Jacob and Kevin had eventually got distracted from studying. However, they did finish the homework assignment. Even though, Jacob had the idea of getting snacks for Kevin he was the one who eat them and finished them before Kevin even noticed they were there.

As Jacob put the last grape in his mouth, he made eye contact with Kevin. Kevin busted out in laughter realizing how much Jacob had eaten. They each got distracted, basking in the situation that wasn't even that funny. However, when a boy is with his best friend, everything is funnier than it would be otherwise.

The boys started playing video games. Yelling loudly at each other for the mistakes they made on the co-ed game. Surprisingly, Jacob's parents didn't wake.

"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!" Jacob yelled, as Kevin was busy admiring the graphics of the sky in the game. "Kevin!" And suddenly Kevin was shot in the back by another duo team. Jacob let out a long sigh, frustrated over the silly mistake. He glared at Kevin who was busy laughing.

Jacob grabbed him, he pulled him under his arms, suffocating the boy between his elbow and his chest, lightly choking him. The boys boy laughed as Kevin tried to get out and eventually when he did there was playful shoving and pushing between the boys.

Suddenly, they fell asleep. Tangled in each other's bodies on Jacob's bed.

💘

The next morning Jacob's mom opened the door to her son's room surprised to see him snuggled into the neck of his best friend. The boys were peaceful so she decided not to wake them and for a second she smiled at them. She closed the door lightly, walking down the steps to make the two best friends breakfast, hoping they would eventually get together in a deeper, romantic way.

Since the beginning of time Jacob and Kevin's mom always discussed their hopes for a healthy and beautiful relationship between their sons. They knew the feelings the boys shared, it was so obvious, especially with that mothers intuition. Kevin talked about Jacob all the time, Jacob talked about Kevin all the time, and they looked at eachother as if they wanted to kiss them until every last light on earth went black.

Whether or not they wanted to admit their feelings, everyone else knew. Kevin was made for Jacob and vise versa. Like soul mates they were connected and tied together like none other.

💘

Kevin and Jacob showed up at the arcade at 2:30 on the dot, just as they discussed with Changmin and Sunwoo. Jacob's mom had fed them a well balanced breakfast and a delicious lunch to fill them up for as long as the day served necessary. The two boys ran seeing their two friends at the vending machines discussing something, probably fortnite and / or sports.

They greeted them hello, and the other boys greeted them back. Before Kevin and Jacob joined in the conversation, which was indeed about fortnite and sports. Then, eventually the boys started to walk around and play the games at the arcade. They went to the arcade quite often so they all knew the games by heart and where they were placed and if something changed they were the first to notice. They went so often they knew the staff by first name basis.

The boys went around, Jacob and Sunwoo playing the table ball games, while Kevin and Changmin went on a search for something more their styles.

They went game to game trying to find something to fit their moods and wants, "Hey, Min." Kevin spoke up.

"Yea?"

"Isn't that Younghoon?"

Changmin looked away from the pacman and street fighter games towards where Kevin had pointed. There his boyfriend stood, with a shorter male, with five-like orange hair, playing the hand hockey game.

"Why is he here?" Changmin questions, looking at him and the other boy suspicious. Suddenly Changmin's jaw clenched. "He's with that boy again! I can't believe he brought him here!" The red haired boy crossed his arms. "Wow."

"Why are you so upset?" Kevin asks. "They just look like bros being bros, dudes being dudes."

Changmin sent Kevin a glare. "Yea right, and you're just friends with Jacob." He tells him sarcastically. Kevin's heart skipped a beat, blood rushing up his veins, painting him red. 'If only', he wanted to comment but he stayed quiet, going back to looking for a game when suddenly it struck him like lightning.

He looked back at the pair of bros, that was Chanhee. Chanhee the heart stealer. The heartbreaker. His ex-boyfriend. The memories struck, he remembered the kind words, the bad words, the cuddles, the arguments, everything. Kevin was never one to miss his ex, and he didn't miss Chanhee, he never did. But those sparkling eyes, that porcelain skin, delicate fingers.

He suddenly wanted someone to take in his arms, give a kiss on the cheek, and tell them he loved him. But it wasn't Chanhee he wanted this time around and he knew that. He wanted someone much better than Chanhee.

💘

Kevin stood in front of the crawl machine with the wolverine plushies, trying to make a plan to collect a plushie for Jacob. He was reaching for the change from his pocket when he heard a familiar voice from behind him. A voice that made him jump.

"You're into superheroes now?" Chanhee asked, making Kevin turned around. "Whenever I'd ask to watch a superhero movie you'd always say they're tacky." He pouted.

Kevin raised an eyebrow. "I dont remember that." He says, shoving the coins back into his pocket, trying to brush passed his ex.

Chanhee stood in the way. "Well, we should go see one. How about Wolverine?"

"Ah, Um, thanks but... but no." He says, holding his hand up to say 'please stop here' and starting to try and walk away again.

Chanhee spoke up again, but a different familiar voice spoke, this time making Kevin smile rather than jump.

"Hey, Kev! We're gonna go get pizza, you're coming aren't you?" Jacob asked, with a beautiful smile, that could never fail to make Kevin swoon.

"Of course I am." Kevin says, obvious hearts in his eyes for the older male. Jacob took his hand, dragging him towards Sunwoo and Changmin, ignoring Chanhee's existence and making Kevin forget the whole interaction.

Suddenly, Kevin's hand felt sweaty in Jacob's, his cheeks were all shades of pink and red, and his head was only spinning with thoughts of Jacob.
