@⋮ wang yiren '...just a little bit nervous that's all...' she stuttered and it took every fiber of his being for eunseok to pretend, for her sake, that he didn't hear anything, averting his eyes to pretend he was looking elsewhere when in reality she was all he could see. it didn't take long for his gaze to return to her with a warm smile on his lips. eunseok nodded his head to her addition of guava juice, his face lighting up as he absorbed the sound of her voice. he couldn't help but squeeze her closer to him as he shook his head and relayed to the cashier before paying, "one special, a guava juice and that'll be all."
"this way," eunseok whispered as he tugged her toward a table that had just been cleared by staff, pulling out a chair for her to sit before sitting across from her, and as he sat, he couldn't help but steal loving little glances at the way the sun kissed her fair skin through the window, the way her colored hair seemed to glow in the bask of light. eunseok reached his hand out to touch hers, their fingertips brushing against each other before sliding his fingers between hers. "what are you thinking about?" he asked gently as his eyes pierced through hers with affection.
@song eunseok a small giggle escapes her lips, using this as a chance to cover as an attempt to hide her burning face. his hand on her cheek, albeit cold being exposed to the chilly winter weather, was hot against her cheek. words barely stumble out as her brain tries to wrap around the current situation she was in. "oh- n-no i'm okay! i'm just a little bit nervous that's all..." as soon as those words left , she mentally cursed herself for telling the truth of the current situation.
her head immediately turns to the cashier upon noticing that they reached the top of the line. her eyes scanned the menu with her lips pressed together as if she was making a life or death decision, not noticing that eunseok took hold of her hand until he calls her out. "oh and a guava juice! is there anything you want to add eunseok?" she tries to keep her composure as his hand snakes around her waist, she subtly takes a step closer to him, inhaling his cologne and snakes her arm behind him, her hand resting on his hip.
@⋮ wang yiren "i guess lines move just for noona, then," he teased with a cheeky grin, his gaze lingering on her nervous expression - her cheeks looked warm as they burned red. eunseok reached to brush her hair away from her face, pressing the back of his palm against her cheek as he asked with a tinge of concern in his voice, "is it hot in here? i'll hold your stuff if you want to take your jacket off." but as the two got lost in their little world, it was finally their turn in this long, busy line to make their order.
eunseok wouldn't have noticed if the cashier didn't call for his attention. "ah, sorry-" he apologized to the busy cashier with an apologetic smile and reached down to hold yiren's hand as they stood at the counter. "can we get a special, and..." he looked over at yiren, grabbing her attention with his arm snaking around her waist, "noona, did you want to order anything else?"
@song eunseok the smile upon his face instantly melted her heart as she smiles brightly in return. the sudden arm around her shoulders made her heart start to pound against her rib cage, aside from the security she felt, whilst a bright scarlet runs across her face inhaling a faint smell of citrus. "i- it doesn't seem too long of a wait from where we're at." the whisper sent goose bumps up her neck, it was a good thing her hair was down so that he couldn't see how she was reacting to his voice. "oh really? yes! let's share it!"
@⋮ wang yiren the cold expression that had been on his face melted into a warm smile upon her arrival, he shook his head to her apology as he looked down at her with an adoring gaze. "its alright," he reassured as he slipped his arm around her shoulder to shield her from the other patrons of the cafe, "i wouldn't want you to stand in line for too long anyway." he leaned over with his minty fresh breath close to her as he pointed at the cafe menu, whispering, "i heard their special is really good today, wanna try it?"
@song eunseok yiren tapped her foot anxiously as her car had not yet reached the cafe that she had promised to meet eunseok at. a small grin forms on her lips from the small albeit short messages on the queue update. as soon as the car pulls up to an empty space, she grips her phone tightly as she exits the car fixing her hair as she looked around for her date. she saw a tall figure waving his hand over, her smile instantly brightened. she quickened her pace to stand next to his side heaving a relieved sigh, "finally, i made it! i hope that i didn't make you wait long."
@⋮ wang yiren the line at the cafe was longer than eunseok had expected. he'd been standing in line for about ten minutes now and still wasn't anywhere near the front. luckily for him though his date had yet to arrive. he kept checking his phone for updates on her commute as he gave her updates on the line. eunseok looked down at her phone as he felt it vibrate with a new message - she'd arrived. he turned around to look for her within the crowd, waving at her as he beckoned her over, "noona, come here!"
