-Fireflies' Love- (A JiKyu Fanfiction)

十九: The Anchor And The Sailboat (2)

After the movie, the two came out hand in hand. Although the movie was quite ordinary, they did enjoy themselves doing their own sort of things extraordinarily. They had contented hearts, but empty stomachs. Relalizing that, Jihoon offered to go eat noodles.

"It may not be our usual noodles shop, but you'll like it." Jihoon said to Junkyu, who replied with, "I'm not so sure about that, all I crave is ramen cooked by you."

Jihoon melted at Junkyu's words. Last night, they were so excited that both forgot the fundamentals. Having ramen together. It was an unofficial thing between them. To make up, Jihoon side hugged Junkyu, "I promise I'll make the best ramen for you tonight."

"Promise?" Junkyu added. Jihoon nodded with a smile. He was never an official cook, but Junkyu seemed to love his cooking. So why not?

In a turn of events, Junkyu actually liked the meal of Jihoon's recommended shop, especially the meatballs. Jihoon offered his ones to Junkyu because of that. It was a small act of kinship and Junkyu felt loved. They had both black bean and seafood noodles. Jihoon really liked the first one. He ate with his eyebrows hitched. Junkyu laughed at his exaggeration.

With full stomach, Junkyu became a little sleepy. Although Jihoon was pumped up for more activities, he chose to do something relaxing for his loving man out there. There was a leisure park nearby, so he took Junkyu to spend some time there. The younger wasn't fond of walking, so they chose a spot to sit on. It was a chilly afternoon, but the sun was still there and so they didn't feel as cold. The grass was really soft too. It felt nice to sit on them. There weren't many people in the park, only one or two kids and some elderly people walking around. They could clearly hear birds chirping. Jihoon even managed to spot small yellow butterflies.

The sky was such a pretty shade of blue that Jihoon decided to lie down and look at it. He gestured at Junkyu to do the same and the latter did so too. He chose to lie on Jihoon's chest, his head close to the sharp chin of the elder. Jihoon obviously didn't complain. Rather, his hand went on the other's stomach, patting him lightly. After a small while, the younger sighed.

"You know my dreams are usually like this." He said, "Minus the people around."

"Don't you feel lonely in your dreams?" Jihoon asked.

"I do." Junkyu answered, "I think the loneliness drives me to look for people. But I never found anyone except you." He looked at Jihoon's face from below. He couldn't see anything other than Jihoon's chin, but still heard the sound of a small chuckle.

"It's still so weird. I'm not special, like- I can't do what you do. And we had no connection. Still you only found me." Jihoon said, "I'm happy though. Although I'm just a portal you managed to break through, I'm glad you came in my life."

Junkyu sat up, went up to be in line with Jihoon's face. Jihoon looked at him, slightly lowering his gaze. Junkyu looked at one of his eyes to the other, repeatedly.

"I don't know why I have this ability, Hoonie. But I can bet you and I were bound to meet."

Jihoon nodded, "I believe so too. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come back to me."

Junkyu stared at Jihoon at what he said. Lying on the green grass with his blue shirt and hair done, Jihoon looked even more handsome. His eyes were sparkling, they always did but under the natural sunlight, they looked even more alive. Junkyu could see the asymmetric teeth on Jihoon's lower jaw when he smiled. He didn't mean to stare at those lips but Jihoon had like the sexiest lips. The upper one a little more curved, and unlike others, it was curved upwards. Junkyu could stare at those lips all day!

But Jihoon's heart couldn't afford that. When Junkyu stared at his eyes, his lips with that innocent face, he felt butterflies in his stomach. Chills ran down his spine thinking about the wonderful reunion of him and Junkyu. He remembered last night, and his heart skipped a beat. He still couldn't believe that he completely owned Kim Junkyu.
