The Mall and the Perfect Gift

Through Thick and Thin [Summer Heat Pre-Quel]

..."Well, what do you wanna do now?" Wooyoung asked as Junho left

"Hmm..." Nichkhun thought... "Let's go shopping!" Nichkhun squealed in excitement as they exited the cafe

This was Nichkhun's way of using their first date to get an idea of what to get Wooyoung for his birthday, since it was coming soon...

---------

The mall wasn't big, but it had enough stores to spend the rest of the day there. At every store, whether completely weird looking or completely-out-of-my-budget looking store, they would go in, and give each other ridiculous outfits. Apparently, Nichkhun enjoys doing this even when alone sometimes, just because he has nothing better to do.

Even though they were having fun, Nichkhun stayed focused on what he came to do, find Wooyoung's birthday gift. Not only did he have to find an amazing gift, he had to find something to show Wooyoung that he truly appreciated him and truly loved him. Also to top it off, he's been giving him pretty damn good gifts for the past years being best friends and all, and now that they're boyfriends, he has to do even better than usual.

Then, he suddenly remembered;

*flash back*

"Man, I wish I had that necklace!" Wooyoung pouted and sighed at the same time while pointing at the pair of necklaces on display. It wasn't just a necklace, it was a couple necklace, an infinity sign to be exact. 

"Wooyoung, you can't have that, it's part of a couple necklace, you don't have anyone else to share it with..." Nichkhun face palmed at Wooyoung's stupid remark

"Pfft, I could just... wear them both!" Wooyoung fought back

"Aish! Seriously, when you find someone special then you can get those! Now let's go!" Nichkhun dragged Wooyoung from the display, making a screeching sound as Wooyoung's face stayed on the counter looking at the pair or necklace.

"When I find someone special, I really hope we can get something like that. It would be the perfect gift! I mean, what's better than showing love to each other by showing how uch they love each other to everyone else!" Wooyoung proclaimed after he settled out from being dragged out from the store so harsly

*end flash back*

"What great memory I have!" Nichkhun thought to himself as he smirked at the flashback, making Wooyoung stare at him weirdly. 

It was perfect. Nichkhun now remembers where to get it, and remembers the necklaces still being on display at the store right by their appartment. Nothing could go wrong now, he had the perfect gift, the perfect boyfriend, and then perfect time to have fun at the mall. Since all his worries were now gone, he could just have fun at the mall.

Nothing much is really happening now. They've gone through almost all the countless stores in the small mall, and have probably tried on the weirdest clothes there are in the world, but it has been fun. Both of them enjoyed the day just because they have company of each other. 

--------

After a long day of shopping and walking, Wooyoung and Nichkhun finally arrived at their house. They were both pretty exhausted, but the day was well spent with each other. Can't get any better that. Wooyoung washed up and went straight off to bed, but Nichkhun being the sneaky weirdo he is, went to the store nearby just so he could get Wooyoung's gift ready.

--------

"Excuse me! Um... last week I saw those necklaces that made an infinity sign, do you by any chance have them? I don't see them on display anymore..." Nichkhun asked with a worried tone, praying for them to have the "perfect" gift for Wooyoung

"Oh, I'm so sorry! We just sold the last pair to the sir over there! I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but if you wou-" the lady at the counter explained, but was intrrupted by Nichkhun suddenly leaving to the man who bought the necklaces

"Excuse me! Sir!" Nichkhun desperately yelled while waving his hand

When he finally caught up to the man he begged him, "I know you just bought the necklaces, but, can I please buy them off of you?" Nichkhun raised his eyebrows and made a half pout face to get the attention of the man

"Aish, get lost! I bought these for my girlfriend and I! Get your own!" the man pushed Nichkhun aside, and began to walk

"Look sir, I really need those!" he pointed at the box in the bag, "I need them for someone truly special to me! Just- Please! I'll give you anything, I just need the necklaces!" Nichkhun begged some more in hopes for a good response

The man sighed, it looked like he was contemplating actually selling the necklaces to Nichkhun.

"Fine." the man said, making Nichkhun smile so wide, it went form one eye to the other, "that'll be $600 cash." the man proclaimed. Nichkhun's eyes widened in surprise on such a high cost.

"Seriously?!" Nichkhun yelled at the man. He definitely remembers seeing the necklaces being sold for $300

"Well you want them that bad, pay up!" the man rudely said, gesturing his hands to give him the money.

Nichkhun took the wallet out of his pocket and opened it. $600.... he counted. That was almost all his money he cashed out this morning to buy everything needed to celebrate Wooyoung's birthday. He took the $600 out, leaving him with only $50 and he scrunched it in his hand tightly thinking hard about sealing this deal. Wooyoung was very important to him, so he decided that I was worth it. He sighed and gave the man the money. He grabbed the bag kept telling himself, "It's all for Wooyoung."

He went home happy at his success of finding the perfect gift, but was quite bummed that he had used almost all his money on the gift. But it was all worth it because it would make Wooyoung happy, he kept thinking. He hid the gift inside his personal stuff, and snuggled into their bed and went to get a goodnight's sleep

When you're in love everything would falls into place. Just like Khun and Woo. And finally they're admitting that they are in a relationship. I'm so happy for them.

@mht0810 U're doing a good job in writing this. I really like it. In fact i'm looking forward to the next chapter. I also hoping them to do something naughty but as u said there would be no mature content so i understand. Beside i can read the sequel (Summer Heat). :)
