"Sunghoon..." Heeseung held out a batch of pink orchids. "Will you go out with me?"
Someone made a gagging sound.
"Kai, go away," Heeseung sighed, turning to face the younger boy. "I'm trying to practice."
"Hey, that wasn't me." Kai innocently held his hands up, lips curling into a smirk. "This time."
Jay took a deep breath, wiping tears from his eyes. "I'm sorry; it was me. You look and sound ridiculous right now."
Heeseung glanced down, frowning at his outfit. "I knew it. You don't like it."
"No, it's-" Jay hesitated, staring up at Heeseung's leopard print beanie. "An interesting...?"
"It's a choice," Sunoo nodded. "It's definitely a choice."
Heeseung closed his eyes, laughing into his hands. "Well fuck. Help me."

"I believe in you!" Sunghoon cheered quietly. "You got this!"
Heeseung laughed, embarrassed. "Oh god, this is not going well. Okay, Sunghoon. You're my first thought when I wake up. You're all I think about at work. Every day I look forward to seeing you?"
Heeseung stared at the ground anxiously. "I appreciate you, and I want to say thank you for being my everything."
Sunghoon pursed his lips, holding back a smile. "Have you been reading Soobin hyung's romance novels?"
"No. Okay, maybe the last part was from a back cover but, other than that, it was all me. And Sunoo. That doesn't matter though, because Sunghoon, I really, really, really like you and-"
