𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐎𝐇 𝐇𝐀𝐍 𝐖𝐀𝐒, 𝐈𝐍 𝐀 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃, 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐔𝐋𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄. not the bad impulsive where her spur of the moment decisions would become a burden to others, but the good kind of impulsive where, when she missed someone, she wanted to see them and she wanted to see them now. it was quite the curse, actually, considering her family was on the other side of her beloved ocean and her boyfriend slash best friend slash partner in crime was almost always touring ( just touring tingz as lux has so eloquently put it in the stella group chat when shiloh had confided in her members about her missing her partner ) and, more often than not, those good intentioned impulsive desires were something that shiloh was forced to sit on and ignore.
but today was, thankfully, not one of those times. cyno had recently returned from the states after attending the nyc ball drop and whilst she had been a little a lot heartbroken that they wouldn’t be able to bring the new year into together like they usually did, her pride had outshone the sadness nestled in her stomach by a mile, but after ryuu and the others had landed back in seoul and he had sent her a short text before presumably immediately crashing, shiloh had been all but consumed by the desire to see him. she hadn’t seen him in months, okay ? you couldn’t blame her.
fast forward a good six hours and you would find the leader with her now chin length bob pinned off of her face as she stood in the sun drenched kitchen of cyno’s million dollar apartment at nine in the morning. wiping her hands off on ryuu’s old shirt, the tanned skinned woman would sigh gently as she moved to sit atop the counter, heterochromic eyes focused the stove top as she waited for the eggs she was cooking in order to add to the saiman she was making both herself and ryuusuke for breakfast. and sure it wasn’t going to be as good as her kupuna’s saiman but she was doing her best with what she had, okay ? jumping slightly when she heard a door open further up the hall, the brunette would begin panicking at the sound of footfalls coming closer to the kitchen and before she could even attempt to throw herself backwards behind the counter to hide herself, she was greeted by the sight of none other than mizushima ryuusuke wandering sleepily into the kitchen.
smiling gently as she watched him, shiloh would shrug and exhale loudly through her nose in defeat before she jumped down from the counter, bare feet hitting the cold tiles of the kitchen floor as she grinned at him. ❝ the one time i rely on the fact that you never wake up before ten, you have to wake up early and ruin my surprise, huh ?❞ she shakes her head, laughter bubbling past her lips. ❝ that’s such a you thing to do, as well. you’re really lucky i love you so much, you know ?❞
if there was one thing that ryuusuke absolutely hated, it would be that his shiloh intake has been severely limited over the past year. that’s not to say that he isn’t grateful for the success of his group; but from seeing his girlfriend almost every day to maybe only getting one or two phone calls a week, if they were so lucky, it left the male edgy and more impatient as usual. if he had it his way, he would have hopped on a plane to seoul much sooner just so he could see shiloh in person. but alas, prism believed idol duties were the priority over any kind of outside relationship -- even when you’ve known the person almost your entire life. work comes first, the company often dismisses him. that’s stupid as fuck, ryuu often thought.
it was three days into the new year when cyno had officially made it back to seoul, ryuu quick to text his girlfriend of his arrival as soon as he reached the group’s shared apartment. of course, it was 2 am when he had shot her the message and figuring that she was probably already asleep, ryuu knocked out rather quickly, the comfort of his mattress and pillow beating out the experience of a hotel room, any day.
with it being his day off, ryuu expected to at least sleep in past noon with how exhausted he was. but even surprising himself, ryuu found himself half awake at nine-thirty sharp thanks to the filtering scent of food filling the house. tired but curious, the vocalist pulled his heavy body out of bed allowing a cold shiver to climb up his spine as his bare feet made contact with the cold wooden floor. stifling a big yawn, ryuu finally made his way to the kitchen, the sound of the stove more than enough evidence to know that someone was cooking. but who exactly? everyone should be dead asleep right now. ryuu found out his answer when the familiar sight and voice of his girlfriend had finally hit his senses, stopping the man right in his tracks to register the great surprise.
“lilo!” ryuu managed to gawk out, his eyes widening to match the wide grin that was forming on his face. without missing a beat, the male quickly embraced his girlfriend, the feelings of longing from the long months apart from one another strongly dictating his actions. “god, i’ve missed you--...” he murmured into her shoulder, his fingers tangled within her short locks as his other arm supported her back firmly as he hugged her. snickering softly, ryuu finally pulled away after a few moments, ruffling his girlfriend’s hair while doing so. “and you’re crazy, you know that? i didn’t expect to see you until at least tonight, but you pulled a ‘me’ by visiting first thing.”
