"Wait. Go where?", you asked.
"Ah.", he responded with a weird confused face. "I have no idea."
And both of you laughed.
"I'm hungry.", he said.
"Let's eat then.", you answered.
"Great! I know a new 24-hours sushi restaurant not far from here."
"Let's go there and eat!"
And both you and Daehyun went out from your apartment and headed to the restaurant.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You and Daehyun are in the front of the restaurant now. It's a fancy sushi restaurant. Looks new like it actually is.
"Should we go in?", he asked.
"Sure."
You both went inside the restaurant, being welcomed by some friendly waiters.
A waiter helped you both to find a comfortable table. You decided to sit in front of the moving conveyor, so it'll be easier for you both to take the sushi.

"You're our first midnight guest!", an ahjussi greeted you both that have just sat on the chair. "Please enjoy our promotion for our first midnight guest: an all-you-can-eat challenge!"
"All-you-can-eat challenge?", Daehyun repeated.
"Yes, it's a challenge where you can eat as much as you want with only 20,000 won, BUT we'll only give you one hour time."
"So we can eat as much as we want in one hour?"
"Yep!"

Silence.
You and Daehyun looked at each other with naughty smirks.

"Challenge accepted.", you both said.
"OK! Now it's 01:58AM, so we'll start at 02:00AM and end at 03:00AM.", the ahjussi-that-is-most-likely-the-manager said.
"Okay.", Daehyun said comfortably.

One minute passed.
Two minutes...

The ahjussi then shouted, "START!"
And both you and Daehyun started to eat like crazy.
You both kept ordering expensive yummy sushi unstoppably that all the waiters even came and cheered for you both to eat.
The manager ahjussi was left with an absurd face.
But really, the sushi was really good.

After an hour time and the stopwatch rang, everyone cheered.
You and Daehyun have eaten like.. more than 50 plates of sushi.
But this Daehyun guy looked like he still want more. And he actually is.

"Can I have some more, ahjussi?", he asked, not caring about the ahjussi's super shocked face.
"S-sure, but this time please pay for it."
Daehyun laughed. "I will pay for this one, really."
"S-sure. What do you want now?"
"Udon, please."
"A-alright, one udon coming."
And the ahjussi vanished into the kitchen.

Not long after that, he's back with a bowl of yummy udon.
"There."
"Thank you!", Daehyun said, "I'll eat well~"
"Aish for real, if all of my customers are like you both.. I'll definitely bankrupt in my early opening days."
And both of you laughed.
"Ng.. ahjussi.", Daehyun said.
"Yes? Any other food you want to order?"
Daehyun laughed. "Ani, I just.. with honor, asking you if you can leave us alone for a while."
The ahjussi's face turned red. "A-a-ah, sure! I'm sorry about that."
And the ahjussi again vanished into the kitchen, with his hands gesturing the other waiters to leave the room and gave you both a private time too.

Finally, it's just both of you.

The understanding ahjussi even played a slow romantic ballad as the background song, making you and Daehyun automatically laugh.
After you both finished laughing, Daehyun's face turned serious.
He looked at you deeply with his charming eyes.
"you my pabo girl.", he said.
"What?"
"I challenge you to eat this udon."
"Eh?"
"It's a pepero game. With udon."
"EH?!", your face turned red.
"We have to eat it one by one, with you on the one side of the long udon and me on the other side."
You don't know how to react.
"W-what if I say no?", you asked.
"I'll be mad at you, kidnap you and take you with me.. so you won't be able to live your dream job in Japan."
Okay, that's pretty scary.
"AND!", he said, "I'll kiss you all the way home."
...That's even scarier.

You think for a while. "Fine. Challenge accepted."
He smiled happily. "Let's start now."
"But...", you said, still looking for an excuse, "If we really do it one by one, will it be too long? You only have time until 4AM, right?"
Silence. HAHA, you got him.
"Fine then, I'll eat 1/3 of them alone and you'll eat 1/3 of them alone too. And the rest 1/3 will be our pepero game."
...w-well, it's better.
"Okay!", you said, as he started to eat 1/3 of them.
Not even 5 minutes after he started eating, he lend it to you. "Your turn."
You then ate the udon with the same chopsticks as him.
But you can't help it, you're too full.

"Pabo guy I'm too full~"
"You have to eat."
"I can't."
"Then I'll make you eat."

He then grabbed a long piece of udon and put one side on your mouth, and the other side on his mouth.
"This way, the game start earlier and there are even more udon for the pepero game. HAAHHAAHAHA~", he said it exactly like an evil villain in a superhero movie.
You can't help but holding the udon on your lips, watching Daehyun's handsome face coming closer and closer to you.
You blushed like crazy. You closed your eyes, can't believe what's going on.

"Pabo girl open your eyes~", he said.
You opened your eyes and you found that he's already in his normal position.
"I left exactly half for you to eat.", he said, as you were looking down at the udon that's hanging on your mouth.
There's still half of them, meaning Daehyun didn't really get too close to you back then.

The game continued that way. Daehyun always stopped halfway.
Deep inside, you actually want his lips to get really close to your lips.

He kept eating half of them, making you uneasy.
What's the point of playing this game if it's just half of them?
No romantic scene?
This pabo guy is no fun.

He kept eating half of them and let the udon fell down hanging on your lips.
You realize that the next one is really the last piece of the udon.

But even this time, once more, Daehyun grabbed an udon and put one side on his lips.
Next, he put another side on your lips.
He kept moving forward till half of the udon,
ALMOST letting it go again,
when you grabbed his face gently and looked at him deeply.
"I'll teach you what pepero game is.", you said, as you kept moving forward to his handsome face.
He grabbed your face gently too, as both of you were moving toward each other.

You finally can feel his breath on your lips now.
You can see his face so clearly, as his face is just like 1cm in front of you.
You're not grabbing his face anymore. You want him to lead the kiss.
He, still grabbing your face gently, moved his fingers around your eyes.
He gestured for you to close your eyes.
You did. You closed it and waited.

You can feel his breath on your lips. It made your heart thump like crazy.
His breath was so deep and it's obvious that he's also nervous.
Hihi, cute.

You waited and waited with his breath still touching your lips.

He breath one more time.
Two more times.
Three more times....

When suddenly a sweet y lip landed on yours.

You can feel his tongue looking for a way to your tongue.
Wait, is he...?

You followed his game.
Your tongue finally met his tongue.

You and Daehyun are doing a french kiss.

Your tongues played inside your mouth.
It feels... good.

After some time, he let go of your face. Your blushing face.
He smiled at you, when suddenly,
You jumped to him, sit on him and kissed him passionately once again.
You played with his hair as he put his arms around your waist.
You realize that you love him. You love him, too much.

He then let go of your lip and started kissing your neck.
You can't help but moan. "A-ahh..... Daehyun-ssi.................."
As he kept kissing and your neck.

"D-dae..."
"Hm?", he finally said, still kissing your neck.
"Enough.."
He stopped, but still putting his face on your shoulder.
He then hugged you tightly and you hugged him back.
"Really, I love you.", he said. 
You smiled while letting go of his hug. Now you're looking at his handsome face as he's also looking at you.
You took a deep breath and said, "I lov---"
And he, all of a sudden, put his fingers on your lips. "Ssshh."
You blushed.
"I've told you before. You can't say it before I officially said it to you."
"But you said it just now?"
He laughed, "It's not the official one. I've told you, the official one will be so romantic and memorable."
You smiled. "I'll wait for it then."
You both laughed together, with you still sitting on him....
without realizing that the waiters and the ahjussi were peeping from the kitchen with super red faces.
When Daehyun realized that they've been peeping all this time, he laughed.
"Aish you guys, come out now."
And all of them hide like crazy.
You and Daehyun laughed even more. "Seriously, we're not mad."
And they all came out and bowed. "WE'RE SORRY!!!!!", they shouted.
You both laughed. "It's okay.", you said.
"Really??", they asked.
Daehyun nodded, "Yep. On one condition."
They're all left with their own epic confused faces.
"When we become an official couple, you have to give a special promotion for both of us."
The ahjussi laughed. "Okay! When you both become one, I'll make this sushi restaurant become a super romantic restaurant with only both of you as the guests."
You and Daehyun both bigger your eyes. "JINJJA?!"
He nodded, "But please.. don't eat like crazy..."
And all of you laughed.

Then Daehyun paid for the bill, took your hand and was going to leave the restaurant, when...
"Wait a minute!", the ahjussi ran to you both.
"Here. An ice-cream for you.", he gave you a cone of ice-cream.
You laughed. "Thank you ahjussi!"
He smiled and waved as you and Daehyun left the restaurant happily.
