—— Seori

The grass field, adorned with twinkling lights and a scattering of delicate flowers, welcomed me as I arrived, guided by the soft glow under the starry sky. Jungwon stood in the midst of the enchanting setup, his eyes lighting up as he caught sight of me in my comfy flower dress.

I approached him with a smile, the anticipation of the night written across his face. "Hey," I greeted, my voice a blend of excitement and nervousness.

"Hey, Seori," he replied, his gaze lingering on me appreciatively. "You look beautiful."

Blushing, I thanked him and joined him on the blanket where a cozy dinner was laid out. The air was filled with a mixture of floral scents and the subtle aroma of the food. It was a dreamy scene, and my heart fluttered with a blend of emotions – excitement, curiosity, and a touch of uncertainty.

As I settled onto the blanket, Jungwon's eyes locked onto mine, his expression softening with a warmth that mirrored the gentle ambiance around us. "Seori," he began, his voice filled with a mixture of sincerity and tenderness, "tonight is special. I want it to be everything you've ever imagined."

A rush of emotions surged within me, and I couldn't help but feel a profound sense of gratitude for the effort he had put into creating this magical evening. "Thank you, Jungwon. It's already more than I could have imagined."

As we shared the dinner, the conversation flowed easily between us, a blend of lighthearted banter and the subtle undercurrent of something more profound. The twinkling lights overhead cast a soft glow on our faces, creating an intimate space that felt like a world of its own.

And as the night unfolded, with every passing moment, I couldn't escape the growing awareness that something extraordinary was about to happen. The stars above seemed to align in perfect harmony, mirroring the connection between Jungwon and me.

As we finished our meal, Jungwon reached for my hand, his gaze locking onto mine with a depth that resonated with unspoken promises. "Seori," he murmured, his voice a gentle caress, "are you ready for the moment we've been waiting for?"

My heart skipped a beat, and I nodded, a mixture of anticipation and affection coursing through me.

As Jungwon gently pulled me up from the blanket, my heart pounded in my chest, a mix of excitement and nervousness swirling within me. Standing face to face with him, I couldn't help but feel a rush of emotions coursing through me, tinged with a hint of uncertainty.

I looked up into his eyes, finding comfort and reassurance in the warmth of his gaze. His hand came up to cup my cheek, his touch sending shivers down my spine.

"Seori, are you really sure about this? Are you comfortable?" he asked softly, his voice filled with genuine concern.

I nodded, my heart fluttering with a newfound resolve. "Yes, Jungwon. I trust you," I whispered, my voice barely audible over the gentle rustle of the night breeze.

With a tender smile, Jungwon leaned in, closing the distance between us. I quickly closed my eyes, my breath catching in my throat as our lips met in a sweet, tentative kiss.

It was clumsy at first, my inexperience evident as I fumbled to find my footing in this new realm of intimacy. But Jungwon's gentle guidance led the way, his lips moving with a skill and grace that left me breathless.

I let myself melt into the kiss, allowing the warmth of Jungwon's touch to wash over me, banishing any lingering doubts or fears. His hands found their place on my waist, pulling me closer as the kiss deepened, igniting a fire within me that I never knew existed.

In that moment, time seemed to stand still, the world fading away until there was only Jungwon and me – two souls bound together by an unspoken promise of love and devotion.

As we finally pulled away, breathless and exhilarated, I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder at the magic of the moment. It was a kiss filled with passion and longing, a kiss that spoke volumes without a single word.

And as I gazed into Jungwon's eyes, my heart overflowing with emotion, I knew that this was just the beginning of our journey together – a journey filled with countless kisses, shared moments, and a love that would endure through the trials of time.

As the kiss ended, a rush of shyness and embarrassment washed over me, and I instinctively covered my face with my hands. I felt a mixture of vulnerability and joy, unsure of how to react to the overwhelming emotions that enveloped me.

Jungwon, however, gently grabbed my wrists, pulling my hands away from my face. I resisted, feeling the heat of a blush creeping up my cheeks, but he persisted. Slowly, he unveiled my face, and I couldn't bring myself to meet his gaze.

Instead, I glanced down, my fingers fidgeting nervously. Before I could fully comprehend what was happening, Jungwon leaned in and planted a soft peck on my lips, leaving me dumbfounded.

My heart raced, and I looked up at him, eyes wide with surprise. Jungwon wore a playful grin, his eyes sparkling with affection. "There, that's better," he teased, his voice warm and reassuring.

As I tried to find my words, he pulled me gently into his arms, enveloping me in a comforting embrace. The warmth of his touch and the steady rhythm of his heartbeat against mine eased the residual nervousness within me.

"Seori, you don't have to be shy. That was a beautiful moment, and I'm glad we shared it together," he murmured, his words soothing like a gentle melody.

I nodded, grateful for his understanding. Being with Jungwon felt like navigating uncharted waters, filled with both excitement and trepidation. But in his arms, I found a sense of safety and acceptance that encouraged me to embrace the unfamiliar journey ahead.

As we stood beneath the starry sky, wrapped in each other's arms, I realized that our story was unfolding in unexpected and enchanting ways. The first kiss marked the beginning of something special, and with Jungwon by my side, I was eager to discover what the future held for us.

With the echo of our first kiss lingering in the air, I felt Jungwon move behind me, his presence a comforting warmth against the cool night. Slowly, he wrapped his arms around me in a gentle back hug, and I couldn't help but sigh contentedly at the intimate connection.

His chin rested on top of my head, and together, we stood beneath the starry sky, the twinkling lights above like a celestial canvas painting stories untold. The night held a quiet magic, and in Jungwon's arms, I felt a sense of peace that transcended words.

As we stargazed together, a soft silence enveloped us, broken only by the distant rustle of leaves and the occasional whisper of the night breeze. It was a moment of quiet serenity, a pause in time where everything seemed to align perfectly.

"You know," Jungwon began, his voice a gentle murmur against my hair, "those stars up there – we claimed a couple of them, didn't we?"

I chuckled, remembering the playful evening we spent staking our claim on specific stars weeks ago. "Yeah, we did. I wonder if they remember us."

"Maybe they do," he replied, his arms tightening slightly around me. "They're witnesses to our journey, Seori, and each one tells a story of us – of the Ramen Queen and her racer."

The tenderness in his words touched my heart, and I leaned back into his embrace, savoring the closeness we shared. Beneath the vast expanse of the night sky, it felt like time slowed down, allowing us to linger in the beauty of the moment.

And as we continued to stargaze, I couldn't help but feel a profound sense of gratitude for the twists and turns that brought us to this place. With Jungwon's arms around me and the stars as our witnesses, I knew that our journey was destined for something extraordinary – a love story written across the canvas of the night, illuminated by the countless stars that bore witness to our unique connection.
