"I'm an idiot," Wooyoung said, pulling Yeosang aside when they joined everyone at the coffee shop. It was a really cool place with lots of green and an outdoor breeze, and the smell of coffee and sweets filling the air made it even better. San was busy looking at the menu, Wooyoung taking the chance to talk a bit with Yeosang. "You just found out?" Yeosang asked, laughing when Wooyoung smacked him.

"Why do you feel like an idiot?" Yeosang asked, looking at Wooyoung who looked at San. "I've been lying to myself about liking San from the moment he kissed me the first time," Wooyoung said, having done a thorough flashback on the way here while he was looking at San.

"Woo, sweetie, you were sorting through so much back then, it's amazing that you even noticed you liked San and acted on it this late in you knowing each other," Yeosang said, Wooyoung not being able to respond as Yeosang pushed him towards San. "Now go take your boyfriend on a date, I'll distract everyone," Yeosang said, Wooyoung bumping into San. San caught him gently with an arm around his waist out of Yeonjun's view, helping him get his balance.

San had taken his hoodie off, casually looking hot af in the café light. He must have changed, Wooyoung not remembering when San was wearing a form fitting black turtleneck. "Yeonjun said he'd order for you," San said, his hand still on the small of his back. "But I got you dessert," San said, making Wooyoung smile.

"Your lips don't count?" Wooyoung asked, thinking out loud. Oops. San looked at him, his expression leaning towards shy. His smile made Wooyoung go quiet after that, leaving him a blushing mess when San pulled him closer. Wooyoung looked at Yeonjun to distract himself, seeing his concertation and wondering if he was struggling. 

"Let me know if you need a hint," Wooyoung said, watching as Yeonjun tossed the menu onto the counter. Yeonjun smiled at Wooyoung, not looking away as he placed his order. "A whole gallon of Americano, no straw and make it two," Yeonjun ordered, Wooyoung blinking at Yeonjun. "Eyyyy you remember!" Wooyoung said, hugging Yeonjun who laughed. It was more of an excuse to put some distance between him and San so he could calm his heart down.

"How could I forget," Yeonjun said, not minding that the person at the front was staring at them.  He looked sus if he was being honest. San smiled at their friendship, enjoying Wooyoung's compliment. He was kicking his feet, blushing, and screaming but only on the inside.

"Don't drink it all at once," Yeonjun said, Wooyoung nodding, returning to his place next to San. "As luck may have it," Yeonjun said, winking at San and Jongho. "They don't have a coffee table for nine," Yeonjun said, wanting them to all split up into pairs. The goal of this trip was not to be forgotten.

"I asked the shop owner if we could stick two tables together and get extra seats," Mingi said, Yeonjun's smile hanging between a fake smile and a real one. Operation Split and Flirt, was now on hold. "Thank you Mingi," Yeonjun said, all of them making their way to the table. Time to move to plan B.

Jongho and Yeonjun shared a look, nodding while Yeosang looked at them confused. "You guys are communicating with hand gestures that could universally be interpreted by anyone," Yeosang said, making sure that Wooyoung and San sat opposite to each other so they could look at each other all they wanted to without turning their heads. Call it doing them both a favor.

"Anyone except everyone," Yeonjun said, looking at the seating chart that was exactly what Jongho and Yeonjun planned except no one knew what was happening. Seonghwa and Yeosang sat next to each other, Mingi and Yunho sitting next Jongho and him, and Wooyoung and San across from each other. "It is a lovely lovely day isn't it?" Yeonjun said, Yunho smiling weakly. "Seeing as how everyone can't stop talking about it, it really is," Yunho said, winking at San. He tried his best not to stress and overthink.
