Work Text:
10:00 pm, Seungmin glanced over the clock in his shared room’s wall before checking if his roommate is already back. Its not really Jiseok he’s concerned about, well he is if course, but his interest lies with the one he’s currently out with, Hyeongjun.
The Strings has been out since morning for a content shoot and they’re not yet back at this time.
Tsk
He tried to sleep as he also have an early schedule tomorrow but as soon as he closes his eyes, he heard their front door unlock
He quickly jumped off of his bed and marched towards their kitchen, grabbing just whatever he can so that he can say he just woke up and it won’t be so obvious that he’s actually waiting for them
“Oh Seungminie you’re still awake?”
Hyeongjun asked as soon as he entered their dorm followed by the nuggetz who are playfully hitting each other as Jiseok accidentally steps on Jooyeon’s feet as he loses balance taking off his shoes.
“Welcome back…I just woke up and felt thirsty so I got up to get water” he answered making sure to not stutter
“Jooyeon stop making a fuss you’ll wake everyone up! I just lightly stepped on you!”
“You’re the one raising your voice!”
Their attention was then captured by the two bickering members as they proceed in going inside while carrying some paper bags back to their rooms. They’re not even surprised by the sight as it was a normal thing for Jooyeon and Jiseok to bicker over petty little things because the next thing you’ll see is they’re glued to each other again giggling on the sides.
Hyeongjun walked over to join Seungmin in the kitchen to get some water as well before going to bed, giving Seungmin a light tap on his back to gesture that he’s retiring for the night, too tired to initiate small talks.
The next morning, they’re back to their normal daily ensembles, the same normal routine of waking up and preparing to go to their studio, and deciding whether to get breakfast or not is always an option to extend their sleep.
As Hyeongjun prepares after taking a shower, his eyes noticed the paper bags they have brought back last night. These are some fragrances given to them by the perfumery that they went to yesterday for their content. He grabbed one of the paper bags and neatly lined up all of the small bottles of fragrances in his table. There’s probably around 18-22 fragrances given to them by the perfumer ranging from fresh, clean, fruity, floral and gourmand scents.
Hyeongjun has never been a fan of fragrances and the only perfume he have in his room right now are two small bottles that are given to him as a gift which he barely even use, however, due to their activity yesterday, he was amazed and now more interested in them after seeing and having to experience how to create one.
He started browsing through the bottles one by one, checking on the labels to see their scents and sniffing the ones that gets his interest, surprisingly he learned yesterday that he’s into sweet fruity scents and gourmand scents. He picked up another bottle with label ‘strawberries and lemon sorbet’, it was a refreshing yet sweet strawberry fragrance with a hint of lemon that is more similar to lemon meringue tart than the fruit one. It’s decided, Hyeongjun starts spraying it all over him.
Their band practice went on as normal, practicing their already existing songs for their upcoming festival performance and after a full run of their planned set, they’ve taken a 10 minute break.
As they all sat and get settled, grabbing their phones and be busy with whatever they want, Seungmin quickly left their practice room, and eventually returning after a few minutes with a cup in his hand. Surprisingly, its not his normal Vanilla Sweet Cream Coffee, but an iced fruit juice, understandable for the current heat they’re experiencing despite the air conditioning.
Their practice proceeded and eventually ended by noon, and they all went home together aside from Gunil who needs to stay in their personal studio for more work.
As soon as they reached their dorm, all of the members takes turn in washing up as all they can feel is the heat from the short walk from their company building back to their dorm. Since there are two bathrooms, it didn’t take that much time before everyone gets to their turn.
Hyeongjun took the shower first as Jungsu still needs to prepare the ingredients and stuff they need for their dinner, and Seungmin took the other bathroom for a quick shower too as Jooyeon and Jiseok are still “too tired to move” and will just take a shower after them.
Unlike Seungmin who takes a questionably long time for a ‘quick shower’ Hyeongjun finishes up quite quickly, and immediately get dressed and ready to help Jungsu in the kitchen. As he was about to leave their room, his attention is once again halted by the bottled of fragrances in his table, making him turn on his heels and quickly picking up a sweet scented one which he simply remembers the place by memory but couldn’t recall the name, spraying a bit all over then leaving their room.
As he took Jungsu’s place in the kitchen to continue in preparing their dinner, Seungmin eventually finishes up showering as well, walking in the kitchen to see if there’s anything he can help with but seeing that Hyeongjun is almost done as well, just sat by one of the chairs scrolling through his phone when he suddenly gets the urge to look through their stash of foods and snacks. Hyeongjun’s attention was piqued as it is rare for Seungmin to snack that late especially before dinner but he didn’t mind it at all, in fact he likes seeing him eat to his heart’s content instead of being on strict diet which even Hyeongjun himself know is very harsh for Seungmin’s health.
After few minutes of looking through their snacks, he picked up a packet of sweets and walks towards their living room, turning on the TV as he munches on his snack. Soon, Jooyeon emerges from their room directly towards the kitchen, eager to eat dinner so he can rest already. As Jooyeon stood by the kitchen pass, Hyeongjun passed by him as he was already settling the tablewares in their table
“Woah~ Junie! Is that you?” Jooyeon asked in full curiosity and surprise
“Is that me what?” He asked with one eyebrow raised, confused at what Jooyeon means
As Jooyeon exclaimed loudly, Seungmin’s attention was drawn as well making him actively listen to what is going on in their kitchen rather than what is on the screen in front of him, as he continually munch on his snack.
“You smell so sweet! Like…hhmmm….ah! Like jellies!!” Jooyeon answers excitedly as he comes closer to Hyeongjun, confirming if he was right when suddenly a choking sound coming from the living room can be heard, followed by footsteps walking towards them
They both turn their head as they saw Seungmin coming towards the kitchen, clenching one hand on his throat as his other hand left the packet of snack in the table, pushing Joo aside— away from Hyeongjun as he quickly gets water to stop his coughing.
“Are you alright Seungmin? What happened?” Hyeongjun asks as he quickly come up to him, rubbing the Seungmin’s back with his hand to soothe him
Jooyeon looks at the two before his eyes moves towards the table, to check on what Seungmin just left and grinning as he saw what it was
“Oh he probably choked while enjoying these…deliciously sweet jellies” Jooyeon interjects as he took one piece and puts it in his mouth while smirking towards Seungmin
Hyeongjun’s mouth opened in an “ah~” as he took that for an answer and gets back onto patting Seungmin
“Are you okay now?” He asked as the coughing has subdued
“Mmhhmm the water was able to drain it down I guess” he said as he put down the glass on the sink and faced Hyeongjun, worry visible on his eyes. He can’t help but notice that indeed, Hyeongjun does smells like jellies tonight.
He’s brought back to reality when Jungsu and Jiseok came to the kitchen as well and soon was followed by the sound of their door, confirming Gunil’s arrival. They’ve all settled down as they wait for Gunil to get changed before they eat. The dinner was as usual, quick with a bit of chit chats, nobody gets up first from their seat until they are all finished eating.
After their meal, Hyeongjun immediately goes back to their room as Jooyeon stayed back in the kitchen since it was Jiseok’s turn to wash the dishes, and no, he’s not there to help, he’s just there to continue their chit chats which actually ends up making Jiseok wash the dishes far longer than he should as he keeps on getting distracted.
In their room, Hyeongjun sits in front of his table, once again checking out the fragrance he have as he saw the bottle of what he have used earlier
“Tutti Frutti”
Oh so that’s what it was, Jooyeon said it smelled nice
He thought to himself as he placed it back and starts looking through the bottles again, deciding for what to wear for tomorrow
“Oh, Hyeongjun you’re still up?” Jooyeon asked as he entered their shared room
“Mmhmm” he answered without looking at him
“Oh! So that’s what it was earlier!” The youngest excitedly stated as he quickly joined Hyeongjun in looking through the bottles
Reminded of what happened earlier, Jooyeon suddenly thought of something for his own amusement
“Junie~ I think you should wear this tomorrow!” he said as he points at a bottle in the left most side
Cookie Dough
Hyeongjun read as he picks up the bottle, sniffing it through the spray nozzle and was surprised at how it smells so much like a real cookie
“Oh! This is nice~~ alright I’ll use this tomorrow” he hums in agreement as he placed the bottle in front to easily access it for tomorrow
The morning was just another normal day for them, a schedule full of ensemble again. This time, their tried to make the rehearsal more fun by doing lots of random adlibs which they know will not get included in the actual performance but still its not so bad to be fun sometime
During their break time, Seungmin can be seen on his phone again, tapping hear and there while nodding to himself then puts the phone down to his side as he continues fixing some files in his laptop even during break. Few minutes after, his phone screen lit up as he receives a notification and went rushing out of their practice room. Soon, he returns with a small box in his hand
“Hey guys… want some?” He offered as his hands digs inside the box. He pulls out his hand revealing what was inside it, chocolate chip cookies.
Most of the guys declines as they’re still busy while Jooyeon grinning from the sides starts to ask for one
“Ahhh I want!! Junie~~ get meeee” he whines, not standing up from the floor as he playfully moving his hands and feet imitating a toddler who’s doing tantrums when asking their parent to buy a toy
Hyeongjun exhales as he stood up and walks near Seungmin who’s already plopped down the floor, eating his cookie happily.
“Lee Jooyeon you’re so lazy you even bothered Jun for it” Jungsu says as he scrolls through his notebook, mostly used for lyrics.
“Hmm it’s not bothering Junie right??” He answered in a cutely tone
Hyeongjun simply laughed as he gets near Seungmin, sitting in front of him to grab one. Seungmin moved the box closer to him and asked him to get one himself too than just for Jooyeon, which he gladly did. As Hyeongjun stood up to get back to the other side where Joo is currently seated at, Seungmin was suddenly halted from eating, not that he was surprised with Hyeongjun leaving, he was startled as he gets a waft of the scent coming from somewhere, it smells oddly similar to what he’s eating right now. His eyes darted in front of him as if his eyes would be able to confirm where the scent is coming from and as he scans through the room he saw Jooyeon who’s been watching him the whole time giggling to himself while reaching for the cookie from Hyeongjun.
The next day was no different, Jooyeon once again suggested a fragrance for Hyeongjun to wear which of course, Jun obliged. It was a cucumber melon scent one, which Hyeongjun finds refreshing, fitting for the recent hot weather they have. While Hyeongjun’s mind is occupied by the scent notes only, as he have learned it was called, Jooyeon on the other hand have a different reason on to why he recommended it.
Seungmin, for now, is confirmed to be eating foods he subconsciously smells from Hyeongjun’s perfume which is very funny yet amusing if you’ll ask Jooyeon. The fact that even without intentionally doing it, his subconscious is still focused on Hyeongjun which affects his appetite. Now, Seungmin is not a picky eater, he eats healthily and occasionally eats snacks and fast foods in a balanced manner and he have never heard nor seen Seungmin express dislike to any food except of one thing, cucumbers.
Seungmin may not hate cucumbers but he doesn’t particularly like them too. He eats small amounts of it when when he eats poke bowls but that’s it, so to confirm, Jooyeon asked Hyeongjun to wear a cucumber scented fragrance to see what will Seungmin do.
Their practice went on smoothly as always, with them pitching in some ideas on who would do the adlib to hype the audience before they take a break
As expected, Jooyeon once again saw Seungmin sneaking out of their practice room as soon as their break starts, he waited for his return, curious at what will he bring in. Surprisingly, when he returned with his usual Vanilla Sweet Cream Coffee. Maybe Jooyeon was wrong and all this time it was just purely coincidental. He pushes the thought behind as they started their practice again till lunch time.
For lunch, they all went to the cafeteria to get jyp bob as nothing beats free food on a tiring day. As they settled down their tables after getting the dishes that they want, Jooyeon can’t help but notice and smile to himself as he saw a bunch of Oi Muchim on Seungmin’s plate, which is plenty enough to let him give Hyeongjun some when he asked for it. Well, knowing Seungmin he will probably give Hyeongjun what he wants event if he only have a piece left but that’s not the point! This just proves that Jooyeon’s speculations were true and his ‘experiment’ was successful.
Their day ended with nothing special at all, until they’re all preparing to go to bed. Jiseok noticed how bad Seungmin is looking since the latter half of their practice until now. He’s been getting cold sweats and have been holding on his stomach for quite a while now, he even skipped dinner as he says “he doesn’t have appetite” which is not unusual for Seungmin but only when they know he’s doing his strict unhealthy diet. Not letting anything bad happen, Jiseok goes to Gunil and Jungsu’s shared room to let the eldest members know of what’s going on which immediately alerted them and have them go to Jiseok and Seungmin’s room.
“Seungmin? Are you alright?“ Gunil asked as he entered their room silently
“Hyung…I’m fine, don’t mind me. This will probably disappear when I sleep” he answered in an obviously weak voice
Knowing his stubborn personality, Gunil try to not work Seungmin up as he’s obviously not feeling well, forcing him will just make him easily irritated and more uncomfortable. He lightly tapped on his Seungmin’s back as he withdraw from the room, meeting Jungsu and Jiseok who’s been patiently waiting outside. Gunil could only give them a disagreeing head gesture, letting them know that Seungmin doesn’t want to do anything.
As the time goes by, the pain in Seungmin’s abdomen doesn’t disappear making him unable to get a wink of sleep. He rose up from his bed and walks slowly towards their kitchen to at least get water which might help him ease the feeling a bit. As he drinks slowly, he felt a hand land on his back, lightly going up and down which caught him off guard at first until he hear the person talk
“Are you in pain? I noticed it earlier but you seem to want to keep it to yourself”
It was Hyeongjun. He asked in a very worried tone as he continued to move his hand. Seungmin kept silent for a while as Hyeongjun also silently watched him. He took a deep breath as he starts speaking
“It’s not going away”
“What is?”
“The pain…in my stomach”
“Do you think this can be cured with pain reliever?”
“…no…I already took some earlier…” he answered as he shook his head left and right
Hyeongjun moves his hand from Seungmin’s back to hold on both of his hands as he pulls him to sit down to their dining table.
“Should we go to the nearest hospital to get you look at?” Hyeongjun asked, holding both of Seungmin’s hands as he settles it on top of the elder’s lap.
Seungmin is obviously torn in making a decision as he stares back to Hyeongjun’s eyes, who’s never left his face since earlier. If you’ll ask Seungmin, he might just want to try to sleep the pain away again, he feels like it’s over reacting to go to hospital for some abdominal pain, but, seeing Hyeongjun like this, he can’t help but nod in agreement.
“Alright, I’ll wake manager hyung to pick us up and give us a ride okay? I hope he will answer the call quickly. Go get changed if you need Minie, I’ll just grab a jacket and call hyung hmm” Hyeongjun says as he quickly give Seungmin’s hand a squeeze before going to his room to call their manager
In less than 10 minutes, their manager arrived to pick them up. Earlier, Gunil wants to join them as Hyeongjun lets him know about their plan, but Seungmin might get overwhelmed to have a lot of people with him and Gunil knows that he would feel more at ease with Hyeongjun so he simply bid them goodbye as he watch them get on their manager’s car till the vehicle is out of sight.
The trip was fast as it was already past 1:00 AM. They go through the emergency room’s entrance as its the only way to get looked at at this hour. After a few tests and questions with the assisting nurse, they were informed that Seungmin had a severe case of indigestion due to the food he had for the day. Apparently coffee and cucumbers are worst to eat together as they’re both hard and slow yo digest. They got some prescriptions and list of food and drink to avoid for the rest of the week till the pain fully subside.
Their trip back was fast enough to give them time to drop by a pharmacy first to buy Seungmin’s medicine before going back to their dorm. Hyeongjun holds Seungmin by his arm as they went back inside their dorm, giving support that is not really needed but highly appreciated by Seungmin.
Both of them returned to their bed after Hyeongjun made sure that Seungmin took his medicine.
The next day, both Seungmin and Hyeongjun were notified by their manager that they can take the day off as he knows that both are lacking sleep and Seungmin is still in pain, its not that bad to have Hyeongjun look over him than simply leaving him alone.
Jungsu and Gunil made sure to prepare enough food that can be easily heat up by the two who would be left in their dorm so that its less task to do for the day and they’ll have more time to rest. As they put some of the food in containers to their fridge, they saw the paper put up on the door with a ref magnet. It was the list of the food that Seungmin must avoid for now and both of them felt bad seeing that the first one on the list is “coffee”.
Jooyeon feeling a bit guilty with what happened as he partly felt at fault, he’s been thinking of what he can do for Seungmin before going out to go to their studio. He keeps pacing back and forth until his eyes catches a glimpse of the bottles in Hyeongjun’s table again. His eyes lip up as he thought of an idea, quickly going through each bottles as he looks for a scent he knew he recalls seeing back in the perfumery hoping that they were also given one. After browsing through each labels he finally found it! He quickly grabbed a paper and pen to leave a note for Hyeongjun as he places the bottle in the middle of his table where he can easily find it.
It may be due to the medicine, the pain he’s feeling, or the lack of sleep, but Seungmin slept quite longer than usual and Hyeongjun woke up earlier than him. Hyeongjun quickly goes down from his bed as he plans to check on Seungmin when he noticed the note left on his table. He slowly picked it up as he hold the bottle with his other hand, his eyes widening along with a smile on his face as he hums in agreement on what was written in the note. He places both items in the table again as he continued to walk out of the room to check on Seungmin.
As he slowly opens the door to Seungmin and Jiseok’s room, he immediately saw Seungmin in the lower bed, which is actually Jiseok’s bed but they switched for today so it would be easier for Seungmin to move around. He’s cuddled up in blanket, peacefully sleeping with stable breathing, his face, beautiful as always. Hyeongjun just stared at him for quite a while before he decided to close the door again.
He saw the memo left by their hyungs regarding the food that they can heat up for the entire day. Seeing that he doesn’t need to prepare for their food, he quickly took a shower first before eating. As he gets dressed, he suddenly remembered the note left by Jooyeon and immediately sprays the fragrance all over him.
As Hyeongjun finished getting ready, he left their room and is about to heat up their breakfast when he heard a door click, immediately knowing that Seungmin is now awake. As he puts in their food in the microwave while the soup is getting heated in the stove, Seungmin lazily walks towards their kitchen giving Hyeongjun tap on shoulders as he greets him Good Morning.
Seungmin, by muscle memory was about to grab his bottle of coffee from the fridge when he felt a hand hold his wrist, halting him.
“Seungmin, you’re not allowed to drink coffee did you forgot?” Hyeongjun reminded him with a stern voice
It’s not that Seungmin forgot, well maybe he did, but he’s actually taking his chances if Hyeongjun will let it pass but unfortunately he did not. Seungmin returns the bottle to where it was originally placed with a pout on his face. Hyeongjun seeing it can’t help but giggle at the sight making Seungmin pout more with knitted eyebrows
“It’s unfair that you had coffee, you should join me and not drink it too” Seungmin complains like a child, still pouting
“Huh? What do you mean? I don’t drink coffee Minie” Hyeongjun answered in confusion
“Oh? Really? That’s weird I thought I smelled coffee before going inside the kitchen” he answered in surprised tone as he sits down to their dining table while waiting for Hyeongjun
Hyeongjun settles the food in front of them, originally Jungsu and Gunil actually prepared separate foods for them, making sure that Seungmin’s food are easier to digest, however, seeing that the partition of food is actually plenty enough for two people, Hyeongjun decided to eat the same set of food the Seungmin is having so that he won’t feel to conscious of his condition.
As soon as they finished eating, Hyeongjun proceeded in cleaning up their plates as Seungmin follows him to the sink holding on the drinking glasses that they used. While he was standing behind Hyeongjun, he can’t help but linger at the scent he can smell from him
shit
The scent of coffee he smelled earlier was indeed not a result of his imagination, it was coming from Han Hyeongjun, as if he was not tempting enough for as he is, he really have to smell like his favorite coffee now huh
Jolting from the water that splashed from the faucet, Seungmin was startled and immediately shook off the thoughts from his head as he walks away from Hyeongjun to take a shower.
As he finished washing up, he saw Hyeongjun playing with his guitar in their living room, as expected. Even if its their free time, vacation or day off, Hyeongjun will definitely play his guitar.
Hyeongjun suddenly felt his presence as he stopped playing to look towards Seungmin’s direction
“Oh you’re done, how are feeling? You haven’t taken your medicine yet” Hyeongjun says as he puts his guitar down to walk towards Seungmin
Suddenly reminded of his medicine, quickly went to his room to get it but before he could go out, Hyeongjun followed him inside with a glass of water at hand. As if they’ve communicated through telepathy, Seungmin then took the pill and grabbed the glass of water from Hyeongjun to push it down before placing the glass in his table instead of giving it back to Hyeongjun.
Seeing that he have already taken the medicine, Hyeongjun is about to leave the room when he felt a hand holding his.
“Don’t go…” Seungmin whispers, barely audible but enough for Hyeongjun to hear.
Hyeongjun smiled as he releases the door knob and pushing the door to close instead. He then turned to face Seungmin who’s still holding his hand, currently looking at him with puppy eyes, a sight thats is rarely seen.
“Hmmm…why…” Hyeongjun asked as he moves closet to Seungmin
“Junie…” he releases his hold as he tapped on the side of his bed gesturing Hyeongjun to sit next to him, which the younger one immediately did
“Hyeongjunie….can I…” he hesitantly asks as he looks at his hands, fiddling with the hem of his shirt
“Hmmm? What?” Hyeongjun asks as he puts his hand on top of Seungmin’s to stop his actions
“I…I..no nevermind it’s nothing…” the other answered as he starts to pull away from the hold when he felt Hyeongjun’s hand hold him tighter
“What is it?” Hyeongjun asked as he used his other hand to hold on Seungmin’s face to make him raise his head and face him
This is bad, extremely bad for Seungmin’s heart, he might survive the indigestion but might die from heart attack with what Hyeongjun’s doing right now. It wasn’t even that long ago when Seungmin realizes his feelings for Hyeongjun which he’s been keeping a secret as to not have it affect their team but at times like this, he just want to risk everything and be selfish for once, but he’s not crazy, of course he won’t do that and most importantly, he won’t do anything that Hyeongjun doesn’t want.
He stared at Hyeongjun for a while, and just like last night, as if Hyeongjun have some sort of spell in him, Seungmin can’t help but be honest in front of him
“I…can I hug you Hyeongjun…” he confessed shyly as he looked back down to the floor, preparing himself to be turned down as he knew that the Hyeongjun is never fond of such closeness
“Alright…”
“Ahaha I know it was stupid…sorry for as—what?” He nervously laughed as he suddenly realized what he just heard
“I said it’s okay Minie…” Hyeongjun answered as he raised Seungmin’s face again with a smile on his face
As if frozen in shock, Seungmin just stared at him with mouth lightly open in surprise, so Hyeongjun took the initiative to move and hug Seungmin, giving him another internal panic and maybe a heart attack.
The hug was warm, and grounding, making Seungmin relax. After a while, he moves his hand to return the hug and moves his head on Hyeongjun’s side, once again inhaling the sweet coffee scent from him.
“Should we lay down?” Hyeongjun’s asks Seungmin as he slowly moves away
“You will be more comfortable that way” he continued
As surprised as he is from what he’s hearing, he won’t let such opportunity to pass so he shyly nods and move to lay down with enough space for Hyeongjun to join in. Hyeongjun then follows as he places a blanket over both of them before letting Seungmin lay his head on one of his arms so he can embrace him closer, Seungmin’s face currently buried in his chest.
Hyeongjun rested his chin on top of Seungmin’s head as he lightly caressed his back as if lulling him to sleep.
Seungmin, who’s currently staying as still as a rock, slowly relaxes in his hold, not making it obvious that he’s currently dying inside but also thinking that maybe dying in Hyeongjun’s arms doesn’t sound that bad at all as his perfume is definitely not helping in this situation and it keeps driving him more insane.
“Junie…you smell delicious…” he blurted out of his thoughts, making him all shy when he realizes that he just said it out loud
Hyeongjun laughs loudly as he hold on to Seungmin tighter
“What are you going to do now? Eat me?” he jokingly said as he continued to giggle
As innocent as it sounds, it’s not that pure sounding for Seungmin who’s initial thought was “oh I can if you want me to” a thought which he immediately pushed away from his head as he focused on the man he’s holding right now.
Once Hyeongjun have calmed from his high, he lightly pulled back to look at Seungmin’s face, staring at him, with an expression that Seungmin cannot read.
They just stared at each other as they held onto their bodies, when Hyeongjun suddenly starts talking
“Please, always take care of yourself Seungmin…I hate seeing you in pain….I will take care of you if you need me to” he said slowly as he shows an obvious concerned expression once again tightening his hold to Seungmin but keeping enough distance between them to maintain the eye contact that they have right now
This made Seungmin feel warm inside, as if he’s about to burst, he feels itchy in his stomach and it makes his heart swell to know that Hyeongjun is this concerned to his well being. His head feels light and empty, he can’t think of anything and his emotions are overpowering his entirety
“I….” he stutters as if he can’t think of words to say
“I’m sorry Hyeongjun…I…I…can’t think straight right now…I will…I mean I will not be sick…I…oh my gosh— I’m getting distracted with how you smell I’m so sorry” Seungmin continues in stuttering voice as he panicked in answering the one in front him.
This made Hyeongjun smile as he finds this side of Seungmin adorable, a side that he usually hide behind his strong and reliable facade in front if everyone, a clumsy and cute Seungmin
“Do I smell that delicious Minie?” he asked teasingly as he pulls him closer making Seungmin’s breathing hitch.
Silence enveloped them as Hyeongjun slowly released him again so that he can stare at Seungmin’s face. As Seungmin looks up to Hyeongjun, he can’t help but be mesmerized by his face, the face that he can’t read but he definitely finds attractive. They stared at each other until Hyeongjun broke the silence
“….do you want to have a taste?….”
without any words nor thoughts, Seungmin pushes himself upwards to meet Hyeongjun’s lips, capturing his taste as he deepened the kiss, brushing his tongue over the other’s lips to ask for entrance which was immediately given, lapping on their lips as their tongue moves inside one another’s mouth.
He doesn’t taste like coffee at all, he thought.
Their kiss lasted for a while until they had to separate to catch their breath.
“…you taste better than coffee…” Seungmin whispers as he left another peck on Hyeongjun’s lips before hugging him tighter, resting his face on Hyeongjun’s neck, taking in the relaxing sweet scent that he loves.
As both of them starts to feel drowsy, Hyeongjun starts lulling Seungmin by playing with his hair.
“Why do you even smells like coffee for someone who doesn’t drink one” Seungmin finally asked
“Ahh….it was actually Jooyeon’s idea….we had several fragrances from the perfumery we visited and I’ve been using them for quite a while now, and Jooyeon recommended that I use the Caramel Latte one today because you like coffee” he answered as he moves his fingers from Seungmin’s hair to his ears, lightly playing with his earrings.
“That brat…” Seungmin reacted with an annoyed tone as if he’s mad, while having a wide smile in in his face
As the day comes to an end, their members have returned from their practice and as soon as Jiseok returns to his room, what he saw was their house bunny and baby fox all cuddled up together, peacefully sleeping. Of course, he made sure to take more than one photo of this moment before letting everyone else know of what’s going on inside.
Hyeongjun, make sure to use this fragrance today! Seungmin can’t drink coffee so he might feel upset but he might feel better if he can at least smell it right??!!
P.S. don’t get eaten, or get eaten, whatever you find better. You jerks, just start making a move it’s painful to watch you guys stare at each other all the time.
-King Jooyeon
