a gentle light broke through the window and shone onto soobinβs paint stained face. his gorgeous features popping with streaks of yellows and reds. it brought his radiant energy to life all the more, the both of you laughing as you looked at each other. you were sure you werenβt any better off than he was, considering your own paint splattered clothes, but something about seeing him flustered made your heart pang. almost as if cupid himself had struck you with an arrow. your laughter ceased, as you cupped soobinβs jaw with your palm, thumb running over his cheek. he smiled softly as you held him, his gaze as warm as a summer's day. impulsivity had won before your nerves could talk you out of it, you crashed your lips onto his. any doubt youβd held in your heart about your feelings for soobin was quelled by the soft tug of his lips. his paint-smudged hands gently grasped the back of your neck, holding you to him tenderly while deepening the kiss. you pulled away, resting your forehead against his own. chests heaving from the lack of oxygen, you smiled. soobin looked ethereal, he always did, even in his paint covered state. his gaze was loving and gentle, and it entranced you all the more. his hands still on either side of your neck pulled you toward him, engulfing you in a hug which you happily returned. his arms were just as inviting as his lips, you felt as if you were home, love and warmth surrounding you. βiβve waited forever to do thatβ you whispered into his shoulder, hands clutching onto his paint streaked clothing as you felt him chuckle. βme too, me too.β
