Work Text:
Wonwoo has always wondered how it feels to be known and loved. Like your partner knowing that you don't eat onions and garlic so he makes himself used to separating those before giving your food. Or when he knows that you don't like the texture of chicken skin when it's not fried so he makes himself get used to ordering you chicken breast (without the skin if its not fried).
Wonwoo used to wondered but now, infront of him is his boyfriend in its six foot glory, separating onions on his sisig.
"Love, eat this first.." he said as he put the onionless sisig on his plate. The older man smiled at him and ate happily. He don't have to do it himself anymore.
Don't get Wonwoo wrong, he can do it himself. It's tiring but for his taste buds' satisfaction, he'll do it. But when Mingyu knew about this, he used to nagged Wonwoo why he wouldn't eat it.
Wonwoo remembered what he answered the younger before, "Doesn't mean you like it, I'll also get myself to like it."
Mingyu laughed and kissed him "Of course not, just curious with your.. taste buds. But! I'll do it for you. Mingyu Kim at your service to separate onion and garlic from whatever we are eating!" he said smiling.
"or we could just ask them to not put any?" the older said and laughed.
"Thank you, love.." Wonwoo said with a small laugh.
Mingyu looked at him and smiled, "Anything for you."
Or when..
"You don't like mushrooms too?" shock was evident on the younger's face as he saw Wonwoo pick out the mushroom on his pizza.
They were at this party after concert and for some reason, they can't order for themselves so he had to pull out every mushroom on his piece and Mingyu watch him as he does.
"I don't like the texture, its weird." he said and munch to his food.
"He really doesn't!" Soonyoung joined the conversation. "He also don't like carbonara, just learned about it last week!"
Mingyu looked at him with disbelief. "I can't believe I'm dating you.." he said. Wonwoo glared at him so he ended up hugging the older man sideways. "But I love you, so all the onions and mushrooms and garlics and chicken skins in the world can fuck themselves."
Wonwoo laughed at him. The rest of the night was just Wonwoo talking to the members without paying attention to his pizza anymore because Mingyu picks it out for him. He tapped the younger's thigh three times and smiled at him. Mingyu leaned and kissed his temple before giving him his fourth pizza for the night.
Or when..
They were running late so they had to drive thru for their breakfast. Of course they ordered the breakfast meals and well.. it's too garlic-ky for Wonwoo's liking as the younger remembers.
"Ah also, can I get an extra plain rice? that would be all, thanks."
Wonwoo's eyebrow furrowed in confusion. "Why?"
"Ah their breakfast meals' rice is fried with garlic." Mingyu said like it was a nature to him to not put garlic and Wonwoo in the same sentence.
The older smiled. They talked while waiting for their order. When it came, Wonwoo noticed the iced tea, and he knows that Mingyu drinks it but not in the morning.
"Miss? we didn't order iced tea." Mingyu said as he recieved their other orders.
"We don't have any drinks available yet but iced tea sir, sorry." the lady smiled.
"Oh, we'll just take it then. Thanks." he said and helped Wonwoo placed their food comfortably in the back seat.
"We'll just drink water then," Mingyu said as he maneuver the car to their company.
"How did you know.." Wonwoo silently ask.
"Of course I know how much you love coke. So when its not available you always go with water if all they could offer is iced tea."
Again, you're right. He doesn't drink iced tea, he never told anyone about this though as he remembers. It's not that important anyway. But to Mingyu, it probably was.
"Alright. Thank you for noticing. I never told anyone about my hatred to iced tea.." he laughed.
"Oh they're itchy on your throat when you drink it, aren't they."
And the conversation continued until they arrived at the company.
Or when..
"Should I get you blueberry cheesecake?" Mingyu asked.
The older nooded with excitement at the mention of his favorite food. Mingyu chuckled and leaned in to kissed him before going out of the car to get their dessert.
They are on their way home but Wonwoo suddenly want something sweet and since Mingyu needed caffeine in his system, they went for it.
Soon after, Mingyu arrived but to his dismay, cheesecake wasn't available.
"I'm sorry baby but the guy in front of me got the last slice.." he said and kissed Wonwoo.
He pout but quick to console his boyfriend. "It's okay, what did you get me?"
"I got only once slice of chocolate cake. I know its too sweet for you so I only got one. I can have the rest after. Also, they don't have anything left aside from carrot cake so.."
Wonwoo smiled and pulled him for a kiss. "Good decision. I love you."
Mingyu laughed. "Mingyu Kim at your service, sir."
And just like that, he feels the love. Not only because he can enjoy his food, but also because he knows and comfortable enough that his boyfriend will give him only what he wants.
They are now cuddled up on their bed, Wonwoo using his boyfriend's chest as pillow as he played wih their hands.
"Thank you for being so attentive to me. I love you." he said and he brush his fingertips from the younger's wrist until they intertwined their fingers.
"I love you." the younger only answered. Wonwoo felt three soft kisses on head so he brought Mingyu's hand to his lips and gave three kisses.
Wonwoo sighed and hugged the younger. His heart is contented. He wouldn't have this any other way.
