Author's POV

Jongin rubbed his nose into Kyungsoo's hair, smiling when the familiar scent of vanilla and strawberries hit his nostrils. This scent was what he wanted to wake up to every morning, and fall asleep to every night. Kyungsoo was his drug, and Jongin was more than happy to be addicted to it.

"Good morning babe," Jongin whispered into Kyungsoo's hair when he felt the smaller stirring a little.

"Morning to you too," Kyungsoo answered and looked up, pushing himself up to peck Jongin's lips. "How are you feeling today?"

"Better, because my mind is cleared from all negative thoughts," Jongin said, "but I'm still a little worried."

"Stop worrying," Kyungsoo whined. "There's nothing to worry about, because I'm right here, and I always will be." Jongin smiled and leaned down, Kyungsoo meeting him half way and locking their lips together in a long kiss. A kiss that was innocent, but their hearts were also poured into the kiss: Their love for each other, not sugar coated with 'I think I like you,' but the real deal. Their true feelings for each other, but also their worries. Their worries about the dinner, and everything else in between.

What would Jongin's parents do if they found out his son was gay? What would they do if they found out that Kyungsoo isn't just a guy, but also isn't rich like Jongin's parents wanted Jongin's future lover to be? What would happen to Jongin and Kyungsoo then?

"Damn, you look much better today," Chanyeol complimented when Jongin walked into his office that day. "You no longer look like some ugly zombie who got pulled out of their grave when they were trying to sleep and then got bird poop over them that the wrong place and right time."

"Um... thanks?" It came out as a question, but with Chanyeol, you'd never know whether he was complimenting you or fucking insulting your brains. It was fine for Jongin, though, because this was the friend he grew up with, and he was comfortable with it.

"You're most certainly welcome," Chanyeol grinned. "So, I'm guessing you told Kyungsoo then, right?" Jongin nodded, grinning when Chanyeol leaned back and let out a huge sigh of relief. Chanyeol had been stressing out about that all night.

"I've been wondering," Jongin spoke, "what have you been doing with Baekhyun?"

Chanyeol sat up in his seat and stared at Jongin who was rummaging through his bag like he didn't just ask Chanyeol a mind blowing question, because in Jongin's point of view, it wasn't really all that mind blowing. It was just a simple question because have you seen the way Chanyeol looked at Baekhyun? It was as if Baekhyun were a fallen angel that fell right by Chanyeol's feet.

"I-I haven't r-really been doing anything ," Chanyeol stuttered, hiding his flushed face to avoid any sort of teasing.

"Chanyeol, don't give me that shit," Jongin growled and Chanyeol hid his face in his hands even more. "Come on, how hard is it to just ask him out? Just be like 'Hey Baekhyun, want to date me?' It's not that hard man!"

"Maybe to you it's not because you've been picking up chicks from the side of the road, but for me, this will be the first person I've ever dated in my life. What if Baekhyun isn't even gay? Then what am I supposed to do?"

Jongin sighed and turned his computer on, waiting for the device to light up before turning back to Chanyeol. "Look, stop being a girl and man up. Guys with dicks don't cower."

Chanyeol turned bright red, from embarrassment and from annoyance for being called a coward, but he kind of deserved it.
