"hyung, can i have your number?" chani flopped onto his bed before rolling over, putting his face in his hands.

"why?" hwiyoung looked at him weirdly, making himself comfortable on a pile of beanbags.

"i wanna keep in touch with hyung." the younger pouted, looking away.

"i just asked why, cutie. i didn't say no." hwiyoung smiled slightly at chani's little pouty face while throwing his phone over.

chani let out a wide grin, kicking his feet in the air as he quickly punched in his number. he then sent himself a message.

hwiyoung took the time to check chani out.

his bunny smile, his adorable round eyes, his small baby-like hands. everything about him is perfect and cute.

but he's afraid. afraid of hurting that cute little carrot and hurting himself.

"thanks hyung." he passed the phone back.

hwiyoung looked at the contact name.

"chanhee? your name's chanhee? i've been calling you chani."

"well... only my close hyungs call me chani."

hwiyoung eyed the younger.

"yes, it means hwiyoung hyung is my close hyung. hwiyoung hyung is also my favorite hyung!" chani declared with a huge smile.

"my status is higher than youngbin hyung?" hwiyoung smirked, joining chani on his bed.

"don't cross your line, hyung."

at least he tried to ask.

-

hwiyoung was at chani's balcony on the second floor. it overlooked the huge swimming pool in the front yard and the park right across it.

he decided to stay the night again at chani's, not really wanting to go home and deal with shitty hell. he took out his last cigarette and threw the empty packet off the balcony.

if he's being asked he's just gonna tell youngbin that it was from the party.

taking out his lighter, he lit up his cigar and enjoyed his little 'high' time alone.

as he took the last puff of his cigar, chani walked out next to him, not noticing the cigar. when hwiyoung blew out all the smoke, it took the younger by surprise and made him cough really badly.

the older of the two threw the cigar butt off the balcony, again, and turn to the younger.

"hey, you okay? sorry, i didn't know you have a sensitive nose." hwiyoung's breath reek of smoke and chani continued to cough, waving the older away.

after a fit of coughing, chani shakily drank some water that hwiyoung gave him.

"let's talk." hwiyoung suggested.

-

"so... you like boys?" hwiyoung asked hesitantly.

chani nodded, his cheeks red with embarrassment. they were talking about the party and chani accidentally leaked out some classified information.

"it's not a bad thing, okay. i like boys too." hwiyoung tried lighten the situation.

"i guess... that's not the problem though-" his own eyes went wide at what he said.

"then what is? hm?" hwiyoung caught his reaction and smirked, taking the glass out of his hands and placing it on chani's study table.

"nothing, nothing. hyung, it's nothing i fuckin swear!" the way hwiyoung looked at him is giving him goosebumps.

"it's not nothing, i can tell. your ears are on fire." the older continued to demand an answer and the younger kept shuffling back.

"hyung, stop." chani was soon pinned up against the headrest of his bed, hwiyoung towering over him like a predator over its prey.

"nah, i ain't stopping till you tell me who this lucky guy is. i'm a vault when it comes to keeping secrets." hwiyoung kept the eye contact.

oh yeah totally, how are you gonna keep it a secret when it's you that i really like.

"but its you..." chani mumbled. hwiyoung wasn't able to fully hear what he said but he caught something.

"me?"

chani's eyes widen in shock.

"you like me?" hwiyoung pointed to himself before laughing.

"nice try, chani but seriously, who's that lucky guy?" hwiyoung prayed the holy heavens up above its not him.

chani's just joking, right?

however, the way chani eyes glisten with tears, it was certain he was telling the truth.

"chani, i-"

well shit, hwiyoung fucked up big time.

chani shook his head furiously.

"no, its fine. what was i expecting? i understand." he furiously wiped his streaming tears with his sleeves as he softly nudged hwiyoung towards the bedroom door.

"no, stop. chani-" chani's feelings are everywhere at this point. one part of him just wants to push hwiyoung far away and forget everything that has happened while another wants to let hwiyoung talk.

at that moment, youngbin just have to open the bedroom door to check on them.

"what's the commotion?" he didn't get a reply but instead got pushed out along with hwiyoung.

the door slammed in their faces.

"chani, please let me explain." hwiyoung knocked softly on the door.

"please leave me alone." a muffled reply was heard.

"kim fuckin hwiyoung." youngbin's voice rumbled.

"okay, you let me explain first before you start to nag at me." hwiyoung grabbed youngbin's hand and dragged him downstairs.
