boys are stupid (choen)

09

Cynthia, Kevin and Chase were waiting outside of the change rooms in a store for Noen. He was currently trying on a pair of overalls. Noen spent a while struggling to clip the strap going over his shoulder to the part it was supposed to connect to.

Eventually, he clipped it in place. He slipped his shoes back on then looked in the mirror.

Not bad. He thought before stepping out.

Noen put his hands on his hips and cleared his throat as an attempt to let the other know he was ready. Cynthia was the first one to notice him.

"Ohmygosh Noen you look adorable! How could you not want this? Am I right guys?" She asked turning around and facing Chase and Kevin who agreed. Kevin nodded his head before giving Noen a thumbs up.

"They suit you." Noen smiled at Kevin, knowing they weren't close enough for the taller male to be gushing over how cute Noen looked in them.

He looked over at Chase who hadn't said anything. The e-boy looked flushed as his cheeks were red and he seemed to be avoiding eye contact with Noen. He wasn't going to deny that it upset him.

"So I should get it?" He said, trying to hide the hurt in his voice.

"Absolutely."

"Ya."

"Fuck yes." Noen turned back to Chase who had gotten over his moment. "You look so cute in it." Chase nodded in confirmation.

"Okay." Noen smiled at the Kevin, Cynthia and Chase.

"Shit!" Kevin exclaimed rather loudly.

"What is it Kev?" Cynthia looked at the crackhead with concern.

"We're s'posed to be back at the hotel by 2:30 to meet with the others!" Noen watched as realisation crawled its way onto Cynthia's face.

"Shit! Noen! Buy it. We have to go." Kevin and Cynthia raced out of the store.

"Noen and Chase were equally confused with the sudden outburst.

"Um," Chase raised his eyebrows as he made eye contact with Noen to make sure he wasn't the only one unsure of what had just happened.

"Don't look at me I don't know," Noen said before making his way back to the change room.

Noen began his attempt to unclip the overalls again when he realised it would be just as hard a it was clipping them together. He didn't want to keep Chase waiting so the smaller boy tried again, using all of his might but the straps remained stubborn.

Chase was waiting outside of the changeroom, thinking about Noen when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and Noen was there with flushed cheeks. He also noticed that Noen was still wearing the overalls.

"Can you help me," Noen looked embarrassed as he continued. "I can't detach the strap." His cheeks reddened. Chase smiled.

"Of course." He laughed slightly as he helped Noen unclip the strap. Noen smiled at him and walked back into the changeroom to finish getting back into his clothes.

Once Noen had changed he walked back out of the changeroom and marched past Chase as if he was on a mission. The e-boy laughed at the other's actions and followed him to the checkout.

"Eager to buy the overalls huh?" He asked with a smirk adorning his features.

"Yes." Noen stopped in the line and turned to Chase. "Please stand next to me." Chase took a closer look at the older boys face and realised he was uncomfortable going through the checkout in his own.
