winter | winter's promise

the heat in buildings are on, signalling winter was here. winter had a love hate relationship with many people. many people loved the days you got to stay in, or the days you got to cuddle with your significant other, warming up each other by drowning in their embrace.

most people hated winter for the harsh cold, the feeling of not feeling their nose and cold feet before bed was hell but you on the other hand favored winter. winter brought you closer to the love of your life.

winter gave you a reason to wake up early and make breakfast, gave you a reason to look forward to having cookies with warm milk. winter was amazing. however Winter wasn't the only reason you did all those things.

the other reason being your girlfriend, winter or kim minjeong. despite her stage name being winter, her personality is the total opposite of her name. minjeong is the warmest person you've ever met in your life.

she often sleep late since she had no choice but to stay up most of the night to practice her singing and dancing. minjeong is normally sore in the morning, always waking up later than you so you preferred to make her breakfast and let her have breakfast in bed, her favourite.

although most of the days you'd rather just stay in bed and cuddle minjeong while admiring her good looks. it's cute how her lips are parted slightly whenever she sleeps. she'd whimper from time to time during sleep, pulling you closer to her whenever she feels like you're a little too far from her.

today was one of those days, your legs tangled together and you have your arms around her waist, winter fell asleep on your chest while you guys were watching something on the phone together and hasn't moved since. there was no way you were going to move now. not when your girlfriend is so darn cute and squishy.

you brought your thumb up and caressed her soft cheek, wondering how in the world did you manage to pull thee minjeong. minjeong, an idol loved by every girl and boy, had chosen you.

you remember the day you first met her, you were just doing your job at the cafe like normal when suddenly aespa came up to the counter. ever since then, minjeong always came and stop by the cafe everyday just to see you and talk to you.

it was nice to have a short conversation with an idol almost everyday, but just as you thought it couldn't get any better, minjeong slipped in her phone number in between the cash while making the payment.

lost in your thoughts, you didn't even notice the dark brown eyes open, nor did you notice the cute smile the eyes owner gave.

"love, why are you up" minjeong asked, her voice a little hoarse. your eyes and attention now shifting to the girl you're cuddling with

"after all those toss and turns from you how could i still be asleep" you jokingly said aswrapped your arms around her harder, she lets out a grunt as her hand move to hit your chest lightly before proceeding to bury her face in your chest, not wanting to wake up and get out of the cozy blanket.

"can we just cuddle, its too cold" she whispered, eyelids growing heavier and heavier. you couldn't say no, and just quietly pull her closer to you. minjeong moved and positioned herself in your arms comfortably before dozing off to dreamland once again.

hours passed and you've almost finished reading colleen hoover's most popular book that you haven't touched in a while. minjeong still sleeping soundly in your arms, the sound fo her breathing filled the room.

you put the book aside, as your hand snaked up to minjeong's shoulder. slowly shaking her, you smiled as you see her slowly opening your eyes.

"i wanna sleep more.." she covered her face and snuggled up closer to you making your heart warm inside.

"honey, im bored and it's almost 2pm" you mumbled, minjeong moved around and let out a sigh. she then raised her head, looking at you with her eyes half opened.

"can i have a kiss?" she asked out of nowhere

you didnt even get to answer but the next thing you know is winter's soft lips are now brushing against yours, it caught you off guard but it made you smile.

"hone-"

winter placed a soft peck on your lips, her eyes are sleepy. with her eyes still half open, she got on top of you and layed on top of you. she perked her head up, looking at you with her lips pouted waiting for you to connect your lips to hers. her sleepy eyes became wide awake when she realised you're just looking at her with a grin

"hm" she pouted, looking at you with disappointment

"why are you not kissing me" she pouted, before leaning in to place her lips against yours again. but you just stayed still

"okay stop whatever jokes you got going on right now" she said cupping your face, looking at you with anger in her eyes but you just cant take her seriously, she looked cute rather than scary. you burst out laughing seeing how she's trying to act scary.

"come here" you smiled, pulling her in but she pulled away

"no,"

"now im not in the mood" she whined, letting her head fall on your chest. her fingers drew circles on your chest. your arm wrapped around winter's waist tightly, pulling her warm body into yours.

"pleaseee, i was just teasing youu" you said planting kisses on the top of her head. winter didn't react to your words, you figured she's not really in the mood for jokes as she just woke up.

that's one thing about her, you can't bother her right after she wakes up. that's when she's the most sensitive.

"im sorry honey" you said pulling the blanket, covering you and winter who is om top of you. winter whined and tried to squirm herself out in response, your hand moved to hug her tighter. as time passed her movements slows down and you can feel her hot breath against your neck, calm and steady.

"promis me to never do that again.." she frowned, picking up her head as you immediately connect your lips with hers making her flash a cute smile.

"let's sleep, a bit more" she mumbled and lay her head on top of your chest. slowly drifting off to dreamland as she cuddles with you in this cold winter weather.
