"i need some space," jae told his parents as soon as he found another college student who was willing to let him live with him for half the rent. "i'm moving out."

what he didn't expect to see were space posters plastered all over his new flatmate's walls.

as soon as he entered the apartment, jae's jaw dropped in dual disbelief and amazement. he turned to his new living partner, who seemed like a perfectly normal person at first glance. the younger looked up at him with a huge smile balanced on his face; jae then started to wonder if it really was as bright as the sun or if his mind was just playing tricks on him.

"welcome to your new home!" his dongsaeng chortled. "here, take a seat."

"thanks! you must really love space a lot..." jae told his flat mate, sitting down on the couch and setting his suitcase beside his feet.

"what makes you say that? i absolutely hate it." upon receiving a look of disbelief from jae and a gesture towards the posters covering the walls, wonpil shook his head and plopped down beside jae. the blonde had used the wrong word for space in korean, thereby confusing wonpil. "oh, maybe you meant outer space? yeah, i do." then he slid closer to jae and pressed into his side, cuddling into the older boy. "but in terms of physical space, i really do hate it."
