TWISTED TIES | JoongDunk

When Joong said he knows a nice place somewhere that they could have dinner together, Dunk thinks of a restaurant just across the bar, a simple dining place where people go.

He didn't expect something as a cruise ship five star diner. He didn't even had dressed for anything such.

"Joong,"

"I know what you're thinking but I don't know if you're gonna agree the next time so I'm taking advantage that you're here now."

"You know I would agree, you just need to ask politely." Dunk giggles making Joong's lips curl into a smile. He starts to get serious so Dunk was trying to make an effort to lighten the mood.

They settled on a table near the railing where the view is lovelier.

"The night is so pretty." Dunk excitedly munch on his food, he wants to finish eating fast so he could take pictures of the view.

"Calm down. We're not going home early." Joong reaches to wipe the smudge on the side of his mouth. "Eat slowly, you're gonna choke on your food."

Dunk blushes but he's too excited to not speak about the view. "I want to take pictures. Can you take pictures of me after we eat?"

"Yes, of course. We can also take pictures together if you want." Dunk nods.

"Of course!"

"There will be fireworks later."

"Really?"

"Of course, Dunk." Joong can't help but softly hold his small face. He retreats his hand as fast as he falls into a trance. "Sorry. You're just too cute."

Dunk grabbed the glass of water and gulped it down out of panic.

Dunk poses cutely making Joong laugh behind the phone.

"Okay, that's enough. You're gonna be out of storage soon."

"Yeah but it's nice to have more options to post later."

They were scrolling through the pictures when they heard people gasp. The fireworks started. Dunk ran to the railing and took pictures.

"So pretty! Look!"

Joong slowly walked to his side and wrapped an arm around his waist. Dunk giggles while he shows the pictures he has taken while Joong scans them, his chin on Dunk's shoulder.

"Enough with your phone. Let's enjoy this night without distractions, hmm?"

Dunk looks and nods. He's right. He should enjoy the night with Joong, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he only dreamed of this moment and didn't expect it to come true, to spend a night in a fancy cruise ship and a beautiful sky above. This is too good to be true.

'This is so romantic!' He thought, he looked at the sky as he basked in the feeling of Joong's presence.

There was a moment of silence while they enjoy the beautiful display of colors flickering above them.

"Dunk."

"Hmm?"

He reluctantly and carefully looked back at Joong who's now looking all serious.

"I know this is too early.."

Dunk's heart might jump out of his chest any moment now.

"..but I feel like I should say this, I just can't wait for the perfect timing."

Dunk's throat was too dry to speak so he nodded, persuading him to continue.

"I think, I'm starting to like you."
