Always is a Promise {Minsung}

Chapter 18

"Hyunjin, I have homework I'm supposed to be doing!" Seungmin whined.

Seungmin had a blindfold over his eyes and was being led by Hyunjin, who had a mischievous and happy grin plastered on his face. He had no idea what Hyunjin was doing, but he trusted his boyfriend, so he allowed him to guide him despite the whining.

"Not doing homework for a few hours isn't going to kill you, Seungmin," he chuckled. "I know you're going to love this."

"And if I don't?"

Hyunjin rolled his eyes. "Just trust me."

Seungmin sighed but didn't argue further. As they continued on their way, Seungmin's senses become increasingly heightened, picking up the sounds and smells around him. The ring of a bell as they entered through a door, the sweet scent of sugar and the gentle melody that was playing- where was he?

When Hyunjin finally stopped walking, he turned Seungmin around and stepped behind him. "You ready?"

Seungmin nodded. "I guess I am."

Hyunjin gently untied the blindfold, letting it fall from Seungmin's eyes as Seungmin's vision was filled with a dazzling light. He blinked as his eyes began to adjust to the lighting, his breath catching in his throat at the sight of everything.

"You always say you wish we had more time to just relax and spend time together, and you've always wanted to try this place but always felt like you were busy, so-"

Seungmin whirled around and threw himself over his neck, pulling him into a tight hug as emotions washed over him. In seconds, he placed many kisses over his face, a smile beaming from ear to ear.

"Hyunjin, thank you so much!"

Hyunjin smiled back at his boyfriend, placing a kiss on his forehead. "You're welcome, babe. Go ahead and sit down, I already ordered some things in advance for us."

He nodded as he turned around. His eyes sparkling as he looked around in excitement. The place was a cozy café, with warm lights, wooden tables, and with the smell of fresh baked goods and coffee wafting through the air, it created a calming and inviting atmosphere.

Seungmin made his way over to an empty tab.e with 2 seats, settling down as he continued to look around in pure amazement. As much as he loved it, something just felt off. Why was he brought here on all days? Was something special? Was he missing something?

Jisung then, Hyunjin returned with a tray in hand, placing it down on their table. He sat across, goody smile on his face as he leaned against his hands. "Enjoy."

Seungmin eyed him up and down. "Why'd you bring me here?"

Hyunjin chuckled nervously. "Well, uhh... You may find this a bit cheesy, but... It's been four months since we started to officially date. I wanted to do something special to celebrate."

Seungmin's jaw dropped. "It's been four months already?"

Hyunjin nodded. "It has! I know, four months isn't that big of a deal, but I don't see why we couldn't go out and celebrate with something small?"

Seungmin quickly shook his head, a smile reappearing on his face. "No, no, I love it so much."

Hyunjin visibly relaxed, reaching across the table to take Seungmin's hand in his. Seungmin welcomed the touch, star struck as he took in his boyfriend's loving gaze. He quickly leaned across the table and to place a kiss on Hyunjin's lips before grabbing one of the pastries and shoving it against Hyunjin's lips.

A small glare was given from Hyunjin as he opened his mouth, taking the pastry from his hand. "You're so annoying," he mumbled through a mouthful of food.
