Chilling at Burger king...?

                “You eat really slowly,” Gin commented. He was almost finished his burger.

                “No,” I coughed, “you’re just extremely fast.”

                “My mom always says that…” Gin sighed, “she always used to tell me that if I eat too fast, I’m going to be overweight. Of course I didn’t believe her. It doesn’t matter, it never happened anyway.”

                “It’s true though,” I smiled after taking a small bite, “if you eat fast you never feel full so you keep eating and eating.”

                “I always eat more than I should…even if I eat slowly,” he grinned as he finished his burger and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

                “That was quick,” I said softly as Gin started to eat his fries.

                “So…Hyori,” Gin whined, “I’m bored. Do something.”

                “Like what?” I pondered.

                “Let’s play a game!” he announced, “here are the rules.”

                “You love games don’t you?” I sighed, “Fine, okay, I’ll play.”

                “This is one of my favorite games-

                “What isn’t?” I grumbled.

                “It’s called, name the song!” Gin shouted and paused for dramatic effect.

                “Hah?” I raised my eyebrows.

                “One person sings a lyric of a song and the other person guessing, which song the other one is singing. Whoever guesses right more can get one wish from the other person,” Gin explained, “fair?”

                I thought about it for a moment. I was not that familiar to songs, but Bom was into music so she was always singing random lyrics to me. Besides, the idea of making Gin do whatever I want him to do sounds hilarious.

                “Fair,” I grinned.

                “Great,” he dropped his fry back onto the tray, “I’ll go first.” He paused and thought for a moment before saying something like.

                “Doesn’t matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M. Just put your paws up, cause you were born this way, baby.” He recited, “that’s an easy one, come on.”

                “…I don’t,” he gestured me to go on, “um…”

                “Only one chance,” he told me.

                “What?” I groaned, “okay…give me a hint will you?”

                “Come on, Hyori,” he snorted, “the answers in the lyrics.”

                That gave me an idea, “born this way?”

                “Yes,” he seemed exasperated and told me to go on.”

                “Um…hey, hey, you, you, I don’t like your girlfriend?” I muttered.

                “Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne!” he shouted, “next time do something les obvious.”

                “Okay…” he said, “when you smile the whole world stops and stares for a while.”

                I willed myself from saying, ‘aww,’ and thought about it for a moment and said, “just the way you are.”

                He smiled.

                “Let’s see… you make me feel like I’m living a-

                “Teenage dream,” Gin ended me off, “you have to try harder then that to beat me. I’m a master at this game.

                “Because…you made it up?” I pointed out.

                He ignored me and said, “you know you love me. I know you care. So shout whenever, and-

                “I’ll be there,” I snorted, “Baby by Justin bieber, obviously.”

                “Ironic you know that one,” Gin teased me.

                “My turn,” I growled. I searched in my head for some random music line. The song that Bom recently introduced to me popped in my head. I smiled darkly. This one was going to be hard. Bom had a knack of finding the weirdest and oldest music no one ever listens to.

                “Still I remember you, waving your hands till the end. And hear your last words that the moments we shared would never fade away,” I recited from my memory and smiled a victorious smile.

                Gin looked stumped.

                “You sure you didn’t make that up?” Gin grunted after a long moment.

                “Do you think I can make that up in a second?” I grinned.

                “Uh…Never fade away?” he guessed.

                “Nope.”

                “Till the end?”

                “Uh- no.”

                “How about…Your last words?”

                I shook my head and smiled even wider, “guess I win.”

                “Darn it,” he sighed, “what was the answer?”

                “Never ending story,” I laughed, “and I have Bom to thank for telling me this song.”

                “Bom told you?” Gin sounded exasperated, “obviously I didn’t know. She listens to the weirdest songs.”

                “I like them though,” I defended, “better than your choice of songs. Justin Bieber…really?”

                “Hey, I was…” he dropped his head, “I have no excuse.”

                “So…with my wish,” I sounded excited and Gin horrified.

                “Don’t make me do anything stupid,” he begged me, “you know the last time I had to ask that women out? God, that was embarrassing.”

                “I have a better idea,” I smiled evilly.
