Minji then popped up behind me, giving me a backhug and a kiss on my neck, with something in her hands. I turned around to face her and looked at the small box she had in her hand but she hid it behind her and leaned in towards me, a few inches away from my face.

"First, you have to say the magic words."

"Please?"

"Hmm.. Try again."

"Uh.. I love you?"

"Close, but it's something much more.. passionate and intense!"

"*sigh* Wanna fuck?"

"You got it!"

I rolled my eyes and gave her a kiss on her cheek before getting handed the small box. I slowly opened it and widened my eyes the moment I saw it. It was a guitar pick with our initials inside a small heart. I saw a note under it and was going to read it but she stopped me.

"I want you to read it when we're back at your place."

"Is it a love letter?"

"Something.. like that?"

"I'm very curious now."

"Just wait until we go back, I'm sure you'll survive."

I pouted at her and she giggled, interwining our hands together and happily leading the way to her desired spots.

"Here we are!"

Minji took me to a spot that had a beautiful view and she did not lie about that. There was a single bench in the middle of a clif that overlooked the pretty flower fields of the city. I gasped the moment I noticed she also prepared a picnic basket with sweets I wanted to try out for so long, but I didn't have the time nor knew from where to buy them.

"Aren't those the limited edition mint choco biscuits!? How did you find them?"

"Having connections with people my dad works with definitely has it's benefits."

"You're so unreal sometimes."

"And you love it."

"You bet I do."

I pecked her lips with a smile and sat on the bench with her to try the biscuits and... they were magical! I looked like a total idiot, but those were the most delicious biscuits I've ever had my whole life. Minji pulled out her phone and took a few pictures of me, smiling every moment she looked at me.

I noticed her rummaging inside the basket and when she finally found what she was looking for, she flashed me her sunshine smile and pulled out a mini box of pocky sticks with different flavors.

"You up for a game of pepero?"

"Are you sure you want to play the game or just kiss me?"

"Both. I just wanted a little reason to make out with you."

I snickered at her boldness and pulled out the first stick. I put it in my mouth and winked at her, taunting her with my finger. She smacked her lips and started biting on the opposite site, getting closer and closer until our noses were almost touching. She placed her hand on my neck and tilted her head, leaning more and more. I felt a light flush of blood rising up my cheeks the moment the tip of her lip touched mine. I expected her to kiss me right then, but she sticked to the rules of the game and left a small bit of pocky and clapped with her hands like a seal.
