Moonlight (Jongho SHINee)

Overflows In Perfection

"Slow down Jonghyun, you've still got work tomorrow" Kibum's laugh hit deaf ears as Jonghyun downed half a bottle of soju, Taemin cheering him on.

"I'll keep him in check, don't worry babe" Taemin leaned towards Kibum, pecking his cheek.

"I can take care of myself!" Jonghyun declared, slamming the bottle onto his coffee table, "Won't you be hungover too?"

Taemin just shrugged, a sly grin on his face as he took another sip of his beer.

The youngest lifted his can in the air, "A toast to Kibum, finally being less put together then I am" Jonghyun couldn't help but giggle and click his bottle to the can,

Kibum reluctantly clinked his bottle to his boyfriend's can, "Not for long, I go on a job hunt tomorrow"

"Unless you somehow become a CEO in a day, I think I can finally say I'm on a higher level than you" Taemin gave Kibum a mischievous grin.

Kibum rolled his eyes, "You're lucky I love you"

"Oh! That'd make you the hottest CEO in Korea" Taemin draped an arm around Kibum, who raised his eyebrows at the statement, "I'd be dating the hottest CEO in the country"

"Don't disgrace CEO Choi's title like that" Jonghyun jokingly glared at Taemin.

"I agree, that man is just pure beauty" Kibum nodded and Taemin gave him a fake sad look.

"What about me?" Taemin whined.

Kibum pinched Taemin's cheek, "Oh, you're pure baby, whiny little baby"

"But I'm your baby" Taemin then made a kissy face and Kibum complied in giving his boyfriend a kiss.

The couple looked over to Jonghyun, expecting to see a playful face of disgust, but instead he was lost in thought.

"Jonghyun?" Kibum asked, a chuckle on the edge of his voice at how serious his drunk friend looked.

"Huh?" Jonghyun looked up.

"What's got you so deep in thought?" Kibum asked as Taemin removed his arm and moved closer to Jonghyun.

"Nothing, I was just spacing out" Jonghyun insisted, but Taemin's grin creeping up to his side worried him.

"Is it handsome CEO Choi Minho" Taemin had a mocking fancy tone to his voice.

"No" Jonghyun looked away, hoping they wouldn't catch his blush and realize the lie.

"You really have a crush on some heartthrob CEO that you've never met?" Kibum wasn't shocked, but Jonghyun still wish he'd act shocked.

"I mean, have you seen him?! And he donates to stuff all the time, so it's not like he's evil" Jonghyun sighed and took a long sip of his soju as Kibum smirked.

"You read up on him?" Jonghyun felt his face get hotter as his friend began to tease him.

"At least once a week he's looking at articles on him at lunch break" Taemin revealed and Kibum laughed.

"Oh my god, you really like him" Kibum was loving this, "You follow him like he's an idol"

"Well, he sure does look like one" Jonghyun countered and Kibum couldn't help but agree, "There's just.. Something about him, you know? If I could buy SHINe clothes I would, just for him"

"Maybe you should go on a job hunt too so you can have money to support your boyfriend" Kibum leaned back and took a sip of his drink.

"If he were my boyfriend I'd get free clothes" Jonghyun clarified, pointing at Kibum.

"You've thought about this a lot haven't you?" Kibum asked.

"Oh yeah, sometimes when there's no customers he talks about what if Choi Minho were to walk in" Taemin answered for him and Kibum scoffed.

"I'm surprised you haven't confessed to him" Kibum's smile this time just gave Jonghyun an idea.

"What if I did?" Jonghyun asked, an eyebrow raised as he pulled out his phone.

"How?" Taemin asked and moved to look over Jonghyun's shoulder.

"If you mailed a letter it'd just go in the trash, email is your best bet" Kibum suggested and Jonghyun smiled at him in thanks.

"You're going to email him a love letter?" Taemin laughed as Jonghyun searched for any email he could reach the CEO at.

"There's an email they say goes either straight to him or to his secretary" Jonghyun observed as Kibum stood.

"I should get going, good luck with the letter, I'll text you when I get home" Kibum pecked Taemin's cheek and by the way he held himself, Jonghyun almost thought he was sober.

"Be safe!" Taemin called as Kibum opened the door.

Jonghyun tried to mumble a goodbye, but his intoxicated self could only really focus on one thing. He wanted this love letter to be perfect, it couldn't sound too desperate or like he just liked Minho's money. Taemin and autocorrect kept it comprehensible and part of Jonghyun couldn't believe he was doing this.

After what seemed like an hour of the two of them huddled around Jonghyun's phone, the email was sent.

"You're so gonna regret this in the morning" Taemin chuckled to himself as Jonghyun finished his bottle of soju.

Neither had been keeping count of how much they had drunk.

"Why would I regret telling the love of my life how I feel?" Jonghyun only slurred his words slightly.

"Because he's a rich CEO and you work at a small cafe" Taemin stopped the older from grabbing another drink, "I'm going to head home while I can still stand, you should get some rest"

"I guess you're right" Jonghyun pouted as Taemin stood and stretched.

"See you at work tomorrow" Taemin smiled and picked up his jacket.

Jonghyun waved goodbye, sighing when the door closed. He stared at the mess of cans and bottles and the occasional chip bag, deciding he was too drunk to clean up as he left it all untouched. Tired footsteps slid him to his bedroom, happy at the thought of finally closing his eyes and drifting somewhere far away.
