Ever since you were kids, the deal was to stay best friends with each other till death do you apart. that deal stayed strong to this very day.
But of course there had to be a certain growing up issue making itself an awkward obstacle in your long time friendship with Seonghwa.
A boyfriend-girlfriend issue.
No, it wasn't like that. It was more of a... intimate boyfriend-girlfriend issue.
"But, like, where does my tongue go?" Asked Seonghwa, who clearly didn't grasp the concept of making out like every other hormonal boy.
"Do you really think I'm the right person for you to ask that?" And clearly, you weren't the one who could grasp that concept either.
And here the two of you are, sitting kitchen with biology papers scattered on the counter discussing something completely irrelevant to the theory of evolution.
"Well, I don't know? It would be weird asking other people, don't you think?"
Ever since Seonghwa dragged you to some random party the two of you stumbled upon one of your late night ventures, he was slightly overwhelmed by countless bodies stuck onto each other in every corner of every room. And even more overwhelmed when a drunken dyed-blondie got a bit too close to his lips.
He never thought he'd snatch up such a beauty without doing anything, hence, why he panicked when she played with his plump lips with her finger. It was like staring at a deer in headlights. thankfully, you had dragged him away before you could witness absolute embarrassment.
"Honestly, just try it on a peach." The idea of transmitting fluids from the mouth was disgusting to you, but that didn't stop you from helping out your best friend. A peach was the most common method according to youtube, that is.
"A peach?" Seonghwa grossed, you really couldn't hold in a giggle every time he pulled that disgusted look of his.
"Better than nothing, Hwa." you reached over his shoulder, grabbing a peach you had bought in the morning out of the fruit bowl before sitting back in your stool.
"I'm not going to make out with a peach." Seonghwa groaned, shooting you a 'really?' expression.
"Okay then, what do you want me to do?" you crossed your arms, sighing in annoyance as Seonghwa smirked.
It was only the fifth idea Seonghwa had shot down since he's been here. The cherry knot idea was the best one you had introduced in the duration of your discussion, but of course Park Seonghwa had to disagree again.
"Nothing, literally nothing. Let's just do this stuff and watch a coming-of-age movie or something, okay?" By now, you had given up and just agreed with Seonghwa. Nothing would work if you had forced it upon him anyway.
"Okay, okay, Mr. late-bloomer-mphh." A sudden soft pressure against your lips had caught you off guard when you leaned over seonghwa to place the peach back in its place.
Your eyes bulged the moment you realise what was going on. It took you a solid three seconds to realise this was real life too.
But, it felt enlightening, like never before. The soft, plump, delicate pair of lips were on yours. Seonghwa's eyes were closed, probably to diminish his sense of embarrassment, but what about yours? Should you close your eyes too?
Oh.
Who knew being blind while locking lips with someone else could be so endearing. You always thought people were being dramatic. Guess you were wrong.
You didn't even realise the peach had fallen out of your hands until you felt a slight movement on your lips. Seonghwa had tilted his face slightly for a better grip on your lips, making you move so naturally smooth against him.
The short moment seemed to last like it was forever.
Air quickly filled the space between you once again as seonghwa slowly pulled away, a crimson flush instantly creeping up his face.
"Oh my god, I shouldn't have done that- I am so sorry-" Seonghwa panicked, grasping his head with both his hands before bulging his eyes.
"-No, no! It's okay, really. I um, I just didn't expect that so... suddenly." You could feel your face burning intensely as the two of you stood awkwardly in your kitchen, rubbing the back of your heads with great embarrassment.
"But... um, did you... like it?" Seonghwa raised a brow, a concerning look washing over his face as he sat back down.
"Yeah... I did actually. It wasn't that bad," it was definitely not how you expected your first kiss to turn out and you definitely don't think how it would turn out for seonghwa either.
"did you like it?" Seonghwa giggled, perking a smile as you looked away flustered.
"more than you think."
