I GOT YOU, MINJAE. | ANTON LEE ™

FIVE.

'Oh, he's here.'

His mind raced, his eyes stuck on the obviously uncomfortable male. Before he could come up with a plan to talk to him, Eunseok grabbed his shoulder and yelled in his ear, "You like him?" Minjae turned his head and stared at him, his expression unreadable before he shook his head.

Eunseok chuckled and stood in front of him, "it's fine if you do, that's my friend, Anton." The male ears perked while his eyes widened, he never thought he could be in a more awkward situation. His senses feeling more advanced and his stomach turning with unease.

"Anton?" He mumbled, his eyes darting towards the other side of the room before rushing to the kitchen. Minjae's lanky fingers grabbed a red cup, lazily mixing different alcohols and chasers. He then turned around and glanced at the boy, his legs rushing over to the corner as he slightly began to panic.

And now that he was in front of him, he didn't know what to say. He couldn't help but stare at the majestic male mirroring him, his eyes glistening with curiosity. Within a few seconds, he was swept up by a random girl just as he was about to speak.

"Hey." Her hands resting on his arms as she gave him lustful eyes. "Hi?" Minjae eyes shifted down to her, his eyes filled with boredom while he waited for her response. "What's your name, handsome?"

'The hell does she want?'

He stared at her, his mood now sour at her for interrupting his plan, "Hyunsu. Jung Hyunsu." The lie flowed smoothly off his tongue before lifting his head to see the targeted boy push himself off the wall, stiffly walking away. "If you wouldn't mind, I have somewhere to be," his lips pressed in a thin line and his hand raised to push her head aside as he rushed to follow him.

Minjae's legs drew him closer before his hand grabbed the male's shoulder, his nose filled with the same aroma from the cafe. Coconut. As the male turned around confused, Minjae didn't even move an inch. His eyes gawking at the boy's features once again, meanwhile, the boy now known as Anton just stood there.

Maybe it was the drugs making him feel like this. His cheeks slightly rosy and his stomach filled with butterflies as he realized he was staring, "Fuck ... Hi." He managed to mumble as he played with his fingers. Anton on the other hand just stared at him, his lips in a slight frown.

"Hi. Aren't you the guy from earlier?" The lad spoke up louder, his dilated eyes now meeting the boy's. Anton dropped his head and nodded, his cheeks darkening in embarrassment as he waited for the other to start yelling. "I didn't think you'd be here."

Anton froze, his head shooting up quickly after. "You're not upset?" His brows furrowed while he awaited Minjae's response, but he only shook his head. "Things happen, that's not something I should get upset about." His hand now lifted the cup in his hand, consuming to concoction with a look of disgust.

'Ugh, how do people drink this?'

Meanwhile, Anton silently observed the boy before him. His hair messy, eyes blown open and slightly red, along with his red ears and all black attire. He could tell he was nothing but trouble. He was curious though. He wanted to know about him. "What's your name?" He mumbled, his eyes scattering across the room as he avoided Minjae's eyes. "Yoon Minjae, you?"

"Anton. Anton Lee."
