Sunoo swung hangs with Sunghoon while they walked together, students murmuring and dispersing as school finally came to an end.

The elder boy has quickly swept him away from his friends, getting generously clingy and thus making Sunoo's heart flutter. It was, again, small things. But these small things were blessings, and they only added more optimism to Sunoo's hope for reciprocation.

"Sunoo," Sunghoon began, slowing their walking pace and turning to look at the boy with the most charming face he could manage. 

Sunoo could feel his heart beat faster, the elder's kind gaze sending an adrenaline rush through his body. Here came the winning question; perhaps a request of going to the park together, or maybe even just hanging out one-on-one at a café?

"Can me, Heeseung, and Jaehyun have our movie night at your house?"

Was it bad that the young boy felt a bit disheartened?

Though he hoped it didn't show on his face, Sunoo was admittedly a bit less excited. While Sunghoon began explaining the reasons to why it had to be at his house, the younger began thinking.

Was this the only reason why Sunghoon came to pick him up from class? He shouldn't have gotten his hopes up...

He forced a whine out of his mouth, loosening the grip he had on Sunghoon's hand. "Jaehyun sunbae again? Can't I have this to myself even in my own house?"

Sunghoon laughed at his tone, but then stopped their walking. Sunoo would have kept wondering why, but the way the elder's hands came to his face and cupped it quickly summed up what he was doing.

He stared at Sunghoon with bewildered eyes, mostly because he didn't expect the boy to get so close so quick. It was only natural that he felt his cheeks get warm.

"Aw, please, Sunoo? Pretty please?" Sunghoon pouted, feigning the expression of an innocent puppy.

The junior really needed to stop being so weak to him.

Sunoo pushed him away, pressing his hands onto his cheeks to cool them down. Grumbling, he responded with a small 'fine'. 

Though, he didn't feel so underwhelmed as before. He trusted that, while a bit dense, Sunghoon wouldn't exclude him, and would make sure to keep his spirits high. With a yelp coming from the younger, Sunghoon eventually dragged him over to his friends near the exit of the school gates.

The boys all boarded Sunghoon and Sunoo's bus, for that was the one that would allow them to reach their destination.

The first few moments were of bliss.

"Damn, Kim, is your mom an interior designer or something? This house looks like it's made up of those pre-set rooms you'd see at Ikea." Jake asked, awe laced into his tone as he crunched on some snacks Heeseung had bought for them.

Sunghoon's two friends were sitting on his couch, the way they snuggled into the cushions a telltale sign that they, perhaps, enjoyed the comfort it brought. Sunghoon looked at Sunoo with a grateful smile, ruffling his hair. 

"Thanks again, Sunoo." He whispered into the boy's ear, giving his shoulder a quick squeeze.

The action made his chest constrict, the only response Sunoo could give being a smile.

Within a few minutes, Sunghoon had gotten situated to the left of Jaehyun at his end of the couch. The three boys, with their eager wide eyes and snacks as companions, looked like a triplet set of chipmunks. It forced Sunoo to muffle his laugh, the youngest of that trio only looking at him with one of his dazzling smiles.
