fluff below the cut !!
“she’s so pretty..” mingi expressed, sighing softly watching you. his best friend, jongho sighed heavily and rolled his eyes.
“why don’t you just tell her that?” mingi’s eyes widened as he looked at his best friend. “are you insane? look at her and look at me.” mingi rubbed his head over his face.
“are you sure i don’t look crazy right now?” you asked your friend, seeun for the third time. “y/n, your constant questions are making you look crazy!” she groaned out.
“why did no one tell me he was coming? i would’ve definitely put on better clothes.” you pout as seeun ate her watermelon, ignoring you completely.
jongho and seeun were annoyed with their lovestrucked friends, so they devised a plan.
“great idea, jongho. i was practically melting in that sun. ice cream will definitely cool me off.” mingi rambled as jongho rolled his eyes.
“yeah, totally..” as mingi was walking to the stand, jongho looked behind him and give seeun a thumbs up. he then quickly walked away from mingi.
“hey, y/n, do you want some ice cream? let’s go get some.” she grabs y/n’s hand and drags her there. “okay.. you just got done eating a whole watermelon. now you want ice cream..” seeun gave y/n a look that immediately shut her up.
“i need to go to the bathroom, you know what i want.” she immediately walks a different direction. “okay.. wait, i actually don’t know what you want.” y/n shrugged and made her way towards the ice cream stand.
“what would you like sir?” the worker asks him. “may i get two scoops of strawberry ice cream and for my friend-“ jongho turns around and sees that jongho is not there. he is instead met with y/n, who looks equally confused and slightly petrified.
“uh.. what would you want, y/n?” the way mingi said her name had her heart doing somersaults. “um vanilla please. one scoop.” y/n replied softly. she knew that blonde head looked familiar.
“that would be ten fifty.” mingi immediately reached for his wallet while y/n spoke up. “i’ll pay for mine, it is okay!” y/n digged through her purse for her wallet that somehow was invisible.
“it’s okay, it is on me.” mingi replied with a small smile. he paid the worker and got the two cups of ice cream.
when mingi handed y/n the ice cream, their hands touched, and they both stung each other. the tip of mingis ears turned red and y/n bit her lip.
“wanna sit on the bench?” mingi suggested, hoping and praying you wouldn’t reject his proposal and completely embarrass him.
“sure!” y/n says a little too enthusiastically, which mingi doesn’t catch since his heart is beating loudly.
mingi lets y/n walk in front of him as he tries to calm down. how should he act? should he start the conversation? should they just be quiet? why does she look so pretty?
y/n tried not to trip when walking. she worries if he thinks she’s walking weird. she thought she was going to faint when he smiled at her. and when he paid for her ice cream. why does he look so pretty?
y/n sits down first and mingi after, leaving some distance between them. y/n was a little bummed out. why was he so far away? with a frown, she ate her ice cream.
mingi was trying to come up with ways to speak to her. his eyes were on his 2 scoops of ice cream, which were slowly melting. he looked at her and saw that she was frowning.
“i’m sorry-”
“i’m sorry-”
mingi and y/n both apologized at the same time. they both looked at each other and giggle slightly. “you go first.” mingis says. “no you.” y/n replies fighting back a smile.
“i wanted to apologize for making you uncomfortable. i noticed you looked upset and i can’t help but think it’s because of me being awkward.” mingi confessed as you tilt your head in surprise.
“that’s crazy because i feel the same way. i felt i made you uncomfortable because you say so far away from me..” mingi immediately slid over to her, closing the gap. you laugh immediately.
“sorry, i didn’t want to make you uncomfor-. okay, no more with that word.” he sighs to himself as you giggle. “it’s okay, mingi.” his face lights up immediately as he hears his name from your voice.
“your ice cream is melting.” you tell him as he quickly licks the dripping ice cream on his finger. you laugh again and cover your mouth. mingi loves your laugh. even though you try to cover it, it’s still loud and silly.
“nothing is that funny.” seeun snickers as jongho shakes his head. “she’s making him bigheaded. he already thinks he’s hilarious.” both of the friends were watching you two behind a bush.
“i like your outfit today, y/n.” mingi compliments after the laughing died down. you immediately freeze before smiling softly. “thank you, i like yours too.” you bump your shoulder into his and he looks at you and smile.
you both stare are each other before mingi clears his throat, “so um, why are you here?” he asks. “i was here because seeun invited me. she actually wanted ice cream but had to go to the bathroom.. it’s been awhile.” you look at your watch.
“same with jongho. he basically disappeared when i was going to ask him what he wanted..”
you both look at each other before shaking your heads and laughing.
“no way they actually tried to set us up.” mingi said while eating some of his ice cream. “right, i’m sorry mingi.”
“mhm, for what?” he asked while he locked the spoon clean. “for basically wasting your time. i know you don’t like me.” you forced out a laugh as you looked at your shoes.
it was silent for a moment before mingi spoke up.
“who said that?” you immediately snapped your head up and saw him looking at you with an unreadable expression. the atmosphere shifted into something serious.
“nobody! i just know you don’t like me.” “okay but how do you know?” he replies backed immediately. your heart is beating rapidly and you don’t know why but it feels like everything went silent and it’s only you and mingi.
“i mean you kind of avoid me. plus, you are basically you.” mingi cocks his head to the side.
“i didn’t know me avoiding you was that obvious..” mingi says to himself but quickly speaks up again. “i do it so i don’t make a fool out of myself. every time i see you, i can’t look away. my heart starts beating really hard like it is now when im close to you.”
“and what do you mean “you are basically you”? you are out of this world…” you don’t miss the way he subtly checks you out when he says that, which causes heat to rush up your face.
when he realizes what he says, he chuckles awkwardly and looks away. you have a permanent smile on your face. you grab his hand and when he looks at you, your kiss his cheek.
“i’m sorry, i dont know what to say.“ you giggle slightly as you look at him. “you’re not embarrassed?” mingis hand is sweaty but you don’t mind. “no.. i really appreciate what you just said. i really like you mingi.”
