Don't skip your breakfast, it's bad for you. 💛

"Tss." rejun can't hide his smile as he type his reply to the tanned male

Thanks. 🙂

He is preparing for work and he doesn't know why he is looking forward seeing this guy again.

Well they have been somewhat 'friends' because compare to their first official meeting well he has been talking to donghyuck a little bit more, they even exchange numbers.

After donghyuck's visit with his friends in the convenience store he is working, it has been a routine for the tanned male to pass by the store everyday to buy foods and of course to see renjun.

"Look who's excited to see his prince?" Ningning tease the older chinese

"He's not my prince!" Renjun defended

"Oh really? That is why you're smiling like a fool early this morning?!" Ningning stuck her tounge out before teasingly look at renjun

Renjun just roll his eyes and decided to take his bath before eating breakfast.

"You look so happy this past few days." doyoung spoke

Renjun look at doyoung who is smiling proudly and he can feel the heat to his face down to his neck

"I'm not saying you don't because we know you do despite what happened, it's just that you look more livelier than before." Doyoung really sounded like a proud mom

"I mean who wouldn't get happy if you have your crush wrap around your fingers." jaehyun said teasing renjun

Renjun just cover his face in embarassment because of the word jaehyun have mention, "Hyung were just friends! I do like him but not the way you think!" the chinese male said.

Jaehyun just mockingly nod at what renjun has said then recieve a light smack on arm by his husband, "Stop teasing him jaehyun!" doyoung said then jaehyun look at him pouting his lips looking like a child who just have his candy stolen

"You'll be the one i'll tease later." jaehyun said with a sly grin on his face while wiggling his eyebrows

Ningning furrowed her brows in disgust while renjun is chuckling with the couple's behavior

"Ewww dad were in the dining table!" the chinese female said

~~

Renjun is now walking on his way to the convenient store when his phone rang then stop his tracks and clear his throat first before answering the phone call.

"What?"

"You sound like a grumpy grandpa renjun." He heard the tanned male chuckle on the other line, "By the way i'm already here at your workplace talking to yuqi." the chinese male could visualize donghyuck's smile while saying that

"Okay." renjun said rolling his eyes before ending the call

The chinese male is smiling all throughout his walk but frown immediately as he arrive at the store because he doesn't want donghyuck to think that he is excited to see him even though he really is.

"Renjun!" the tanned male greeted him as soon as he enter the store

"Why are you here?" he ask grumpily even though deep inside he is happy to see him

"Oh come on! Its not like you don't always see me!" donghyuck said pouting cutely

Renjun trying to hide his smile by concealing it with a stern look, "that's the point, you always come here!" he said proceeding to the counter

Yuqi cooed at the sight of the two males bickering. Donghyuck looks like a clingy boyfriend who is asking for attention,on the other hand renjun looks like the boyfriend who shows that he is annoyed from the outside but secretly loving the way their lover is clinging to them.

"Okay love birds, I will leave you both here." renjun widened his eyes with the name she address them, "Manager nim, i'll go ahead!" then walk as jongin wave his hand

"Were not love birds!" renjun almost shouted

Yuqi stop in front of the glass walls and give renjun a thumbs up then continue to walk while laughing her heart out.

Donghyuck is now at the cashier front leaning his elbows to the cashier table while staring at the boy in front of him.

"What else are you going to do here? You already saw me." renjun said focusing on his eyes on the phone because he really can't look at the other male's eyes as he felt like an ice cream melting with the warmness of his stare.

The tanned male now put hand to his chin pretending to think about it, "To buy food and to stare at you maybe." the chinese male now had his eyes on donghyuck who's now smiling sweetly at him

Renjun just roll his eyes to the latter then sigh, "Just buy what you need here then just go and stop pestering me, can't you see? i'm working!" renjun try his best to sound angry but donghyuck just laugh because he thinks that renjun looks like a child who doesn't want to get distracted with what he's doing.

"Awww you're so cute renjun!" the tanned male cooed at they way renjun glares at him

"And who gives you the permission to stay here by the way?" renjun remark sassily, "For your information, this is a convenient store not a mall where you can stay as long as you like!" he added

The tanned male laugh wholeheartedly at the sassiness of the boy in front of him, "Your manager, he said I can stay here as long as I want."  he look at jongin who is busily taking care of some papers, "Right mr. jongin?" the said male turn to him then nod his head as a confirmation.

Renjun just sigh in defeat he saw what his manager do. "Fine, just don't bother me while i'm working." the tanned male now looks like a happy dog who gets a treat as a reward from his owner

Donghyuck is now seated at one of the table inside the store eating, watching renjun work and occassionally taking his phone to scroll on his social medias.

Renjun's shift is over and now he is preparing his things to leave and go home.

"You're going home now?" donghyuck ask as he followed the chinese male from behind

"Yeah, and you should too." renjun said without looking at the tanned male

"No."

Renjun turn his around the tanned male who looks serious while following him. "What? where are you going then?" he ask diverting his attention again to the street

"I want to walk you home." renjun widen his eyes as he turn to face the tanned male who is now smiling at him.

"You what?!" trying to comprehend with what he has heard

"I said, I want to walk you home." the tanned male confirm
