Friday was an odd day. On Thursday night, Woohyun had fallen asleep almost instantly once going to bed, much to the dismay of Key who called him seven times that night but was ignored. The next morning Woohyun called him back but was hardly very helpful at all.

“What was that text about?!!” Key demanded. Woohyun shrugged, a response that is even less helpful over the phone than it is in person.

“NAM WOOHYUN TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON!”

“I don’t know…” Woohyun honestly didn’t, he was now sure the whole thing had been a dream, but the fact that he had texted Key before going to sleep proved otherwise. “I think it was a dream…”

“We’ve gone through this eight times, it doesn’t make sense, you texted me BEFORE you fell asleep!”

“I know but it just…it couldn’t be real…”

On the other end of the phone, Key made an extremely exasperated noise. “Okay, say it was a dream, will you at least tell WHAT IT WAS ABOUT?!”

It was only nine am and Woohyun thought it was far too early for Key to be shouting this much but he didn’t dare say that to him.

Instead he took a deep breath.

“I was staring out the window and Sunggyu came in and asked me if the sky was pretty and I didn’t really say anything and he walked over to me and then he said he was going to kiss me and he did and then he left-“

“Woah woah woah!” Key interrupted, “you’re telling this story at a million miles per hour! Hold up!”

Woohyun huffed, “one second you’re screaming at me to just tell you the damn story and the next there’s requirements to how to tell it?! Man you’re fussy!” Woohyun was half joking but he mostly just wanted to get the story over with; the more he told it, the stupider and more unlikely it seemed.

“Hey! You just said he KISSED you and then LEFT! Like I’m going to just let that slide!” Key argued back. Woohyun rolled his eyes, unbeknownst to Key.

“Just let me FINISH it and then you can make all the comments you want, okay?!”

Key huffed but then agreed.

“Okay, so he left and I was going to run for it but then he came back and he apologised for shocking me and asked if he could explain himself and I said yes and he told me the reason he hadn’t been talking to me much, other than being busy, was because he was trying to work out if he had feelings for me and then he said he had been 99% sure and now he was a hundred percent sure and he told me he likes me romantically and said if I felt the same way to meet him in the lounge room at nine am on Saturday morning and that he’d wait fifteen minutes and if I didn’t turn up he’d get the hint and that he’d sleep on the couch for the next two nights so I could think.”

There was a pause in which Woohyun recovered his breath, having forgotten to do so throughout the telling of his story.

Then he heard the dial tone.

Key had hung up.

What the actual .

After cursing at his phone for a bit, he decided to shower and then call Key back afterwards. He didn’t know what the rapper was playing at but he was going to get him back for all the yelling.

Woohyun took a long hot shower. He felt so disorientated, not really sure if he had dreamt everything or if it had truly happened; neither explanation seemed to fit.

When he got out of the shower he saw that he had three missed calls from Key. He called him back whilst he got dressed, putting the phone on speaker.

Key skipped hello, “WHY WEREN’T YOU PICKING UP?!”

Woohyun yelled right back, feeling petty. “WHY DID YOU HANG UP ON ME?!”

“I had to make a call! Jeesh!”

“Right at that second?!” Woohyun didn’t get him.

“Yes! I called Sunggyu!”

Woohyun froze.

“You what?”

“I said I called Sunggyu!” Key repeated, sounding incredibly exasperated.

Then his tone turned to excitement.

“And guess what?!”

Woohyun wasn’t in the mood for ‘guess what’. “WHY did you call Sunggyu?!”

“Shush,” Key responded, clearly not finding that an important question, “just guess!”

Woohyun swore he wanted to kill Key right at that moment.

“What?”

“YOU DIDN’T DREAM IT! THAT ALL REALLY HAPPENED!”

Silence.

“Woohyun???? Did you hear me????”

Silence.

“YA! NAM WOOHYUN! ANSWER ME!”

Another moment of silence before finally; “I- Okay. Sure. Right. Okay.”

“Woohyun, are you okay?” Key quietened down, concerned by Woohyun’s lack of response.

“I…I just…I don’t know what’s going on…”

Key sighed, “Woohyun, don’t overthink it too much. Trust me, I double checked, it actually happened. So just get through today and make sure you’re at the lounge room by nine am tomorrow morning, no if, buts or maybes because you still love him and now you can both be happy together. You hear me Woohyun?”

Woohyun nodded, then realising that Key couldn’t see that he made an affirmative noise. Key was satisfied by that.

“Alright, I’ll call you later okay? I got to go now, but Woo?”

“Mmm?”

“I’m so glad things have turned out this way, and you should be too.”

“Yeah Key, I know. I will be, I’m just in shock, I’ll get there.”

“Yeah I know, just get there soon. I’ll talk to you later, bye!”

“Speak to you then.”

Woohyun finished getting dressed after that but once that was done, he felt at a complete loss as what to do. After ten minutes, he finally decided to cook. It was just after ten, he could cook lunch for everyone.

So he headed out to the shops.

Sunggyu had been so anxious about confessing to Woohyun that afterwards he almost fell asleep whilst getting ready for bed. That and an accumulation of missed sleep over the last two months hit him hard and when he laid down on the couch on Thursday night he didn’t bother to set an alarm, figuring he deserved a sleep in.

In the end, he didn’t get to sleep in much. Just after nine am his phone went off.

Sunggyu cursed whoever was calling and rolled over, hoping the call would go away. After a minute it did stop and he relaxed, ready to fall back asleep.

Then it went off again.

Sunggyu cursed aloud and then answered the phone, not bothering to check the ID.

“What?” He tried to keep the anger out of his voice but he didn’t do a very good job.

“Sorry Sunggyu, were you asleep?” The voice was familiar to Sunggyu but not familiar enough for him to guess it straight away.

“Uh yeah. Sorry, who is this?”

“Key, of SHINee, Woohyun’s friend.”

There was silence for a second while Sunggyu’s brain switched on, then finally he responded with a simple, “oh.”

“I’m sorry to disturb your rest, I know you’ve been solo promoting so you must be tired but I was chatting to Woohyun and he is unsure as to whether something actually happened or not and I thought I’d confirm.” Key was speaking in a business like tone that confused Sunggyu. What on earth is this guy on about?

“Uh, okay, if I can help I’m more than willing to, what is it?”

Key took a deep breath on the other end of the line before he spoke again. “If it didn’t happen, please don’t tell Woohyun I asked, but it seems like it did so I had to ask.”

Key paused for a moment and suddenly Sunggyu’s brain caught up and he realised what this was about.

“Did yo-“ “I did ask Woohyun out.”

Key didn’t respond for a moment and then he went to ask further, “did you ki-“

“Yes I kissed him.”

“And con-“

“And confessed to him. I told him to meet me in the lounge room at nine am tomorrow if he reciprocates those feelings as well. Does that answer all of your questions?” Sunggyu did feel somewhat embarrassed to be admitting all of this, especially as he didn’t know Key well and he was not yet sure if Woohyun liked him back.

Key took another moment before responding, seemingly processing everything.

“Yes, it does.”

“Okay, I’m glad to hear that.”

“I’m sorry again for disturbing you, I’ll let you go back to sleep now, but Sunggyu?”

Sunggyu was surprised by being addressed, “yes?”

“Take care of Woohyun okay? If you ever upset him or break his heart ever again, I promise I will come and beat you up. With the rest of SHINee because the extra man power might be necessary…”

Sunggyu chuckled slightly at Key’s self-deprecating humour, “I promise I’ll take care of him and I hope we can get along well Key.”

“I’m sure we will, thank you Sunggyu, have a nice sleep.”

“I will, bye Key.”

After the call ended, Sunggyu laid back down on the couch, ready to fall back to sleep.

Suddenly he sat bolt upright.

Wait. If Key is telling me to take care of Woohyun, does that mean Woohyun does still like me?

He shook his head, trying not to get ahead of himself.

Be patient Kim Sungkyu, tomorrow morning you will know for certain, until then just wait.

Unfortunately, as much as Sunggyu now wanted to sleep, his brain had begun to go at a million miles per hour at the thought of Woohyun saying yes and sleep became impossible.

He decided to get up and go for a run instead.

Woohyun spent 4 hours in the kitchen in the end. He made lunch, he made dinner, he made baked goods, and he made dessert. He wasn’t sure any of it fit into their diets but he figured the manager would probably let them off for one day, especially considering they were in-between comebacks at the moment.

Because he had been cooking all the dishes at the same time (don’t question it, when Woohyun got in a mood he could do the seemingly impossible), lunch was ready at 2 and all the members, having come in at different points to get food unknowingly, were already sitting at the table, ready and waiting for food.

“Yah! Woohyun! You done yet?!” Sungyeol called to him as he was spooning the rice into bowls. Woohyun was about to yell back at him (being a very mature person and all) when Sunggyu spoke up.

“Be quite Sungyeol, just be grateful you’re being cooked for.” Woohyun blushed a little at hearing Sunggyu stand up for him but his back was turned towards the other members so no one noticed.

“Yeah, whatever, no need to play favourites…” Woohyun heard Sungyeol grumble, making Woohyun blush just a little more.

Little did he know, Sunggyu blushed a little himself.

Woohyun finished putting the rice into bowls and started bringing it over to the members. All of them thanked him, except Sungyeol who grumbled about how long it had taken. When Woohyun moved to take the bowl away though, Sungyeol quickly changed his tune and thanked him.

Sunggyu was last to be served because Woohyun was trying to avoid having to go near the leader, his nerves killing him. His hands shook slightly as he placed down the bowl and he hoped to god Sunggyu didn’t notice.

If he did, he didn’t show it, as he just smiled and thanked Woohyun.

That smile was too much for Woohyun and he turned away quickly, trying not to think about the way Sunggyu had kissed him the night before.

Little did he know, Sunggyu was also flustered by Woohyun’s presence. Maybe more so than Woohyun was.

He also wished that it was just him that Woohyun had cooked for.

Woohyun brought over all the other dishes and then sat down, the only seat left the one across from Sunggyu. Woohyun considered saying he wasn’t hungry but he was hungry and he’d put a lot of effort into the food, he wanted to at least taste it. So instead, he settled for engaging in conversation with Myungsoo as much as possible, and when Myungsoo was otherwise engaged, he joined in any other conversation that was going on that Sunggyu was not involved in.

Sunggyu noticed this but he tried not to think too much of it.

The members disappeared almost instantly after eating, all scared they’d get told to clean. Woohyun didn’t mind, he’d planned to waste half the day by cooking and then the rest of it by cleaning so he hadn’t planned to ask any of them to help anyway.

Woohyun begun transferring everything into the kitchen and then filling the sinks, ready to wash everything once he’d put the remaining food into containers. When he turned around, Sunggyu was standing there.

“Can I help?” Sunggyu asked. It took Woohyun a minute to work out what he meant.

“Oh, uh, nah, it’s fine, I was planning to do it all myself anyway.”

Sunggyu begun to put the remaining food into containers anyway.

“Gyu, don’t worry about it.” To Woohyun’s surprise, a smile spread across Sunggyu’s face when he said that.

“I’ve missed hearing you call me Gyu.”

At Sunggyu’s words Woohyun felt a blush creep onto his cheeks and turned away. “You’re an idiot.”

Sunggyu chuckled quietly upon hearing this, but said nothing more whilst he put away the food. Woohyun begun to wash the dishes, piling them into the dish rack, intending to dry them once he’d gotten a fair few done.

Sunggyu finished putting away the food and begun to dry the dishes.

“Gyu, it’s fine, I can do it, honestly.” Woohyun protested, feeling flustered by his close proximity and from calling him Gyu. It was a habit but now it felt embarrassing.

“Just let me help you and then I’ll leave you be, okay? I haven’t seen you in two months, I’ve missed you.” Sunggyu told him matter-of-fact-ly.

Woohyun was getting really sick of feeling his cheeks go red and this time he was sure Sunggyu saw but he didn’t comment on it.

“I missed you too.” Woohyun replied quietly, partially hoping Sunggyu wouldn’t hear him. He saw Sunggyu smile and he knew he had.

They worked in silence until almost all of the dishes were done. It was a strangely comfortable silence, even though both of them were hyper aware of the other’s presence.

It was Woohyun who broke the silence this time.

“You did really well on your interviews and performances, you really showed your talent.”

“Does that mean you watched them all?”

Woohyun wasn’t looking at Sunggyu but he could feel him looking at him. He kept his head down as he responded, “yeah.”

Sunggyu didn’t respond for a bit, simply continuing to dry the dishes until there were none left. Once they were done, Woohyun began to wipe down the benches when suddenly he felt a pair of arms wrap around his waist.

Woohyun froze, waiting for Sunggyu to say something and not sure how to respond. It took a minute but Sunggyu did finally speak.

“I’m sorry, I will wait until tomorrow morning, but I couldn’t help it.” He let go of Woohyun after he said this and with a smile he left.

It took Woohyun a few minutes before he could move again.

And when he could it took all of his will power not to chase after Sunggyu and kiss him.

But he stopped himself because no matter how much the facts said Sunggyu liked him, it somehow all still seemed like a dream and he couldn’t be sure he wasn’t right.

After he left the kitchen, Sunggyu felt incredibly restless and decided to go for another run. Even as he ran though, he couldn’t shake the way his stomach kept clenching and unclenching and his heart felt like someone was squeezing it. He didn’t want to be running, he wanted to be on the couch with Woohyun, cuddled up in front of the TV. Or in their room, laying on the bed together, chatting. Or in a park having a picnic together. Or anywhere.

As long as they were together.

He kind of regretted back hugging Woohyun. Not because it hadn’t been nice, on the contrary, the feeling of Woohyun in his arms was even better than he had imagined. No, it was just that he knew that it would only make it just that bit harder if Woohyun didn’t say yes.

He hoped to god that Woohyun still liked him.

The next three hours went incredibly slowly for the both of them. Neither knew what to do with their time and so spent it wandering aimlessly, making sure only to avoid each other. At about six, Sungyeol and Sungjong set up the Xbox in the lounge to play games.

Woohyun was out there in a flash when he heard the sound of games being played, pouncing on the control the moment Sungjong lost to Sungyeol.

“I’M GOING TO SMASH YOU!” He declared, setting out to use up all his anxious energy through competitive game play.

After about half an hour, every other member of Infinite was also in the lounge room, the loud yelling of the three originally playing games having eventually drawn them all out to either join in the competitive anger or to spectate.

Sunggyu wasn’t much of a gamer but he enjoyed watching Woohyun get so animated over it. Even when he wasn’t playing he was giving what were supposed to be helpful tips that were really just him yelling at everyone. Although most of the other members found it incredibly annoying, Sunggyu found it strangely endearing.

The members all forgave Woohyun for it when he went and reheated their dinner he’d made earlier, serving it to them in the lounge so that they didn’t have to stop playing games.

When he got around to Sunggyu, Sunggyu’s hand touched his as he handed him the bowl and Woohyun very nearly dropped it, only saved by Sunggyu who managed to get a firm grip on the bowl before it could fall.

“Sorry” Woohyun apologised, almost bowing. Sunggyu couldn’t help but chuckle a little at his overreaction.

“It’s fine Woo.” For what had to have been the millionth time that day, Woohyun felt a blush creep across his cheeks.

Unfortunately for him though, this time it did not go unnoticed and it wasn’t just Sunggyu who saw it.

“YA! NAM WOOHYUN! WHY YA BLUSHING LIKE A GIRL?!” Sungyeol’s yelled across the room, drawing everyone’s attention to Woohyun.

Woohyun wanted nothing more than to punch him in the face but he resisted, for the sake of everyone.

Also, because he knew the other members would stop him.

So he decided to instead handle the situation in a much more mature fashion.

“SHUT UP DORKYEOL, JUST BECAUSE I WHOOPED YOU BEFORE!”

“DID NOT!”

“DID TOO!”

The two continued to bicker for a few minutes until Sungjong finally whacked the both of them on the head and told them to shut the hell up before HE shut them up. Permanently.

It got to nine and the gaming didn’t look to be stopping anytime soon and those who weren’t gaming were happily chatting. It was nice but there was a problem.

Sunggyu was zonked. Two runs and an insane amount of nervous energy had made him tired enough to fall asleep then and there. Which was good, that had been his aim, to tire himself out so much that he slept through until tomorrow out of pure exhaustion.

The issue was, everyone was in the lounge room. Where he needed to sleep tonight.

Sunggyu couldn’t help but begin to nod off where he sat, only waking up each time someone (mostly Woohyun) yelled.

Hoya noticed this and came over to see if the leader was okay.

“Hey, Sunggyu, you alright? Why don’t you go to bed?” Hoya asked, accidently waking Sunggyu from yet another almost nap.

“Huh? Oh, yeah, um I would but I need to sleep on the couch.” Sunggyu explained, his voice a little slow.

Hoya was going to question why that was so but he decided that with the state Sunggyu was in right now, he just needed to get him to a bed.

“Here, come on,” Hoya put an arm around Sunggyu and helped off the couch, leading him towards his and Dongwoo’s room. He guided him to his bed and laid him down.

“I’ll sleep in your room and you can explain to me what’s going on tomorrow, okay?” Hoya told the exhausted leader. Sunggyu nodded but Hoya wasn’t sure if it was actually a nod or if it was just his head moving as he fell asleep.

Hoya was about to leave the room when Sunggyu’s voice stopped him.

“Hoya, can you set an alarm for me? I have a date at nine and I can’t be a minute late.” Sunggyu’s word slurred slightly in his almost asleep state and so Hoya wasn’t sure if he actually said date or not but he set an alarm for eight before leaving.

Woohyun watched Hoya lead Sunggyu down the hallway. He was kind of worried for Sunggyu but it did make sense that Sunggyu would be tired, it had been a long two months. Woohyun couldn’t shake the weird feeling though and he continued to stare after the two for a few more minutes, deciding whether or not he should follow them.

He was about to go and see what was going on when Sungyeol spoke up for what had to be the thousandth time that day.

“Hoya’s taking your job Woohyun, what you going to do now Sunggyu doesn’t need you?” The brat teased the vocal.

“Shut up yeol, you don’t know anything!” The moment Woohyun said it, he realised how he sounded and he wished he could take it all back. But he also realised that he was jealous.

It had been a peaceful two months without all of these emotions.

Well, except for when someone had said anything even remotely flirtatious to Sunggyu in interviews. Or said anything in interviews. Or looked at him. Or breathed the same air as hi…Okay, they hadn’t been that much more peaceful to be honest.

But, as much as all that was important, the most important thing at that moment was that Woohyun had just said one of the single stupidest come backs to Sungyeol and the kid was clearly about to pull Woohyun through the pits of hell for it.

Until Dongwoo stepped in, saving Woohyun.

“Myungsoo, you REALLY think you could beat SUNGYEOL at a game?!”

Poor Myungsoo could only blink at Dongwoo before he was being bombarded by Sungyeol and forced to play the game.

Woohyun gave Dongwoo a grateful look and Dongwoo just smiled in return.

At about ten thirty, the party finally ended. Throats had grown hoarse from arguing and those not arguing had grown tired of listening to it. Everyone was so tired that they didn’t even bother to argue when Sungyeol declared himself King of Games.

Okay, well Woohyun was going to argue it but before he could, Hoya asked to speak to him.

“Do you mind if I crash in your room?”

“No, but why?” Woohyun was incredibly confused.

“Sunggyu’s asleep in my bed. He said he had to sleep on the couch so I figured he just couldn’t sleep in your room. Why is that by the way?” Hoya gave Woohyun a piercing look.

Woohyun looked away, unable to hold the other man’s intense gaze. He didn’t know what to say…

“He mentioned something about a date… Is that it? Did you guys fight because he’s dating someone else?” It suddenly clicked in Hoya’s head and his intense gaze softened to worry.

“Date? It’s a date?” Woohyun mumbled to himself before realising Hoya was still there. “Uh yeah, that’s it. We’re not speaking. Much.”

Hoya looked less convinced but he decided not to push it.

“Alright then, just don’t fight too long alright? It’s not good for either of you.” Woohyun simply nodded, no longer trusting himself to speak.

“I’m going to go tell Dongwoo what’s going on. See you in a bit.”

Woohyun nodded again and headed off to his room.

Then something occurred to Woohyun.

If Hoya was staying in their room, he’d sleep in whichever bed Woohyun was not in. So, assuming Woohyun slept in his own bed that would mean that Hoya would sleep in Sunggyu’s bed.

Suddenly, the jealousy from earlier all came rushing back and Woohyun felt strangely possessive. Hoya couldn’t sleep in Sunggyu’s bed! That seemed…intimate! Woohyun couldn’t have that!

And with that thought, Woohyun set to getting ready for bed at the speed of light, just so that he could get to bed before Hoya turned up and therefore make sure Hoya slept in his bed, not Sunggyu’s.

He accomplished his mission with plenty of time, Hoya not coming in for another few minutes after he’d settled into Sunggyu’s bed. Hoya looked like he was going to question it when he came in but he seemed to think the better of it, instead only saying good night before getting into Woohyun’s bed.

Woohyun was set to go to sleep, pleased with his achievement, when suddenly a thought occurred to him.

Sunggyu was asleep in Hoya’s bed.

Damn it!

Sunggyu woke up at 6:30 the next morning. Not by choice, he just awoke at that time and no matter how much he tried to go back to sleep, he couldn’t. So, at seven he got up and had a shower. He hoped Dongwoo and Hoya wouldn’t mind him using their bathroom but he figured waking Dongwoo up at seven am to ask would be worse than just using it so he took his chances.

The hot water was soothing and Sunggyu felt incredibly calm whilst in the shower. Once he got out though, the nervousness began.

He had a little over an hour and a half until it was nine o’clock; first thing he had to do was go and quietly and quickly get some clothes from his room. He would’ve gotten the clothes before showering but he’d forgotten that he wasn’t in his own room…

He snuck down the hall to his and Woohyun’s room, glad to see that no one else was awake yet.

When he got inside he went to go and quickly grab his clothes when he noticed something off. He wasn’t sure what it was, but something didn’t seem right about the two figures asleep. He snuck quietly over to Woohyun’s bed and realised what it was; Hoya was asleep there.

But that meant…

He crept over to his own bed and sure enough, there was Woohyun.

Sunggyu couldn’t work out what he felt, it was like he was experiencing every emotion at once.

He needed the next hour and a half to pass at the fastest pace possible.

After a minute, he finally managed to stop staring at Woohyun’s gorgeous sleeping face and go and grab his clothes from his wardrobe.

Then, after one last glance at the sleeping vocal, he slipped out of the room and quickly headed back to Hoya and Dongwoo’s room, his heart still going a million miles per hour.

Woohyun woke up at quarter to eight. At first he groaned upon seeing the time and rolled back over, intending to go back to sleep.

Then he remembered what nine o’clock meant.

Before he even had time to think further, he’d flung himself out of bed and into the shower. He still had his doubts about everything but that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to make sure he looked perfect just in case.

Well, more perfect than usual.

He intended to make it a short shower but the hot water felt so good against his skin and he couldn’t resist just standing there for a while after he finished washing himself.

Finally he dragged himself from the comfort of the hot water. It was now eight o’clock. He had an hour. He felt his stomach tighten and a rush of nerves. He quickly dried himself and then rushed out of the bathroom to the wardrobe, pulling everything out from it in a frantic search to find the perfect outfit.

After what seemed like a millennium, Woohyun finally gave up, exclaiming “I have nothing to wear!”

“Okay, woah, what the hell.” Woohyun had completely forgot that Hoya was staying in his room and his voice scared the living day lights out of Woohyun, who jumped in fright, spinning around and nearly losing the towel from around his waist.

“I FORGOT you were in here!” He exclaimed, as if it wasn’t obvious that that was the case.

“Clearly,” Hoya replied, looking incredibly perplexed by the way Woohyun was acting, “need help choosing some clothes?”

Woohyun was about to make a rude comment about Hoya’s fashion sense when he looked at the time. It was ten past. He needed to move faster.

“Alright, I’m going to go do my hair and things like that, you choose three outfits for me and I’ll choose from them.” Hoya looked slightly overwhelmed by the vocals demands and also slightly annoyed but he had offered so he proposed no argument and just did what he was told.

Woohyun had already disappeared into the bathroom anyway.

Sunggyu had done his hair at least four different ways. Dongwoo was pretty sure he’d never seen Sunggyu do his hair ever let alone four different ways in fifteen minutes.

The leader cursed under his breathe again and began to brush out his hair, getting it ready to try again.

“Okay, Sunggyu, whoever you’re meeting is not going to notice your hair, just leave it how it normally is.” Dongwoo tried to reason with the other male.

“No, he always looks so nice, I want to look like I’m good enough for him.” Sunggyu replied, still angrily brushing out his hair.

“Okay, I’m not going to question who this is again because clearly you’re not going to tell me but you are going to end up bald if you keep doing that and I can guarantee that that will not look good on you.” Dongwoo said as he reached over and took the hair brush from the leader.

Sunggyu sighed. “Fine, I’ll just go straighten it out,” he headed to the bathroom, stopping when he got to the doorway, “but if I get rejected on the basis of my hair, I’ll kill you for sure Jang Dongwoo.”

By eight thirty, Woohyun had tried on the three outfits at least three times each and still couldn’t decide.

“For god sakes Nam Woohyun!” The rapper was exasperated with Woohyun’s behaviour.

“It’s just not right!” Woohyun whined in reply. Hoya huffed.

“Maybe if you tell me what it’s for, I can help!” He tried, desperately wanting more information than ‘it’s important.’

“I don’t have time! I need to be ready in half an hour!” Woohyun freaked out upon looking at the time, rushing into the bathroom, to fix his hair again Hoya assumed.

Hoya was about to punch a wall when something clicked.

Did Woohyun say nine? Didn’t Sunggyu say last night that he had a date at nine?

Hoya pulled out his phone and texted Dongwoo.

Hey, quick question, is Sunggyu acting weird?

The reply was almost instantaneous.

Yes! He’s done his hair like FIVE times! He’s having a flip out about his appearance for some reason!

A smile spread across Hoya’s face at this information.

Let me guess, he won’t tell you why?

Nope, other than ‘it’s important’ and that ‘if he gets rejected because of his hair, he’ll kill me.’

Wait. If he gets rejected?

Did that mean…

What?

Text me when he leaves, we need to chat.

Both of them were freaking out when ten to hit. They thought they looked a mess but it was too late to change anything now. Instead they’d taken to nervous pacing; Sunggyu in the lounge room, Woohyun in the bedroom. Neither knew just how silly they were being; they’d probably have felt a lot better if they’d known that the other was freaking out just as much as they were.

Ten minutes felt like ten years.

Sunggyu was scared that Woohyun wouldn’t come.

Woohyun was scared that Sunggyu wouldn’t be there.

Finally, the clock ticked over to nine o’clock.

Sunggyu watched the seconds pass, his heart feeling like someone was squeezing it, and his stomach feeling like it was doing flips.

The Woohyun stepped through the doorway.

Upon seeing Sunggyu he stopped and for a minute neither moved nor spoke, just taking in the other, the fact that they were actually there and that they looked so good too.

Then Sunggyu tentatively spoke, still uncertain what to make of Woohyun’s presence.

“Does this mean you reciprocate my feelings?”

Woohyun didn’t respond for a moment and Sunggyu felt like all the air was being from the room the longer he waited.

Then, slowly, Woohyun nodded.

Sunggyu didn’t hold back after that, rushing over to the other male, embracing him as tightly as possible.

“Oh thank god,” was all Sunggyu could say.

He heard Woohyun chuckle at this and he wrapped his arms around the leader, reciprocating the hug.

They pulled apart and just stood there, staring at each other for a moment, both almost expecting the other to disappear.

“Hey Gyu,” Woohyun broke the silence this time.

“Mmmm?” Sunggyu could feel a smile spreading on to his face upon hearing Woohyun call him Gyu.

“I’m going to kiss you this time.”

Sunggyu didn’t know how to respond but he didn’t have to as Woohyun leant forward and closed the distance between their lips.

Woohyun’s hands came up to hold either side of Sunggyu’s neck and Sunggyu’s arms wound themselves around Woohyun’s waist as the two kissed. This kiss felt better than the first, neither was anxious or worried or confused. Instead they just enjoyed the feeling of the person they liked kissing them.

When the two broke apart they had huge grins on their faces and seeing the other grinning just made them grin more.

“Hey Hyun?” Sunggyu’s use of a nickname other than Woo startled him but he couldn’t say he didn’t like it.

“Yes Gyu?” His response was slightly teasing.

“Want to spend the day together?” Sunggyu asked, still nervous to directly ask the other male out on a date.

Woohyun knew what he meant though and he smiled, “it’s a date.”

OKAY! I DID IT! THEY'RE OFFICIALLY A COUPLE AND NEXT CHAPTER THEY GO ON A DAAAATTTTEEEEEEE~

Sorry, I think sometimes I get too excited by my own story...

I hope you like this chapter though, i've been writing it for weeks (mostly becaise I had no internet so I just kept adding to it hence the length....) and it's a big chapter so I hope you all like it!

And there are so many of you! Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you! I love you all so much! <333333333333

Things still arent going great and are still really busy so I can't promise a new chapter soon but I'll try my best~
