She said, worried.

"Hm, I think that would be fine. Okay, I'll call you once I reach there. Thanks." You hung up after you heard her saying bye.

You quickly changed the direction and turned the car towards Mi-ra's house.

"This should be okay, right? Going there without jihoon's permission? But, mi-ra said it's okay, so..." You shrugged and turned in to the parking lot.

Seeing another car parked there, you were kinda taken aback.

"Is it her car? Did she just leave it here?" You were confused but got out of the car anyway.

You started searching for the sunflower pot.

"Huh? Why is there mud all over here?" The flower pot looked wrecked. You wondered if it was because of the storm or not.

You looked under the pot, but the key was missing. Now this was concerning. Where can it be, if not here?

You looked for it around the area but couldn't find it so you decided to call mi-ra but your phone decided to be dead just now.

Wow! What a nice timing!

You were frustrated but decided to look around the house. When you glanced at the door, something was unusual.

"Wait- why am I so dumb? The lights are on?! What the freak!" You turned the door knob and it clicked open.

You gulped, scared if it was to be a robber. You were going to pick up anything that could protect you when the door opened itself revealing a hot ass man standing in front of you- well, not naked - just without his shirt on.

"Who the fuck?" You screamed without realising.

"Huh? Calm down, miss whoever you are. Whom are you looking for?" He asked, and hung the towel around his neck with which he was drying his hair before you screamed.

"I'm not looking for anyone, but who the heck are you? Why are you in my friend's house?" You looked at him closely.

His hair was wet- dripping wet. And the towel around his neck of course. The towel couldn't hide the sharp edge of his collar bones though. And his muscles were no joke. If you weren't in a situation like you were in, then in a normal situation you would have started drooling.

You reminded yourself that you're not a dog to drool over something and focused at his face again.

But even his face was so captivating that you lost your focus again. His eyes, one of those that looks like they belong to a dragon, so sharp and hot. But his lips were pretty cute, and did you see the glimpse of a dimple just now? His nose was cute too.

This man was something else!

"Earth to, miss." He sighed and waved his hands in front of your face.

How embarrassing!

"This is my brother's house." He folded his hands, now it was his turn to stare at you.

You felt shy all of sudden and that made you lose your composure.

"What brother?? This is my friend's house and she just told me that no one is here. Why are you here then, Mister?" Your voice was a bit too loud and he panicked.

"You'll wake up the neighbours. Come inside first." He pulled you in by your wrist, catching you off guard and shut the door behind you.

"You're talking about mi-ra, aren't you? She's my brother jihoon's wife." He explained in a calm voice unlike you who was ready to fight demons just now.

"Oh!" The surprise was evident on your face which made him chuckle.

"Myself Kim Namjoon. And you?" He stepped aside, finally giving you enough room to breathe something else aside from his cologne which was, well pretty intoxicating.

"Han Y/N." You bowed, which was more like apologising for being such a loud hindrance.

"Um, so why are you here?" He asked awkwardly.

"I was stuck in the storm so mi-ra told me to come here. I thought no one was staying here." You said and looked around. It didn't look like someone was living there.

"Oh I see. I was stuck too, that's why jihoon told me to come here and I guess they both didn't talk about this to each other." He chuckled, still a little awkward.

"Oh, seems like it." You pursed your lips and looked away from him. You were feeling hot now, even in a weather like this, just because of a shirtless man?

What's wring with you today?

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'll get dressed right now." He realised not so soon and wore the t-shirt that was on the couch.

Until now, you didn't know that watching a man put on his shirt could be sexy. You blinked and looked away once again. 'You should be ashamed, ogling at someone you barely know.' You reminded yourself.

"So, is it okay if we stay here together? It's just for one night anyway." He suggested and obviously you didn't have other choices so you nodded.

"Oh shit! A big ass cockroach." The day can not be any worse. You jumped on the couch and namjoon just happened to be standing just beside the couch making it easier for your panicking mind to think that it was a nice idea to jump on him.

Seriously?

You screamed yet again as the cockroach was not out of your sight yet. And you didn't even realise that you were practically in his arms.

Poor namjoon! He had to pick you up, bridal style.

"Hey, hey, calm down. It's just a cockroach. I'll get rid of it, but can you stop squirming please? Oh, look it's gone already." He said and you opened your squeezed shut eyes.

And yeah, there was nothing. But now it was more embarrassing.

You slowly looked up at him, to find him looking at you only. You closed your eyes, feeling the blood rushing to your cheeks that made you bury your face in his chest.

Now, isn't this more embarrassing?

He cleared his throat and you quickly got off him, feeling embarrassed as ever.

You heard him chuckle which made you only blush more.

"I'm sorry." You said in a small voice.

"It's okay." He said to your relief. "That was rather cute." He added in a whisper like voice as he walked away to the kitchen to bring a glass of water for you.

He came back, putting the glass on the table. And went to pick up his towel from the couch.

"It's back!" Another scream and you were back to being a scardy cat. The infamous coskroach was back.

You reached out for your only source of security which was namjoon and he just- again -happened to be near the couch, to his fortune or misfortune, that's upto him to decide.

With the force that you leaped onto him, he stumbled onto the couch and you fell down with him too.

"Ouch!" He groaned but couldn't stand back up.

Your one hand was on the couch, busy balancing your body and helping you not to fall on top of namjoon completely.

But to your dismay, your hand slipped and you fell straight on his chest. You quickly tried to get up only to fall back down again, this time even more horribly, with your lips almost touching his.

That was enough for you to lose your mind. You saw him gulp as he helped you get up and also got rid of the cockroach for good this time. You sighed in relief.

He was silent all this time, but from the corner of your eyes you could see a tiny tiny of blush decorating his ears.

~

In the morning, you both had anything that was in the fridge as a breakfast and decided to leave together.

"Um, it was nice meeting you, Mr namjoon." You were feeling some type of way. You know the feeling you get when you don't want to let go of something? Exactly that!

"Same here." He smiled and his dimples got your heart racing once again.

You looked down, smiling. It was time to go, you both stepped out, locking the house and putting the key back. You were ready to open your car door when he called out.

"Ms Y/N, I was wondering... if we could meet again some other time." His words made you stop abruptly.

Judging by your shocked express he panicked, "Uh, it's okay if you don't want to, I understand." He seemed disappointed.

"W-why? I mean, of course we can. Here, take my business card. No- I should give you my personal number instead." His face lit up and he skipped his way towards you happily.

At the end, this experience didn't end up as a nightmare.

"So, kids! That's how I met your mother." Namjoon finished with the same cute dimple smile as you and your little ones laughed looking at his adorable behaviour.
