🌻Daegu - 2:00pm🌻4 Days later🌻

SW
Let me summarise the last four days as simply as I can.
The next day it poured again. We held hands as we sprinted to the supermarket, Tae basically dragging me as I struggled to keep up.
We ate micro waved marshmellows thinking that they would cook the same way they would over fire but we were wrong and ended up eating goey burnt marshmellows.
We fell fast asleep on the sofa after twenty million movies.

Day number two , we played scrabble and watched movies while the sun shone but the roads were being pumped.

Day three we shared our first kiss since Tae's parents seen us. A quick almost, almost peck while we watched a movie.

And day four, well. Tae's parents took the risk of going to the supermarket and ended up ringing to say they wouldn't be able to make it back until much later due to the rain damage maintainance.

I don't think we did anything except for kiss that day. It started on the sofa , Tae leaning over me while we made out. I think I was more confident this time but I can't ask. His soft hand slipping under my top and massaging my stomach making me quiver.
Somehow we made it to Tae's bedroom where we lay down and I straddled him again . My urges rising .
His hands squeezed my bum gently rocking me forward and back every now and again to grind on him.
I felt myself becoming more and more comfortable with what we were doing. I even felt like I was dominant for a few seconds.
This time Three weeks ago I would have never seen myself doing this never.
His parents returned quicker then expected.

I open the fridge and look for the milk when I feel two hands slip over my waist to my stomach and a head appear on my shoulder.

"What are you looking for?" Tae asks between kisses that he gently plants on my neck. I lean my neck into him smiling as it tickles.

"The milk." I smile and snigger as it tickles.
"Right there." He points and walks off to the toaster. My smile drops slightly but reappears knowing he will do anything to annoy me and is looking for a reaction right now.

I grab the milk and head to the table where my cereal sits. It's 25° outside the digital clock reads.

"Do you want to go to the town today?" Tae asks as he sits down opposite me to eat his toast.

I mumble as my mouth is full. "Mhm hm."

It's half three by the time we are showered and dressed and hop into the car to go.
"Seat belt." Tae reminds me as he adjust the car mirrors.

Ten minutes later we arrive. We head straight to the ice cream parlour and share the ice cream titled 'couples ice cream' , on the docks.

"You've got..." I laugh at Tae as I wipe a napkin over his chin to take the ice cream off it.

Hand in hand we wander around looking into all the shops at my asking. I think back to the last time I was here. Comparing my happiness then to now , well there's really no comparison.

"This or the red one, or the green or the black and purple?" I ask a half asleep Tae who rests on the changing room sofa.
"Mhmm what? Oh , ehm, that one , yeah that one." He rubs his eyes.

"Tae you said that about every other one!" I half laugh.

"You look beautiful in every single one of them , I can't decide." He says as he closes his eyes and rests his head back.
I blush quite hard. I don't think I will ever get used to compliments like that.

We stroll through the streets as Tae takes random pictures of me every now and again on my camera.

"Wow you look like a model!" He gasps as he looks through them. His eyes widening.

I blush being embarrassed.

"Get in the selfie !" I called Tae from where he was looking in a shop window behind me at a Gucci Belt and Tae combo.

He strides over happily, hugging me from behind and resting his head on my shoulder as he raises his eyebrows and grins looking at me.

I snap the shutter and review the picture as he peeps over my shoulder still hugging me from behind .

"Nice." He smiles as he kisses my neck .

I drag him to a printing shop to get it printed out and slide his into the back of his phone case so he won't lose it.

We return home at a slightly late 10pm and head straight to bed.

I lie beside a fast asleep Tae staring up at the ceiling with a smile. The moonlight sends shadows dancing across the ceiling in a swirling pattern .

I wish that moment could have lasted forever ,

But it didn't.
