Niel rolled over as he began to wake. The bedroom was bright with sunlight and he buried his face beneath the pillow to escape it. He was still tired, but now his bladder tugged at him to get up he knew he wouldn’t sleep any longer. With a sigh and a stretch, he sat up and shuffled to the bathroom. Byunghun was long gone, he had left early that morning to open the café. Niel had woken briefly before falling back to sleep when Byunghun had left.

Flopping back onto his bed Niel wondered what he should do with his day. There was nothing he needed to do, except maybe some laundry but that could wait. He checked his phone and found no messages or calls. With another sigh, he got to his feet again. He would spend the day gaming. Why not?

--------------------

Changhyun’s face was pressed into a broad chest; no light seeped into where his eyes were hidden but he woke anyway. With a little moan, he wriggled closer to Jonghyun and tried to go back to sleep. His brain refused to return to oblivion and Changhyun stayed awake. Instead he inhaled Jonghyun’s scent and recalled the previous evening. Automatically he wriggled with delight.

“Mmm.” The noise rumbled through Jonghyun’s chest.

“Morning.” Changhyun mumbled in reply, placing a kiss over Jonghyun’s bone.

“Morning.” Jonghyun replied and rolled onto his back, taking Changhyun with him in his arms. “Did you sleep well?”

“When I got there, I did.” Changhyun replied, now laying across Jonghyun’s chest. Jonghyun’s hand his back and he closed his eyes blissfully.

“Me too.” Jonghyun sighed, closing his eyes to sleep again.

Changhyun walked his fingers along Jonghyun’s waist idly. They ventured from navel to hipbone before making small steps over his taut stomach and across each rib. Jonghyun smiled with his eyes still closed. The fingers continued their journey up over his pectoral where they stopped on his collarbone. They paused before back-tracking over the peck muscle and tweaking Jonghyun’s .

Jonghyun twitched in shock and let out a little cry.

“Hey!” He said with a mixture of laughter and irritation. He raised his head to look down at Changhyun. Changhyun looked back with his dimpled smile. “What do you think you’re doing?”

Changhyun shrugged clumsily and propped himself up on his elbows. With a little effort, he leant over and gave Jonghyun a kiss.

“Oh, now I have to pee.” Changhyun said absently and began to climb from the bed.

-----------------------

Byunghun checked the line of multi-coloured post-its on his coffee machine, reviewing the order he was making and estimating how much milk he needed for the next few. The café was a bustle of people; some who clearly hadn’t been home the night before, some who were on their way to tour the island and needed caffeine, some local regulars.

With efficient movements, he churned out coffee after coffee, aiming to keep each and every one perfect. Silky milk and crema mixed through to make designs in the tops before Lola clicked a lid onto a takeaway or took them to the waiting tables.

Feng worked beside him on the other grouphead of the machine, chatting away with the customers waiting for their coffee. Another casual waiter moved here and there between tables, cleaning and clearing plates and mugs.

His previous evening with Niel had left him with a lot to think about. Not only his own relationship troubles but Niel was holding something else back too. In time, they would have to talk about everything again; the fact that Niel had kissed someone else, that Byunghun was the cause of the rift in his relationship. It would have to wait a little longer though.

Byunghun tapped his milk jug lightly on the bench before tipping into a waiting coffee shot. Things would get sorted later, he decided, for now he needed to make it through this shift.

--------------------

Jonghyun watched as Changhyun extracted himself from the bed and wandered into the bathroom . He stretched on the mattress and sat up, letting the sheet and doona fall around his hips. The apartment was lit with sunlight that filtered through the curtains. He looked around wondering whether he should dress or not.

The room was small, like most Hong Kong apartments. The bed took up most of the space with a compact desk in the corner that held a laptop. Changhyun kept the room relatively clean with the only mess being a few discarded shirts over the chair at the desk. Jonghyun spotted his clothes in a drift across the floor that led from the bedroom door to the edge of the bed. He grinned and fell back onto the mattress with a thump.

Changhyun returned from the bathroom and crawled back onto the bed, stretching out on his stomach beside Jonghyun. He propped himself on his elbows and looked at Jonghyun.

“What do you want to do today?” Changhyun asked.

“Mmm, I don’t know. Nothing much?” Jonghyun replied, rolling onto his side and leaning on his elbow so they were level.

“I like the sound of nothing much.” Changhyun agreed, nodding slowly, “I was also thinking of maybe doing you again, but if you’d rather do nothing….” Changhyun teased with a shrug.

With dominating movements Jonghyun flipped Changhyun onto his back easily and settled his weight over him. Eyes staring down into Changhyun’s he skimmed his lips over Changhyun’s jaw lightly.

“Do you even need to ask?” Jonghyun mumbled before kissing Changhyun demandingly.

-----------------

Chanhee rolled over and his head into Byunghun’s pillow. He needed more sleep, he wanted more sleep, but more sleep wouldn’t come. Sighing with resignation, he took his phone from the bedside table and checked it. 3 missed calls from work, 2 text messages from Byunghun and 5 from Steven. He ignored the 5 from Steven and opened Byung’s.

Byunghun: Morning honey, I finish at 2pm.

Byunghun: I love you Chanhee.

Chanhee glowed, it was nice to read that Byunghun did still love him. He knew that, deep down, but going a week or two without hearing it was hard. Chanhee thought again of the advice from Mr Jones. It would be hard work but it was worth fighting for. Chanhee rolled onto his back and gazed into nothing, thinking of Byunghun.

His cute, soft smile when you caught him off guard with a compliment or joke. His platinum blond hair and all the complaining he had done when the peroxide had burnt his skull. When he was home in his lazy clothes and glasses, scowling when Chanhee told him he looked gorgeous.

Chanhee loved him so much. He had never been more certain of anything. The last few weeks had been tough, but somehow Chanhee felt like they were also a good thing. Their rela

Chapter 27: WOW! Just wow! It's been so long since I read a great, chaptered Teen Top fic, that I almost forgot that this is what I'm living for ㅋㅋ it's just that people don't seem to write them anymore... which is too sad ㅠㅠ
But it also means that I'm incredibly thankful you wrote this story!! I loved it so so so so much!! I'd even go so far, saying it is the best Teen Top fic I've read in... probably two years. I loved your way of describing the characters and the dynamics of each couple. ChangRick was SO ADORABLE in here~~ and ChunJoe were so bittersweet at first and perfect towards the end ♡ as for N.A.P.... it actually drove me crazy ㅋㅋ the moment Minsoo stood Niel up I was literally screaming at my phone ㅋㅋ but it also turned out to be so cute and fluffy and just the right amount of sap xD
so yeah... thumbs up for this!!! thank you so much for sharing~~ (and please continue writing Teen Top fics!! I sometimes feel like I'm the only person with an ongoing Teen Top fic that nobody even reads... it's sad... we need more Teen Top again~~)

Chapter 27: Do i have one ? Rofl . Byunghun can be hilarious sometimes ! I really liked the staring part and the whole what are you staring at.. Why ..because i like them .
Byunghun blushing and playing with the carpet too . very natural ~ he actually confessed first ! How surprising ! It was funny when chanhee said bec you are my best friend lol i bet Byunghun felt his stomach drop . That aside though , I get why he got angry the first time . i mean .. I may too with chanhee laughing in such situation . but the second time i was like .. does he have split personality ?
What angered him in " you better get used to it "?
The part where chanhee thought the doubts would come back but he'd be there to chase them off was so sweet and perfect as a closure ! Really liked it .
And of course we can't forget niel's part . so enjoyable and so funny * thumbs up *

Chapter 26: your brain is fantastically bad at sticking to one project and mine is that way with procrastination , which explains why I just got to read this NOW . I have no word to describe how fluffy and adorable ( Chanhee calling Byung a marshmallow is seriously the best thing ever ) this was ( realistic too ) Byunghun's thoughts about niel having everything he himself lacks and still being scared , unsure of himself .
it's ironic how someone may seem to lead a happy life when they are in fact being bullied .
I'll see you in about four months when i stop being lazy and finally read the next ch .

Chapter 27: My hearttttt is melting!!! This confession honestly explains so much more why Byunghun was the way that he was throughout the story... his doubts and insecurities. I love how Byunghun was the first to confess and say “I love you” but chanhee was the one to reassure him and really be there to chase Byunghun’s doubts away. Ahhh they’re just perfect for each other <3

Chapter 25: It felt a little sad that it's completed, though I'm really GLAD it is in a way too, haha. Unfinished fanfics are the worst sometimes... anyway, I love the theme of this story and how you wanted to include everyone's point of view. It kept the interest going.

As a suggestion, I'd love to read more about Byunghun and Chanhee's story when they were younger and how their relationship developed (maybe that's what you meant with "Byunghun's confession story"?). Thank you for this lovely story and can't wait to read more from you! <3

I enjoyed every moment of it !
Happiness was practically radiating from everyone . Minsoo's thoughts were so heartwarming along with Niel's of course whereas Jonghyun and Changhyun were so cute ~
Byunghun and chanhee ... Well the part when bh thought 11 years hadn't changed anything and not an even eternity will . * squeals *
It's awesome how you managed in just 25 chapters to write a story that's not rushed and not slow-paced either . It was perfect .
Thank you for sharing it with us !

The ending is perfect they're all together and happy...
I don't even know where to begin how to describe how much I enjoyed reading this story and just looking forward to the updates every week ahh I'm going to miss it
Thank you for making the ending so wonderful ㅜㅜ
Chanhee & byunghuns long strong relationship... it's like I can feel the love through the screen;; it's just so precious;; I definitely would love to read about byunghun's confession! (oh and if you're taking requests maybe about their first time?? askfkskdk)
Okay and Changhyun and Jonghyun can they be anymore cute?!? Throughout the whole story they were just so into each other and ugh the best. Now they both have rings to propose to each other! I wonder how that'll turn out lol
Niel being so happy for his best friends and minsu being happy for his new younger brothers made me so emotional ㅜㅜ those two are the perfect match and just so attached to each other seeing them so in love is so heartwarming like they finally found the one they've been looking for their whole lives~

Thank you again for writing this wonderful story!
I enjoyed it so much and I'll definitely be coming back to re-read it~!! <3
