PRETTY BOY | Seongjoong ✨

~10~

*back to seongjoong's date*

After an hour of fighting and crying out of laughter, Hongjoong and Seonghwa managed to finally make the cake. It turned out that Hwa is a good listener and didn't interrupt the younger even once, when he was explaining what to do. The flour was still present on their entire bodies and hair, making them giggle while looking at each other from time to time.

When the base of the cake was done, it was time for Hongjoong's favourite part, the icing.
He took a pastry bag and begun to put in some pastel pink cream.

"this already looks so good" Hwa commented, impressed by the younger's several talents. He dipped his finger in the cream, licking it clean, savouring the taste. After doing so he chuckled to himself,

'of course it tastes like strawberries'.

Hongjoong's eyes averted from the icing, when he noticed a finger dipping in his bowl of cream. When he followed the digit, he swallowed, taking in the view of Seonghwa's plump lips around it, the sight somewhat making him uneasy.

To take his mind off of rather unholy thoughts, he proceeded with putting the icing on top of the cake, making a cute pattern on it.

"do you want to try, hyung?" he asked Hwa

"i don't really know how to" the man rubbed the back of his neck, a lazy smile on his face.

"how can you learn if you don't try?" Hongjoong asked his hyung playfully.
Seonghwa could swore that line had a double meaning when it rolled of the younger's tongue.

Today he tried to focus on getting to know Joongie, genuinely interested in the boy for reasons other than his perfect physique. He really enjoyed spending time with him, his spirit being lifted by the cute giggles or attempts to reach something from a high shelf. He liked helping the boy, it made him feel needed and he truly enjoyed it. The model was surprised by his own behaviour, rarely finding himself investing time in anyone, but Joongie just felt special to him, since the first time they met. Maybe it was the cute jumps? Maybe the giggles and his laugh? The great sense of fashion? Who knows.

"hello? hyung!" Hongjoong waved his hand in front of Hwa's face, successfully taking him out of the trance.

"ahh yeah. sorry. lemme try" Hwa placed his arms around the younger, resting both of his hands on each side of the boy, standing closely behind him.

Joongie froze, the scene reminding him of the one in his dream, his breath hitched and he started to get a little nervous. He felt Hwa's head hovering above his own, his arms much bigger than his, covering him almost completely.

Hwa took the pastry bag from the younger'a petite fingers, making an attempt to squeeze out the right amount of icing. Just as he was about to put it on the cake, his hands were stopped by a pair of smaller ones, choosing to guide him instead.

"here, lemme help" Joongie said shyly, not wanting the decorations to turn out ugly. He enjoyed the warmth of his hyung's hands in his own.

They were so close, Hwa could smell the younger's hair and perfume. Just like he imagined, even the boy's scent was extra sweet.
He smiled and let himself be guided by the skilful cook, enjoying the little skinship it brought. That is when he remembered.

"i almost forgot i bought something for you, pretty boy" Hwa left the younger, making his back hit now cold air, already missing the others warmth.
