~~~ Hyunjin ~~~
"Was there something you needed Innie?" He asked once things had died down.
Jeong-in shook his head, "No...well, it's not necessarily a need. More like I just wanted to check in and maybe gossip a bit with my best friend," he answered grinning. "I had no idea that I'd be running into Mr. Wonderful over here," he said pointing towards Minho with his thumb.
Hyunjin groaned, covering his face, "Min, don't go getting a big head now that Jeong-in's spilled the beans."
Minho chuckled, "Wouldn't dream of it. Tell you what, why don't I go and get breakfast for everyone?" He suggested, "Give you some time to talk and gossip without worrying about me."
"See? Told you he was amazing," Hyunjin said proudly, and beamed when Minho just laughed and planted a kiss on his forehead, promising to be right back.
They both waited until they could hear the door close behind him before bursting into a fit of giggles and squeals. "Oh my gosh I can't believe you've been talking about the Lee Minho this whole time!" I. N. gasped, an awe filled smile on his face. "I sort of thought you were over exaggerating but...I stand corrected."
"I know, I'm sort of still pinching myself," He admitted, feeling those insecurities threatening to rear their ugly head once more. "But enough about me, what was this juicy gossip you came to tell me about?"
The younger boy perked up but his smile became almost shy. Okay, now he was really interested. "Well uh....Bang Chan drunk texted me last night."
"He did WHAT?!" He knew that his best friend had a bit of a crush on the director but he didn't know that they even had any real contact with each other. "Lemme see."
"I can't..." I. N. said with a blush. "It wasn't just words...he uh, he sent nudes too."
Hyunjin sucked in a breath, "Oh my gawd, he certainly doesn't mess around does he? So...what are you going to do about it?"
Jeong-in let out an exasperated sigh, "That's why I'm here. I don't know."

He made a detour to his condo to shower and change, the butterflies making a home in his heart having yet to subside since the declarations they made that morning. Part of him had feared that Hyunjin's words last night were mainly alcohol induced and not at all reflective of his true feelings. But he made it quite clear that he meant it, that he wanted them to be together as a couple. And then his best friend came around and confirmed that Hyunjin really did care about him. You didn't brag to your friends about just anyone. Not in the way that Jeong-in was alluding to. It was one thing to do a bit of kiss and tell about a wild night you had, but talking about how thoughtful was another.
Mr. Wonderful, that's what he called him.
He could only hope to live up to such a name. It wasn't lost on him that celebrity aside, Hwang Hyunjin was an extremely attractive individual. And on top of that he had a charismatic personality that attracted many people to him. He was vibrant, funny and held far more depth than one might assume. It wasn't the typical vapid, beautiful person that frequented their industry but instead he had a sensitive, highly intelligent side that just blew Minho away. So it was humbling to hear that Hyunjin held him in such a high regard.
"What's with that stupid smile on your face?" Felix teased, breaking Minho out of his reverie. He'd come to the bakery for breakfast, his sweet tooth leading him once again. This time his little brother was actually at the counter himself and to no surprise Jisung was there too, headphones on and laptop in front of him. It seemed when he wasn't on set he came here to spend as much time with his brother as possible. It was a bit strange to see them together at first, but when he really thought about it, he loved them both and Han wasn't a bad choice for a partner by any means.
"Shut up Lix, it's..." he paused, searching for the right words or at least the best place to start, "Well, remember that guy I've been talking about?" Felix nodded, "Great, well we finally became official," Minho announced with a grin.
"Oh yay! I'm so happy for you Min Min!" Felix shouted almost jumping over the counter as he pulled his brother in for a hug.
All the commotion drew Han's attention and he looked up from his laptop immediately stopping everything and skipped over towards the two Lee brothers. "What are we celebrating?"
"Minho's got a boyfriend!"
He blushed, "Gosh Lix, you make it sound so juvenile." Before he could say anything else he felt another set of arms wrap around him and he exhaled loudly, "Oh no Sung, not you too." Still he accepted the love from them both, knowing that it came from a place of real affection. In the past he's been sort of apathetic about love and relationships, feeling like it was just one of those things that he would never get to participate in but he was blessedly wrong about that.
"Enough already, you're both starting to suffocate me," Minho said, still smiling. "Now can you please serve me my food and drinks please? Hyunjin's waiting for me."
There was a collective gasp, then squealing and then the only way he was able to leave the shop was by promising to give them the full run down once he was free.
~~~ Hyunjin ~~~
As nice as it was to spend the morning with his best friend and his lover, chomping on pastries and guzzling coffee but he was extremely happy when they finally found themselves all alone. His headache was gone and all that remained was the warm, syrupy feeling he felt as he looked over at Minho. "We should go on a date," he said suddenly, interrupting the quiet comfort that had settled in the room.
"Hmm?" Came from Minho who didn't even bother looking up and Hyunjin suspected that he was probably close to dozing off.
"I'm serious," he said softly, nudging his lover. "We're official now. But I feel like a real date is long overdue. I'm talking about something legit, not just going back to my place or yours, eating food and then fucking like rabbits."
Now he had Minho's full attention, "So you want to go out to eat and then come back and fuck each other into oblivion?"
"Precisely."
