Chapter 31 : Swimwear

Hyunsuk keeps slipping his hair behind his hair as the wind keeps blowing making his hair fall back into his eyes. He then sighed and just continue munching on his food, letting his hair cover his eyes once again. Suddenly, he felt a warmth touching his forehead, causing him to flinch from surprise. He then rolls his eyes, seeing Jihoon looking at him, with his hand touching Hyunsuk's hair. His hand hanging in the air when Hyunsuk straightens his back.

"What are you doing?" ask Hyunsuk, wiping his mouth using a tissue. He seems to be done with his meal. "Oh, I see your hair distracting you. So..." Jihoon scratches his head. His eyes were glued to Hyunsuk's face. Staring at him as if he is trying to memorize every single feature of it. From eyes, nose, and lips, Hyunsuk looks like an angel whom Jihoon can't tear his eyes away from.

Jihoon broke off his stare when he heard Hyunsuk clearing his throat. The older guy probably notices how much Jihoon stares at him. "So? What is it?" asked Hyunsuk. Jihoon snapped out of his trance. He then gulps his saliva before speaking. "Uhh..." He looks at Hyunsuk who's anticipating what he's going to say next. His expression doesn't seem to change, waiting for Jihoon's words. "Nothing,"  Jihoon said while averting eye contact with Hyunsuk. He wants to say something but he prevents himself from saying anything because he is afraid he might ruin this moment. He didn't want Hyunsuk to feel uncomfortable or awkward around him. He then just smile softly.

"If you're done with your meal, let's head back," said Hyunsuk, ready to stand up from their table. Jihoon then nods his head. As he is about to stand, he heard a loud voice coming from a group of foreign tourists. His attention is fixed on them.

"Ah, surfing! I read about it! They're gonna be surfing session in the afternoon!" said Jihoon. Excitement was written all over his face. He then looks at Hyunsuk with his eyes shining brightly. He'd look like an excited puppy that will jump around in joyous happiness. "Hyung, let's..." suddenly, Jihoon stops talking. The excitement went from his face. He wants the older male to join him in his fun activity but he doesn't know if the other will be able to enjoy it.

Hyunsuk sighing. The excited puppy from before looks like an abandoned puppy now.

"Let's go," Hyunsuk said. Jihoon quickly looks at Hyunsuk. His eyes were filled with hope and expectation.

"Where?" he asked.

"Well, surfing..." Hyunsuk answered, averting his eyes from Jihoon's sparkling eyes. There was some nervousness hinted in his voice. Jihoon smiles widely.

"Really!? You'll come with me?  Thank you hyung! I'm so happy!! We're gonna have so much fun!!" Jihoon jumped happily. His loud voice makes some people give their attention to them. Some people even laugh at his behavior. Hyunsuk sighs again.

The sounds of waves crashing against the shore filled his ears. His eyes focused on the sea, watching the clouds drift by and listening to the wind blow. As he closes his eyes to feel the wind brushing against his skin, a sound of laughter reaches his ears. There are some people in the distance, but not too far away from where he stood.

"Hyung!!" he quickly turns his head,  only to see a boy running towards him with excitement. He is now in a black wetsuit and jammers, with a smile covering his face.

As soon as he stands in front of Hyunsuk, he pants loudly. His cheeks were red due to the running. "Why don't you change into a swimwear, huh? Hyunsuk hyung?" Jihoon asks, still panting heavily. Hyunsuk can see the small beads of sweat forming around the corner of Jihoon's lips. "I am wearing it now," he said simply. Jihoon lost words when heard that.

He looks at Hyunsuk from top to bottom.  Hyunsuk seems like was wearing his usual attire. A pair of short sleeves with an undershirt and shorts. He surely is pretty no matter what he wears but he isn't sure if what he wear is suitable for surf. He then suddenly unzips his wetsuit and takes it off.

"Hyung, wear this," Jihoon says, holding out the black wetsuit that he just took off. Hyunsuk looks at Jihoon who is now standing there, wearing nothing but navy blue jammers. "Is my attire not good enough?" Hyunsuk asked, looking at his beachwear. Jihoon then shakes his head.

"Shorts are fine but that shirt. What if it gets washed by waves?" ask Jihoon. Hyunsuk looks back at his own body. Well, he might be true he said. He then looks at Jihoon again. "Should I wear this?" he asked pointing at what was in Jihoon's hand. Jihoon bites his lower lips trying not to hypnotize by that adorable face. He then smiled. "Or do you want to go half naked?" ask Jihoon, teasingly. 

Jihoon knew he had already won. After all, it's not like he teasing Hyunsuk because he like it. He just wants the latter to wear something that wouldn't risk his safe. The moment Hyunsuk hears that question he immediately turns his face beet red. His cheeks turned rosy and he can't deny that cute expression of his is driving him crazy.

"Fine! Give me the clothes!" Hyunsuk snatched the shirt. Jihoon's eyes widened when he sees this side of Hyunsuk. Hyunsuk then undresses himself to put it on. He didn't bother to change in front of Jihoon. Jihoon is taken aback by what he saw. He quickly turns his head, trying to hide his blush.

It's not even the first time he saw Hyunsuk's naked torso and yet it always manages to make his heart beat faster every single time. The urge to touch that delicate skin of Hyunsuk is getting stronger. He took a deep breath as he try to compose himself.

"Done," said Hyunsuk. Jihoon snaps out of his trance and turns his face back, looking at Hyunsuk. He feels butterflies erupt in his stomach when he sees his tight wetsuit look loose in Hyunsuk's slender body. His eyes trailed down to the thin fabric that is hugging Hyunsuk's waist. Suddenly his thoughts went blank.

Damn! Why did he look so sexy? he thought to himself. Jihoon shakes his head, trying to clear his mind. He covers his face with his hand, trying to calm himself.

"Ahem,"  Jihoon cleared his throat. He can feel how his heart was beating fast again. "Let's go," he said, pointing in the direction of the shore. Hyunsuk nod and follow behind Jihoon. They both walk side by side to the shoreline where people are surfing. Jihoon then ran the group leaving Hyunsuk behind.

Hyunsuk just watched as Jihoon talked animatedly with a guy, probably their leader or something. He is amused by Jihoon's social skills. It reminds him of a certain someone. The more he thinks about it, the worse feeling it makes him. His lips started to quiver slightly. He brings his head down, trying to control his emotions.

"Hyunggg! You're not coming?!" He heard Jihoon's voice calling him. He looked up and saw that guy waving at him, with a big smile on his face. Along with the blowing wind, he feels like the suffocate feeling inside his chest just now suddenly fly away. He could easily breathe. He then slowly walked over, joining Jihoon's side.
