"fucking finally.. some peace and quiet" chenle huffs as he merges onto the main highway after dropping off the rest of your friends being hyuck, mark and jisung

"you're so mean to them" you laugh, shutting off your phone

chenle makes a face but laughs anyway. it was already late into the night after spending the day with your friends. after persuading chenle into treating his core team out for lunch given that he had given them hell (including you) a week prior

you all had went out for lunch and decided to just hang around the neighborhood. all expenses paid by no other than chenle

much to chenle's annoyance, he only wanted to hang out with you. a date is what he likes to call it in his head but instead you just had to suggest that why not tag everyone along. but now that that's out of the way, chenle now finally has you all to himself

"because i wanted this day to be all about us but guess we had other plans" chenle breathes out, "but it's fine. now it's just us" he suddenly turns his head away from the road to look at you before he picks up your already intertwined hands and gives them a soft kiss on the back of your hand

in an instant, you feel yourself melt into the little kiss. you almost hate how easy it is for you to be like this around him but you can't help it because it really does wonders to your well being

you could say you've moved passed the whole "i'm just his assistant and he's my boss" thinking

"see? even you just wanted it to be us two" chenle teases

you roll your eyes as he drops your hands onto your lap

"either way, i spend most of my time with you at this point" you shoot back

chenle suddenly lets out a squeal like a little school girl. much to your surprise. the fuck?

"god, you flatter me. almost as if you like me too. do you have a crush on me or something?" he gushes, words spilling out of his mouth over a simple factual sentence that you do spend most of your time with him

"oh my god" you cover your face with your free hand. you're never going to get used to this

"we're taking a detour. the day isn't over yet and now we can finally have our date in peace" chenle says abruptly. turning the car back around to the heart of seoul

you just shake your head. letting him take you anywhere his heart desires

. . . ᝰ.ᐟ

it was almost midnight when he drops you home

you two just ended up by han river. sharing a big bowl of ramen noodles and some street food while you sit on the grass just looking up at the night sky

"we have work again in a few hours and you just dropped me off now?" you complain, stretching your limbs before you get out of his car

chenle watches you quietly on the driver's seat. even if he has droven you a million time at this point, he can never get used to this

just you and him

"at least you get to see me first thing in the morning" chenle cracks a joke, a playful but knowing smile on his face

you make a face before you smack his arm in retaliation

"whatever.." you huff before you turn your head to face him. there he was, just looking back at you. eyes soft, cheeks slightly flushed. in your eyes he's no longer your boss or the ceo of the company you're working at

he's so much more than you'd like to admit

before you could even do something to truly change the trajectory of your whatever you call the relationship, you shake your head

"thanks again for today boss" you smile, "i owe you one for letting our friends crash our quote on quote date"

chenle blinks for a moment after the mention of the word 'date'

date, huh?

"obviously anything for you" he shrugs, attempting to sound cool

but for whatever reason, he's a little bothered how you called today or tonight rather, a date

before you could step out of his car, he grabs your arm to stop you

"wait, hold it. we're not done here" chenle says, "you're forgetting something"

you look at him weird. was there something missing? is he going to ask you for gas money?

chenle suddenly pokes his cheek and says nothing else

what?

you look around the car for some context clues because huh?

there was a beat of silence in the car. none of you even bothered to move

chenle then clears his throat before tapping his cheek again. twice

"uhh you got something on your cheek..?" you ask, voice going up an octave because what in the fuck does he mean with poking his cheek?

"payment for today since you brought friends to our date" chenle says. voice suddenly going serious

your mouth drops open. what in the actual fuck?!

so he isn't asking for gas money or anything to the likes of that but he's asking for a kiss because of what now?

"you did say you owe me one so this is what you owe me" chenle continues, tapping his cheek repeatedly til you get the hint

another beat of silence goes by. just you and him inside his car, illuminated by the interior car lights above your head and him just animatedly tapping his cheek

"you actually can't be serious—"

"oh, but i am dead serious. so come on now, pay up madam" he taunts

you let out an irritated huff before leaning closer to him. chenle gracefully closes his eyes as he waits for your lips to touch his skin

sucking in a deep breath, you close your eyes before you hastily peck him on the cheek

never in a million years would you ever imagine yourself kissing your boss just because he asked for it

"okay done, bye" you rush to get out but chenle annoyingly locks the door

"what the hell was that? that was barely a kiss let alone a payment!" he sulks but he was also blushing at this point

because neither did he imagine himself to be like this. let alone to his own assistant

it suddenly feels hot and heavy in his usually cold car. the tension is simmering up to a boil it's actually insane

"do it again. kiss it like you mean it" he pouts, tapping his cheek again shamelessly

was he enjoying this? he probably is

without another word, you lean in and kiss him this time on his cheek. letting your lips still for a good ten seconds before pulling away

for chenle, it feels like time had slowed. he actually can't wrap his head around the fact that you are kissing his cheek as you speak. like he was on cloud nine

he feels the blood immediately rush to his face. if only he could, he would've smashed your lips together with is but he knows it's still uncharted territory and he would rather prefer that you would initiate your first ever kiss

this would do for now

chenle returns to his senses when he notices that you were already out of his car

"goodnight boss!" he hears your voice off the distance. he looks outside to see you by your apartment building's front doors, waiting for him to drive off

he clicks his tongue in annoyance that he had missed your reaction from the kiss since he was busy being on cloud nine that it didn't even register to him that you had unlocked your door and ran out

which to him, was probably the safer choice. he probably can't even look you in the eye after that

you on the other hand, you feel like you could faint any second now with how hot your face feels. did you actually just kiss chenle? like it was nothing? and you just let yourself do it despite being told so? what happened to resisting him? beats you

you patiently wait for chenle to leave your street. you couldn't bear to look at him after that little stunt so you immediately ran away before he could even process everything that happened within those few seconds

chenle's car engine purrs as it passes by. he honks and his blinker blinks thrice before speeding away to head home. when his tail lights were out of your sight, you head inside

on the way up, your phone vibrates

Aa bossman 👹: payment well received 🩵

finished watching ep 16 of twenty five twenty one last night and cried so hard i woke up my roommates

i feel like kdramas peaked between 2020 to 2022. think abt what was released in 2022. ofc there was twenty five twenty one but we also got extraordinary attorney woo, our blues, alchemy of souls, my liberation notes, weak hero 1, business proposal, reborn rich, the glory, little women, all of us are dead, juvenile justice, thirty nine, under the queens umbrella, big mouth, summer strike and narco-saints to name a few. i didnt watch but heard great things about adamas, connection, one dollar lawyer, cafe minamdang, military prosecutor doberman and green mothers club. it was also the year semantic error aired, the first bl to achieve mainstream success talk about a major moment in kdrama history. unbelievable to think we had all those amazing shows in one year

and before that in 2021 we had nevertheless (first mainstream kdrama w two sex scenes AND a lesbian love story all told thru the female gaze), beyond evil, squid game, move to heaven, vincenzo, hometown cha cha cha, d.p., taxi driver, our beloved summer, the devil judge, the red sleeve, my name, doom at your service, hellbound, yumis cells, happiness, the kings affection, lovers of the red sky and more

to set the stage for all of this in 2020 we got crash landing on you, hospital playlist, itaewon class, mr queen, its okay not to be okay, record of youth, start-up, sweet home, uncanny counter and smash hits like world of the married alongside weird stuff like school nurse files and dark edgy stories like extracurricular

all those diverse dramas in a three year span.. what a time to be alive. some of these have yet to be topped, many still live on ppls list of their fave dramas of all time

dont get me wrong there have been good shows since but that rly was a golden three year stretch
