Summary
Jisung hesitated, fingers still moving. “Do you ever think about New York?”
It was the first time either of them had said it out loud. Since returning to Korea, it seemed to be the one topic they both tried to avoid. It had sat between them ever since, an elephant neither of them had wanted to name.
“Every night.”
Jisung’s breath caught, fingers stilling for a moment. He nodded, dropping his eyes to a vein just under the elder’s skin. “Me too.”
“You don’t regret it, do you?” Why Minho would ruin the moment asking something like that was beyond him. Perhaps a touch of insecurity, wondering if New York meant the same to Jisung as it did to him.
Or
On their first real date back in Seoul, Minho and Jisung have to decide whether New York was a one-time mistake or the first chapter of something neither of them is ready to name.

“This one makes you look like a divorced dad.” Felix was kind enough to help him look his best. Apparently that meant tearing through his closet and pulling out every shirt Minho had ever owned.
“I am a divorced dad.”
“Yeah, but you don’t want to look like one.” The blond sighed, rummaging through the pile for the tenth time. “It’s giving ‘parent-teacher conference’ energy.”
“It is very responsible.” Hyunjin had, against his will, been dragged into this as well. He gave his input from the bed, sitting crossed legged with his back against the wall.

Jisung stood there in a neat, casual outfit. Nothing flashy or overdone. But it suited him perfectly. Clean lines. Dark colors. Hair styled just enough to look intentional without trying too hard.Comfortable. Effortless. Beautiful in a way that took Minho’s breath away.
“You look—”
“Damn.” The word slipped out before Jisung could stop it, eyes openly dragging over Minho head to toe.
It took a moment for Minho to recalibrate. He willed his mouth to work, still rendered speechless by the pretty young man in front of him. “Hi to you too.”
----------
“Seeing anyone?”“Oh, yea. Met an older guy in New York.”
Minho’s stomach flipped.
“Total nerd. He works with numbers and he’s stupid smart.” Jisung smirked. “And hot as fuck. Like… his thighs. Honestly, they could end me and I’d be grateful.”
Minho nearly choked on his ice cream.
“But… he’s not what I’m used to.”
“How so?”
“He’s… sweet. Respectful. Never pushes. Doesn’t have any expectations. Just sort of… meets me where I am. And I sort of like that.”
“Like what?” He asked quietly.
“Taking it slow. There’s a lot I want to do to him, don’t get me wrong, but… The waiting feels good.”
With the ice cream momentarily forgotten, Minho reached out to brush a stray lock of hair back from his friend’s face. His fingers lingered just a second too long.
“You’re worth the wait.”
