Hyukjae looked like a smiling idiot as he opened the front door to his house; not believing that not only did he had just kissed and confessed to Donghae, but the latter seemed to have the same feelings for him. He giggled like a lovesick fanboy and entered the house.

              He immediately rushed upstairs to his sister's room, "Sora!" He screamed and jumped onto her bed. Sora rolled her eyes, "What? Did you get a passing grade in English?" Hyukjae grimaced and shook his head, "Even better." She gave him a single uninterested glance before typing on her keyboard again, seeming to be having a chat with someone.

               The redhead glared at her but smiled happily anyway, "I kissed someone a while ago." He bragged. Sora blinked and looked up, "Really? You haven't kissed anyone since Junior High, when you got rejected by that girl and-" She was interrupted by Hyukjae covering with his palms, "Okay, okay- Shut up!"

               She giggled and gave him a goofy smile, "Well, who's the poor girl?" Hyukjae stared at her skeptically, "Uh, you do know I'm gay, right?" Sora giggled once more, "Yeah, I was just making sure. So who's the poor dude?" He huffed and playfully hit her shoulder, "Hey! He asked me to kiss him!" Sora seemed to be more and more interested and scooted closer to him, "Do continue." She whispered.

              Hyukjae chuckled before grinning madly, "His name is Donghae, and damn, you would never even guess how utterly gorgeous he is, and he has those beautiful mesmerizing eyes, and plays the piano, and- and his ! His glorious !" Sora laughed and pinched him so that he could snap out of his trance, "Too much information, Hyukkie."

                He just grinned at her, stood up and ruffled her hair, "Well then. I'll be leaving now to drown in my own happiness and fluffiness- and, well, also study for my test tomorrow." She waved her hand and giggled, "Have fun, then."

-----------------------------

                  Heechul was still cackling maniacally since ten minutes ago, when Donghae had told them that had happened the other day. Siwon and the smaller boy just narrowed their eyes at their Hyung, "Chullie~ Stop it!~" Donghae used his ability of acting somewhat cute in front of Heechul to stop the annoying fit of laughter.

                   The feminine boy's laughs immediately died down and he cooed, "My baby is so adorable." Donghae just batted his eyelashes and laughed. Siwon, however, seemed to be spacing off, "Where's Kyu? It's weird that he's still not here; he's never late to coming." Donghae looked a bit thoughtful, "Yeah. Strange of him…"

                 A few minutes later, came a smirking brunette with an adorable bouncing Sungmin next to him. Heechul snorted at the sight and the other two friends were laughing like there was no tomorrow, "Hi!" Sungmin greeted cutely.

                 Kyuhyun cleared his throat and his smirk on grew wider, "Do you want me to walk you to class, Minbunny?" The older boy just shook his head, "It's okay, Kyubear. Bye!" And with that, he walked away, leaving Kyuhyun alone with his three gaping Hyungs.

                  Siwon just stared at him, "Minbunny?" Donghae kept on gaping like a fish, "K-Kyubear?" And with that, all three of them erupted in a fit of giggles and laughter. Kyuhyun didn't seem fazed at all, however. He just took a seat next to the snickering Heechul and sighed, "That kid is just too adorable." He said dreamily.

                 Heechul laughed loudly, "Who is? Minbunny?" All three of them laughed even louder than before to the point where their faces turned red and they were clutching onto their aching stomachs. Kyuhyun grinned, "Yeah. And he thinks I'm handsome." Donghae's laughter had finally stopped, "Didn't you guys meet like, yesterday?"

                Kyuhyun shrugged, "Well, yeah, but Sungmin wants us to be friends right now. And by the way, I'm planning to capture his heart in no time." He grinned childishly. Siwon ruffled the younger's hair and chuckled, "Our baby is growing up so quickly."

-----------------------------------

                 "Hey." Donghae tried not to stutter as cheeks turned into a light shade of pink. Hyukjae's heart started racing as he looked up at the other, "H-Hi." The orange-haired boy swallowed, "So…" He immediately trailed off and looked away, feeling his face burn more and more by the second.

                 The redhead rubbed his nape awkwardly, "You still remember our k-kiss, right?" Donghae shot his head up and narrowed his eyes, "Of course I do, you dummy." Hyukjae bit his lip, "U-Um, so like, what now?" He asked stupidly, making a huge blush creep its way to the younger's cheeks once more.  

                "You said you liked me, right? Well, I like you too, for some reason. So doesn't that make us together now?" He managed to say in one breath. Hyukjae stared at him as his own face started to heat up, "So we're together now?" Donghae swallowed, "Aren't we?" They just sat there in awkward silence, simply staring at each other. Donghae was getting all the more impatient, "Oh for god's sake. We're officially a couple now, okay? I mean we already kissed and confessed and all."

                 Hyukjae felt himself melt at that, and a small genuine smile crossed his lips, "Yeah, that sounds right." Donghae palmed his cheeks in a futile attempt to hide his blush from the redhead. Hyukjae's smile only grew wider before blurting out, "You're adorable."  

                Class went by really slow and the two couldn't focus one bit. They kept on staring at each other and letting out shy smiles occasionally. When the lecture finally ended, Hyukjae sighed in relief and stood up. Donghae did the same and walked over to him with a cute toothy smile, "It's our break time. Do you leave the gates or stay in the cafeteria?" He asked.

                  Hyukjae couldn't help but smile back, "I stay in the lunch cafeteria with my friend, Hyoyeon." Donghae nodded, "Would you two like to sit with me and my friends, then?" He asked barely above a whisper. The redhead gave his best gummy smile which had Donghae's heart racing and nodded quickly.

                 The two walked to the huge cafeteria and Hyukjae immediately spotted Hyoyeon sitting alone with her head on the lunch table. The redhead smiled, "Just a sec, I'll go call her." He told the younger and went over to shake the blonde, "Hyo, we're sitting with Donghae, come on." She sat up and giggled, "Oh, you lovebirds." Hyukjae punched her shoulder lightly, "Shut up." He had told her about them getting together the day before in one of their chatrooms, and Hyoyeon kept on teasing him after that.

                   They walked over to Donghae who was standing awkwardly and waiting for them. Hyoyeon rushed to the boy and ruffled his hair, "Hi there." Donghae stared at her disbelievingly. How could she act like she hadn't tried to practically Hyukjae the other day? Donghae grimaced and the three walked over to Heechul, Kyuhyun and Siwon.

                When Donghae noticed that Sungmin was there too, he let out a huge smirk and pulled two more chairs from an empty table for Hyukjae and Hyoyeon, "Hey, guys." Heechul did his infamous smirk, "Well, hello there, Hyukjae." The redhead gulped and bowed just slightly, "Hey."

                Hyoyeon bit back a snicker and took a seat next to Heechul since he seemed like a fun person. Donghae sat down next to Hyukjae and just stared at their big group with a small smile. However, it seemed that Kyuhyun and Sungmin were in their own little world, chatting and giggling with one another, not noticing that three other people joined them. Hyoyeon casually ran a hand through her silky blonde locks, "So, Hyukjae. How are you and Donghae doing? I mean, since you're official now and all." She teased.

                  Donghae blushed and unconsciously clung to Hyukjae's arm. The redhead glared at her and scooted closer to the younger. Heechul scoffed, "Seriously, you're acting like you've been together for years now." Hyoyeon laughed at that and Heechul just smirked at her. Donghae mumbled something incoherent under his breath before whining, "Chullie Hyung!" Heechul and Hyoyeon laughed and even fist-pumped. Hyukjae gulped. Oh no, this isn't good. I sense an upcoming friendship between these two. We're all going to die.

                 Desperately trying to change the subject, Donghae looked over at the uncharacteristically quiet Siwon and frowned, "Wonnie? Why aren't you saying anything? It's unlikely of you." Siwon didn't respond and just gestured the smaller boy to be quiet and closed his eyes. Donghae stared at him for a while, "Oh, okay. Sorry for disturbing you."

                  Hyukjae raised an eyebrow at Donghae in question. The younger giggled, "Look at his hand." Hyukjae did as he was told and saw that Siwon was clutching onto a cross necklace, "He's praying." Donghae stated, barely above a whisper, and Hyukjae could only nod in understanding.

                 Soon the atmosphere between the group had gotten more comfortable, less awkward, and more quiet. Heechul and Hyoyeon were chatting happily and occasionally teasing the two, Kyuhyun and Sungmin were still in their own world, and Siwon was still praying silently (It looked more as though he was sleeping). Hyukjae was taking a sip of his coffee when he felt Donghae's head drop on his shoulder.

                   He glanced at the younger, who was already dozing off and snuggling closer to Hyukjae warmth, looking absolutely endearing in the process. The redhead smile at that, but couldn't help but wonder why Donghae slept a lot in his free time. All he knew is that he was obviously not getting enough sleep at home. Hyukjae finished his cup of coffee while Donghae's soft hair, oblivious to the knowing smirks Hyoyeon and Heechul sent them.
