The two walked on the sidewalk together, their hotel building shrinking behind them as they walked farther. The two kept their eyes peeled, not wanting to walk pass the man they were searching for. Today was quiet and calm, and the air felt refreshing on their bare faces. They knew it would be hard to find Jun, the city was so big. The whole damn country itself was huge. Would it be easier to stalk and track Jun down? See, the idea seems creepy, right? But nothing was said on their little search, they just continued to silently look for Minghao's "dream guy". The thing is, Vernon didn't want Minghao to focus his attention on someone else. Vernon is Minghao's best friend, so it's normal to feel jealous, right? But Vernon never brought up his true feelings. All he did was put on a happy and excited face so he wouldn't make Minghao feel bad.
Minghao yawned. "Vernon, I don't think we're going to find him." The brown haired boy turned his head towards his friend and shrugged. "I'm tired." Minghao whined. But Vernon didn't reply, he kept on walking and searching. "Are you even listening, sh-" Minghao was cut off by Vernon almost smacking him in the face with his arm.
"Stop. Is that...is that Jun?" Vernon said in genuine disbelief. The two boys were certain that they wouldn't find Jun on the first week of arriving, let alone the first day they came! The boy of Minghao's dreams entered a small clothing shop that had a sign that roughly translated to 'second hand shop'. Minghao grabbed onto Vernon's arm and they raced across the street and onto the other side where the thrift shop sat.
The shop was almost shaped like a long box and was made out of bricks. The roof was painted brown and the door would always creak when you opened it. The boys ran closer to the shop and once they reached the door they stopped and took a breather. Minghao felt so scared. His heart pounded with excitement and anxiousness. He was about to meet the boy he fell in love with, but does he actually like Minghao back? He was about it find out because just as Minghao was reaching for the door it screeeeeeched opened, and out came Jun.
"Ah, sorry sir." Jun looked up and realized just who that sir was. "M...Minghao?" He froze in shock, not knowing what he should do. Should he run? Should he stay? Curse at him? Speak politely? There were so many opinions to choose from. "What are you doing here?" His voice slightly cracked from all the shock, he honestly forgot how to speak.
"I came to see you." Minghao slightly smiled. "I just...I don't know...I missed you." Jun dropped his two bags full of clothes he probably didn't need and hugged Minghao. He hugged Minghao because he cared about him...because he loved him. Minghao hugged back, trying to make the moment last forever. But poor Vernon, he was the third wheel. He stood there awkwardly, waiting for the hug to be done. And once it ended he clapped, pretending once again to be happy. See, at first Vernon was genuinely happy for Minghao. Because it was nothing but a small little crush and it was cute. But Vernon didn't want to ruin the moment so he said nothing. All he did was clap and smile, and nothing else.
"Hi, I'm Vernon...or you can call me Hansol. Either one works. I'm Ming's best friend." He smiled. It hurt.
"Ming...hmmm..I like that, I think I'll be using it for him now." Jun flashed a smile at Minghao and he lightly blushed. Vernon clenched his fist but soon relaxed, realizing he shouldn't get worked up.
They all walked back to the hotel, Vernon barely spoke. Once they arrived at the front door, they knew this is where the journey had to end. Minghao and Jun hugged, it was sweet and loving. Then they both pulled away, but Minghao felt it wasn't enough. He crashed his lips into Jun's and kissed him because he loved him so much. Jun kissed back because he loved him so much. The two loved each other so much. And all Vernon did was stand there. Actually, no, he couldn't even watch. He walked into the hotel and didn't turn back. The two kept on kissing, not wanting the moment to end. But all good things have to end, and they finally pulled away and said their goodbyes. Minghao walked into the hotel, and Jun walked in the direction of his house. Even though the two were still so far away, they loved each other. And that love will never fade away.END.
