“Strawberries are soft but they have a lot of seeds.They cannot grow in environments that are too hot or too cold-
You smiled as you set your phone down. Juhoon was your boyfriend of 5 months, yet you guys have established a strong relationship. You have noticed and accepted Juhoon’s personality of trying to act like he doesn’t care about anything, becuase you know he is soft deep inside.
“Here, I also bought some strawberries” he said softly as he handed it to you.
“Thanks hoon” you smiled and hugged him tightly before taking the bag from his hands.
“I heard strawberries go well with yogurt”
“Yeah.. it does. The sweetness from the strawberry evens out with the sourness of the yogurt” you smiled.
Juhoon’s gaze faltered a bit as your comment left your mouth. Have you said something wrong? Before you could ask about it-Juhoon started to hear voices.
“There’s no way he can keep up”
“His personality is so boring”
The voices kept coming, but your gentle tug on his sleeve made him gain control over his thoughts again.
“You ok?” You said softly.
He looked into your eyes without saying anything, offering his hand so you guys can get going. With a smile, you accepted and led him into your house while the other members voices fade into the background.
“Thanks for helping me, hoon” you smiled as you looked over to him, who was washing the strawberries.
“I don’t have other things to do” he said bluntly while you had a small pout.
“Just say you hate me” you said jokingly while sulking.
You heard a soft sigh before feeling a warmth on your shoulder, followed by a faint scent of cologne.
“I don’t hate you” his voice echoed in your ear as he gently nuzzled his face into your shoulder. Your heart fluttered as you patted his head and smiled.
“I know, I was teasing” you said while turning to the side to plant a soft peck on his cheeks. Juhoon finally broke into a rare, soft smile.
“Smile more, it suites you” you said as you kissed his cheek again.
“I always wanted to ask you something” he said while looking at you, hands hovering hesitantly before finally setting it on your waist.
“Do you feel like I belong in Cortis”
Your eyes widened a bit as you cupped his cheek, knowing that something must be bothering him.
“Of course! You keep up so well, and you also match their energy- you just don’t see it” you said while stroking his cheek with your thumb.
“I really don’t see it though, I think they are better off without me” he confessed.
You punched his chest- not too hard, but firm enough.
“Don’t say that ever again. Martin loves you- and so does the rest. You literally get babied by them even though you’re not the oldest. Actions speaks louder than words, Juhoon” you frowned while comforting him.
“You really think so? You don’t think I talk too slow.. or that I’m not worthy” he asked as his nonchalant facade breaks, revealing the soft and crushed boy underneath.
“I know so, so don’t listen to any hate”
You smiled as you pulled him in for a kiss. You felt his breath hitch before leaning in and cupping your cheek. Once you pulled away, you could see his stupidly cute grin plastered on his face.
-However, strawberries are easy to grow for beginners.”
