The sun was still relatively high in the sky, the nice array of clouds making the perfect temperature for seungmin and his assistant as they made their way out of the cute ice cream shop the older had picked out.

Now the two were sitting outside the shop, on the dining patio out front, a nice curtain style overhang shading them as they enjoyed their cold treat. Seungmin once again somehow finding the confidence to sit right next to the younger, admittedly still a little nervous as their knees were almost touching until the table.

Is he uncomfortable..? Am I too close..

Seungmin looked down at the other as he quietly licked his ice cream cone, not really looking at him, causing the older to feel a bit concerned something had gone wrong.

"Is your ice cream alright..?" He asked the blonde, glancing at his cone and then back at him.

"Hm? Oh yeah it's really good, thanks for taking me...and paying.." he smiled, still looking a bit uncomfortable as he kept fidgeting, the older of course noticing this.

"Of course.." he smiled. "But are you sure everything's alright? is something else bothering you?" Seungmin asked, tilting his head.

Oh great going jeongin! He totally knows you're freaking out!! Ugh!

Sungi was wrong....I can't do this..

"No, no I'm alright." The younger disagreed, nodding a little.

"You're sure..?" The older asked, raising his brow at him.

The younger nodded again, giving a small smile. "Mhm, just thinking a bit... that's all." He reassured him.

"Oh...ok." seungmin nodded, taking a spoonful of ice cream, his eyes still on his assistant. "So...what were you thinking about?" He asked.

Omg what do I say to that??

Ok jeongin, just come up with something chill and normal!

"Oh, well, I was just thinking about today- and his much I enjoy being with you." He said quickly, a smile on his face though his thoughts were anything but happy.

OMG, THAT WAS NEITHER NORMAL, NOR CHILL!??

"Oh.."

"Um- yeah, I mean that was basically what I was thinking about." Jeongin laughed nervously. "Not in a weird way or anything!" He said defensively, the older tilting his head, a little confused until he suddenly understood the younger's nervous body language and words.

"Jeongin?" He asked.

"Yeah..?"

"Um...I want to ask you something, and it's probably going to sound really...um unprofessional.. maybe..but I just want to be honest..?"

"Um.. sure? What do you mean..?" The younger asked, a little less nervous as he became curious of what his boss was going to ask.

Seungmin let out a small sigh, fixing his posture before looking directly at jeongin again, preparing himself.

"I know we're coworkers.." he said calmly, clearing his throat. "and I might be just seeing what I want to see when I think this.." he said, reaching to place his hand over jeongins. "But every time we talk, or we're just together...I feel like there's something between us." He confessed.
