Another day, Another scenario

Albeit tiring, it's unavoidable. As such, Joonghyuk and Dokja stand in front of kimcom's building.

It becomes peaceful and quiet for some time, a complete opposite of when a scenario is in place. A world where everything can become possible, and nothing can be stopped. This includes the weather patterns. Who knew it'd still rain at this time?

Ah.

It began to rain. Joonghyuk glanced over at Dokja to check if he was deciding to go inside. Seems he was not, his eyes were still glued at the piece of electronic he was holding, looking entranced like all the other times. Joonghyuk didn't know if Dokja just doesn't notice the small droplets of water befalling on them. He was wrong. The soft shuffling of Dokja's wings caught Joonghyuk's attention. His eyes shifted above where the shadow took place over him.

Dokja has acknowledged that it was, in fact, raining. And now that he has, how could he let his dear protagonist get wet from this rainfall? It didn't matter that he, himself, was also getting wet. He couldn't afford Joonghyuk getting sick after all. For scenarios, of course! How could he ever admit he cares for the sunfish.

As Joonghyuk took several exchanging glances between Dokja and his wing, he came to the conclusion that Dokja didn't care for himself. 'How stupid' Joonghyuk thought. If Dokja has decided to shield him from the rain, well certainly Joonghyuk can do it as well.

Joonghyuk hovers his hand over Dokja's head. In reality, a hand shouldn't be able to cover an entire head unless two are used. But, the size difference is quite evident as Dokja's head is protected from the rainfall. Perhaps Dokja noticed. Perhaps he has not. But if the slight huff that escaped Dokja's lips and the evident blush on his face weren't enough of a confirmation, then we will never know.

The streets has taken upon a darker shade, the rain doesn't seem to be strong, and seems it'll end after some time. Dokja's wings were getting even more soaked, perhaps Joonghyuk should take care of it later. A little after-care won't hurt.

Silence was in the air as the two covered each other from the rainfall. The silence wasn't awkward or bad, no, in fact, it was comfortable and warm. The need for spoken gratitude wasn't present anymore. They've gotten past the need for conversations. Their companionship and its hidden affection (love) was all that was needed.

Yes, this was okay. A considerable alternative for rest after a full-blown scenario. Inside this bubble it was only the two of them and no one else.

Although, they really need to decide to get in the building soon.

Han Sooyoung looked at the two idiots outside. She's questioning why they haven't gotten inside the building yet if it was already raining. 'Whatever' as Han Sooyoung noticed the warm atmosphere between the two. It was better off undisturbed.
