[ 24 ]

Soobin was cleaning up his room. He had invited yeonjun today and he was probably gonna show up in another 30 minutes.

He was almost done when he heard the bell ring. He went to open the door surprised to see yeonjun biting his fingernails.

"oh you're early"

"I have nothing to do, hyung won't let me work"

Soobin let him inside as yeonjun took off his shoes.

"oh well mom's not home but my annoying cousin is but we're gonna ignore his entire existence"

Yeonjun didn't have a chance to speak before soobin dragged him towards his room.

When they reached the room, yeonjun expected them to quietly sit down and talk but he yelped when soobin pulled him in a back hug.

"what are you doing?" yeonjun raised a brow, not used to being so affectionate with people.

"I'm hugging you" soobin said, voice muffled because he was nuzzling his face in yeonjun's neck.

"I know but why" yeonjun giggled at the ticklish feeling on not just his neck but in his stomach too.

"because I've always wanted to do this" soobin hugged him even tighter. Yeonjun sighed as he let the other be.

The two stayed like that for a while, laying in the bed doing nothing when yeonjun suddenly took out something from his pocket.

He slowly unfolded the pieces of paper and showed it to soobin.

"what's this" soobin examined the brochure.

"the school's holding a singing competition, I thought you'd wanna participate"

It was momentarily silent, yeonjun got nervous when he received no response from soobin.

He heard a sigh from beside him "I uh... I'll think about it"

Yeonjun got even more nervous at change in soobin's tone and started rambling "did I say something wrong? I'm sorry I didn't mean to-"

Soobin chuckled and hugged him again "calm down"

"I just" soobin gulped "I haven't sang in front of anyone"

"but you sang in front of me"

"No I mean apart from family and friends. I never considered myself good enough to perform in front of an actual audience"

"are you for real?"

"yeah" soobin shrugged

"soobin have you ever heard your voice"

"yeah i sound like a dying goat"

"How do you know what a dying goat sounds like"

"like an alive goat"

"soobin you have such an amazing voice, the first time I listened to you sing I wish I would've recorded it so I could listen to it all the time" yeonjun smiled at the other "if you don't want to take part in the competition then don't, but at least have some confidence"

Soobin smiled back as the other tried to cheer him up "well then let me ask you this confidently, will you go out with me"

Yeonjun paused "what do you think I'm gonna say"

"I don't know"

"you don't know even after the episode we had at jungkook hyung's house?"

"oh come on just say it" soobin whined

"fine fine" yeonjun tried to look annoyed but his lips curved upwards "I'll go out with you"

The two smiled at each other before leaning to make their lips meet when suddenly someone barged in.

"hyung have you- OH MY GOD I'M SO SORRY I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD SOMEONE OVER OTHERWISE I WOULD KNOCKED- wait you have someone over and you were about to kiss AND IT'S CHOI FUCKING YEONJUN damn Choi Soobin you finally grew the balls to-"

And soobin slammed the door right on jiung's face.

Yeonjun giggled at the new comer who seemed to have been well aware of their situation.

"ignore him, he's a menace" soobin walked back to yeonjun "now where were we"

"I'm going home" yeonjun laughed as he pushed him away and ran out of the house.

Soobin groaned as he stared at the open door "CHOI JIUNG YOU'RE DEAD MEAT"
