How To Trap A Kiss [Stray Kids] ✓

Chapter 35

Hearing that, Jisung quickly runs to the second floor as if his life depends on it. Hyunjin who catches him in the act just sighs.

"Eh? Where is he? He was here having his dinner earlier." Mrs. Han states, clearly confused. "He probably needs to go to the toilet. Why don't you have some dinner too, Hyunjin-ah?"

The latter just smiles, refusing the offer politely. "I've had my dinner earlier."

"Go take a seat then, sweetheart. I'll tell Jisung-"

"Actually.. could you do me a favor, Mrs. Han?"

"Of course, darling. What is it?"

"Jisung-ah? Are you inside?" Her mother calls. "Hyunjin just came by to bring you some cheese cake."

"... Then he's returned to his house already?"

"Uhuh. Come down or I'll eat the cake."

"No freaking way!" He shouts.

Not even a second later, the squirrel opens the door, clearly takes the bait. He gasps when he sees Hyunjin in front of his door instead of his mother. And before he can close the door, the older steps inside.

Jisung's round eyes instantly look down, not daring to look at another figure that's currently inside his room. He walks backward, slowly step by step whenever the older approaches him. And as cliché as it sounds, his back, or rather his butt in his case, gently hits the chair.

The older, being a certified whipped boy he is, finds the action cute. He remembers how annoyed he was earlier when Jeongin told him the reason behind Jisung's abrupt change of behavior. But now that the younger is in front of him, all he can think of is to hug the smaller boy.

And so he does.

He can feel the squirrel flinches at the sudden action before a pair of tiny hands clutch at his hoodie from behind, discreetly hugging him back.

"I deserve hours of cuddle." Hyunjin mutters. "That's why I invite myself to sleep over tonight.. and you can't say no to that."
