Summary
Almost hungrily, Jinki runs his eyes over those familiar features. He scoots close and closer still, close enough to obscure Minho's face with his own shadow, close enough to imagine he can feel the soft rush of air as Minho breathes out.
He blinks and he sees the lithe boy under the sun. The paper plane, the ear-to-ear grin.
This Minho doesn't grin like that, no. This Minho has an older face, a wearier face, a different texture. More weathered. Sharper angles, steeper planes. And this Minho—it hits him like a punch to the gut—this Minho has folds at the corners of his eyes. The beginnings of wrinkles. That's right. It's December again. Minho is turning twenty-eight; he is turning thirty. They've spent all their youth, exhausted their dreams, their happiness, their we'll-do-better-next-year-and-make-it-happen. They're no longer boys.
An yet, and yet...
