Tin walked around his apartment unit with only his pajama on, looking through the photos arranged nicely on the wall and table in the living room. The many pictures only had one subject in it, a beautiful boy in any kind of poses and expressions, whether looking at the camera or somewhere else. Tin smiled as his eyes scanned through the frames, making his tired and swollen eyes come to life even only for a bit. One particular picture that was hanging on the wall caught his attention, making him smile even wider. It was the only one that showed two boys, standing very close to each other.
"Tin, stop taking pictures of me! The living room is already full with my pictures. And you already have 10 photo albums of me. Don't you get tired of it?" A shorter boy said as he shook his head in disbelief, even though a smile was plastered on his face. The one he was talking to put the camera down after taking yet another shot of the smiling boy in front of him.
"I will never get tired of it, Cantaloupe. I plan to have the whole house filled with your photos and have hundreds of albums of you." Tin smiled. He found a new hobby when he finally started dating Can 3 years back: photography. And the only subject he loved to capture was Can, his beloved.
"Tin, you sound like a freak, you know?"
Tin only chuckled. "I know. But I am your freak."
Can made a disgusted expression, and pretended to puke, before he walked toward the taller boy to close the distance. "Cheesy bastard."
His remark only made Tin laugh softly, and Can swiftly took the camera from Tin's hands, earning him a curious look from his boyfriend.
"Let's take a picture together. Then we'll hang it on the wall in the living room. Make it the biggest one." Can suggested, before returning the camera to Tin, instructing him to set the camera on the tripod he was carrying.
Tin liked the idea. Even though they had lots of pictures together, Tin never bothered to print any. The only printed photo of them together -- Can printed it -- was on a small frame placed on the bedside table in their room. Even in Tin's wallet, there were only Can's pictures.
Yes, he loved his boyfriend that much, he turned to a freak for him. He wanted to fill the apartment with Can's pictures and have his own photo collection of the shorter guy. That way, he would always feel the other's presence every time he wasn't with him and wouldn't feel alone in the house.
"Hurry up, come here!" Can called for Tin as he was already standing in the middle of the street, claiming his spot. Tin smiled as he pressed the shutter then ran toward the other. He pulled Can closer by his waist, earning no protest from the other as he only smiled widely to the camera.
"Neung...song...sam..." and Tin turned his head to press a kiss on Can's cheek, catching the boy off guard.
Tin smiled upon remembering the beautiful memory he shared with his beautiful boy. It was their last vacation together to Japan, with Cherry Blossoms blooming along the way. But even the Cherry Blossoms couldn't really beat the beauty of his Cantaloupe. None could beat his beauty. Never.
