At the pottery café:

Chan entered the place and went up to the front counter where a woman was placing decorations up on a display shelf. She noticed the two had walked in, and turned around. "Hey, are you the reservation for right now?" Chan nodded and she walked onto the back, grabbing two aprons, and handing it to them. "You both can wait for me over there." She pointed to three stools, each with a pottery spinner in front.

Jeongin followed him and sat onto one of the stools, putting his apron on. "This place looks cool." The younger stated.

"It is, we get to listen to music and just completely zone out while making art, you'll leave this place feeling relieved. The owner is a friend of mine, she's just going to show you the basics before we start." Bangchan explained.

"Oh yay! Thanks for bringing me here with you." Jeongin smiled, and took a hold of one of the olders hands.

"Of course," Bangchan kissed Jeongins forehead.

"Hello!! You can call me Hye Lin, I'm going to just teach you some basics. Mostly just how to put the clay on the surface of the machine and how to work your hands around the clay. I'll sit in front of you, just copy as I'm doing on my own spinner." She says with a smile, doing as she said.

Jeongin nodded and started  copying what Hye Lin did and eventually, the clay in front of them turned into a small pot. Well at least Jeongin's, because Hye Lin's and Bangchan's actually were regular sized. Unlike Jeongin's, whos was pinch sized. He sighed and looked down. "How did mine end up so small." He frowned.

"It's cute!" Bangchan laughed.

"It really is, do you think you got the hang of it Jeongin?" Hye Lin asked.

"Mhm, I think so thanks." Jeongin smiled. 

"Alright, if you guys need more clay just ask. Tell me when you guys are done so I can put them in the oven." She says, cleaning her hands with a rag beside her seat, before leaving.

"Okay, I wanna make a cup for you." Jeongin says, starting his work with another block of clay.

"I'm going to make you a mug, then I'll paint a tiny you on it after we bake our things." Chan said, making a cup shape with his hand around the clay to shape it.

After they're done painting:

"Here you go, I put hearts on it and made it with all of my love so I hope you like it." Jeongin hands the older the cup filled with hearts on it as well as a little wolf on the side.

Bangchan examined the cup. "Awe this is adorable." He smiled as his heart melted. Bangchan handed his mug over to Jeongin. "I put a small fox on the front and your name under, with some clouds because your hair is soft." He said.

Jeongin pouted at how thoughtful his boyfriend was and then took the mug from him, hugging it not wanting too much so it wouldn't break. "I love it thank you Channie!" The younger hugged the older.

Chan smiled and hugged Jeongin back. "Let's go home? I've paid for everything in advance since I booked this before." He said.

"Okay, lets go." The younger smiled, holding the older's hand as his boyfriend guided them both into his car, and they both sat down in it. The older began to drive away into the already night sky.

"Did you have fun this afternoon?" Chan asked, looking at Jeongin through the rearview mirror.

"Yeah, I really liked it thanks babe." Jeongin left a quick peck on his boyfriend's cheek. "Got anything else planned for tonight?" Jeongin asks.

"What would you want to do? I thought you'd be tired by now, I guess I was too quick to judge." Chan laughed, pulling into his driveway.

"I don't know, but I'm not tired so maybe something... exciting?" Jeongin suggested.

Bangchan turned the car off and unbuckled his seat before looking over at Jeongin. "Something exciting, alrighty then." He said.
