Nighttime
The Luckiest Day of My LifeAll the rest of the members and Yoogeun were asleep except me and Jjong. We were just hanging out talking. I sat with my back to the wall as he lay with his feet up against the wall near my head. I studied his features as he chatted away about something, I don't really remember what. There was a long pause, a comfortable silence. Suddenly I felt like I had to ask him about that thing he said, you know, about meeting me being the luckiest day of his life. So I said, "Hyung, remember that interview when they asked you what the luckiest day of your life was meeting me?" I said, my voice wobbling with anxiety towards the end of the sentence. He smiled reminiscently.
"Yeah I remember that, what about it?" he asked me, sitting up, his gorgeous chocolate brown eyes sparkling.
"Well, ok, did you say that because we're best friends or..." I said, my voice failed me before. Shock and then happiness flitted across his face. Then he smirked.
"Or what?" He said, leaning closer to me and looking right in my eyes. I swallowed and felt my face heat up.
"W-well," I stuttered, I looked down and then looked up, meeting his steady heart-pounding gaze, "Or because you love me back." I realized the weight of what I had just said in that moment, what if he didn't feel the same way? I had just confessed under the assumption that he loved me to. There was a long silence in which my mind raced, not making much sense. Then, suddenly he leaned forward and kissed me softly on the lips. My eyes flew open in surprise. But then I felt them slipping closed. I leaned into it, kissing him back. He along my cheekbone, and then around my eye, pushing my bangs back, he tangled his fingers into my hair. I, in turn tangled my fingers into his hair as we kissed. Then he pulled away a little and grinned.
"It was because, that day I met you?" he whispered, "That day was the day I fell in love for the first time." Then he kissed me again, pulling me into his lap. I clung to him and kissed back, finally totally happy for the first time in a really long time.
