ONE MORE CHANCE [✓]

46

Kihyun never felt more thrilled to be back home. 

He threw his jacket onto the couch and was about to go upstairs when he saw Hyunwoo standing in the middle of the main hall, looking incredibly lost.

"Hyunwoo, get my jacket and put in the laundry." He yelled from the staircase. Hyunwoo walked over and picked up the satin jacket. He looked at Kihyun, awaiting further instructions. 

Kihyun rubbed his face in exasperation and headed downstairs.

Snatching the jacket from Hyunwoo, Kihyun glared at him. 

"Is it just me, or did you become even stupider while I was away?" Hyunwoo gave him an innocent look. "Not that it's even remotely possible for you to be even stupider than you already are."

Hyunwoo pouted and tugged at Kihyun's arm. Kihyun turned around and rolled his eyes. "Okay, so not only did you become even stupider, you became even clingier." Hyunwoo shook his head and pointed at Kihyun's shirt pocket.

Raising an eyebrow, Kihyun looked down at his shirt pocket. There was a little slip of paper inside. How did it get there? Kihyun pulled it out. It was a Polaroid of himself sleeping. 

Confusion clouded his mind until the realization struck him.

When did Hyunwoo take this?

He narrowed his eyes at Hyunwoo.

"You fucking creep!"

He threw it at Hyunwoo and stormed up the stairs. 

While it looked like Kihyun was horribly angry from Hyunwoo's perspective, truth is, Kihyun left the scene with such urgency because he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

I can't let him see me like that. I'll be the joke of the century.

Hyunwoo picked up the photograph and smiled at it. He put it in his own shirt pocket and followed Kihyun upstairs.

He saw Kihyun slam his bedroom door shut. 

Picking up his pace, he ran up the stairs and knocked on the door politely. "Kihyun, are you okay? I'm sorry if I made you angry." He apologized meekly. When there was no response from Kihyun, he knocked again.

"You're a fucking creep, you know that?" Kihyun's voice came from the other side of the door. Hyunwoo sighed. "I'm sorry. I won't do that again." There was a soft shuffling sound from inside the room.

A thump against the door. "Say that again." Hyunwoo looked at the photograph in his hands. 

"I won't do that again. I swear." He put the photo back into his pocket. 

"That doesn't make you less of a creep."

The door flew open, and Kihyun stood there with a playful grin on his face.

"But it doesn't make me love you any lesser."
