killing stalking (sunsun) 18+

chapter 19 : clumsy

After freshening up, Sunghoon tossed a jacket at Sunoo with a casual "Hey, catch!" Sunoo's face scrunched up as he puffed out his cheeks, his lack of coordination evident as he struggled to catch the garment.

As Sunghoon adjusted his long black coat and fixed his collar, Sunoo asked, "Are we going somewhere?" Sunghoon's smirk hinted at a surprise, and he pressed Sunoo's chin upwards, his voice low and teasing. "For ice-skating."

At the rink, Sunghoon glided effortlessly across the ice, while Sunoo stumbled and struggled to find his balance. After a particularly brutal fall, Sunoo sulkily claimed, "Ouch, there was a rock!" Sunghoon chuckled mockingly, "Ahh, I see. There weren't any rocks here. Get up."

As Sunghoon pulled Sunoo to his feet again, he sighed, "It feels like I'm teaching a chimpanzee. I'm only going to explain this one more time." With a patient tone, he continued, "You need to use the pizza wedge position. You keep making them parallel. When you're going down the slope, your turns need to be sharp and quick."

As Sunghoon gently brushed the hair out of Sunoo's eyes, Sunoo's cheeks flushed slightly, his gaze fixed on Sunghoon's instructive hands."

Sunghoon's hands gently patted Sunoo's cheeks as he offered words of encouragement. "That's how you slow down, okay?" But despite his best efforts, Sunoo's attempts at ice-skating ended in a series of graceless tumbles. Each fall was met with a growing pout, his frustration evident as he struggled to find his footing.

Sunghoon watched him with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he sighed. "Brat, get up." The command was soft, but firm, and Sunoo slowly rose to his feet, his gaze meeting Sunghoon's. For a moment, their eyes locked, and Sunoo's heart skipped a beat as he found himself drawn to Sunghoon's quiet confidence, his attractiveness somehow heightened by his patient demeanor.

As they strolled through the snow-covered landscape, Sunghoon glided effortlessly, his footsteps light and graceful. In stark contrast, Sunoo's feet seemed to have a mind of their own, slipping and sliding on the icy surface. He tumbled to the ground once more, his arms flailing wildly as he struggled to regain his balance.

Sunghoon's expression remained impassive, his eyes rolling heavenward in a gesture of exasperated amusement. "Tsk, he's a chimpanzee for sure." The words were spoken with a dry, deadpan delivery, his poker face a testament to his ability to maintain a composed demeanor even in the face of Sunoo's hapless antics.

As they continued their winter stroll, Sunoo's struggles to navigate the snow-covered terrain provided a comical counterpoint to Sunghoon's effortless stride. But their leisurely pace was soon disrupted when Sunghoon accidentally collided with a young woman, his quick reflexes allowing him to grasp her wrist and steady her.

"Hey, watch!" he exclaimed, his concern etched on his face. The girl's gratitude was immediate, her smile radiant as she thanked him. "Thank you, gentleman."

Sunghoon's expression turned solicitous. "I think you sprained your ankle. You'll want to put ice on it as soon as possible." The woman's laughter was flirtatious, her eyes sparkling with mirth. "Thank you so much!"

Sunghoon's response was charmingly gracious, his smile disarming. "No problem." As they parted ways, Sunoo watched with a mixture of fascination and envy, his own clumsiness forgotten in the face of Sunghoon's effortless charm.

Sunghoon slipped his hands into his pockets and continued walking, but Sunoo remained rooted to the spot, his gaze fixed on the ground. Sunghoon halted, his eyes narrowing as he turned to face Sunoo. "Let's go, chimp."

Sunoo's sigh was audible, his voice laced with a hint of jealousy. "I'm hurt too." Sunghoon's eyebrow arched, his tone skeptical. "You're fine."

Sunoo's protest was vehement, his words tumbling out in a rush. "I fell so many times! There's no way I'm fine!" His inability to conceal his jealousy was palpable, his eyes flashing with a mixture of emotions as he gazed at Sunghoon.
