Unicorn bullets

Groaning in frustration, the chestnut haired man gave the older two their ice cream of choice, one mint chocolate and one plain chocolate, and grudgingly shoved it into their faces.

Yes, Beomgyu and Taehyun lost to the bet. As expected from their lack of experience in the art industry.

Well, not gonna lie, Beomgyu had pretty decent skills to work with and made a pretty artwork with Taehyun. The latter, meanwhile, was lost throughout the said competition between them and the other two and ended up messing up the artwork that his partner made. Taehyun smiled sheepishly and scratched his nape based on the happenings earlier.

The blonde saw Beomgyu sulking outside the convenient store, sitting on the vacant seat, visibly upset and pouting. He just gave the ice creams to the taller, who was now at the other side of the store, enjoying his ice cream with Yeonjun while debating on why he was eating toothpaste with chocolate.

Taehyun went closer to the pouting boy and sat beside him, who looked away in return. He tenderly smiled at the older's cuteness and proceeded to talk to him. "Hyung, are you still upset over the bet?" He sickeningly asked gingerly, appealing to the older who blushed at the way Taehyun called him.

Still, Beomgyu maintained composure. "Why wouldn't I? I spent my lunch money on buying oblivious idiots ice cream. Mint chocolate isn't even worth my money," he rolled his eyes and pointed to their direction shortly with his pouted lips.

"Hey, I heard that! Choi Beomgyu!" Yeonjun jumps up into their conversation as he heard of someone insulting his beloved mint chocolate ice cream.

"Go away, Yeonjun! No one cares!" Beomgyu shouts back to the older who decided to just let it slide and enjoy his snack in peace. "Beommie, I'm sorry, okay? I just didn't really know how to paint so i just put scribbles in there to make it more, um, abstract," he thought of his excuse rather quickly and tried to think of a way to make it up to Beomgyu.

"I have something important to tell you later," the chestnut haired boy finally fixes his gaze onto Taehyun's glowing eyes, raising his eyebrows up in curiosity. "But only if you stop acting like a baby over a stupid bet," a slight blush creeps into Beomgyu's face in embarrassment.

"I-it's not stupid! My lunch money was on the line! That's clearly unfair," he tried to justify himself hurriedly which made Taehyun chuckle. "Well, I guess I'm not going to say it later then. Let your curiosity kill you for all I care," he said with full mockery in his tone and shrugged nonchalantly, raising his eyebrows and closing his eyes.

Beomgyu held both of Taehyun's shoulders abruptly which made the latter flutter his eyes open widely. "N-no, tell me! I, uh, I'm not upset about that stupid bet, psh! Look, see," he put on a wide, awkward-ass smile, trying to appeal to the boy in his hold who giggled while prettily closing his eyes softly and nodded.

"Sure, fine. I'll tell you later today, Gyu Hyung," the blonde smiled sheepishly and got up from his seat, urging the flustered man to stand up as well by reaching his hands out to him. Beomgyu gladly took his small, soft hand and stood up beside Taehyun. They went near the other two who was just finishing up their ice creams while conversing.

"We're going to get going first, if that's okay for you two? I'll get Beomgyu to cool down for a bit since he's upset with losing his lunch money," Taehyun chuckled while the aforementioned male nudged his side, embarrassed.

Soobin and Yeonjun nodded. "Sure thing! Go and enjoy the rest of your day together. Me and Soobin will be buying something from the convenient store so we'll be hanging out here for a while," the older of them all kindly said to the two younger ones and smiled warmly. "Bye bestie! Enjoy your date with Taehyun!" Soobin added, making Beomgyu blush once again but nevertheless, both males grinned and bowed as they jogged away, Beomgyu's hand in Taehyun's tight but soft grasp.

Beomgyu blushed a bright shade of red and let himself intertwine their fingers with each other, matching up perfectly like missing puzzle pieces.

I'm sorry for the very short chapter as I just managed to squeeze this into my school works. It's been pilling up for the past few days and I might not update for a while. Thank you for your understanding!^^
