Zhang Yixing was a boring person. He wasn't particularly special. He didn't have any amazing talents or abilities he was just ordinary. He owned a small yet successful cafe called MYM with his best friend Baekhyun and he was happy with it but he still felt like something was missing.

He somewhat envied Baekhyun as he had someone to love. Baekhyun and his boyfriend Park Chanyeol had been together ever since Yixing met them in their sophomore year of high school and as much as he loved them and was happy for their relationship Yixing was always jealous that he never had something like that.

He and Baekhyun were getting ready to close up shop, sweeping the floor and cleaning the tables, when he heard the entrance to the cafe open with a jingle of a bell. Yixing wasn't really in the mood to serve another customer as it had been an exceptionally busy day but he put on a smile and turned around.
"Hello welcome to MYM wha-." He stopped mid sentence when he saw the customer.

The man was gorgeous, there wasn't a better way to describe him. He had milky white skin, chocolate brown eyes, and dark brown hair. He was a bit shorter than Yixing but he seemed to be well built as his chiseled biceps and chest could be seen through his tight navy blue t-shirt. Yixing stared for a few seconds until he finally looked away his face red as a cherry.
"Um h-hello would you like something sir?" Yixing said nervously.
"Yes, I would like a latte and a croissant to go please. I heard great things about MYM they say it has the best coffee and pastries in the city." the customer replied.
"I'll get that for you right away!" Yixing said a little too excitedly as he ran behind the counter to prepare the beautiful man's order.

After a couple of minutes Yixing called the man over to the counter to give him his food and drink.
"That will be $6.00 please." he said in a rushed tone. The man gave Yixing a ten dollar bill and took a quick sip of his latte.
"It's delicious! Keep the change, I will be coming back for sure!" the man said with a bright smile on his face.
"T-thank you so much! I can't wait to see you here again!"

Ah Stupid Yixing! Why did you say that?

"Likewise!" the man said as he turned away and walked out of the cafe, gracefully pushing the door open with his shoulder and stepping outside into the warm summer evening.

Yixing had never seen someone so beautiful before. His heart was pounding in his chest and his face was still flushed red. He had a huge smile on his face, his dimple on his right cheek seemingly becoming deeper than the ocean the longer he smiled. Yixing was in a daze, his mind flooded with the glimmering image of the man's gorgeous face.

"Hey! Earth to Yixing!" a high pitched male voice yelled.

Oh... yeah... Baekhyun's here.

"Sorry Baek I was lost in thought" Yixing said hurriedly.
Baekhyun chuckled, "You mean lost in that pretty customers eyes? I saw the way you looked at him, you were stunned! If only you could see the look on your face!"
"W-whatever." Yixing mumbled blushing even more furiously, "He was just really handsome that's all. I was surprised."
"Sure sure." Baekhyun said smugly, "I bet you're dying for him to come back again!"
"Shut up Baek!" Yixing yelled in a high pitched voice, "Come on let's just close the cafe." Baekhyun just laughed at Yixing as he picked up a broom and resumed sweeping the floor.

Soon the cafe was closed and Yixing and Baekhyun went their separate ways. Baekhyun was picked up by Chanyeol as always while Yixing drove back to his humble apartment alone. When Yixing entered his apartment he immediately took off his shoes and black fitted t-shirt, letting his skin breathe. He looked at himself in a large mirror he had in his living room examining and ridiculing his own body.

He was a decent height around five foot ten, definitely taller than the tiny Baekhyun but no where near the height of his huge boyfriend Chanyeol. He thought of himself as rather skinny although he had defined abs, chest, and biceps. He then looked at his face, rather sharp jawline, a deep dimple when he smiled, bright brown almond shaped eyes, and a nose he thought was a bit to big. He shook his head and walked to his bedroom, throwing off his tight black skinny jeans before plopping onto the unkept bed.

"That man was gorgeous." he said out loud, "He wouldn't find someone as average as me attractive." Yixing let out a huff and pulled the purple blanket on his bed over his mostly naked body. He closed his eyes and slowly drifted off into sleep, the image of the beautiful man's smile gracing his dreams through the night.




A/N: Hello! This is my first ever chapter to my first ever fanfic and I hope whoever reads this likes it! I have written short stories before but never published them so I don't know how people will react to my writing. I apologize if this chapter was a bit short but it's more of an introduction to the story and it's main characters. I will take any constructive criticism and try to make my writing better! The words in italics are Yixing's thoughts just in case I didn't make it clear enough. I don't want anyone to be confused so I will explain any weird text if it appears. I will update the story as frequently as I can but I don't have a clear path on where it will go so please bear with me. Okay! I'm sorry if I rambled on a bit but I'm just very excited to finally be writing a fanfic of my own! Thank you to anyone who reads this and I hope that you will continue reading my work as it continues!
Sincerely,
Aiyo-Wei
