“You know,” he starts, drinking again, eyes still on her, never leaving her face. Jiyong is one to look at people right in their eyes. “Every girl who bumps into me like that has to pay me something,” and then he leans in until he is closer to her, but not too close to comfort, “now you gotta say your name, and explain why I never saw you around before. And I know it’s your first time here. I would’ve noticed otherwise.”
Well, this night couldn’t get any better. Her eyes crinkled with excitement at the sight of the handsome stranger actually conducting a conversation with her. Usually, Sooyoung would keep to herself and be standing outside practically calling a cab while ditching her so-called friend. For some reason letting go tonight had been one of the most amazing decisions of her life--and letting her know she should get out more. Especially if there were going to be a lot more handsome men she’d be bumping into. Her mind was pulled back sluggishly when she heard him speak.
His tone was almost calming to her even though she was pretty much down right drunk (damn being lightweight). Sooyoung leaned in as she tried her best to focus on him through the booming music and sweaty, loud human beings dancing to it. “My name is Sooyoung.” She spoke confidently, the alcohol coursing through her and giving that liquid courage people desire. “Why I’ve never been here? I’m pretty lame.” She said sheepishly for a second while tucking one of her lose locks behind her ear. “I don’t go out much because of studying for one.” That and you’re afraid of real life. Her consciousness (though completely swayed from liquor) rang out as she mentally hit herself.
“And, to be honest, I’m super shy unless... I have a little help.” She was rambling now and that wasn’t something she didn’t want to do. The girl couldn’t help it when seeing someone she was attracted to--and who was attracted to her. “Let’s just say I usually don’t go out.” She decided to leave it at that while placing the empty cup she had in her hands on a tray that was walking by.
“Now how about you tell me your name since you were so kind enough to let my clumsiness slide.” She tilted her head to the side with a giant smile, her eyes surprisingly never leaving his. Keeping good eye contact was something that Sooyoung wasn’t used to giving. It kind of scared her actually. If she was good friends with someone then maybe it wouldn’t be that scary, but staring at a stranger? It was definitely making her feel goosebumps--and he showed interest in her too!
