Puppy Love • Seungchan/Chanmin

•⊱•••• 43 (M) ••••⊰•

After more than enough time soaking in the baths Chan follows Seungmin back into their room, the tension thick between them.

Their trip may have been a roller coaster but it was slowly panning out to be quite steamy, and it wasn't because of the water.

Seungmin's comments in the spring were giving Chan ideas, dangerous ideas. Ideas he literally wasn't prepared for.

How could one know when you were ready for such... things?

The complete thought of taking Seungmin back to his room and asking if he wanted to have sex made him feel gooey inside, it made his heart flutter, his body buzz. But they couldn't, could they?

"You can take a shower first," Chan smiles politely at Seungmin once the door is closed. Maybe that would give him some time to think this over?

"Sounds good," Seungmin says softly before retrieving his toiletries from his overnight bag, and grabbing the provided towel that was left on the bed.

Chan resists staring at the younger as he walks into the bathroom adjacent to their bed. There were still a few remaining tendrils of water dripping down Seungmin's neck and Chan was drawn in like a weary traveller to an oasis.

Chan turns to his own bag, distracting himself as he gathers his own toiletries, but his attention is on his bag for less than a minute before his head is snapping up.

"Chann?" Seungmin calls.

"Mmm??" Chan hums back in question.

Seungmin goes quiet and the sounds of running water fill the room.

Chan jumps up to his feet, coming closer to the door. "You ok? Did you forget something? Is there something wrong with the shower?"

"Oh no, no." Seungmin calls back. "I was just t-thinking if you wanted, maybe...you can- umm... do you want to j-join me... I-in the shower?"

Chan's heart pounds. Wait, what?!

Did Seungmin just invite him to join him in the shower? Surely he had misheard.

"Only if you w-want," Seungmin adds, his voice barely a whisper louder than the running water hitting the floor tiles.

Chan hadn't misheard.

Seungmin wanted to shower with him? Never in his wildest dreams did he ever think something like this would happen. But Seungmin had been so flirty back in the spring, both in his words and his teasing touches hidden beneath the water. Was this Seungmin telling him that he was ready? Seungmin's shy voice had certainly led Chan to believe so.

Chan suddenly looks at himself in the mirror by the bed. Although his heart was pounding and a visible flush had spread across his cheeks, he wasn't nervous, not completely, if anything he felt...excited? He trusted Seungmin, and he trusted his own instinct; all roads were leading to this point.

Chan looks back at the bathroom door that led to Seungmin. The younger was waiting for him, all wet and... naked.

Chan chokes on air, hitting his chest a few times to calm himself. This trip was supposed to be romantic, a first of many ventures for them. Whatever was behind that bathroom door, whether it be just a casual shower or something more, Chan was ready.

With steady steps Chan slides open the bathroom door and steps inside. Steam had already clouded the room and the glass had completely misted over.

"The water's hot, hopefully not too hot for you," Seungmin says over the running water.

Chan looked towards the shower itself, he couldn't see Seungmin completely, the shower door was made of frosted glass, but he could see the outline of his body. Of all things, it was that which embarrassed Chan- the way his body ached so intensely at the sight.
