"what is your family doing for christmas?"

the energetic girl walked with a bounce, her hands tucked warmly in her pocket so as to avoid the cold.

beomgyu shrugged.

she thought of another question, just trying to get him to say anything, "what'd you get on the math test last week?"

"187."

"wow! that's amazing! let's go celebrate," yue skipped ahead, and didn't bother to turn around to see if he followed; she knew he always would.

and she was right. beomgyu followed after the girl, wondering what they could possibly have to celebrate. he always got good grades. he didn't have a choice. so why celebrate that? he never had before.

"wait here," she demanded, before skipping off to who knows where.

beomgyu blew out a breath, able to watch it float up in the air because of the freezing cold temperatures. he sat down on a park bench, pulling his jacket tighter around him, wondering what was taking yue so long.

his thoughts must have jinxed it, because as soon as he started to think about her, she popped up.

"ta-da!" she held out an ice cream for him, "ice cream is my favorite in cold weather," yue told him, licking the cone.

beomgyu took the treat warily, not sure if he'd be able to eat it with how cold it is.

"do you not want it?" she asked, noticing how he had just been staring at it, "i'm sorry, i should've asked first. you don't have to eat it."

he immediately began to eat, shaking his head, "i'm fine."

"are you sure?" she asked, knowing he was lying; he was shivering in between each bite. beomgyu nodded, still struggling.

"it's good, thanks."

yue giggled, watching a little bit drip onto his chin.

beomgyu rose a brow, "what?"

"you have a little something- here," she reached over, wiping it off with her thumb, "there you go."

he rubbed his chin gently, unable to ignore the foreign feeling in the pit of his stomach.
