The two boys made it back to the dorm. As they opened the door they noticed Jaemin smiling on the couch.
"Oh your back." Jaemin said as he stood up. "Did you buy anything good." the two boys stood there in silence. The plan needed to be kept a secret.
"Um..." before Jeno could make up an excuse, Jaemin's phone rung. Jaemin sighed as he picked it up.
"Hello? Oh yeah sure. I'll be there in 5." Jaemin put his phone away and turned back to Jeno and Jisung. "Apparently Jaehyun needs my help with something. I'll be back later, okay." he sighed. Jeno felt bad that Jaemin wasn't let in on what they were doing, but it would all work out in the end. Or he hoped so anyway.
Once Jaemin left, the two got to work on decorating. Jisung put up the bunting, and Jeno helped with blowing the balloons. Renjun came out of his room as he heard the rustling and talking of the two.
"Oh, so Jaehyun did what I asked him to." Renjun said as he helped put up the ribbons.
"That was you?" Jisung asked as he stuck the end of the bunting up.
"Yeah, I didn't think you'd be able to get him out the house. So I told Jaehyun of your plans, and he agreed to help." Renjun explained.
"Ohh! We should thank him later." Jisung said as he hung up a ribbon. "What do you think, Jeno?"
"Yeah, we should." was all Jeno said. His mind was elsewhere.
Did he make Jaemin happy?
•••
The faint click of a door could opening be heard as Jaemin entered the dorm. Immediately, his eyes were covered by a pair of hands.
"What are you-"
"Close your eyes and hold my wrists." the voice belonged to Jeno's. He removed his hands and Jaemin shut his eyes. He initially held Jeno's wrist, but he managed to slide his hand to his hand. After a short walk, Jeno spoke.
"Okay open your eyes in 3... 2... 1"
Jaemin opened his eyes and saw before him what the three boys had set up. He stood there in awe. His eyes focused on every part of the boys' work.
"Happy Birthday!" Jisung said as he popped a party popper, followed by Renjun. Jaemin ran up and hugged Jisung. "Ack!"
"Aww my Jisung~ Thank you so much~" the older boy said as he continued to hug Jisung, who was now struggling to get out. Jeno and Renjun laughed at the scene. The scene was homely, and all these boys were the family.
•••
A couple of hours later, both Jisung and Renjun had gone to bed.
"Renjun drunk too much." Jeno sighed as he cleared away bottles of alcohol. He looked around, hoping to find Jaemin. He wanted to spend time with him, but he didn't exactly know why. Jaemin, however, was not in the dorm. He was last seen sat on the couch, possibly drunk as well.
"Maybe he's there..." Jeno said to himself again. He put on a coat and headed to the roof of the building.
•••
Jeno opened the door and went up the stairs to the roof. At the top, the moonlight shone over Jaemin, who was stood next to the railing. The stars shone brightly, and there was no rain in sight.
Jaemin turned at the sound of Jeno's footsteps coming closer. The two said nothing and simply looked at the stars. However, both the boys felt the familiar feeling of butterflies, and neither of them knew the other felt the same.
"Do you ever get them?" Jaemin said, breaking the silence.
"Get what?"
"Butterflies." Jaemin kept looking up, but Jeno noticed a blush form on his cheeks and ears.
"What do you mean?" Jeno questioned, though Jeno already had an idea of what he meant.
"You know, when your stomach and heart go all funny because you..." Jaemin trailed off, unable to finish his sentence. He turned his head towards Jeno and the two locked eyes. Both boys blushed hard, unable to say the words they wanted to.
Jeno noticed the small features in Jaemin. How he was the same height as him, how his eyebrows and nose were perfect, how his hair fell perfectly on his face. How the gentle light from the moon fell on Jaemin's face. He was truly perfect.
"Yeah." was all Jeno said as he moved his hand to be intertwined with Jaemin's. The two understood what each other felt.
"They happen when you like someone." Jaemin finished his sentence from before and held Jeno's free hand. The two made eye contact.
"I guess what I'm trying to say is..."
"I like you" both boys spoke at the same time. Both boys then laughed a little before returning to look at each other. Both boys leant in.
And they shared a small kiss.
