Our way to each other | Binwoo

fourteen

The next morning was hectic but it didn't bother Bin and Eunwoo to lie on their beds and look at each other for 5 whole minutes without saying a word. Both of them were thinking about what they will do now.

When all the boys arrived for the music show's recording, binwoo was the most energetic for some reason.

And the members didn't ask binwoo about their fight that night but today they noticed that Bin and Eunwoo were sitting quite close to each other in the waiting room. Those two didn't talk too much but sometimes they could poke each other.

At home, when Eunwoo was in the shower and Bin in the kitchen, Jinwoo and Myungjun came to the latter.

"How was your day?"

"It was nice, thanks for asking..." Answered Bin. "But I also have something to tell. Eunwoo and I are together now."

"Congrats!" MJ hugged his dongsaeng and then Jinwoo joined him." Minhyuk and Sanha don't know yet, do they?"

"No, they don-"

"Now we know." The guys shouted together as they stuck their heads out from behind the back of the sofa.

"What the hell are you doing there?"

"We were playing the mobile game. Congrats, Binnie hyung, by the way." The boys smiled and hid again, continuing playing the game.

"I'm a bit worried, though. It's my first relationship. And it's with Eunwoo, my first love."

"Bin, you know him, he knows you, just... relax and be yourself," reassured the leader.

"I just realized... I think we should've told you this together. I hope he won't be mad about it."

"Oops." said the oldest and scoffed as he clapped Bin's back.

'-'

"I told them."

"You what!? Without me!?"

"Sorry, babe..."

"B- babe?"

"I- I mean..." Started Bin in stuttering. "I'm hungry, I'll go and get some food." And the door slammed, and Eunwoo stayed there, standing in the middle of the room as if nobody just called him 'babe'.

'-'

The boys had a tough schedule for the whole week. They came back home, did their evening routine, everything, as usual, nothing to say here but this evening was a little bit different for the two boys. Bin was lying in his bed, prepared for sleep, he kept watching Eunwoo who was whipping up his pillow.

"Eunwoo-ya..."

"Mhm?" Muffled the older.

"Lie down with me."

Eunwoo stopped for a moment with the pillow in his hands. He slowly turned his body and head towards Bin and smiled.

"Okay," said Eunwoo, leaving his pillow on the bed.

Bin helped the boy to get under the covers and then they were lying down, looking at each other. After a few seconds, the younger boy slowly stretched his hand to Eunwoo's waist, but the shirt of the latter was pulled up a little and as the result, Bin touched the uncovered skin of his boyfriend. Eunwoo jerked and recoiled, although he didn't intend to do that, the touch was just so unexpected.

"I'm sorry," said Bin as he quickly withdrew his hand due to Eunwoo's reaction.

"No, it's ok-"

"No- I mean-" Bin spoke abruptly and a little haltingly. "I didn't want to scare you, I didn't want to do anything... you know what I mean?"

"Ugh... Binnie, I'm sorry. I know you didn't want to do anything weird, it's just my body reflections. You know, I'm still kind of trying to adjust to our relationship and I know we hugged each other before, even if our skin wasn't fully covered, but now there's another image of us in my head so it doesn't feel the same. I don't say it in a bad way, I still see you as the same person with your characteristics, with your habits and all that. Do you understand what I'm trying to say?"

"I guess so."

"Good, then, please, don't get my reactions wrong, okay?"

"Okay," answered Bin, trying not to show his sadness. He felt as if he was scolded, although Eunwoo didn't shout, everything that was said, was said calmly. He understood Eunwoo, he didn't want to hurry him. "I'll try to sleep then."

"Sure," said Eunwoo as he was getting out from under the covers. But at that moment his arm was caught by Bin's hand.

"I understand what you've just said but..." Bin let out Eunwoo's arm. "Could you, please, stay in my bed this night? I understand if n-"

"I can stay." The older boy placed his body near his boyfriend again.

Quiet "Thank you" was heard in the room and Eunwoo opened his eyes. He saw the half-asleep boy whose eyes were closed in front of him. A slight smile appeared on Eunwoo's face, he kept watching his boyfriend. He looked at his round nose and beautiful lashes that were seen in the darkness because of moonlight. He could feel warmth and coziness near Bin, although the feeling wasn't that familiar, and even after a week it felt new, it was really nice and Eunwoo enjoyed every second of it.
