Sayu fidgeted in her chair. She was in the lounge part of a hotel, made to wait by Jessica for whatever reason. The vampire was late last time they met as well, but she wasn’t so impatient this time. If gave her time to think.
Taemin was most likely going to try to keep the meeting from happening in the first place, so he should either be on his way or already here since Jessica is late. Either way he should arrive before she does, shouldn’t he? She was looking around for him and thought to go check outside. It would only be a minute.
Sayu stood, gathering her bag and started to march for the door. Before she took a second step someone cleared their throat from very near her and she turned to see Joon. He waved and leaned over towards her to whisper, “You know my warning makes us even, right? Whatever happens it’s your fault for not listening.”
“What warning?” She looked confused as he motioned for him to follow her and she did.
As they walked to the elevators he laughed a little, “Oh so you didn’t read the card? This meeting makes more sense to me now, I didn’t think you were this stupid on purpose.”
“You make it sound like I’m walking straight to my death.”
“Aren’t you?”
They were nearly to the elevators when she stopped and he kept going, pressing the up button and turning back. He shrugged when he said, “Not too late to turn back now, but I think you’ll owe me for this one.”
She came closer to stand with him and looked at the numbers on the elevator slowly count down. “No, I am confident I will not be dying tonight. Thank you for the offer, and the missed warning, but I knew this was risky when I made the meeting.”
“Sure, sure, so how pissed is Jongie right now?”
“He’s sleeping.” She kept her eyes forward and Joon looked at her sideways kind of pitying her. “So how much do you owe Jessica this time or are you helping her out of the goodness of your heart?”
“Ouch, well I owe her enough to be fetching one bonded for her, at least. Once you’re in there I’m out.” The doors finally opened and she stepped in first, turning to face the front as Joon stepped in after. When the elevator started to shut its doors, Sayu caught sight of Taemin running in from the front of the lobby straight for them.
“Hey hold the elevator!” He called, trying to get their attention.
Joon smirked and reached to hold the doors for him. Sayu pushed on his arm to hinder him and looked up to him, “No he’ll screw everything up.”
Her strength wasn’t a match for his and he simply just reached forward just before the doors shut, “Too late, he’s been seen.”
Taemin caught up to them and stopped inside the elevator, almost out of breath as the doors shut behind him. Joon looked amused to Sayu and put his hands in his pockets, “So,” he glanced to Taemin, “Is this your plus one?”
