My 'Straight' Roommate (YiZhan/ZhanYi) [on hold]

22. Plan A [i do]

(short update, sorry for mistakes, enjoy !)

Yibo couldn't get Seungyoun's words out of his head.
"Do you like Xiao Zhan?"

For the rest of the day, he was thinking about it and asked himself the same question repeatedly.

He didn't even realize when did he fell asleep, the moment he woke up, he smelled something delicious.

He absent-mindedly walked into the dining room and as soon as his eyes laid onto the table, he exclaimed,
"Pancakes!!!" He didn't care if he sounded childish, he would kneel in front of his favorite food.

He sat down and stared at the food. Only when he looked up, he caught his housemate was staring at him, causing the latter to cough awkwardly.

"I was going to wake you up. I need to go somewhere for awhile and probably will stay out late.. I fixed you a simple breakfast but for lunch and dinner.. Can figure them out yourself?"

While Xiao Zhan was struggling with his words, Yibo paid no attention to them. His eyes were glued on the housemate's slender figure. He couldn't look away as he was mesmerized with what the guy was wearing.

"Pretty.."

"So- Wait, what did you say?"

"The pancakes! They're pretty!" Flustered, Yibo laughed nervously and munched down the food.

"Oh... Glad you like it" Though Xiao Zhan said that, Yibo could hear the faint disappointed tone.

Yibo cleared his throat before asking nonchalantly,
"You're all dressed up, are you going on a date?"

Xiao Zhan made a surprised face before looking away.
"I'm going to a wedding, and with a date, so I guess you're right?" He answered calmly.

Well, Yibo was the exact opposite. He felt his heart ached as he slowly put away the cutleries he was holding.

Xiao Zhan looked at him in a questioning manner and Yibo simply stated that he's full.

As Yibo locked the door of his room, he slumped onto the floor.
"What's wrong with me? Is this where I say "I think I'm really in love with him"? No, it can't be... Right?" Yibo felt like he's going crazy.

Then, he heard the front door was being opened. He immediately stood up and ran out of his room.

"Ge!" Xiao Zhan halted in his steps.

"Do you need anything?"

'Can you please stay?'

"Yibo?"

'I don't want you to go'

"Are you okay?"

'I think I...'

"I'm running late, my date's waiting-"

"Have fun."

"..."

"I'll eat out later." Yibo got back into his room and threw himself onto the bed. He heard the sound of the door clicking and a tear escaped from his eyes.

"Shoot. I really do"

[Plan A: Yibo needs to figure out whether he has feeling for Xiao Zhan or not.
