Stray Kids were on a world tour and it was the best one so far. They were performing their newly released songs, and were having quite the time.
Today had been the second last day of the tour, and Han Jisung was finding it hard to accept that. He had missed Stay so much, yet he couldn't believe the tour was already almost over. He was ready to give the best performance tomorrow, for the last day of the tour.
However, he was also quite nervous. You see, tomorrow Han and his fellow member Lee Know, or Minho, would be covering the song Red Lights, which was originally the song of their other co-members Bang Chan and Hyunjin. That was fine and all. Han had performed next to Minho tons of times till now. It was normal.
What wasn't normal, though, was the song that they would perform to. Red Lights had a very intense choreography, which was filled with sexy dance moves and quite interesting lyrics. And for Han, who had been crushing on Minho for the longest time now, it was, you could say, a task, for him to perform such a song with his crush.
He could barely control himself while rehearsing the song with Minho. How is he so perfect? How can he dance so flawlessly? And his hair, the way it bounces when he jumps- Stop, Han. Focus. You can't screw this up now.
Little did he know, Minho was in a similar dilemma.

Today was the day. The last day of the tour. The day all the members and the fans were very apprehensive about. The members wanted to give their best; the fans didn't want this day to end.
The rest of the songs went good enough. By the time it was time for their Red Lights performance, Han just wanted to get it over with. He didn't want to think about it and make himself more anxious than he already was.
But when he saw Minho emerge at the back stage from the dressing room, Han's jaw dropped.
"I look good, don't I?" said Minho, showing his usual confidence.
His torso was wrapped in black clothing everywhere. From a black shirt to a black coat on top of it, with black pants and his hair parted so perfectly, Han didn't know how he would live to dance until the end of the performance.
"Um y-yeah, you look good, hyung," Han mustered.

And then the performance began. Han and Minho danced perfectly, complimenting each others smooth dance moves and giving each other sly smiles during the performance. It really drove Stay crazy. They were shouting and screaming and laughing and crying, all hysterical emotions, you name them.
They especially really loved the chorus part, and Han and Minho's chemistry made it look perfect.
The moment when I close my eyes, All I see is Red Lights,
Shh, you know I can't leave you alone...
The choreography had been changed a bit, so when they approached the end of the song, they assumed their ending pose, which included Han and Minho being exceptionally close to each other, Han's hand on Minho's chest and the latter looking into Han's eyes.
But all Han could do at that moment was stare at Minho's lips and try his hardest not to lean into them.

After the performance, both the members were in the dressing room, taking off their coats and shoes, and it was all Han could do to not meet Minho's gaze.
What had he been thinking? Why was looking like that at Minho, on stage, in front of Stay, in front of the whole world? Its not like he was absolutely in love with Minho, right? Or... was he?
Minho approached Han, "Why are you so quiet? Everything okay? You did amazing out there, the crowd went crazy."
"Yeah, I'm fine hyung..." mumbled Han. He couldn't bring himself to talk any more. He needed some alone time, to process his feelings and think about what just happened.
But, that's not what happened. Instead, Minho backed up Han against the wall, with Han's body pressed to the wall and Minho's hand placed next to his hand, being face-to-face with each other.
"No. There's something you're not telling me," said Minho, his stern eyes on Han. "What is it? Is it something I did?"
Han's heart was thundering in his chest. He had never been this close to Minho before. He was freaking out. "H-hyung, just, back away, please...", he said, avoiding Minho's eyes.
"Or what?" asked Minho, smirking. "What if I just..." saying this, he stepped even closer to Han, so much so that they were in the same breathing space now. Han was pretty sure he could hear his heart pounding in his chest.
"Hyung...," began Han, but he made the mistake of looking into Minho's eyes. They were sparkling. He felt as if he could see the entire world in Minho's eyes. And then his gaze slid to his lips. How would it be if he kissed them? Would they be as soft as he had imagined all this time?
"Hyung what?" Challenged Minho, "Is there anything you want to say?"
Han couldn't think. What was happening? What was it that Minho said just now? He didn't hear any of it.
"Han... listen," Minho said, prompting Han back to reality and listen to what Minho was saying. "I just can't leave you alone..."
And then Minho pressed his lips to Han's.
It must have been just a second or two, but to both of them, it felt like eternity. It felt as if that was the only thing left in the world now, just them to each other.
When they pulled apart, Han didn't waste a second in wrapping his arms around Minho's waist and back, while Minho put his fingers in Han's fluffy hair. Then they joined their lips again, and they kissed, harder, faster, than ever before.
They continued kissing, embracing, smiling against each others' lips. Their lips fit perfectly against each other, as if they were meant to be.
When they pulled apart, they did nothing but just stare into each other's eyes for a long time. Then Minho snapped out of it, and looked at the time. He cursed. "Hannie, its been half an hour since we came in here, the others must be waiting outside!"
"Oops" said Han, playfully, giving a loving smile to Minho. The latter ruffled Han's hair and gave him another peck.

"What in the world took you guys so long?!" Hyunjin exclaimed.
"Oh, um, nothing, there was just-" fumbled Minho, looking for an excuse.
"Were you guys... um..." hinted Felix, smirking, when he got hit playfully by Changbin, "Hey, don't say such things! Jeongin is in the room, mind what you're saying!"
But looking at Minho's swollen lips and Han's messy hair, Chan knew exactly what had happened in the dressing room, but he kept it to himself.
He spent the following day smirking at Minho and Han whenever he looked at them.
