@shim hyunseong Oh wow, I don't even want to think about it. Those years are blocked out of my mind. /narrows my eyes at you slightly/ me, though. I'm sure seventeen year old Shim Hyunseong was a true Casanova.
/purses mt lips thoughtfully/ I guess you're right. Kind of reminds me of when I was a kid and I would slow dance with my momma, and I'd stand on her feet and she'd dance us around. /crinkles my nose at you and shakes my head/ I bet you wouldn't. /flutters my lashes at you/ I don't know about "couple goals" but I guess our babies would be pretty cutest babies to exist.
@shin jiho Hm.. true. But I bet high school shin jiho was a real charmer huh?
*snorts playfully before giving you a grin, matched with a teasing of wiggling my brows*
Well you’re doing a pretty good job and plus we aren’t doing the tango of anything. Just standing here and swaying side to side with music.
*chuckling softly when I see you making sure you wouldn’t step on my, keeping the pace slow and when I met your gaze again I gave a reassuring smile and nod to ensure you were doing well, the kiss on my cheek making my smile widen*
I wouldn’t say no if you wanted to eat me up baby. Which had me thinking, if we had kids they’d be the cutest babies ever. So yes, cute power couple. We’re couple goals.
@shim hyunseong I don't think I've missed out on too much except for embarrassment. /crinkles my nose at the thought of high school/
I'm not too good at slow dances in general. /glances down at our feet to make sure that I don't accidentally step on you/ partner dances are harder than dancing by yourself.
/flicks my eyes back up to meet yours and beams at you, leaning forward to press a kiss to your cheek/ cos it's true babe, you're just so adorable I wanna eat you up. /shakes my head slightly/
cute power couple. /snorts/ if you say so.
@shin jiho Seems like you missed out, these days it’s probably different. My type is more of the.. 80s 90s slow dance.
*lets out a small laugh and gives a shrug of my shoulders before leaning into your more, looking into your eyes and taking notice of the design of your iris before I’m grabbed back into reality, your fingers that move so gracefully at my skin, blinking before chuckling*
You say that often, we often say it to each other. We just one cute power couple.
@shim hyunseong /watches you for a moment, blinking at the statement before my face contorts in amusement and a laugh escapes from my mouth/
I didn't go to many dances in high school, so I never learned how to high school slow dance.
/steps closer as you lead the dance, pressing my chest against yours, one of my hands cradling the back of your neck, and the other causally dipping beneath the neckline of your shirt, my fingers lightly dancing along the skin there/
You're so cute.
@shin jiho *keeping my eyes on you as I take a moment of silence to look at your expression, pressing a small kiss to your cheek before letting you go, going towards the stereo and inserting a cd; playing a few of the more ballady songs on the playlist I’ve created before*
You know we’ve never been dancing before, like high school slow dancing.
*walking over to you again I take your hands and guide them to class together behind my neck, snaking arms around your waist and slowly leading you to stepping side to side, swaying with the music*
@shim hyunseong /blinks as you pull me back against you, my eyes squinting to adjust to the brighter light/ Nothing is wrong. /leans my head against yours for a moment before trying to walk forward again then stopping/ I just thought we could change scenery since we aren't eating anymore.
@shin jiho *looks towards the plate and nods softly before looking back at you and chuckles lightly, folding my hands together in my lap as I keep quiet in order to listen, following after you with the rest of the plates, setting them into the sink, keeping my eyes on you all the while until the running water is turned off*
Baby.
*walking after you I dim the light up before I can somehow manage to wrap my arms around you, pulling your back to my chest as I tightened my embrace, looking at you over your shoulder*
Is everything alright? I get the feeling something is off, what’s wrong?
@shim hyunseong /sends a glance tp the cake on the table with a hum/ it is pretty great, hm.
/my eyes narrowing at you slightly before I scoff softly/
Scared isn't the word I would use, maybe. /I quirk a brow at your antics, shaking my head and turning away from you/
Yes, you should thank your trainer, maybe pay them a little extra. /picks up my empty plates from the table and turns on my heel to carry them into the kitchen/ you're so cute, babe. Thank your parents tonight, too. /rinsing the plates before setting them into the dishwasher and wandering back out of the kitchen and into the still darkened space of the livingroom/ for your such great genes.
@shin jiho Well that too cause I had just a small sample and it was delicious.
*gives a playful wiggle of my brows before chuckling and watches as you yourself admire the ring on your finger, the sight itself also being awe struck to me, listening to you intently before letting out a laugh and resting my chin on my palm*
Strange and too forward, wow I must have scared you a bit. But thankfully my face and arms were able to charm you enough to make you mine. I guess I’ll have to thank my trainer and the gym for being able to help me get such arms. Oh yeah and my parents, for giving me such good genes.
*grins and flexes my free arm, turning to look at it and giving my bicep a kiss before looking back at you with my own coy smile*
@shim hyunseong I hadn't thought that much into it, I just assumed you wanted me to appreciate the flavors, or something like that.
/chuckles and shakes my head slightly, blinking slowly at you/
Of course, Honey. I wouldn't expect anything otherwise from you.
/watches you quietly as you take my hand in yours and slip the ring on, my heart stuttering in my chest at the sight and my breaths pausing, blinking against the sudden surge of emotion, my body tenses a little when your gaze finds mine again, my hand curling around yours as I allow myself to take in a breath/
Why you...? /I parrot back at you, my brows drawing downwards in confusion before my mouth parts slightly in understanding/
You know, I'm not too sure, myself. When we first met, I thought you were a bit strange and that you were way too forward.
/uncurls my fingers from around yours to admire the ring, bringing my hand up closer to my face to get a better look/
But you were surprisingly easy for me to like. I fell for your bright personality and your easy-going nature. Your cheesy lines may have got you a few brownie points. /I glance back at you, shooting you a coy smile/ and I guess your face isn't too bad, but I think mostly it was the arms that did it for me.
@shin jiho I did, that’s true. I was partially afriad you’d be asking me why and if there’s something there.
*scrunches my nose lightly and returns the kiss before smiling widely*
Oh baby you know when I propose to you I’ll make it the cheesiest thing ever.
*letting out a happy sigh, my smile softening then when I see your hand outstretched with your finger wiggling around I chuckle, taking your left hand before slowly sliding the ring into your third finger, taking a moment to admire the sight and swearing to myself there was an aura around your hand, my smile widening then looking up at you*
I’m curious, why exactly.. I meant why me?
@shim hyunseong You kind of hinted at it, though, babe.
/squishes your cheeks before leaning in to peck your pouted lips/
I only want it to be as authentic and cheesy as possible. True to form.
/peers at you affectionately for a moment before pulling away completely and holding out my hand with a small smile, wiggling my fingers slightly in a beckon for you to put the ring on for me/
@shin jiho *lets out a laugh and gives a small shrug*
If I told you there was something in there it’d ruin the whole surprise.
*eyes widen slightly before laughing and shaking my head in amusement, humming softly as I looked at you*
Only you’d say no for such a thing but now I know and I’ll make sure to go down on one knee.
*making a fist around the ring in order to hold onto it when I hugged you, pressing my face against your head as I listened to you with a fond smile, meeting your line of sight once you pulled away, leaning into your touch*
I don’t see the point of living if I don’t make you happy baby. Falling in love with you has been the best thing ever and every single day with you is more than just a mere day, it’s an adventure. I love you, shin jiho.
@shim hyunseong /rolls my eyes dramatically as I lift the fork away from the plate, eyeing the sphere curiously and chuckling/ "eat carefully" I should have known something was in there. /sets my fork down as I watch you tinker with the little sphere before pausing as I blink at the ring in your hand/
/stares at the ring in your hand as I listen to you speak, a small smile spreading across my lips as you finish and I flick my eyes back up to you/ would it have been really awkward if I had said no to a proposal cos you didn't kneel? /chuckles softly as I push myself up from my chair to wrap my arms around you/ I'm so thankful to have you in my life, Hyunseong, really. You're much too considerate of me. /pulls back slightly to rest my hands on your cheeks/ You mean the world to me, babe. You make me so happy, and I love you so much.
@shin jiho You’re too sweet baby, probably sweeter than this cake.
*laughs hearing your joke and shake my head in amusement before watching as you poke around and once I hear the small thud of your fork hitting the surprise I help take it out, a small sphere like you’d see in those coin toy machines*
I know it’s not much with the massage, dinner, and this but I hope it’s enough.
*chuckles nervously and clears my throat, after taking out the object which was inside it I lay it rest in my palm, a silver ring or more like a silver band with a diamond embedded into the center, looking at you*
Now don’t freak out, this is just like a promise ring. To show that my love for you will never wither away, that a future with you is what I plan, and that I love you today, tomorrow, the day after, and forever. Valentine’s may be a day to show love but with you everyday is valentine’s day so honestly there’s really no need for it, though theres nothing wrong with a reminded to tell me that I’ve gotten another day to show you how much you mean to me.
@shim hyunseong I don't think it was lame or uncool.. /I twirl the fork in my mouth as I peer at you/ It was really thoughtful and I appreciate it a lot. /blinks at you when you hold my wrist/
A surprise? /I look from you to the cake a bit suspiciously as I twist the fork between my fingers/
It's not like, laxatives or a finger or something, right? /I joke light-heartedly as I poke my fork around inside the cake in front of me/
@shin jiho *my elbow leans against the table as I watch you eat it with a smile and lets out a small sigh of content*
This valentine’s may have seemed lame and uncool but I hope my little antics were good enough. I wish I had more time to plan this.
*my smile grows wider and as you get deeper into the cake I gently grip your wrist to stop you from taking anymore*
Before you eat anymore you should dig through it a bit now, there’s something in there. A surprise.
@shim hyunseong /takes the fork/ thank you. /turns the plate in front of me slightly/ it's so pretty. /I pout slightly, swiping some of the frosting off and it off the fork before cutting a piece of the cake and putting it into my mouth, humming in delight at the sweetness/
It's so good. /nods my head slightly, as I go in for another small forkful of the dessert/
@shin jiho *walking over I place the slice in front of you while moving away the other plate, smiling widely as I look at you*
So I got this at the store actually and I think you’ll like it. Just take your time eating it.. although the day is coming to an end fast so that explains why I’m moving so quickly
*chuckles and sits down next to you as I hand you a new fork*
@shim hyunseong /sets my fork down and picks up a napkin, wiping at my mouth and clearing my throat/ that's really cute. /I mutter to myself with a small smile, blinking and lifting my eyes up from my empty plate to the cake in your hands/ oh, how pretty.
@shin jiho Well I had to cook then taste then recook if it wasn’t good-
*laughs awkwardly before shaking my head and heading off to the kitchen, going to the fridge and taking out a slice of red velvet cake, decorated with chocolate rose petals then coming back*
Alright you ready for dessert?
@shim hyunseong /smiles at you and pops the piece of chicken into my mouth/ that's cute, babe. /nods my head and looks back down at my plate/ "a bit edible" /huffs out a laugh/ how many times did you try?
/picks up another forkful with a nod/
Alright, you do that.
@shin jiho *let’s out a small sigh and chuckles softly before rubbing my nape gently and looks at you with a smile*
Well I’m just glad it’s a bit edible and I’m not so hungry— I’ve been taste testing so much so my hunger is gone
*lets out a laugh and stands up, pointing to the kitchen*
I’m just gonna go grab the dessert and be right back
@shim hyunseong /raises my eyebrows, and tilts my head/ It has an interesting taste. /scoops some more into my mouth, and nods my head/ It's pretty ok. /forks a piece of chicken and looks at you again, chuckling/
Are you going to eat any?
@shin jiho Oh nothing just— it’s nothing
*chuckles as you look at me and I take my fork to begin poking at my food before glancing at you again, watching you lift the food into your mouth, breaking a cold sweat from how slow it had appeared to me*
So.. how does it taste?
@shim hyunseong Thank you. /looking down at my plate as I pick up a fork, glances up at you amusedly/ what? /takes a fork full of the casserole and pops the fork into my mouth, humming at the taste/
@shin jiho *glances over at you with a smile and nods, once you take your seat I go towards mine and gulp nervously with a grin, chuckling softly and takes the spoon as I scoop out a decent amount to your plate*
Well I’ve cooked before but it was most like helping someone cook. This was my first cooking alone and all that.
*seats down in my seat once I give myself a scoop, watching you*
@shim hyunseong /hums thoughtfully/ well, we'll see how it turned out. /blinks as my eyes adjust to the brighter lights in the kitchen/
It doesn't look too bad. /peers at you with a small smile/ it's the thought that counts, hm? /squeezes your hand as we arive at the table, and I take a seat, sending you an amused smile/ you've really never cooked before?
@shin jiho *playfulling rolls my eyes and starts walking towards the dining room which had better lighting*
I whipped it up very last minute, I think there were some ingredients that weren’t added but I’m not sure..
*clears my throat and looks back at you with a confident grin*
Anyway I hope you do like it and about the dessert— I actually bought it so.
*makes an awkward chuckle as we walk into the dining room, the table set up with two plates and the main entree in the middle; a chicken casserole*
