After Story

Visiting

~~~~

Saeyoung's message had V lifting the phone yet again, peering at it carefully before the second one was received just as quickly. Sometimes he wondered how Seven could type so fast.

Tilting his head to the side as he read the second one, Jihyun realized that it was likely now or never to ask the other to simply hang out, though he found himself unable to respond for a good three or four minutes. He kept absently typing up a message, but ended up deleting it before he could press the send button. In fact, he was debating on if he should just say nothing was up and that everything was perfectly fine.

Sighing though, Jihyun decided that he might as well try rather then just come all this way again and ignore the urge for human contact.

Quickly he typed up a message and pressed send before he could really think about it.

'Nothing is really wrong, no, I was simply getting a few errands done and finished up rather quickly. I was wondering if you'd perhaps like to hang out when you're done with your work?'

V reread the message a few times even after it already sent, a small sigh leaving his lips as he waited for an answer.

Saeyoung had finished most of his work by now. And was munching on a few of his honey buddah chips when he heard his phone beep for the third time. The male quickly looked at his phone and read what V had said. To be honest, he secretly missed the older male, and eagerly wanted to see him in person again. He smiled happily when he had finished reading V's message. He grabbed his phone with one of his hands again and replied,

'Oh, about that... I'm sorry V, but I'm afraid that my boss has JUST told me that I have another project to work on after this, and it might take the whole day again ;; (insert Saeyoung's siiiigh emoji here)' 

He sent the message and waited a few seconds, but wrote afterwards,

'Just kidding!~ lolol I bet I got you for a second didn't I?~ Of course, I would love to! It's been so long since we've seen each other in person! (Insert Saeyoung's 'hello!' emoji here)' 

Sent.

Seven's next reply had V quickly lifting his phone and reading said message, though a soft ugh left his lips as he reread the message that had been sent. They really did work Luciel to the bone, hm?

Disappointment had only just taken hold of V when he received the second message and he had to chuckle at the redhead's antics, shaking his head in a fond way as he sent first his own sighing emoji, then a message in response.

'I almost believed you there for a second, Luciel.' Shifting, he pressed a hand to the fence and then began walking towards the man's front gate, already knowing by now that it would be locked with a password like usual.

As he did so, he carefully typed up another message while walking.

'It has been quite a while. I must admit I missed the time we have spent together before.' Which is why Jihyun was here now. He would never admit it to anyone besides perhaps Jumin and Seven himself. Usually he wouldn't even admit it to them, as he was a very private person.

'I may or may not already be here, so if you'd be so kind as to open the gate...'

The red-headed hacker had finally finished the last of his work when he saw V's message to come open the door for him. 

'Oh hehe, yeah! I'll be right there in three... Two...' Saeyoung had replied and sent the message as he was walking, or rather scurrying towards the entrance of his house, pressing on a button that automatically opens the doorway, revealing his loyal friend behind it. 

"Hello, V!~"

Boy, how Saeyoung wanted to hug the life out of the other male that was standing in front of him at the moment, but decided to let him come in first by stepping back and aside a little from the entrance.

"Come on in and have a seat or anything! Glad to see you! Heh." He chuckled slightly.

At the message he received, V chuckled softly and finished off the count in his own head, thinking of the word 'One' just as Seven opened the door and revealed himself.

He couldn't see Luciel perfectly. The only way he knew it was him was because of the bright red hair, and the other's voice. Seeing and hearing the man was a comfort in its own, and he found himself smiling lightly at the other's sing song hello.

"Luciel." He greeted gently, stepping inside as the man stepped aside to let him in.

Jihyun found himself captivated with his friend, as per usual. The redhead always had something about him that drew his eyes, even when he could barely see the other.

"It's good to see you too." He murmured, though it was a joke in itself. Quietly, he toed off his shoes and padded slowly down the hall, pressing a hand to the wall and waiting for Luciel before he moved further.

"It's been far too long since we have talked to each other in person. I miss our chats."

"Yes it has! I have to admit, that I miss our chats as well. Hehe~" Saeyoung turned towards the other male and smiled, as he was walking over, leading V towards the living room.

"Come and have a seat! Do you want anything to eat or drink?" The dorky hacker questioned V, as he gestures him to sit down on his wife clean (for once) and comfortable couch. "I have water, Dr. Pepper, and lemonade for the drinks, and honney buddah chips, and I think I have a little bit of popcorn left for the snacks!" Saeyoung said with a happy tone in his voice as he waited for V to come sit down.

"But Eh.. Sorry if I don't really have anything really that... healthy...  Ehehe.." He said while laughing akwardly a bit, and scratching the back of his head a little.

Jihyun was surprised that the area was fairly clean for once, as the last time he'd been here it had been quite a bit dirtier. Quietly, he took a seat and looked in the direction that he heard Luciel's voice coming from.

"I'm good on food for now - though could I perhaps have some water?" He asked hesitantly, even if he knew Luciel was always happy to comply.

A soft smile curled his lips as the other seemed a little embarassed not to have anything healthy, and for once Jihyun wouldn't nag him for it.

"It's quite alright, Luciel. We can always order food later if we get hungry." He claimed, as that's how they used to do it when Jihyun found his way over. While V was a very picky eater and preferred healthier foods, he sometimes allowed himself to go off of his diet and eat unhealthy food - usually only when he was with his friends.

Blurry hues shifted around the room quickly, as if he could see properly and was taking in how the room looked. Quietly, he pushed his glasses further up onto his nose as if to try and hide those horribly blind eyes of his.

 "Yeah, of course! I'll be right back in a jiffy!~" Saeyoung spoke to V as he went towards the kitchen, and grabbed a fairly normal sized glass from the cabinets up above. He then filled it up with water that was just the right temperature, then went back to the living room.  

"Here you go!" The hacker smiled and handed V's drink to him kindly, with a can of Dr.pepper for himself in his other hand. When V had asked how was the RFA doing, Saeyoung took a seat right next to him while opening his can of soda.

 "How has the R.F.A. been lately? I apologize for not coming on as often as I should."  V turned towards the ginger after grabbing the cup of water that he could barely see.

"I guess we've been all doing pretty well, I mean almost everybody has been getting along pretty well with each other, you know, as always! You probably know this, but I heard Jumin is starting some kind of new business relating to cats again, and I might as well volunteer to help!~" Saeyoung laughed a little and took a quick sip out of the can. Then he looked at V with sincere eyes and a smile. "You don't need to apologize V, I know how busy you always were."

"Thank you for understanding.." The blue haired male chuckled a bit at Saeyoung's remark, and had smiled lightly towards the other. "But anyways, how have things been with you?" 

"Me?" Saeyoung had questioned. "The same old thing, also known as saving the world. You know, the usual!" The crimson haired male had laughed slightly.

"Wouldn't have guessed." V teased as he internally wished that the agency would at least let the male have a break at some point in time. "But I'm glad you're enjoying your time at least." 

"Of course I am! I mean why wouldn't I be?" Saeyoung smiled.
