The Maid | P.Sh

"Sieun?" Sunghoon poked his head into my room, while I sat with loads of papers scattered around me on the bed, only earning a hum as I looked up at him, "date with Jake and his girlfriend, Saturday, 11am."

"Got it," I smiled widely as he only replied with a small one before excusing himself once again.

I was quite excited at the thought of a date with Sunghoon, a proper one that he even took the initial to plan, even though it was along with Jake. I hadn't been given a dress code for the date so I guess I just had to dress casually.

Exactly 10.47am I stood ready down by the front door, patiently waiting for Sunghoon. Who had very sternly told me to be ready by 10.45am so we had time to go to wherever the date was. Yet I was two minutes late and he still wasn't there.

"Park Sunghoon!" I yelled out, immediately hearing a door fly up and fast footsteps down the hallway on the second floor.

"You can't rush beauty Sieun," Sunghoon complained as he rushed down the stairs, pulling a flannel shirt over his white tee. To my surprise he let the flannel hang open and he even wore jeans.

"Now who are you and what have you done to formal Sunghoon?" I questioned as he just let out a small laugh before grabbing his coat and ushering me out of the door, straight out to the familiar car in which I knew his driver sat.

"Formal Sunghoon is only for work. Broke college student Hoon is for dates," Sunghoon excused before excitedly helping me into the car, following right after me.

"Pleasure to see you again miss Jung," the driver commented, still the same old nice man.

"The feeling's mutual," I assured and buckled my seatbelt.

Instead of sitting in the other side of the backseat Sunghoon had decided to sit in the slim middleseat, sitting closer to me than I expected he would've. 

While the car drove down the streets Sunghoon rested his arm around my shoulders, once in a while pointing out things through the window beside me. Marvelling at it with pure excitement and happiness written over his face. Something that made me unable to not peck his cheek.

"Why did you do that?" he complained with a small laugh, cupping his own cheek, which I had kissed, looking at me with so much happiness in his face.

"Because I wanted to," I excused with a shrug and looked back out the window.

Once the car came to a halt I could see the large city mall outside of the windows. My head immediately snapped to Sunghoon with a slightly suspicious look.

"Trust me, alright?" he questioned and I just nodded at him as he got out of the car, extending a hand to help me out before yelling a thanks to his driver that drove off again.

"Didn't... tell me mister Park, isn't this building technically yours?" I questioned him in amusement, making him sigh heavily and closing his eyes tightly while he just nodded.

"But... just because I own it, it doesn't mean that we can't have fun and a date here," Sunghoon remarked, tugging me along to the entrance while I let out a small laugh at him, "I only own the building, none of the stores inside the mall. Plus, it was Jake's idea to do it here."

"Sunghoon?" I called out, making him hum and look down at me with all his attention, "I was just joking."

"Oh thank god," he breathed out while I let out another small laugh.

I quietly followed Sunghoon as he pulled me towards the middle of the mall, only giving me a small a idea of what we were going to do. Sure enough, in the middle of the mall there was the mandatory ice rink.

"You're kidding..." I trailed off making Sunghoon let out a nervous laugh.

"Jake's idea," Sunghoon remarked once again, "I couldn't turn it down. I simply couldn't."

"What? Your ice cold heart just can't resist the ice?" I questioned in amusement, as Sunghoon just glanced down at me a small smile spreading on his face.

"There they are," Sunghoon breathed out, his smile faltering slightly at the look of a pair rushing over towards us, "his girlfriend is called Narae. Quite nice actually... quite calm... perfect fit for Jake."

I let out a small smile before Jake and his girlfriend, Narae, rushed up to us, both happily greeting us, Narae a bit more calm than Jake just like Sunghoon had pointed out.

It turns out we indeed have to go out on the ice, much to Jake's and I dismay. Leaving Narae and Sunghoon to go get skates for all of us, both finding us terribly amusing.

"If you don't like ice skating why did you then come up with the idea?" I let out a small panicked laugh as Jake pulled on his skate.

"I didn't! Narae did!" Jake defended and gestured to his girlfriend, who easily stepped out on the ice, "I can't say no to her Sieun. I simply can't."

"I think the word Jake here is looking for is 'simp'. He simply simps too much over me to say no," Narae excused skating a bit off, making Jake rush to both his feet, only of which one wore a skate.

"No, no, no, don't go away! Get back here!" Jake called out making me let out a small laugh before I felt my hands get swatted away from my skates.

"What are you doing?" I questioned, watching Sunghoon tighten my skates up before tying the laces.

"Helping you into your skates," he nonchalantly replied with a small shrug, smiling as he looked up at me, "I was getting impatient."

I smiled softly as I watched the top of Sunghoon's head, while he just moved over to tie my other skate for me as well. The act didn't seem forced or whatsoever, he actually was genuinely impatient about getting me out on the ice with him.
