I will keep you company

Hyunjin drove Jeongin to the coffee shop. For a whole week he would have the boy for himself. Now he had the chance to know him better.

"Clean the tables for me." Jeongin said, throwing a rag at Hyunjin.

"What?" Hyunjin asked stunned, catching the rag.

"Chan told me I can boss you all I wanted, so I am getting a good use of you." Jeongin smiled and turned around to prepare for the day.

"Why don't you make one of your waiters do it?" Hyunjin asked, starting to clean the tables anyway.

"They came at lunch, because till then the place is not that full." Jeongin answered.

When Hyunjin was done with the cleaning, he sat at the bar with Jeongin who was preparing something. After a few minutes, Jeongin placed a cup of coffee in front of Hyunjin.

"It's so strange now, when Chan is not here. I got used of him being my first costumer early in the morning." Jeongin said.

"Well, now I am here to keep you company until Chan returns." Hyunjin said smiling, taking a sip of his drink.

"Do you want to quit?" Changbin asked, looking at the road ahead.

"No. Ofcourse no. We are getting close to our goal. I can't give up now." Chan told him.

"I mean, leave the Familia. Start a normal life. Have a family." Changbin said.

"You know damn well how you can get out of this Binnie." Chan told him, looking through the window.

"Can't you just talk with the Don. He wants you out of the picture. Wouldn't he be happy if you leave?" Changbin asked, glancing at Chan.

"I know too much to just let me leave like that. All his providers, informers. Not to mention all his dirty work. And I've lived this life for so long, that I can't just adapt to the normal one." Chan said.

"You are doing pretty fine when Jeongin is around." Changbin said.

To that Chan only hummed. Ofcourse he was doing all right around Jeongin. The pretty boy was his fresh breath of air. The future that he didn't know that he needed, but would never have.

Hyunjin felt like a high school girl looking at his crush. Jeongin looked handsome while doing his job. Hyunjin couldn't avert his eyes even for a second. The day went fast. They had simple conversation when Jeongin was just chilling at the bar.

Indeed, at lunch time the shop was full. And this time the female costumers were more than normal. And Jeongin knew why, he saw his social media acc. It was full of pictures of his shop and of particular handsome man sitting at the bar all day.

"Get up and come with me to the storage." Jeongin said to Hyunjin.

Hyunjin followed him, no question asked. Jeongin put a chare in the middle of the room, gesturing to Hyunjin to sit on it. And he did. Jeongin started combing his long hair with his fingers. Sending electricity to Hyunjin's body at the gentle touch. The was the first time the pretty boy touching him. Hyunjin only leaned further into the touch, closing his eyes, relaxing. After Jeongin decided that he was done, he put Hyunjin's hair in to a ponytail and moving in front of him.

"Do you have any makeup by any chances?" Jeongin asked.

"What? Yes, in my bag." He said surprised, reaching out with his hand, gesturing to Jeongin to give him his bag.

Jeongin went for the bag, but started searching instead. When he found what he needed, he stood before Hyunjin again.

"I want you to close your eyes." Jeongin said, opening the palette of shadows.

And Hyunjin again did as told, no question asked. Soon he felt Jeongin's fingers on his face. The boy applied the shadows with his fingers, since he didn't have anything else on him now. The touch was gentle, even more gentle then when Jeongin brushed his hair. Hyunjin enjoyed it so much.

"Open your eyes and look up." Jeongin said, getting Hyunjin out of his trance.

Hyunjin did so, but for some reason he wanted to see Jeongin while applying the makeup. So, he did, and he was mazed by it. Jeongin looked so focused while being gentle with his touch, trying not to poke Hyunjin in the eye with his finger. Soon Hyunjin without realizing started to stare more then normal at the boy. He was so close to his face. He was really pretty up close, but his eyes fell to Jeongin's lips.

And that's when the boy poked him in the eye, making Hyunjin cry in pain.

"I told you to look up, not down. Are you all right?" Jeongin asked concerned.

"Yeah, I am all good now." He said standing up.

"Let me see your eye." Jeongin said, placing his hand on Hanjin's face.

His eye was little red, but everting was good. No damage done.

Jeongin started searching for something and soon returned to Hyunjin. He had an apron in his hands.

"Why do you need this for." He asked.

"I have so many costumers because of you. So, I will use this chance. The social media went crazy, because you are here all day. Imagine what will happen when they knew you are a waiter here." Jeongin was way to exited.

He began to tie the apron around his waist, making Hyunjin to stay still. The boy was way to close to him. Not that he minded.

"How can you have such a thin waist. Its sinful." Jeongin said, placing his hands on Hyunjin's waist after he was done with the apron.

Now Hyunjin felt his whole face going hot. He hoped it wasn't as red as he felt it would be. How could Jeongin be so bold?

"Ok now. Can you hold a tray?" Jeongin asked, placing one in Hyunjin's hands.

"I've never done this before." He answered.

"Well, you need to learn fast then." Jeongin said, winking at him.
