Yunho pulled up to the pizza place and parked his car. He sighed deeply. He hopes he doesn't do anything embarrassing again, like fall on top of Mingi. He's more nervous now than he was the first day the two hung out. Mingi called this a date, which made Yunho's heart skip a beat. His palms are a bit sweaty as he unbuckles his seatbelt. He locked his car and made his way into the pizza place, taking deep breaths to calm his nerves a bit more.

Yunho looked around for a moment before spotting the handsome boy at a table in the corner. Mingi did not notice his date come in. He is on his phone, checking out the activity on his Instagram. He's gained a lot of followers recently, likely due to the popularity of the song he released last week. He's currently replying to comments about the song. Most of the comments are good, which makes him very happy. Music is his passion, and he loves it when other people rave about his creations.

"Hey," Yunho spoke up as he approached the table.

Mingi looked up from his phone and smiled at the friendly giant. Both boys are kind of giants, but Mingi is a bit thinner. Yunho took a seat in front of Mingi, and the younger flashed him a cheeky smile.

"Hello handsome," Mingi greeted, sliding his phone back into his pocket.

Yunho is wearing a slightly oversized sweater with jeans. Such a simple look, yet he looks flawless to Mingi. Yunho's cheeks turned a bit pink at Mingi's sudden compliment, and he swiftly picked up a menu to hide behind.

"Did you order already?" Yunho asked, trying to distract from his obvious nervousness.

"No," Mingi replied, "I've been waiting for you."

"Well, what are you getting?" Yunho asked, still looking through the menu.

"I'm probably just going to get two pepperoni slices."

Yunho pursed his lips and thought for a moment. Meanwhile, Mingi took in the boy's thinking face. He couldn't stop smiling at Yunho, so he stared at the table between them to make it less obvious. Little did Mingi realize, Yunho noticed. Yunho closed his menu and placed it on the table.

"I'll get the same thing," he said, "How hungry are you?"

"Uhh," Mingi thought for a moment, "I'm pretty hungry. I didn't eat much today, actually."

"Okay, let's just share a whole pie then. I'm starving," Yunho said.

Mingi nodded and smiled. Yunho got up and headed over to the counter to order for the pair. Mingi watched as Yunho and the employee spoke, not hearing a word they were saying. Yunho laughed at something the guy said, and all Mingi could do was admire Yunho's beautiful smile. Mingi hopes things go well today. He's not planning on trying anything, but he wants Yunho to be more comfortable around him. Since Yunho has been very cold on Instagram lately, Mingi wants to make sure they are on good terms.

A boy with hazelnut hair stood behind Yunho and waited to order. Mingi thinks he resembles Yunho a little bit, except he's much shorter. The boy turned around and asked a question to his friend, who was sitting at a table nearby. Mingi recognizes the friend sitting at the table as San, Yunho's friend. He remembers meeting him the first time he hung out with Yunho. Mingi waited until the two made eye contact and then he waved to San. San waved back with a friendly smile, but then a look of panic reached his face. Mingi wonders why his mood changed so quickly.

San gulped. At first, he was happy to see a familiar face, but once he realized it was Mingi, his mood changed. San knows this cannot be good because of the friend he brought to the pizza place with him. Yunho finished ordering and turned around to go back to the table, when he bumped into the guy waiting in line behind him.

"Jongho?!" Yunho exclaimed, shocked to see his friend.

"Heyy!" Jongho smiled, "What's up you freakish giant?"

"Oh, just getting some pizza," Yunho replied.

"No way, me too!"

"It is a pizzeria, after all."

Yunho laughed nervously. He hopes Jongho hasn't looked behind him yet, because if he does, he'll see Mingi. Yunho knows this can only be bad news. Jongho would surely cause a whole scene if he met Mingi all of a sudden. San, who was watching this interaction, got up and approached the two.

"Hey, Yunho! How's it going?" San asked.

San is trying just as hard as Yunho to make Jongho not notice Mingi. So far, Jongho is oblivious.

"It's going good," Yunho replied.

"Ya, why don't you come sit at our table? We can eat together," Jongho offered.

"Oh... um, actually I can't," Yunho began.

Yunho paused, trying to think of a possible excuse. He can't just sit down with them, because Mingi would be confused. He also wants to make sure that Jongho and Mingi do NOT meet, for obvious reasons.

"Oh yeah! You have that thing!" San exclaimed trying to help Yunho come up with an excuse.

"Oh yeah, the thing!" Yunho exclaimed.

Jongho has no idea what the hell is going on right now. He wonders why San and Yunho are acting all weird, but it doesn't phase him much. To him, all his friends are weird, and that's what he likes about them most.

"Whatever weirdo," Jongho said.

Jongho started walking back to his table, much to Yunho and San's relief.

"What should I do now?" Yunho whispered to San.

"Leave? I don't know dude, good luck," San whispered back.

He gave Yunho a quick pat on the shoulder before following Jongho to their table. Jongho is sitting with his back to Yunho, so for the moment everything is fine.

"You guys good?" a deep voice directly behind Yunho asked.

Yunho turned around to see Mingi standing there. Yunho suddenly feels guilty for leaving him alone at the table for so long.

"Sorry about that," Yunho said, rubbing the back of his neck, "Yeah, we're all good."

"Really?" Mingi asked curiously, "Because San looked a little tense after he saw me..."

"Don't worry about that. San is just... weird sometimes.."

"Oh, and who's that other guy? The one at the table with San? Is he your friend too?"

"Yeah, he is my friend too. His name is Jongho."

Mingi glanced at the table the boys were at, and then back at Yunho. He really wants Yunho to be more comfortable around him, so he gets a brilliant idea.

"Why don't you have them come eat with us?" Mingi offered.

"OH NO- I mean... No, that's okay. You don't have to invite them with us."

"I really don't mind it! C'mon, they're your friends!"

"Mingi, I really don't think that's a goo-"

"Hey! San and Jongho, you guys should come eat with us!"

Yunho watched as Mingi gestured for the two to come with his hand. He slowly turned around, hoping that they did not hear Mingi's invitation. Sadly, they did. San's eyes were wide open and he just started at Mingi. Jongho turned around, looking confused at first, and then his jaw dropped.

Yunho gulped.
