[:]prince!jenohopes it’s you at the door when he’s dragged out of his thoughts by multiple knocks on the door.
unfortunately, for him, it’s the duke lee haechan with the same mischievous smile on his face.
“happy birthday, prince lee,” haechan practically invites himself into jeno’schambers.
jeno dismisses the birthday greet from haechan, feeling even more grumpy than before from his disappointment at haechan’s arrival, “what do you want?”
haechan pokes his tongue through his cheek and rolls his eyes and the boys attitude, “i knew you’d be like this. put something nice on and meet me downstairs. there’s a surprise waiting for you.”
a few moments later, jeno meets haechan downstairs and soon follows him to a carriage.
“where the hell are you taking me?” jenoasks.
“to a forest to kill you on your 21st birthday,” haechan smiles. “stop asking questions and just wait.”
jeno rolls his eyes and steps into the carriage, fingers tapping nervously at his thigh. he wonders if you’re on your way to his castle already, and a small part of him wants to return to his chambers and wait for you but he’s been waiting since the clock struck midnight and all jeno received from you was a letter. he believed he had every right to go to wherever the hell haechan was taking him and you could most certainly wait.
much to his surprise, haechan leads him to somewhere rather beautiful. there’s a soft blanket spread on the emerald green grass and atop it lays a birthday cake and some food for a picnic.
it seems much too romantic for haechan to have prepared. jaemin maybe, haechan would never.
“lee haechan, what exactly are you playing at?” jeno looks towards his friend to see him nodding his head over jeno’sshoulder.
jeno turns and sees you standing, a basket in your hand. you’re wearing your prettiest outfit and you stare at jeno with a humongous smile on your face.
“you didn’t think i’d miss your birthday, did you?”
