Unexpected Admiration | Haobin

11

When Hao first made eye contact with Hanbin he was a bit taken back, he didn't expect to see the younger at this time. It was lunch time so shouldn't he be with his friends?

He was genuinely confused until Hanbin mentioned that the two still needed to have a discussion. He gasped in realization, he had completely forgotten about how he needed to talk to Hanbin. Feeling bad remembering how he was the one that told the younger they'd talk the day after their mini banter.

He had been so busy with Sunwoo's lessons that he completely forgot. He wasn't used to someone his age being so eager to learn violin so he got a little too happy, so much to the point that he let lessons consume his free time. All the people he's taught were usually in early middle school- well besides Gyuvin- so when Sunwoo came asking for private lessons Hao thought maybe he could use this as a way to be more sociable and express his love for the instrument.

Originally Hao was excited that he was teaching Sunwoo violin but now he was kinda questioning both his decision and the older boy. He noticed the Sunwoo would caress his hand whenever he'd tune the violin and the older would even attempt to subtly smell Hao when he bent towards him to readjust the newbies position.

Speaking of which, the older boy seemed to be quite forgetful when it came to memorizing basic violin etiquette. It was already his third lesson but he hadn't memorized any notes or even how to hold the instrument. However Sunwoo seemed to never forget to throw compliments at Hao any chance that he could. Sunwoo would compliment his outfit, hair, and perfume almost every other lesson. If it was on Hao he'd compliment it.

"Hao-shi who's this? I thought I paid for a private lesson." Asks Sunwoo looking at Hao with a frown before turning to Hanbin, eyes shifting from cute to cold. Hanbin noticing the boys shift in attitude rolled his eyes.

"Ah right... Hanbin, could we talk later? I'm in the middle of a lesson right now..." Hao lets out only for Hanbin to immediately shut him down, "Hyung I think we both know if we don't talk now this conversation that we both know needs to happen might not happen for another week, maybe longer. So please, can we talk?" Hanbin says

Hao sighs knowing that the younger was right. Turning his gaze to Sunwoo, Hao smiles brightly before speaking, "Sunwoo hyung, do you mind if we end this lesson early? We were a little halfway through the lesson, you can pay for half since we couldn't-" "I don't want to end the lesson, why can't he wait?" Sunwoo says cutting off Hao, with obvious frustration laced in his tone.

"W-well I understand if you don't want to end it but I have some personal business to attend to-" Hao says only to be cut off once again "But its my turn first, is it not? Plus I'm older, shouldn't you listen to hyun? Can't he wait till-"

Scoffing loudly and with an angry expression Hanbin immediately interrupts Sunwoo, "Yah! Who are you to talk to Hao hyung like that! And no I can't wait-"

"Talk to him like what! What the hell are you even insinuating, I would never disrespect Hao-shi like that what the-"

As the two were arguing amongst themselves, Hao's patience was running thin.  It really only took a few more seconds if loud nonsense before Hao snapped. Hao lets out an annoyed exhale before speaking up, "Yah Sung Hanbin! Kim Sunwoo!"

Surprised by the sudden booming of Hao's voice. Both boys immediately go quiet and look at Hao with full attention. Hao looks at Hanbin, slightly softening his gaze before turning to Sunwoo, "Hyung whether you like it or not our session is over, free of charge for the inconvenience. However, I do not and will not tolerate any attitude from you. You are my hyung, yes. But when I'm teaching you I have the authority. Do you understand, Kim Sunwoo?"

Both of the boys in-front of Hao were shocked by his tone, cold and intimidating. Practically the complete opposite of what the two had previously heard from the boy.
