Deep In My Heart (YeonBin) ✔️

2.

"Hm, this will look good on you."

It seemed that when it came to fashion, Yeonjun had impeccable taste and a critical eye. Of course, looking at his clothes, it wasn't a wonder- Soobin loved his outfits. Even now, he was wearing these form fitting dark clothes that accentuated his thin waist and slight muscles.

"Also this one, ooh, try this one out!" Yeonjun wasn't looking at him, just stacking clothes on his own arm. After he had six outfits collected in his hands, he dumped them into Soobin's hands, who scrambled to make sure he didn't drop any. "Go, go, shoo! We don't have much time, I need to check some more out and I'll give them to you while you're in the dressing room so we can save time and meet up with the others."

"Um, hyung, I think this much is enough," Soobin said, pushing his arms tighter so that nothing falls. "I trust your taste, and I just need to check the size and we're good to go."

"Oh, okay," Yeonjun seemed a bit disappointed that their shopping had to come to a stop. "Okay, try them on, I'll rate them out of 10 and keep the top 3 ones, okay?"

"Okay," Soobin mumbled, liking that Yeonjun cared about something as minimalistic as his clothes. He rushed to the changing rooms to quickly wear the first outfit before coming out.

"Hmm, no," Yeonjun shook his head. Soobin's face dropped into a pout.

"I don't look nice? I thought I did," Soobin said more to himself than Yeonjun but Yeonjun heard him.

"No, no," Yeonjun replied in haste. "You do look nice but it's just that it doesn't compliment your body as it should. Your body has a very nice shape, it needs something that can make your curves stand out..."

The way Yeonjun was talking so passionately about his body shape really left Soobin speechless. Nobody had ever actually noticed him in that way, let alone talk about him with so much fascination and it was doing things to Soobin-

"...so don't feel bad," Yeonjun was too busy rambling to notice the fond look Soobin was giving him. "But, but if you like it, I'll buy it, that's not a problem! Do you like it?"

"No, it's okay," Soobin's dimples appeared right then as he flashed his most genuine and happiest smile to him and Yeonjun's breath hitched. Shit, he was gorgeous. Really, really gorgeous and to think he- "...hyung? Hyung?!"

Soobin was so close to him how, his hand waving in front of him as he looked at the older boy in concern. Yeonjun automatically took a step back, realising that they were close enough to kiss if he just moved ahead a few inches.

For god's sake, they met just 2 or 3 days ago and now he's thinking about how the blue-haired boy is gorgeous when he smiles and cute when he blushes and that concerned look and it was all too much for Yeonjun, who was used to being the one who was always calm.

"Hyung, are you not feeling well?" Soobin asked, biting his lip. Yeonjun's eyes flicked downwards at that motion but he forced himself to look only at Soobin's very expressive eyes. "Should we-"

"No, no, I'm perfectly fine," Yeonjun reassured him. "Don't worry, just go change quickly. It's nearing our meeting time."

Soobin stared at him for a few seconds before nodding and turning around to go back to the dressing room. Once he was inside, Yeonjun sighed and plopped down on the wooden stool that was placed outside the dressing rooms.

Maybe he had finally met someone who could make him lose his cool.

When they had finally finished buying three outfits for Soobin, the two of them started on the walk to the small inn they had decided to meet at. Their steps were slow and leisurely and Soobin built up the courage to answer the question Yeonjun had posed to him at the start of their shopping.
