Summary:

"Lee Dongsik."

 

Juwon's voice is low and the use of his full name can only means trouble is brewing for him. Still, Dongsik looks up from the wisteria sprout he's currently changing the pot for and smiles his kindest smile. "What is it, blossom?"

 

Juwon's face imperceptibly softens at the petname.

 

"Don't you butter me up, what did you do?"

Notes:

Hello! Here's another prompt fill! This one was a bit challenging because I'm not that good with humour. Still, I enjoyed writing it a lot ^^ There's no peculiar AU for this one but I like to think it's set in the same timeline as Uphill Road. You don't have to read it though as this drabble was initially written as a stand-alone. It just so happened to share the same vibe as Uphill Road ^^ Now I'm leaving you to it!~

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

"Lee Dongsik."

 

Juwon's voice is low and the use of his full name can only means trouble is brewing for him. Still, Dongsik looks up from the wisteria sprout he's currently changing the pot for and smiles his kindest smile. "What is it, blossom?"

 

Juwon's face imperceptibly softens at the petname.

 

"Don't you butter me up, what did you do?"

 

Dongsik frowns briefly, tutting as he carefully places the wisteria in its new, more spacious, home.

 

"There you go, throwing accusations around."

 

Juwon squints at him, pinches the bridge of his nose with a sigh that makes his shoulders sag.

 

"Everyone is talking about me, the only logical explanation is that you did or said something."

 

"Who's talking and where?"

 

Dongsik stands up with a light groan, dusting his knees before taking off his gardening gloves. Juwon shoves a fresh water bottle into his chest before presenting him his phone screen, open on their group chat.

 

Dongsik smirks, unable to resist the temptation to tease "Ever the caring husband."

 

Juwon grabs the front of his tank top and tugs him hard, planting a rough peck at the corner of his lips. "Oh shut it, will you..."

 

Dongsik chuckles then focuses on Juwon's phone, all the comments from their friends clearly referring to his husband and while somehow they all sound light-hearted, they are indeed poking fun at him.

 

"Woah, the other half of the ice siblings has finally melted" is from Jihwa.

 

"Didn't know Juwon-ah could smile like that~" Hyuk follows his comment with a couple of ㅋㅋ.

 

Jihoon dumps in a shocked reaction pic with Face screaming in fear Face screaming in fear emojis for emphasis "Juwon hyung, is that really you?"

 

Dongsik scrolls down a little to find Jongje's own little word, right after Juwon sent a confused "What?" "It looks like the cover for a ballad single or something"

 

Minjeong pipes in with "Manyang's top star latest comeback, his new single titled doll!"

 

Jaeyi sends a few throwing up emojis followed by "Did ahjussi bribe you?"

 

Even Yuyeon chimes in "Stop teasing, he won't do it again Face with hand over mouth "

 

Sangbae only says "ah, youth..." and everyone then teases him on how he finally managed to find the sighing emoji.

 

Dongsik looks up from the phone screen, finding Juwon glaring lasers at him.

 

"So what did you do?" Juwon snatches his phone back.

 

Dongsik holds his hands up "I swear I did noth-" he interrupts himself, keeping one hand up and fishing his own phone from his back pocket.

 

There's the sound of new messages in the chatroom and Dongsik sees his own notifications on top of his phone.

 

In a couple of quick swiping, he shows his phone open on a picture Dongsik posted on his SNS earlier, before tending to his plants. "That's all I did! I swear!"

 

Juwon frowns a little more before the tip of his ears start turning red and he glances away from Dongsik's phone.

 

Dongsik looks at the post displayed, heart squeezing fondly at the image he took of Juwon, half turned away and looking down, Shy but genuine smile gracing his face.

 

The caption under it is just a string of flower emojis. Dongsik feels a contented sigh bubbling in his lungs when Juwon shouts.

 

"Yah! these two!"

 

Juwon seems positively embarrassed, unconsciously stomping in frustration. Dongsik checks the chat, smile already on even before seeing what their friends have been up to. He finds out that Minjeong and Jihoon probably share the same braincell at times, both sending an edited version of the picture, one as a cheesy album cover and the other as part of a made-up article.

 

Dongsik's smile widens "cute."
