━ FAVORITE DWEEB.
he’s met with her bag suddenly thrust into his arms; a roll of his eyes soon follows, but jasper’s smile betrays him, eyes following the girl as she stares up at the sky – he thinks about how her very presence alone challenges the sun. “weirdo.” he addresses her, although the tone of his voice – and the smile in his eyes – makes it evident that he means it only in fondness. he hands her back her bag, trailing down the steps side by side with her; he makes sure his eyes only fly from the ground to her gaze, ground to gaze. their arms link together like clockwork as they fall into a steady rhythm together, and jasper smiles to himself, thinking – hoping – this is how it’ll always be between the two of them.
“that place two blocks from here has some pretty great mac and cheese, too.” he says, “we could– ah.” wincing slightly at a sharp pain in his left rib – last night’s match had not been kind – he forces himself to smile once more, looking up at the girl and continuing with his sentiment. “– get some pizza, mac and cheese, then, i don’t know… the park?”
he could say anything he wanted, but she knew he loved her so it was FINE if he wanted to poke fun at her and her abnormal antics. it felt good to HER and she no longer lived to please others; not since she left seoul. jp knew that; without really asking him to, he accepted her as is with no questions and no conditions. that’s why she, in turn, loved him. their friendship meant, no, not the world, but BEYOND this small, puny world to her. her head comes to rest on his upper arm ( curse his TALLNESS ) as he speaks, an excited squeak leaving her lips once mac and cheese is mentioned. somewhere there was supposed to be a JOKE about treating her to lunch and she’d gladly MARRY the hell out of him, but the sound he makes, the EXPRESSION on his face ( soon masked by another smile ), halts her quip. yuri stops them, concern flashing in her doe eyes. ❛ are you okay, oppa? ❜
