It's amazing how someone just walks into your life one day

Kibum can’t do this. He’s still in his underwear in front of the mirror, mountain of clothes spread across their bed behind him and he’s panicking because he has nothing to wear and he’s going to meet his second soulmate and explain it all.

Jinki peeks inside the bedroom and raises an eyebrow. Kibum wants to throw a pillow after him for being so good-looking in his simple turquoise shirt and jeans. Instead, he opts for whining.

“I can’t find anything to wear,” he says. Jinki reaches a hand out for Kibum who takes it and immediately snuggles closer to his chest.

“You worry too much. You’re going to look fabulous.” Jinki lets go of him before he smiles a little. “I’m not going to make suggestions because you’re going to hate me for my horrible fashion sense but I know you’ll come up with something.”

He presses a gentle kiss to Kibum’s temple before he leaves him in the bedroom again and Kibum turns around to stare at his wardrobe again.

In the end, he settles on a pair of black skinny jeans and a pale pink shirt. Jinki sends him a thumbs-up from the kitchen when he enters and Kibum almost regrets his outfit because damn, he looks almost like Jinki.

He doesn’t get to turn around, though, because Jinki grabs his shoulders and steers him towards the kitchen table and sits him down in a chair.

“Relax,” Jinki says and Kibum glares at him. He can’t relax. It’s not Jinki who is going to meet a second soulmate. Well, not technically anyway, because Kibum is definitely dragging Jinki with him to the café where he’s meeting the other.

Jinki places his breakfast in front of him and Kibum notices the golden band on his ring finger.

“Why are you wearing your engagement ring?” he asks. Jinki usually doesn’t wear it when he cooks because it's unsanitary and Kibum doesn’t mind. It’s not like he wears his when he's in surgery either. Seeing Jinki cooking pancakes with the ring makes Kibum suspect he’s not completely fond of this entire meeting either.

Jinki blushes.

“It’s Saturday,” he says and Kibum smiles. It’s obvious it’s more than that but Kibum doesn’t pry.
   

and suddenly you can't remember how you lived without them

I'm proud of this story, even if it isn't action-packed and doesn't contain a lot of mental stress. It's one of my first attempts at writing SHINee in a longer story than a oneshot and the characters are really really dear to me. 

The playlist was used while writing the story. Hopefully it gives a feeling of the mood this story should very much have.  

Anyway, yes, I'm really fond of Âmes Soeurs. You can always ask questions if you're curious about anything. I don't bite. 

Comments are welcome and appreciated.
