"if we were frogs do you think we would still be lovers and sit on leaves together?" the question came out of baji's mouth as if it was the most normal thing he could ever say.
you mouthed a 'what the fuck' yet you sat back further sinking into the sofa you were on, you thought of an answer. do frogs love? you probably would still love him as a frog or not. you didn't understand why but you were actually milking your brain to answer his question.
"depends on the situation, we probably would be lovers. unless you were born in a lake in another country or something. but still, if you were somehow caught by someone and brought to my lake then yes i guess." you were about to add to your statement until you see baji staring like an amused kid.
your eyebrows raised together, confused as to what was causing him to grin that way.
his hands suddenly swung up and landed on both side of your face, a small soft tap was received upon them arriving. his breathe was dancing on your face and his mischievous smile was still stuck on his lips. his eyes were slightly crinkled on the sides from his smile. how beautiful, you thought.
"i think we would." he answered.
"would what?"
"would still be lovers." he answered again.
a faint smile unconsciously arrived on your lips hearing his answer. this side of him is your favorite. carefree, gentle and it almost reminds you of a pure hearted soul of a child.
you were about to say your opinion but before a breathe could even get out from your mouth, he continued talking.
"i feel like we're fated, you know, even if we're frogs i feel like we should still be lovers. i'll swim to wherever you are so we can have a small frog house together. or whatever, i guess."
his face was flushed all the way to his ears and yet it was obvious how hard he was trying to keep his cool bad boy demeanour going. it almost made you giggle on how clear he was being.
baji is a tough person, always acting according to his head and is hard not on others but also himself. at least that's what others think. somehow, after you both started loving each other, he kept surprising you with his unexpected charms and behaviours.
the thing is, whenever he accidentally acted a little extra cute, he wouldn't realise it at all and would keep putting on an almost straight face thinking he's still fooling you. he never does. you could see through him like a clear glass and the thought of it makes your heart feel light.
this moment was an example of him expressing a side of him that he never showed anyone else but you and his beloved mother, a side that melts your heart everytime. never in a thousand years did you expect to have someone you're this in love with to ever end up with you. you're lovesick and you can't help but to admit it.
you yourself was feeling your cheeks get hot by the time you realise how romantically you were thinking of him. you looked at his face and his blush were still lingering around his cheeks and ears. this created a faintly tense atmosphere in the room you were both in.
"hey, can i kiss you?" his voice was warm and inviting, yet careful and cautious. you nodded a yes with a small laugh.
