“Meeting your friends, Kwannie?” 

Seungkwan nods enthusiastically. It’s a lazy Saturday evening, both of them sitting on the couch in Seungkwan’s apartment, holding each other hands loosely.  “Yeah, what do you think? All my friends will be there! You already know Seungcheol hyung and even met Mingyu and Wonwoo hyung, oh and Jisoo hyung! Remember? The guy who translated your words when we first met?” Vernon nods. “He’ll be there too. Jeonghan hyung, Seungcheol’s hyung boyfriend will be there so don’t worry about him.” A sly grin appears on Seungkwan’s lips and Vernon shoots an eyebrow. “Ha, why would i worry about your oldest hyung?” He says with a snort. “Oh, i don’t know. Maybe you’ll assume that i still have some leftover feelings for him? And then you’ll be very cold towards him the whole time we’re there just because you’re jealous of my closeness with him.” Seungkwan gives a sassy blow to his perfectly manicured nails, chuckling when Vernon flicks his forehead gently. “That’s a one time thing, i promise. Besides, now you’re my boyfriend. So there’s no reason for me to be jealous. You’re mine.” He pulls Seungkwan closer to him, almost making the latter sitting on his lap and he playfully nips on Seungkwan’s fingers. “Really? Awww but i’m in the mood for some drama tomorrow.” Seungkwan says as he snuggles closer to Vernon, head resting on his shoulder and his right hand drapes over Vernon’s stomach.

 “Hm, i’m in the mood for some hershey’s kisses right now.”

The infamous unamused face appears on Seungkwan’s face. “Really now? We’re being cute and cuddly here if you don’t realize so why do you even want to go outside to buy—“ His words stopped when Vernon kisses him shortly, surprised because of the sudden kiss and Vernon smirks slyly.  “I mean, my new own version of hershey’s kisses.” He wiggles his eyebrows and Seungkwan gives him a disgusted face. “Ew, Vernon!”

“Are you saying that my kiss is gross? Aw, what a mean person you are Seungkwannie. Alright, from now on i won’t kiss you anymore.” He fakes a hurt gasp, playfully shoving Seungkwan’s arm away from him. “You do know that’s not what i meant so i’m not going to give anything to ‘comfort’ you.” Seungkwan says with a flat expression, removing himself from Vernon’s embrace and getting up from the couch. “I’m going to the bathroom.”

Vernon’s ears perks up from the word bathroom.

“Do you need some help there babe?” He winks suggestively and Seungkwan throws a pillow at him, effectively hitting his face. “ert! Do something productive instead! Yeesh, why do i even have a ert as my boyfriend, kindly remind me again?” Seungkwan grumbles as he goes to the bathroom but Vernon can still see the redness on his cheeks anyways. Chuckling, he checks his phone, replying Sofia’s messages that mostly consist of where are you  and seriously where are you? Mom is searching for you.

“I have to go home, my mom is searching for me.” He says when Seungkwan comes back. “Oh, sure. Drive safely, Vernonie. Be careful.” A gentle smile pulls Seungkwan’s lips into a beautiful bow and Vernon takes Seungkwan’s hands in his, kissing each ten of his fingers tentatively, travelling up to the knuckles. “Sure, i will.”

They walks to the door hand in hand, still reluctant to let go of the other so quickly. “I’ll call you when i get home, Kwannie.” Vernon says as he puts on his shoes. “Yeah, and don’t forget about meeting my friends! Tomorrow, i don’t know what time exactly but i’ll tell you later.” Seungkwan chimes cheerfully. An affectionate smile blooms on their faces, and Vernon tenderly holds Sungekwan’s cheeks in his hands, playfully squishing them before he leans in to kiss the others lips sweetly, leaning back only to give tiny pecks over and over again. A giggle comes from Seungkwan and Vernon stares as his chubby cheeks forms the twin buns he completely adores.

“Love you, sweetheart.”

“Love you too, Vernon.” And Vernon pouts at this. “I called you ‘sweetheart’ but you only called me by my name.” He says, pinching the other’s nose until it goes slightly red and earning him a slap on his arm. “Go, Vernon. Your mom is waiting for you.” Vernon unamusedly wraps his hands on the other’s waist but he surrenders when Seungkwan shoots an eyebrow at him, a silent command of Go or i won’t give you your so called ‘new own version of hershey’s kisses’ for a week .

“Okay, okay, i’ll go. You’re no fun twin buns.” Vernon says dejectedly, hoping that Seungkwan will at least give him another goodbye kiss but Seungkwan only waves at him, and he sulkily open the door. A familiar weight suddenly crashes onto his back, Seungkwan’s curly locks tickling his nape and a pair of arm circling his stomach loosely.

“Stupid handsome bastard is a stupid pet name and i don’t have the replacement for that, so i’m still searching for a suitable pet name for you.” Seungkwan mumbles quietly on his shoulder, dropping a few shy kisses after that. A chuckle escapes his throat and he spins around, wrapping his arms on Seungkwan’s waist tightly, crowding his boyfriend against the wall. He captures those red rosy lips with his own, moving in tandem sweetly, gentle but firm, caressing Seungkwan’s waist in the process. Slipping his hands inside of Seungkwan’s thin shirt he rubs the smooth skin, up and down, fingers brushing his boyfriend’s chest briefly.

“Mhm, Vernon-  ah.”

A moan from Seungkwan makes it harder for him to leave his cute boyfriend. His hands naughtily travels lower,  and lower, and lower, reaching inside the basketball shorts.  A loving squeeze on his boyfriend’s lower back somehow startled the latter and Vernon finds himself stumbling backwards after Seungkwan pushed him away.

“Can you please control your hormone? We almost-, oh my gosh i can’t believe we almost did it here.” Seungkwan protests loudly. “Chill, babe. Besides, what’s wrong with trying a new place? It could be our new favorite place.” Vernon laughs when Seungkwan scowls at him.  Without saying another word his blushing boyfriend immediately opened the door and he pushed Vernon out.

“Aw, baby, why are you so embarrassed? It’s not like this is the first time we’re doing something like this.” He cheekily grins. “Yeah, but it’s inappropriate to do in a place like this. Now go, yeesh, Why aren’t you going?” Vernon scoffs. “Honey buns, you were the one who prevented me from going. What am i supposed to do if you’re back hugging me and saying those words?”

 Seungkwan frowns. “What’s wrong with my words?”

“It makes me wants to eat you because you’re so cute and can you shrink or something? I’m planning to keep you inside of my pocket forever.” He grins when Seungkwan snorts at him.

 “Okay, okay, i’ll go. Bye twin buns. I’ll call you later!”

Vernon closes the door. He walks briefly when he heard the door creaks, and a lightning kiss is placed on his cheek, before the culprit giggles and goes back to his apartment room.

Cute Seungkwannie.

-

The next day comes quickly. He’s already in front of Seungkwan’s apartment building,  waiting for  his  boyfriend to come out. At first he wanted to go upstairs  and wait in Seungkwan’s room but Seungkwan said he’s almost done. (You’re going to  waste your energy to climb the stairs and then climbing it back down because i’m ready when you arrived at my room. Plus, we don’t know  if you’re going to  attack me or not. So stay downstairs, okay?)

“Vernonieee!”

A smile breaks on his face and he catches his lively boyfriend.

“Did you sleep well twin buns?” He asks sweetly, dropping a few deep kisses on his boyfriend’s lips. “Stop kissing me, i can’t answer you properly!” Vernon chuckles and he buries his head on  Seungkwan’s neck, sniffing his faint peachy soap scent. “So, we’re going to Seungcheol hyung’s apartment. You know? That one when i asked you to pick me up for our first date?”

A content sigh is the reply from Vernon and Seungkwan chuckles.

“Come on, Vernon, we’re going to be the last one coming and by then Minghao would finish all the cake! I want my two slices of red velvet cake. Hurry!” He pats Vernon’s hair before he wiggles out of Vernon’s deathly grip on his waist. A pout appears on Vernon’s lips and Seungkwan chuckles, kissing the pout away.  When they’re both already sits on the motorbike, Seungkwan hugs his boyfriend’s waist tightly, nuzzling his cheeks on Vernon’s shoulder. A hand pats his arms briefly and he smiles.

I hope they will tone down their teasings. God knows how Vernon will react if they bring up my past feelings for Seungcheol hyung....

After parking the motorbike they walks hand in hand to Seungcheol’s apartment room, with silly giggles and stupid ‘cute bump’ on each other’s shoulder. This is greasy, Seungkwan knows, acting like two teenage girls talking about their crushes and teasing the other by lightly shoving them with their shoulder. But he doesn’t care, he’s too focused to make Vernon relaxed so that he’s not surprised when his hyungs decided to be jerks mischievous s hyungs. Praying for please be proper hyungs for once goddammit he opens the door without knocking, because he knows the rest already arrived. Jeonghan told him a few minutes ago.

“Ohh, Seungkwannie is here!”  Someone shouts, not really sure who but Seungkwan guesses it’s either Seokmin or Soonyoung.

“HEYY HE BROUGHT HIS NEW BOYFRIEND GUYS!”

Yep, definitely Seokmin and Soonyoung.

“Hello to you too. And Soonyoung hyung can you please stop blowing up my phone with your messages, i’m already in front of you ohmygosh. Seokmin hyung! Stop sending me emoticons and emojis- OOF! Hello Minghao hyung. Nice to meet you! Where’s Junhui hyung- oh, there he is. Come on, Vernon! I’ll introduce you to Junhui hyung. But first, this is Minghao hyung. He’s Chinese and he’s a year older than us.”

Vernon nods as he shakes the Chinese boy’s hand, internally not believing that this guy is older than him because he could easily pass as the youngest in Seungkwan’s circle of friends. Then another Chinese guy comes, introducing himself as Junhui, though his face reminded Vernon of that one beautiful member of Super Junior band. Seungkwan tells him that both of them learned martial arts and Vernon must’ve showed his disbelief because they laughed, saying that it’s normal if he doesn’t believe it at first.

This isn’t as bad as what he expected. Seungkwan is happily bringing him around, introducing him as my boyfriend, like a busy honey bee buzzing around to collect his winter preparation. He smiles fondly at Seungkwan everytime he says ‘Meet my boyfriend, Choi Hansol Vernon. Yeah, he’s the supermarket guy, and no i wasn’t gushing over him back then!’ , knowing that he’s not exactly subtle and a few of them only smiles at him understandingly(Jisoo, that something-young guy, and the younger Chinese guy)  but some of them openly coos and even smirks at him. (Kim Mingyu and Jeon Wonwoo, well hello there, i hope your relationship is okay after that incident at the amusement park.)

“Where’s Seungcheol hyung, Wonwoo hyung?”

Whoops, he forgot about Seungkwan’s oldest hyung. He already saw his photos and (damn he’s adorable and handsome wtf how is that even impossible, he even has a dimple!) of course a cautious feeling bubbles inside him. Right now though, Mingyu is smiling caninely(?) at them with a somewhat ‘interesting drama is ahead of you, my child’ expression. Wonwoo still with his unamused stoic emo face points at a door.

“Is he with Jeonghan hyung?” Seungkwan asks with a grimace and when Wonwoo nods, a hint of a mischievous grin on his lips, he groans. ‘Ew, can’t they wait until we go home or something? Why did they invite us if they’re going to go at it like rabbits in heat? I don’t even know if rabbits have heats but i’m going to drag them both here.” With a determined expression Seungkwan lets go of their interwined fingers, skipping to where the door is and Vernon silently whine in his mind.

Why do they even need to let go oftheir hands? It’s not like Vernon will suddenly burst into the room and doing something scandalous. He sometimes doesn’t understand his boyfriend but for now he stays still, because he literally can feel Mingyu and Wonwoo’s stare directed at him.

‘So! You guys good?”Mingyu asks. A jab on his ribs from Wonwoo makes him pout, silently stepping away to stand behind his hyung. Vernon watches with interest because he can feel the telepathy going on in the split second Wonwoo stared at Mingyu right in the eyes.

“Forgive him, Vernon. He just doesn’t know the basic form of socializing like a normal person.” A grin(ofc Jeon Wonwoo’s kind of grin, the ‘lifting the corner of my mouth a little with the addition of parting my lips so i can show my teeth’ ) breaks on his lips, not even batting an eyelash when Mingyu retaliates with a kick on his calf, responding only when Mingyu says It’s you, not me hyung but with the form of gently shoving him away. Vernon wanted to say something, maybe answering Mingyu’s previous question but then Seungkwan appears with his oldest hyung, and another beautiful man with short black hair on his sides.

Wait. Is that Seungcheol’s boyfriend? Wow, what a visual they have.

“Seungcheol hyung, Jeonghan hyung, this is Choi Hansol Vernon or you can call him Vernon, my boyfriend, an-“

“Nice to meet you, um, Vernon is it? Yeah, man. Seungkwan used to talked about you everynight, like literally every single night. He always said that he regretted he didn’t ask for your—“

Seungcheol suddenly yowls in pain, the suspect returning to Vernon’s side with a bright red face and Vernon can’t help but patting his cheeks affectionately. The unknown man laughs even, not feeling worried at all even when his boyfriend is pouting at him like a child who wanted to be comforted.  “Your own fault, Cheol-ah. You know that Seungkwan doesn’t want to talk about that. Besides, you cut him when he’s still talking.” What was the name again? Jeonghan? Yeah, Jeonghan grins at his now unamused boyfriend.

“You and Seungkwan’s loyality. Sometimes i hate that.” Seungcheol grumbles unhappily but Seungkwan and Jeonghan only chuckles at him. Vernon feels  little bit left out though, wrapping an arm on Seungkwan’s waist, tilting his head when Seungkwan shoots an eyebrow at him.

“Hyung, all of us are already here. Let’s do our usual ritual!”

Okay, he definitely doesn’t expect his boyfriend to smile teasingly at him, sticking a tounge out while he drags his hand to follow Seungcheol and Jeonghan to the living room. As expected, it’s packed and Vernon is tempted to ask Seungkwan to sit on his lap but he aborts the plan when the Chinese guys did it and received a fairly negative response from the others. (And he’s still shy, because come on, he just knew these guys names literally less than thirty minutes ago)

He’s rather curious about the ‘usual ritual’, opening his mouth to ask Seungkwan but he shuts it when Seungkwan received a microfon and sends him a wink.

And then he started to sing.

Vernon always knows that Seungkwan has a very beautiful, powerful, clear, and smooth voice (a little biased but that’s true, okay?) A warm feeling courses in his heart when he realized that Seungkwan is singing the first song he ever sang to Vernon, A Whole New World, the Korean version. (he kind of feels guilty because Seungkwan refused to sing any English song after he laughed when Seungkwan first sang this song in English.)

Their eyes doesn’t stray from each other, mostly Vernon’s because Seungkwan is singing their ‘song’ in front of his hyungs, and even his ex-crush for two years. He can hear someone says  ‘Theyr’e both whipped’ and ‘Aw, they’re so in love with each other’ but he pays no mind, gaze fixated on Seungkwan only, not even glancing at Seokmin who helps to sing the man’s part. When Seungkwan hits the high note he unconsciously lets out a small ‘wow’, resulting to Jisoo patting his back briefly with a feline grin on his lips.

A round of applause greets Seungkwan when he finished the song (with Vernon clapping the loudest and the longest) , and he shyly returns to his spot beside his boyfriend.

“You’re awesome twin buns. You did great, like always.”  And Vernon side-hugs his cute twin buns when he scrunches up his nose, red color dusting his chubby cheeks.

“Kwannie, you’re both cute and all but please, minimize your skinship. We’re not really a fan of PDA so—“

“Ssh, Cheol-ah. It’s not like you don’t do PDA when we’re at our first year of dating. In fact you still do that sometimes, like yesterday when we visited Jun and Minghao’s place, you kept on—“

“Okay, okay, angel. Tell me, what did Seungkwan give to you so you always picked his side and not me, your boyfriend?”

“Because he prevented us from breaking up. Now shut up, i want to hear Jisoo’s voice.”

Vernon smiles when Seungcheol pouts and sulkily holds Jeonghan’s waist closer to his, resting his head on Jeonghan’s shoulder. Someone clutches his arm and he looks to his left, finding Seungkwan pouting at him with an annoyed glare.

“Now that i gave you my attention fully, yours is directed at Jeonghan hyung. I shouldn’t have bring you here. You kept on staring at him for the last five minutes!” A sulky frown appears on Seungkwan’s face.

Jealous Seungkwan!  Whoa, today is definitely a good day.

“I was staring at them, not just Jeonghan hyung. They’re cute together, Seungkwannie.” Vernon says with a grin. Seungkwan isn’t amused though, still pouting and refusing to look at Vernon.  When he tried to interwined their fingers together Seungkwan immediately slaps his hand away, the pout deepening and he mumbles something about ‘I knew it.’ , ‘Why is Jeonghan hyung so pretty.’ , and ‘stupid Vernon.’

See? His boyfriend is the cutest, isn’t he?

“Baby, you’re my only one. Don’t you remember my confession? The one i said when we’re on your couch cuddling together? Or should i remind you again here, in front of your hyungs?”

“On second thought, nope, i’m good. Don’t you dare saying those cheesy words in front of my hyungs! Ugh, i think i’m going to be embarrassed for the rest of my life.”

Vernon chuckles quietly, playfully nuzzling on Seungkwan’s ear and peppering his cheeks with tiny little pecks, tightly hugging his boyfriend’s frame against him.

Huh, maybe Seungkwan’s hyungs aren’t that bad. And Seungcheol too, because he clearly knew now that the oldest hyung is madly in love with his boyfriend, Jeonghan hyung.
