Your thoughts were far from present as you slowly walked through the park on your way home. Your hands were shoved in your pockets, gripping the hand warmers Jooheon had given you.
Your mind was busy replaying everything that had gone wrong today. All the annoying comments made your way, the coworkers who seem to like putting all their work on you, the things that never seemed to work out the way you wanted. The little annoying things that kept happening over and over. Dropping things, spilling drinks, bumping into stuff. It had just been one of those days.
Jooheon could tell something was off when he had texted you earlier in the day. Your replies were short and held a lack of emojis and personality than they usually did. Worry crept at the back of his mind, so he decided to meet you on your walk home.
His feet crunched through the snow as he made his way through the park, his smile widening when he spotted your familiar figure headed his way. As he was about to call out, his own voice faltered as he saw the look on your face.
Something had definitely happened.
You looked tired, fed up, and very distracted, not even noticing the person you almost tripped over as you passed by a bench.
He frowned as his chest tightened; he hated seeing you anything less than happy.
Stepping into your path, he watched as you slowly approached him, never fully looking ahead or paying attention. He would have laughed had he not been worried, when you walked directly into him.
Stepping back in alarm, you looked up in a mild panic, ready to apologize to whoever it was you just ran into.
"I'm so sorr-" your voice died when you were met by your boyfriend’s familiar kind, yet piercing gaze. "Honey?"
He smiled at you, but it was a soft, sad smile. "Where were you?"
"Huh?"
He reached out and gently tapped your forehead with the knuckle of his finger. "I could have been a flight of stairs baby. Why aren't you paying attention to where you are going?"
You looked down with a soft pout before meeting his gaze again, all the emotions and stress rising to the surface as you met your boyfriend’s worried gaze.
Seemingly able to see what was happening, he smiled softly at you as he stretched out his arms for you. A soft melancholic smile spread across your face as you stepped forward, wrapping your own arms around him and pressing your face into his chest. His embrace felt like a warm blanket placed over you, you already felt the stress of the day fading just due to his presence.
As he wrapped his arms around you, he let out a loud contented sigh. After holding you in silence for a few moments, you spoke, voice muffled from his puffy jacket.
"I had a bad day."
He nodded before pressing a kiss to your head, "I thought you must have. You seemed off in your texts earlier."
You pulled your head back to meet his eyes, "Is that why you’re here?"
He nodded and you smiled, making his lips curl before he pressed a quick kiss to your lips.
"I'll take you home." Releasing you from your hug, he turned to walk beside you, lacing his fingers through yours. "And you can complain about whatever it was that made you had a bad day."
Jooheon was always a good listener, and he always knew when and how to speak up about what was annoying or hurting you. He cursed your annoying coworkers and lamented about the days when nothing seems to go your way.
Letting out a groan as you complained about one of your particularly annoying coworkers, you shook your head. "I need to stop thinking about it, it's just gonna keep making me mad."
He let out a soft laugh as he looked around, an idea rising. "So, you need a distraction?"
You nodded, watching as he let go of your hand and ran ahead of you. You pouted in confusion, watching as he seemed to pick something up from the ground.
By the time you realized what it was he was doing, it was too late.
You raised your hands in alarm, ready to yell at him, but let out a gasp instead as you recoiled at the snowball flying your direction.
His familiar cackle rose in the air as you looked at him with offense and shock. "Jooheon!"
Quickly spinning around to make your own snowball, he watched you with amusement and relief, glad you were finally smiling again. His smile turned to fear as you pelted him with two snowballs one after another.
Onlookers laughed at your antics as they walked past, enjoying the sight of a grown couple having fun.
After countless more snowballs were thrown between you as you ran around the park, the thoughts of the day were long gone from your mind.
Seeing Jooheon run towards you, you yelped in fear as you run away with a startled laugh. Evading him as you ran around a bench and then a fountain, you yelled out in surprise as he vaulted over a bench to cut you off.
Tackling you, thought as lightly as he could, you laughed as you fell back into the snow, his hand purposefully cupping the back of your head to keep you safe. He was giggling wildly in your ear as he hugged you tight. You smacked his back a few times as you tried to catch your breath.
Jooheon rose up and leaned onto his elbow as he looked over at you with a wide grin. Climbing over you so he was partially on top of you, he looked down at you and let out a soft sigh. "There it is."
You furrowed your brow, "What?"
Reaching his hand up, he gently caressed your face, "Your smile. I was starting to miss it."
Your chest felt warm as he gazed down at you, smiling, you reached up and took his hand. "You always know how to make me smile."
He grinned as he leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to your forehead, then your cheek, and then your lips.
"I'd be a bad boyfriend if I didn't."
"It’s a good thing that you’re the best boyfriend then."
"Am I?"
You nodded and he grinned before peppering your faces with kisses, making you giggle and try to hide yourself.
When he finally finished his assault, he helped you to sit up. You let out a sigh as you looked around the powdery white park. "It's been a long time since in played in the snow."
"We should do it again."
You nodded in agreement as he stood up, reaching out his hands to help you up. Rising to your feet you helped each other brush the snow off your clothes.
As he turned away from you, you took the opportunity and jumped up onto his back. He let out a startled laugh as you wrapped your legs and arms around him, holding him tight.
He laughed, "So I'm your ride home now too?"
You giggled as you hugged your arms around his neck and nodded, "Yes."
He chuckled and shook his head before grabbing your legs to help hold you up. "What was that you said before? What kind of boyfriend am I?"
Grinning, you leaned forward and pressed a kiss to his cheek. "The best."
He nodded as he began carrying you through the park, "That's right. Never forget it."
You chuckled softly as you rested your head on his shoulder. Heart warm, and the grievances of the day forgotten.
xx End xx
I think this came out pretty cute! Jooheon would make such a fun boyfriend.
