You're the Reason the Sun Sets and the Moon Rises - Seongjoong

🇸 🇮 🇽

The morning was fresh and peaceful as Seonghwa exited the bakery, with Yunho and Wooyoung following in tow.

"So, this Hongjoong guy jumped on you and poked your chest!" Wooyoung, as always, was only here for the gossip.

He wouldn't shut up when Seonghwa told him about his little crush on Hongjoong. At first, he was concerned, considering his previous relationship, which made Seonghwa smile in reassurance. After he explained everything in more detail and how the male helped him out on many occasions, he came to trust him.

Yunho had doubts still lingering within him about this whole situation, but he said nothing of it. He was just looking out for his friend.

"Wooyoung, lower your voice; the whole of Seoul will hear you." He forced the other male's mouth shut with his hand.

His response to this was a subtle lick against his palm, which swiftly drew Seonghwa away, faster than from someone with the plague.

"Wooyoung!" He exclaimed with a stomp on the ground.

Yunho couldn't help but laugh at that, since Wooyoung always brought the worst out of him.

"Ok, ok guys, let's be nice. Seonghwa has a huge fat crush on someone, so we can get all the details in the cafeteria. Got it." Yunho butted in a moment later.

Both males seemed to agree, as they simultaneously sprinted to their university since they were always late.

...

Wooyoung was the first in the cafeteria today. He was just so hyped up for their girl talk that he left way before their initial meeting time.

He sighed at his ignorance and simply took a seat at their table and waited until they decided to show up.

He only waited for about two minutes since Yunho seemed just as curious to hear about Hongjoong, so he dragged Seonghwa out of class to meet up.

They couldn't wait.

"Fina-fucking-lly jeez. Now come." Wooyoung had his lunch set out nicely already.

Yunho forced Seonghwa down with him and persisted until he spoke.

"Ok, ok, god." He sighed.

"Well, I saw him at the train station yesterday. Yunho would've had a chance to see him if he hadn't ditched on me again, but anyway, he was having a bad day and nearly died," both males gasped. "Yeah, he would've if I hadn't pulled him onto the sidewalk. Gosh, that man," he shook his head. "We ended up crying together, and somehow we went to my house, like I said earlier. We talked and laughed; I made jokes about his height; he got up and jumped me, poked my chest, and... stared into my eyes with this sort of look. It made me feel things, and I don't even know if he realized." His face flushed bright red, causing both males to erupt in giggles.

"Huh, what kind of look?" Yunho questioned with an eyebrow raise.

He racked up his thoughts for a moment, trying to pinpoint his exact expression.

Heated cheeks, big round eyes, and parted cherry lips.

"Submissive."

...

Laying in bed, staring at the glow-in-the-dark stars stuck to his ceiling, he smiled. They were his nightlight, since they were quite bright, but not obnoxiously so.

He had always bought at least one pack of glow-in-the-dark stickers. It became essential to him as he got older since it reminded him of home. Not the broken home. But the home where both of his parents were present.
