Cherry Soda - WOOSAN

|5|

Wooyoung sits at the table, contemplating what he should tell San. The whole time it felt like San was just staring into his soul.

"I- uh-" Wooyoung really didn't know what kind of excuse to use. Obviously, he couldn't tell San the truth, but the more he hesitated, the more obvious it seemed that he was coming up with an excuse.

San notices wooyoung's hesitation, sighs, and says "it's okay... you don't have to tell me"

Wooyoung let's put a big breath he was holding and relaxes a bit. "Thank you, I- uh- I'll- tell you when I'm ready"

San gets concerned at this statement. Is it about me? Or more obviously, did he have sex with Hongjoong?!?! No no no, that can't be true... but why else would he say it like that???

San calms himself and says "don't worry about it" as relaxed as he possibly can.

Wooyoung sips his cherry soda, trying to think of a way to change the subject. While thinking, he starts going in a downward spiral.

I can't believe this! Am I really crushing on a guy that I don't even know is gay? I really should—

Wooyoung's thoughts were cut off by San saying "Woo..."

The nickname startled him— only Hongjoong calls him Woo...

"You know you can talk to me... right?"

Wooyoung looks at San with a stare that could only be described as lust. "Uh- yea- haha thanks.."

2 months went by, and the flirting continued— it seemed like all the flirting they were doing was all in good fun; just jokes between friends right?

But they were only pretending to joke.

Some people picked up on it and some didn't, but more importantly, neither of them knew the other was being serious.

After a couple weeks, they figured out their lifestyle. In fact, their conversations flowed so easily that they were close friends in no time.

However, the closer they became, the more they wanted each other, and the more to lose if a confession didn't go over well.

(A/N: If only one of them would actually make a move😭 tho this is a hella stressful situation)

"So when is your performance?" San asks wooyoung as they walk back to their dorm after a long day

"You can come tomorrow, Thursday, or Friday" wooyoung says

This will be Wooyoung's second performance of the year, and San is determined to be there since he couldn't make the first one.

When they reach their dorm room, Wooyoung goes straight to his bed and collapses on it.

"You okay?" San asks

"Yea..." Wooyoung says, clearly exhausted, "I've got so much going on right now, I need to just relax, but not even sleeping is helping"

San thought for a second, "why don't we get ready to sleep"

Wooyoung groaned as he got up to go change and wash his face.

San had a plan. But first, he got ready for bed.

San changed into some baggy sweatpants and a tight tank top, meanwhile wooyoung changed into some comfortable shorts and an oversized tshirt.

San got into bed, but not his own bed.

When wooyoung came back over to his bed, San was laying right in the dead center. "Uhm? What are you doing?" Wooyoung says letting out a laugh

"Don't you want to lay with me?" San says

Wooyoung looked at San for a second, wondering if he was actually interpreting this correctly.

"Cmon" San says "sometimes sleeping is better when you're not alone"

Wooyoung smiles to himself, excited that San initiated it. "Thanks" he says as he lays with San.

Their cuddling just came natural, like they had done it multiple times before.

Before he could even process the situation, Wooyoung was out, so exhausted after the last few days.

San stayed awake for a while, he wanted to cherish this time with his friend, because he didn't know if or when it would happen again.

San felt peaceful, like he was safe with wooyoung; secure. San let out a deep breath and all his worries melted away. It felt like time had stopped, and he wished that it could. If only they could stay together forever.

Wooyoung was fast asleep, and San could tell because of his slowed breathing and relaxed muscles.

He was holding his sleeping beauty.

Wooyoung awoke randomly throughout the night, but it still never really hit him that he was snuggling with San. Even so, Wooyoung held San tight, making sure he wouldn't go anywhere.

In the morning, neither of them really wanted to get up. They were stalling to stay here for as long as possible.

Then, wooyoung's alarm went off.

It was time to go to practice.
