Stay Stay Stay ||Choi Yeonjun||

24

I sat beside the window, coffee cup in hand, watching the slowly drifting snowflakes. There was slight snowfall and the entire city was covered with a thin blanket of snow like sugar dusted on pastries. I had to admit, after the amazing night I was still left in the cold aftermath of overthinking which shattered every happy thought. My mind ran around in circles until late at night when I finally slept after fitful tossing and turning.

What are we now? Does this mean we are dating? Did he mean the kiss or was it just the spur of the moment? What if he wants to hide our relationship? Wait, am I okay with us hiding? Does that mean we will be in a situationship?.... On and on it went, like a broken record.

The hot coffee soothed my frazzled nerves. I decided to just talk freely with Yeonjun. He was always so level-headed. It was better to have an open conversation than go on like this. He had already texted me his address and updated on Hueningkai who had puked his guts on Yeonjun's carpet last night. My poor man had to go through something with these two drunk catastrophes of men last night.

I tried to do some chores around the house and put on music to distract myself. Finally, I showered and dressed to go to Yeonjun's. I stopped on the way to get some delicious looking cheesecakes, for my Mom and them. Reaching there, I took the elevator to his condo.

I smoothed my shirt down as I waited for him to open the door. The door opened and Yeonjun's disheveled head popped out. Seeing me, he smiled wide and ushered me inside. His place was neat and clean, like I expected from Yeonjun. It was all creme and black walls, with Cambrian blue furniture and decor. There were abstract paintings hanging on the wall.

Hueningkai emerged from one of the rooms, drying his hair violently with a towel. Yeonjun is quick to take off the bag from my hands thanking me profusely for the gift then excuses himself to the kitchen.

"Now I understand why he was spending hours choosing today's menu! "

"What—? "

"Hmm... I think he searched in google, doomscrolled through Instagram and Pinterest to set up lunch. Now I know why. "

My face was hot at his insinuation. Did Yeonjun tell him about us?

"Anyways, how are you feeling? "

"I had the nastiest hangover, but Yeonjun's soup worked like medicine. So I'm better now. "

"That's good to hear. Please don't ever drink so much again! I never had such worse muscle cramps than what I got after pulling your entire weight! "

"YAH! I'm not that heavy! "

"Yes you are! And do you even remember what you and Suyeong were doing to poor Yeonjun? You were literally all over him like a koala, while the poor man tried to keep Suyeong upright so Bora doesn't get crushed to death by him! "

Hyuka shook his head as if trying to dispel the images of his drunk tomfoolery. Then he had a sly creepy smirk as he turned to face me again.

"Are you jealous? "

He asked while wiggling his eyebrows. God this man's brain was something else. I sat there flabbergasted then sputtered out.

"Holy Cow! What?! Why— Now why would I be jealous of you looking like a crazy crackhead koala?! "

"Hey! That's not— were you jealous that I hugged Yeonjun and you couldn't? Admit it, you wanted to be in my place?

" Lord save me from ever embarrassing myself like this in front of him! I would rather jump in a ditch then act so in front of Yeonjun. Dude, use your brain! I like him, I want him to see me as perfect, not like an absolute weirdo! "
