Bubble Tea Boy [Sehun] for @kpopcrazyy

Your school was unique in the sense that it was top in the entire district for track and field and boasted a variety of fast runners that could sprint to the galaxy and back in record time, figuratively, of course. But one closer look at the entire track and field team, and you would notice something different. In every game the team participated in, there would be a boy lagging behind them without fail.

People presumed that he was the water boy, charged with the task of handing out bottled water to passing runners wanting to take a break during marathon trainings and relay runs. Then again, people were often wrong. Hanging from his wrists were bulky plastic bags full of cups of bubble tea.

That was what your school was known for. It wasn't water that they handed out as a refresher, but bubble tea. Not just any ordinary bubble tea though. The tea was specially brewed with glucose water by the water boy to provide a boost of energy for the team. Over time, the water boy became known as the bubble tea boy. And his name, was Oh Sehun.

After a 5 kilometre practice run, you stumbled towards him, croaking, "Bubble tea."

"Sure thing," He tossed you a cup of bubble tea with one hand, and another cup to your fellow runner with his other. Your bubble tea contained sweet pudding which, when you were hungry, you could slurp up with the straw, filling up your stomach sufficiently to let you finish the run.

"Done," You got to your feet after passing him the empty cup.

"____ ah! I need to-----" You never got to hear him, for you were already sprinting off into the sunlight, your legs a blur as you ran and ran.

Sehun positioned his fists on his forehead and propped his elbows on his knees, sitting down. This was not the first time this had happened as he had been trying to get your attention for almost two months now. He was not even sure you knew his name. He thought you appreciated only the bubble tea, not the person you made it.

"I want to be the one that gives you energy," He whispered, a look of resolution hardening his face.

Meanwhile, you were jogging up a steep slope, your breath growing ragged as you neared the top. And running was not the only reason that you had to stop to catch your breath. Why was your heart so afflicted with Oh Sehun? He wouldn't even notice you anyway. You were just one of the runners that 'freeloaded' bubble tea, why would he even care?

After the run, you wiped your sweat away with a towel, walking towards the exit. Sehun chased after you, finally reaching your side after an arduous struggle up the stairs with the leftover bubble tea.

"Wait! I wanted to tell you something!"

You wore a curious expression. "Ne?"

"______ ah, ever since I got assigned the role of bubble tea boy, I have been in love with you. Whether it's passing you homemade bubble tea, with pudding or with pearls, or going to the supermarket with you to purchase glucose water, one thing is clear. I want to be your energy, the one that you will think of every time you run."

"But you are a runner and I'm just a kid you barely even stop to look in the eyes."

"And you're the bubble tea boy and I'm just a runner out of hundreds of kids that grab cups of bubble tea."

"I love you too, Oh Sehun," You chuckled, your eyes wrinkling into crescent moons.

His lips met yours halfway. It was your first kiss but as he clutched at your shoulder protectively, you kissed back without hesitation. His soft lips tasted like bubble tea, his hot breath misting your glasses ever so slightly. This was paradise, this was heaven. It was nothing like you had ever experience before.

Your heart beat faster, and it was not just because of the long and exhausting run.

"Will you be mine?" Sehun was staring at you intensely now, a slight smile tugging at the ends of his lips. You couldn't say no.

But you didn't say yes either. Instead, you burst out laughing, rolling on the floor like a buffalo. Sehun's eyebrows were knitted together as he assessed the situation. As the light of realisation dawned on him, he carried you, bridal style, and gave you a quick kiss on the nose.

"That's what you get for laughing at my confession. And, by the way, I'm still expecting an answer~"

"Y-Yes," You stuttered, gasping for air after a long laughing spell.

It was funny how love could slip into everything, even everyday circumstances. After Sehun had offered to send you back home to announce the joyful news to your parents, a full cup of bubble tea stood at the spectator stands, gleaming in the moonlight. Across the cup, were the words, "Sehun + _____ = Forever"

And it was funny how bubble tea could spark a relationship that lasted for years and years. Even more so, it marked the start of an unlikely love between runner and bubble tea boy.

This is completely out of my own imagination keke~

I've started a new fanfiction [Underdog] starring Park Mi Yun (OC) and EXO! Many people are anticipating it, so be sure to check it out! Thank you :)

This one shot has been requested by @kpopcrazyy. Enjoy!

I'm off to try to update Underdog. If I am not able to, the update should be up by Tuesday, along with a Chanyeol one shot and (maybe) a Chen crack one shot.

Should the Chanyeol one shot (sad ending requested) be a sequel to the heartbreaking 'Mianhae'? Should it? After all, we don't know if the girl died~
