Apartment 332 | [ VIXX ravi/ken/leo ]

⍟ 6

The tension in the apartment the next morning had never been higher. Both Jaehwan and Wonshik wanted to address the Taekwoon incident, but neither of them were really brave enough to bring it up again. 

"Sooooo.. I'm headed to work," Jaehwan mumbled as he walked by the couch, where Wonshik laid, staring at the ceiling. He always did that, he'd just lay on the couch, dreading the moment when his alarm would go off and he'd actually have to leave his cozy, woodsy-scented apartment. Jaehwan never really got that, he didn't know why exactly he did it, but whatever floated his boat, man.

"Hey, do me a favor?" Jaehwan stopped in his tracks, letting go of the door handle. "Uh, yeah? What do you need, Shikkie?"

Wonshik sat up, peeking over the edge of the couch. "Can you bring me coffee when you go on lunch break?" He asked with a slight pout, and Jaehwan just groaned. "Pleaaase? We're out, and I need caffeine!" He begged, shaking his hands.

Jaehwan giggled a bit, shaking his head. "Aish, okay. I'll bring you some. What kind?" 

The other male just shrugged. "Anything is fine. Surprise me~" Jaehwan flashed him a thumbs-up, before leaving the room, yelling out a goodbye.

He stood outside the door in silence after shutting it, just looking towards the shiny door that read '332'. Some part of him wondered if Wonshik was just playing head games with him. Did he know he had weird feelings for Taekwoon? Maybe he was just trying to get under his skin. 

He shook his head, trying to push the thought aside. He had to trust Wonshik wholeheartedly, that was his best friend, and he wouldn't do something like that. 

He headed down to his car, and went off to work, trying to stay positive. Hakyeon would probably listen to him vent about the whole situation, he was really good for that. Plus he gave great advice, Jaehwan really treasured him for that reason.

He turned his radio on as loud as it would go, trying to relax and let the cheery pop music mellow him out. Maybe a little too much, he zoned out at the red light for way longer than he should have, causing everyone who was behind him to honk their horns at him. Which just put him in that weird mood he was in before. 

He groaned a bit when he got to the café, noticing it was already unlocked and the lights were on. He was supposed to open today. He parked his car and got out, yelling out apologies the minute he opened the café door.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to be late, I was running behind this morning -" He babbled as he grabbed an apron, tying it on as he ran behind the counter and started cleaning up, only to notice his coworker had already gotten everything done.

"You're fine, Jaehwan.. you cover for me all the time, it's not a problem! Besides, I was the one who showed up early. Even if you were on time, I'd have been here before you. Just figured I'd get in ahead of time and clean up a bit. The guy working the closing shift never cleans up." Hakyeon said, offering Jaehwan a smile.

He just sighed, nodding as he started brewing himself a cup of coffee. "Thank you, Hakyeon.. I don't know what I'd do without you, honestly. You're a life saver." He sighed again as he watched hot coffee filter into the cup, shaking his head. "I'll try to show up on time tomorrow. I feel guilty now.."

Hakyeon shook his head, watching as Jaehwan put the cup of coffee on the counter, mixing in an excessive amount of chocolate flavoring. "Don't worry about it, honey.. You look really tired. Did you get enough sleep last night?"

"Yeah, I did. It's just been a busy morning!" Jaehwan laughed, Hakyeon scrunching his nose at the forced noise. 

"Are you sure you're okay, Jyani..?"
