#i am being 100% serious like. if you can't embrace the tone maybe it's just not for you. it's not for everyone

Okay maybe it's just that you lack the language and media background to understand what you like about Xena and just think "goofy fight scenes=bad" but I see someone call Xena "so bad it's good" and assume they must be soooo boring. like, sorry, you're just not fun enough to get it. It is genuinely good, just in a way that you can't comprehend.

Your relationship with Jaemin had no titles. You were... together in a weird way. No official feelings, and yet you find yourself pecking his cheek whenever he had to dash to class. It was obvious to others that you had grown attached to each other, and yet they haven't heard you two started dating. Well, it was about time Jaemin made a move.

He didn't tell you any details, just a text that said 'come down.' Which was quite unusual from the usual 'if you don't come down im going to break into your dorm and smother you in hugs'. You wonder what's got him so serious. It's a bit strange to see him all fidgety and nervous around you, often times he would greet you with a kiss on the knuckles, but tonight all you got was an awkward wave.

You don't say anything about it, choosing to go along with whatever he's got planned for tonight's adventure. You can tell he's anxious, his eyes keep darting to the mirrors, something he said he didn't care about at night since there's nobody around. To calm him down, you reach out and entangle your fingers together, caressing his sunkissed skin softly. Jaemin’s hand goes stiff for a second, before it relaxes and grips yours back.

"So, what're we doing tonight, Nana?" That nickname. That damn nickname. It's got his breath hitching and heart beating fast, a smile itching to lift his lips upward. The boy glances at you, and you catch the playful glint in his eyes,

"Somewhere," he replies cooly.

"Are you going to murder me? There are no lights and it's completely empty here." You mumble, suddenly growing a bit tired by the vibrations of the car. Jaemin’s flawless chuckle fills the car, shooting straight to your heart strings. Okay, no doubt you've got something for him too.

"No, I found this place with a really good view, wanted to take you there." And suddenly, you feel the most awake you have in the past week. Who needs coffee when you have Na Jaemin? And plus, just being in the presence of someone who drinks ungodly coffee already has you springing up with energy just when he kisses you. Unintentionally, a big grin creeps up to your face and you fondly look at Jaemin.

After a whole 13 minutes of driving and a bit of chatting, Jaemin stops the car right in front of a road. You frown at the lack of variety, glancing right to left to see anything interesting. Slumping back into your seat, you cross your arms and pout, "There's nothing nice to look at. Just a stupid road and a bunch of grass." You grumble. Jaemin cooes at your upset expression, opening his door to get out.

Your eyes follow him as he walks to the back of the car, before you get out yourself in wonder. You stand back as Jaemin pops the hood of the car open, struggling a bit at the rustiness, you guess it's been some time since it's been open. He climbs in settling down with a sigh, before reaching his arms out to you. You don't question or object, relaxing in his hold and wrapping your arms around his waist.

It seems like you can't take your eyes off of the immaculate looks of his face, grazing each inch of his face and connecting each mole on his neck. Jaemin notices you staring, looking away from the view he was supposed to show you to your eyes, smirking when you quickly advert your eyes away to the front of the car again. He lets out a 'tsk', before clasping your chin with his thumb and index finger to drag your head back to face him.

"Look at the view, pretty." Despite rolling your eyes at the nickname, a smile replaces later in bashfulness, before you turn your head to the so called 'amazing view' he talked about before. And it shall be called amazing because it's absolutely beautiful. From up on a hill, you could see the small town you lived in, not too busy and not too bright, it's warm and peaceful, a bit different from being inside the town yourself.

You don't even want to say 'wow', or anything, really. The moment's too great too ruin with an over-used phrase. The only thing that you do is smile, resting your head on Jaemin’s chest.

Though he would love to see the view, the said boy would much rather take in your appearance right now. Eyes wide with what seemed like stars, cheek pulled in happiness, head resting on him. Sometimes he wonders how he manages to get you here with him, but that doesn't matter, as long as you are then he's not questioning.

Slowly, Jaemin drags your head yet once again to meet his, but unlike the other time, his face is inches from yours, and his nose is brushing against yours. With no words, you lean up to place a soft kiss on his lips, retracting your head to find his fond-filled pupils. He dives back down, planting an equally soft kiss, but this time, you two savor it and hold it for a lot longer.

It’s everything soft, a total contrast to his usual hardcore cocky aura he has plastered on when you’re both in campus. His lips are perfect and pillowy, enough to send you drowning into his embrace, hearts almost tangled together, and like every time you kiss him, there’s the slight tinge of coffee, even when he last drank it 3 hours ago. With a firm lock, the two of you pull away, and you finally seem to call the feelings out.

"I don't think you notice but, this is where it all started. We had our fist kiss here in the back of my old car," you finally realize it, lighting up when the memory refreshes your mind again. Jaemin continues, "Y/n... I know that I like you. A lot. So if you wouldn't mind, maybe you could fall in love with me too?" You almost burst out laughing at his nervous tone, but instead you shake your head slowly. The light in his eyes dim, but glimmer again when you peck to corner of his lips, "I've done that about twenty times, I think it'll be too much for my heart if I do it once again."

The giggle he lets out is pure happiness that causes you to break into laughs as well, your laughs filling the night breeze with love. You don't care at this point, you could fall in love with Jaemin 100 times and it would burst your heart, but that’s the cost of being with Na Jaemin. And plus, you’re pretty sure you can survive heart leaps every 25 minutes if you survive the kisses full of bittersweet coffee.
