"I feel like fucking Taylor Swift," Sunghoon groaned as he dropped his pencil onto the notebook in front of him.

"Wow, a love song?" Jake asked with a chuckle of disbelief as he read over the words written on the cream-colored paper.

"What is wrong with me?" Sunghoon let out an exasperated sigh as he ran his fingers through his slightly yellowed locks.

"Maybe you're in love," Jake shrugged. "Deep, deep love," He grinned teasingly.

"I am not in love. I just like him a lot. Plus, he has a boyfriend. There's nothing I can do," The celebrity rolled his eyes; his tone became a bit bitter when he stated his "crush" was taken.

Yes, it was true. The two were referring to Jungwon and his special person was no other than, Lee Heeseung.

They had gotten together two months ago and were seemingly happy – extremely happy. It was incredibly obvious the two were dating even before they got together and now that they were official it was even worse.

They acted like the typical cliché couple; always clinging onto each other and calling each other the cringiest pet names that they found adorable. Every time Sunghoon was with the two or even just alone with Jungwon he felt like he'd puke.

He didn't understand how people could be so grossly in love. He prayed he'd never be that way with his future partner. It was utterly embarrassing. But, hey – love is love; except when it's illegal of course.

"Hm, 'Attention, please!'?" The golden retriever-like male read the big bold letters at the top of the page out loud. "Mind explaining?"

"I'm embarrassed," Sunghoon covered his face with his hands, the tip of his ears reddening.

"Hm, I'll just interpret it myself then," Jake shrugged before taking a pause to read over everything again. "You like Jungwon and want his heart but he doesn't see that you feel this way. You wish you could tell him but you don't have the courage and it'd hurt your pride so now you're just gonna wait and suffer in silence," He summed what he thought up.

"I-, how? Am I that obvious?" The silver-haired male asked with furrowed brows.

"I doubt your fans would know who you're talking about," The older smiled reassuringly. "Us as in our friends and Jay would definitely know though," He chuckled.

"I don't even care at this point. I just wish I could move on. I feel weird! I wasn't supposed to like anyone but myself!" He huffed with a pout subconsciously finding its place on his face.

"Do you not like me?" Jake frowned as he pinched the younger's cheeks as a way to coo at his cute expression and another way to tease him.

"Oh, don't make me confess how much I love you. This is supposed to be about me! Feel pity about my situation!" He crossed his arms.

"So you do love me?" The shorter asked, a smile plastered on his face.

"Don't act like I haven't told you this before! Be sad for me, damn it!" Sunghoon complained.

"I'm sorry, Hoon. It's just kind of fun teasing you," Jake giggled a bit as he hugged his best friend from behind; he swayed side to side resulting in the rolling chair Sunghoon sat on to move in the same way.

"Are you okay?" Jake wondered suddenly catching the younger off guard.

"Yeah, why?" The taller mumbled as he played with the pencil he used to write the lyrics to his new song.

"The more I reread this the sadder it gets. The closer 'I get to my dream the farther away I feel from you' that's deep," He replied with a tsk.

"I'm just a lyrical genius," Sunghoon boasted with a proud smile. "I had to exaggerate some things," The celeb shrugged.

"Well, I'm here if you need to talk... or someone to find you a da-," – "Ow!" Jake cut himself off with a cry of pain due to Sunghoon's long nails digging into his bare skin.

"Get out of my room," The younger of the two demanded the other.

"I'll be back," The shorter stated.

"No need," Sunghoon denied, shaking his head.

"Oh, I will. Bye-bye!" Jake smiled before pretending to go and kiss the taller male on the forehead.

"Ew! Go away!" The silver-haired male cried in disgust as he batted the other male away.

"I want to go home," Ni-ki whispered to Sunoo who was sitting beside him.

"Ditto, but there's no way we'd be able to leave without them suspecting we don't want to be around the while they're doing this...," The older answered.

The two were currently at Sun Peach because it was a Friday afternoon and they had nothing better to do. That wouldn't be a problem if the oh-so-in-love couple didn't tag along.

Jungwon was sitting on Heeseung's lap as the latter fed him their shared red velvet cake and shared vanilla latte.

That wouldn't be too much of a problem if the two weren't giggling, pecking each other all over the face, and covering each other with frosting while doing so.

"You're so cute, Wonnie," Heeseung complimented the younger for the nth time in the past twenty minutes as he poked his cheek where his dimple was indented.

"You're cuter," Jungwon smiled back as he booped his boyfriend's nose.

"Hyung, I genuinely feel sick, deadass. I want to go home," Ni-ki spoke up as he wrapped his arm around the smiley's.

"How do you feel? Are you about to throw up?" Sunoo asked with worry in his voice as he looked at the younger's uncomfortable face.

All Ni-ki did was nod in response leading to Sunoo clearing his throat, "Guys, we have to go. Ni-ki isn't feeling too well," He informed the two causing them to put a pause to their shenanigans.

"Oh, Riki, are you okay?" Jungwon asked with a small pout but the boy didn't answer and instead looked down at his lap.

"C'mon," Sunoo called out to his friend as he held his hand out.

Ni-ki did so and slid himself out of the booth they were sitting in.

"You two have fun on your date," The fox-eyed male smiled kindly before leading the ill boy out of the vicinity.
