Thus Far in Effect | HEEHOON 🔞

The Car

Sunghoon couldn't resist Heeseung, not even a little bit. If he had been able to, he wouldn't be in the situation he was in now. Truthfully, he loved how things turned out, he always enjoyed Heeseung's touch on him no matter the consequences, but even then, he had to admit this was a lot.

It hadn't been the idea from the start, at least Sunghoon wanted to believe Heeseung hadn't planned it like that. First thing in the morning, after they had spent the night together, Heeseung had offered to drive him to class. It wasn't necessary and Heeseung didn't have any classes until an hour after, but he still agreed; he didn't really feel like walking that much. It wasn't that unusual for them, anyway, so it wouldn't even be suspicious. Throughout the day, Sunghoon went to his classes and texted Heeseung whenever he was bored; Heeseung always replied to him so it was only natural to text him. He had lunch with Jake, who refrained from judging him out loud, though he was definitely thinking it. Especially whenever Sunghoon received a reply from Heeseung.

It was a nice, calm and relaxed day.

Once his day was over, Sunghoon was just going to walk home. It wasn't far and he didn't feel like taking the bus. But as he was walking out, he noticed Heeseung's car was still there. Which made no sense, because Heeseung was supposed to be done way earlier than him, he should have been gone already. Sunghoon tried to reason that maybe something held him up, maybe he had something else to do and hadn't left yet. Sunghoon also told himself that it was not his goddamn business.

But he was, oh so curious.

He walked exactly two steps in the direction of the car before stopping. He shouldn't be doing this, at the most, he should just ask Heeseung where he was. They'd been texting all day, it wouldn't even be out of place.

where r u? (16:34)

Sunghoon sent, simple and short. He pretended not to be anxious about the reply, though he didn't have to wait long.

waiting for you♡ (16:34)

Surprised by the speed at which Heeseung had answered, Sunghoon had no time to process when the car's door suddenly opened and Heeseung got out, looking a bit like he'd been napping in there.

At that moment, Sunghoon didn't even have time to panic or think about what he wanted to do, because Heeseung was looking at him. He was frozen in place as Heeseung walked up to him, waving and smiling. There was a small moment of hesitation as Heeseung stood next to him, before he was casually pulling him towards his car, saying something about driving him back home. Sunghoon didn't need this. He should tell Heeseung he could walk, that he'd prefer it even. He should not get inside that car knowing full well anyone could see and, while that wasn't a problem, he just knew Jake or Riki would find out and then he'd be scolded again. Because there was no way that if he got in that car with Heeseung that they wouldn't end up in each other's arms again.

And he almost spoke up, almost. But then, Heeseung looked at him with those eyes of his, smiled just for him and he was gone. There was no way he could tell him no. So, he got into the car. Now, here's where things started getting out of hand. Sunghoon should have seriously resisted a little more, just enough not to end up in this situation.

"Hey, you've got to fasten your seatbelt properly," Heeseung said. He hadn't even turned on the car, so Sunghoon didn't get what the hurry was. Still, of course, he complied. Because he always did. Except he was nervous and that made him clumsy, so he kept failing to buckle the belt.

"Fuck this shit," he groaned in frustration. Sunghoon let go of the belt for a moment to try and get a better hold of it. Heeseung, however, took this as an invitation to help.
