Rivals

Mingyu was walking home alone after getting th donuts from Jihoon and Soonyoung when his eyes caught two familiar figures walking together. Mingyu then change his direction and walk to them.

"Hyung?" Mingyu asks, again he is weirded out by the extraordinary sight in front of him.

"Mingyu?" Both Seungcheol and Jeonghan call his name together. They then look at each other and glare.

"Why the heck are you copying what I say!" Jeonghan says, clearly accusing Seungcheol.

"I did not!"

"You did" 

"I did not!"

"Hyung, what are you doing here?" Mingyu asks, effectively shutting up both of them. 

"Ah, I wanted to buy something for the coach since he's getting married. But i don't know what should I take for him." Seungcheol says and pout.

"Okay? Then why is Jeonghan hyung following you?" Mingyu asks. Jeonghan glares at him.

"Hey! I did not follow him. This dumb kid over here asked me to follow him although my job is to tutor him." 

"Tutor you? But hyung I thought you get second already? Why still need a tutor?" Mingyu asks Seungcheol but before the latter can explain, Jeonghan talk first.

"That's because I get number one. He actually thought can beat me. Dream on ." Jeonghan says and smirk. Seungcheol grits his teeth but keep calm in front of Mingyu. He already planned thousands of ways to torture Jeonghan later.

"Ahhh so that's why. But I haven't buy anything for him yet. Hey! Let's go and eat then we can find the gift together." Mingyu suggests. Seungcheol and Jeonghan agreed since they both are quite hungry anyway. It was already 4.30 when they settle in inside a burger restaurant.

"Oh wait. Isn't that Minghao and Jun coming in?" Jeonghan says and the other two boys turn their heads to the said direction.

"I'll get them." Seungcheol says before standing up and walk to his friends. 

"Mingyu what do you want to drink? I'll order it for you." Jeonghan asks.

"I think orange juice will be okay." Mingyu says and smile. Jeonghan went to order and soon Seungcheol comes back with Minghao and Jun.

They all get their own order and eat together. Apparently, Jun is also finding gift for their coach with Minghao accompanying him.

"Wonwoo!" Minghao exclaimed. All of them turn their head to the glass window beside their table and find Wonwoo sitting at the bus stop looking at his phone.

"I'll go get him!" Mingyu says excitedly and run away before anyone could say anything.

"Tch look at him. So obvious. So whipped." Jun says and all of them smirk. 

Mingyu exits the restaurant and walk to Wonwoo softly. He then taps Wonwo's shoulder and the latter looks up. Wonwoo's eyes widen but went back to normal in less than two seconds.

"What are you doing here. God are you just going to appear wherever I go? It's so annoying. Go away Mingyu." Wonwoo says coldly and turns away from Mingyu. Mingyu is definitely taken aback by Wonwoo. He thought by now Wonwoo would warm up a bit to him but no. Wonwoo still hates him. He sighs. Mingyu is hurt but he knows he needs to be patient.

"Seungcheol hyung, Jeonghan hyung, Jun hyung and Minghao are inside the restaurant. We saw you and thought maybe you want to join us." Mingyu says softly. His expression no longer reflect the happiness that he felt just now. 

His friends that are watching them from the in restaurant sigh.

"Wonwoo must have been cold to him again." Seungcheol says.

"I do think Mingyu deserve it but looking at him now, I think Wonwoo might have been to harsh on him." Jeonghan says and the other two nod.

Through the window, they could see Wonwoo nods to Mingyu and both of them coming this way. Minghao quickly move to sit beside Jeonghan so that Wonwoo and Mingyu can sit together (much to Jun's dismay). Mingyu and Wonwoo order at the counter before both of them sit at the table. 

"Hey" Wonwoo says to the others and smile. Mingyu can feel his heart ache because of Wonwoo different treatments but he assure himself that the feeling is nothing personal. He is just sad that Wonwoo wouldn't forgive him or at least give him chance to show that he is truly sorry for what he did. Yes, that's it. He's just sad, he's not jealous or anything. Definitely not. 

Mingyu sits shyly beside Wonwoo and keeps on stealing glances to Wonwoo. Jeonghan and Seungcheol mentally facepalmed and secrtly message Jun and Minghao to leave Wonwoo and Mingyu alone after they all finish eating.

"Hey, why don't we compete! Between the three of us, anyone who can get the best prize for coach win three sets of pizza with chicken and cola." Seungcheol suddenly suggest the idea and Jun and Mingyu's eyes literally sparkle. 

"Call!" They said simultaneously. Seungcheol smirks.

"Great, then I'll be going first with Jeonghan. Jun can go with Minghao and Mingyu can go with Wonwoo. We'll show our prizes on Monday. How you going to hide the prize it's your problem." Seungcheol says and proceed to stand up before Wonwoo decline the idea. 

"No I won't go with him. I just come here for my cheeseburger and now I'm going back." Wonwoo says, didn't even bother to look at the disappointed Mingyu. The younger smiles awkwardly.

"A-ah nevermind. It's okay. I can go alone." Mingyu says, sadness clearly can be heard in his voice. Wonwoo still refuse to look at Mingyu. The younger stands and bid goodbye to everyone. Seungcheol offered to pay for their meals and Mingyu says thank you. He then walk extremely slow and even look back before he exits the restaurant but Wonwoo is still busy looking out of the window. He sighs and starts finding for shops alone.

Wonwoo could feel something hurting inside him when he heard Mingyu's sad tone. He tries to ignore it but he fail miserably. He didn't want to show that he's gone soft for Mingyu so when he sees Mingyu's donuts box on the table, he thanked the god and make a mental note to follow Jisoo to the church later. 

"Mingyu left his donuts. I'll go and give to him." Wonwoo suddenly says and runs out of the restaurant. Unfortunately, he can't see Mingyu anywhere and decides to just follow his heart for directions. 

The four of them smirk. 

"I'm rooting for them."


Finally, after almost 20 minutes of wandering around, Wonwoo found Mingyu walking from shops to shops. He walk to Mingyu and clears his throat. 

"Hey you left this." Wonwoo says to Mingyu. The younger looks beyond shock but quickly calm himself.

"Oh, thanks hyung. But you came this far just to give this?" Mingyu asks.

"W-well, the others already left so I-I thought I should give this to you." Wonwoo says, face red because of embarrasemnt. Why is he so stupid. He shouldn't come her. Now he em..

His eyes widen when he feels Mingyu pats  his head. 

"Thanks Won. Thank you so much. Would you like some? Asmy sign of grattitude of bringing back my donuts." Mingyu says and smiles.

Somehow, Wonwoo finds himself speechless. Mingyu looks so charming and Wonwoo can only  nods. Mingyu smile never leave his face as he takes out tissue and hold the donuts for Wonwoo. The latter takes it and both of them walks silently, eating the donuts. Mingyu mentally thanked Jihoon and Soonyoung. 

Without their notice, Wonwoo follows Mingyu to find the gift and they finally found the perfect gift. It is a couple snapback with the word best coach written on it. Coincidentally, their coach wife is also a sport trainer so the gift is perfect for them. Mingyu and Wonwoo buy the wrapping paper and a card. They paid the chashier to wrap it while they both write on the card. Mingyu settles in for simple but nice words. He thanked the coach for always patient with them and that the coach and his wife can wear the couple item to their games after this. 

They both exit the shop and it's already 9 at night. Mingyu and Wonwoo walk to he bus stop silently but Wonwoo suddenly freeze when Mingyu put a snapback on his head. He looks up and find Mingyu wearing one too. Mingyu's snapback has the word 'what' written on it. So Wonwoo takes off the snapback to look at the writing. It's written 'ever'. Wonwoo raise one of his eyebrows at Mingyu and the latter smiles shyly. Wonwoo put on the snapback and continue walking. Mingyu grins as he catch up with Wonwoo and put his arm on Wonwoo's shoulder. Both looking somewhere else but with smiles evident on their face.
