"Let me make you love me, please?" Jisoo doesn't know what he should do, so he does what he can– nod. He never knew just a simple nod could make Jeonghan this happy. Jeonghan's smile makes him think that maybe he can fall in love with him.
"You said yes! There's no going back now. " He is amused by the way Jeonghan's eyes lit up. If this is the way Jeonghan has been looking at him the entire time, why is he just noticing it now? "Joshuji, you are not allowed to stop me from pampering you with love," Cheesy.
Well, it doesn't hurt so...."Yes, I'll not stop you," Jisoo says. "But what if I don't fall for you?" He wants to know where this would lead their friendship to. Jeonghan is special to him. after all, he can not risk losing their friendship.
"That won't be the case. Trust me. " Jeonghan gives Joshua a quick peck on his cheek and runs away. Joshua is utterly speechless, to say the least. He couldn't even ask Jeonghan since when he had liked him.
Jeonghan feels like the happiest person ever alive. Yeah, Joshua might not have agreed to be his boyfriend, but he doesn't need to hide his love anymore. He so will make sure to shower his Joshuji with all the love he's kept hidden for so long. Yoon Jeonghan will make Hong Jisoo fall in love with him.
He wakes up the next day, hours earlier than he usually does. He didn't return to the dorm yesterday only to prepare his first ever 'surprise' for his love. He sounds like a teenager girl gushing over his crush. Old school, but love usually sounds crazy to single people, okay?!
Jisoo feels a little sad to be walking to the company all alone. Maybe Jeonghan is not ready to face him? He opens the door a little harsher than usual, it slams against the wall, and the loud thud attracts everyone's attention towards him. He is getting annoyed by everything.
Where the hell is Jeonghan? He is not even showing his face after saying that he'll court him? Such a meanie. Jisoo's pout only deepens when he doesn't see him in the practice room as well. His mood sours as he drags his feet to the locker room.
On opening his locker, he finds a strawberry milk inside. It doesn't belong to him, but his name is written in a paper stuck to it. So he opens it.
You must be thirsty. Why don't you take a sip? it reads, with an arrow pointing towards his bottle. Jisoo chuckles to himself before taking a sip and finding the next note on the bottom of the bottle.
I bet you taste even better than it.
Joshua chokes on the milk and awkwardly looks around. He finds another note stuck in the corner of the locker.
Someone looks really pretty today, wanna know who? Turn left <3
He does as it said, and he smiles at his own reflection staring back at him. There's another post-it note stuck in the mirror. His curiosity gets the best of him, and he lets his feet lead him closer to the mirror. He takes the paper off the mirror.
Not only today, you look pretty every single day. If you don't trust me, then ask the mirror.
He lifts his lashes up at the mirror, then sees another paper a few steps behind him.
Your smile is so bright, oh, and there's another another– hallways :)) It says. Jisoo walks straight to the hallways to find yet another note stuck to the wall. He wonders who it is.
I love your hoodie, and Pink suits you. By the way, you might want to check your pocket.
Jisoo checks his pocket to find another paper there. How did that person even manage to do this?
You know what will suit you even better? My surname.
Jisoo bursts into laughter. "This is so outdated," His eyes fall on another one.
Are you sure you’re not tired? You’ve been running through my mind all day. But you have to walk just a little longer. Turn left at the top of the stairs.
"Why does it feel like a trap?" Jisoo says as he reads the next one stuck at the door of a room.
"You're not just a pretty face, you know that, right? You're the loveliest, kindest, and most talented person I've ever seen, by the way, Can I call you baby?
He opens the door, and the room is dark. So, maybe it is a trap. Jisoo doesn't even have any kind of weapons. What'd he do if a murderer shows up? He feels someone's hands on his shoulders and freaks out. The lights turn on, thankfully. "Can I?" He hears a familiar voice and finally takes a deep breath.
"You scared me, Jeonghan." He hits Jeonghan's chest lightly. "Thought I was a killer?" Jeonghan chuckles as he seizes Jisoo's hands abruptly. "I hate you," Jisoo says with a pout.
"I love you too,"
"Shut up."
"Come on, It was romantic,"
"No, it was corny and creepy,"
"Are you sure?" Jeonghan raises his brows, not convinced by the reply.
"Fine, just a bit romantic." He pulls Joshua closer by his waist. Sulky Joshuji is just as cute. "Don't you like it?" He whispers softly. His Joshuji is in reach again.
"Sorry, I'm an anti romantic."
"Yeah? Then why was this anti romantic smiling so brightly at the notes?" Jeonghan pulls Joshua even closer, and his breath hitches at the proximity.
"Because....... it was silly. "
"So, you like silly stuffs"
"I never said–" Joshua stops when he finally looks around as the room. He gasps at the sight before him. The space is decorated beautifully with rose petals scattered on the floor and balloons of all colours lining the walls. Candles flicker in the background, their soft glow casting an intimate atmosphere. The sweet scent of fresh roses is his favourite. The room feels warm and inviting, and he looks back at Jeonghan with wide doe eyes. "How did you manage to do all this? Wouldn't you get in trouble?"
"I have my ways." Jeonghan states, proud at the reaction he got from Joshua. "Joshuji," Jeonghan speaks again, smiling fondly. "I told you that I wrote a song, Do you remember?"
Jisoo bobs his head, he remembers, but he never got to hear it. Jeonghan had said he'd let him hear the song when the right time came. "Your right time nevers comes," He mutters out to himself.
"It's about time I let you hear it,"
"Really?"
"Really"
Jeonghan strums his guitar as he sings the song.
All that I think about is you and you
사랑하는 사람을 너라서
Ask me if I'm okay or if I am not
I could never be, How could I when you're not with me?별에서 데려가줘
너의 사랑을 너 원하게 만들어 Baby
I wanna hold your hands and kiss you in the moonlight
But I know that I can'tSo tell me you'll give me a chance with you
Tell me you feel the same as I do
나랑 함께 하고 여전히, 말해 니 마음 다 잘 알지
Just stay with me, forever"It's so good. I didn't know you were such a good composer?"
"As I told you, you still have to know a lot about me," Jeonghan says. "By the way, I wrote this while thinking of you."
