when Tazannah
wakes up, she
almost forgets she slept
the night at
Hangyul's. he's
still fast asleep-
the mattresses they
lay on
right beside
each other so
Tazannah
can observe his face
even better.

and she
gets a fright when
his eyes open, a smile
painted on
his cherry lips.
she feels exposed,
cheeks flushed
as he
lets out a cute laugh.
"you a stalker
or something?"

and Tazannah's
cheeks turn a deeper
shade of blush pink-
her arms
hitting his shoulder
playfully. "yah! and to
answer your
question, or
something."

she can't
even look him in
the eye. Hangyul
can't stop
laughing because how cute
can one human
being be? but he steadies
himself and says,
"come on, look
at me."

he lightly tilts
her chin over so that
they're face to face.
Hangyul takes
his time to admire her pretty
eyes that
sparkle like the
stars they were
pointing at
the previous night
by the beach.

you don't need
to be embarrassed- he
starts off
but he's
cut off by a pair
of lips on his,
surprising him- surprising
the both of them.
they're soft and
taste like strawberries,
and for
a second he gets
lost in the kiss
of euphoric nights
and summer skies.

but Tazannah
regains her consciousness
halfway through and pulls
away- albeit
reluctantly-
from the lips that
touched hers,
her first kiss.
"shit, i'm so sorry."

he doesn't
even have the chance to
say that he doesn't mind
but she's
scrambled away,
leaving him
to replay his
first kiss over and
over again.
