Zhang hao third person POV

Zhang hao eventually exited the shower, spending probably longer than he needed to, as he had stood under the running water reflecting on the events that had just occurred. He shook his head to snap out of his thoughts before he pulled out his toothbrush, squeezing some toothpaste on it before wetting it and beginning to brush his teeth.

Zhang hao walked out the bathroom his toothbrush still in his mouth as he brushed his teeth, his eyes immediately looking over at Hanbin, who sat on the his bed where Zhang Hao had left him, on the other side of the room. Hanbin met his eyes and gestured him to come closer to which Zhang hao quickly complied. Once he at reached the others bed, Hanbin reached out for Zhang hao's hand, to which the other mimicked, giving the younger a playful handshake. He stopped shaking their hands but didn't loosen his grip.

"Thank you"

Hanbin said with a smile as Zhang hao looked at the other in surprise, he really didn't understand what he had done for Hanbin to thank him. However the comment made him loosen up, grounding him that after all Hanbin was just another boy like him and there was no reason to be anxious. Feeling a but more at

ease, he decided to push the boundaries and tease the other.

"Thank you? Then give me a massage"

He joked as he withdrew his hand, non-discreetly staring at the other while he continued to brush his teeth. He had heard the other was good at massages and although it was a for the most part a joke, he couldn't deny that he was curious. He watched as Hanbin began to laugh, the other hiding his face in his hands in embarrassment and Zhang hao couldn't help but to feel proud at how flustered he had made the other.

"Why? You don't like it?"

He teased further, admiring the others bright smile and the small familiar sparkle in his eyes as he eventually looked back up, cheeks slightly rosy.

"Okay, I'll do it"

Hanbin said defeated as it was now Zhang hao's time to get flustered, he rapidly nodded and quickly ran back to the sink to clean out his mouth and his toothbrush, placing it back into its holder. He then splashed some water on his face, meeting his own eyes through the mirror. You can do this. He mumbled to himself as he built up the courage to return to Hanbin and go through with the massage. He had been this close to people before but for Hanbin he couldn't explain, the thought made him feel like his heart was going the explode.

He ran a hand through his hair before drying off his still damp hands and heading back over to Hanbin. The other was sitting upright, watching the bathroom door as if he was waiting for Zhang hao to return, the older noticed and immediately avoided the others eyes.

"Hyung. just lay down on my bed on your stomach"

Hanbin said, patting his bed and standing, Zhang hao quickly nodded, walking over and laying down on the bed, his face stuffed into Hanbin's pillow, the same woody vanilla scent he had smelt when he hugged the other in the snow, filling his senses. Zhang hao wrapped his arms around the pillow as he put his hands underneath his head, titling his face to the side so that he could see Hanbin out the corner of his eye.

Zhang hao closed his eyes as he heard the bed creak at Hanbin's weight, the others knees on the outsides of Zhang hao's legs. The older took a nervous breath as he felt Hanbin cold hands gently place pressure on his shoulder blades.

"Let me know if it I hurt you"

Zhang hao hummed as he felt the others hands glide up to where his should blades met his shoulder pushing down as Zhang hao groaned. He hadn't realised how ruined his body was after all the training he had done.

"You know, I feel like you're the only person that understands me at times. The pressure we have to do good and to maintain our ranks his killing me"

Hanbin confessed as he hands trailed to Zhang hao's neck, rubbing circles and gently squeezing the skin, relaxing the muscles.

"Everyone expects me to always rank first Hyung, and it's hard cause I can't just make people want to vote for me. I feel like I'm losing my charm"

Zhang hao winced as the other pushed down a little harder but hummed in agreement.

"And then I watch the rest of the trainees... especially you... who just get better every performance. It's only time before everyone realises they are better voting for other people"

Hanbin's voice sounded somewhat sad and when the other withdrew his hand from Zhang hao's neck the older quickly turned his face so he could see Hanbin, noticing how watery his eyes were but he still held a grin.

"Hanbinie we all know you deserve your rank. I didn't like it at first but I can't help but to admit you can be really charming"

Zhang hao shoved he head back into the others pillow to hide his blush, feeling embarassed at their current position. He heard the others sweet laugh once more and couldn't help but to smile like crazy into the pillow, a smile he wished Hanbin also adored rather than the teary eyed one prior.

"Hao Hyung, you're so modest. Do you not realise how alluring you are at times?"

Hanbin's hands glided down Zhang hao's back, the soft trailing of Hanbin's index finger down his spin causing Zhang hao to violently shiver. The others hands rested on the orders lower back, half under his shirt, rubbing small circles with his palms into the skin.

"You're literally so perfect but you can't even see it"
