Jongin is waiting. Jongin is looking. Jongin is looking and waiting for Kyungsoo because it, Kyungsoo is not yet here in the café and restaurant. He keeps on texting Kyungsoo but no replies are received. He rolls his eyes and curses Kyungsoo under his breath.

Jongin is waiting, but he doesn’t know why the next thing he knows is that he is being confronted by this friends of his. He should have rolling his eyes on this conversation, because it’s too dramatic and Jongin doesn’t want some drama.

Baekhyun asks Jongin, “What do you feel now that you only have a week to be with Kyungsoo.” And Jongin is struck. How dare you Baekhyun to ask Jongin about that matter?!! Jongin suddenly feels a lump in his throat but tries his best not to cry in front of his friends. “I don’t know.” Jongin answers.

He looks around and sees his friends. He became friends with these guys because of Kyungsoo. He became this happy because of Kyungsoo. He felt many things because of Kyungsoo. Everything gets in slow motion because of Kyungsoo.

He looks at everyone who sees it through him and there he starts tearing up. He covers his mouth with his palm and sobs helplessly. Everyone softens and feels pity at Jongin who is crying so much now he only has a week left with Kyungsoo. Xiumin can only rub Jongin’s back. he cannot tell Jongin not to cry because Jongin is really hurting and this is the first time he sees Jongin like this.

“Have you asked him to have an extension for you?” Tao then asks him as he leans his elbows on the table.

Jongin wipes his tears away and looks down the table, “I-I don’t want because I know that he wants to go there, too. His parents are there and I know that he’ll be happy there, too.” Jongin says.

Baekhyun dares not to look at Jongin because he’ll feel guiltier. Jongin continues to sob. Then Kyungsoo comes in the place and goes to Jongin immediately when he sees the loved one crying.

“Yah, what did you do to Jongin?!” Kyungsoo scolds everyone in Jongin’s table. They look at him and look like they are telling the same thing, “It’s your fault.” And there they leave the two with their lives.

Kyungsoo now holds Jongin’s hand and Jongin squeezes it. Now, not everything gets in slow motion. Every hour now feels like a minute knowing that they only have some days to be with each other.

Kyungsoo asks Jongin if he wants to talk about it outside. Jongin nods childishly. Then they take a bus to go to Jongin’s house. Kyungsoo keeps on asking what Jongin’s problem is. Jongin will just shake his head and rest on Kyungsoo’s shoulder. Kyungsoo looks at Jongin softly, his eyes are still puffed. He takes in Jongin’s shampoo’s scent and mutters “I love you.” kissing Jongin’s temple.

Jongin caresses Kyungsoo’s hands and kisses it as he closes his eyes. This is the first time he’s feeling this way… Ah no, he always feels this way before, but Kyungsoo happened. He just loves Kyungsoo so much.

When they are in Jongin’s house, Jongin suddenly hugs Kyungsoo by the waist and flops on the couch. “I just want to be like this for a while.” Jongin closes his eyes and hugs Kyungsoo. Kyungsoo looks up at Jongin as Jongin acts like Kyungsoo is his pillow. Kyungsoo then touches Jongin’s closed eyes, Jongin squints his eyes to Kyungsoo, Kyungsoo then asks him, “What happened earlier Jongin?”

Jongin then pouts, “I’ll miss you.” And Jongin kisses Kyungsoo on the lips. Kyungsoo now understands what Jongin is sad about.

“I love you.” Kyungsoo says and kisses Jongin on the lips again. Jongin returns the kisses but breaks it, too. Wanting to be just sweet and such to Kyungsoo. Kyungsoo asks Jongin about it again and Jongin shakes his head once again. “Let’s be sweet this whole day.”

Kyungsoo can just smile and sits up the couch, “I’ll cook something for you.” Kyungsoo then goes to the kitchen with Jongin following behind.

“Be careful.” Jongin says and Kyungsoo thinks that Jongin is really serious, he’s being sweet.

“Watch me.” Kyungsoo winks at Jongin and Jongin just smirks. Jongin just watches the loved one doing his thing, lingering the moment that he can see and be with Kyungsoo.

Kyungsoo chops the vegetables professionally and speedily. He really is serious about it. Jongin then peels some fruits that he bought just a week ago. After peeling some fruits and designing it on a plate, he arranges things and utensils on the table for the both of them. And there something comes in his mind.

Jongin slides his arms on Kyungsoo’s waist, earning a gasp from the smaller one. Kyungsoo then chuckles as he feels Jongin’s chin on his shoulder. He continues to chop meat as he boils water for the soup he’s cooking. Jongin then asks Kyungsoo, “Is this a date?”

Hearing that, Kyungsoo laughs and looks at Jongin, “Yes. This is a date, well, if you want this to be one.” Kyungsoo says and Jongin nods. He kisses Kyungsoo’s neck and Kyungsoo writhes at those lips. “Aish, don’t do that.” he warns Jongin and Jongin instantly stops, but still feeling the warmth of the loved one’s back against his chest.

Kyungsoo lets that position be until he finishes cooking foods for their date. Jongin then tells Kyungsoo to sit down so he can prepare the foods Kyungsoo prepared. Kyungsoo lets his lover to his thing.

Kyungsoo watches Jongin’s every movement and can’t help but to laugh, because this is the first time this is happening, they’re not cursing each other. They eat in comfortable and longing silence, but of course, Kyungsoo and Jongin won’t just let their dinner date to finish like that. Jongin, after eating, throws rice to Kyungsoo and Kyungsoo instantly scolds him, telling him to respect the food.

Jongin laughs and throws more rice to Kyungsoo and Kyungsoo ends up throwing rice at Jongin, too, not minding his oath to not disrespect food. He laughs with Jongin as he washes the dishes and wipes the bubble which formed from the sponge on Jongin’s face. Jongin glares at him and splashes water from the sink to Kyungsoo.

Kyungsoo opens his mouth in surprise and he splashes water to Jongin also and they do that until someone slips due to the wet floor. Jongin laughs at Kyungsoo’s misfortune and clumsiness but still, he helps Kyungsoo to stand up. And he then tells Kyungsoo that they should stop, they’re wet and the whole kitchen is wet, they have to clean it.

And eventually, they clean Jongin’s kitchen and ends up in the bathroom together. They rub each other’s bodies but nothing happens. Just simple touches like this and s like that… They’ll take this day sweet… and they’ll take this night intimate.
