10. the after party

yunho and mingi had spent most of the night together, talking about everything and nothing at the same time.

it was now 1 a.m. and almost everyone had gone home. wooyoung and san left early since they had a trip to jeju for their anniversary the next day. yeosang was too drunk for his own good so seonghwa took him home, before he would embarrass himself in front of jongho, who was helping yunho and mingi clean up the house.

"i think i'm gonna head out mings, i'll see you at school! and yunho, remember about dinner tomorrow"

"i know, i know"

both boys waved jongho goodbye and finished cleaning up. yunho yawned loudly and started to rub his eyes, the tiredness in his body taking over. mingi started smiling at the boy's cuteness causing yunho to blush and hit him softly on the shoulder.

"hey it's getting late and i have to go catch the bus so i think i'll leave now"

"the bus? at one in the morning?"

"yeah..."

"that's stupid! i'll drive you there"

"noo! it's okay, you don't have t—"

"then stay"

for a few seconds, they stared at each other in silence. a faint blush creeping up yunho's face.

"please, i'll take you home tomorrow morning, you can't be out there this late"

"but i don't have any clothes here, i really don't want to bother you"

mingi walked closer to yunho and gently caressed his shoulders, taking the older by surprise.

"you're not bothering me. i'll let you borrow some of my clothes, just don't leave yet"

yunho nodded slightly, mingi's boldness making him give in. they headed upstairs to mingi's room, memories from earlier coming back as soon as they entered.

"mhm... is it ok if i wash up first?"

mingi was obviously nervous and he wanted to get out of there as quick as possible, even if that meant he couldn't see yunho's adorable face. yunho answered with a hum and then he headed to the bathroom.

yunho was sitting on mingi's bed, waiting for his turn to shower when suddenly the door opened, revealing a heavenly looking mingi. he had a towel wrapped around his waist, his chest bare and his skin slightly wet. he walked towards the closet across the bathroom and grabbed a change of clothes.

"sorry, i forgot my clothes"

yunho laughed quietly, still hypnotized by mingi's beauty.

when he came out once again, he was covered, wearing some grey sweatpants and a black tank top. without noticing, yunho was checking the other one out, starting from his firm chest going down to his small waist and finally landing on his crotch, he could almost see everything and he wondered if he'd ever get to see mingi in all of his glory but he quickly shook away the dirty thoughts.

"yunho? you ok?"

"o-oh yeah, i just..."

"what? you think i didn't see you?"

yunho blushed again for the nth time as mingi walked closer to him. the shorter looked down at yunho, who was still sitting on the bed. he caressed his chin softly and made the older look up to him, his eyes disguised with innocence.

mingi then kneeled slowly while his strong hands traveled to yunho's neck and then pulled him in firmly. their faces were millimeters apart, yunho's breath unsteady and a defeated expression washing over him. his barriers seemed to break down every time the other was near.

mingi got even closer to him and the older slowly closed his eyes, his lips ready to clash with the mingi's , but instead, a small kiss was placed on his forehead.

the intimacy of the moment remained when mingi moved away. his hands now cupping yunho's face. they made eye contact and a smile painted their faces.

both got up and yunho headed to the shower as mingi waited outside and started to get the bed ready. when yunho came out, he was wearing the basketball shorts and a white t-shirt mingi had given him.

"you look good in my team's uniform"

"uh huh, i look good in everything"

"mmm true" mingi chuckled at the others words.

"so...where am i gonna sleep?"

"what do you mean?" mingi patted the bed and saw yunho's embarrassed face as he got in.

"if you want, i can go sleep in the couch" mingi uttered.

"noo, please stay"

mingi smiled at how cute yunho was, his puppy eyes sparkled like the stars and he melted instantly.

"mingi?" yunho took mingi out of his daze and he listened attentively to the older.

"do you maybe... want to cuddle?"

"i'd love to!"

mingi hugged yunho tightly as he nuzzled in his neck, smelling his fresh personal scent. he couldn't believe the boy he liked was laying so close to him. he wished time could stop so they would stay like this forever.
