“Marry me.”

She chuckles as she lightly mixes the drink in her hand. “How old are you again?” She knows the answer, but she just decided to .

He raises an eyebrow. “You’re at my birthday party. I literally just turned 20.”

She smirks and looks him over. “Oh, that’s right.” He stares at her patiently, and finally she responds with a mocking smile. “Well this noona is 24.”

He smirks. “Age does not matter to me.”

She takes a sip of her wine and responds, “Well it does to me.”

The birthday boy steps closer to her and pushes a curl of her long, black hair out of her eyes.

“Love has no age.” She couldn’t help but be surprised by his bold actions.

“Really?” she asks, getting interested. “And what love do we have?”

He stares at her for a while before putting his hands in his pocket. “You remember that promise I made you?”

She raises her eyebrow.

He smiles widely and explains more. “When we were kids. Right before you went to study abroad.” Her eyes widen in realization, and immediately she starts laughing.

“You were just a clingy kid with a big crush on me. I didn’t really think you meant it.”

The tall boy frowns slightly. “But I gave you a ring and everything. Why would I lie?”

She rolls her eyes. “The ring was made of flowers.”

The blonde haired smirks. “Yeah. Really beautiful flowers.”

She scoffs and places her drink down on the table next to her. Crossing her arms she continues with her explanation. “It broke the second you put it on my finger!”

“Not my fault you had fat fingers.”

“I’m going to strangle you.”

“I’m going to marry you.”

She stares at him for a while longer before sighing. “Sehun,” she looks straight into his eyes. “Go find someone else. Your age.”

“But I want you.”

“Yet I don’t want you.”

He scoffs. “What better person is out there that is not me?”

She smirks, staring at the man conversing across the room. “I know the perfect person.” Sehun follows her gaze and frowns noticeably.

“What does he have that I don’t?”

She turns to him with a smirk. “Well, for one. He’s a man.”

“I’m a man!” He whines.

She grins and places a hand on her hip. “Yeah. That’s why you whined, right?”

“Only real men express themselves.”

She snorts, completely aware of how unlady-like that was. “You will always be a kid to me. The same annoying, clingy, spoiled kid.”

He scowls. “I am a man! I just turned 20!”

She laughs. “Sehun, I’m not sure if you realized this, but I’m into older guys. Mature, older guys. Hot and y older guys. Guys that are responsible.”

She smirks up at him. “You are none of those things. I see you as a little brother.”

“Then I will change the way you look at me.” Her eyes widen in surprise. He looked really determined, really serious at that moment, and she didn’t know how to feel.

“I will make you fall in love with me.”
