#sauce's little bow at the end is v cute

[kumidark]

more on these ships below the cut:

sorbetcrepe: they met when sorbet shark accidentally destroyed some of strawberry crepe's wafflebots;;; as an apology, they let strawberry crepe run jam/dough tests on them since they were curious how sorbet shark worked (being a cookie/shark and all). the two get up to hijinks together, and sorbet shark brings strawberry crepe little trinkets from the travels across the sea. as a thank you gift, strawberry crepe built a miniature saltwater pond for sorbet shark to stay in/rehydrate in when they visit the vanilla kingdom!!

kumidark: they're traveling together after dark choco left the cookies of darkness. kumiho is super casually affectionate with him, something that throws dark choco off. he only lets her get away with it because sometimes it's nice to feel loved (also he's touch-starved but shhhh he doesn't know that). if you wanna know about how they met n stuff, feel free to read my kumidark fic on ao3 and/or look through my older kumidark posts^^

carapastry: somehow, pastry manages to get away from the st pastry order and caramel arrow and her become friends!! caramel arrow helps her move past her trauma related to the order and pastry helps caramel arrow realize she wants to kiss a woman on the lips 😳;;; also they both wield bows!!!!

figblossom: someone in my server created this ship and i'm in LOVE.....okay so basically they're both super friendly and kind and caring and they both love picnics/storytelling!!! they would have the sweetest on dates in flower fields and cherry blossom would bake delicious treats for fig to try and!!!! basically they're super cute!!!!!

twizzlytiger: okay HEAR ME OUT: twizzly gummy comes across tiger lily at some point and realizes she's s u p e r fun to mess with and now everytime she stops by that area she seeks her out to mess with her. meanwhile tiger lily is completely done with twizzly gummy and exasperated with her shenanigans, but also she has the most fun when she's around her, and twizzly treats her butter tiger nice so....maybe she can stick around.....cue accidental pining and twizzly realizing she doesn't just hang around tiger lily for the laughs, but because she actually Likes Her. twizzly gummy wouldn't know how to deal with it so she'd end up blowing up a castle or something idk.....yeah.......

wereyam: another ship from my server!! i fell in love with it because purple yam would NOT take werewolf's self-deprecating comments. werewolf would say something bad about himself and purple yam would yell WRONG and werewolf wouldnt be able to say anything else. also werewolf's always scared of hurting people because of his big wolf form but purple yam not only wouldn't be scared of it, he'd be able to handle it and fight back if werewolf ever lost control (which he wouldn't)^^

avomala: BUTCH GIRLFRIENDS!!! as stated above, mala's one of the only cookies who'll openly laugh at avocado's jokes and genuinely finds them funny, but also!! avocado is one of the only cookies who can almost handle mala's spice preferences (not completely though; she still has her limits);;; also!! avocado makes weapons for mala sauce sometimes as gifts, which mala l o v e s :3

cacaocaviar: dark cacao is notorious for being stern and refusing help from anybody, but imagine if the republic heard of his troubles (maybe after the whole thing with the soul jam) and sent caviar to help out!! caviar could help keep the licorice sea at bay, and cacao would finally have someone experienced whom he could put his trust in! peepaw x peepaw <3

univamp: yet another ship from my server!! vampire n cream unicorn are both essentially immortal, and they both are very mellow and somft;;;; cream unicorn is one of the only cookies who wouldn't mind vampire's sleepiness/laziness and would sit with him for hours while he nodded off^^ also, most importantly: THEIR HAIR FORMS A HEART!!!!! 💕💕💕💕

hey, i hope you’re doing amazing today ❤️ if it’s alright with you, can i have a scenario of iida meeting the gn! reader’s parents? he’s extremely respectful and all (like the good boy he is), which the reader’s parents really love. but they’re also pretty chill and are kinda amused at seeing him being a little too...stiff? (idk the right word, haha) so they say something like “just relax, kiddo. no need to be too formal!” but overall, the parents approve (they don’t even have to give iida the whole lecture of treating their child right or else he’s dead)? bonus scene that during dinner, one of the reader’s parents pull them aside and is like “ya know, i really like this kid. you should marry him as soon as you graduate high school 😉”

YES YES YES YES I LOVE THIS SM

Hehe I might have gone a bit overboard but it’s v cute so it’s okay

It was a late night in the common room when You mentioned having Iida meet your parents the coming Friday night

Iida was over the moon that your relationship was progressing to the next stage and immediately agreed

However the next day the realization hit Iida- he would have to make a good impression to your parents, meaning best behavior possible

When Friday night comes Iida is stiffer than cardboard

During the ride to your house you’re trying to reassure Iida that your parents are pretty laidback people- he should take a breather!

At least loosen his tie a bit?

When your parent answer the door Iida drops the deepest bow you’ve ever seen

You’re parents are a bit surprised by the action but laugh it off welcoming the two of you inside, iida stopping your dad to give him a handshake

As the four of you walk into the dining table Iida sprints to your mothers chair and takes it out, ready for her to have a seat

Then he runs around the table to grab your chair and does the same

Throughout the dinner his manners are noteworthy

Your dad has never seen someone cut asparagus with such accuracy nor has your mother ever seen someone discuss gardening in such detail

Every conversation to your parent either begins or ends with Sir or Ma’am, Mr or Mrs

But iida can only stay picture perfect for so long

As he’s handing your mother the cranberry sauce she asked for, his hand accidentally knocks over the glass of cran-orange juice your mom served him on the white table cloth

Iida freezes in place..

He is so embarrassed he might cry

Hes repeatedly apologizing, offering to clean the spill, no take it the dry cleaners, better yet he’ll buy your family a whole new tablecloth

That’s when your dad finally snaps

Your dad let’s put the loudest dad laugh ever to be heard

As he collects himself he says to the stunned Iida, “Son, you don’t have to be so formal,”

Those words pass straight through iida’s head as he turns beat red, now apologizing for being too formal

As the dinner continues your dad tries his hardest to loosen iida up and eventually the four of you are laughing together as if iida has been in the family for ages

After the dinner ends iida carries every plate to the kitchen and begins to help with the dishes

When the two of you are heading out your parents stop you at the door

Your dad has a hand on Iida’s proud shoulder when he turns to you and says, “Y’a know, I like this kid, you picked a good one.”

And your mom quietly adds to you “marry him after high school or I might”

Safe to say your parent approve

97. when was the last time a girl made your heart flutter?

98. what is love to you?

Love is complicated.

To me, it’s not about having a partner. Actually, loving someone regardless of romantic feelings is way more important, in my opinion. These things can co-exist, and loving a friend is just as important loving a lover.

The lack of it can hurt, especially being forced out of it. But feeling love? I don’t know. It’s one of the most beautiful feelings ever. I feel so lucky to be surrounded by it.

I really love this article on it! It’s about the 8 types of love the ancient greeks had, and as I greek person myself, I think highly of it. I highly recommend reading it!

99. ask me anything. (bUt since no one specified, I’ll ask myself: Why do this and what did I learn from this?)

I did this because I am stubborn. Also I genuinely liked the questions XD

What I learned from this experience is that I really love answering questions, oops-

If you made it this far, I don’t know what to tell you. You deserve a golden star, my dude.

ANYWAY, NEVER AGAIN.

*Halloween Special 2017

“I’m here, where are you guys?” You spoke into your phone, as you stood in front of a large mansion. People were dancing, singing, drinking, in their elaborate and spooky costumes. There were ghosts, skeletons, werewolves, and even the Hulk was present. Actually scratch that, multiple Hulks, each of a different shade of green. Heavy EDM was blasting from the inside, and it looked like there was a bonfire set up in the backyard. Great, my costume is going to smell like smoke, alcohol, and more smoke. Sigh, why did I even come? You thought to yourself. Despite the immense number of exquisite and detailed costumes, you felt fully confident in your own outfit. You spent two months in advance, acquiring materials, constructing different parts, comparing different versions, as you finally managed to complete your costume. You patted the sides of your pants, your dual pistols hung from a leather belt, and you reached backwards to feel the smooth grip of the wooden crossbow you had made over two weeks. You were dressed in a black trench coat, along with boots, biker gloves, and a black witch hunter hat to top it all off. You were the most badass vampire hunter, well, at least at this party.

“You made it! Yeah, so we decided to kind of split up, you know, try our luck at different places instead of sticking together. We wouldn’t want to drag each other down. Anyways, some of us are upstairs, I’m in the basement, I think the rest are either outside or in the backyard.” Your friend said with a slight slur.

“Isn’t outside and the backyard the same thing?”

“Yeah, yeah, whatever. Anyways, don’t come bothering me, tonight's the night!”

“Ah yes, I almost forgot, all of you guys came to hook up with someone. Jeez, don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere near you. Don’t want people to know we’re associated.” You jokingly attacked.

“Yeah, sure, we’ll see who’s laughing tomorrow morning!”

“Alright, take it easy, bud. I’ll see you in the morning.” You concluded, hanging up, and approached the front porch. A girl dressed as a black cat noticed you approaching and opened the front door for you. She smiled at you, and gave you a little meow. You thanked her and slightly shivered when she meowed at you. Welp, I’m here, might as well try to enjoy this a little bit. Let’s see if they have any food around here, I skipped dinner because my shift ended late today. You bypassed individuals who were already passed out, people who held a stranger’s hand and led them into some corner to make out, and people that were casually drinking water and sat with the other sober people. Finally, you made it into the kitchen, and there they were, stacks of pizza boxes and wings in the corner. Please let there be a few pieces left. Please. You flipped open at least half of the boxes and they were all empty or someone had bitten parts of a pizza off. Are you kidding me? Pleaseee. Upon opening the last box, you found three intact pieces of pizza. You quickly snatched them all up onto your plate and walked away. You grabbed an empty seat away from the drunk people and began to wolf down the pizza. Then you overheard two girls speaking.

“I can’t believe they ran out of food… I should’ve listened to you, I should’ve ate more at home…” One girl spoke.

“Are you really that hungry? We can go grab something quick right now if you want, or we can leave earlier and find something.” The other girl responded.

“No, no, it’s okay, I’ll live. Go have fun, maybe there’s some snacks lying around. Don’t worry about me.” The first girl said and pushed her friend towards another group of girls. The second girl nodded and joined up with her other friends. You stopped eating for a moment and peeked over to the first girl. Your jaw dropped. She’s absolutely stunning. Wow. She wore an elegant crimson dress and her hair was frizzled and let loose around her shoulders. Then she bared her fangs. Vampire huh? Heh, what a coincidence. You watched her for a few more minutes as she practically flipped open each drawer and cabinet twice. You stared down at your plate, where two perfect slices remained. Come on, (Y/N), you’re not that hungry. Surely you can spare a few slices for this poor girl. You finished your first piece, opened your phone’s camera and wiped any tomato sauce or oil off of your mouth and approached the girl. She had finally given up and sat on one of the stools near a counter top.

“Hey? Excuse me, I couldn’t help but notice that you were looking through the kitchen for something. If you don’t mind, I have two slices left here.” You said as you sat on an adjacent stool. The girl looked at you with an awkward expression, smiled quickly and shook her head.

“I didn’t do anything to these pieces, I swear. My name is (Y/N). What’s yours?” You desperately tried to save the conversation. I totally come off as a druggie right now, “Didn’t do anything to these pieces”? Smooth, (Y/N), smooth… The girl gave you a warm but distant look as she still refused to say anything. You could tell that you had failed. Completely and utterly failed. You took your two pieces of sad looking pizza and walked away from her.

“Hey there… hic… I don’t believe we’ve met before…” A drunk man spoke from behind you.

“Where do you think you’re going, little lady? hic... Cute costume, very spooky…” Another joined in.

You turned around to see the same girl being cornered by two drunk dudes who were still carrying their drinks around. She looked worried and extremely uncomfortable. Then all of a sudden, one of the men touched her bare shoulder with his hand, and your body instinctively moved forward to open a gap between the two men and the girl. The girl hid behind you, as you confronted the two.

“Who are you exactlyyy… hic.” The first man spoke.

“What do you think you’re doing?” The second chimed in.

“I could be asking you two the same questions. What do you think you’re doing with… my girlfriend?” You began strongly but began to waver at the end.

“She’s… your… girlfriend?” They both said together. They looked towards each other and laughed out loud in a disgusting manner. Why, I gotta… you thought to yourself, and suddenly a wave of confidence washed over you, as you stood up straighter than normal and projected your voice loudly and clearly for a second time.

“Yeah, she is. So I’m only going to say this once. Piss off.” You spoke coldly. The two men blinked several times as if they didn’t understand English. They looked pissed off now, as they set down their drinks and cracked a few knuckles.

“Who do you think you are?” The second man spoke angrily.

“Who am I? Can’t you tell. I’m Van Fucking Helsing.” You said with even more emotion. The two men didn’t flinch a single bit. Here we go. Again. Wait a second.

“If it’s a fight you want, then you’ll get one. But since there’s two of you, I get an advantage. See this wooden crossbow? I made it myself, quite proud of it to be honest. If I wanted to, this could probably break a few bones before it breaks. But why would I do that, when I can just load it with this metal bolt.” You explained, placing a bolt that was coloured silver onto the crossbow and pulling it back with an audible click at the end.

“So then, who wants to help me try this thing first?” You said with a grin. The two men moved their eyes onto your finely crafted crossbow and then back to you. They slowly backed off, took their drink and went outside.

“Thank- Thank you.” The girl behind you said quietly as she bowed a little. You nodded and smiled at her. You knew that you had made a bad impression before so you were just about to leave the girl alone once again but she spoke again.

“Uhm, I was wondering, if you still had the two pieces of pizza left?” The girl said again.

“Yeah, yeah, of course. Here.” You eagerly responded and handed over your plate once again. The girl thanked you again and literally glowed as she received the pizza.

“Oh hold on, I think there’s a microwave around here somewhere. I just ate it without heating so I can heat it for you if you… want.” You said turning around only for a split second. When you turned back around, the girl had already ate half of the first slice. She paused as you watched her eat.

“I guess not, then.” You said with a chuckle. The girl laughed and choked since she was chewing. You sat back on the stool and hesitated before patting her back. She didn’t reject you.

“Sorry for my attitude from earlier. My friends told me to be careful of strangers. But you seem alright.” The girl apologized after swallowing her bite.

“No, I completely understand. I didn’t exactly make myself appear trustworthy.”

“I don’t know why I came, I’m a party person usually, but I don’t think I like this ‘kind’ of party that much.”

“I ask myself the same question. I came with my friends but they came a bit early and are probably hammered by now. So now here I am, making myself look like an antisocial person/druggie who creeps on sober girls.” You jokingly said. The girl had stopped eating and gave you a wide eyed look.

“It’s a joke… haha. I swear.”

“I know, I’m just messing with you.” The girl dropped her expression and giggled.

“Why are you here then? If you don’t enjoy these types of parties.” You asked.

“Well, I’m here to keep my friends in check. Especially that one. See that girl dressed as a red hot devil? She’s a handful.”

“I wish I could say the same, but my friends all want me as far away as possible.”

“They’re trying to hit on some girls?”

“How did you… yeah, they are. They don’t really have any good luck with girls, so I’m probably here until one of them throws up or gets into a fight.”

“You gonna pull out that crossbow again?” The girl teased.

“I’ll have you know, I really did make this crossbow myself. It took me two whole weeks.”

“Really? Let’s see, give it here.”

You obeyed and gave your crossbow over. The girl pretended to shoot you as she aimed at you with one eye.

“No true vampire hunter gives over their weapon so easily to a vampire.” She commented as she aimed.

“Yeah? Well, I didn’t think vampires were weak enough to get bullied by two drunks.” You reflected back at her.

“Fine, fine, fair enough.” The girl said after licking off the sauce off of her fingers. She returned your crossbow and stretched a little as she put down the empty plate.

“Do you want to move this conversation somewhere else? Things are a bit… chaotic here.” You suggested.

“Sure.” The girl replied warmly. The two of you were going to go downstairs but you heard yelling and the smashing of bottles, then the two of you tried upstairs, but all of the doors were locked and some very inappropriate noises echoed from within the rooms. The backyard and pool were filled with shirtless people. So it was the front porch for the two of you, no one was there, not a single soul. Luckily, you wore multiple layers underneath so you handed your trench coat and scarf to the girl since it was chilly outside.

“Oh!” The girl suddenly exclaimed right after the two of you sat on the steps.

“What is it?”

“I forgot to introduce myself… ahem. My name is Momo. Nice to meet you, (Y/N).” She announced and extended her hand.

“You remember my name?” You asked, astonished, and shook her hand.

“Of course I did. You weren’t that creepy. Good try.”

“Well, sorry, next time I’ll try harder. I’ll put an excessive amount of sugar onto the pizza.”

Momo giggled at your sense of humor. Even her laugh is beautiful. Who is this girl. The two of you ended up sitting out there for the entire night. No one came to bother the two of you, no one saw the two of you. It was like you two were in your own little world together. Even when everyone began to sleep, or were too drunk and passed out. Finally, the sky began to light up with hues of orange, red, and yellow streaks that peeked through the horizon.

“Is it really morning already?” You asked, still feeling as awake as when you showed up at the party.

“We talked for a long time huh? Funny how I don’t feel tired at all. Hm, I wonder if Sana is feeling any better.”

“Who’s Sana?”

“Oh, one of my dearest friends, she got sick right before this party so she opted to stay home by herself. I’ll see her soon, I’m sure she’s fine now.”

“Okay, I’m sure she’s feeling better by now. So did you enjoy 2017’s Halloween? It’s officially over now.” You said, standing up and stretching a little.

“It’s not over yet. The Sun’s not completely up. I’m a vampire remember? I’ll burn up in sunlight. Completely combust. Then it’s over.” Momo joked, pointing at the Sun that slowly creeped up from behind the hills. You smiled, and took your long trench coat off of Momo then you held it up high with your hands, creating a cover between the sunlight and Momo.

“If that was the case, I think I’d be the only vampire hunter to protect you. I’d hold up my coat like this, and create a shield for you. Because I don’t want you to disappear.” You said as you stared straight into Momo’s eyes. She stood up, and kissed you gently on your cheek.

“Thank you, (Y/N). You’re very sweet. Thank you for making my 2017 Halloween enjoyable.”

“You’re welcome.”

“I should go now, my friends are probably waiting for me at home. They left already and I had told them that I was in good hands. They’re probably getting worried by now.”

“Ahem, uh, yes, yes you should.”

Momo proceeded to walk away from you, but before you could fully let her just go, you spoke up again.

“Hey! Will I… see you again?” You asked, feeling extremely shy all of a sudden.

“Maybe you will, maybe you won’t.” Momo replied without turning her head, she waved to you and continued to walk away. I can’t believe I just let her go.

Brrt!

Your phone vibrated against you, you had forgotten that you had placed your phone in the inside pocket of your trenchcoat. You took it out and scrolled through the notifications.

“Where are you?!?”

“I need my wingman ASAP. Please.”

“I’ll buy you twenty hot wings next time we go out.”

“Fourty.”

“We’re all heading home now… no one got lucky. For the fourth year in a row. Sigh.”

“You coming with us or what?”

“Hello? (Y/N)?”

“Alright well we’re leaving so have fun with whatever you’re doing.”

You carefully read through your friends texts and laughed to yourself. You swiped all of the texts away. You suddenly paused when you came upon a text that was hidden among the rest from an unknown number. It read…

“Your favourite vampire.”

I know, I know, it’s been like two weeks since Halloween, are you serious right now? Well I am completely serious. Hahaha, I couldn’t help but write something for Halloween so please enjoy this scenario! If you’re interested in another Halloween themed scenario, I have one on my sideblog (Hamzzisana) and see if you can find some similarities between the two...

Trust Me, Try It: This Dansk Butter Pot Is Like A Swiss Army Knife for Small Kitchens

The product: Dansk Kobenstyle Butter Warmer

The price: $55 (on Dansk site, price varies at other retailers)

The reason: On my 21st birthday, I unwrapped this squat little butter pot from a box with a big bow on top, and I was perplexed. Just hours before, my sister and I had sat in our room, recounting the events of my karaoke party the night before, only to discover that she had somehow crammed a slice of pizza into her purse during her night on the town with me—which is just to say, irrespective of several massive pitchers of Tequila Sunrise, my culinary predilections at the time were far from refined. My college roommate and closest companion Julia had taught me some of the basics of cooking and, more impressively, how to bake bread, but the two of us also wrote an emotional thank-you letter to a roasted peanut company we believed had single-handedly kept us alive during our first season of exams. Again, I’m just trying to illustrate the fact that I was not exactly the type who needed a separate pot just for melting butter in her kitchen. 

My aunt, giver of the gift in question and a famously good finder of pretty-yet-useful objects, registered my skepticism and said, “Trust me, you’re going to use this all the time.” And now it’s my turn to do the very same and say to you, who probably feel that you do not need a tiny container for heating up dairy: Trust me, you have got to try this butter warmer.

The first (and best) thing you should know about the butter warmer is that it’s good for much more than its name would suggest. Its official capacity is listed as a quart, but I’m more of an “eyeball it” cook, and I’ve discovered that this is reliably just the right size for sauce or salad dressing to feed two. I use it often to gently warm tahini and peanut butter for sesame noodles or to whisk together miso and lemon to drizzle over vegetables. Even sauces or dressings that don’t need to go over a burner do well in the butter warmer because its lip makes for easy pouring. 

This little pot is also the perfect size for boiling a cup of water. When I work from home, I use it constantly to make mugs of tea. It also fits an egg or two, which is great if you’re feeling peckish and don’t want to bring an entire vat of water to a simmer. (My preferred egg method, you ask? Bring the water to a boil, then add the eggs, keep at rolling boil for seven minutes, rinse with ice-cold water and peel). If you’re lacking a similarly specific kitchen implement known as the milk frother, the butter warmer also works well to steam milk for a matcha latte. Once again, the humble butter pot proves that it’s more than just its name一never judge a book by its cover or an appliance by its title, I suppose.

However, using the butter warmer for its intended purpose makes me feel infallibly classy, like my house is a lobster restaurant. Imagine seating your friends for dinner and giving each of them a little dish of piping hot, foamy butter in which to dip their protein of choice—is there anything better? Maybe there’s also some browned garlic in there too! Maybe you’re also dressed like a stick of butter; I don’t know your life or your lactose tolerance. 

Finally, it must be acknowledged that the butter warmer is just plain pretty. It provides a dash of color in the kitchen, and it looks good on many permutations of a tablescape. The first one I received was in a striking, now-discontinued Kelly green and my current is in a lovely, moody shade of lavender. It’s so cute I almost want to wink at it every time I catch it sitting innocently on my stove. 

Edith referred to the butter warmer as “Cottagecore,” an aesthetic movement I now understand that I have belonged to my entire life but for which I only just found a name. Anyway, this whole story began with me receiving a weird birthday gift and has ended in me finding my people, which is really the most resounding endorsement I could imagine for a kitchen implement. Go forth and melt butter!

Mid-February [Hyunsik]

“So, babe, what do you think about...February?”

Hyunsik looked up from his laptop and tilted his head, confused, his floppy hair falling to the side. “It’s a short month? Uhhh...why do you want to know?”

You waved your hands in front of your face. “No reason, no reason…” you mumbled, biting your lip in thought. February, huh? Hyunsik had already returned to his work, typing quickly away, seemingly innocent of all the thoughts racing through your mind. You and Hyunsik had been dating for less than a year now, and this would be your first Valentine’s Day together. You’d hoped to do something special together, but...that was if Hyunsik cared about Valentine’s. You slid off of the chair as you walked back to the living room to think, mumbling to yourself as your mind ran through potential plans of action, not noticing Hyunsik watching you leave.

-----

A week had ticked by and you were getting increasingly worried. You’d left Hyunsik several hints (some incredibly not subtle) by wearing pink three days in a row, slowly increasing the amount of flowers around the apartment, and leaving heart-shaped chocolate laying on the table. Hyunsik had simply raised his eyebrows and noted that you were very ready for spring before grabbing the chocolate off of the counter and scarfing it all down. You swore you were ready to pull your hair out in frustration. How could one person be that dense?!

It was time for Plan D. If this didn’t work, you were going to give up and just resign yourself to the fact that your boyfriend just wasn’t interested in Valentine’s Day. After all, there were only three days left before the holiday itself.

The next day, you bought a cute little teddy bear and brought it back to the apartment, setting it very obviously on the middle of the dining room table. It was holding a red heart and would say “I love you” if you pressed its tummy. It was freaking adorable, and most importantly, was obviously a Valentine’s Day gift. Even Hyunsik couldn’t mistake it for anything else, right?

By the time Hyunsik got home you had made him a nice, warm meal of spaghetti in meat sauce. You could tell that he’d had a frustrating day as he rubbed his eyes and kicked off his shoes, but as soon as he saw you and the dinner you’d prepared, his face broke into his signature grin. Hyunsik walked over and wrapped you in a hug, kissing you gently on the top of your head. “Thanks for cooking tonight, love. It’s been a stressful day.”

You nodded and pushed him away gently. “Eat now before it gets cold! We can hug later!” Hyunsik laughed and sat down, and as you ate, he surveyed the bear sitting in the middle of the table.

“Is that for me?”

You nodded and pushed it towards him. “A present for you!”

Hyunsik picked the bear up and patted its head. “Aww, what’s the occasion? I know…”

You held your breath in anticipation, waiting to hear the V-D words coming out of his own mouth.

“...it’s an early birthday present! Aww, babe, you didn’t have to. There’s still less than a month to go!”

You couldn’t help but let out a sigh of defeat, mentally throwing your hands in the air. “Do you like it?”

Hyunsik grinned and nodded, placing it on his lap for the rest of the meal as he practically slurped up the spaghetti. You ate slowly, feeling your excitement dwindle away. You were lucky enough to have the day off on Valentine’s Day, which meant you could sleep in, eat chocolate, do a face mask, and watch a romantic movie by yourself. Hyunsik apparently had no interest, but that wouldn’t stop you from enjoying the day yourself.

-----

You awoke groggily on the morning of the 14th, feeling Hyunsik sit up besides you. Grumbling to yourself, you pulled the blankets back around your body as he got out of the bed.

“I’m heading to work, honey. Don’t you want to kiss me goodbye?” Hyunsik leaned over and put his body weight on you. You groaned in response.

“Let me sleep! I barely ever get a day off...I’m spending this one relaxing.”

Hyunsik chuckled and pressed a gentle kiss to your forehead. “Have a good day off!”

After Hyunsik left, you slept in for another hour and a half and slowly got out of bed, tossing on your most comfortable day-off clothes. You grabbed the box of chocolate you’d hidden on top of the refrigerator (away from Hyunsik’s grabby hands) and plopped down on the couch, choosing one of the cheesiest romantic comedies you owned.

After finishing that movie, you stretched and stood up, looking for some ramyun to make for lunch. After opening all of the cabinets in the kitchen, you groaned as you realized that Hyunsik had eaten the last pack yesterday. Sliding on your shoes, you grabbed your wallet and headed to the nearest convenience store.

You mumbled a greeting to the clerk at the checkout desk as you shuffled into the aisle with the ramyun, seeing your favorite brand right at the end. Squatting down, you reached out to grab the nearest pack, something small fluttering off of the top as you did so. Raising your eyebrows, you grabbed the small slip of folded-over paper that had your name on it.

Look at the back of the store for the roses <3

You narrowed your eyes suspiciously and flipped the paper over, but there was no indication of who had left it. Standing back up, you headed to the back of the store and immediately spotted a red rose with a ribbon and a piece of paper tied to its stem.

Go two blocks down the street to the little cafe, and show them this rose. Don’t worry, I already paid for the rose ;)

You snorted, shaking your head. Half of you was definitely suspicious of whomever was leaving you messages, but the other half of you was curious enough to go with it. Paying for the ramen and heading out the door with the rose, you found a small cafe about where the note had said it would be. Entering, the worker at the counter bowed and pulled a box out from behind the counter, handing it to you

“This is for you, I believe.”

You thanked them slowly, staring at the box in curiosity before sitting down at a nearby table. Pulling the note off of the top, you read it as you opened the box.

A sweet treat for a sweet person :P

You giggled to yourself as a beautiful slice of cake was revealed, immediately grabbing the plastic fork inside the box and digging in. Even if this “mysterious” person wasn’t who you thought it was, there wasn’t a high chance that they’d poison you, right?

You took the first bite of cake and closed your eyes in happiness, savoring the sweetness against your tongue. Suddenly, hands slid over your eyes. You barely managed to stifle a squeak of surprise, and panic quickly ran through you as you thought about how to get out of the situation. However, the hands felt warm and familiar, and you relaxed slowly.

“Hyunsik?”

The hands dropped from around your eyes and you tilted your head back to meet his eyes. He smiled a wide, gummy smile and pressed a kiss to your forehead.

“Surprise?”

You shook your head in mock disappointment. “You’re not supposed to scare your girlfriend half to death, dummy.”

Hyunsik scratched the back of his head awkwardly and took a seat across from you. “Err...sorry? You knew it was me, though!”

You aimed a gentle kick at him under the table and took another bite of cake. “Not at first, though! You could’ve been anyone! Also, I thought you had a photoshoot today?”

Hyunsik shook his head. “I have the day off, actually, so I thought I’d spend my Valentine’s Day with you.”

You narrowed your eyes at him. “You knew.”

Hyunsik laughed into his hand, his eyes curving upwards. “It was pretty hard to forget, with you reminding me every second and all…”

A flush ran over your cheeks as you stuffed another bite of cake into your mouth. “I thought you were just exceedingly dense!”

The next few seconds passed in a peaceful silence, you eating cake and Hyunsik watching you, chin resting on his linked hands. Once the slice was finished, Hyunsik stood and held a hand out to you, pulling you up to him.

“Are you ready to see the rest of your presents?”

As you slid your fingers between his and headed out the door, you smiled to yourself and decided that he wasn’t half bad, after all.
