Pleasant Imagines (Jinjoo)

Gaming (short)

Sounds of slashing, shooting and characters dying could be heard along with the rapid clicking of the mouse. 

"Shitshitshit," Yujin mutters beneath her nose, the tip of her tongue sticking out, hoping she doesn't die this round. She has been playing for the past two hours.

On the verge of her character's death, Minju slid onto her lap, hugging her. Yujin puts her chin above her head, concentrating on her game.

And a few seconds later, Minju let out a huge sigh and got off.

Yujin held onto her waist before she could go anywhere. "Babe, why? Where are you going?" she got worried, knowing she has been gaming for too long.

But she didn't want her to leave.

"I'm just going to the bathroom." She watched as Minju stands up, leaving the room.

Yujin sat there, not wanting to think too much.

She continued her game but couldn't convince herself that there was nothing wrong.

Without thinking twice, wanting to spend time with Minju, she intentionally kills herself in the game and left the team.

She stood up and turned around, almost tripping over the foot of the swivel chair. But she stopped upon seeing Minju opening the door with her foot.

To her surprise, she had a small plate of cookies in one hand and a glass of milk in the other.

"I thought you—"

"I'm not letting you pass out on me. You've been playing for hours and you need to eat." Minju sets the cup on the table before shoving a piece of cookie into Yujin's mouth.

The girl stands there in awe, taking the cookie out of her mouth. "You're not mad at me?"

Minju places the plate on the table. "Mad? Why would I be mad at you for doing what you like?" she looks at Yujin whose eyes were clearly glowing.

And that's when Yujin knew. She was the one.

She hugs her girlfriend tightly and says in the sweetest way, "I love you so much." If she could hang off Minju's body like a bear, she wouldn't think twice.

Minju sneakily shoves a tiny piece of the cookie into her mouth. "I love you too," she replies. "But all of a sudden?"

"I love you so much I could eat you." Yujin pulls back, admiring the latter's face. "I mean eat with you." she slips the cookie in her hand through Minju's lips.

"You can continue gaming." the older girl pats her ass.

Yujin shook her head and lifted Minju up, earning a soft yelp. "I'd rather eat you."

And that wasn't a slip off her tongue.
