"Taeyong..." Ten replied back wiping his eyes which were starting to tear up. Jaehyun was definitely awkward and he didn't know what was goin on But he tried to calm the situation. 

"Whatever is going on, Let's talk on the table. I'll stop my shift now" Jaehyun messaged the coworker who was on his shift now and gently took Ten and Taeyong to sit on a table. 

"So...Start" Jaehyun asked breaking the awkward silence. Taeyong looked up ad Just hugged Ten, Who was taken back but hugged back. Jaehyun frowned at the sudden affection and crossed his arms. 

"Can someone tell me what's going on?" Jaehyun asked when Taeyong pulled himself back from Ten. 

"Ten and Me are friends from years back. But because of me being gay my parents kicked me out.....


"You disgusting homosapien. Move to a different country. I don't want to see you anywhere near here. GO!" Taeyong received a hit. 

"Yes Father" Taeyong being immature and not knowing what was going on in his life nodded and took the money his "parents" gave moving to a different country. He was also forced to change his numbers and couldn't contact anyone. Not even ten. Taeyong got a new phone and his parents kept a track of who he was contacting. 

Ten was his best friend from childhood. Ten was the only person Taeyong trusted more than anyone or anything. Ten was always there with Taeyong in difficult times. Ten honestly felt very bad for this poor boy who was his seatmate. 

Taeyong always wore hoodies and covered himself in classes. He was the quiet kid, had no friends. But Ten being stubborn he fought for Taeyong to be his friend. And Taeyong was so grateful that Ten fought for them to be friends. 

"I am sorry Ten...I couldn't text you or contact you..." Taeyong had tears as he spoke. He wiped them off and sniffles. Ten looked at the male who was looking down and smiled. 

"I am so happy i met you again, Tae. We are just meant to be huh" Ten chuckled lightly causing Taeyong to look up and chuckle also.  Ten wanted to bring the mood up and so he smirked. 

"Ok, well then. I'll talk later. Enjoy your date~" Ten said as he sped walked to the counter leaving both males in blushes. 

"Yah! ten!" Taeyong shouted at the male who giggled serving the drinks. Jaehyun chuckled cutely at the male who looked cute while blushing. 

"So what do you wanna do?" Jaehyun asked and cooed when Taeyong looked at him with boba eyes cutely. 

"Let's go to the mall" Taeyong said excitedly to which Jaehyun chuckled and ruffled Taeyong's hair. 

"Cute. Alrite let's go." Taeyong was shocked. No one ever agreed to where he wanted to go well except his friends but this felt and was different. 

"Ten! I'm going to the mall With Tae!" Jaehyun yelled. There were no customers inside so he didn't care. Ten came out and smirked. 

"Giving nicknames already?" Taeyong turned red not knowing himself. Jaehyun glared at his friend. 

"Alright, We will be leaving now" Jaehyun said grabbing Taeyong's arms and heading for the door. Taeyong didn't worry about Jisung because he was with Baekhyun. 



"Which store do you wanna go first?"  Jaehyun asked and saw Taeyong pointing towards the plushie store with his eyes shined. 

"Cute"  Jaehyun said causing Taeyong to blush "Let's go" Jaehyun said cutely walking to the plushie store. 

"You look like you wanna buy the whole store" Jaehyun muttered at the boy who  was in awe at everything in the store

"Yes!Oh my. If i had that much money i would buy" Taeyong said and sighed. Jaehyun pinched his cheeks. 

"Choose 7 Plushies" 

"Why?" 

"Just do it, Yong" 

Taeyong chose the plushie's after 10 minutes and as Jaehyun told him he walked to the counter to put the plushies. 

"Jaehyun, Why are you paying. I can pay for myself"

"This is my treat" Jaehyun smiled brightly at the male who pouted in defeat. Jaehyun almost died seeing the other male pout. The lady on the counter smiled at the interactions of the two. 

"Are you two a couple?" Jaehyun choked on his saliva while Taeyong's eyes widened. 

"U-uh No ma'am. Just.....friends" Taeyong said smiling and Jaehyun nodded agreeing even though he felt disappointed and sad, he kept a smile on his face. 

"Sorry. You both look like a cute couple, So I thought you are one. Anyway, Here you go. Enjoy" The lady smiled and waved them a bye when they were leaving the shop. 

"Let's sit somewhere and get to know each other?" Jaehyun nodded at the question. They took the escalator and went to the food court. After a while, They sat on a table to eat. 

"So, I'm Taeyong. 20 years old. I attend SM university. My friends are Yuta, Doyoung. I like Ice cream or basically any sweet things and dogs" Taeyong finished and Jaehyun nodded making a mental note of everything. 

"I'm Jaehyun. 18 years old, I work at the cafe. I dropped University because my parents didn't have enough money. My friends are Ten, Sicheng, Taeil. I like cute boys" Jaehyun ended with a wink towards Taeyong who looked at him questionably. 

"Bad attempt in flirting" Taeyong responded, which caused Jaehyun to pout. 

"You aint cute. Stop it" Taeyong added teasing the other male who chuckled lightly. 

"Wait, Sicheng?" Taeyong asked  and Jaehyun nodded and raised an eyebrow. 

"Does he usually talk about someone named Yuta? Or does he go somewhere with someone?" Jaehyun then nodded. 

"Yeah, he talks about Yuta....Oh wait. So you're telling me we could have been friends months ago" Jaehyun then laughed and face palmed himself. 

"Apparently" Taeyong replied. 

"Alright, let's eat" Let's just say the rest of the day was amazing for both of them.
