Wiping your mouth with your napkin you sat back in your chair hand on your stomach.
"That, was good food"
"Yes ma'am"
Chaeyoung sighed before nodding her head in agreement,
"now I want ice cream"
You knew you were full but, the sound of ice cream was just too good, and who were you to pass up ice cream. Nodding your head Dahyun clapped excitedly, knowing you could all spend more time together. She pulled out her wallet and so did Chaeyoung, despite your protests they split the bill.
"You should have let me pay for something"
"No, we did this for you, you will not pay, and you won't pay for ice cream either."
"I will since I suggested it"
Looking back and forth between them you realized you weren't getting anywhere so you gave up with a sigh. After they got their cards back the three of you headed out of the restaurant and down the street.
Dahyun skipped down the sidewalk, her perfectly done bun, was now in loose waves running down her back as she smiled under the moon. She turned around to face you now walking backwards but not running into anything somehow.
Chaeyoung grabbed your hand and began to skip next to her with you joining with a grin.
You finally stopped in front of an ice cream shop and walked inside, the cold air hitting you making you shiver. You licked your lips at the sight of ice cream and walked over to the cases containing them. You pointed at the vanilla smiling and Chaeyoung ordered for you and then herself. Dahyun had gotten some sort of mixture with a bunch of toppings that you had no clue what the name was.
"What even is that?"
"My question exactly"
"It's birthday cake blast, cake batter ice cream, sprinkles, chocolate-"
"okay we get it"
Chaeyoung laughed and grabbed your cone of ice cream for you and her own.
The three of you sat at a table outside enjoying the new spring air. You enjoyed your ice cream trying to push the memory of you, Changbin, and May to the back of your mind. You didn't want to throw a pity party on your girls night, but it was the same ice cream place. Shaking your thoughts away you laughed at the stupid joke Dahyun just made.
~~~
Walking past a clothing store Chaeyoung dragged Dahyun away from the cute sweater in the window.
"no"
"JUST LET ME BE HAPPY"
Chaeyoung looked to you for assistance but you shrugged still eating your ice cream. She huffed and gripped her waist tighter pulling her past.
"I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME"
This continued until they finally stopped in front of a plushie store that made Chaeyoung smile and giggle like a little girl.
"YES!"
Throwing away the now soggy cone you walked in the store behind them. They were already each holding giant arms full of plush animals and you laughed.
"How, how have you already-"
"Shh, don't question the process"
Laughing you shook your head at them before walking over to a wall of large bears.
"Hey Y/N"
"Oh hey Kevin"
You smiled at the familiar face and then eyed the cat holding a heart plush in his hand.
"Is that for someone?"
He blushed and rubbed his neck awkwardly.
"y-yeah, it's for H-Hwall"
He looked down at his feet blushing and you giggled shaking him by the shoulders.
"I freaking knew it!"
You didn't want to ask, not wanting to make things awkward but you could tell right from the beginning that there was something going on between them.
"He's gonna love it"
"You think so?"
"I know so, besides it's from you, he'll like it no matter what"
He grinned confidently at your statement, seemingly feeling better about himself.
"HI KEVIN!"
You turned and looked at Dahyun who tried to wave with the big mound of plushies in her arms, looking more like a T rex. Chaeyoung had settled down and was now only holding a cute unicorn.
"Dahyun we can't buy them all"
"WHY-NOT"
"Because you already have too many at home, and there is no way we can afford all of these"
Huffing she had a stare down with the younger before finally giving in and placing them all down except for a small kitty.
"There you go"
Chaeyoung patted her shoulder and Dahyun stuck her tongue out teasingly at her. You laughed at the two of them before grabbing a cute little panda off the shelf behind you.
"ooouuu Hwall?"
Dahyun pointed at the plush in Kevin's arms and wiggled her eyebrows and winked.
He blushed and nodded shyly and she let out a fangirl noise you didn't even know was possible.
"THEY'RE SAILING"
"ALL ABOARD"
Kevin blushed hiding his face in his hands but still smiling. You ruffled his hair grinning and handed your plush to Dahyun since she said she would pay, again.
~~~
Kevin had offered to walk you home since Dahyun's mom had called and wanted her home. She lived close to Chaeyoung so she offered to drive her.
"So are you guys together?"
"oh-uh, no, n-not yet"
"YET!!"
You shook his arm excitedly and he blushed again.
"well I hope so"
"OH MY GOSH KEVIASSLAKShAAA"
"How did you even do that?"
Laughing you hit his shoulder playfully making him clutch it dramatically
"Oh I'm hurt, tell, my f-family I love them"
"and Hwall"
"and Hwall"
He stopped acting and laughed but then realized his statement and looked at his feet.
"That is the cutest thing e v e r!"
You squished his cheeks smiling and then turned to see you were in front of your house.
You gave him a quick hug and walked inside bidding him goodnight.
~~~
He watched as you smiled. He clenched his fist and then looked down at his feet. Changbin sighed and looked at you again. You were all dressed up, your hair was slightly tangled but still curled and elegant, your highlight was shimmering in the street light. He looked down at the small bundle of roses in his hand and sighed. He watched as you gave Kevin a hug before walking inside.
He looked at the ground defeated and closed his eyes. He should have known. He should have known that you liked him, that you gave up on him. He should have seen the signs before. The way you always hung out with him in the library, how you would laugh at everything with him, your smile when you saw him.
He clenched his fist before dropping the roses onto the grass. He looked back up at your house sighing, he felt a tear slip passed his eye and cursed before walking away.
