Then Came You

The Filming

She rummaged the fridge and kitchen set try to find something to made breakfast with that morning. Being a man who lived by himself and all, he seriously needed to buy groceries more often, not just tons of ramyeon in many different flavors and beers filling his fridge. 

After a while she let out a deep sighed, looked like they were going to have something that bought down the road to the filming location for breakfast. They didn't have time to wait for delivery to operate. At least he had a damn good coffee machine he spent a day all day teaching her how to use it and a lot variations of coffee beans. He could buy all of these, why couldn't he buy food?

The machine just finished brewing the coffee beans and dripping the coffee into the pot when she heard the shower being turned on. So the homeowner woke up already then. She headed to the kitchen to frothed some milk for she feeling a cup of cappuccino that morning, because she thought to get an americano on the way to work.

She was preparing the coffee when she smelled the very familiar and intoxicating oceanic scent. Gallant arms embraced her from behind. 

"Morning... Even the smell of coffee couldn't compete with yours..." He whispered in her ear, chin on her shoulder, then brushed his lips to her jaw, cheek and temple before held her tight until she gasped and took the coffee mug from her hand. She chuckled.

He slid open the thin curtain of his big glass window wall, displaying the glorious sky of sunrise, sat on the couch, not using the dining table this time. She followed him with the mug in her hand as he tapped the couch asked her to sit beside him.

"We still have sometime before Ryu-hyung picks us up..." He settled his arm around her, pulled her close. She put her head on his shoulder, closed her eyes inhaling the blend of coffee and his comforting scent. The morning she wished to have everyday for the rest of her life. The sky in front of them was so beautiful, hundred hues of blue with the lines of sun rays, brilliant and made everything gleaming, hit all the morning dew, sparkled the entire city.

"So... Birth control?" He blurted the question out nowhere, nonchalantly, while one hand stroked her hair. She lifted her head, stared at him, blinked her eye in disbelieve.

"Jinjja, Oppa? That was the kind of question you had to ask in early morning?" She let out a harsh breath. He turned his head from the window, facing her.

"Oh whae?? It just kept running around in my mind you know, the first thought I had when I woke up this morning, the thought that I had when I took the shower, heck I even thought about it when brushing my teeth. So I had to ask. Why on earth was my beautiful girlfriend on birth control? And why didn't I know about it?" He raised his eyebrow, pouted his lips. Lord he was so cute, sometimes she forgot that the man in front of her was already in his thirties. He looked like a teenage boy, made her wanted to squeezed his cheek and put him in her pocket to carry around everywhere.

"Well... If you really wanna know... Because apparently of all things happen last night all you can remember is that one specific thing..." She took a deep breath. He sipped his coffee, gazing her attentively.

"So I started to use birth control after my birthday. I thought since we're in a relationship and so many things happen in a relationship, and, well, you being you added to the mixture, this is the safest option." She shrugged her shoulder and gulped her cappuccino.

"Wha... Wait wait wait... What do you mean by me being me? So it was all my fault? I mean..." He frowned his eyebrow and shook his head. She rolled her eyes.
