chapter 25: our date

Rays of sunlight shine through the gaps between the curtains in the window, and the sound of birds happily chirping their merry morning songs, morning had never been this lovely before. I looked up at the guy who I'm sharing the bed with last night. My head is on his beautiful chest, pillowed by his left bicep, as my left arm is wrapped around his wonderful body. He laid his head on the top of my head with his right hand on the back of my waist, I feel so safe. Thankfully today's Saturday so we can snuggle as long as we can. I continued to stare at his handsome sleeping face. The way his mouth is slightly opened and the mole under his left eye is so attractive to me.

This is very nice, I don't want this to end. To think that all this time Aiden also had a crush on me, even earlier than me, I could have achieved this happiness two years ago without all the misery. But the past is the past, what matters now is Aiden is now mine, my boyfriend.

His attractive high bridge-end nose allured me to touch it. I used my left hand to 'bob' his nose center, which woke him up. His body twitched a little after that touch and he slowly opened his phoenix eyes. He looks at the window that is facing him before looking down at me who's already staring at him with my left hand covering my mouth. The moment he saw me, his freshly awake and tired face changed to a warm smile. I can't get enough of the way his eyes become smaller every time he smiles and the way his right cheek shows a slight dimple. I couldn't hold the urge anymore and pinched his cheek.

"Ah! That hurts..." He complained with a smirk on his face.

"How can I resist? You're so cute."

"You should... You're cute and I have more urges to hold."

"Okay since I failed to hold my urge, you can release one of yours to me." He looked at me with a surprised expression before changing it back into a smirk.

"Close your eyes." He instructed.

"You're so predictable, you're going to kiss me right? No, don't do it. Morning kisses are not as romantic as what you watch or read. Like you're willing to kiss my stink-breathed mouth?"

"Why not?! We're already a couple! We kissed last night!" I quickly covered his mouth with my hands as he was being so loud.

"Aiden! You're so loud! Mom and Dad are at home!"

My hand stayed on his mouth for a few seconds. Until I realized his big surprised eyes were now closed. Even though his lower face is covered, I can see that his expression is in pleasure just judging from his closed eyes. His jaws are moving, I can feel something blunt and wet tickling my left hand. I quickly removed my hand from his mouth and it was all wet. Aiden still closed his eyes with his tongue still sticking out but with a slight smile. He opened his right eye to check on me before smiling hugely with his smiling eyes at me.

"You're so disgusting Aiden! What the fuck are you-" I failed to finish my sentence, this time it was my mouth being covered. However, not by his hands, but by something soft and warm. I was enjoying it, and without me knowing it, I was already closing my eyes and moving my lips as he did. Whenever Aiden and I kissed, it was always passionate. When his lips were pressing mine, it was like something he had thought of, as if he had wanted it, like I do too. I savored the moment pretty long, trying to appreciate every single aspect, from the texture, the scent, and the distance between us that is not even a millimeter away, I need to appreciate them all. The way our kiss has to stop is to reposition our lips into the right position and angle so that this kiss will be more delectable.

"Where are you guys going?" My mom asked.

"We're going to spend some time together today mom, it's been very long since the last time we both had fun together," Aiden replied.

Aiden and I decided to start our relationship with a date, our first date, my first date with my first boyfriend. Aiden wore an oversized brown shirt with slightly oversized light-colored cargo pants. His freshly permed hair added more attractiveness. Meanwhile, I wore a white tee with brown colored flannel. I purposely wore brown so that we would match in colour and people would know that the guy who is walking beside me is my boyfriend.

(Aiden POV)

Has love ever been this exciting? The way I was singing in my shower when Han suggested a date together. I don't have anything extraordinary to wear but I want to look good for Han. For the first time in a very long time, I used sunscreen and lip balm. I want to look good for my boyfriend, I don't want people to think that I'm not worth it for him, and I don't want people to think that he deserves someone better than me. I want people who hit on Han when they saw me, they immediately know that they are not even close to Han's standard.

"You wanna hit the cafe first?" I suggested.

"Americano sounds good."

"I have been meaning to tell you this, Americano is disgusting"

"What the- what was the reason?!"

"It's just so bitter and only a little taste of sweetness. I don't see the hype"

"You drank a pumpkin spice latte, don't get me started. You don't have the right to judge me with that choice of drink."

"It's good Han!"

"Nah, I'm convinced you guys drink it only to look aesthetic." He said with his head shaking in 'no'. I left a chuckle with a continuous smile at him. I stared at him with my teeth showing while walking to the cafe.

I sat on an empty table while Han stood in line to order. The cafe has two counters, each counter has people lining up to order. While sitting, I didn't even try to look away from my precious boyfriend. He looks so adorable with him nervously swinging left and right while standing. The way he pouts because of how long the line is. It was cute and I was enjoying it, until I realized the amount of stare the guy next to him gave him. He constantly looks at Han while smiling, the only time he stops is when his line moves forward, but he proceeds back to look at Han with his annoying smile.

I just stared at him, wondering how brave he is and how naive Han will be. The guy hesitantly takes out his phone from his pocket and pretends to play with it while constantly stealing glares at Han. After a few seconds, the guy finally made a move, he talked to Han.

Han agreed to interact with him. They sometimes laugh and they look so entertained with each other. The guy suddenly gets even bolder, he starts to check on Han's flannel by holding his shoulder, pretending to try to find its brand. I can still tolerate that until he takes it to another whole level when he picks up a strain of fallen hair on Han's nose and takes that opportunity to pinch his nose. I quickly get off my seat and walk straight to them. I don't care if my table is going to be stolen, I would rather lose my table than lose Han. After two years of waiting, silently in jealousy, all my hard work, I won't let him go or anyone take him away from me so easily.

"Hey babe... Is the line still long?" I asked with my hand placed on his shoulder. I lowered my head to his head level, trying to look romantic. This boy is my boyfriend, I feel like shouting that out loud so the whole world knows and keeps their distance.

"Yeah... Hey, what are you doing? Someone is going to steal our table Aiden. Go sit." He told me. I shake my head, suggesting that I refuse to.

"I'm bored of just sitting without you close to me... anyways, who is this dude?" I turned my head from Han to him. My smile quickly changes to an emotionless face to show him not to try anything stupid.

"Ah, he's just kind enough to talk with me in this line," Han answered. I can sense the guy was surprised and disappointed to know that Han is not single judging from his conversation from a happy smile with his teeth shown to a closed and weak smile. Gotchu boy.

"Go return to our table while it's still open," Han instructed me. I returned my head and smiled at Han.

"How about I'm the one who's waiting in the line now? You must be tired of standing, let me replace you okay?" I said and gave him a small peck on his cheek before pushing him slightly out of the line. Han didn't even question me and just sat at the table.

I turned my head to see the guy again and he was staring at Han walking with a fading smile. I put down my smile and gave him sharp eyes.

"Isn't it obvious now? So don't even think to try. He likes me, and I dare to kill someone if they tried to sleep with him."

The guy looks at me with his eyes widened speechless. He just nodded to me and repositioned his body to face the counter. During the whole waiting, he was quiet. After the cashier gave him his receipt, he quickly left the line. I just look at him with chuckles.

I brought our drinks to the table for Han. I didn't put the drinks down on the table first before sitting, instead, I still held them while sitting. The confused expression on Han's face makes me smirk about the act that I am about to pull. I place Han's drink under my lips, still smirking at him. The confused look eventually changes to a surprise look. He mouthed the word 'no' with his head shaking.

Iced Americano... the smooth taste with a slightly bitter undertone. The ice on top provides a refreshing and chill in this warm temperature. I licked the straw a little when it was still inside my mouth so that we could indirectly kiss, again.

"Here's your Americano, Han." I smiled

Han slowly takes his drink from my hand. As he drags it closer to him, he slowly lowers his head, while one of the corners of his mouth slowly raises. The drink eventually flies off the table with the help of his hand and continues to fly until it arrives at his slightly pink, plump, delicious lips. He slowly put the straw inside his mouth while still maintaining eye contact with me. He didn't fully close his mouth, he left it slightly open so that I could see the tip of his tongue playing with the straw's top.

"Americano has never been this good." This boy... Always find a way to make me want him even more, make me desire to fill his inside. I move my head closer to his ears and whisper,

"You're so bold for being naughty in the public, Han." I was expecting a face with red cheeks and ears, but he teased me even more by licking both of his lips corners. I can feel that my lust starts to rise, my penis starts to rise quickly. I immediately stop teasing him and take a sip of my drink to brush my dirty thoughts away.

"It has been so long since the last time I went to the amusement park! So many new rides..." Han said. I look to my left, and the view of him smiling while looking around like a lost kid adores me. I grabbed his hand and we locked fingers. Han was at first surprised but then it changed to a warm smile.

We rode many rides and played many games. From the roller coaster to the arcade games, Han seems like he's enjoying it so much. After we finished with a ride, Han grabbed my hand and dragged me to another ride. It's exhausting but I love the way he dragged me by my hand and was in front of me. The way he sometimes looks back to check on me with a huge, excited smile on his face. He looks so happy. His smile looks so comforting. His laugh is so lovely yet contagious. I love him so bad.

After who knows how many games and rides, we ended our fun with the ferris wheel. We purposely leave it for the last because we want to ride it at night when its light is turned on. In the cabin, Han looks so amazed by the view, he constantly taking pictures of the scenery. I also didn't miss this opportunity to take pictures of this beautiful, magnificent, and adorable view. Instead of the scenery, I took pictures of him. He looks so excited while appreciating the views from the top, repeatedly complimenting how lively the road is.

Even without him noticing it, he still looks amazing in the picture. His sharp jawline and high bridged nose, his cute black mole on his neck that I'm craving for. His dilated boba eyes because of the excitement. I continued to take pictures of him until he turned his head to me. His happy expression quickly drops into surprise.

"Are you taking pictures of me?" He asked. I put down my phone and just nodded at him while reviewing the pictures.

"You're so hypnotizing than this scenery." I turned my head to look at the outside before turning it back to Han.

"I love you, Han... Don't ever leave me..."

Han froze for a second but then let out a big smile. His eyes become smaller as he pulls his smile upwards . The only thing you can see in his eyes area is his pocket of fat under both of his eyes.

"I love you too... Aiden" For obvious reasons, my eyes are open slightly wider, my eyebrows raise. When I realized what he just said, I quickly went to him to wrap his body with my arms and my head on his right shoulder. I can feel warm droplets fall to my cheeks, my nose keeps pulling the snot back inside.

"Don't worry, this is happiness," I said so that he didn't get the opposite concept of these tears. After saying that, Han's body eased up more than before and tapped my back. We stayed in that position until we reached the bottom. Han's no longer mesmerizing the view, he also put his head on my shoulder and gave me a peck on the right cheek. I'm so scared of losing Han, I'm scared that he just dates me because he just wants to have fun although he's the one who confesses first. I hope he's not because I'm going to turn crazy if he did, and I wouldn't let that happen before I get a taste of his body.
