Kihyun

~Hoseok's flat~

  As I walked up the last few steps to the door leading to Hoseok's floor, I shuffled the bags of groceries that I was holding to my left hand and opened the door. When  I got to his front door, I realized that I didn't know what was his password. So, I rang the doorbell several times. But, Hoseok didn't come to the door.  "He probably is too sick to come to the door," I mumbled.

I set down the bags and pulled out my phone to call him but only to discover that the battery ran out. "God damn it." Wait, it couldn't be... I pushed up the lid on the lock and typed in our anniversary date. And instantly, the door unlocked. Hoseok....

When I walked in with the bags of food at hand, I looked around to see signs of life but didn't find any. He is probably in his room. But, what did catch my eyes was the photos of us when we were still dating. I smiled softly as I remembered the memories that are held in them.  To the left of the table, there was a photo of teenage Hoseok was kissing me on the cheek while teenage me was trying to keep him from doing so halfheartedly.

~flashback~

"Yah! Shin Hoseok! Stop it, you dummy," I said and shoved at his chest to get away from his bombardment of kisses. He ignores me and grabs me around my shoulders before giving me a noogie.  "Yah," I shrieked and elbowed him in his stomach. He whines and lets me go finally. I smirked at him and ran.

"Come back and let me love you," he shouts as he gave chase.

"No," I said jokingly while laughing. 

After a few minutes of running away, I sat down on a bench to catch my breath. When I leaned back against the bench with my face tilted to the sky, a pair of soft plump lips found purchase between my eyebrows. I turned around quickly and swatted at the suspect but missed. Hoseok had dodged and was chuckling so hard he held onto his stomach.

In the next second, I jumped onto him and he caught me effortlessly. I grabbed onto his cheeks and pinched them hard in retilation.

He looks at me with puppy dog eyes and pouts.

"Ah~ Minanhae," I said before kissing him  on the lips as an apology.

A/N: Thought that some of you might be wondering what kind of couple Kiho was...
