That day was perfect, not a cloud in the sapphire sky as Seunghyun walked back to his dorm after a long morning of breifings and talks. he felt like a new person, tall, muscular, and not to mention his hair, dyed the color of his favourite bubblegum flavour, just a way to impress his interviewers and make it to the top. well, his interview wasn't until a few months later...its just that well, Seunghyun liked that color; it was the color of the gum that his gradfather used to give him. just memories, thats all :)

he was staving too, and he only had a few dollars in his pocket and the bustle of the afternoon crowd was starting to arrive. so he walked round the back of the unerversity compound and into a back alley, spotting a quanit little cafe that seemed to stand out with its warm yellow glow on the inside and pale, comforting creamy walls. a cursive sign rested on the top of the glass door and ir read, "Cafe Afterschool." interesting....Seunghyun saw nobody in the cafe though but something dragged him towards it, as if it was his destiny or something.... no matter, he was hungry and coffee sounded nice :)

The 19 year old walked into the cafe slowly, pushing open the glass door gently as the bells by the doorways gave a cute little jingle. the warm, comforting smell of baked goods and coffee wafted past Seunghyun's nose as he took in a deep breath and walked towards the counter where a thin figure stood, shoulders hunched as its back faced the boy, as if it was looking for something. Seunghyun almost steppped back in surprise as the figure spun around suddenly, a wild, crazy smile plastered on the cashier's face as he spoke all briht and cheery,

"Sorry! Welcome to Cafe Afterschool! How may i help you?" 

there was something in that boy's tone that made Seunghyun Swallow and turn red, causing him to stutter out,

"Uhh...Da-dark coffee Withoutcreamplease>~<"

he dipped his head down into his collar that was pulled up against the cold winds of seoul outside, averting his gaze from the attractive boy before him; black eyes, subtle collarbones showing through the sight sidways tug of his cardigan as he ajusted the white frilled apron around his hips and replied,

"sure! wait a moment and Have a seat :D"

Seunghyun's eyes grew wide, thankfully only when the boy spun around to make the coffee and he coughed out a "Yea..Thks" then he gave himself an inward facepalm, stupiiddddddddddd. why the hell did he need to say that?!?!!?!? why did he feel so nervous....  

"here is your coffee..." the boy said to himself rather loudly as he glided over to Seunghyun's table and laid down a mug of coffee and a small dish on which lay a chocolate muffin. 

"urm...so-sorry i didn't order this.." Seunghyun stumbled and looked up at the boy infront of him, eyes darting around nervously. the pink haired boy gave a light hearted giggle and pulled up a chair to sit next to Seunghyun,

"Heehee! i know.."

"Thanks...but I-I don't have enough to pay for it.."

"Don't worry, its on the house! Hi im Jiyong! Nice to meet you, you are new here right?and i love your hair btw, looks like bubblegum :3"

Seunghyun Hid his blushing face behind his cup of coffee and thought, who the hell was this? as the boy held out his hand and smiled, eyes curling in happiness as he waited for Seunghyun to take it.

"Thank you..I-im Seunghyun, yea i just came from tokyo after 19 years there with my gramps...how did u know?"

"Yea you look like someone who is really lost and i know everyone in the area :P Dont worry, you will get used to it."

Seunghyun smiled naturally at the boy and Jiyong saw him do this and stuttered, 

'w-whattt? is something wrong?" Seunghyun watched as the boy touched his face as if trying to wipe something off it and he whispered softly, stil trembling with excietment at the finding of his first new friend, 

"No-no...Its just that you are so friendly...its nice in here>" he tried changing the awkward topic and it worked as jiyong's eyes lit up in tat wild of pure excietment. 

"Ya like it? i designed it myself! i thought i could run a cafe by myself after i finished my classes at XXX university, earn some extra$$ and meet some people, its still on the school compound anyways>"

Seunghyun eyes widened and he almost spit out a mouthful of coffee, he went to the same school as him!

jiyong smiled at his reaction and placed his hand over his mouth to block out the laugh in the cutest way, his teeth biting his lower lip lightly as the pearly whites showed through his lucious ;lips, contrasting with his soft light pink hair as the afternoon sun shone through the glass panes and sparkled on the tips of them. 

"Well....its almost time to open shop, school will be over soon, guess i'd better get back to work..." Jiyong sighed and turned the closed sign to open on the door, causing Seunghyun to mentally slapp himself hard on the face, HE CAME IN WHEN THE SHOP WAS CLOSED

The new kid stood up and Walked up to Jiyong to get to the door, scarlet with embarassment as Jiyong crossed his arms over his chest and said pouting,

"huh? leaving already? guess i'll see you around Bubble-gum~"

he shook his soft, bouncy hair and giggled, throwing a red rag over his shoulder as he walked back tho his place behind the chashier. Seunghyun almost fainted when Jiyong called him that, Bubble-gum...what the hell was that supposed to mean? jeez...that guy was weird as he was adorable. so why was Seunghyun so attracted to him?
