"You can open your eyes now"

Jihye's eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the brightness before clearing her vision. She let out a gasp when she saw what was before her.

"Wow...you setted this up for us?"

"Technically I asked the club to help, but yes"

"I thought you hated the love club though"

"I only said it was stupid, I didn't hate it", Renjun came behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. Head nuzzling in the crook of her neck, he left a kiss before looking back up at her.

"Sit down", he urged.

Together they sat on the cloth that was laid down, a basket filled with different treats for them to indulge in together and of course, the useful tree to provide shade from the sun. It was simple, but pretty.

Jihye loved it, to go back to the little green spot except this time it was with her boyfriend. Remembering when she thought of it as a date when she arrived her for the first time, it made her chuckle when she realized it's a thought that actually became true.

"Remember when you hated to have me here?", Jihye asked playfully.

Renjun groaned and rolled his eyes. "Not that again"

"You really hated my guts back then, it's fair to laugh about it now"

"Yeah, well what about the time you forced me to take your cereal bar?"

"I was being kind!"

"Alright, stalker"

Jihye glared at him, which only made Renjun laugh as he brought a hand up to ruffle her hair.

After finishing their snacks, they laid down against the tree together side by side. A few laughs erupted from both of them as they continued their conversation.

"Yeah yeah sure, you might've caused trouble but a badboy still always has their cute moments", Jihye giggled, scrolling through her phone to find a clip of Renjun.

"Ahh why do you have that!?", Renjun tried to grab her phone but failed to do so.

"It's just you and Jaemin together what's so bad about it? You're adorable", Jihye pouted as she watched the clip repeatedly for a few times.

"Kiyuu!", Renjun sighed as he felt his soul being taken away remembering that the video consisted of him and Jaemin repeatedly doing aegyo with each other. He didn't even know there was a video of it, probably Donghyuck recorded it.

Jihye giggled. "It's alright baby, the video is safe with me", she winked.

"It better be", Renjun growled. It wasn't like he despised the video, in fact he did it on his own will but still it feels embarrassing.

Jihye turned off her phone and cuddled with the boy, her hand coming to rest against his waist. "Can you sing please?"

"Butterfly if you're secretly recording-"

"I'm not!", Jihye exclaimed. "I just want to hear your voice"

"I want to be the only one who hears your voice", Jihye drew circles using her finger on his chest as she waited.

Cleaning his throat a few times, Renjun
breathed a little before finally starting to sing.

Wǒ qídǎo yǒngyǒu yī kē tòumíng de xīnlíng hé huì liúlèi de yǎnjīng
Gěi wǒ zài qù xiāngxìn de yǒngqì yuèguò huǎngyán qù yǒngbào nǐ
Měi dāng wǒ zhǎo bù dào cúnzài de yìyì měi dāng míshī zài hēiyè
Yèkōng zhōng zuì liàng de xīng qǐng zhǐyǐn kàojìn

"What are you singing about?", Jihye asked, clueless about the lyrics that the Chinese boy had sung about.

"Just...something", Renjun only smiled. "Find it out yourself"

"A hint, please?"

"Hmm...", Renjun was thinking thoughtfully before finally coming up with the right words. "It's my life song"

"Your life song?"

"Yeah, the lyrics resemble my life I guess"

Jihye pouted, now she was even more curious about the song. "How am I supposed to know? Wǒ bú shì zhōngguó rén", Jihye said, using the little knowledge of Chinese that she knew.

"Duì,nǐ shì wǒ de nǔpéngyou", Renjun chuckled.

"Ugh, I know you're bilingual but please spare me", Jihye pouted, which only made Renjun laugh louder.

"Nǐ zhēn kěài", he said in Chinese one last time, before pressing a kiss on Jihye's temple as they enjoyed the rest of their small date.

If you're curious, the song that Renjun was singing is The Brightest Star In The Night Sky by Escape Plan. He recommended the song plenty of times on his radio, even sang a small part of it before and the lyrics fitted the story so I thought 'why not' :)

And this is their conversation in Chinese:

Jihye- I'm not Chinese
Renjun- Yes, (you're not Chinese but instead) you're my girlfriend

Renjun- You're so cute
