'I'm getting deja vu,' Yeosang said as he sunk back into the booth seat in the back of the pizza parlour, contently full, unable to eat another thing, and feeling that perfect amount of food-coma-flavoured tired, with being just utterly relaxed.

Apparently having needed to cross the city to go to a sauna house for whatever reason, Jae and Rose had left after what had turned out to be a very pleasant evening, leaving him and Jongho behind. But instead of going for a walk on full stomachs, they'd stayed in the back corner in the warmth of the restaurant under the mood lighting, laughing and talking—and even kind of snuggling—to their hearts' content.

He felt a warmth in his stomach that could quite possibly have been radiating out from his soul, utterly happy and laughing too much at jokes that weren't even funny. He felt like a teenager again with the way his skin tingled where it melted against Jongho's and his side was burning warm where he was resting into Jongho's chest.

Hugging his knees but also leaning into Jongho's, he laughed as his foot slipped from the edge of the seat and his knee fell aside into Jongho's lap, cheeks heating a little like a shy kid in front of their first crush.

But Jongho only attacked his cheek with a brash kiss and an arm slipping around his newly exposed stomach to hug him nearer. 'I like how cuddly you are these days.'

He snorted. 'What do you mean, these days?'

Jongho let out a defensive laugh. 'I feel like I remember you swatting away my affection once upon a time.'

He rolled his eyes at him. 'Well, probably because we were friends with benefits then... Minus the friends bit,' he added after second thought. They'd barely known one another. 'More like, friend of a friend's with benefits?'

Jongho laughed. 'Well if we're going to get that technical about it, then I think "friend of a friend" might not be the best label, seeing as Yunho was my tutor. Maybe... Student of a tutor's friend's friend's colleague's roommate...'

Eyes wide in total confusion, he blinked randomly as he tried to track it back. 'Nope, I'm lost. Who's who?'

Jongho snorted. 'Yunho's friend San,'s friend's Seonghwa,'s colleague Hongjoong,'s roommate, you.'

Blinking widely as he thought about it, eventually, he gave up. 'Wow, it really was by chance that we met, huh?'

Jongho suddenly hugged him tight, cheek pressing hard to his temple that caused him to sink into himself. 'I'm glad we did.'

'And if we didn't? Would you have tried to rizz up Yunho?'

Jongho's hug instantly loosened as he leant back to stare at him in offence. 'I do not have a thing for Yunho!'

He smirked, reaching up to gently—and sassily—brush his shoulder. 'It's okay, nothing wrong with a little work crush~' He chose to leave out the slightly unethical part where they'd been work crushes, too...
