@Hyunbin H *accepts the smoothie, taking a small sip then hand it back to you, taking his in return. he nods in approval then continued to sip his*
It's really good, Hyunbin.
*reaches to hold onto your wrist lightly, he escorts them to a sit, now sitting down so they weren't in the way of people. notices how shy you got. he got shy himself but your shyness was really cute. fingers played with the plastic cup the held his smoothie*
I'm special?
@Yeosang `he nodded before offering his smoothie as well for you to sip. He took a sip of yours and hummed in delight.
That's very good!
`he said happily before continuing to answer your questions.
Of course... it's not every day you cross with your childhood friend. Besides, I enjoy talking to you before I knew we were childhood friends. You're very interesting to talk to. Even if I was paired with someone else I would make sure to establish some sort of connection with you. When someone or something interests me I feel the need to establish a connection whether it be as friends or more. Normally friendships, but you're special...
`he spoke softly before clearing his throat and looking away feeling a bit shy.
@Hyunbin H *takes his when it was done and takes a sip from it, smiling at the taste. it tasted fresh and just how he pictured it*
It's really good. Do you want to try mi-mine, Hyunbin?
*offers the smoothie to you*
I'm happy to hear you're happy with me too. Would you have? Even if you were paired with som-someone else?
@Yeosang I know you would have, you can get our next treat to call it even.
`his other hand reached out to gently pat your head playfully while they wait a bit more.
I'm also really happy. I'm very much enjoying every moment with you. Although, even if we weren't paired im sure I would make it a mission to be around you as much as possible..
`their smoothies were done, so he grabbed his and took a sip happily.
@Hyunbin H Thank you for the smoothie by the way.. I would've pa-paid my own or got yours too
*keeps that soft smile and stands next to you as they wait*
Yeah, I'm really happy actually. I couldn't ask for a better person to spend the weak with other than you. Are you ha-happy we are paired, Hyunbin?
@Yeosang Good. That makes me feel better.
`he chuckled and glanced at the other for a bit.
You can have some of mine? I don't mind sharing with you.
`he then began to order his smoothie while also ordering yours for you. He grabbed his wallet and grabbed his card to pay for the smoothies. After saying his thanks he gently pulled you over to wait for their smoothies.
Are you still happy that we are paired?
@Hyunbin H *nods at your words, arms kept around hugging yours to him*
I'm.. I'm comfortable with you. I don't think I'm scared of you. You haven't g-gave me a reason to be scared of you.
*smiles genuniely this time as they entered the cafe*
Peach with whip cream sounds just as good as my strawberries and whip cream.
@Yeosang `he smiled a bit before pinching your cheek and pulling it lightly.
Don't fake your smile... I'm not sad about it, I'm just concerned and a bit worried about scaring you away. I'm still very happy and surprised by the excitement. I just want you to be comfortable, you sweet strawberry.
`he cooed softly, his arm pulling you close to his body and pulled you along with him to the Cafe.
Let's get you that strawberry smoothie with whipped cream... I'm going to get peach, because whipped cream goes better with it.
@Hyunbin H *feels a bit sad that he took that happiness or surprise from you so he inhales and puts on a happy smile*
N- No um. I I was just taken back i- is all
*lets go of your hand just for his arms to circle around yours own closest to him*
`he noticed you shrinking back the excitement and stopped walking to turn you towards him.
I'm sorry, I hope that didn't make you uncomfortable? I just... was surprised and also felt a but special to see that side pop out so soon. A classic I need to think before I speak kind of thing.
`he says with a slight smile.
@Hyunbin H []thought it would be okay to rp here))

@Yeosang Ah, you perked up just from smoothies now that's ing adorable...
`he mumbled before nodding his head and making sure their fingers were interlocked as he began to walk towards the exit.
Hell yes... let's get you all your favorite flavors so I can see more of this excitement.
-
*suddenly becomes a little shy when you mentioned it so he shrinks into himself a little as they walk out from the place to go to the cafe*
I- I'm thinking.. I'm.. I'm feeling like getting a strawberry one with whip cream.
@Choi Beomgyu you will them up? /laughs softly/ not gonna lie, I'd kinda love to see that
/takes your hand and gives you a thankful smile as I stand up with you/
no, it wasn't your fault, really...it's just really that I let myself get reminded too easily from basically anything and lately I have been quite a mess because of it, I'm surprised I was able to hold it off in front of you until now...!
/nods and chuckles softly/
yup~ but I'd also would have kicked your in high school and made you stay until you graduated but well, enough parents-talk!
@Choi Yeonjun Ditto, Yeonnie. Whoever is with you better treat you right or I will them up for you!
/chuckles a bit then it ceases when you ask to come over. Without hestation, I give a nod as I stood up, extending my hand to you/
Yeah, You're welcome to come over. If I made you feel vulnerable in any way, I do apologize. Sometimes my curiousity just leads to other being hurt and I don't realize it. But I'm happy to know you like being with me and you feel comfortable around me.
/rubs at my nape with my free hand/
Yeeeah.. Parents huh?
@Choi Beomgyu I'm sorry about that...but I'm glad you are trying it again even if it's just one more time, the guy you will be dating, will be so lucky I swear. Well, cuteless romantics are cute, I can't blame you. Besides, those thoughts are really nice, I totally understand you in that regard
/coos softly at your embarrassed chuckle and nods once again at your words/
Mhm, I guess it will be... /sighs softly and looks down/
would it be okay to maybe go to your place...? I really don't feel like being in public right now but I also don't wanna be alone either and I enjoy your company and ugh I hate being so emotional at the moment
/smiles softly again at you and claps a bit/
That would be so harsh but I did get that threat a lot, too...! And you did if after all, that's good!! Now you can completely focus on what makes you happy
@Choi Yeonjun Well after a few failed relationships, I quit dating. But I found myself recently lonely so I decided to give it a shot just one more time. Obviously, I'm still young but it would be nice come home to someone, sleep and wake up with that person. Call me a hopeless romantic, if you will.
/chuckles slightly embarassed then I noticed your expression shift again/
It'll be okay Yeonnie, whatever you're going through. I'm sorry it's such a rough patch for you but I do have hope that you'll be okay.
/gives you a victory smile to try and brighten you up/
I did graduate but the skin of my teeth. Mother threatened to kick me out if I didn't. Hahaha- ha.
@Choi Beomgyu Yeah that's true although I feel like...you also can't take too long when you like someone or they're gonns leave you
/scoffs and chews on my bottom lip/ even if they promise to wait and be patient
/tries not to let the hurt in my eyes show and smiles at you instead as I tilt my head in question/
So you're not in a rush but applied for a dating show? Although I'd get it, I applied only because my dad wanted me to finally not randomly around anymore and find someone serious to settle down with
/nods in understanding/
That's true! You don't need an education for your career but still good you followed through since it's nice to at least have graduated...mhm but now I wish I could have helped you in high school, I guess the people pleaser in me comes out again
@Choi Yeonjun There is no timeline when it comes to dating. It's more of, go at your own pace kind of deal. I'm sure you'd fine someone interested in you as much as you're interested in them. Me? I'm in no rush. It just nice to know what works out and what doesn't.
/watches the discarding of the cup/
Nah, It's cool. I got a good career of following my passion so I'm not dwelling on my education.
@Choi Beomgyu yup~ I will tease you of course but I would never judge you for being enthusiastic about something, that's not cool. besides, nerds are cute
/hums and finally throw away my cup as well/
I'm sorry about that...but yeah, I'm glad you were able to push through it anyways!
/nods and chuckles softly/
I bet they'd want that but I sure don't want to have my siblings witnessing me with a partner in my own apartment aside from sleepovers! but until I get a partner, it will take years anyways I bet
@Choi Yeonjun So you're saying I don't need to hide my two hundred anime figures, manga series and games and hours and hours of anime?
/chuckles, I'm joking of course, just thought I'd play along/
Yeah... I didn't like school so much. I got to many fights and I was having such a rough time at home. So, I didn't care about school at all.
/nods a few times/
That's a good goal to have but I'm sure your siblings would want to move with you. Or beg to stay over huh?
@Choi Beomgyu no, don't worry, I will only tease you a little bit for it when I see it~
/laughs softly as I still have that teasing grin on me/
mhm, you skipped school a lot, huh? it's really good we didn't go to the same high school then
I know but they soon have to learn to live without me, I mean I can't live forever at my parents' house, I'm 24!! and especially if I have a partner one day that I can trust....I'd really love to have an apartment with them
@Choi Yeonjun I should hide my manga and anime collection when you come in.
/laughs and laughs a bit more seeing you sulk/
Oh I see. My highschool didn't do anything like that. Or if they did, I wasn't playing attention or maybe I skipped. Oh no, your siblings would miss you so dearly if you did so. At least you're spending time with them while studying.
@Choi Beomgyu I don't hate on your nerdy self, it's cute how nerdy you are
/laughs softly but gasps dramatically at the pretend-kick and sulks in pretend/
that was during high school, university doesn't do things like that anymore. if I went on an exchange, it would have had to be for a semester and I couldn't do that to my siblings!
@Choi Yeonjun Hey hey hey don't hate on my nerdy self and Shibuya
/gently and very lightly tap at your leg pretending to kick/
But that's pretty cool that they did that. Was that during your college or was it during highschool?
@Choi Beomgyu thank you for understanding, Beomie...
/smiles slightly back as I play more with the cup/
Yeah usually but it was part of a school project? it was to diversify and get to know other cultures and that went on for two months in total. Oh those are nice places but of course the nerd goes to Shibuya~~~
/grins teasingly at you/
@Choi Yeonjun I understand that. Don't worry about it, kay?
/offers you a warm smile as I sit back into the chair/
That's pretty interesting. Usually exchange programs are like a semster or so.. right? Oh- I stayed around Shibuya and Akihabara. Hokkaido was really fun too. Oh there was one week was I was in Kyoto. Oh it's so beautiful there...
@Choi Beomgyu I mean maybe one day but especially in public it feels inappropriate and I don't wanna burden you with me...crying all over you in the worst case
/sighs softly but begins to smile at your question, nodding at it/
it was like...a weird exchange thing? it was for one and a half month so not really long but it was really fun~ I tried so much delicious food!! oh? where were you in Japan for vacation?
@Choi Yeonjun /nods understanding/
Well we don't have to think about it and we can change topics..
/eyes brighting
You were an exchange student in Japan? What was that like? I've only been there for vacation a couple times with a couple friends.
