Jihoon

We soon reached the cafe they were talking about. It wasn't far from their studio which made sense. The cafe wasn't fancy, it literally was something that you would call 'down to earth'. But the name was a bit weird to be honest, at least weird for a cafe.

"Mephisto Pheles"

'Who named it again?'

"C'mon Jihoonie," Soonyoung said, holding a hand out for me to take as he held the car gate for me, making me blush even though I knew it was just pretentious and kindness. I pushed my thoughts to the back of my mind as I shook my thoughts away for me to focus on the man in front of me even if it's just for a few more moment.

I shyly took his hand as I helped myself out. He smiled at me so dearly that made me want to melt in his hands. "So, let's go. The others are already inside," he tugged my hand, leading me inside as he held the door open for me.

'What a gentleman you are!' my mind uttered a bit sadly for my own liking as I followed behind him with longing eyes that wanted to stay near him, no matter what.

"~Welcome to Mephisto~"

The interior had cool vibe to it, the wooden chairs and tables were neatly arranged. One of the walls was colored in black, a lot of scribbles on it with white marker as decorations while Mephisto himself was drawn in the middle, all proud and cool in his fancy suit along with his fancy ball printed scarf. His fangs were showing as he had a smug look plastered on his lips as one of his hands was holding his fancy hat over his head while the other one was holding his umbrella.

"Eins, Zwei, Drei" I mumbled as I saw the fancy writing at the bottom of his drawing, a childish chuckle escaping in the process. I heard Soonyoung mumbling something that sounded like "cute" to me, making me look at him only to find him already looking at me.

"You said something?"

He shook his head as he looked away but I could see how red his ears were.

'Is he feeling hot?'

The next thing that grab my attention was the cash counter that was also colored in black while a lots of green plants were peeking out from here and there. I didn't know wooden & black color could match this well. But soon my attention turned towards the sound of laughter, a few tables away from the place we were standing.

Chan was smiling brightly as he showed some cheap magic tricks, making the others laugh hysterically at his failed attempt but still it didn't discourage him one bit. As soon as he noticed us, he waved at us, smiling ear to ear. It was the brightest smile I've seen him making while looking at me at least, making me smile back at him.

'Both Kwons have the most contagious smile'

I felt myself being pulled towards the direction by none other than Soonyoung himself while I just smiled, looking at the interlocked hands like a fool I was.

'I am a fool for living in this fantasy knowing it wouldn't last long'

Soonyoung pulled a chair for me to take, making me unable to not wanting to melt. I found myself sitting between Samuel & Soonyoung while Chan sat next to Sam and Minghao & Jun sat on the opposite side, facing us.
