dk + dancing in the kitchen
'the option of just ordering something is still on the table, by the way.'
you glare at your boyfriend, who only smiles sheepishly back. 'seokmin, tiramisu is one of the easiest desserts, i'm sure we can handle making one by ourselves. besides, it needs to rest for the whole night in the fridge, so it's perfect for tomorrow's party.'
'why the recipe is so long if it's easy to make?' he asks, making a very valid point, but you don't say that out loud. 'and that's a whole lot of mascarpone, if you ask me.'
with a huff, you turn around, crossing your hands over your chest. 'are we making a dessert for our friends or are we not, lee seokmin?'
he immediately straightens up, saluting you with a serious face, but his eyes are twinkling with mischief. 'we are, m'lady.'
you shake your head at his antics, smiling. cooking is not your forte and not seokmin's as well, but making something together counts for a good quality time spent and you both enjoy it. seokmin always manages to make atmosphere lighter and right now he fiddles with his phone, picking a right song to fit the mood, humming to himself. 'i'm about to whip the egg whites, nothing will be heard anyway.' you warn him and he pouts. 'go and prepare the coffee, you pouty baby.'
seokmin smiles and walks past you, dropping a kiss on your forehead. 'your pouty baby,' he says smugly and walks to the coffee machine. 'are we adding alcohol in it or not?' before you can open your mouth and reply he follows up with: 'let's add, let's make everyone drunk off our dessert.'
you cackle at this. gathering all your friends together in your shared home became a tradition, one which seok and you treasured and tried not to break. it can get too much at times, but the fact that everyone loves coming to your house cause 'it's the coziest place, you and seokmin make it so welcoming' makes your heart sing; the best part about your home is how it really feels like home and you don't even know how you both did it. maybe it's about seok's and your things mixed together, little parts of you and him scattered all over the place; or maybe 'it's because you can feel the love of you two, you know? like, it's everywhere here, it's in the air. i come in here and i feel it' as your friends say. you smile at these thoughts, feeling almost giddy inside, whipping the egg whites till they become stiff peaks. you can hear your boyfriend shuffling in the background but you pay him no mind until you hear familiar tune.
i see the crystal raindrops fall and the beauty of it all,
is when the sun comes shining through
you smile, feeling two strong arms wrap around your waist. 'i am cooking,' you mumble, when seokmin nuzzles into your neck.
'and i want to dance with my girlfriend,' he whispers and turns you around. 'tiramisu can wait. come here.' he pulls you away from the counter and moves to the middle, gently swaying you two back and forth. 'when i think of you sometime and i wanna spend some time with you,' he sings to you, smiling brightly as you give in, wrapping your arms around his neck. 'sing with me.'
you used to be very shy because nothing can compare to the beauty of seokmin's voice but with time you learned how he honestly enjoys when you sing along with him and it's hard to say 'no', when he's looking at you like that. like you hold the meaning of this world, like you are the meaning of this world for him, like even if he tries to he won't be able to look away. he always looks at you like that, like you are love and you are sun, which is ridiculous because he is love and he is sun. his fingers on your back sneak under your t-shirt to caress naked skin and you shiver, stepping closer, quietly singing: 'just the two us, building castles in the sky, just the two of us..'
'you and i,' he sings back, fully embracing you now.
he tucks his head down, plastering you both together so you are not as much as dancing but more just shuffling from side to side. it may look uncomfortable but you bask in his warmth, in his scent and it's perfect. he continues humming the song into your ear and caress your back as you grip him tighter. in moments like that you want to freeze the time and make them last forever; seokmin seems to share the same sentiment, placing a kiss on your head.
just the two of us, we can make it if we try, just the two of us
you continue to stay pressed together even when the song is over and you sigh contently, pressing a kiss on his chin. seokmin smiles and looks down on you, eyes crinkling with happiness. he leans in, kisses you with all the care in the world and then presses one quick kiss on the tip of your nose as well.
'let's get back to cooking?' you ask, slowly pulling away.
'if you promise one more dance break.' you nod at this and he smiles brightly. 'then yes, back to our tiramisu.' he lets you go and steps to check if coffee cooled down. there's a spring in his step, he's giddy from this little dance and he frankly can't wait for more, not very interested in the cooking. he eyes a huge pack of cheese next to him and adds: 'have i said that i think that's a whole lot of mascarpone?'
a/n: it's obviously 'just the two of us' song but in this rendition and oh how perfect it is for dancing in the kitchen with seok 🥰 hope your halloween went well, have some fluffy dk! more fluff can be found here - nini
