Sunoo sits crossed legged on the floor with Jungwon sprawled over the carpet of his apartment, a tablet in Jungwon's hand whilst Sunoo wields a pen and a book. It was getting colder so the two were sat in front of Jungwon's fireplace with a shared bowl of snacks and a cup of tea for each of them and perhaps they weren't acting careful enough.

"Thanks for helping me, Won," Sunoo smiles at the boy who's clearly infatuated with the research he was doing, "I honestly have no idea what that grump would expect me to pick for him!" he whines and at that Jungwon laughs.

"You can stop calling him a 'grump'," He lifts himself off the floor and boops his unsuspecting noes with his index finger, "I've seen the way you've looked at him."

"He's still a grump - he nearly killed me the first time I sang for him!" The older male cries and now he's the one that's collapsed and bleeding into Jungwon's carpet like a starfish.

Jungwon leans over him with that same teasing smirk. "Yeah, like when you were both kids." He lends Sunoo a hand and he groans in annoyance, not finding a good enough retort that will keep him sane and Jungwon off his case, "I just can't wait for that double date we're going to have!"

Sunoo opens his mouth to interject but he thinks it's better to change the subject than to deny his dicey feelings for the skater. "Have you found any songs you think would be good?" he leans over Jungwon's shoulder to peer at the screen, watching as a mini Sunghoon he thought he was more familiar with skates in front of the stand filled with his ever-growing fan base.

"I'm just seeing some of his performances and what songs he's skated to before - what suits his vibe now, that's what you can help me narrow down the suggestions I come up with." Jungwon explains and Sunoo draws his book in closer.

"Is that how you came up with these suggestions?" Sunoo mummers quickly before taking a careful sip of his tea. Jungwon nods before swiftly averting his attention to the tablet, almost urging Sunoo to watch with him.

"Imagine how nice it would be to have an athlete boyfriend?" Jungwon hums more to himself than Sunoo, but he already knows where this is going, "I mean you would get free tickets to everything, and you would never run out of date ideas - the visuals too-"

"Jungwon, you have a boyfriend." Sunoo knows he's not talking about himself, but he would do anything to cool down the thoughts that Jungwon practically forces into his head.

But Jungwon doesn't take it lightly, slapping the boy on his shoulder. "Hey, Jay is better than this skater guy!" He pouts and furrows his brows, "I wish we lived together - could I steal him?" Jungwon nudges Sunoo's side who rolls his eyes.

"Yeah, by all means, take the OCD freak away from me," He jokes and Jungwon salutes him before leaning in closer to Sunoo.

He whispers, "But I think you know who I was talking about when I was talking about the skater-"

"Ay, ay pay attention!" The older male squeals and practically pushes Jungwon off him, tapping the screen vigorously, "I'm working here!" his exasperated words only further amuse Jungwon but he's so red to the point he might implode so he refrains from pushing further.

"Alright, alright maybe we should watch this one since it has a lot of views," Jungwon watches as Sunoo opens his mouth so quickly interjects, "yeah, yeah I know Sunghoon doesn't care about the fame or whatever, but the audience can obviously tell when the performer is enjoying themselves - that's usually our most popular stages, right?"

Sunoo smiles and nods, chuckling to himself, "Can't argue with that," Jungwon picks up his cup and makes himself comfortable as he sets the tablet on the floor between them two. Sunoo warms his hands by the insulation of his mug, but as soon as he shuts his eyes to indulge in the tea, he realises what performance he's watching, "wait, wait-we can't watch this one."
