Minseul's relatives streamed in, all greeting one another and casting jisung confused looks. They placed their presents under the tree.

"Is that your boyfriend?"

Minseul choked on her juice and coughed. She shook her head vigorously. Her other cousin that was passing by laughed,

"Of course he isn't her boyfriend, no one would date Minseul after knowing about her weirdness."

Minseul rolled her eyes and pouted.

"Gather around! We're going to play a game!"

Minseul's mother clapped her hands and called the guests as they slowly gathered around the coffee table in the living room.

"We're gonna play a simple game of
truth or dare."

Minseul's mother tried to hide her smile as she held up a bowl of names. She explained the rules of the game and reached in to the glass bowl.

"Minhyung!"

Minhyung groaned as everyone laughed.

"Truth."

"Okay who wants to ask?"

"Me!"

The youngest cousin raised her hand ad Minseul's mother nodded.

"Who's your crush?"

Minhyung blushed bright red as everyone started teasing him.

"Her name is Ryujin, she's from my class..."

Everyone let out "ooo"s as Minhyung pouted and tried to cover his face.

The game carried on. Some were dared to step on snow barefooted, some were dared to go out and scream christmas carols. There were some juicy secrets spilled too.

"Park Jisung!"

The name was unfamiliar to everyone, but there was only one unfamiliar guest invited. Everyone's eyes locked onto Jisung.

"Truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"NO-"

Minseul shouted, but it was too late.

"I dare you to kiss Minseul. On the lips."

Jisung's eyes widened as he gulped, the butterflies in his stomach flapped wildly.

"Must I?"

Everyone nodded in unison.

Jisung got up from the couch and walked over to Minseul. She could sense his hesitation, and that made her feel really bad.

Jisung's eyes stared into hers, he didn't even blink. He leaned closer, and just before their lips touched, he paused. A tear escaped Minseul's eye.

She shoved Jisung as he stumbled backwards. She wiped away the tear.

"WHY ARE YOU MAKING JISUNG DO SOMETHING HE DOESN'T WANT TO DO?"

Minseul shouted, causing the whole room to go silent.

"A kiss is suppose to hold meaning, daring him to kiss me holds no meaning at all. I know you didn't intend for this, but I don't want Jisung to be forced to kiss someone he doesn't like."

She sniffled and wiped away the stray tears.

"Sorry, give me a moment."

Minseul jogged back to her room and slammed the door shut, locking it.

"I'm so sorry Jisung-"

Before Minseul's mother could finish her sentence, Jisung left the living room in the direction Minseul ran to.

He knocked the door once, then twice. He called out her name, but there was no response. He was starting to get worried.

"Kim Minseul! Open up!"

He banged on the door.

Suddenly, he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to see Minseul's mother holding a key. Her eyes held a lot of guilt as she passed it to Jisung without saying anything and walked back to the living room.

He thrusted the key into the keyhole and twisted it as the door clicked open.

"Minseul?"

She was laying on her bed, wrapped in her blanket like a burrito

Jisung closed the door behind him and shoved the key into his pocket. He walked towards Minseul and tapped her lightly as she shifted herself to face Jisung.

Her eyes were puffy and her nose was red. Her cheeks were tear-stained and so was her pillow. Jisung's eyes softened as he used his thumb to wipe away any stray tears.

Suddenly, he leaned in as Minseul's eyes widened. She placed his hands on his shoulders.

"You don't have to do the dare."

"Its not because it's a dare."

Their lips connected for a split second, it was enough to send Minseul's heart racing.

"Does this make my feelings clear?"

Jisung noticed Minseul's red cheeks and poked them, giggling. Minseul pouted.

Jisung engulfed his cute blanket burrito in a hug and gave her a small peck on the forehead.

"I love you, Minseul."

"Love you too. "

"EW CRINGE."

"Oh my gosh- MINHYUNG!"
