"I don't want to go in."
"You have to."
"Why Jay? Why?"
"Because we said we'd come so hurry up." Jay drags the younger boy towards the door and ringing the door bell. As they wait, Jay finally takes a good look at Jungwon's outfit, smiling a tiny bit. "You dressed up nicely.." Jay comments with a smile. "Well yeah isnt this celebration also for her birthday?" Jungwon mumbles, still confused on why exactly he was invited.
"You didn't even dress this nicely for my birthday.."
"I've been in a coma for 11 months give me a break."
Jungwon wore black suit pants with a black button up shirt, a few buttons undone with a coat on top. He looked around as they waited for someone to open the door, Jungwon hating the snow.
The door finally opened and the two were greeted by Aera. "Hello guys! How was the drive?" She smiles while letting them in, Jay responding with how annoying the snow was.
Jungwon stays silent as he follows behind them, a small gift bag in his hand. He waits for Aera to close the door before handing her the bag. "What's this?"
"A birthday present.." he says quietly, not really sure how to act.
"You didn't have to. This was a way for me to thank you for saving my life remember." She smiles, the boy responding.
While to others they'd think he's shy or just rude, yet Jay saw where his eyes lingered, and how his breath slowly sucked in but took a while to come back out.
Aera walked ahead of the two and led them to the living room as Jay looked back at the younger. "Good thing for you it's not obvious when you're in awe." Jay whispers, jungwon glancing back at him. "No idea what you're talking about."
"Mhm okay."
The jungwon doesn't reply in shock when seeing who was in the living room with Aera's friends.
"Hyung?"
Heeseung smiled at Jungwon. "Hey, I didn't know that girl you liked was Aera." He says loudly, obviously teasing the boy. "Hyung.." jungwon grumbles, walking towards the older. "C'mon, you really wanted some skin ship huh, and played it off as saving her."
Jungwon's face started to turn red, as well as Aera's. "Heeseung stop teasing the poor boy." A woman says, Jungwon's eyes following to the girl with a baby on her lap. "Oh my god.. Hana?" He smiles, the girl nodding her head.
