wonwoo stopped on the way to the kitchen, "why your room?" he asked. mingyu playfully shrugged, "maybe 'cause it's my room." he saw wonwoo visibly twitch.

"i-i...i'll be there." and off he pattered to the sink. mingyu chuckled and headed to his room, turning on the air conditioning so wonwoo could feel like cuddling into him. maybe, hopefully.

a little later, wonwoo's little steps were approaching mingyu's door. mingyu was already under the covers, scrolling on his phone when wonwoo opened the door. he looked up, locked eyes and smiled as he put his phone away.

mingyu opened up the blanket, wonwoo immediately getting under and closer to mingyu. it felt... weird. weird for the both of them to give and take so easily. mingyu felt a little dizzy.

"why did you ask me to go to your room, hyung?"

the question was innocent. it was anything but when mingyu saw wonwoo's face.

the older was sitting cross-legged, the blanket over his legs. mingyu was lying down on his left, in the most relaxed and easygoing position, awaiting his answer. "uh..." wonwoo took too long to give his answer.

"i wanted to tell you things."

"oh yeah? what kind of things?"

mingyu looked up at wonwoo, who was picking at his fingers from anxiety. frowning at this, mingyu sat up and held wonwoo's hands apart.

"don't do that, hyung. you'll ruin your pretty fingers."

shit. it didn't mean to come out that way but it fucking did. mingyu saw wonwoo's eyes glaze over for a second, before his thoughts were released in a shaky breath. "yeah... ye-yeah okay... s-sure... uhm-"

mingyu's hands...

"will you let go?" wonwoo asked, looking up slightly.

"do you want me to?"

"no." wonwoo nearly choked on his answer as mingyu locked their fingers together while he gave his simple answer. it was all so fast.

"it's just us, hyung. what are you so afraid for?" mingyu's tone was sweet but dangerous. dangerously asking wonwoo to fall somewhere deep and dark. somewhere he knew he won't ever have a chance of escaping.

mingyu looked into wonwoo's eyes, the afternoon sunlight making them a light brown honey hue. he couldn't help but smile. wonwoo instinctively smiled too. had anyone walked in right then, the two would've looked like they were in love.

"mingyu..." wonwoo didn't know what he was going to say when he said his name. but the younger's low "hm...?" made wonwoo's head spin and it landed on:

"you called me cute."

mingyu chuckled, letting wonwoo's hands fall to pinch his cheeks softly. "because you are, hyung." wonwoo felt heat where mingyu touched him. maybe he could feel it too...?

mingyu hoped wonwoo would say it first, just so he could be more of an ass and tease him through his own confession. it may have been cruel but, shit, mingyu loved doing that shit to wonwoo.

at some point, mingyu got wonwoo to lie down next to him. with the light perfectly hitting his features again, wonwoo with his curly hair looked even cuter.

mingyu's eyes drifted to wonwoo's beautifully lit up ones. he thought about how wonwoo must've been feeling a bit warm from the sun despite being under the covers and in an air-conditioned room. he also hoped wonwoo was as flustered as he was inside.

"hyung..."

wonwoo could feel the sun in his eyes and the heat under the blankets. mingyu was so warm...

wonwoo swore he almost fell asleep if mingyu hadn't lightly touched his face with a soft "hyung..." wonwoo sprung back to life.

"i-i'm sorry, oh my god." mingyu laughed, "no, i get it. the afternoon sun's in your eyes and i guess i must have a very comfortable bed." he smiled cheekily. the corners of wonwoo's lip curled ever so slightly. but kim mingyu would always catch it.

"yeah, you're really comfortable." wonwoo felt his heart explode into pieces. did he just...?

mingyu panicked. shit, so wonwoo really did that?

"are you getting brave now?" mingyu said. wonwoo gulped, "i..."

"yeah. actually." mingyu was taken aback. now he was confused. was wonwoo actually reciprocating his advances or was he just fooling around as a response?

"kim mingyu, i'm in love with you."

mingyu choked on his breath, "shit- wonu-hyung...!"

wonwoo looked indifferent but he was also visibly trying to keep himself together.

"and i'd really like to be with you," wonwoo inhaled a shaky breath. "but only if you're willing to give me your heart too."

wonwoo looked like he was going to cry. he felt so stressed at that moment, but he knew it was best to let it out now. he didn't know why now. it just had to be now.

mingyu immediately reached over and brought wonwoo into his embrace. he heard wonwoo's shaky exhale, like he had just cried, and mingyu's heart clenched.

"yeah, of course. i'd give you my heart any day..." mingyu chuckled and a tear slipped from his closed eyes. "hyung, you're so precious."
