"Two iced americanos for Younghyun!" One of the baristas called. Jae started to stand up, but Younghyun quickly spoke out.
"You sit here, I'll go get our drinks." Younghyun smiled. He walked over to the pick-up line and grabbed their drinks and two straws before returning to the table in the corner. Jae smiled softly at the other as Younghyun sat his drink in front of him.
"Thank you." Jae said. He stuck his straw in the lid and sipped from it.
"How is it?"
"It's really good." Jae smiled. "I can't believe I've never tried this."
"I can't either, I basically live off of these." Younghyun said.
"Wow, how lame"
"Me? Lame? You're joking right?" Younghyun exclaimed, causing Jae to laugh. The younger smiled at Jae, now deciding that his laugh was his new favorite thing.
"So after this, where do you want to go?" Younghyun asked after a small period of silence.
"Do you really think I remember my way around this place?" Jae said, "I don't even think I remember where your house is from here."
"I meant, do you have any ideas? Like do you know of any places you want to see?"
"Not that I can think of. As I said, I have no memory of this place."
"Okay, then what about a movie or something?"
"I thought you were showing me around, not taking me out on a date." Jae laughed.
"Maybe I'm trying for both." Younghyun have the older a smug look before sipping on his coffee. Jae blushed before doing the same.
"Actually, I think I have a plan for the day!" Younghyun stated.
"And that is?" Jae asked.
"Can't say, it's a surprise." The younger said, "But I think you'll like it."
Jae looked at the other weirdly before smiling and shaking his head. "You're something else."
Shortly after, the two grabbed their half empty coffee cups and went back into Younghyun's car. The younger opened the door for Jae again, making him smile and thank him before getting into the car. Younghyun walked to the other side and got in as well before starting the car.
"Can you tell me where you're taking me now?" Jae asked, smiling at the other. Younghyun grinned before replying.
"I don't know, can I?" He laughed.
Jae smiled and sighed. "You're such a dad, please stop."
"A dad?" The other questioned before winking at Jae.
"Oh my god, no! I didn't mean it like that! I meant— agh." Jae's face turned bright red as he covered his face with his hands. Younghyun laughed at the older before sliding his hand on his thigh and giving it a light squeeze.
Jae felt his face burning and his heart fluttering as the younger held his hand on his thigh. He slowly slid his hand down to Younghyun's and held it. He didn't know what had come over him to be this bold, but he felt like it was necessary. Younghyun smiled sweetly at the other as he continued driving.
"Oh, by the way, do you know Jinyoung, Mark, and Jackson?" Younghyun asked, clearing the silence between them.
"Me, Jackson, Mark, Jinyoung, and Wonpil were best friends in high school, so hell yeah." Jae said.
"Good, because they're coming over later." Younghyun said calmly. Jae gasped so loud that Younghyun thought he was about to pass out.
"No way!" Jae exclaimed. "I haven't seen all of them in a long time!"
Younghyun grinned at the older. "A few of mine, Sungjin, and Dowoon's friends are gonna tag along too, is that okay?"
"Of course!" Jae said. The younger smiled again as Jae played with Younghyun's fingers as he continued to drive.
"Okay Jae, I need you to close your eyes and keep them closed for a second." Younghyun randomly said.
"Um, why exactly?" The older questioned
"I want where we're going to be a surprise." He smiled.
Jae laughed before closing his eyes and putting a hand over them. Younghyun laughed as well before driving a bit down the road and pulling over.
"We're here, but keep your eyes closed for another second!" Younghyun said before getting out of the car and opening Jae's door. He lead the older out of the car and walked him forward a few steps.
"Okay, now open your eyes!" Jae removed his hand and opened his eyes, taking a few seconds to adjust them.
"Woah..." He breathed out. "It's beautiful."
Younghyun had taken him to the Han River, which he had never seen before. He remembered very little about Korea, but he knew he had never seen the river before.
"Right? I thought you'd like it. It's especially pretty in the morning or when the sun's setting." Younghyun said. "I used to come here with Sungjin and Dowoon a lot, not sure why we stopped though." Jae nodded as the younger spoke.
"My friend Bambam just texted me and told me he's on the way to my house, so I guess we should get going." Younghyun spoke up after a few minutes of talking. Jae nodded and headed back to the car before the two drove off.
