"Are you busy after work today hyung?" Jeongin asks, swinging his legs back and forth from his position on the stool. He was hanging out with Minho at the shop as there weren't many customers there currently.

"Mmm yeah," Minho says, looking at the younger, noticing the small frown on his face. "I have to collect some herbs and plants from the forest,"

"Oh, okay," Jeongin says, drawing shapes on the counter with his finger.

"You can come with me if you want to," Minho says. "It won't take long, and after that we can go to the house if you'd like,"

"Are you sure?" Jeongin asks, looking up at the older boy. "I don't want to bother you,"

"You won't bother me," Minho says, flashing the boy a smile. "You never do, plus I'm sure the other boys will be happy to see you. Chan hyung was complaining this morning about how he missed you,"

"But I was at your house yesterday and everyday this week so far- how can he miss me?" Jeongin says, confused.

Minho just laughs and shakes his head.

"Also," Jeongin asks. "Why doesn't Chan work here?"

"Chan goes to university," Minho explains. "He's studying to be a music producer,"

"Wow, he's smart," Jeongin says.

"Yeah," Minho agrees, a smile on his lips. "Now are you up for coming with me after work?"

"Of course!" Jeongin says. "But what do you need plants for? I thought you just restocked the store yesterday,"

"I did," Minho says. "I just have to get some for a potion I'm making,"

"Potion?" Jeongin asks, raising an eyebrow and looking at Minho. "are you a witch or something?"

"Yes, actually," Minho says with a chuckle. "I am a witch,"

"Really?" Jeongin says, his eyes widening. "I was just joking but that's so cool! I thought witches were evil though,"

"No," Minho says with a sigh. "I'm not evil, I don't curse people, and I don't fly on a broomstick," Minho explains, denying all of the crazy rumors about witches. "I just do magic and make potions and spells,"

"Ah, you're really cool Minho hyung," Jeongin says, earning a smile from Minho.

"Thanks," Minho says, ruffling the younger boys hair. "Now, I'm gonna close down the shop and we can go find the plants I need,"

The boys leave the store and Minho locks up the shop.

Minho leads Jeongin through the city to the forest where he and the other boys live.

"Now, I'm looking for snapdragons," Minho says. "You know what they look like, right?"

"Yup! Woojin and I were messing with some the other day. He taught me how I could manipulate them to make them grow and change color," Jeongin explains, smiling as he remembers playing in the flowers with Woojin. Minho smiles down at the younger.

"That's great, I'm glad he's teaching you well," Minho says, "Can you grab some if you see them anywhere?"

"Of course," Jeongin nods. "Also, if Woojin hyung a nature fairy and you're a witch, are the other boys magic too?"

"Yes," Minho says. "Seungmin's half witch, I guess, I'm teaching him some stuff," he stops and bends down, picking up a flower that Jeongin has never seen before and they continue walking. "And Hyunjin is a water nix, I'm surprised he hasn't dragged you to go swimming with him yet,"
