beautiful.

it was a word chanhee has used countless times, but never about himself.

but he felt beautiful.

younghoon had helped him pick out an outfit, and as much as he wanted to hate it, he just couldn't.

it was simple, really. he had on black dress pants with an intricate belt, a white bottom up, and the centerpiece, a black cropped blazer.

it brought attention to his tiny waist, something he'd typically be self-conscious about.

and, of course, some simple silver jewelry to complement his belt.

chanhee did his makeup in his usual style, mostly natural with a light pink eyeshadow, slight dark brown eyeliner, and a simple rosy lip tint. younghoon, of course, said it was far too simple.

younghoon made his liner more defined and sharp, adding more of a line over his crease in a thin line. he defined his under eye more, giving him a darker look. the last addition was a bit of shine in his inner corner with some new liquid, sparkly eyeshadow he got.

as much as chanhee loved the soft, rosy look, this felt so much better with the outfit. he had never seen himself like this, and it was truly something else.

fully satisfied with his appearance, he grabbed his phone and went for the mirror.

he opened the camera app, snapped a photo, and cropped his face out.

hesitantly, he searched for changmin's number to open in his messaging app.

chanhee [20:42]

hey! sorry for the random text. but i need feedback that isn't just younghoon

chanhee waited for a moment, seeing if he'd get a response. nothing.

chanhee [20:43]

what do you think?

again, he waited, but no response. he pouted, slightly disappointed. maybe he should've stuck to calling?

then, younghoon walks in, frantically applying something to his face and readjusting his shirt.

"chanhee, please be honest! i can't get this to look right and we need to leave. like now!"

chanhee giggles at his panic, which is definitely not needed. "of course hoonie, you always look great."

younghoon frowns, hoping for something more constructive.

"seriously! i wouldn't lie to you, your outfit choices today have seriously been great and i have no doubt whatever boy you are trying to impress will think you are stunning."

younghoon falters at the boy's comment, but chooses not to get into it. "fine, thank you. i'm going to go finish my makeup and then we'll leave, okay?"

chanhee's phone chimes right as he nods in response. he rushes to pick up his phone, and younghoon eyes him questionably before walking out.

changmin [20:47]

you look amazing, chanhee.

chanhee's heart does flips. it was a simple compliment, he was pretty sure younghoon had even said it earlier. but this felt... different. more sincere? he wasn't sure exactly.

before he gets a chance to respond, younghoon is barging in, an exasperated expression covering his face.

"chanhee! hello? i've called your name like 5 teams. i'm ready! let's go!"
