Jellybean || Verkwan

-park-

Vernon stood frozen behind the counter watching as Seungkwan walks in the store smiling. Why do I feel like this? "Hello" Vernon said stuttering a bit. Seungkwan gives him a smirky smile while he walks to the drink aisle. Suddenly he pauses and remembers why he came to the store at the first place. Fuck. The lube. Seungkwans cheeks turn red as he hides between the aisles. He starts picking up all kinds of things that he really didn't need. He also grabs a fistful of tiny bags of jellybeans. Lastly he walks closer to the counter and squats down looking at condoms and all kinds of lube bottles. He is almost facing Vernon. He grabs a bottle of lube from the rack. He then puts all of the items to the register, regretting all of his life choices.

Vernon softly smiles to the boy and starts ringing his items. He picks up the lube bottle and he blushes a bit and puts it down quickly. Oh he has a boyfriend. Seungkwans whole face is a bright shade of red at this point. He wants to run out of the store quickly, but something makes him stay. Again he sits down to the tables and soon walks to the coffee machine. The atmosphere is thick and anxious.

I need to say something.

"Do you study somewhere?" Seungkwan asks with a curious smile on his face. "No... I just work here for now." Vernon says over the counter bit embarrassed about his situation. He's probably studying in a great school somewhere. "What about you?" "I'm actually pretty lost too. I'm a song writer and it's not going that well." Seungkwan answers worry free sipping his americano. Seungkwan is trying to act cool and professional when in fact he is nervous sweating and crying inside. "It's so hard to succeed in Seoul.. it's almost impossible when there's thousands of competitors." "Yeah.. My dancing is not all that good to compete with all of these idols and professionals." "No actually you are amazing. I saw you dancing when I first came here few days ago. You should really give it a shot."
Vernon hides his face in his hands smiling and almost laughing. His stomach is full of butterflies. Something about Seungkwans approach and his sassyness makes Vernon act like a completely different person. If he had met Seungkwan in high school he would already be in his pants. He could do it if he wants to, but something about him makes him just want to admire him from far away. You can look but not touch.

Vernon looks at the clock it was 9.30pm which meant that he should be closing the store by now.
Argh Why did he come so late? I don't want him to leave though.
" I need to close up the store. Do you want to go to the park for a walk? I don't feel like going to home yet and you could help me close up the store." Seungkwans eyes lit up from excitement. "Yes lets go!"

Soon the two boys walk out of the store. Vernon walks out and holds the door for Seungkwan who came out right behind him. "Thank you gentleman" Seungkwan giggles smiling at Vernon who gives him a sweet little smile. They walk down the dark street for a minute or two having a light conversation until Seungkwan silently whines about how much his bag weighs. "Oh do you want me to hold it?" Vernon reaches towards the bag. "No you don't have to! We can drop it into my car. It's right around the corner."

After dropping Seungkwan "groceries" to his car they both walk to the near by park. They sat down on the bench. Seungkwan never does things like this but he left his house today to do something risky and different. He doesn't know anything about the boy that is now sitting next to him. He could be a rapist or a murderer, but right now that doesn't matter to Seungkwan.
"Do you live near here?" Vernon asks curiously. "No. I actually live pretty far away." Seungkwan says leaning back and looking at the stars in the black night sky. "Why did you drive all the way here to buy a bottle of lube and jellybeans?" Vernon smirks looking down at the boy next to him. Seungkwan blushes and sinks in to the bench even more. "Oh I see..." Vernon says smiling to himself secretly seeing Seungkwans blushing face.

"No actually I have real things to take care of here." Seungkwan gives an excuse. On Wednesday's... it's Friday.

Vernon and Seungkwan continue talking for 10 or so minutes before getting up and walking towards Seungkwans car. They were joking around and they felt like they could talk for hours on end.
"It was pleasure talking to you Seungkwan." Vernon says smiling to the other boy. "See you later Vernon. Seungkwan smirks and hops in his car and drives away.

Seungkwan arrives home and meets an angry quiet Jihoon in the living room. "Where were you?" I've been so worried. Jihoon says swallowing his tears. "Sorry I was just with someone and my phone died." This was not the first time Seungkwan had disappeared for few hours. This also happened six months ago. Seungkwan left home in a bad state of mind with bad intentions and few hours later Jihoon and Soonyoung had to come pick him up from the hospital due to a drug overdose. "I'm so sorry Jihoon, I didn't think you would be so worried." Seungkwan says while rushing to the couch sitting next to Jihoon.
"Please just... stay safe Seungkwan." Jihoon says looking at his feet.
Seungkwan grabs something from his pocket and slides it under Jihoons eyes. "I remembered your lube." Seungkwan tries to hug Jihoon but the other boy pushes him away "I thought you were worried!!!". Seungkwan pouts giggling. Jihoon gets up. "Still don't like hugs." Jihoon smiles at the younger. "Oh and thanks for this, Now we don't have to use our saliva. Jihoon says smirking. "You guys are gross."
