Chapter Text
"Beomgyu, honey! Come downstairs for breakfast!"
"Ughhh" beomgyu groans as the sun rains in through the window, blinding him. He squeezes his eyes closed and reaches out blindly for his phone to check the time. The screen reads 9:47am. Beomgyu rolls his eyes and finally sits up, sliding his slippers on and dragging himself downstairs, eyes still half closed.
As he reaches the bottom of the stairs he collides with a body towering over him.
"Dad, don't you have work-" He freezes blinking up at the tall figure. The man chuckles.
"Y-yeonjun! What are you doing here… so early.. on a Saturday?"
"Do I really need a reason to see my best friend?" Beomgyu rose an eyebrow at him. "Well we haven't really had time to hang out one on one lately! So I wanted to check in on you! Maybe see how things are going with Taehyun~" Yeonjun poked at his sides teasingly.
"Hyung!" Beomgyu shoved him away.
"What about Taehyun?" Beomgyu's mom piped up.
"Oh. Uh. Yeah. I swear I've been meaning to tell you… Mom, me and Taehyun are… dating!" The woman nods, placing the rag she had been holding down.
"I know." She smiled. "I've just been waiting for when you finally decide to tell me."
"What? You knew? How'd you-" They weren't even actually dating, how could she know?
"You think I didn't notice the chemistry you two have? Have you seen how Taehyunie looks at you?" Now Beomgyu was more than confused. How did Taehyun look at him? Malice? Disgust?
"I know! Aren't they so cute together, ma'am?" Yeonjun sighed, placing an arm over Beomgyu's shoulder. "They grow up so fast." Yeonjun wipes a fake tear before being shoved away by Beomgyu once again.
"Now you boys quit being silly and come eat your breakfast."
Finishing up breakfast, the two help Beomgyu's mom clean up, and cross the street toward the park. Beomgyu is the first to sit on the swing, gently rocking and looking at his feet. Which are now wearing the new shoes he received from Taehyun.
"So how are things…? With Soobin?" Yeonjun immediately smiles when the name is mentioned. A faint blush coating his cheeks.
"Ah. It's… really really good." Ouch. Yeonjun sits on the swing next to the younger. "I really really like him, Beomgyu." Ouch. "I don't think I've ever liked someone this much." Ouch.
"That's amazing, hyung" Beomgyu tries to force a smile.
"And what about you?"
"What about me…?" Beomgyu raises an eyebrow.
"Don't play dumb! How are you and Taehyun?"
"Ah… It's… great!" Memories of the other night on the ferris wheel appear, but he is quick to brush them away.
"Come on, give me more than that!"
"Well what can I say! You know Taehyun! He's an asshole. Always walking around acting like he has a stick in his ass. And it's almost as if his favorite hobby is pissing me off!"
"But?" Yeonjun smiles and raises an eyebrow.
"But… I guess he has a cute laugh sometimes… and he can be really nice when he wants to… He has his own ways of showing he cares. Like when he noticed I needed new shoes. I didn't even ask, he just bought them! And at the amusement park! He…" Beomgyu trails off.
"You must really like him" Yeonjun smiles.
"He likes me way more than I like him! I'm just dating him out of pity really!" Yeonjun laughs
"Whatever you say."
