Birthday Surprise

Birthday Surprises

It had been a long morning for Wooyoung, and all he wanted was to be next to you. It was his birthday after all, you're supposed to spend those with people you care about. That is, if you know where said people are, and Wooyoung had no clue where you went. He searched his house with no hint of anyone other then him being there today. You weren't answering his calls either. His next stop was your apartment. That was where he found that you weren't present there, but your phone was. That explained why you weren't answering it, but where were you? He takes a hold of your phone and sees a reminder labeled 'Remind Wooyoung that he now has to find his birthday present'. The wallpaper you had set also captured his attention. Your second official date, you two had gone to a small, local bakery that wasn't far from your apartment.

As he stands outside the doors, he's reminded of the day.

"Wooyoung! you've got to try this, it's so good!" she exclaims with a grin, frosting smeared on the corner of her mouth. Without a second thought, he wipes it away with his thumb and that alone makes her blush. But then he kicks the frosting from his thumb, and she stops talking, just staring ahead at him with a slightly open mouth.
"What?" he asks innocently, reaching across the table to take a small slice of your dessert. His face lights up as the flavors melt on his tongue all while she's still shocked. "That is good."

"you- i-.. y-yeah it is." she finally stutters out.

It wasn't until the next day that Wooyoung understood what happened at the bakery, and why she had been so flustered.

He steps inside with a small smile. The cashier greets him kindly, asking if he was here to pick up an order. Wooyoung shakes his head, unaware of the order under your name that sat waiting for him. He ends up placing an order for your favorite dessert to give to you once he finds you. The cashier goes to call his name and is reminded of the order waiting for a man with his name to be picked up.

Wooyoung takes his order, and is given the one you had placed. Had he not recognized the handwriting on the box, he wouldn't have taken it with him.
On the box was written,'Remember our first walk in the park?'

The two of them had been on a nice park trail, lined with flowers getting ready to bloom. A perfectly clear, blue sky sat over their heads as they talked. Both of them shared stories from their childhoods with smiles and laughter. The walk was coming to a nice end when they heard small yaps from behind them. Upon looking back, they saw a beautiful coppery red doberman puppy stumbling along after them. She looks at Wooyoung with the biggest eyes and pout that would give a toddler a run for their money, begging him to let her take the pup with them.

He gives in not long after and the two bring him home. They attempt a bath, but it ended in a bubble throwing war with the puppy trying to bite at any of the stray bubbles floating in the air. They had gone to bed that night smelling like honey with a pup on the pillow between them.

Wooyoung arrives at the shelter the two of you had dropped Cinnamon, as you had called him, off at the morning after you found him.

It appears Cinnamon remembers him, because as Wooyoung approached, his tail started wagging in circles and he tipped happily. Wooyoung greets the, now slightly larger, puppy with a grin.
By the end of his hour visit, Wooyoung is heading back to his car with a five month old dog following behind him with the next hint you left in hand.

"a convenience store should have dog treats right? check the one near my apartment." the hint read.
"What kind of a hint is that-?" he mumbles to himself as he turns his car on.
