Bonus Chapter #4 :
"PEANUT BUTTER?! NO- Well you're weirdly nice today."

‘Guys, you better not forget the butter again!’

Minghao’s voice bounces off the cafe’s wall, catching everyone’s attention except the two it was directed at.

‘They’re probably going to forget it.’ Jun chuckles, patting Minghao’s head as a way to say ‘It’s alright, I’ll get it for you.’

—

‘Oi! Boo Seungkwan!’ Vernon’s voice echoes down the road as he sprints after his friend; to make their not-so-exciting grocery shopping trip a tad bit more fun, the two had agreed that whoever arrives at the store first gets to choose the snack of the night.

If it was a game between him and Chan, Vernon would’ve just let the kid win since he knows Chan wouldn’t have the heart to get the snack he knows Vernon hates; though in this case, he knows Seungkwan wouldn’t hesitate even for a second, and grab at least 2 packets of peanut butter oreo.

Vernon is determined to win this time; he’d always let Seungkwan win whether it was football, UNO and even Monopoly, he just couldn’t stand a grumpy Seungkwan all day. Though this time, Vernon is going to win no matter what it takes-

Unless a certain someone already knows his plan.

With a cheeky smile, Seungkwan had made a peace sign at Vernon, yelling out ‘Fighting!’ and for a moment, Vernon thought the kid was actually going to be nice to him today. But oh, it’s Boo Seungkwan I’m thinking about.

Face as happy as a child receiving candy from its mother, Seungkwan had stuck out his leg while the two were running side by side, his laughter ringing through the houses and stores as he raced ahead, leaving Vernon behind.

‘Urgh! I’m going to get you back for this!’ Vernon screams, breathing heavily as he tries to catch up with the so-called diva.

—

‘Loser! Loser!~’ Seungkwan sing songs as he skips down the aisles, Vernon trailing behind with the trolley.

Sighing, Vernon pushes the trolley without any care, way too focused on cursing Seungkwan under his breathe and how he would’ve won if it wasn’t for Seungkwan’s dirty tricks. The defeated male could only groan when he feels the trolley becoming heavier with every thud, Seungkwan mindlessly chucking in the ingredients he thinks they need.

Don’t blame me when you get in trouble with Minghao…

‘Dude, why would we even need ramen-‘ Vernon starts, brows furrowed and unimpressed.

‘I ran out at home.’ Seungkwan replies nonchalantly, not even bothered to look at Vernon as he turns to head into the snacks aisle.

Oh no…

‘Woohoo-‘

‘Boo Seungkwan, do I need to remind you that you’re like, already eighteen-‘ Vernon interrupts the other’s celebration (‘Dude, as if it’s your first time seeing snacks-‘ ‘Shut up! You’re ruining my vibe-‘ ‘Who the hell taught you that word-‘), ignoring the tugging of his facial muscles.

I am not going to smile, no-

‘Woohoo!’ Seungkwan turns away from Vernon, not even caring about what the other has to say as he races off, hogging almost everything with the word peanut butter.

Facepalming, Vernon can’t help but give in to his facial muscles, lips curling into a big smile as he chuckles, entertained by his childish friend.

—

Oh my g-

‘Everything’s 80,000 won in total.’

The moment those words left the cashier’s mouth is the exact moment Vernon feels his heart drop, the sight of Junghan and Jisoo lecturing him about wasting money appearing in his head.

Urgh, Boo Seungkwan…

The said male is already outside, bouncing up and down with an ice cream cone in one hand and a box of banana milk in the other. Cursing the other under his breathe, Vernon pulled out the credit card under the name of Yoon Junghan, fists tightening as the card is being swiped. As he hands back the now signed bill, Vernon lets out a sigh, hands sweaty even though it’s mid-October.

Walking out of the supermarket with a pale face, Vernon dragged the grocery bags out with him, frowning when he feels Seungkwan arms slipping around his own.

‘Boo Seungkwan, I’m not gonna take the blame for you this time.’

‘Eyyy,’ Seungkwan whines, turning to the other with pouty lips, ‘Come on, it’s not that bad-‘

‘Not that bad?!’ Vernon exclaims, voice a little louder than expected, ‘Dude! You didn’t even see the bill! It’s like, 70 dollars! Do you know how many more ingredients we could’ve bought instead of snacks-‘

‘Okay, okay!’ Seungkwan interrupts, voice equally as loud. ‘Sorry! I mean, yeah, I kinda did went overboard with the snacks-‘

‘Kinda?’ Vernon repeats, snickering when he sees Seungkwan frowns.

‘Shut up, I’m trying to feel bad right now.’

‘Gosh,’ Vernon lets out a small chuckle, reaching over to ruffle Seungkwan’s hair, ‘You’re such a kid.’

‘Kid?!’ Seungkwan’s jaws drop, hand shooting up to squat Vernon’s one away, ‘Excuse you! I’m older than you!’

‘Tsk,’ Vernon smirks, all ready to run, ‘By like, a month, kid~’

And with that, the two are back at it, Vernon running off as fast as he could and Seungkwan chasing after him. Even with two bags full of groceries (more like 1/4 ingredients, 3/4 snacks), Vernon is still leading and even though he’s far behind, Seungkwan can’t help but laugh along.

—

‘I’m gonna give you the heavy bag so you can exercise, since you’re such a weak person.’ Vernon said mockingly, eyeing Seungkwan with doubt.

The pair had decided to call it quit after a good five minute chase, both way too tired; as the two were walking side by side, Seungkwan had insisted on holding one of the bags, arguing that Vernon looked too tired and he didn’t want to look mean when he was questioned about how he was suddenly so nice.

‘Just shut up and give me the bag.’ Seungkwan frowned, glaring at the other, ’I’ll prove to you that I’m strong!’

Laughing at his friend’s ridiculously determined face, Vernon challenged the other to hold it for the rest of the journey back and knowing Seungkwan, the other wouldn’t even last 10 minutes with the heavy back filled with milk bottles and flour packets. Though Vernon sure wouldn’t mind seeing the other struggle.

Nevertheless, Vernon handed his friend the bags filled with chips packet and smaller milk boxes; maybe he’s just too nice, because the victorious face Seungkwan made when they arrived at the cafe, the bag still in his hands, Vernon couldn’t help but smile with his friend.
 

—

‘You want an oreo?~’

‘Shut up, Seungkwan.’ Vernon mumbles, rolling his eyes as he glares at the peanut butter filled oreo in Seungkwan’s hand.

Seungkwan knows damn well that Vernon’s allergic, but he still bought it in the end.

It’s well past 8 and the cafe is already closed, all the staffs heading back to their homes (or their boyfriend’s); since they didn’t have anything better to do, Seungkwan and Vernon had always stop by at the nearby park to have - what Seungkwan called - a late night picnic. It was stupid at first but as their conversations get deeper and the nights get longer, the two had gotten used to it, now being almost a tradition.

‘Hehe~’ Vernon frowns at Seungkwan laugh, about to shoot the other a glare when he sees something he wishes he didn’t.

Because god damn it, now he’s questioning his feelings for the other.

Too focused to even feel the burning stare from Vernon, Seungkwan lies on the grass with his elbows propped up, hands seperating the oreo into two seperate biscuit.

‘Here, I’m pretty sure there’s no filling left.’ Seungkwan says proudly, shoving the biscuit into Vernon’s hand.

Unfazed by the confused look Vernon had shot at him, Seungkwan pops the remaining biscuit into his mouth as he continues seperating the other oreos left.

Boo Seungkwan, don’t do this-

‘Oh!’ Seungkwan’s sudden yelp surprises his friend, making Vernon jumps up in his spot. If it isn’t for the grocery bag (more like snack bag), Vernon’s sure Seungkwan would’ve laughed his off at the sight of a shocked Vernon.

After a minute of rummaging through the plastic bag, Seungkwan pulls out a milk box and Vernon is all ready to complain about how it’s peanut butter flavoured and why the hell did they even make peanut butter milk-

‘Here, chocolate milk for you.’

Chocolate?!

???

‘C-Chocolate?!’ Shocked at Seungkwan’s weird behaviour, Vernon leans closer, not even bothered to take the milk box.

At the sudden closing distance, Seungkwan himself is taken back by it, frozen in place as he stares back at Vernon.

‘Y-Yeah?’ Seungkwan mentally kicks himself for stuttering, cheeks turning red. ‘W-What, would you rather drink peanut butter milk-‘ 

Seungkwan suddenly stops, immediately shutting up when he feels Vernon’s hand slapped onto his forehead.

‘What the f-‘

‘Are you sick?’ Vernon asks, oblivious about his friend’s annoyance.

Seungkwan is about to scream for the other to back off and get his god damn hand off when he sees Vernon moving closer again. As if a switch had just been turned off, Seungkwan’s mind blanks out and he stays still, definitely not ready for whatever that’s to come.

The distances between them is getting smaller and smaller and Seungkwan feels like his heart is going to explode any second now, mesmerized by the look in Vernon’s eyes.

Oh god, is he going to kiss me, are we going to make out, are we going to-

‘You’re acting so nice suddenly!’ Vernon exclaims, ruining Seungkwan’s train of thoughts. ‘But your temperature’s fine though…’

Vernon backs off, removing his hand from Seungkwan’s now red forehead from the impact (‘Sorry~’ Vernon laughs it off, embarssed at himself.) and Seungkwan swears, he’d never been so angry.

‘Oh. My. G-‘

‘Don’t say that-‘

‘God!’ Seungkwan screams, standing on his feet as he kicks the grass, ‘I can’t believe you’ve gotten that close to my face, just to question my kindness!’

‘Wait wha-‘

‘What, is it better if I was mean then?!’ Vernon stares blankly at the exploding male infront of him, scared he’d die if he interrupted. ‘God, how could you even get that close, aren’t you embarassed?! I thought you were going to- I mean, I- You- Urgh!’

Seungkwan groans loudly, kicking the empty banana milk box as he tries to put his frustration into words-

What the f-

Putting a hold on all of his movements, Seungkwan looks down to the grass where Vernon is sitting, the boy’s chuckle loud and clear. Seungkwan can feel his anger bubbling in his vein, ready to fire rants and compaints-

‘What did you think I was going to do?’ Vernon says in the midst of laughing and Seungkwan had suddenly forgot how to speak.

Getting up from his spot, Vernon stands face to face with the now frozen male.

‘What, did you think I was going to…’ Vernon’s voice trail off, once again closing the distance between the two.

Seungkwan gulps, looking away from Vernon’s eyes because damn, those eyes.

‘Kiss you?’ Vernon breathes out and the distance between is so small, Seungkwan can feel the other’s breathe against his skin.

‘W-What, no-‘ Seungkwan protests, about to move away when he suddenly feels something…

Something against…

His lips…

!!!

Finally looking back at Vernon, Seungkwan’s heart skips a beat when he sees the other’s eyes closed and only now does he realized, his lips…

His lips…

His freakin’ lips.

Vernon’s lips are on his own and Seungkwan doesn’t know whether he can handle all these feels in his heart and all he wanted to do was scream and all the feelings are overwhelming him and he needs to let it out before he explodes and-

‘Shush~’ As if he’s able to predict Seungkwan’s moves, Vernon lets out a small chuckle and the vibrations against Seungkwan’s lips did not help him calm down, at all.

But no matter how much he wanted to scream and spazz and just tell everyone about his first kiss, Seungkwan opts to a calmer action and closes his eyes, finally responding to Vernon’s kiss.

And man, they really should get ready for all the questions they’
