❈ riize

with a raised brow he studies sungchan's attempt in taking the chip, taking note to eventually stop the other from drinking another shot.
mmhm, and who's the one that's on the verge of melting?
he sighs helplessly at the comment before dipping his head to plant a kiss on his giant cat's temple
you know, i love you
he murmurs onto the skin as he studies sungchan's fluttering long lashes, then the slope of his slightly curved nose.
my handsome boyfriend.

the hand in his hair was not unwelcome. sungchan very much keens at his lover's touch, leaning into it like a lazy cat on a cold sunday afternoon. he then shakes his head, half of his face still planted on eunseok's chest
i'm not. you're just drinking too slow
he opens his mouth, narrowly missing the chip and almost biting into eunseok's palm before he readjusts a little to take it into his mouth properly
this is nice

hmm, i wonder who as well.
a hand immediately buries into sungchan's soft locks, brushing the strands with affection as the ends slip from between his fingers
arent you drinking too fast? we still have beer to finish you know
he reaches for a chip and nudges against his lover's lips
and eat some chips too

he shifted in his seat under eunseok's gaze, eyes flitting away as heat spread throughout his body. whether it was the alcohol kicking in or just him short circuiting from the wink (or both), sungchan doesn't know
and whose fault is that?
he begrudgingly mumbles, but there's no bite in his words. he then downs a shot again and buries his face into eunseok's chest with a sigh.

he takes a sip from his glass, starting to feel slightly lightheaded from the previous shot. the alcohol stung his buds but the tingling on his hand lingered longer.
you're just a romantic
meeting eyes with snugchan, he gives a quick wink

laughs at the statement and relaxes onto eunseok, fingers toying with the shot glass filled with soju
i dont even know why i get like this around you
his free hand reaches eunseok's, dragging it up to his face to press a gentle kiss there to quietly say he loves him too before letting it rest at his own waist.
he then clinks his glass to the other's, peeking up at eunseok through his lashes as he downs yet another shot

that's pretty cheesy
/he presses a kiss on top of sungchan's head, letting his lips linger for a bit longer/
mmm love you
/mumbles before burying his face into dark locks and takes the time to feel the other's presence next to him/

places a hand on eunseok's leg, rubbing his palms against his skin before raising the bottle and tipping it towards the other's glass to fill it up
and it'll be fine as long as we have our team, and i have you by my side
sits closer, leaning his head against eunseok's shoulder. his smile doesn't leave his face until he was done talking

/blinks with a blank face at the knocks/
aaah, that's what you meant. i guess i was thinking a bit too simply.
/lifts and stretches a leg to prop on sungchan's lap as he taps on his empty glass with a finger/
well, we made it but there's still so much more to do

cringes, setting the glass down as he reaches to gently knock on eunseok's skull
i thought i would've been used to your rock head, but i guess i overestimated myself
pours another shot, reaching for more chips as he relaxes into his seat with a sated smile
it's an excuse to drink more. but... i guess it's a retrospective thing? since we're celebrating the new year, might as well celebrate the long and hard years it took to get us to where we are today; debuting in the same team, winning daesangs, by each other's side

because?
/with a clink, he straights the shot with eyes not leaving sungchan but his face scrunches at the clean bitterness and he stuffs his mouth with the chip in his hand/
celebrating us?
/computer error noises, clicking random files, searching trashbin/
it still hasnt been a month since we started dating
/reaches for his phone to tap it awake, the date stamped on his lockscreen/
what are we celebrating

pretends to try to bite off the piece eunseok held, laughing quietly before he reaches for his own shot glass
one bottle's fair. but we're adding a can of beer because...
clinks their glasses together and smirks, downing the drink in one go before displaying a pleasant simper
... we're celebrating us too

so, half a bottle for our comeback and the other half for new years. the whole bottle it is.
/he picks at the chips to find the biggest piece, holding it up to show with a grin/
look, it's a whole potato right here
/while he takes a bite out of the chip, he picks up the shot glass and waits for sungchan/

you bet i will
sets the glasses down and leans down to peck eunseok's cheek, picking a few chips from the bags and chucking them into his mouth. he then grabs the soju bottle, giving it a quick swirl before he uncaps it and fills the shot glasses
well, we don't have to finish everything. we're just celebrating our comeback? and the new years? heh

just make sure to kiss my tongue better later
/opens the bags from the middle and sets them on the center of the table before turning to watch sungchan bring the glasses/
/he cant help but relate to the other once his eyes set on the shot glasses/
do you think we'll get yelled at by the managers if we drank too much?

returns from the door with a bag in his hands, biting his lips sheepishly as he looked at the other walking out from the kitchen with some chips.
i'm sorry about... that
he lays the bag down and unloads its contents onto the table, contemplating for a while before waltzing into the kitchen to come back with two shot glasses and a beaming look on his face, eager to get the drinks in his system

/hastily waves a hand to say he's okay, more worried about the delivery man waiting outside than his stinging tongue/
/wiping the corner of his eye from pain-filled tears, he cant help but laugh to himself at the series of events that had unfolded/
'what stupid luck'
/he saunters over to the kitchen with his tongue sticking out to relieve the burn and hands in his pockets, only to pull one out to yank the handle of the pantry/
/quickly, he grabs two bags of potato chips by the edges before traveling back to the living room/

a shiver runs down the back of his neck as his tongue slips in to glide against the other's, swirling the muscle around almost as if he was a starved man served with a platter
wha— ack!
his eyes widen at the scene before him, hands scrambling to help eunseok but ended up just flailing. he quickly stands up, helping the other up apologetically
are you okay? let me go get that

/with parted lips he grants access to his cavern and whimpers at sungchan's cold hands meeting his skin/
/just when he was about to push the taller down, the doorbell has him jolting and he bites his tongue/
guawk!
/he falls back while clutching his mouth in pain, foot kicking the air/

grunts at the contact, pulling off the other's lips with a smacking sound as he closes in again, parting his lips and swiping his tongue along eunseok's upper lip. his hands slide under the hem of his shirt to grip at his waist

/almost rolls his eyes at the stupid grin on his face but his lips quivering to a smile says otherwise/
i love you too
/the last thing he sees is sungchan's eyes before his own flutters to a close/
/tilts his head to mend their lips together as his hand buries itself into tufts of hair/

grins proudly at that, tilting his head as if to tease the other before putting his palms on either side of his thighs
you're so pretty— i love you so much
pulls eunseok closer by his knees and leans upwards to close the gap between their lips

/lifts himself up to sit himself on sungchan's lap, snaking his arms around the other's neck/

/theres another clench in his stomach/ you- ugh

heh okay sit up and sit properly
pats his lap, gesturing for the other to sit on it

yeah

i-

/feels a sudden clench in his stomach at the proposal/

:D

while we wait for the drinks to arrive we should make out
