My Nerf Neighbour

Third person POV

It had been 2 years since Jake had left. Life had continued for the two, and pretty soon, both were successful in their own way. Jake took over his family business, and Heeseung was the CEO of toy company-designing and building new toys to play with.

It had been a mega hit, ever since his experience through finding love. He wanted kids to feel the same-not for the love of romance but for the love of friendship, trust, long lasting promises.

Right now, both males were very busy with their own duties, but never did a day pass and they wouldn't think of each other. Jake thought of Heeseung's kindness and smile, while Heeseung remembered Jake's bright personality and laugh.

Neither knew what was happening with each other's lives...but it was about to get interesting.

Because the minute the deer like-looking man, with his grown purple hair and bangs that reached his eyebrows, matured features, and visibly taller height, stepped into the Aussie lands, life was going to take a turn.

He took in a slow breath, inhaling as he shut his eyes closed for a second.

Opening it again, he stared out into the airport with pure determination.

"I'm going to find you, Jaeyun. Just you wait."

Heeseung's POV

-One month ago-

"Can you-oh my god, put it down!" I groaned, palming my forehead while Niki swung the unicorn by its legs, round and round as others stared at him.

"But why! Look! It's flying!" He tossed it in the air and it landed back onto the basket full of unicorns.

I stared at it for a while, trying to comprehend everything. Then I turned back to Niki who now was going on to another toy and throwing it in the air.

"Are you not going to do anything?" I questioned Sunoo, who cooed at a fox doll on one of the shelfs.
He gave it one squish, glanced at his boyfriend, then ping-ponged his gaze back to me with so much sass I regretted even asking.

"Leave my baby alone, he's in that phase. Becoming an adult is hard you know?" And after practically roasting me, he proceeded to plop the stuff fox toy in his basket.

I rolled me eyes. He better be grateful I'm letting him shop at my toy store.
No actually, I better be grateful they're not ruining it to shreds, all 5 of them.

Jungwon was at the cat plushie section, with Jay as they squeezed all of their faces, hung them by their tails, and lastly stretching the whole plushie by the face and back.

Sunghoon was hiding his face behind different type of toys, even the smallest toys that only covered his nose. What was going on inside his head? I had not a single idea.

"Um...guys? I need to close the shop soon?" I announced, almost like a question because clearly, they weren't paying attention.

Niki, who was now the nearest to me, pouted. "Aw man! Please, five more minutes?"

I planted my hands on my hips. "Either you get that duck plushie for free, or I'm closing the shop and you get nothing."

The younger's eyes widened. "GUYS LET'S GO! NOW! Yes hyung, you too," he gently told Sunoo, who gaped surprised at him, "MOVE MOVE MOOOVEEEE!"

Five minutes later, I locked the door to my store, twisting the keys with a sigh.

"Okay, so what do you guys want to do now?" Sunghoon asked, squeezing the small penguin in his hands.

I stared at him lazily. "Sleep."

Immediately, the others followed, groaning. "Nooo! Hyung, the night's still young! And you should be having fun, not working 24/7 with nothing for yourself!" Sunoo whined, tugging at my arm.
