"Oh! Are you okay?" Ho-Soon said in his gentle voice and held out a hand to help her up

"it's fine. You're not hurt, are you?" He asked, making sure she was

"I'm fine, don't worry about it" He smiled reassuringly. His shoulder did hurt a bit, but it wasn't that bad.

"Ho-Soon. Nice to meet you!" He said, giving her a slight bow

"only being polite" He said with a smile. His friends were 'oooh'ing him, seeing him talking to a girl. He looked over at them scrunching his nose at them a little. "Don't mind them"

He nodded. "Yeah. I've never really had a proper date, they all think I'm too nerdy or something, I don't know" He scoffed

He giggled. His friends had gone off somewhere. He looked around a little but I guess they'd wandered into the crowd. He shrugged "Looks like it's just us now"

"This dance kinda sucks. It's up to you where you wanna go." He said, shrugging. He'd always hated parties because he never had anyone to go with and thought it was boring if you weren't with anyone

"sure, I guess we'll just go for a walk and see where it takes us" Outside, it was getting cold. Assuming she was wearing some kind of dress (idk tho), she was probably gonna be cold. Same with the shoes she was wearing, they weren't very walk friendly. "Are you gonna be alright walking around in these clothes?"

"you're gonna be cold, and your feet will be aching. We could go to mine first and you could borrow some clothes if you want?" He asked, that was the first thing he could think of at the moment

He nodded, giving her his blazer for the walk back. When they got to his house, he took his shoes off, showing her to his room. It was a cozy house, very warm

"it's okay, I just want you to feel comfortable when we're outside. It's so cold out." He said, looking through his closet. He pulled out some cozy joggers and hoodie and gave them to her. "They might be a little big sorry"

He smiled when she came back to the living room. Ho-Soon had also changed into comfier clothes and shoes. "You ready to go?"

"it's fine, I just didn't want you to get cold. Aigoo, those shoes looked really uncomfortable too" He said to her, stretching a little. He shivered going from the warm house to the cold outdoors, and he grabbed a long scarf before leaving the house. He made sure he had a key to the house before leaving again

"yeah, let's go there then" He said, walking along beside her

"I know this probably feels awkward for you since we just met, don't worry, it's kinda awkward for me too"

"I don't really hang out with girls either so I guess it's something new for both of us" He laughed awkwardly too

"yeah.. but I don't really want to talk to their girlfriends. I'm afraid they'd take it the wrong way" He said, sitting beside her on a bench

"I've seen you in my maths class. I've got to say, you have caught my eye a few times there" He laughed awkwardly, getting embarrassed that he'd even say such a thing

"that class is quite boring though. I try my best to study well and stay awake, but it's always in the morning and I'm barely awake" He complained, his accent seeming more prominent as he did so

He laughed. It was nice hanging out with her. Soon enough, they had to go home

"get home safely, I'll bring you your shoes and dress to you tomorrow" He said, giving her a bow back

He waved as he walked home, making sure she headed off safe before going on his way home. He saw her again the next day at school. He was doing some homework alone.

"Annyeong, I'm okay thanks. How are you?"

"that's good" He said gently
