"Hyung~" Hwanhee sung, almost skipping into their shared kitchen and wrapping his arms around Wooseok's waist. The older of the two didn't react, save for a small smile, continuing about his task of layering the cream atop the cake with the precision of a professional chef. Hwanhee, undeterred by the lack of reaction, rested his head on Wooseok's shoulder and spoke animatedly.

"Minsoo Hyung and Sooil Hyung had a fight and now Sooil has to sleep on the couch! I'm not really sure what it was about but Minsoo seemed really upset because he didn't relent no matter how many times Sooil said was sorry."

He grabbed Wooseok's hand and pulled him towards the door, only pausing momentarily to grab a hat of the coat stand and pull it down over the older boys red hair. From there, he flung the door open with the excitement of a toddler and pulled Wooseok out into the gentle flurries of snow that had already begun to settle on the frozen ground.

"It's snowing!" The younger boy exclaimed, his eyes curving up into miniature crescents in sight that only made his smile more blinding. It may have been cold but Wooseok couldn't bring himself to make the biting remark that was sitting on the tip of his tongue because it just wasn't worth it to ruin such happiness.

"It is," he chose instead to reply, letting his eyes pan over the undisturb
