They drove to a taco place Hyukjae mentioned before that Donghae said he wanted to try. They were talking about their ideas about the album but the conversation did not feel like work. Instead, they were enjoying their discussion. 

“Tomorrow will be the meeting with the choreographers, right?” Hyukjae validated as he stuffed his mouth with food.

Donghae chuckled while watching him eat, then proceeded to daintily start his tacos too. “Yes, in the morning. I hope it will go well or that if you would ask to change stuff, it could be done within the day, because SKYE practice begins the next day.”

“Don’t worry, I got all day tomorrow to polish the choreography with them.”

“Oh, you don’t have another schedule?”

“No, I made sure tomorrow’s schedule is clear apart from that,” Hyukjae answered with another mouthful of food.

“Wah, good thing I scheduled the practice room for the entire day tomorrow and that I don’t have any other meetings.”

“You don’t have to be there the entire time though. I can manage. I’ve worked with that team before anyway.”

“But I want to monitor the progress. And also…I want to watch you dance and finalize choreography with them.”

Hyukjae stilled for a few seconds, fighting a blush. 

What the heck, why am I acting like a teenager!

“O-okay. You can work there anyway. But if you have to do something, you can leave us there.”

Donghae hummed as he took another elegant bite. Then they were silent for a while as they savored the food and each other’s company, before going off to talk about other stuff.

“By the way, Hyuk, I’m really sorry again for making you wait earlier,” Donghae said as they were driving to the dorm. 

“Nah, it’s fine.”

“You were bored.”

“I wasn’t.”

“Liar. You were playing Candy Crush to kill time.”

Hyukjae chuckled at that. Then his eyes became wide as he realized what Donghae said. 

“Hae….”

“Hm?”

“How did you know that?”

“You said so on Bubble.”

“You’re…subscribed to me?”

Donghae accidentally the wipers. He turned it off as he answered, “Well, yes. I need to be updated on SKYE to monitor if you’re spoiling on Bubble or how well you are promoting the album.”

Hyukjae nodded in understanding. “Ah, you’re subscribed to the four of us?”

“Yep,” Donghae said with a pop of his lips. 

That did make sense. It makes more sense than Donghae just subscribing to him alone. Because there’s no reason for Donghae to do that, right?

Anyway, Hyukjae is still glad that Donghae is subscribed to him. He is curious if Donghae replies to his messages sometimes too. 

***

As they arrived at the dorm, he was surprised to see several pairs of shoes by the entrance. It turns out that Kyuhyun is drinking with three of his friends.

“Hyuk! Hae!” A tipsy Kyuhyun greeted them enthusiastically. 

Donghae greeted him back and Hyukjae just looked at him questioningly because why would he invite his friends here when he
