"He is so beautiful," Kyungsoo whimpers for the hundredth time as he stares forlornly at the barista of the campus cafe. The slightly older man has just finished wiping down the counters and organizing the vast array of styrofoam cups and is now trying to discreetly play with his phone. "How is he so beautiful?" He asks dreamily as his head falls forward to plop down into the cup of his hand.

Baekhyun, who is sitting across from his besotted friend, has an expression of thorough disgust plastered on his face. Chanyeol looks offended. "I'm better, right Kyungsoo?" Chanyeol asks, nudging the smaller's elbow anxiously. "I'm more beautiful."

"Touch me one more time, and you lose that hand," Kyungsoo says flatly, jerking his arm away from his friend. A pout juts out Chanyeol's lip and his eyes widen endearingly, but the other misses the blatant display of aegyo in favor of gazing at the attractive boy. "Junmyeon sunbaenim," His shoulders rise and fall with the sigh that fills out the end of his name. He seems to sink into himself with the rush of pure adoration that flows out of him.

"If you like him so much," Baekhyun says lightly, his voice tight from the amount of control he is exerting to be patient. "Why don't you ask him out?"

Kyungsoo's head snaps up. "Are you an idiot? I can't do that!" He snarls.

"And why is that?"

"Because, you know," A deep blush spreads over Kyungsoo's face. "I'm me." He gestures over his body dismissively with the hand that's not holding his vanilla latte. "And he's... him."

Baekhyun shrugs. "I think you have a shot." He then glances at Kyungsoo once, who has reverted back to hugging himself and mumbling into the curve of his arm. "... You just need help. A lot of help."

This seems to grab Kyungsoo's attention again. "What kind of help?"

"Like a coach!" Chanyeol supplies helpfully, beaming.

"Yeah, like a love coach...." Baekhyun says thoughtfully. "Or I guess, more accurately, a dating guru?"

"MAKING LOVE!" Chanyeol bellows excitedly, effectively making everyone in the vicinity (including Junmyeon) turn and stare at them. "I CAN TEACH KYUNGSOO HOW TO MAKE LOVE!"

Baekhyun and Kyungsoo leap up, seize their backpacks, coats, and drinks, and make a beeline for the door, dragging Chanyeol behind them. "Well," Baekhyun claps a hand to Kyungsoo's shoulder, panting. "He definitely noticed your existence that time."

Kyungsoo groans and shoves Baekhyun away from him.

The next day, a little after Kyungsoo had returned to his apartment after his biochem lab, there is a tentative knock on his front door.

Kyungsoo, who had been lounging around in the living room, immediately leaps to his feet. Baekhyun had texted him only a few hours ago with a long-winded paragraph about his general "awesomeness" and how "lucky you are to be my friend kyungsoo you bitch", and then the concise announcement that his new dating guru would come meet him after his 5pm lecture.

Unsure what to expect, Kyungsoo pauses in his path to the entry door to smooth down his messy hair in the reflection of the microwave. How had Baekhyun found this person? Is Kyungsoo expected to pay for his services? What is the socially acceptable way to introduce yourself to someone who will be teaching you the art of seduction?

But when he opens the door, all nerves instantly fly out of him to be replaced with pure confusion. Jongin is standing in front of him, smiling nervously at him with a backpack slung over his shoulder and a red beanie on his head. "Hey," Kyungsoo greets him, tilting his head to the side. "Do you need something?" His roommate comes into mind. "Tao's not here right now, if you were looking for him."
