Today’s the day. Dressed in a silky white button-down and elegant white pants, Jongin fiddles with his sleeves nervously. The view from his dressing room is markedly better than usual: the floor to ceiling windows look out over Seoul with beautified gardens leading over the edge of Walker Hill.
It’s breathtaking. As is Kyungsoo, who strolls over to him in a sharp navy suit, hair pulled up gorgeously off his forehead. He’s giving Jongin that soft smile of his, the one laced with secrets and fondness.
“You look exceptionally handsome today,” Kyungsoo leans in to whisper, sneaking a tender kiss along his jawline, just below his ear, when he retreats. He stays at Jongin’s side, arms overlapping and brushing lightly, just enough to really feel the other’s presence. They're not really alone, staff floating in and out the room regularly.
Jongin runs his eyes over his boyfriend’s form, drinking in his beautiful complexion. “You do, too,” he rasps, voice thick with emotion.
Kyungsoo turns to look at the view Jongin had been admiring. The mist of the morning hasn’t cleared off, obscuring the visibility, but the light refracts off the tiny water droplets and makes it look like they’re in the clouds. “Pretty,” the singer murmurs.
“It looks like heaven,” Jongin replies. “Like a perfect place.”
“Perfect place to what?” Kyungsoo his thumb along the inside of Jongin’s palm.
“To make dreams come true.”
Kyungsoo laces their fingers together lightly and looks up at him gentleness in his large eyes. Jongin holds his gaze, wanting to say a million things at once but the words won’t come together right. Kyungsoo understands him anyway.
“I’ll keep that in mind,” he says, voice full of promises. With a tight squeeze, he lets go of Jongin’s hand as other people flood into the room.
“We going down down baby!” Baekhyun breezes in, singing their new song and bouncing with each step he takes.
“Everybody ready?” Junmyeon asks, looking around and counting members.
A few stylists are still putting last minute touches on some of the guys. The head wardrobe coordinator is grumbling at them. “It’s too nautical, all blue and white. We need a punch of color somewhere.” One stylist mentions something about flowers, and Jongin perks up to take a look.
Looking over the floral arrangement in the elaborate vase on the table, the coordinator in charge nods her head. “Just the guys in jackets, come get a flower and we can pin it like a boutonniere,” she instructs. Jongin feels himself pout. No fair.
Kyungsoo chuckles at him and runs a hand down his broad back as he turns to go pick one out. He spends longer at the table than the other guys, carefully considering his options before his eyes land upon one and light up. Delicately, he extracts the flower and brings it to the stylist with the scissors to cut it to size.
With the newly created boutonniere in hand, Kyungsoo drifts back over to Jongin. “Help me pin it in place?” he requests. Jongin grins. There’s no reason Kyungsoo couldn’t do it by himself, but it’s a nice excuse for Jongin to get his hands inside his boyfr
