( ✦ ) : jaejoong's house

@(♤w) kim jaejoong /carefully takes the book
Extremely deep thought makes my brain hurt.
/looks at the covers, reading the description
I think I watched the movie based on the book once, but I hardly remember anything about it
/rubs off some of the dust before handing it back

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber want some recommendations?
/chuckles and slides my finger across the spines of the books
/stops my finger at a particular book
I like this book
a wrinkle in time.
I read it when I was way younger but it still is a good read. it's deeper than it seems of you ponder about it at night
/laughs
/takes out the book and passes it to you

@(♤w) kim jaejoong Oops.
/shrugs
You have quite a collection.
/watches the dust settle as I walk toward the bookshelf
I don't read as much as I'd like to, actually
/begins to scan the spines

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /continues coughing and puts down the duster
you could've reminded me earlier
/laughs
whatever, come looks at my books!
what books do you usually read?

@(♤w) kim jaejoong /stays back near the door.
It doesn't look too bad. It probably wouldn't take that long to clean.
/tilts my head and watches as you dust
Um... You should probably wear a face mask before trying to clean it though

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber they could. except it's kinda dusty in here.
i come up here to keep books that i have already read but i never bother to clean it up
so it would probably not be suitable for humans here
/laughs and takes a duster to dust my bookshelf
/ends up coughing as i breathe in some dust

@(♤w) kim jaejoong Very nice...
/looks around
Someone could probably live up here.

[As I've said before lol]

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /climbs up opens the door to the attic
my attic!
isn't it pretty darn nice

@(♤w) kim jaejoong /smiles at your enthusiasm
Let's go
/follows you through the house

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber let's start from the top and work our way down
/stands
to the attic!
/smiles and starts walking up the stairs

@(♤w) kim jaejoong /takes a deep breath
Sure. That sounds nice.
/ stands up and puts my empty tea cup in the sink
Where to first?

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber well this conversation is turning out sad
/gives a dry chuckle
what's there to be sorry about. you're just looking around. want a house tour?
/laughs

@(♤w) kim jaejoong No, just looking, sorry.
/sighs
Don't be so sure about that though...
/ smiles sadly

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /shrugs
at least you have more friends than me
/laughs
can't say I am either
/looks at you looking around
looking for something?

@(♤w) kim jaejoong / laughs softly
I'm not popular, but thanks for thinking that, I guess.
/finishes my tea
I'm not very experienced in the relationship department either...
/glances around the kitchen

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /laughs
yeah I thought they were getting married soon but I haven't heard from them in quite some time
/blinks
uh... I don't know? aren't you pretty popular? most popular people aren't into monogamous relationships?
/thinks for a while
or maybe that's just the people I know

@(♤w) kim jaejoong Oh.
/ nods
Yeah, that would be weird.
/ shrugs
I guess that's the kind of stuff people confess when they're drunk though. Last I heard, they're happily engaged and want to marry soon, but it's been a while since I've spoken with either one.
/bites my bottom lip and furrows my eyebrows
Do you think I'm the kind of person who would be a two-timer?

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber I see... That makes sense
/nods
/laughs awkwardly
I... Almost thought he was cheating on Jessica with you
/laughs and looks away

@(♤w) kim jaejoong We try not to tell people because he doesn't want the employees to think I get special treatment.
/quietly drinks my tea for a moment
But...
/tilts my head
What did you think was going on between us?
/looks innocent

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /nods in interest
ohhhh... your brother
I see
/laughs
I almost thought he...
/chuckles
come to think of it you guys look a little like each other

@(♤w) kim jaejoong Uh...
/tries to think of something to talk about
Oh yeah, about Donghae-
/tries to think of the best way to say it
We don't live together, but he comes to my place sometimes.
/sips tea
He's my older brother
/mumbles

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /hums
I don't mind
/smiles
/sits next to you
/rests my chin on my palm
so talk, girly

@(♤w) kim jaejoong I don't think I can sleep right now.
/looks into my cup
Too much going on in my head and with my body...
/drinks more tea
Would you mind if we just talk for a while?

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber hey it's fine
/laughs
it's partially my fault anyway
/sips at my tea
oh you're feeling better. good.
/smiles
/finishes my tea
/walks over to the basin to wash my cup
you should get some rest too

@(♤w) kim jaejoong Thanks
/sits across from you
And again, I'm sorry about all this
/takes a small sip of the tea
I am starting to feel a little better though
/mumbles
Even though I got pretty dizzy earlier...
/drinks some more of the tea

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber /walks back to the kitchen to finish making the tea
/sits at the island in the kitchen and sips my own cup of tea after placing yours on the other side of the island
/looks up when I hear footsteps
oh you're done.
your tea
/points to the cup I made for you

@(♤w) kim jaejoong Oh...
/ sighs in relief
Okay. I'll try to hurry up.
/slowly stands back up again and turns the water back on so I can rinse off
/gets out of the shower, finds a towel and dries off
/ checks my clothes to see if anything is clean enough to put back on before retrieving the clothes from outside the door
/wears my shorts and underwear and your tank and shirt
/makes my way to the kitchen with damp hair

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber what? I'm just leaving the clothes here
/laughs
what? you're embarrassed?
/puts the clothes down
you can come to the kitchen after you're done
I made some chamomile tea

@(♤w) kim jaejoong /hears you coming and panics
Uh- I'm okay! I swear, I'm fine!
/shouts unsure of what else to do

@(♡cs/b/s) liu amber oh oh I forgot to get the clothes
/scratches my jaw
/walks up to my room to get a tank top and a tee
er I guess this is okay
/walks to the bathroom to leave the stuff in front of the door
