Enemies | Lee Jeno NCT

chapter 25

Your POV:

"Happy birthday to you.. happy birthday to you, happy birthday to Y/N! Happy birthday to you! Woooo!" everyone sang out.

I was sitting in between Yerin and Jeno. We decided to go to a restaurant near the theme park. It wasn't too expensive, so that was good because surely none of us had big amounts of money, well, most of us.

Doyoung, Mark and Yerin were reaching their fingers out for some frosting on the cake. I knew what was coming.

"Hey!" I said dodging my face left, right, up and down to avoid getting any frosting on my face. Everyone started laughing and I pouted in defeat once some got onto the tip of my nose and on my cheek.

The waiters and waitresses that were around also started to laugh and clap their hands, gaining the attention of those who were sitting nearby.

Taeyong and Jeno put their phones away as they were recording, Jeno resting his arm on the head of my chair and turning to face me.

He stared into my eyes for a good two seconds before he started laughing. I knew why and slapped his leg.

"You know... I figured this slapping thing of yours is never gonna end so.. you should do better than that if you want me down." he said. I rolled my eyes in return and focused back onto the others who were all full-on staring at us impatiently.

"Okayy.. let's eat some cake!" I stood up and started to cut the cake that was nicely decorated. It was so pretty that I didn't even want to cut it, but I was hoping it was gonna taste good.

I put the perfectly cut slice into my plate and sat down, instantly taking a bite.

"How does it taste?" Mark asked with curiosity as he was about to take a bite of his own slice too.

"It tastes really good actually! Try some!" I said.

Mark put the fork to his mouth, trying the red velvet cake, the others helping themselves with a slice too. Mark's doe eyes lightened up after taking a bite, "Damn, that's really good."

The waiters and waitresses walked away smiling, leaving us alone.

We were all done eating our cake and I was finally gonna open my gifts. This was the best part.

"Can I open my gifts now?" I asked, totally sounding impatient because I had been waiting for this.

They all looked at each other before sending their nods towards me. Yerin passed all the gifts to me since they were kept on one side.

"You should open mine first." Doyoung said.
"Nah, I think mine."
"No way, she should open mine."
"Just let her decide!"
"Whose gift do you wanna open first, Y/N?"

I looked to see a lot of gifts set on top of the table that had been cleared. I decided to go with the one that had a gold and white stripe design on the bag.

"This one." I said as I reached out to pick it up.

I looked in front of me to see Doyoung giving me a smile, I was guessing it was his gift. I looked inside the bag to see many chocolates and jewellery. Yerin and Jeno peeped over my shoulder to look inside the bag too.

"Damn, that's a lot of chocolate." Jeno spoke out.
"Thank you Doyoung. I love it."
"You're welcome Y/N."

He displayed his gummy smile that he'd show us all once in a while. It was the smile that would wanna make you smile back almost immediately. I gladly exchanged a smile back with him and shifted my eyes to the next gift that seemed eye-catching.
