"Get up, Baekho!" the same voice he hears everyday snapped at him again today on this lovely sunny morning where he had to drag his out just to attend a hell hole, namely school. "Fine. Don't get up. I'll walk Minhyun to school alone and don't say I didn't try."

With that, both twins were up and ready and waiting for Minhyun who was just walking out from his home. His expression brightened up when he saw the twins and he waved.

"Good morning. Why the early show up today?" their childhood friend asked. Baekho scowled while Dongho nudged him in the side with a bright smile.

"We thought we would walk you to school, school president," Dongho said with a chuckle. Minhyun raised a brow but shrugged it off.

"Sure. But Baekho looks like he doesn't have enough sleep and he's not wearing the proper school blazer again."

"That's on him for playing until late last night."

Baekho gasped and nudged his twin, obviously upset that the other lied. "Did not. And that pink on the coat is ugh. No thanks."

"Well, playing games are fine but make sure to get enough rest and to study for your exams. Remind me again why I'm still friends with you when you're not abiding to school rules."

Baekho clicked his tongue and showed a dissatisfied expression although what he was feeling inside was the complete opposite but he tried not to show it. Dongho, on the other hand, was walking beside Minhyun happily and chatting with him about studies and school stuff. Minhyun's cheerful responses only fueled Baekho's dissatisfaction more. He wanted to be the one beside Minhyun and making him laugh like that but he couldn't. His nerves gets all kinds of jumbled up whenever he tries and he ends up saying something rude or misunderstanding instead. And it's all because of Hwang Minhyun. This accursed handsome tall male whom both him and his twin brother had fallen for (quite literally) when they had first shifted in.

They had just turned 10 when they shifted over. Baekho didn't want to help with the unpacking and had decided to climb a nearby tree to hide from his family. Dongho being the good kid would always help them anyways or so he thought. But after he had gone up the tree, he was too scared to climb down because unlike the trees in their old neighbourhood, the branches were aligned in a way that a 10 year old could easily get down but not the ones here. They were trimmed and he would have to jump down to get to the next branch. Now he regretted climbing up the tree in the first place. He turned to his house but everyone was busy so he couldn't call for help since he didn't want to disturb them. He just decided to stay and wait instead.

"Dongho, where's your brother?"

"I think he went and hide somewhere so he wouldn't have to help unpack," the more obedient of the two replied as he placed another box that wasn't too heavy for him down onto the floor with the rest.

"Would you be a dear and go get him? I'll be pouring out some milk and cookies for the two of you."

"Alright, mum." Dongho washed his hands and headed back to the living room. Just then, he noticed a rather tall boy standing outside of his new home with a wrapped gift in his hand. Dongho believed in love at first sight but experiencing it, this was a first. His heart went fluttering and he felt nervous as their eyes met. He was confused about the way he felt especially when the boy broke into a smile. It almost felt like someone just stabbed him in the heart in the most pleasant way possible. He rushed out to see who it was and what he wanted.

"Hi. You must be my new neighbor," the boy said and held a hand out to shake. Dongho was flabbergasted honestly. Because a kid wanting to shake hands? He would have never thought of something like that but he did shake the hand that was suspended in mid air.

"Hi. I am if you live around the neighborhood," Dongho replied, trying to stay as calm as possible around this new heartthrob. He might have forgotten about his brother too and that was probably a first considering how the two were glued together for most of their life. "I'm Dongho. What's your name?"

"Minhyun. I live next door and oh. This is for your family. My mum told me to bring it over and greet you guys but uh... You seem busy."

"No, no. I'm not busy. Not right now. I'm actually-Ah!" Dongho gasped when he finally recalled his missing brother. Minhyun raised his brows from Dongho's reaction. "Ah.. I have to find my brother. Did you happen to see a boy who looks just like me?"

"Hmm? No. But I can help you search."

"That would be helpful. Thank you so much and sorry for the trouble."

"No problem. I'll search around the area. You should search inside."

"Great thinking." Dongho quickly went back inside and pressed his hand against his chest. It was definitely trying to jump out from his little chest as he breathed in deeply.

Minhyun wandered around the area opposite their houses before he heard some noises coming up the trees that towered over him. Was there a cat stuck there? He peeked up the trees and started finding for the one that had made the noise. He noticed a leg slipping away to hide and blinked.

"Excuse me. Are you perhaps Dongho's brother?" Minhyun asked aloud. It was silent for a while and Minhyun was about to walk away when he heard a meek voice.

"W-wait!" Baekho squeaked and Minhyun stopped walking. He looked up again to find the same face he had just seen not long ago stare back at him again with a frightened expression as if the other boy had ran up the tree just to play a prank on him.

"Ah. Oh wow. You two really do look alike," Minhyun said with a surprised tone.

"Of course we do. We are twins."

"Oh. What are you doing up there? Your brother is finding for you," Minhyun said and Baekho felt awkward now. Should he really ask a stranger for help? One that look like a twig too? Baekho might accidentally snap his bones if he fell onto him. "I get it. You're scared to come down, aren't you?"

"Are you a mind reader?" Baekho gasped but he was thankful he didn't have to ask for help himself if the other already knew his problem. Minhyun chuckled and Baekho swore he probably heard wedding bells chime in the distance. Too early? He was just a 10 year old after all but he had always been into fairytales and cute stories.

"No but I can help."

"How? You look like you'll break if I jump onto you!"

Minhyun opened his arms and smiled. "It'll be fine. I'll ask your mum to pay for my hospital bills if that happened. I'm Minhyun, by the way."

"Baekho."

"Alright, Baekho. Jump down. I'll catch you."

"You sure about this?"

"You want to stay up on the tree all day?"

"N-no!" Baekho gulped and tried to push all his fears down as he stared at the ground that seemed so far away. He bit his lower lip and edged off the side a little more. He was too scared and was about to chicken out when he slipped. He screamed as he fell but Minhyun actually caught him although the tall male had also fallen to the ground too due to his weight. At least neither of them got hurt. "Ack! Are you okay?"

Minhyun laughed and nodded. "Yeah. But you have to get off of me or I won't be fine."

Baekho quickly scrambled off the boy and helped him up. When their eyes met properly, Baekho swore he saw twinkling stars. "T-thanks!" Baekho quickly ran back to his house after that, panting really hard at the sudden pick up of his heart rate.

And that was how they met Hwang Minhyun for the first time.

"Earth to Baekho."

Baekho flinched as Minhyun's snapping fingers were just inches apart from his face. He immediately scowled and pushed his hand away, storming off first with a pout. Why did he have to remember something so shameful right now?

"What's his problem?" Minhyun sighed and Dongho shrugged, fixing his spectacles that was sliding down the bridge of his nose.

"Moody cause I woke him from his beauty sleep, I guess."

Minhyun shifted his lips to one side and stared at Baekho's back. He turned to Dongho who smiled and tilted his head before facing back to the other.

"Is it me or has Baekho's back grown again?" Minhyun asked aloud. Baekho jolted, hearing his name. He peeked back and cleared his throat, walking straighter on purpose.

"He's playing soccer after all," Dongho replied, not really interested in his brother's size but since Minhyun mentioned it, he couldn't help but to gaze at it too. He frowned a little and turned to Minhyun whose eyes were sort of glued to it. "You...like broad backs?"

"Huh? That's a weird question but I guess there's something... Hmm... Comforting and safe about it?" Minhyun replied without much thought. Dongho gulped and nodded. Baekho smirked triumphantly as he hid his giddy smile from the two, hands stuffed inside his pocket to hide his happy little finger curls.

"Hmmm. Maybe I should play soccer too," Dongho said softly.

"Why? Aren't you already plenty busy as class president and also head of chess club?"

Dongho smiled and nodded. "I am but it's good to get some exercise in too."

"That's true. Ah, well. If you can handle it, it'll probably be fun to see the two of you on the field and confusing the hell out of everyone," Minhyun said with a chuckle. Baekho frowned and pursed his lips. There was nothing 'fun' about having identical faces and tastes in his opinion.

"You think so?"

"Yeah. If only a certain someone would dye their hair back to black and wear the school blazer," Minhyun said loudly on purpose. Baekho glanced back and scowled at Minhyun who chuckled. Dongho hummed and nodded. "Man, is there really no way to get him to follow the school rules?"

"There is. If he gets plastic surgery," Dongho responded to Minhyun's shock.

"What? Why?"

"He hates that we have identical faces but there's nothing we can do about that. Dressing and styling our hairs differently are the only options he can choose to look different," Dongho explained and Minhyun sighed.

"Even though both of you are so handsome."

That made the twins stop simultaneously as if someone had let go to the forward controller and they became still. Minhyun bumped into Baekho and glanced back at Dongho as well.

"Baekho? Dongho? What's wrong?" he asked in confusion. Dongho was the first to recover and he smiled widely.

"Nothing! Thank you. Ah, Baekho. Don't you have soccer practice? You should get going," Dongho said to snap his twin out of it as well. Baekho hid his red face behind his sleeve and nodded.

"B-bye!" He blurted out quickly before dashing towards the field since they had reached the school gates. Minhyun tilted his head and chuckled.

"He has practice?"

"Huh? Why, I think so? Haha. Let's head in, shall we?" Dongho said and motioned Minhyun forward. Minhyun raised a brow but continued walking inside. They continued chatting briefly until they reached the student council room.

"Alright. I'll see you in class," Minhyun said and smiled. Dongho nodded and waved. The door opened and inside was the secretary and treasurer of the student council. Ong Seungwoo and Kwak Aron.

"Ah, president, you're here," Seungwoo greeted him brightly as always with a wide smile and wave while the treasurer tapped away on his phone after a small quirky nod. "And morning to you too, Mister Sharp Eyes."

"It's Dongho, Seungwoo ah," Minhyun chuckled. "See ya."

Dongho glared at Seungwoo one more time before turning around and leaving reluctantly.
