Sunghoon was back at his house... again.

He honestly had no idea why his house had become the meetup spot between them but he didn't put up a fight. It was easier not leaving his house anyway.

The two were meeting again today because they had to figure out how this was all gonna work. Sunghoon had practice the first time he came over so he couldn't stay for long.

They were once again situated on Jake's couch in his living room. "We have to soft launch it."

Sunghoons face scrunched. "What the fuck does that mean." Jake just rolled his eyes.

The more he talked to Sunghoon, the more he realized how out of touch he was. He was convinced he lived in the countryside and only left his house to skate. "We have to tease it. It'll be no fun if I just come out and say I have a boyfriend."

Sunghoon hummed and took a drink of water. "It seems like you've thought a lot about this."

Jake looked at him incredulously. "You're literally the one that came up with the idea."

"Yeah but I didn't plan ahead." Jake sighed, of course he didn't plan ahead. "Okay well they already know that I might be with someone, but for all they know it could just be a friend, so we have to get past friend territory to convince everyone."

Sunghoon looked so lost. "Okay and how are we going to do that?"

"Well, I have to film a video soon." He's been planning this video for a while but it works out perfectly with their (his) plan. "Sometimes I film my videos and sometimes my editor Niki films them."

He's known Niki since elementary school. They practically grew up together and he helped Jake build his YouTube account from the ground up. He is almost positive that he wouldn't be nearly as successful if he didn't have Niki to help him on the way.

"He talks while he films with me and even though they don't see him much, they know his voice and are very fond of him." He's convinced some of his viewers like Riki more than him. "They'll know if someone else is filming me." He's also hoping Sunghoon is good a filming.

"We can also do the little stuff like the insta photos and slight interruptions on streams." Sunghoon slowly nodded before adjusting his position. "I have a skating jacket I could give you."

Jake just furrowed his eyebrows, silently telling him to explain. "It doesn't say my name so it won't be giving too much away, but it does say my competition team."

Jake leaned back on the couch with a satisfied look. "Wow... that's a smart idea."

Sunghoon looked at him offended. "Why do you sound so surprised?"

He ran a hand through his hair. "You don't want me to answer that question." Sunghoon mumbled the same thing under his breath mockingly.

"Do you have practice Tuesday afternoon?" Sunghoon simply shook his head. "Great, that's when operation Sim-Park will start." Jake started to get up, Sunghoon following suit. "Never call it that again." His face scrunched up, slightly shaking his head.

Jake chose to ignore it, standing there as Sunghoon put on his shoes. Jake silently urged him to get out of his house.

As Sunghoon had one foot out the door he turned around, eyes teasing. "It should be Park-Sim though, it sounds better."

"Get out." He poked Sunghoon's side, roughly might he add, getting him out, closing the door right behind him.

Jake heard a faint curse from the other side of the door making him chuckle, this might not be that bad after all.

Jake had thought he would have to drag Sunghoon out, but he was surprisingly compliant. He was, however, wearing a god awful sweater but Jake knew to pick his battles.

He got himself comfortable in front of the camera, finally turning it on.

"Hello everyone, today you're here with Jake Sim and-" Sunghoon snorted. "Is that your intro? You're so lame." Jake gave a glare to Sunghoon. "Shut it and let me finish."

Jake shifted his eyes from behind the camera to the lense, the glare quickly washing away from his face. "Like I was saying, today I'm gonna be trying to make macarons from scratch."

"Technically they're not from scratch, you have pre-made-" The viewers could see Jake's glare but they couldn't see Sunghoons shit eating grin.

"I'm going to throw you out that window if you don't shut it." Sunghoon put his hand up in surrender even though the camera couldn't see it. "Me oh my I angered the celebrity, please don't cancel me." Jake just huffed.

The video just started and they were already bickering, it was gonna be a long video.
