"remember that dumb pact we made when we were little stating that we'd marry each other if we're single by like thirty?"
riley fought back a laugh , rolling her eyes as she straightened from her little kick of desperation to the machine. her cheeks burned with embarrassment , but his easygoing attitude made it all feel a little less mortifying. " oh , yeah , the 'kick it till it works' strategy has been my go-to forever , " she said with a grin , her gaze flicking from his tumbler back to him. " i usually try to be a little more graceful, but apparently, today’s not that day. " she exhaled , watching the machine stubbornly refuse to cooperate. " maybe i’ve unlocked a new skill. maybe i should just start kicking everything that frustrates me , " she added with a sideways glance. " kick my way to a better day — could be my new philosophy. " when he suggested going for real food, riley tilted her head slightly , a smirk still on her lips. " is this your move with everyone who runs into you ? ask them out for lunch ? " she raised an eyebrow , the vibe between them feeling much more natural now. " but hey, since i knocked your water over and this thing is useless, i’d feel terrible letting you go without getting something in your system. you wanna lead the way ? "
felix was equal parts entertained and impressed as the blonde aimed a swift kick at the vending machine, the force of it making the whole thing shudder but refusing to free a single snack. "damn, okay. wasn’t expecting the brute force method, but maybe violence is the answer," he teased, gaze shifting from the machine to her, like he was trying to decide which one was more stubborn. "so, is this your usual strategy for life? just... kick things until they work? because truth be told, i’m both a little concerned and kinda into it." he looked back at the machine, as if willing it to spit something out just to save them both from further embarrassment. no luck. his tumbler was still rolling somewhere behind them, but he had momentarily abandoned the idea of retrieving it. a hand raked through his hair as he shot her a lazy grin. "alright, maybe we should accept defeat and go get some real food like normal, functioning adults."

céleste watched the smoothie with a blend of amused affection and gentle exasperation. there he was, caught in the middle of his own earnest experiment—blue eyes crinkling mischievously above the cutting board as he offered it with that familiar, irreverent grin. she couldn’t help but marvel at the effort behind it, especially since he was up at this hour, and there she was, clad in her gym outfit. "well," she mused silently, "maybe this is the magic that helps me push through that final rep." as she moved around the counter, her heart skipped a beat—not just at the sight of him, but at the way he seemed to notice even the tiniest details. with a soft smile, she leaned in and pressed a tender kiss to his cheek. "why thank you baby," she murmured.

maybe some of her antics had rubbed off on him because he was caught in the middle of making her a protein smoothie, which he knew wouldn't taste up to par. "hey, babe." blue eyes peek up at her from the cutting board. "figured you could take this to the gym with you."
