You Belong With Me | Jeongcheol Fanfic

Chapter 64

A Sunday morning dawned clear and warm, with a soft, golden light filtering through the tall windows of Jeonghan and Seungcheol's New York apartment. The city outside was bustling, but inside, their shared space felt like a serene oasis, perfect for focusing on creative work. Jeonghan had laid out an impressive array of materials and supplies across the living room floor: delicate fabric swatches, bold marker pens, sketchbooks, and his tablet, which glowed with the latest design ideas he'd been working on.

Today was especially exciting for him. He had a school project that required designing an outfit fit for the runway, a task that sparked a thousand ideas in his mind. After breakfast, Jeonghan had slipped into a light, comfortable outfit—a silk tank top that shimmered as he moved and a pair of loose shorts, a combination that allowed him to move freely and stay cool under the warmth streaming in through the windows. His reading glasses were perched on his nose, magnifying the intense focus in his eyes as he lost himself in the creative process.

Seungcheol, on the other hand, had finished his work for the morning and was taking a break from his computer. When he wandered into the living room, he found Jeonghan sitting cross-legged on the floor, intensely focused, completely absorbed in his work. Every detail of Jeonghan's posture, from the slight furrow in his brow to the way he chewed lightly on the end of his pencil, caught Seungcheol's attention. He leaned against the doorway, feeling warmth fill his chest as he watched Jeonghan work.

Jeonghan was stunning in his own world of creativity, the soft silk of his tank top highlighting his slender shoulders, the tank pooling comfortably against his skin. There was something so enchanting about seeing him like this—lost in thought, fingers moving expertly through sketches and fabrics. Seungcheol couldn't help but admire how effortlessly stylish Jeonghan looked, as if he belonged on the cover of a fashion magazine instead of behind the scenes designing one.

Without realizing it, Seungcheol found himself captivated, just watching Jeonghan's process: the way his brow knit together in concentration, the way he adjusted his glasses occasionally, his hand gracefully flipping through swatches, deciding which colors and textures would bring his vision to life. After a few moments, Jeonghan must have felt his gaze, because he finally glanced up, his eyes catching Seungcheol's in surprise.

"What?" Jeonghan asked, his lips curling into a playful smile as he took in Seungcheol's soft, adoring expression. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Seungcheol walked over, sitting down beside him, a gentle smile tugging at his lips. "Because," he said in a warm voice, "I'm watching a genius at work. And my heart just can't keep up with how much I admire you." He reached out, brushing a strand of hair behind Jeonghan's ear, fingers lingering against his cheek. "You look beautiful when you're focused like this."

Jeonghan chuckled, feeling his cheeks heat up. "Flattery already? You're not going to distract me that easily, Mr. Choi," he teased, eyes twinkling as he leaned slightly into Seungcheol's touch.

"Oh, I'd never dream of it," Seungcheol replied, grinning. He took a moment to press a light, lingering kiss to Jeonghan's cheek, the familiar warmth of their connection grounding them both in that intimate moment. "But you know, if you need a coffee break or a second opinion, you can call me in. I'll be your best assistant."

Jeonghan rolled his eyes but couldn't hide his smile. "Alright, maybe I'll take you up on that." His gaze softened as he looked at Seungcheol, feeling a rush of gratitude for the love and support they shared. "But for now, let me focus. I want this design to be something special."

Seungcheol gave a gentle nod, brushing his thumb lightly over Jeonghan's hand before he stood up. "Anything you make will be special, especially with that passion of yours," he said, voice filled with pride.
