#moonbin blurbs

08:37AM Confessing your feelings to someone you're in love with, is rarely easy. It's understandable how your heart is currently beating faster than usual. You walk up to MoonBin and just blurt out: "I really really like you." He stares blankly at you before breaking into laughter. "Well I sure hope you do. We've been dating for months now babe."

[6:38pm] You picked up your phone to check the time, then glanced back at Moonbin on the couch next to you. A mug still containing half a cup of warm tea sat on the table next to him as he focused intently on his work, quiet music coming through the speakers on his laptop. A large fuzzy blanket he’d given you as a gift, but which somehow ended up being used just as often by him, lay across both of your laps. The novel you were reading sat atop it, reluctantly closed with a bookmark placed neatly inside just before the good part. You checked your phone again and decided there was no way to delay it any longer.

“We should probably start heading to the theater now,” you said, breaking the silence. Moonbin blinked suddenly as if awakened from a trance, then checked the time on his laptop and frowned.

“You’re right,” he said.

You sat in silence together, neither one of you moving. A sound outside the window caught your attention and you turned to see that a gentle rain had started, blurring your view of the vibrant city lights below.

“I don’t want to move,” he said.

“Me neither,” you agreed.

The rain pattered on.

“…The movie will still be in theaters next week,” he said finally.

“Good thinking,” you replied. He smiled, touched his forehead to yours, then turned back to his laptop and got back to work. Outside, the rain got heavier, but you paid it no mind. Instead, you readjusted the blanket across your legs, leaned your head against Moonbin’s shoulder, and picked up your book, right where you’d left off.

[8:26pm] “I think I have sand in my shoes,” you whispered, continuing to shuffle them slowly anyway as you slow-danced on the beach with Moonbin. There were only a handful of people still on the shore at night, and none near enough to hear you, but that just made you all the more hesitant to disturb the tranquil atmosphere with your normal speaking voice.

“So do I,” he whispered back, apparently equally reluctant to break the silence. “And I think that wind blew some ocean spray onto me because now the side of my shirt feels sticky.”

“Do you want to go?” you asked, pulling back just enough to look into his eyes. He returned your gaze for a moment, then looked up into a sky full of stars, and the moon shining brightly above you.

“No,” he smiled, slightly adjusting his grip on your hand before intertwining your fingers together. “Do you?”

“Nope.”

His smile widened as he placed a gentle kiss on your forehead and gestured for you to rest your head against him once more, which you did happily. Not far from where you were standing, small waves crashed lazily onto the shore and dissipated into foam, creating the perfect natural melody as you enjoyed your quiet moment on the beach together.

[12:22pm] “Didn’t you say you wanted to make another bowl of popcorn?” you asked Moonbin, eyeing the dwindling bowl of kernels even though the movie was barely half over.

“Maybe later,” he replied, wrapping his arms around you and scooting lower on the couch so he could rest his head on your shoulder more comfortably. “But right now I’d rather stay here and cuddle you instead.”

04:12 PM It had been a few days since you last saw him. He was busy with promotions, but knowing that didn’t stop you from missing him. Last time he came over was after a shoot and you could still find small traces of him around your apartment. You hate to disturb him when he is busy with work, but you decide to call him. “Don’t get me wrong MoonBin, but next time you come over, please wash up beforehand. My bed is STILL covered in glitter and it’s been over a week now!”

[6:42pm] When you and Moonbin stopped for a few minutes to listen to a group of musicians busking on the street, he snuck a glance at you and smiled fondly just as the last song was wrapping up.

“What?” you asked, looking over and catching his eye.

“Nothing,” he said, taking your hand as you continued on your way together. “It’s just every time I look over at you when there’s music playing you’re always dancing.”

[8:22pm] Moonbin was quite flustered when you asked if he could pretend to be your boyfriend for a wedding you were attending, but after going back and forth with himself for nearly a week, he ultimately decided that as your best friend, it was only right to help you out with the favor you asked of him. Not to mention he’d been trying to work up the nerve to confess to you for quite a while now, and despite his initial hesitation, he knew an opportunity when he saw one.

“Thank you so much for doing this,” you whispered, leaving the reception hand-in-hand as you walked back to his car together.

“It’s no problem,” he said with a smile, his heart starting to thump in his chest with every step that took you further and further away from the party. “I had a lot of fun.”

“So did I,” you smiled back before sneaking a peek behind you. “Okay, I think we’re far away enough now, you can let go of my hand if you want.”

“Okay,” he said.

You kept walking together.

“Moonbin.”

“Yeah.”

“You’re still holding my hand.”

“You said I can let go if I want to,” he said, his voice suddenly softening. “Is it okay if…I don’t want to?”

You stopped walking.

“What?”  

“I kind of like this,” he said, raising your intertwined hands. “For real. I like you, for real. Is that okay?”

You blinked at him for a long moment, looking into his face as you tried to process his words and decide whether he really said what you thought he said, but the small, hopeful smile that had appeared on his face was undeniable. Without realizing it, that same smile soon appeared on your own face as the answer to his question came to you more naturally than you would have imagined.

“Yeah,” you replied, giving his hand a gentle squeeze. “That’s okay.”

[11:03pm] Moonbin can’t stop replaying the video his friends took for him of the exact moment you said yes.
