-------------------the sun was setting, casting a warm, golden hue across the city, and the car show was still buzzing with life.
people wandered among gleaming vehicles of every shape and size, their surfaces polished to a mirror-like finish.
the crowd's chatter filled the air, punctuated by bursts of laughter and the occasional revving engine. it had been a long day, but for jisung, it was a day filled with anticipation, with one particular moment looming in his mind, growing nearer with each step they took.
minho, as always, was in his element. he had a camera in one hand and his phone in the other, snapping pictures of every car that caught his eye, which, truthfully, was almost all of them.
hyunjin, who shared minho's passion for cars, mirrored his energy. together, they darted from one vehicle to another, animatedly discussing the specifications, the engines, and the feel of each car.
jisung watched them with a fond smile, feeling his heart swell at the sight of his boyfriend so blissfully happy.
minho had always loved cars. ever since they started dating, jisung had learned to appreciate the excitement that would light up minho's face at the sight of a beautifully engineered machine.
minho would go on for hours, explaining the difference between various models, talking about torque, horsepower, and aerodynamics. to minho, cars were not just vehicles-they were works of art, engineering marvels that brought together both form and function in perfect harmony.
jisung chuckled under his breath. he could never keep up with the technical jargon, but he loved listening to minho. there was a light in minho's eyes, a passion that could brighten even the dullest of days. it was that same passion that made jisung's heart race today, as he prepared for the surprise he had been planning for weeks.
it had been a few months since minho's car had broken down. it was old and had served him well, but it had reached the end of its life.
minho had taken it in stride, as he did with most things, deciding to save up for a new one. he started taking the bus or walking to his cat café, even in less-than-ideal weather.
jisung had offered to help, to pitch in for a new car, but minho, ever-proud, had politely refused. he didn't want to accept money from jisung, insisting he could manage on his own.
he was always like that-modest.
minho was raised in a normal family, where people enjoy the little things. he never had this much, but he was always happy with what he had.
jisung, on the other hand, had grown up with expensive hotels and restaurants and things like that. his family was wealthy. like, really wealthy.
and when minho's car finally give out, jisung has made his decision. he had other ideas. if minho wouldn't let him help directly, he'd find another way. a grander way. a way that minho could never say no to.
the perfect opportunity had come when their friends-chan, changbin, hyunjin, felix, seungmin, and jeongin-had suggested a day out at the car show.
jisung, who knows almost nothing about cars, had agreed immediately, knowing this could be the day for his big surprise. the moment he'd been dreaming of.
jisung could feel his excitement bubbling over as they approached a section of the show where a few luxury cars were parked, roped off from the crowd. there, gleaming under the lights, was the black bugatti la voiture noire-minho's dream car.
