Here we go for the TeaShop!AU no one asked for.

To all the people out there who don't like coffee. ♥

This fanfiction is about Taekai, and is mostly Jongin!centric. Chanyeol is very present, Kyungsoo comes by, Monggu is there, and other EXO members make an appearance, along with Adam & Eve.

It's a silly, fluffy, meek little story that was supposed to be a One-Shot but ended up as a small multi-chaptered fanfiction.

Each chapter is named after a tea blend I like. Yes. Because I'm a nerd.

.

To all tea lovers :

I tried to make this story a bit realistic, unfortunately, my knowledge about korean teas is quite limited. I'm very sorry. Some types of teas found in Taemin's tea shop won't make a lot of sense. I hope it won't be too much of a problem.

PREVIEW

.

"You became a tea person."

Jongin sneered, rubbing his nose.

"I guess so, why?"

Chanyeol let his head fall backward on Jongin's thigh.

"Nothing. I'm just glad that you liked Baekhyun's gift," he mused. "That being said, I think we can open our own tea shop now..."

He laughed at his own comment and Jongin pinched his ear.

"I didn't buy all of that at once," Jongin felt the urge to defend himself.

"But do you even drink them all?"

"I do!"

Chanyeol used his chopsticks to poke at Jongin's cheek.

"There must be at least twenty teas there."

Jongin rolled his eyes. He opened his book again and hid behind. He wasn't even reading it, he just needed something to shield himself.

"Only eighteen."

Chanyeol barked out in laughters.

"Such a tea person. Who would have guessed. My mom's gonna be so happy next time we go there. She can teach you everything about tea ceremony if you wanna."

Jongin made a small sound, not wanting to commit himself into anything. Talking about tea was making him think about his seller again and how unfairly cute he had been last time Jongin went there. He always wore the same uniform and was looking dashing in it. But last time... last time he had combed his hair away from his forehead and just the thought of it made Jongin's stomach feel like he ate butterflies. Seeing his whole face had been a brand new level of pain.

"Are you listening to me?"

Jongin jumped when he felt Chanyeol tickling his ribs and he blinked few times.

"What?" Jongin croaked.

"I was asking if we should put another shelf in the kitchen or if you're gonna stop by now."

His tone was teasing, but Jongin snorted.

"You can do that, yeah. I'll need it."

There was a small moment of silence, before Chanyeol burst out laughing once again. He apparently hadn't expected that answer. The sound of his hilarity woke Monggu up, and the poodle rose his head, yawning at Chanyeol's face before he jumped away from the couch, probably seeking shelter in his owner's bedroom, away from the loudest human on Earth.
