byulyi:

December

This one is for @the-woundupbird and @ill-cypher who both requested some Moonsun on a snowy winter day. It’s a bit silly, but I hope you like it!

Byulyi didn’t really know what to do with herself when one night at 3am an overexcited Yongsun was standing in front of her door, looking like a child on Christmas.

“It’s happening!” She exclaimed when a tired Byulyi kept looking at her like she was expecting to wake up from a dream any minute.

“What is.. happening? In the middle of the night?” She then managed to say and finally stepped aside so the leader could step into her apartment.

Yongsun grinned at her and nodded a few times, like she was expecting her to be able to read her mind.

“Unnie, please just tell me what’s happening because I want to go back to sleep. We only got home from our last schedule like two hours ago,” Byulyi whined, followed by a loud yawn. “Didn’t you complain how tired you were all the way back?”

“Yes, but that doesn’t matter anymore,” Yongsun said in her wise leader voice. “It's… finally snowing!”

Byulyi grumbled and let herself fall down onto her couch. “I thought you looked a little wet.”

Then suddenly Yongsun’s wide smile turned into a frown and she looked down at the rapper as she kicked her a little bit into her shin.

“Hey!”

“Come on, get up and get dressed. I want to go and see the snow with you.”

But Byulyi, who was getting angrier with every passing minute, just shook her head and got up again. “Unnie, I am really tired and in a bad mood, so please just go home or sleep here if you want to, but I am not going to leave this apartment for the next ten hours at least.”

The younger realized her mistake the second Yongsun simply huffed out a “fine” and disappeared through the door.

Byulyi was up on her legs before she even knew what she was doing. With bare feet and only her light sleep clothes on she ran into the hallway and managed to get a hold of Yongsun’s arm just before she stepped into the elevator.

Yongsun turned around and glared at her, a hint of tears in her eyes.

“I’m sorry, Yong. I know how much this means to you and I shouldn’t have reacted like that. I mean it became kind of our tradition to go out for a late-night walk after the first snowfall, right?”

This changed Yongsun’s mood rather quick again and she offered Byulyi a smile.

“I am sorry too. I shouldn’t have barged into your apartment like that in the middle of the night. Sometimes I forget that texting is an option as well.”

About fifteen minutes later a still very tired Byulyi was dressed in winter clothes and the two of them were making their way to the elevator once more.

I want to go see the snow with you.

This sentence kept repeating inside of the rapper’s mind. Yongsun loved the snow, and she loved her enough that she wanted to share this special thing with her.

And Byulyi had to admit, it was always nice to take late-night walks with Yongsun. There were barely any people around and they could move around at their own pace and share what was on their minds.

As soon as they stepped into the cold Yongsun took a hold of Byulyi’s arm.

Hyejin and Wheein had titled it as funny that their Unnie would become so clingy once they were in private, but Byulyi knew that as the leader of their group Yongsun always felt a certain pressure lying on herself.

Sure, over the past year Yongsun had started worrying less about what people would think of her and her actions. She had become way more confident and surer of who she was and what she wanted in life, but some things could only change slowly.

This development had reflected onto Byulyi’s and her relationship as well, and by now they were in perfect harmony with each other and their feelings.

It had been a long road for both of them with a lot of tears, and they knew that one day they would dare to speak up and could lose a lot of things along the way, but for now it was perfect the way it was.

They were happy that they got to share all their growth and achievements with the person they wanted to spend the rest of their lives with.

“That’s really a lot of snow for only a few hours,” Byulyi remarked quietly after they had walked a few minutes in silence. “It’s really beautiful.”

Yongsun hummed her agreement and pressed herself closer to Byulyi in an attempt to get rid of the cold a bit.

When they entered a nearby park Byulyi’s inner child broke free without her being able to do anything about it.

She let go of Yongsun’s arm and ran a few meters where she leaned down to pick up some of the snow. Yongsun already knew that her girlfriend was up to no good by the grin she was wearing on her face, but she played the stern leader card anyway.

“What are you doing?”

“I am making a snowball,” Byulyi stated as she formed the snow between her gloved hands.

“If you even think of throwing this thing into my direction, I will end you!” Yongsun grumbled but Byulyi knew exactly that most of the time her threats were simply hot air.

Moments later the snowball hit her right in the face and her girlfriend was laughing loudly and full of malice.

“Oh, Moon Byulyi. It’s on.”

Minutes later the couple was running around forming and throwing snowballs, screaming way too loud considering the time.

“Just give up!” Yongsun called as she went to hide behind a tree.

“No! You are going to buy me food when I win!”

“Why is it always about food with you?”

Byulyi, who had five snowballs in her arms stopped for a moment to think. “Well, what do you want if you happen to win?”

Yongsun’s answer surprised her a little, but it also made her heart jump.

“I want a kiss,” the singer replied and moved away from behind the tree again.

“A kiss?”

“Yes, a kiss. From you.” Yongsun rolled her eyes at Byulyi’s mildly shocked face and threw a snowball right in it. “Don’t act like this is the first time I am asking for that!”

Byulyi swiped the snow off her face and went to repay the favor.

“I am tempted to lose on purpose now,” she said. “But I love winning so prepare your money for a trip to an expensive restaurant tonight!”

What Byulyi didn’t expect was that Yongsun would play dirty to get what she wanted.

When they were both already completely exhausted and their gloves completely soaked Byulyi stopped for a moment to take them off, but her girlfriend took her chance and dumped an excessive load of snow over her head.

Byulyi shrieked, stumbled around a bit and in the end, she landed flat on her butt.

“Yongsun!” She whined as the older only stood there, laughing her shrill dolphin laugh.

“Do you admit your defeat?”

For a moment Byulyi grumbled a few words Yongsun couldn’t quite understand, but in the end she nodded. “Fine. You win. Now help me up.”

Dutiful the leader went and pulled Byulyi up. “Okay, maybe I was being a little unfair,” she admitted as she helped with brushing the snow off of her girlfriend.

“Maybe,” Byulyi mocked her. “If I get sick because of this I am going to annoy you 24/7.”

“That’s fair. Now come on, let’s go back to your place so we can both take a shower and put on some warm clothes.”

The tired and now freezing couple slowly started making their way to Byulyi’s apartment, both feeling like they would drop dead any minute.

Later, when both had taken their respective showers and they were both dressed in warm sleepwear, Byulyi was dozing off the second her head touched the pillow.

This got interrupted though when suddenly her blanket got lifted and Yongsun slipped from her own under hers. She felt her girlfriend’s arms wrapping carefully around her, and her head coming to a rest on her chest.

“Thank you for going out with me.”

Byulyi opened her eyes and turned her head a little so she could at least somewhat see Yongsun’s face in the darkness of her bedroom.

“You don’t have to thank me. You know I like doing things with you, even if it’s in the middle of the night.”

Yongsun smiled and took one of Byulyi’s hand into hers before silence settled in again for a while.

“Hey, Yong?” The younger started after a few minutes. She was actually way too excited by now. Having her girlfriend this close always sent her heart doing jumps. “Do you still want your reward for defeating me?”

“Yes please.” Yongsun replied in an unusual low voice. She shuffled up a little, so she was facing her girlfriend, their fingers still tightly entwined.

Byulyi placed her other hand on Yongsun’s cheek and slowly leaned closer until she was able to feel the other woman’s breath on her face.

“I love you.”

The younger had whispered these words before she closed the last bit of distance between them and placed her lips on Yongsun’s.

The kiss was short and sweet and somehow both felt reminded of their first kiss, years ago. However, this one didn’t end with Yongsun running away and Byulyi questioning whether or not she could ever face her again, but with them smiling widely and their hearts beating in unison.

“I love you too.”
