17. “You make my dopamine levels surge.” with namjoon | 170
"Joonieeeee," you whine into the phone.
"Yes, babe?"
"I'm bored."
You hear him sigh into the receiver. "I'm upstairs, why didn't you just come get me?" "I don't want to get off the couch. Come watch a movie with me."
"Sorry, babe. I need to finish this track first."
You pout, knowing he can't see it. " . . . But I love you," you argue.
Namjoon, in his studio, squeezes his eyes at the thought of how cute you must look right now. "Sorry, babe. I'll see if I can get this done in the next hour." "Hmph," he hears you huff.
"Talk to you later, babe," he grins.
"--Wait," you interject.
"yes?" Namjoon waits.
"You make my dopamine levels surge," you offer as a last resort.
And how can Namjoon say no to that? "Alright, babe. But you're making the popcorn," he relents. Work will have to wait. Downstairs, you shriek with glee, and Namjoon doesn’t even need the phone to hear it from his studio.
