"are you playing games?" you hear yunho ask.
you look up to see him walking into the living room. he sits down next to you while you return to the gaming device in your hands.
"i'm catching pokèmon," you mention while moving your character in the game.
"have you been playing while i was playing games?" he asks.
you nod with a hum. "yea, but you said you would help me cook, so i was just waiting for you to be done."
"oh, babe. you should've just grabbed me," yunho says and reaches over to kiss you. "come on, let's go cook."
"hang on, i need to catch another pokèmon," you say to him.
"let me see," he replies. you move to lay against him. yunho wraps his arms around you and watches the screen as you continue to play. "which one? that one?" he points.
"no, there's another one i'm looking for," you reply. "it's a tiny sloth dude who appears on a tree. i haven't had much luck finding him, and i'm supposed to find him around here," you explain to him.
"did you just call a pokemon "dude"?" yunho questions.
you tilt your head back as much as you can to get a glimpse of his face. "you literally call me that like everyday," you reply.
"this is a creature in a video game we're talking about. a fictional creature," yunho says to you.
"okay, dude," you emphasize, "you try looking for it." you hand him the gaming device. "just run back and forth through the loading zones until—"
"i've seen people play pokèmon before, dude. i know what i'm doing," yunho says to you and starts moving your character around.
"can you stop calling me that?" you ask him.
"so what should i call you?" he asks.
"oh i don't know, "baby," "honey," "babe," "love of my life." there's plenty of options," you say to him.
"sorry dude. maybe later," yunho replies, making you roll your eyes with a huff. he snickers at your reaction.

while yunho continued playing, you had accidentally fallen asleep against him. yunho lets you sleep despite you wanting to cook with him.
however, your switch signals that it's going to die soon. yunho saves the game and turns the device off. he manages to set it on the floor next to the couch and gently tries to wake you up.
"baby," he calls out to you and runs his fingers through your hair. "baby, time to get up," he says to you.
"what time is it?" you ask, still having your eyes closed.
"time for us to cook," yunho replies. he really doesn't know what time it is.
you get up and stretch your arms up. "sorry for sleeping on you," you apologize to him.
he shakes his head with a smile. "it's okay. come on, time for me to help in the kitchen," he says to you.
"yea, you might just be standing there the whole time," you admit to him.
"you mean...i could've kept playing upstairs?"
"um, no?"
"your ears are turning red."
"if you don't come with me, you're not getting dinner."
