A Lost Bunny 🐰

Part 4

"Um...I know my apartment is small, but if you'd like, you can stay the night," you say shyly.

"Oh no, I wouldn't want to be a burden to you," he says.

You look up at him smiling, "No, no, it's fine. Please, I insist. You can take the bed and I'll sleep on the couch."

He hesitates for a moment. "Hm...alright. Are you sure you're okay with sleeping on the couch though?" He asks you with a serious look on his face.

"Yes it's fine. I've fallen asleep reading on the couch plenty of times. I have no problem falling asleep since it's a pretty comfortable couch." You give Wonho a reassuring smile.

"Well then, I guess it's fine," he returns a smile. "At least let me help with dinner later."

"Sure, if you'd like to. We can use these vegetables," you lift up the bag you were holding to your forehead, "they're already defrosting anyways," you say, making Wonho laugh. You have a look of confusion on your face before smiling. You didn't realize your stupid joke would actually be funny. You laugh with Wonho anyways.

Wonho responds to the text he had received. "Hm..." Wonho says while looking at the time on his phone. "It's only 4:30pm, a bit early to start making dinner. What should we do in the meantime?" he asks as he puts his phone back in his pocket.

You point to your DVD shelf as you get up to put the bag of vegetables in the kitchen, "We can watch a movie. I mostly watch sci-fi, fantasy, and horror but there are some other genres mixed in."

"Sounds good to me. Should I pick it?" Wonho asks.

You nod your head, "Go for it. You are the guest."

Wonho stands up and walks over to the shelf. He scans the DVDs until he finds one he likes. "How about this one?" He holds up your copy of Spirited Away.

"That's one of my favorites," you say smiling. You walk over to Wonho, "Here," you put your hand out and Wonho gives you the DVD. You put the DVD in the player and then you both get comfortable on the couch. You grab the remote and start the movie.

The movie ends and you realize you have tear streaks on your face. You wipe one side of your face with the back of your hand while you look over at Wonho. It looks like the movie made him cry too.

He looks over at you, making eye contact. You both start laughing seeing each other's tear-streaked faces.

"I don't know why but this movie makes me cry every time," you say, watching him wipe the tears off of his face.

"Yeah, me too," he says. After wiping his face he smiles and reaches over to you and wipes the other side of your face off, "There. No more tears."

You start to blush as he pulls his hand away, still smiling. Your cheek felt warm where Wonho had touched it. For a moment you couldn't get any words out. You clear your throat and finally manage to say, "It's already 6:30pm. Should we start dinner? I was thinking beef stir fry over rice."

Wonho perks up at this, "That sounds really good! I can go start the rice."
