Seven Thirty

Downpours

Periodically checking his watch, Daehyun concluded that it took exactly three minutes and forty-seven seconds for Himchan to return to the table, steaming espresso in hand. He needed to calm down. To focus on anything other than what just happened. Music was nice. The cafe was playing relaxing music...

 

The soft lounge music set Daehyun at ease as he gazed lazily down at his coffee, watching the swirls of steam rise into the air and fade into nothing. "So, why did you ask me to come?" he asked cooly, glancing up at the other with mischevious eyes. Himchan shrugged his shoulders, sitting down across from him. "I just wanted to talk." Daehyun took a sip of his coffee, savoring the mix of flavors before folding his hands neatly on the table. "About?" "Anything. Life. How it's going."

A breathy laugh left Daehyun's parted lips, his eyes creasing in a cheeky grin. "Well nothing out of the ordinary has happened." Himchan balled his fists in his lap, unable to understand how such a amall action could make his chest do that thing and make him speechless. He nodded dumbly, not taking his eyes off the boy's face. "Oh." He took in Daehyun's features like a starving man, as if looking at him would solve every problem. The way his eyes gleamed. How his lips would curve up into a smile. The way he would puff out a breath of air to further cool his coffee. The way his soft brown locks framed his face. How his voice sounded so gentle when he laughed. How cute he looked  blinking slowly. The way--

"-imchan? Hello?"

His train thoughts broken, he looked up in a daze. "Huh?"

"The time. Do you know what it is? It's already seven, how long do you want to stay?"

Furrowing his eyebrows, Himchan shook his head. "It can't be. Double check your watch..." Pulling out his own phone for good measure, he was beyond surprised when his phone betrayed him, flashing seven o'clock across the dim screen.

"Want to shoot for leaving at seven thirty? We could just walk around if you wanted. Maybe the rain will stop by then, too."

 

All Himchan could do was nod, his eyes locking once again on the flawless boy who was Jung Daehyun.
