"did you two kiss?"

yeonjun nodded a 'no', his mind still not moving on from the date with beomgyu. he couldn't stop thinking about the soft flush on beomgyu's cheeks, his mannerism, his way of speaking, and the look he shot him before parting ways at the elevator. the kind you would give to someone you long for.
‎‎

"but i wanted to,"

he added, recalling the shy kiss beomgyu gave him on the cheek when they were boarding the elevator. he could feel the ghost of it still pleasantly lingering on his skin, his senses tingling at its mere thought.

yeonjun simply froze then, and before he could comment at all, beomgyu was already out the door after a haste goodbye.

"you should've just brought him here,"

kai stated as he continued fiddling with the big bunny plush squashed between his chest and the mattress of his bed.

"don't look at me like that, i know when to leave people alone."

"you do?"

hearing the irony in his retort, kai scrunched his face with sarcasm, then parroting-

"you do?"

"and i wasn't trying to fuck,"

before kai could double down and say something more absurd, the sound of iMessage notification on yeonjun's phone causes the both to quiet down.

yeonjun moves over to kai's bed from his own, sitting down by its edge. kai sits upright and resting his chin on yeonjun's shoulder, glances at the recent chat with beomgyu.

"there's still four minutes before the curfew, hyung."

"shut up."

beomgyu silent-squealed into his pillow. he couldn't believe any of it. the date, the intimacy, even the smell of the coffee from the café. the entire afternoon to evening felt like it belonged to a whole another timeline.

and he went and kissed yeonjun on the cheek, then scurried like a pussy. if soobin and taehyun weren't already in the room waiting for him with a fixed plate of food, he would have probably lost all hair from tugging at his head.

but he needed to calm down. calm down, beomgyu. its been four hours. even though four hours already passed since he got back, the embarassment from everything felt raw.
‎

looking to the side, he glances at soobin who slept in the opposite bed with his mouth agape and his head tilted. taehyun slept in the same bed with his arms and legs splayed over soobin.

beomgyu tosses in his own bed for a couple more minutes before reaching for his phone underneath the pillow. the time on his phone reads 1:30 am.

he opens the gallery and taps on the most recent picture. did he really take that?
‎

the my melody keychain sitting on the nightstand right beside his bed told him he did. the still-lingering touch of yeonjun's fingers against his said the same.

and the image of yeonjun in a navy, silk button up shirt which was not buttoned all the way up floated behind his eyelids whenever he closed them shut. and pin-straight black pants. and rolled sleeves. did he mention how classy yeonjun's shoes looked? and how without a spec of dust. and ofcourse, accessories which were the same - classy.

that night when beomgyu finally fell asleep, he dreamt of yeonjun quitting rugby and starting a career in the modelling industry.
