sweetest.

in  her  other  lectures,  she  would  sit  there  lifeless  at  the  slides  presented  by  the  professor.  it  made  her  appreciate  the  time  they  had  with  each  other.  at  her  suggestion,  she  nods  her  head  without  hesitation.  "sure,  but  you  have  to  promise  me  you'll  pester  me  to  actually  study?"  she  chuckled  leaning  over  to  her  to  bump  her  arm  against  hers.  a  warm  smile  spreads  across  her  lips.  "she  wants  to  make  me  a  damn  whole  sweater?  that's  so  sweet  oh  my  god.  sure  i  mean  i'll  gladly  come  homely  visit."  bomi  was  so  quick  to  agree  without  a  thought.  a  small  laugh  leavs  her  lips,  she  shrugged  her  shoulders  before  turning  to  take  a  sip  of  her  drink  quickly.  she  could  feel  her  cheeks  beginning  to  heat  up.  "ah,  anything  for  the  real  one.  you'll  still  find  me  cute  though,  right?  if  not  then  i'm  afraid  i'll  just  have  to  wear  it  around  your  mom  when  i  visit."  

“no,  no,  i’ll  never  put  you  through  this  again!”  she  chuckled  taking  a  sip  next  to  her.  a  heavy  exhale  escaped  her  lips  after  taking  her  sip  as  if  she  was  in  a  commercial.  “yes,  lets  get  something  filling.  we  really  deserve  it  after  all  the  back  and  forth.  what  are  you  thinking?”  a  bright  smile  appears  on  her  face  at  her  question.  “this  feels  crazy,  i  honestly  didn't  think  i'd  even  get  this  place  but  i  guess  the  universe  knows  best.  how  cheesy,  am  i  right?”  joohyun  chuckled  at  answer  shaking  her  head.  "i  promise  you  -  if  you  need  me  to  move  anything  build  anything  i  got  your  back."  

bomi   looked   over   at   her   and   began   to   smile   wider   as   she   quietly   laughs.   had   she   been   alone   she   would   beat   herself   up   for   being   so   clumsy.   instead,   she   was   able   to   let   it   go   and   just   be   able   to   laugh   about   it.   she   just   felt   a   lot   less   tense   and   critical   on   herself   whenever   she   was   with   her.   it   was   like   she   was   a   missing   puzzle   piece   that   she   needed   in   her   life.   the   many   reasons   why   to   her,   beatrix   was   someone   irreplaceable.   “oh   same   here...   i   always   feel   like   i   have   to   study.”   she   nods   her   head,   leaning   in   closer   since   she   didn’t   want   to   cause   a   distraction   around   them.   a   switch   of   excitement   sparks   within   her   once   she   mentions   shopping,   something   she   enjoys   too   much   for   someone   who   was   notorious   for   giving   up   shifts.   “oh   yeah   lets   go   shopping!   its   been   a   while   since   we've   gone   shopping   too.   i'm   thinking   of   getting   a   sweater   or   something   cozy   because   these   lecture   halls   are   always   so   cold.”   

beatrix   made   the   littlest   things   enjoyable.   had   she   not   meet   the   other   she   could   have   sworn   her   life   would   just   be   a   bore.   there   was   more   to   look   forward   to   when   she   was   there.   “i   think   this   might   be   the   earliest   i’ve   been   in   a   while.”   she   joked,   “but   i’m   glad   i   made   great   timing   then.”   bomi   chuckled   quietly   leaning   closer   to   the   female   for   a   moment.   she   took   her   drink   and   took   a   sip   of   it   not   realizing   she   spilt   a   bit   of   it   on   her   lap.   “oh   my   god,   i’m   a   mess.”   she   quietly   mutters   to   herself   in   embarrassment.   she   scoots   her   chair   closer   to   the   other   and   smiles   at   her.   “what   do   you   want   to   do   later?” 

she   quietly   closed   the   lecture   hall   door   behind   her   in   hopes   to   be   left   unnoticed.   bomi   excelled   in   school   whether   she   tried   or   not   so   attendance   to   her   was   nothing   but   an   excuse   to   see   her   friends.      “hey   cutie,”   she   quietly   greets   beatrix   with   a   soft   smile   before   slipping   into   the   seat   next   to   her.   “i   know   i   said   i’d   be   here   on   time   but   i   hope   this   will   make   up   for   it.”   she   opens   her   laptop   not   bother   to   turn   it   on   to   follow   along   but   as   a   cover.   fingers   carefully   place   her   favourite   drink   by   her   side   and   the   box   of   pastries   between   them.   she   could   resist   the   bakery   on   the   walk   to   campus,   it   always   called   her   name.    @gardensvng​

she   nods   her   head   as   if   she   was   taking   mental   note   of   his   answer.   “i’ll   do   that   before   bed   or   something.”   she   adds   before   allowing   herself   to   laugh.   she   knew   she   going   to   begin   to   blush   but   she   didn’t   bother   to   make   an   effort   to   hide   or   look   away   like   she   normally   would.   seeing   the   expression   on   his   face   drop   amused   her.   aera   knew   how   to   push   his   buttons   in   just   the   right   ways.   she   liked   the   little   game   that   was   happening   between   them.   “fifth,   minjo-.”   she   repeats   before   he   holds   her   close   and   pushes   her   up   against   the   wall.   she   didn’t   imagine   things   unravelling   like   this,   yet   it   felt   so   right.   her   gaze   slowly   meets   his,   hands   by   her   side   slowly   made   its   way   around   and   rest   loosely   behind   the   nape   of   his   neck.   “i   could   save   the   best   for   last,”   she   quietly   teased   him   as   her   heartbeat   begins   to   take   speed.   she   leans   closer   to   him,   lips   set   closer   by   his   ear   to   whisper.   “but   i   suppose   you   can   be   my   first   and   last.”   she   pulls   away   allowing   her   words   to   linger   before   looking   back   at   him.   “don’t   make   me   change   my   mind.”    

she   found   it   fairly   attractive   watching   him   carry   in   boxes   that   she   would’ve   taken   her   triple   the   time   to   bring   in.   her   many   breaks   consisted   of   admiring   him   as   she   would   stand   there   catching   her   breath.   “i’m   glad   you   were   able   to   help   me   because   honestly   i   don’t   know   anyone   as   fit   as   you.”   she   grinned   before   taking   a   second   to   turn   away   to   take   a   sip   of   her   water   bottle.   “yes,   that’s   exactly   what   we   need   after   all   of   this.   i’ll   have   to   treat   you   some   time   for   all   of   this.   maybe   when   i   more   than   just   a   mattress   you   can   come   over.”   joohyun   was   looking   forward   to   the   new   space   and   hopefully   seeing   him   more   often 

when   she   pulls   him   aside   away   from   anyone   that   could   potentially   interrupt   them   she   felt   very   accomplished.   she   nods   as   if   she   didn’t   know   how   to   get   rid   of   the   creaking   noise   when   it   honestly   was   the   only   thing   she   understood   well   enough   and   that   was   all   because   of   him.   “oh   okay.”   she   nods   her   head   with   a   growing   smile   on   her   tinted   lips.   “i   was   just   wonder   because   the   cabinet,   it   creaks   a   little   so   i   forgot   the   name   of   the   thing   -   so   you   just   spray   it   right?”   aera   takes   the   hand   he   had   let   go   of   and   tucked   strand   of   hair   behind   her   ear.   “oh...”   she   chuckled   once   he   calls   her   out   for   her   nonsense.   “i   was   purely   interested   in...   getting   on   the   list   but   i   have   my   own   list   happening   too   and   if   you   were   interest   in   it   you   might   be   fifth.   tough   luck,   sorry.”   she   too   could   play   the   game   just   as   well   as   he   could.   “i   might   be   able   to   bump   you   up   but   we’ll   see.”
