*At a apartment in Italy, Milan* *7am*
The sound of oil can be heard at the wee-hours in the morning from a quaint apartment in Milan, Italy. Standing by the stove, was a beautiful dark-haired woman, whose skin was as white as snow. Dressed in an oversize shirt that clearly was too large for her, she was humming while cooking.
The woman softly tip-toed to the fridge, careful to not wake up the half naked man sleeping in the bedroom. Today was not a special day, but seeing how both of them had been so busy lately, finally being granted an off day, she decided to make breakfast and serve it to him in bed.
She began frying up the eggs and sausages. Normally she would want to cook a typical Korean breakfast but seeing how eating rice in bed was not the cleanest of actions, she decided to stick to something more western for now. After the eggs and sausages were done, she went onto frying the pancakes with the batter she had made earlier.
Within the next 10 minutes, she had finished cooking breakfast. She poured a couple of coffee and put it all onto a tray. As quietly as she could, she walked over to the bedroom and lightly tried to wake up the sleeping man.
"Seokhoon-ah, wake up. There is something I wish to show you." she lightly whispered into his ear. Seokhoon began to stir and slowly opened his eyes. After his eyes had adjusted to the light coming through from the curtain, he saw probably the most beautiful person in front of him. Not really wanting to get up, he grabbed the beautiful woman on top of him and tried to drag her back to bed.
"No, no Seokhoon-ah, I have something I need to show you first, please get up." Rona pleaded. Hearing the slight plea in her voice, Seokhoon quickly got up and sat upright in bed. "Stay there Seokhoon, do. not. move." Rona said in a stern voice. She quickly ran out of the room, and walked back carrying the breakfast tray. Seokhoon was pleasantly surprised by this.
"Yah. Rona what is all this?" Seokhoon asked. Rona smiled, and said "Well I think it's quite obvious what this is, but for your sake I will clarify, this is called "Breakfast in bed"."
"I know what this is Rona, I meant to ask why the sudden breakfast in bed gift." Seokhoon asked again. "Well, lately we two have been rather busy with our tour, after our visit to Korea we didn't really see each other for the next 2 weeks because we both individually were touring. But now we finally have 2 days off with each other, so I wanted to do something special for you. So ta-da. I hope you like it."
"I will like it if we eat it together." Seokhoon replied. Rona, smiling at him, adjusted so she was sitting opposite him on the bed. Rona insisted that Seokhoon start eating first before she too dug in. They had a quiet but simple start to the morning. As they had not been back in Italy for 2 weeks, they needed to do some basic errands around the house.
Rona noticed they were slowly running out of food and there was quite a ton of laundry they needed to get done. After Seokhoon cleaned up the dishes, they did the laundry, while waiting for the laundry to finish. They each took a different corner of the house and began cleaning. When they had finished the laundry, luckily the majority of their clothes got immediately put into the dryer; only the more delicate pieces needed to be hung up for drying.
All in all it was about 2 hours before they dressed up to leave the house to do their grocery shopping. Since Julliard, as the two of them continue to grow as a couple their fashion choices have begun to mirror each other. It is often that the two of them who prepared their outfits separately found themselves often in couple looks - today was no different. It was spring in Italy, so both could wear more casual and light outfits as opposed to winter time.
It takes about 10 minutes for them to walk from their apartment to the nearest supermarket. They spent the next 1 hour or so buying their essentials. Ever since the two of them started to live on their own from the age of 19. They started to cook more often, this was a huge improvement especially for Seokhoon who always grew up having helpers in the kitchen. He had to learn the hard way, but cooking time was one of the best ways they spend time together as a couple. So as much as Seokhoon was not good at it, he loved it when Rona was patient enough to teach him how.
After they had bought all they needed, they returned back home. As today was their off day, neither of them had much to do. It was rare they both had similar off days, at times their schedule would be vastly different, when Rona had an off day and was in Italy, Seokhoon would be in France performing and vice versa. So the fact that both had two consecutive off days together, they cherished it even more.
After putting the groceries away, Seokhoon told Rona that he had to make a few work related calls first, he wouldn't take too long. Rona smiled and understood, by that time the clothes from the dryer had finished. She took them out and in their living room she began to fold them away.
30 minutes later, Seokhoon emerged from their shared study, by then Rona had finished folding the clothes and was now in the kitchen cooking lunch. Rona had her hair tied back; a couple of small strands of hair were falling out from her ponytail. Seokhoon was just amazed by her beauty, there standing in their kitchen was his girlfriend with a simple white tee shirt and home shorts and an apron tied around her. The more he looked, the more he was overwhelmed by love for her.
Seokhoon snuck up behind her and put his arms around her waist. The white neck near him was so tempting that he just couldn't resist putting his lips onto it. He kept showering her with kisses. Rona giggled and elbowed him to stop. Seokhoon eventually let her go when Rona announced that lunch was ready.
Rona had cooked a simple fried rice dish with shrimp. They sat at their dining table and ate, while eating they were discussing their upcoming schedule. Rona had 2 upcoming concerts planned; one in Paris another in New York, while Seokhoonn had 2 piano concerto in the next week. Luckily, neither were going back on tour anytime soon. Both had just finished a year long worldwide tour and even though they both started at different timings, their tours luckily ended around the same time.
Soon the day passed, and it was time for bed. Rona was in bed but yet Seokhoon had not arrived, however with such a fruitful day. Rona passed out as soon as her head hit the pillow. Seokhoon soon entered the bedroom, seeing Rona fast asleep. He quietly got into bed and arranged her so that her head was on his shoulder, his arm around her shoulder.
He pecked her forehead goodnight and whispered "I love you Rona." Soon he was joining her in sweet slumber.
