HeuSeoh let out a weak smile and nod. "I was a little worried you'd be mad, it's just there was something I wanted to surprise you with, but this ended up being a good spot to go." He admitted, proving that this had, in fact, been relatively spontaneous.

Morgan nodded again, this time more confused than before. "Awwww, I'm not mad. I mean, I missed you a whole bunch, but I understand why you were so busy. I'd rather have it be because of a job and not because you're trying to ignore me or something." She began racking her brain, trying to think of what he could possibly have to surprise her with. Is it another dance tape or something?

HeuSeoh smiled, glad Morgan wasn't mad. Now that he thought about it though, Morgan didn't really seem the type to get mad over something like this. But.... Better safe than sorry. He thought, right as a girl that looked a little older than him came up to give them a table. "Oh, HeuSeoh, is this the girlfriend you keep reminding me about?" She asked him teasingly. Since he had begun work, he had become closest to her, as she was next closest in age from him, having just graduated from Riverside University and now saving up money to get her own apartment. Though she admittedly had a small crush on HeuSeoh when he first joined the crew, she backed off once she found out he had a girlfriend. HeuSeoh nodded simply, "Yes, April, this is my girlfriend, Morgan; Morgan, my co-worker, April." He said, gesturing respectfully to both of the girls. April winked and smiled to Morgan, "I'll make sure you guys get good service." she promised them.

Flashing the girl a friendly smile, Morgan politely extended her hand out. "Nice to meet ya," she said, winking back at her. Even though she wasn't upset about HeuSeoh's new job, she couldn't help but wonder other things. How long had he been working there? Why didn't he tell her about it? What was this big surprise? "Awwww, you're been talking about me? All good things I hope." It was good to hear that she had been mentioned before. At least he hadn't forgotten completely about her.

April shook Morgan's hand and gave her a smile."You're lucky." "Of course," HeuSeoh replied in an answer to Morgan's question. Before April could tease him anymore. He flashed his coworker a look as if saying, not in front of my girlfriend, only to receive a small pout from the girl. As they finally arrived at their table, HeuSeoh pulled out Morgan's chair and waited for her to sit down before sitting on the other side of her. "So, we'll eat first, then there's something I wanted to show you..." He said, trying to explain the game plan to Morgan, the last part more hesitantly than the first.

Morgan giggled as he answered her question and pulled out her chair. "Geez, HeuSeoh, I can answer my own question," she said jokingly as she sat down. "You're both right though. I'm very lucky. In fact, I'm the most luckiest girl in the whole wide world." She raised an eyebrow at his next, more cryptic statement. At first she was excited about his surprise, but his tone of voice caused her to become a little worried. He didn't sound too happy or excited. Was it a bad surprise? She felt silly for even thinking that, since tonight was supposed to be a way for making up for her birthday, but she couldn't help her confusion.

After they had finished eating, HeuSeoh had to consciously quell the butterflies in his stomach. This "surprise" he kept mentioning to Morgan was more of a gigantic leap forward in their relationship. However, he needed someone to live with him if he wanted to move out of the dorms, and Junsu and GenShi had so heartlessly abandoned him to live with their own significant others. Okay, Junsu's understandable. But if GenShi can live with her boyfriend, why can't I live with my girlfriend? He wondered to himself, biting his lip unconsciously, belatedly realizing he was uncharacteristically quiet, though also characteristically spacing out. He pulled out his wallet to pay the bill, happy to see they got quite a substantial discount. Placing the money over the check, he smiled to Morgan, though his nervousness showed on his face. "The surprise is on the way back to campus." He explained.

Morgan was surprised at how quickly dinner seemed to pass. She was even more surprised at how much she liked the food. She'd enjoyed the Japanese food that they had eaten in Mabtown, but she wasn't sure if she'd like eating it from another restaurant. However, she was still as confused as ever about HeuSeoh. He had been acting really strange all throughout dinner. It wasn't like him to be so quiet. Did I do something wrong? She got up from the table and smiled back at him. "It is?" she asked, trying to think of what could possibly be on the way back. "Did you leave it at your mom's house or something?"

HeuSeoh let out a small chuckle. "Not quite... It's uh... bigger than that." He told her, casually intertwining her fingers with his own. He still felt butterflies seeming to turn into something bigger-pterodactyls maybe?-as they neared closer to the apartment building situated perfectly between his work and the campus.
Once they finally arrived at the apartment building, he brought Morgan up a flight of stairs and stood in front of a door labeled 2A. Taking in a deep breath that seemed to involve his entire body instead of his lungs, he took the leap. "This apartment is for rent..." He began, trying to read Morgan's face as well as possible. "I was thinking maybe... we should live here." He asked, his body becoming a little more meek and shy, hands now in his pockets and eyebrows raised.

Morgan clutched his hand tightly and headed up the stairs, her eyes glancing around at the unfamiliar surroundings. Where are we? Is he introducing me to someone? She had no idea who she could possibly meeting. She'd met his mother and siblings on various occasions. The only person she hadn't met was his father and she had very little to say to him that didn't involve a four letter word of some sort.
She was left completely in the dark until he stopped in front of the door and finally explained their purpose for being there. "We?" she asked, finally finding her voice. "You want me to live with you?" So many questions ran through her head. She paused for a moment and bit her lip, wondering which question to ask first.

HeuSeoh nodded, only seeing her hesitation as he began a ramble. "It's not like you have to decide right now, I just told the manager I was interested if I could get you to agree and I think it'd be really nice to get to live together and my older sister and brother are living with their significant others now and I was just thinking why..." he finally paused to take a breath, "why can't we?"

Morgan remained silent as she tried to pick the right question to ask first. There was so much to consider. It was a huge upgrade in their relationship; it was as though he had just asked her to marry him. Is that why he wanted her to live with him? Was he about to propose? She was absolutely positive that she would say yes whether he did or not, but all these doubts kept running through her head. She hated that they were there. She was always such a confident person that managed to ignore everything negative. Why were all these bad thoughts in her brain? "I," she began, trying to begin with the smallest concern that she had. "I-I don't have a job. I'd have to get a job to help pay the rent. I mean, I can't ask you to pay all the time because that's not fair to you and I'd feel really bad because you'd be supporting me.....I'm sorry I'm being so weird right now. Just have so much on my mind. Maybe I should go run around or something." She laughed a little, trying to morph back into the goofy girl that he liked.

HeuSeoh nodded, trying to hide the bit of disappointment. "Like I said, you don't have to decide now." He reminded her. "And you can get a job, if you want." He looked to the floor, then back up at her, "I know this would be a big step for us, but I just thought... Maybe it'd be fun." He told her, a half-weakened, half-playful smile on his face.

Morgan smiled back at him. "Yeah, it would be fun." Her mind began to wander some more as she thought of what it would be like to live with him. She thought of them eating breakfast together and watching cartoons on Saturday morning. She thought of them dancing around the apartment and trying to break dance in the middle of the living room. She thought of them having a pillow fight some time. Living with him had tons of advantages, the main one being that she could see him every single day. Still, she couldn't help voicing her other main concern. "Is it a one bedroom or a two bedroom? Because if it's a one bedroom that means we'd have to sleep in the same bed and I wasn't sure how you felt about that because we've never....you know....before. I mean, I wouldn't mind if we did....I've thought of it, but I didn't know if you wanted to or if you said you wanted to because I wanted to..." She looked down at the floor to hide her bright red face.

HeuSeoh's eyes widened. I hadn't thought about that... he realized before replying shyly, "I-It's a one-bedroom..." He wasn't going to lie, he had also thought of that, especially the time his mother let them hang out in his room alone, but even thinking of voicing it caused a bright red glow to form on his cheeks, and all he could manage out was a couple extra stutters.
