Taeyong and Winwin had been friends since they were in secondary school, and the days that have passed after that, have been very happy and memorable for the two. Along with Johnny and Ten, the four of them lived through student days together until...
After paying up the hospital bill, they had a taxi stop over which they hired. They first went to bring Johnny and Ten home, before heading back to their apartment.
They were at their desired destination and payed the driver. Taeyong grabbed all of the bags containing their clothing, and gave the key to Winwin.
"You open the apartment. You just came out of the hospital, so I will do the hard things for you." He explained, with the other giving a slow nod.
They entered the building and then the elevator. The elevator stopped and they proceeded to their own apartment, which is the best one in the whole building.
Winwin opened the door with the key, and they both went inside. He turned on the lights and got startled by party poppers popping.
"Winwin-ah! Welcome home~" Taeyong warmly exclaimed, putting down the party poppers to give the other a tight hug.
"Yah! You're literally crushing me."
"Owh, sorry. I just missed you soo much!" Taeyong happily explained to the other.
"We were almost always together though?"
"Yeah, but I miss being with you in our home. Anyways, go and rest for a while. I will be preparing something for us to eat, and if you would, please take a bath too. I hate the smell of that hospital." The Korean boy advised the other while pointing at the bathroom, with his other hand pinching his nose.
"As if I'm the only one who reeks of the same hospital smell... I will be taking a bath then, you better prepare some luxurious dinner for us." He flicked the other's forehead, earning a groan.
Taeyong firstly put their baggage to their respective rooms and went on to work at the kitchen. Winwin then went on to have his shower.
Taeyong was preparing Garlic Butter Shrimp, Vegetable Fried Rice and Carbonara for dinner, matched with home brewed black coffee. 'Pretty sure Winwin should be satisfied with what I prepared'

(Just for those who wants to know how it looks)
He placed the dishes on top of the dining table and set out some plates and eating utensils. He was feeling proud of himself with how far he has come with cooking, for the sake of Winwin. He was already sitting, just waiting for the Chinese boy to sit down with him.
It has been at most 1 hour since he started cooking and it's really weird that Winwin hasn't come out yet. 5 minutes more... 10 minutes more... Taeyong was already getting worried as to what happened to the other boy. He stood up and slowly walked towards the bathroom door. He knocked and knocked but there was no response.
He tried to turn the doorknob and fortunately, it was not locked. He went inside, seeing the shower curtain closed, covering the bath tub where he sees the shadow of Winwin.
"Winwin-ah? You have been in here for more than an hour already so I was very worried about you. Are you okay?" Taeyong calmly explained, still not receiving a response. He walked towards the bath tub and moved the shower curtain. There, Winwin was sitting with water surrounding him, spaced out. He poked the boy's cheeks to waken him up and luckily, it worked.
"Ah, Taeyong hyung... What are you doing here?" Winwin asked.
"It's because you've been here for more than an hour already! Can't you see how cold the water is? You should come out now and wear some clothes, you will catch a cold if you stay longer." Taeyong held Winwin's arm and pulled him up, then grabbing a nearby towel and used it to dry out Winwin.
"I'm sorry hyung, I was just thinking of something." The Chinese boy apologized for worrying his hyung.
"It's okay, just try to not do this again. The food that I prepared is cold already. Go now, wear some clothes and I will just heat up all the food." Taeyong left the other and went straight to the kitchen to reheat the food and their coffee. Winwin went and fixed himself, before going to the dining table. He sat there staring at Taeyong's back, who noticed the stare and asked him why.
"What is it Winwin? Do you need something?"
"Not really... I just can't wait to gobble up the food that you made! I can already smell how delicious it is, you're the best." Winwin had this gleam in his eyes while he was thinking of food. Taeyong chuckled at how cute Winwin is. He put the dishes in the table again after reheating them and they started to eat.
"Woah~ This is straight up from heaven." Winwin once again complimented the chef's incredible cooking skills.
The clock showed that it was already 11PM, meaning they should go to sleep already. Winwin volunteered to wash the dishes as payment while Taeyong took his turn in taking a bath. They finished their tasks and went to drink warm milk before saying goodnight to each other.
"Good night hyung~"
"Good night Winwin-ah." They went on their own rooms and proceeded to sleep.
Unfortunately, Winwin can't really sleep that time. He decided to go to the other's room and see if he's still awake.
He slowly opened the door leading to Taeyong's room, and saw him sleeping soundly. Disappointingly, he had to leave to not disturb his hyung. He was about to close the door when
"Winwin? You can't sleep?" Winwin entered the room again, seeing Taeyong with a blanket draped all over his body, only his eyes peeking at Winwin.
"Yeah" The boy muttered with a nod.
"Want to lie down next to me? It might help in making you sleep." He asked, patting the space next to him. Winwin giddily hopped going to his side of the bed and quickly lied down.
"Sweet dreams Taeyong hyung." He bid the other good night, though Taeyong was already asleep.
