Seventeen Imagines

순영 - 춤/커피

Even with the slightly chilly air, the sun was shining very brightly so you decided to go take a stroll at the park. Slipping into your favorite sweater and mid-length skirt, you grabbed a sticky note and wrote a short note to your brother in case he's gonna be home before you. Sticking the note to the fridge, you put on your comfortable boots and went out, not forgetting to lock the door for safety measurements.

〈 The outfit 〉

You stopped by a cafe to buy a drink before going to the park. It's such a shame that even though the weather is great, only a few people were in the park.

Looks like people would rather stay indoors nowadays. You thought.

You sat on the swing, lazily swinging back and forth, sipping on your drink while your mind wanders around. You were so engrossed in your thoughts that you were surprised that when you sipped on your drink you find out that it's empty. Shrugging, you stood up and went to find a trash bin. Turns out, the trash bin was a bit far from you, located near the fortress-like part of the park, where you vaguely remembered having a small gazebo. You were on your way back to the swing set when you heard a faint piano music playing. Curious, but also cautious, you slowly let the music guide you to its source. Soon enough you were at the gazebo, when you see a man dancing to the piano music playing, his back facing you. You were so captivated by the way his body moves are with flow with the music coming from his phone, that you couldn't help but clap when he finished the dance. He jumped, startled by the claps and turned around, facing you. You smiled sheepishly and slightly bowed.

"Ah, I'm sorry for startling you," you apologized, "It's just that, you're so great in dancing! The way you move is very symmetrical with the music and it really makes me enjoy the performance."

The guy blushed at the burst of compliments from you. He scratched his nape, a foolish smile on his lips.

"Well, dancing has always been my passion, and I really like moving my body to the rhythm of almost everything."

You smiled "I'm Jihyun. Hong Jihyun."

"Soonyoung. Kwon Soonyoung. Nice to meet you, and, thank you for appreciating my dance." He finished his sentence with an adorable eye smile you couldn't help but inwardly melt. Before you can control yourself, you cupped both of his cheeks and softly pinched them. Both startled by your actions, you immediately let go of his cheeks and bowed repeatedly.

"I'm really sorry! It's just that earlier while dancing you had this fierce but calm aura then you smiled with your fluffy cheeks and–"

You were cut off by his laughter. You stared at him, confused as to why he is laughing. After his laughter died out, he stared at you and smiled like earlier, and you fought the urge to pinch his cheeks again.

"It's alright. It's not everyday I have someone pinch my cheeks, especially a cute girl like you." He winked playfully and it was your turn to blush.

"Do you want to go for a coffee? I know a good cafe nearby." He offered, looking anywhere but you.

You cursed yourself for already having your dose of caffeine for the day. Because of medical reasons, you can only drink one serving of coffee a day. But at the same time, you also want to spend time with Soonyoung. Unbeknownst to him, you already know who he is. A popular guy in school who is known for his good looks, dancing skills and funny personality. If you had to admit it, you actually have a small crush on him, not because of his popularity but because you saw how genuine his bright personality is, especially if he's with his friends.

"About that..." you started, "I really want to, but I already had my coffee earlier and for some reason, I can only drink one coffee a day."

Soonyoung was visibly saddened by the fact. He wanted to spend time with you. Sensing his gloomy aura, you suggested, "Maybe you can walk me home? If you want to, that is..."

He grinned, stuffing his phone in his pocket and holding your hand, he slightly dragged you out of the park.

The both of you talked about almost anything, things about yourself and the likes. Soon enough you reached your house and because you're standing in front with your back facing him, you didn't catch the confusing look on his face.

"Jihyun-ah, this is your house?"

You hummed in agreement, knocking on the door, knowing that your brother's home from the lights in the living room.

"Jihyun-ah, what's your surname again?" He asked.

"She's a Hong." A male voice answered and the both of you turned to see your older brother standing at the doorway.

"Jisoo oppa, you're home early today." You addressed your brother.

"They had a trainee and told me he'd take my shift." Jisoo smiled at the both of them "Soonyoung-ah, what brings you here?" He asked

"Jihyun found me while I was dancing at the gazebo and I offered to walk her home."

"Oh, okay then. I'll leave you two alone." Jisoo turned his back and walked to the kitchen. But before he can be out of sight he turned to the two

"I'm gonna make a good guess that you'll be coming here often, Soonyoung."

Both blushing by his words, Soonyoung first broke the silent atmosphere

"So, since you couldn't take a coffee now, can I take you to the cafe tomorrow?" He asked

You grinned, nodding your head "We can meet at the park at 10?"

"No can do Ms. Hong. Soonyoung needs to pick you up here at home. That's the true way of a gentleman." Jisoo shouted from the kitchen.

You blushed a bright red while Soonyoung laughed.

"Jisoo hyung is right. Be ready by 10 okay? I'll see you tomorrow!" He pressed his lips on your cheek before waving and jogging away.

With a hand on your cheek, you can only think of one thing.

I can't wait for tomorrow.
