Say you love me, please (Yeonbin fic)

<Chapter Three: Over You>

That evening, after Soobin had agreed to dating Yeonjun, the pink hair boy seemed too flustered, and surely took his time on processing what the taller boy said.

The sight of the wide eyed boy in front of him did look unusually intriguing and so soobin offered the latter a smile and had asked for his number without any hesitation.

Only then, the pink hair boy regained his posture and has awkwardly shoved him his phone.

After exchanging their numbers, in hope of making the the other boy less tense, Soobin suggested if they could walk together while chattering and the latter had bashfully but nonetheless agreed.

"So what's your name? And how do you know me?"

The taller initiated the conversation while they stroll through the walking path beside the downtown road, which was lit up in radiant city night lights. The downtown was starting to buzz with life as people from various places are going back from work to their respective homes. Somehow the usual desolation chanting behind his every steps felt a bit tolerable today.

"ahh I am yeonjun. Choi yeonjun"

The latter answered, now calmer and more composed beside Soobin.

"we go to the same university and I always saw you in the campus with your guitar, when you were singing every Friday. It's kinda embarrassing to admit but um I fell in love with your songs so I keep peeking at you from afar and later, I might have um developed a crush on you "

Yeonjun finished with an eye smile that lifted his little cheeks up. His small nose now red from the coldness of the night. His tender looking fingers now holding the sweater sleeves so tight, resulting in sweater paws.

It was an endearing sight, Soobin noted.

"Ah we have the same surname then. Haha I didn't notice you though, I never thought someone would be listening to my songs.. glad to know you like it though."

"yes , I love them very much. But um may I ask who you were singing for?- I don't mean to be nosy though it's alright if you are not comfortable with telling me about it"

The nervous glances that the shorter boy was throwing him didn't go unnoticed - as though the boy was being extra careful around Soobin.

"oh it's fine, it's ok. It has been months , I should be moving on I guess" soobin reassured yet sounded conflicted .

"they were songs about my lov- my ex, who died 7 months ago. I am a music production major student so yea I do write songs sometimes and I ended up writing some songs about him. I missed him after all " 

The pain evident in his voice might have betrayed his composure because yeonjun's expression turned saddened. 

"ahh I m sorry, soobin, I shouldn't have asked"

 As he stopped and look at the taller boy, Yeonjun looked genuinely sad. Soobin could only offer him a sad smile.

"it's alright yeonjun. I will text you later then, to discuss about the upcoming dates"

They were now at a crossroad.

Soobin was going to head to an opposite side of the road where his apartment is located while yeonjun appeared to be going the opposite way.

So they wished quiet goodbyes and parted ways there.

💫💫💫

Soobin, indeed, kept his promise and texted yeonjun on the night they first talked.

Soobin, he was eager to distract himself- to start moving on with his life and managed to convince himself that this would be a good opportunity to force a change of heart.

And so he, without hesitation, agreed to date the pink haired boy.

Honestly, Yeonjun was okay .

On the first week of talking, he got to know that yeonjun is an art major student, a year older than him and that he's really famous among teenagers online.

Yeonjun has a twitter where he posts his weekly artworks and it has more than 50k followers. 

It was not surprising though, the pink hair boy own very unique artworks with pastel colors that seem to be engulfed deep meanings.

Soobin even followed the account since he love seeing creative works even if he, himself was not an artsy person.

Unlike most people, Yeonjun did not talk much about himself besides his interest for arts and when asked about his family, the boy only told the younger that they were working overseas. Soobin did not push for any more information.

 When yeonjun told him that he had never dated before, Soobin was met with a suprise.

He wondered why though?

Maybe because yeonjun was an introvert ?

It hardly was believable since yeonjun, truth to be told, is a very pretty boy.

It could be proven at times when Soobin couldn't help but found himself staring at yeonjun- his plump lips every time they were at the cafeteria together with his squad- soobin has previously invited yeonjun to join him and his friend group consisting of a silver haired boy called Taehyun and a tall boy with chocolate colored hair, Huening Kai.

The poor pink haired boy, for real, does not have any friends -yeonjun indeed is an introvert and it was amusing at how yeonjun even found the courage to asked the taller boy out.

Thankfully, Soobin's friend group also have accepted yeonjun willingly, it was obvious that they were as eager as Soobin- for him to moved on with his life.

However, Soobin still suffers from breakdowns at night.

Because he still misses beomgyu?

Meanwhile, Yeonjun has been a very sweet person to him. The older also understood about his distresses and even offered to call him every night- for distraction .

Therefore, Soobin non-apologetically dialed up the pink hair boy every time he misses Beomgyu, which is basically everyday.

The taller would always rumble about his regrets and yeonjun would always patiently listen - comforted him, told him all the positive things that could possibly calm his distraught nerves.

Talking with yeonjun was easy.

Yeonjun was okay

I could learn to love him , Soobin always reminded himself.

But deep down he might have yearned for a brown haired boy with chocolate eyes that sometimes resembles a cute bear.

Not someone with foxy features...
