So You Like Me Too [BL] Short Story

Chapter 1:

Shen Lin runs a small coffee shop with few customers and business was also so-so. He spends his free time staring at the office building opposite the side of the road in a daze.

He met Fu Xueyan a month ago. At that time he was sitting inside the counter, reading when he heard the ding dong sound of the chime bell. Fu Xueyan stood outside with a brightened face as it came in contact with rays of sunshine. Shen Lin saw Fu Xueyan's face when he raised his head, and this face made him wonder if he was still dreaming.

When Fu Xueyan saw his sluggish expression, he waved at him and said, "Hey boss, a latte."

Shen Lin hurriedly stood up and stuttered, " He..... hello."

Fu Xueyan laughed out loud, " Hahaha. I know that I am very handsome but you don't need to look that foolish, boss."

Shen Lin's earlobe slightly turned red. He didn't know how to reply so he hastily went to make coffee, " Please wait a minute. "

Fu Xueyan went and sat down on a seat near the window. Shen Lin made the coffee and brought it over, and leaned over to place it on the table. Fu Xueyan smiled at him to express his gratitude and Shen Lin nodded. However when he turned around, his hands shook uncontrollably.

This is probably the first time that he has ever been close to Fu Xueyan.

Shen Lin forgot when he had started liking Fu Xueyan. It was perhaps when he was in high school or long before.

***

Fu Xueyan was outstanding from his childhood itself. Had a good personality, looked handsome, and had a lot of friends. When he was in middle school, he was the male god in the hearts of many girls. Shen Lin didn't follow their group but could only watch them from afar. In the beginning, he just envied Fu Xueyan. He passionately envied him for having so many friends. And he doesn't know when this envy changed into love.

He secretly paid attention to Fu Xueyan and understood his hobbies and interests, understood his strength and merits. He would secretly sit on Fu Xueyan's seats, pass through the line through which Fu Xueyan usually walks, and would secretly write Fu Xueyan's name on his book.

In his entire youth, he was in love with Fu Xueyan and loved him without any reservations.

But Fu Xueyan didn't know him even until graduation.

He got to see him again. It was morning time and he looked a little tired with greenish-black eyes and a tie which was not tied properly. He greeted Shen Lin like he did last time, "Boss, one cup coffee like before but make it a bit bitter". After saying this he went near his previous seat near the window and sat down. Shen Lin looked at him for a minute.

But still, he restrained his desire to look at him and made a cup of coffee. While bringing it over he thought of saying something, but in the end, nothing came out of his mouth.

Fu Xueyan didn't have the vigor to thank him. He finished the coffee in two gulps and he fell asleep on the sofa right away. Shen Lin wanted to cover him with something but didn't dare to do so. He looked at the wind chime in the doorway and went there to place the "shop closed" sign. It was rare for Fu Xueyan to sleep comfortably in the quiet morning time.

He opened his eyes and stretched casually after his sleep. He then looked at the time and took the coffee on the table.

Even though several hours passed, the coffee was still warm. He looked up and his eyes stopped at the back of Shen Lin who was standing behind the counter. He grinned at him, " Thank you, boss".
