"Jagi~." My boyfriend, Eric Nam, cooed. We were sitting on his couch watching some random TV show. "Yes, oppa?" I answered, turning to look at him.
"I have a surprise for you. Close your eyes and put your hands out." "Oppa~. Please dont hurt me or scare me." I pleaded, giving him a puppy dog face.
"I promise, now close your eyes and put your hands out." I did as he said, and prayed that my other senses wouldnt fail me. After a couple seconds of Eric shuffling around, I felt him place a small box in my hand.
Oh my GD dont tell me he is proposing! We havent even been together that long! My thoughts were abandoned as I opened my eyes to find a box of pepero sticks and not a box with a ring.
"Umm oppa? What is this?" "Its a box of pepero sticks, i thought maybe we could play the pepero game." Eric explained, scratching the back of his neck.
I blushed a bright red before lookng from the box to my lovely boyfriend. "Y-yeah. We can play." Eric's eyes widened like a childs on Christmas morning.
"Really? Are you sure? I mean its ok if you dont wa-." "Oppa, i already said yes." I cut him off before he started listing reasons why it was ok for me to say no and that i shouldnt let him pressure me into stuff.
"Ok." Eric said, opening the box. I grabbed one when he went to the bathroom and began munching on it happily.
By the time he got back i was already on my 3rd stick. They were just so delicious. "Jagi? How many did you eat?" Eric asked me, pointing to the stick in my mouth and down to the open box directed toward me.
"Umm 3." I mumbled, putting the rest of the delicious bread stick in my mouth before smiling cutely at him. "Aish, what am i going to do with you?" Eric teased sitting next to me.
"You could forgive me because it wasnt my fault you left the box here in front of me." I said, sitting cross-legged, facing him.
"I'll keep that in mind. Now are you sure you want to do this?" "Yes oppa, gosh you're making it seem like we are about to do something bad like murder someone or rob a bank."
"Can we?" Eric asked, looking at me before smiling. "Aish, what am i going to do with you?" I said, trying to imatate his voice, failing miserably making Eric laugh and accidently break the perpero stick he was holding.
"Oops, oh well, alls fair in love and food."Eric said, smiling at his own joke. I grabbed one half of it and popped it into my mouth making Eric gasp.
"That was mine! You already had 3!" Eric shouted. "Alls fair in love and food!" I said, smiling. "Not when its my food! You just better be glad i love you." "I love you too, Nammy." I said using the nickname i knew he hated.
"Aish, lets start." He said, placing a new stick between his lips. Facing him, i put the other end in my mouth.
"Ok, you go." Eric mumbled, motioning for me to bite first. "No, you go first, you're the man." I said back, trying not to break the stick. "Just g-." Eric tried to argue but accidently broke the stick.
"Nice going oppa." I teased, eating the remaining piece. "Yah, fine ill go first." Eric said, grabbing another stick and putting in his mouth. "OK."
"Go." I mumbled, motioning with my hand to come forward. Eric began closing the distance between us. I closed my eyes, slightly nervous.
As he got closer i could feel his breath hitting the top of my lip. I slowly opened one eye to find Eric about 3 inches away, looking down at my lips.
I tilted my head softly, looking at him. As if realizing he wasnt alone, he blushed and continued until our lips were almost touching.
I decided to take control so i took a tiny bite and closed the distance between us, catching Eric off guard. When he realised what i had done he quickly kissed back, smiling.
Pulling away, I looked down only to have Eric tilt my head back up. "I love you ____. But what you did will not go unpunished." "I understand but first you have to catch me!" I quickly got up and ran toward my bedroom making Eric get up and follow.
"And that honey is how i knew your father and i were meant to be." I looked at my daughter who was laying with me on my bed. "Oh umma i love that story. I hope one day i meet a guy like appa." My daughter, SooKyung, said.
"I dont know, im pretty one of a kind." Eric said, smiling before laying down next to me and kissing my daughter on the head. I smiled at him.
"Yes you are."
