soulmate | lee minhyuk [COMPLETED]

snowstorm

"got all this time on my hands
might as well cancel our plans, yeah
i could stay here for a lifetime."—ariana grande w/ justin bieber, stuck with u

it was the first night i stayed in his apartment. way before i moved in. we were a new couple, just a few months after our first kiss.

i couldn't go back to my dorm that night because of a snowstorm. my dad didn't like the idea of his daughter staying a night with a boy, but my mom absolutely adored minhyuk. she said she had a good feeling about him ever since i told her i was crushing on him.

i was nervous, because i'd heard all the stories my roommate told her friends over the phone. all the boys she had been with and what happened to them every single time she stayed in.

before i could mention anything, minhyuk walked in with a cup of tea, a thick blanket, and a hair tie. he said his mom left it the last time she came over, and he didn't know if i'd need it because he'd never had another girl over besides his mother.

that was the moment i realized that he wasn't like the boys my roommate talked about. minhyuk wasn't like that at all. that night, we ate instant ramen and he told me a story about how he loved whales, and he had a giant stuffed whale at home that waiting for him to give it a "bath"... the bath he referred to was vacuum cleaning.

he insisted that i slept on his bed. he said he was going to be on the couch. he even told me to lock the bedroom door if i didn't feel safe around him yet.

i asked him over and over to sleep in the room with me. he agreed but said he'd sleep on the floor. i couldn't push him farther.

he respected my boundaries. he did what he knew my father would want and what he thought would be appropriate.

my dad grew to love him after hearing about it. he said he was mature. he said, "that's a real man."
