literally rescheduled everything he had today to keep it free. Also might be heading over to a certain Korean's place.
does not expect anything, so he's playing games.
decided to drive for once. So you might be hearing a nice sounding car near your place. He does kind of like street racing.
did hear the car! He gets up and looks out the window, curious.
just got out of his car, stretching a bit before shutting the door lightly.
smiles, and runs to the door. He flings it open. "Xiang!"
smiles back and walks up to him. "Hey."
waves. "Why are you here?" He asks.
"You ask such a silly question. Why else would I be here for?" Snorts a bit.
steps out of the way. "Oh, yeah...come in!"
walks inside, slipping his shoes off at the entrance. "I wanted to make sure my day was free for you."
grins. "You did? Thank you!"
smiles. "It was no problem." Isn't telling you how much work he has to make up.
pulls him into a hug. "That's just what I wanted for my birthday, a day with you!"
hugs him back, slightly surprised at the sudden affection. "Ah. I guess I did good then."
nuzzles his neck. "You did! I'm glad you're here!"
places a chaste kiss on his cheek. "I don't really have plans made though."
grins. "Well...we can do something special!"
tilts his head. "Special? Like what?"
shrugs. "I don't know...oh! I have a lot of persimmons and strawberries! We can eat those!"
laughs a bit. "That isn't exactly something special. But it doesn't sound like a bad idea."
smiles, and tugs him to the kitchen. "Okay, here!"
dragged to the kitchen. he doesn't mind though,
has a few large bowls of them on his table. Apparently, he really does have a LOT.
not sure whether to be amused by this or...perhaps to tell him to lay off a bit on the fruit.
was stuck with a lot because the farms grew a lot. He thinks he should sell them or something.
thinks selling them would be a good idea. Certainly hope you don't plan on eating it all at least.
won't eat them all at once. He offers Xiang a bowl. "Here, have some!"
takes it from him. "You certainly have a lot in your kitchen."
nods. "I do! Some were given to me, and I bought some...we grew a lot this year!"
"You'll be sick of them by the time they go out of season."
nods. "But by the time they are again, I'll want them!"
"I guess that is true. But you won't be thinking about that while you're sick of them."
shrugs, and eats a strawberry. "Oh well. They're good until that point!"
fiddling with one of the persimmons. "You want to go out somewhere?" Seems to have a sudden idea.
nods. "Yes! Where, though?"
"I have an idea where perhaps."
picks up another strawberry. "Where is that?"
thinks for a moment. "I don't want to tell you."
bites the strawberry. "When can we go?" He asks.
"Whenever you want to go." Peeling the persimmon he was playing with now.
stands up. "Can we go now? We can take this along...right?"
raises an eyebrow. "We can go now if you like."
picks up the bowl. "Alright!"
washes and dries his hands before heading back to the front door.
follows with a strawberry in his mouth.
opens the front door to let Korea out first.
trots out to the car. "Woah! This is your car?"
follows him quietly, pulling on a pair of fingerless gloves. "It's mine. Why do you ask?"
grin as he pulls on the gloves. "I didn't think you'd have a car like this!"
"I guess I don't talk about it much. I like cars though..."
grins. "That's so cool! Your car looks nice!"
grins a bit. "If I'm gonna race it, I want a car that looks nice to see too."
stares. "You race your car?"
gives you a blank look. "Yes...why do you ask?"
shakes his head. "No reason! I didn't think you would, that's all!"
thinks you'd be surprised how many speeding tickets he's gotten then. "We could go racing if you like."
grins. "That...that sounds fun!"
unlocks the door. "Get in then."
does get into the car, smiling.
gets into the driver's seat. Buckling his seat bell and inserting the key into the ignition. "Buckle up."
buckles his seat belt and put the bowl on his lap. "Alright, let's go!"
starts driving and already starting off with suddenly doing a u-turn.
drops some of the fruit :C He grabs the seat. "Woah...hey!"
"We were facing the wrong way." Sounds as though this makes his maneuver totally fine.
is trying not to panic 8| "O-oh."
drives perfectly fine. He's probably a much better driver then he seems to be. Even if he is going past the speed limit.
stares out the window. Everything is speeding by. It's unnerving.
heading over to the usual spot he races at. "You okay?"
nods. "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine!" He waves both hands. "Perfectly fine!"
thinks for a little. "We'll go another time. This is the first time you've been in my car after all."
blinks and stares. "Huh...uhh?"
takes a sharp turn onto the next street. "We'll just head to the destination I originally thought of."
grabs the seat again. "Oh!"
"Oh that was a red light we just passed. Thank god no one is around." Isn't bothered at all.
looks around. "Xiang..!"
"Yes?" Glances at him. "Is there a problem?"
is staring. "What if someone had hit you? This is dangerous!"
"It's late out. Barely anyone is out at this time." Sounds like he knows this by experience.
nods. "That's true..but....! Still!"
"We'll be fine. I've only gotten into a few accidents before."
staaaares. "A few?!"
"Yeah. They weren't bad." Takes another sharp turn. You can hear the wheels screeching.
is holding onto the seat. "What happened in them?"
has to think a little about that. "Not much."
frowns. "Did you get hurt? When were they?"
"Awhile ago. Maybe sprained something." Thinks you're worrying too much.
can't help but be worried 8C "Well, don't get in more accidents!"
"I'll try my best." Slowed down a bit once they seem to be going uphill. But still going kind of fast for going uphill.
looks up the hill. "What's up there?"
"What do you mean?" Is playing dumb.
shrugs. "I don't know! I'm asking!"
"Nothing." Isn't answering the question properly.
staaaares. "Then why are we going there?"
grumbles a bit. "It's clear out today."
stares, then shrugs and looks out the window. He decides Xiang is just acting weird.
thinks you're a little slow. It's a perfectly clear night and what else do you do on a hill/peak anyways?!
doesn't think that's something Xiang would think of doing! So he doesn't think of it.
guesses he doesn't. But, hey, they arrived at the peak at least. Maybe it'll make more sense now.
puts the bowl on the ground, and unfastens his seat belt after a moment. "A peak?"
pulls the parking break and gets out of the car. "What? Something wrong about it?"
follows him out. "No, no! It's nice!"
kicks the dirt a bit quietly. "You said something special..." Looks a little embarrassed.
smiles, and takes his hand. "This is special! It's special because you're here!"
holds his hand tightly. He doesn't say anything, just flushing a slight pink.
leans his head on his shoulder, looking over the peak.
nuzzles closer to him a bit, staring out also. He's not telling you he's kind of cold up there.
smiles, stroking his hand with his thumb.
swings their hands for a moment. "Oh. There's another place I think we should go to."
looks at him. "Eh? Where else?"
"You'll probably recognize it when we get there."
smiles. "Is it really special?"
"I would think so. Let's get back in." Really gonna regret not bringing a jacket by the end of their little adventure.
follows him back to the car. "Where are we going, then?"
gets back inside, starting the car. "N. Seoul tower."
looks at him and grins. "What..really?"
nods at you. "Yes. Why would I make it up?" Starts driving towards said destination.
shrugs, fastening his seat belt quickly. "
I didn't expect that!"
thinks you might understand if you rummaged through his glove compartment. Hopes you don't.
is pretty sure he already knows why. He sits there grinning, even though he is still afraid of dying.
is driving much more tamely then earlier. So stop worrying so much. He really is a good driver.
is still scared they're going to crash 8|
isn't going to crash! If you get nervous in his car, he'll start getting nervous.
tries not to look nervous, then.
thinks you shouldn't be nervous. He's being responsible and paying attention this time. Still might be taking turns a little too quickly.
looks out the window so he can't see his nervous face.
thinks you being oddly quiet...is saying something. He might have unintentionally grip the wheel a little tighter.
opens the glovebox to make himself look less nervous. "What's in here?"
already knows you're nervous. "Uhh documents for my car. Some candy..." Trailed off as he tries to remember what else he keeps in there.
takes out some stuff and looks at it. "Oh...I see!"
forgot he left the locks in there, he thought they were somewhere in the back seats. "Might not want to eat the candy though."
smiles when he finds the locks. "And this is for today, right?" He asks.
glances at him. "...I thought I left them in the back..."
keeps smiling. "Well, I already knew you had them! Is there a marker in here?" He looks through the glove compartment.
"There should be." Concentrates back on the road though. "It might be farther in the back somewhere."
paws through the compartment and finds it. "Aha!" He takes out the marker and writes on the locks.
slows down to a stop since they arrived. "Sorry about that. I'll drive more safely the rest of the time..."
starts to get out of the car. "It's okay! Really!"
shakes his head. "It makes me nervous if someone else is nervous while I'm driving." More likely to crash then.
rubs the back of his head. "Sorry!"
shakes his head a little, glancing up at the tower.
takes his hand and shows him what he wrote on the lock.
tilts his head a bit, looking at the lock. "Eh?"
smiles. "It says our names on this side.." he shows him the other side. "And love forever on this side!" No, he doesn't think it's lame.
kind of thinks it's lame. But he kind of likes it, so it's okay. Actually he might have blushed just a little.
grins, and takes his hand. "Come on, let's go up the tower!"
holds your hand lightly. "Ah. Alright!"
leads him to the building, smiling quite brightly.
follows after quietly. He smiles a little, seeing you so happy.
is very happy! Leaving the lock is almost like a promise and he likes that.
hasn't decided what to do after this though.
doesn't mind that~ He's just pleased that they're there.
is glad that the other is pleased then. He wants the other to enjoy his birthday.
is certainly enjoying his birthday~
thinks that's certainly good. He had to research some of these silly things for the other.
is glad he went through all that trouble. It means he really cares~
doesn't want to give him a lousy gift. Trying is involved for this.
still thinks it's very sweet of him to be so thoughtful.
thinks they should hurry up with this lock business so they can stop thinking about this.
leads him to the gate. "Here! Do you see a place?"
looks through the gate. "I think it can fit here!"
goes to his side, and unlock it to put it there. "Do you want to write anything else on it? I have the marker!"
shakes his head a little. Wouldn't know what to write on it.
nods, and locks it onto the gate. "Here. Do you want to throw the key over the edge?"
"We should throw it together." Knows this might be an maneuver.
laughs and nods. "Alright! How?"
"I guess one of us holds it and the other holds his hand over the one holding the key..." Okay, this is kind of complicated.
holds out his hand holding the key. "If you want to try that!"
"It would be worth a try." Puts his hand over Korea's hand.
tries to throw it with his hand over his.
thinks their throw is a little clumsy, but it somehow worked out.
grins brightly, shifting his hand to hold Xiang's.
kind of watches the key fall, holding his hand tightly.
leans his head on his shoulder.
stares out a little more. "Ah. I can't remember what else we should do..."
shrugs. "I don't mind! We don't have to do anything!"
pouts a little. "I want you to enjoy your entire birthday." As in at least do something most of the day.
nods. "Well...what else CAN we do?"
shrugs a bit. He can't really think of anything at the moment.
pecks his cheek. "You can think of something!"
thinks you're expecting too much if he's suddenly going to think of an idea. "Is there anything else you want to do?"
shakes his head. "No, I'm happy that you agreed to do this!"
"Agreed to this? It's not like you asked. I brought you here."
nods. "I'm glad you thought of this, anyways!" He looks at Xiang, still quite smiling.
shyly looks away flushing a bit. "We still have plenty of time to do other things!"
pecks his cheek. "I know that! We have forever to do things, though, right?"
"It's your birthday though. We should do just a bit more today."
nods. "Hmm...what else..?"
shrugs at you. "Anything you like I guess."
laughs, and says quietly, "Well, I like YOU..!"
glances at you before his face turns a rather bright shade of red and he has to look away, flustered.
laughs, quite amused. "I'm kidding! Unless you want to!"
thinks him getting flustered isn't funny! "I-I wouldn't mind but suddenly saying that!"
shrugs. "You asked!"
"...T-True." Still red in the face.
pecks his cheek. "Don't worry! We don't have to! Not right now!"
wouldn't want to do it right now! They're not exactly in a place to be doing that!
knows that! It'd be weird if they did, and pretty embarrassing.
"Ah in the mean time, where do you want to go. We don't have to walk so there's a larger variety of places to go."
nods. "I don't know! I don't mind! Somewhere else that's really romantic..." He thinks about this.
isn't a romantic so he can't really think of other places to go to off the top of his head.
shrugs. "Oh..." He remembers something. "Kowloon said something not too long ago!"
tilts his head. "What did Kowloon say?" Always wonders if it's good to listen to him sometimes.
pouts a bit. "HE said we can't ever get married or something! But...maybe, in the future...!"
snorts a bit. Not sure if getting married is the best idea but still. "Kowloon says a lot of things like that. Don't let it bother you."
nods. "I thought so! But it still bothers me a little!"
"Don't let it." Kisses you on the cheek lightly.
smiles at that. "Alright, alright, I won't!"
"So you have any ideas for our next destination?"
shrugs. "The Flying Bird Teahouse is nice...!"
"Flying Bird Teahouse?" Thinks that's an odd name.
nods. "It's very nice! And romantic!"
"Do you know how to get there from here then?"
nods. "I think so!"
starts heading back then. "I have a gps if we get lost in case."
"I don't think we will! Just as long as you follow my directions!"
is good at following directions, so this shouldn't be a problem. Unless you sucked at giving directions.
thinks he should be able to lead him there. "Go down that street!"
listens to him and starts driving down the street.
looks out the window, smiling.
humming lightly, not actually realizing he's hymming.
humming*
looks at him. "What are you humming?"
blinks a bit. "...I wouldn't know. Wasn't paying attention."
shrugs, and points. "Turn up there!"
makes the turn once they get to that point.
smiles at that.
"And there's another turn up there!" He likes giving directions.
thinks you should warn a little earlier though, but just listens to your directions anyways.
gives him directions as best as he can.
is following them to the best of his abilities. At least they got to their destination.
climbs out of the car, quite excited. "Come on, we can go eat!"
follows after him, making sure his car is locked. "What type of place is this?"
"A tea house! It's very nice!" He replies.
looks around. It really kinda is.
smiles. "It's very nice!"
smiles back at him. "It looks like a nice place."
nods. "It's nicer inside!" He leads him in.
looks around, the curiosity is showing on his face.
smiles as a bird flies by. "See? It's great!"
blinks as he watches them fly by.
smiles, and takes Xiang's hand as they go to the table.
wonders if those birds are tamed or something, kind of not realizing he's being led along.
knows that they're tamed! He shows him to the table, then sits.
sits across from Korea. He's looking around the place. The decorations are pretty after all.
thinks it's really pretty, too! He likes this place.
seems to like it too. It's interesting to say the least.
waves for the lady, and orders what he likes. "Oh..Xiang, what do you want?" He asks.
shrugs a bit. He's never eaten here. "Do you recommend anything?"
grins. "I have five-taste watermelon punch! It's very good!"
thinks that name is kind of odd. But he'll try it since the other says it's good.
orders it for him, and grins as the lady goes to get it for them. "It's berry juice with watermelon in it!"
seems to be browsing the menu at all the strange and different named items.
waits, smiling at the birds.
"This place has a very unique menu..."
nods. "Yes! But it's all delicious!"
"I guess that's good then." Wouldn't know though.
nods. "Yes, I'm sure you'll like it!"
isn't usually picky, so that must be a good thing. "I suppose I will."
smiles as the woman comes back with the drinks. He thanks her for them.
looking around at the other people curiously. He glances back at Korea once the drinks arrive.
takes his drink and sips. "Is it good?
takes a small sip from it, nodding at him. "Really good."
smiles brightly. "I'm glad you like it!"
smiles back at him, enjoying the drink.
sips from his drink again
playing with the straw absentmindedly before looking back at Korea. He can't actually think of anything to say at the moment.
smiles to him. Xiang doesn't need to say anything.
feels like he should at least try making small talk.
doesn't mind the silence at all! He sips his drink happily.
wonders what the other wants to do after this.
wouldn't mind just returning home or something!
guesses he could that. Would kind of feel his presence isn't needed then once they get back.
wants Xiang with him! It's make him happy.
thinks staying with the other would make himself happy too.
wants to stay with Xiang, then!
doesn't think that would be too hard to accomplish.
is glad he'll stay!
will stay for as long as you want him too.
wants him to stay forever >u>
can't really stay forever. He does kind of need to work.
thinks he can do work from his house!
has meetings he has to attend too. He can't just work from home!
thinks he can go to meetings, then return to HIS house!
thinks you're being a little silly. He can't exactly live with you.
wishes he could, though. He'd love if they lived together.
wouldn't mind that, but reality speaking, it'll take longer to get to some sort of agreement like that.
knows that...he wishes it was possible, though.
doesn't think it's impossible. Just unlikely.
thinks that he'll need to beg China or something :T
thinks he has other things to bother China about at the moment.
wonders what they could be...?
waves his hand dismissively. It's nothing he should get himself into at least.
is curious now, so he'll bother him about it. "What do you need to tell him?"
"It's nothing." Goes back to drinking his drink, hoping the other doesn't push on the subject.
tilts his head. "What secret could you have? I can't think of anything..!"
"It's not really a secret." Thinks it's a little more obvious than that.
frowns. "Have you told him about me?"
shakes his head. "I haven't really talked to him much recently."
nods. "It's not because you're embarrassed, right?"
shakes his head again. "Its not that."
looks a little relieved. "Oh...good!"
smiles a bit. "It's definitely not that."
looks pleased. "I'm glad that's not why!"
shakes his head. "I just really haven't talked to him much out of business."
nods. "Well...You should tell him!"
"I guess I should..."
smiles. "I'm glad, then!"
"I haven't seen him recently though. He's been pretty busy himself."
frowns. "He always seems busy!"
"I guess you're right. But we all kind of are."
nods. "That is true!"
reminded of what he has to do later. "Hmm. But right now we're supposed to enjoy everything."
grins. "But I am enjoying this! It's time with you!"
"I'm glad then." He gives you a rather happy smile.
leans across the table to peck his lips.
kisses him back lightly.
parts, mainly because leaning across a table is awkward. He sits back down and smiles.
