It is a strange situation, the two of them sitting opposite each other in an awfully pink ice cream shop, decorated with tasteful flowers and swirls on all four walls. There is a white frilled tablecloth with heart designs on every square foot, and Kris regrets ordering his ice cream in a wine glass, having to look down at the stupid hearts smiling at him every time he scoops up a spoon of ice cream. Chanyeol is frantically at his dripping chocolate mint in a waffle cone, the green already staining the horrid white cloth. He shoots Kris occasional, poorly concealed glances, and a smile breaks out on his lips whenever he peeks at the blonde spooning his Rocky Road in a rather violent manner. Kris isn’t oblivious but says nothing.

It is a misleading situation, the two of them sitting opposite each other exchanging glances and secretive smiles. Chanyeol playfully steals Kris’s spoon and takes a bite of his ice cream, and Kris bites at Chanyeol’s cone as revenge. It is quite a misleading situation, because they are not enjoying an ice cream date together and Kris is not thinking of how much he wants to that smidge of green from the corner of Chanyeol’s lips. But they are, and Kris is thinking about Chanyeol’s lips. .
