i wish that you would stay in my memories, but you show up today just to ruin things.

the door chimed open, a familiar cherry scent following in as well. a scent that jaehyun has grown accustomed to. a scent that made his heart skip and sent his stomach doing cartwheels. his mind chanting yoohyeon like a mantra. the smile on his face growing, making dimples appear. he captured her eyes in his, those eyes that put him under this love spell. 

" how's my number one customer doing today? ", jaehyun asked as she gave him a peck on his cheek as quick as possible. his ears turning red, as he turned away from her to make a drink. cherry blossoms. the name of the drink she always ordered at the cafe. 

she watched him make her the drink, his hands moving swiftly. an experienced barista at work. jaehyun heard her reach for the tissue, the thought of her writing a poem for him jumped into his mind once again, capturing his full attention on the sounds he heard. 

the rustling of the pen against the paper, the soft tapping of the pen on the countertop, her heels against the tiles. everything about her presence held a hold on jaehyun that made his heart race. he felt like he was back in high school all over again, having a useless crush on someone way out of his league. 

" there you go ", he turned back around to catch her focused on the tissue in front of her, tongue peeking out. she was cute. he nudged her with the cup, which she didn't respond to. " yoohyeon, look at me. here's your drink ", he dragged her name, leaning closer to her over the countertop. jaehyun stared at her to get her attention. his eyes taking in her figure and the calming presence that she gave off everytime jaehyun meets her. 

she looks up all of sudden, catching his eyes in surprise. a smile appeared on her face as she poked the dimple on his face with her pen. " you're so cute ". 

jaehyun put a hand on his chest dramatically, " me? cute? in this horrible, horrible brown apron and a birds nest on my head ". yoohyeon poked his dimple again, " even as a vampire i think you'd still look cute, with fangs and all ". they looked at each other in the eye before breaking into laughter. 

yoohyeon quickly wrote down words on the tissue paper away from jaehyun's view. satisfied she held the tissue in her hand as she paid for the drink she had ordered. " and i hope we meet again my lady ". those words came out in a posh accent from jaehyun. 

" thank you kind sir ". yoohyeon gave him a polite smile, lowering her head just like they did in the movies. she slid the tissue paper into his hand, turning to leave quickly.

" yoohyeon ", she heard him call out as she walked towards the exit of the coffee shop, heart beating fast " your drink ".  

she checked her drink and saw that he had written you look like the angel in my dreams in place of her name. the smile on her face only grew wider as she saw his eyes widen at the tissue paper she had given him. 

there are many things in the world that someone finds attracted to, 
mine would be dimples,
that appear just for me,
messy soft hair for me to run my hand through,
lips that would mold perfectly onto mine, 
if we ever kissed 
and eyes that held the universe in them,
just for me.
