{' His smug expression sent a small bubble of laughter from her lips-- although slightly unbelieving. It had been a while since she'd come across a man so certain in his nature, and it was indeed a nice change from such permanent reservedness. } If you say so, Jayce. {' She said with a soft smile. } Speaking of that... Jayce... I can't say I've heard that name before. At least not here.
There’s a first time for everything. {‘his voice was a hum, unshaken by the other’s laughter. it wasn’t the first time he’s heard that type of laughter before, it was too familiar to him and almost numbing}
It’s an English name. A diminutive of “Jason”. You know, with the Argonauts? {‘he mimicked rowing a boat, trying to familiarize the other with the legend}
It’s about that time of year, lovelies. The one with the flowers and the chocolates, singles both ready to mingle and some who prefer solitude, cavity inducing couples hanging around—anyways!
We have decided to hold a small event for gxssip’s very first Valentine’s day!
For this event we will be anonymously pairing participants with each other as the elusive secret valentine. We hope that this will be a step towards the family becoming closer by having those of you wanting to join, interacting with someone that maybe you haven’t spoken with very much. With that, anyone in a relationship is free to join as well though we will not tolerate anything even testing the border of platonic if they are seeing someone — just be friendly!
Please reblog this post to spread the word and if you would like to participate please like the post!
All members wishing to participate must like this post by 8pm EST February 9th!
Oh, {`he blinks, is head extended up a little} I’ve never met a guy named Jayce before. Well, anyway, how’s it going?
I’ve never met a guy named Luhan either. {‘he grins} Not too bad, actually. {'he nods slowly, as if confirming his statement himself} Getting settled in a new country is not as bad as it seems… Didn’t realize Seoul was so much like New York City. {'he shrugs} and you?
Maybe, maybe not. { `shrugs.} Guessing you are some sort of escort by the means of your words then. { `leaning back into the chair, he drums his fingers idly on the wooden table.} Prove it. Pay for my coffee and muffin then we’ll see.
The word “escort” is an understatement for my job. {‘moves to sit across from you} It’s far more complicated than that. {'waves a dismissive hand}
Tsk. I’m the new kid around here, shouldn’t you be the one spoiling me? {'puts his elbow on the table, leaning his chin against his hand as he gives you a small, childish pout}
Really now? {' She mused, her eyebrows raising slightly from behind bleached bangs. The others grin was infectious, and she felt one of her own twisting at her pale pink lips. } Jayce, it's a pleasure... {' She trailed off, and slowing took the proffered hand into her own and gave it a slight shake. } The name's Hyuna.
Positive. {‘he nods, a proud grin on his face}
Hyuna. {'he repeats the name to himself, it wasn’t a difficult name to pronounce – even with a touch of his American accent, much to his relief. he removes his hand from yours before he gives you a lazy grin, but a twinkle of mischief and curiosity twinkling in his eye}
Let’s be real, if I don’t get in some sort of scandal, it would mean the queen has died a little. -she said with a sigh- I already know you’re going to be in a shit load of scandals soon.
Well I did manage to take over Manhattan and the Upper East side, how hard can Seoul be? -she shrugged, smiling at him- Plus, being the heiress to one of the biggest luxury brand importer doesn’t hurt.
A little? More like buried six feet under. {‘he scoffs, his tone still lighthearted and teasing}
Hm? And what makes you say that, my dear? {'he takes off his hat and runs his fingers through the platinum locks, giving them a disheveled look (there was no point really, the hat would cover it up anyways)} I am a changed man from the boy you knew in New York City. I’m Korean now, there’s no turning back. {'his eyes twinkle in mischief as he pats his chest proudly}
Ooh. Using your daddy’s name to tarnish it. Classy. {'grins}
I don't think I've seen you around before. Are you new here? {' She says, tone slightly confounded as she looks upon the other with a curious tilt of her head. }
Mm. Don’t think so. You’d remember a face like mine. {‘he hums before tilting his head, giving you a cheeky grin} the name’s Jayce. {'he holds out his hand, the smile faint but still present in his expression} And you are…?
Of course, it wouldn’t be me without an overload of optimism. -she replied back in English with a small smile, crossing her arms- I only arrived in Seoul a week ago, I’ve been spending my time indulging in massages. As a way to get rid of the jet lag, of course. Hmmm none of that just yet.
Yet? {‘he raises an eyebrow before letting out a low chuckle, shaking his head} Well, I guess there would be no Bang Minah without the scandals.
So how do you plan on taking over Seoul? {'he lets go of your shoulders before crossing his arms, a curious brow raised and a playful smirk gracing his features}
Aw, you know how I feel about the word destiny. -chuckles a bit, not pushing him away like she would normally do- It’s a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen.
Still as optimistic as ever. Miss Bang. {‘he replies in English, his voice a cheerful hum as he pulls you in closer} so what have you been up to? Breaking any more hearts? You haven’t made any news headlines yet, have you?
