It Looks Better On Him (MingKit)

Prompt: Shopping || Pairing: Ming x Kit

"After this store do you want to grab something to eat?" Beam asked as they walked into an all too familiar store. Kit smiled thinly as he recognized this being one that his boyfriend had brought him here several times to buy an outfits for his many campus moon events or for gifts.

"Yes." Pha groaned as his stomach growled. All three of them had been up since early morning to get their christmas gifts. Kit had already went shopping with Ming for Pha and Beam's. So, today was for family and Ming. As of right now, the only person he hadn't found a gift for is Ming. He had high hopes that he'd find the gift here.

'Kitty?" Beam said while nudging him. Kit nearly toppled from the bags from all his shopping of the day.

"Yeah, let's get something after this." Kit agreed bumping Beam's shoulder back. The three of them went their separate ways into the store. Beam had gone over to the jewelry while Pha went towards the shoes section. Kit wandered over to the jacket section. He remembered how Ming had complained last week about how Non had ruined his favorite jean jacket with the wool lining. He didn't want to ask how with how livid Ming had been that day.

Kit came to a stop in front of a black bomber leather jacket. It took him a few minutes before he recognized it. He reached out for the collar of the jacket feeling the mixture of plush leather and the ultra soft satin lining. A soft smile spreading across his face at the memory.

"Yes, I am picking something nice. What makes you think- Yes, I am bringing Ming. Yes, we are staying at the hotel this time. If you'd still like us not to be a cousin short come picture time then-." Kit complained to his sister over the phone as he shuffled through the rack. They were having family pictures done at his grandmother's this weekend. Since, Ming and him were leaving straight from campus on Friday to Kit's grandmother's estate. He needed to buy a piece of clothing that is green to match the color this year.

"She'll be so disappointed. She's already made up a room for you two." Lawan stated. Kit rolled his eyes as he sighed. His hands stopping on a green button up that was his size.

"The only way I'm agreeing to it is if we aren't even on the same floor as him."  Kit caved. He knew that Ming wouldn't mind not being at the hotel. He adored Kit's grandmother. The two of them even talk to each other regularly just like Ming does with his own grandmother.

"I'll make it happen." Lawan happily replied. Kit could feel her beaming smile through the phone "Text you later, Tong is home."

"You too." Kit said ending the call. He shoved his phone in his pocket and took the shirt off the rack. He looked it over thinking it would look good under the vest he'd liked earlier. It was still in the dressing room so he could try it out. Plus, Ming was in there too and could give his opinion. They'd already picked out Ming's shirt because his sister said that they were doing couple pictures too. 

Kit made his way back to the dressing rooms. He hoped that  it looked as good as he pictured in his mind. The door was still propped open to keep from locking him out."How do you feel about us staying at Grandma's instead of the hotel room?" Kit asked Ming as he stepped inside not bothering to look at him as he shut the door.

"I mean it's fine with me but I thought you wanted us to have some space from the one who shall not be named?" Ming answered sitting in the arm chair in the corner of the room. 

"Grandma's already got a room ready for us and I can live with it if he's not on the same floor as us." Kit replied hanging the shirt on the rack before taking his own off.

"If you're okay with the arrangement then I am, Kitkat. I'll cancel the reservations real quick." Ming stated forcing himself not watch Kit get undressed.

"Okay." Kit replied changing into the button down shirt. Kit liked how soft and breathable the shirt was. He tucked it into the black wash jeans he'd picked out then he put on the single breasted shawl vest on over top of it. The combination looks just as good as he thought as he finally stepped over in front of the full length mirror to check out his outfit. 

"I cancelled the reservation and that looks good on you." Ming stated with his tone huskier than before. 

The tone had Kit looking at Ming's reflection in the mirror to say something but then he found himself speechless. His gaze met Ming's darkened one.  While he'd been looking for the shirt Ming had tried on the black leather bomber jacket that hadn't fit him earlier. It'd been too big in the arms making him look way smaller than he is. On Ming thought it fit him perfectly. He looked sexy with it over his white buttoned down school shirt that the top three buttons are undone and the hem pulled out. Kit swallowed watching Ming's eyes dropping to catch the movement. 

'Damn, it looks better on him than me.' Kit thought as he watched Ming get up from the chair. 

"Thank you." Ming chuckled making Kit realized that he'd said that out loud. Kit could feel the heat on his cheeks. Ming came to a stop adjusting Kit's vest back strap so that it wasn't as loose then turned the shorter man around. Lithe fingers unbuttoning two of his buttons adjusting the collar with the vest making Kit's heart race. "Don't wear a tie with this outfit." Ming stated suggestively. 

Kit's eyes dropped to the black tie still around Ming's neck. Ming chuckled again letting Kit know that he had known what Kit would do at those words. Pushing the thoughts of how they were in a dressing room out of his mind. He took hold of the tie pulling him down -

"Kit? Kitty!" Beam's deep timbered voice stirred him from his memory making Kit jump. 

"What?" Kit asked feeling his cheeks heat up in a different reason than the memory. 

"I've been calling your name for the past two minutes but you didn't answer me. You okay?" Beam said as his brow raised in concern. 

"Yes, I'm fine. I was I was thinking about something but anyways, you have my full attention." Kit answered sheepishly. 

"Me and Pha are going to the food court. Meet us there when you're done here, okay?"  

"Okay, see you in a few minutes." Kit replied watching Beam meet Pha at the exit. Kit looked down at the jacket still in his hand. Yeah, he knew what he was getting his boyfriend for christmas now.
