"Will you just
wrap around me and kiss me?"
[ In this chapter you may use the audio above, (slide to the left!) for the scene which mentioned the title of the song. Enjoy~ ]
Huff and puff, I gasped for air as I lay my foot on the last step of stairs still hugging the snacks tight. Damn, I bet these chips are 90% air inside, so bloated that I couldn't fit more in my arms!
After a minute of trying to gain oxygen, I opened the door as it revealed the wide and tiled rooftop, displayed with the beautiful amethyst tint on the sky scattered with shimmering stars.
My eyes then fell on the view of a guy. A guy with his backside presented infront of me from afar. He had black silky hair, broad shoulders, wearing a button-up white shirt with his sleeves rolled up showing his muscular arms. I was busy admiring his existence while he was delicately arranging a table covered with a cream cloth, with two chairs facing each other and white rose petals sprinkled everywhere around it. I didn't know he was putting so much effort on this date. Thought it was just something simple but this is truly romantic. Just seeing him so passionate for this date made me fall for him more, I shouted softly, "Babe~ !!"
He turned around, his charming face instantly grew a wide smile with a small hint of dimples showing in the corners of his bottom lip. "Sunmi!" –he ran towards me with open arms while I copied his move making the snacks fell all over the place. He carried me lightly into his figure. The citrus-fresh notes with earthy undertones like musk cologne smell gave shivers down my spine. I couldn't put into words how much I need him right now.
We parted the hug but I was still held in his arms, "I miss you so much". Those five words aren't enough to describe the heartache I'm having, how his existence means a lot to me at this moment. "Hey, don't cry. I'm right here", he wiped the tear that I didn't notice escaped. "I miss you more" he whispered. "You seem tired, what happened?", he asked with a concerned look.
"I was running, I didn't want you to wait. I'm okay now! So don't worry too much. Oh, and I brought snacks! And soju!!", I picked up the snacks with the soju clinking in my purse, he helped along. "Wow, you bought all of these?" he asked while I replied "Yup! Just for you!", he giggled with his dimples showing. This man does things effortlessly yet my eyes are full of hearts for him. "Well my most precious and most beautiful lady, let's enjoy our snacks on the dining table shall we?", he bowed down with both of his arms directing towards the table with one leg crossed behind the other. I chuckled by the sudden act and head towards the edge of the rooftop.
We placed the snacks and soju on the table, "I didn't know you're making it fancy, I could've brought a steak or something", this time it was his turn to chuckle. "I don't mind, I just need you to be here with me", he said offering a chair for me to sit; what a gentleman he is.
We had few conversations whilst enjoying the chips. I only had few bites because I was too focused on him talking about his day while he munched the chips adorably. "Hey, what's your favorite number?", out of the blue he asked. "Uh.. five, why?", I replied with my head tilted a bit. "Oh nothing, just curious". He continued to babble when all of a sudden he stopped again. He looked at me confused then asked, "Why aren't you eating the chips?"
"Oh, umm I'm not that hungry...", I didn't knew he would realize that. I just gave him a shy smile. "Are you sure? Because I noticed you were staring at me the whole time.", he grinned as he fidgets with the bag of chips. I could feel my cheeks burning so I lowered my head a little. "I'm full just by watching you eat", I said slowly pushing my chips to the side still with my head bent down.
"Since you're not hungry...", he stood up grabbing something under the table and place it on top of it. A black shiny radio. He clicked on one of the buttons as it played the beautiful melody of a song that we share a deep connection with. Beautiful life by Crush.
"May I?", he extended his right hand towards me in a such delicate manner. Suprised by his movement, I gently lay my fingers on his as I slowly stood up infront of him. He held my waist with his other hand while our fingers intertwined. The gap between our bodies lessen as our hearts impersonated each other's beat.
I could see the stars reflecting in his eyes twinkled with our face just a few inches away. We swayed silently to the song. "I love your dress", he looked down than up again smiling. My cheeks started heating up again. Oh god, I swear I want this moment to last forever.
Come to think of it, we really are meant for each other. The way his fingers links perfectly with mine and our figure nicely compliment each other. It's crazy to think how the human body are meant for each other, are meant to be held by one another.
As my eyes met his, I could feel my surroundings became heaven. Everything is in slow motion. I was on cloud nine, maybe even eleven. He should be classified as the goddess of admiration as he should not belong to human kind, his angelic appearance is fixed in my mind. I just want him with me for eternity.
He paused for a while, looking directly towards my eyes. I was confused by his action, "Why did you stop–", before I could finish my sentence he placed one of his fingers on my lips. "Shh...", he whispered still not breaking eye contact. "What was your favorite number again?", he asked with one of his eyebrows raised. "Five...", I blinked a few times.
Gently he shifted his finger to cup the right side of your cheeks. He carresed it once as slowly leaned forward. "Five... four...", he leaned closer and closer as he counted. You could feel your heart hammering. "Three...", oh shit oh shit. "Two...", he tilted to side and our face was just a few centimeters away. I could feel his breath against my lips. "One–"

"Hold it right there young lady!", the door to the roof top swung open to reveal two polices and a cashier with angry looks on their faces.
