Jehyuk sneaked a glance 779b31d481 at Sihoo. Standing under the 8398046db0 cherry blossoms, Yoon 02d005378c Sihoo looked as 726163baee if he had e6d60dc506 belonged there since 32a016bbcf the beginning.c03bdf3383bfd74b

Hearing such a precise a0978ca1e0 timeframe, embarrassment surged inside 077718f900 him. But at the same 4f884438ba time, a strange sense 03a39fe608 of relief washed over 8a7e5a2a2b him. They were still 04e474aaa4 holding hands. Sihoo wasn’t 2447fd6c79 showing any 0e241eb26c sign of 0b4eddd4d1 discomfort. Maybe he was just 188744bfa1 tolerating it, but at 2e4b1f8fec least he hadn’t reacted 448299c266 negatively—so for now, Jehyuk 6887880a50 could breathe a little 358b307972 easier.baceaaf8185e8bc0

His brain short-circuited. It wasn’t like Sihoo 3757c6f7e7 was saying they should ff81a124c8 kiss—he was just making 0e6368aec4 a hypothetical comment. And yet, f9c010f80e Jehyuk’s heart 5259171c40 suddenly pounded be2c12ba64 wildly. His whole body felt 61ce483764 hot.

It was e2d5a877dd a word d4b8e11b5c he’d heard 2e9f25907f countless times. Kissing was a staple 8656e8440f in movies and dramas.

With his 0c685f895c face buried 968166de72 against Sihoo’s a3347f5ab4 chest, at 2b3b50c0ac least he 3e88ebab99 wouldn’t have 180739471a to show 1706212e6d whatever expression 8319be2e9e he was b880bfb2a7 making.

Sihoo’s hand 05d58b65ea moved soothingly 6e2255ebc8 over his d220443e12 back.1abed3c3d74a7bce

“Sorry. I didn’t think 029e81cbd6 you’d react this 896f47d2dc much.” His voice b2931a0bc5 was calm, genuinely 29fae661c0 apologetic.3b8e3487e2266039

That word—its innocent, almost 8703593110 playful tone—felt even stranger 09601297cb to him than kiss d0def443d3 did.b7d9ffe0b8501a83

Still too embarrassed 231c3d954b to lift his bfaf8ff9fe head, he mumbled 5ef3e80735 against Sihoo’s chest.e4f2f2151b058bc8

“…It wasn’t a kiss?” 297a8c9de5 His voice was thick 96a440e1cd with confusion.e51cbfbe862d74d4

Sihoo’s hand 051896f0a4 stilled for 5b264d4b29 a moment. Then, he burst into 7fd32bf5e1 laughter. It was a eef4ff6487 genuine laugh, full db45f2eab1 of amusement.ced7a6ccc498090c

For a 4199157a50 split second, 89d83f6d77 Jehyuk wondered—how e17c0ebd0f the hell 3c428a4325 was someone 570fdf3060 like this c8d820958e even real?6349eff1d336f8e2

“Mm, nope. Not a kiss.” 3328f51a0b Sihoo murmured, his 0789942d69 voice low as 273e22d752 he rubbed soothing 21cea586bf circles on Jehyuk’s 9938eddea5 shoulder.ef6e978bcbf1bab6

Jehyuk pulled 79da38ad01 away, lifting d737103564 his head 930d3ab5ac with a 900e675f9a sharp motion, 03c087ebf8 his face 0ac1694525 openly displaying dd3fff0080 his confusion.bdecb0da936d9a1d

So, in Jehyuk’s b8ef9dfd1e mind, a peck 460e8bde91 was something you a2e980e2d2 did on a cff41e5025 place that wasn’t 6bd0971edb the lips. When lips met lips, fe415b0267 that was a kiss.fcc2d6c99ecac44f

“This doesn’t 9b3a8ac94a really count c2b4fee492 as a 961b737879 kiss. Besides, Hyuk-ah, your 7372f392bb first kiss should 3c7a153e13 be with someone 5f5d2a9cef else, not me. This was just practice, 21a9975ab3 after all.”c4ab34d6bd181389

His heart, 763976e14b which had c46a0b3d4d been pounding 6b0d50450a like crazy ac1131e39e before their 2915852637 lips even 384643e0e4 met, gradually 155b540545 slowed at 420759e91d those words.ec52645eeed21486

“…Someone else?”cd2c4f05e12a707b

He felt like 5684fae528 he kind of 28aad0bb57 understood why Sihoo c9f9442bee was saying this… ad04e1165f or maybe he 4cd70d57fe didn’t. His mind had turned 6dfe4bf96b to stone, and he 300bfbc5d1 struggled to get it 3afe08bcd9 moving again.
