❝chamomile tea❞ tenkun

end, our happily ever after

Pouring hot water onto the tea packet, ten couldn't help but smile widely. He often got stares from the younger members for such odd behaviour, but he didn't mind. If that meant finally telling kun how he feels, he might as well risk being teased by hendery and xiaojun until the end of time.

Your tears are made from milk

Your singing voice as soft as silk

Kun sat near the window, looking out at the rain. Ten saw it as the most perfect chance to cut off the blooming silence.

Ill show you the magic of silent love

Just like you do tricks with your cards

The truth was, ten had read kun's letters. One night when he was sleeping in kun's bed he felt some papers under the pillow, and from curiosity he decided to see what they were; which was probably the best decision he had ever made, because now he felt as if he was able to do anything, since now he could be sure that kun loved him too.

I can imagine my whole life with you

The courage and willingness the letters gave him was unreal, but at the same time it was probably fate. They were meant to have their happy ending.

Rain drops fell onto leaves, making them faintly bounce. The light from behind the clouds glowed through the window into the dark room, being the only source of light.

The creamy clouds adorned in the air

Floating above us

Kun was wrapped into a blanket, watching how the water spilled like tiny drops of glitter.

Can we dance under the rain?

He loved how green everything was. It reminded him all the times he and ten danced in the rain. He can visualize each time ten would twirl him around as well as how big the other would smile.

Let our silhouettes be coloured blue

Just like the sun would be seen on mars

Then ten would tease kun, saying how he's like a little girl, made of sugar, spice and every thing nice. But would that make ten a little boy- made of snips and snails, and puppy dog tails?

Faint steps could be heard coming towards Kun's direction, making the older turn his head to the person.

❝I got you tea.❞

❝Thank you.❞

Awkwardness lingered in the air. But the truth was hidden in ten's mind.

He wanted to make a move. He had to tell the other how he felt. Ten wanted them to be together.

Seeing how kun's lips curved when he took a sip from the mug encouraged him, but it felt a little too soon to go and kiss the other, and talking would just make things more awkward.

Although from kun's letters he could tell that the older wouldn't mind the kisses, he wanted it as much as ten did.

So all ten could do was risk it. He'll kiss kun softly, so that the other can push him off if he didn't like it.

And when kun parted the mug from his lips, ten replaced it with his own lips, tasting the chamomile tea. From shock kun let go of the mug, making it fall on the floor and spill the warm drink, but none of them cared about that.

Ten took a hold of Kun's face, making the older smile into the kiss.

Kun felt ecstatic, he was in pure bliss. He put his one hand on top of ten's, trying to hold it, and ten let him, interlocking their fingers.

The tears made of milk spilt down the white haired's eyes, he was just so happy. His heart jumped in the rib cage from the love he was given.

As one of the tears touched ten's fingers, he pulled away, looking at the other with worry.

❝kun?❞

❝im just so happy,❞ He smiled a smile so bright ten was sure it was an Angel's.

❝i love you,❞ With those three simple words ten kissed away Kun's tears, making the older laugh at such a sappy move.

But nonetheless ten pulled kun into his embrace, having the older rest his head under ten's chin and arms wrapped around the younger’s waist. 

They both enjoyed the view outside, as it rained it got darker and darker, the barely noticeable light illuminating inside the room.

❝i read your letters,❞ ten started, needing to say more, having to explain.

Kun hid his head in the blanket, feeling quite embarrassed, but it made sense. All the things ten had recently done were things kun wrote about; things he wanted the other to do.

❝but it's good that it happened, otherwise we would still be like middle school kids around their crushes.❞

❝yeah, but it's embarrassing... I wrote a lot of personal things there.❞

❝hmm, ❞ Ten kissed the crown of Kun's head and rocked the both of them back and forth.

They shared the evening of rain, cuddling in blankets and the sounds of steady breaths.

The tea spilt on the floor, long forgotten.

❝我爱你， 锟哥❞
