Mingyu would never tell any of his girlfriends that he loved them. In every relationship he ever had, no matter the length of it and no matter the genuine interest he had, he would never tell a girl he loved her. But he told her.

She was just joking at first. Mingyu told her a joke and she laughed so hard she couldn't even breath and in between her tiny gasps for air, she playfully said "I fucking love you dude" and he replied. He said "I love you too," with the straightest face. He said the L-word, that he had once told her was the sole reason he hated Valentine's day. Mingyu said the L word that no one but his own mother, had ever heard him say. He took her weightless banter and turned it into a heavy confession. Kim Mingyu sucked the laughter right out of her empty lungs and lush body and when their eyes met she knew he meant it. She knew Mingyu meant it with every fibre of his being, meant it more than he knew he had the capability of meaning anything.

That is the moment he became her entire world. As soon as he painted her a galaxy, she went and made him the centre of it.
