"you think he's cute, just admit it!" yuta exclaims, earning a glare from lucas who was tying up his cleats.

an exasperated sigh leaves the youngers mouth as he stands up, everyone's been bugging him about jungwoo, even johnny and taeyong who don't even share the same lunch period as they do (courtesy of kun who spilled everything to taeyong).

"yeah sure, i think he's cute hyung, that's it."

"that's the first step of liking someone," yuta points out as they walk out of the school, and onto the field.

"i'm not going to end up liking him, he's not my type. maybe yours, but not mine," lucas mutters.

was that a lie? most likely. does yuta need to know that? no.

"a little birdy told me that lucas thinks you're cute," doyoung sings as they walk into the coffee shop that they regularly go to and also where their friend, taeil, works.

jungwoo feels his cheeks warm up, "oh.." 

doyoung lets out a laugh, "ah jungwooie, are you going to tell hyung?"

"i'd be surprised if he doesn't already know," jungwoo mumbles as they enter the line.

the two order and go sit in their regular spot, a circle three-seater table, the third seat for taeil if he ever has time to sit.

"i have a question," doyoung says, and jungwoo hums as if to tell him to ask it.

"if lucas were to ask you out, would you say yes?"

jungwoo shrugs, starting to shy up a bit, "i don't know, why?"

"just curious. just know that any boyfriend you have i will rip their precious jewels off their body if they hurt you," dooyoung says casually.

jungwoo's eyes widen, "hyung... seriously?"

doyoung nods. 

"i would too," taeil voices as he sits in the empty chair and places the two's orders in front of them.

"thank you hyung," jungwoo and doyoung both say.

"how was school?" taeil asks, the question directed toward the both of them.

"it was okay. i found out i have a math test next week," jungwoo pouted.

"i'm sure you'll do fine, woo, i can help you study if you need it," taeil smiles.
