Ryujin had no idea how she managed to concentrate on playing the guitar when all she could think about was Yeji. It didn't completely hit her until the curtain rose and everyone started applauding. Then Ryujin found herself smiling the rest of night.

Yeji kissed her. She actually kissed her.

She smiled again thinking of it. Ryujin thought she must have looked incredibly creepy, smiling so big while playing the guitar and was glad that she sat in the back and the audience could barely see her.

Ryujin tried to glance at Yeji during the concert but it was hard because the piano was in the front corner. The only part of Yeji she saw was her head so she couldn't make any eye contact. She couldn't wait until they had an intermission or something. She wanted to return that kiss tenfold.

The first set finally ended after five songs and it was the glee club's turn to perform by themselves a cappella. The rest of the band went backstage and waited around. Ryujin tried to find Yeji through the darkness but didn't have to wait long when she felt someone grab her hand and led them to a couch in the corner.

It was hard to hold a conversation back there because no one could actually talk. Whispering was kept to a minimum because it still carried to the actual stage. Mostly people just took off their shoes and fooled around silently.

Ryujin was about to open her mouth to speak once she and Yeji had sat down but Yeji put a finger to her mouth.

She took out her cell phone and started pressing the keyboard and showed Ryujin. The light from the phone gave their faces a bluish glow.

Mr. T said he'd fail the class if it were noisy.

Ryujin mouthed an "oh" and then took out her own cell phone. She felt kind of ridiculous having a conversation with someone via texting when Yeji was sitting right next to her.

Ryujin showed her the phone. You kissed me :)

Yeji's face was an emoticon itself when she read it.

I did. Whatcha gonna do about it?

She turned to face Ryujin and smirked. She could barely make out Ryujin's face with the little light they had.

But Ryujin went back to her phone.

Hmm, I dunno know yet. Does that mean you like me?

Yeji rolled her eyes and fired back a response.

I dunno yet. ;)

Still think I'm an arrogant toerag? :P

Yes.

Ryujin let out a soundless faux gasp and Yeji stifled a giggle. She texted another response.

But I like your non arrogant side. The soft marshmallow side :D.

Yeji leaned over and gave her a kiss on the cheek and felt the corners of Ryujin's mouth turn up into a smile.

Marshmallow huh? Like a Peep?

Her cheek burned from the kiss and it took a lot of strength not to push Yeji down on the couch and kiss her the way she wanted.

Yup. The pink bunnies. You're one big walking talking marshmallow peep!

Ryujin grinned at Yeji's response. The girl had no idea how exactly adorable she was. She took a few seconds before texting back a response.

Does that mean you want to eat me?

Yeji pinched Ryujin on the side (which made her jump) when she read that.

Get your mind outta the gutter Shin.
