the next day at school, beomgyu avoided hueningkai at all costs. if he so much as heard his name mentioned, he'd run like his ass was on fire.
taehyun told him all throughout the day that it was very cowardly of him to do so but he didn't care. after crying his eyes out in the bathroom stall of school and then proceeding to cry his eyes out again at taehyun's house made him think things; he definitely doesn't want to cry again and the mere mention of hueningkai's name made his heart ache.
it was now drawing near lunch time and beomgyu sat in his geometry class, suddenly dreading lunch. he wished for the first time in forever that his geometry class never ended. if that was the case, he would not have to face hueningkai.
but luck is not on beomgyu's side and soon, the bell chimed for lunch. his classmates bolted out the door with grumbling bellies and then there was beomgyu, slowly by surely making his way to the cafeteria.
soon he spotted hueningkai, taehyun, yeonjun, and soobin sitting down at their usual spot and at that moment, all he wanted to do was run.
the library didn't seem so bad at this time, right? plenty of people eat there...
mustering up all the courage he had, he marched towards the table, taking his usual spot in between taehyun and hueningkai.
"hyung!" hueningkai flung his arms around beomgyu. "i haven't seen you all day, it were as if you were ignoring me all day!" hueningkai's lip turn toward into a pout.
"of course not huening!" beomgyu lied, pinching his cute little brother's cheeks. "i just was busy."
"with?" hueningkai inquired, curiously.
"uhhh..." beomgyu gulped, realizing that all his friends eyes were on him. "i had to work on homework so i went to the library."
"woah," yeonjun snorted while taking a bite out of his apple. "you? choi beomgyu? working on homework? are you okay? are you feeling sick?"
"i do my homework, yeonjun!" beomgyu huffed, crossing his arms.
"yah where's the hyung, kid?! sheesh i get no respect!" yeonjun threw a fry at beomgyu angrily.
"i respect you hyung." soobin blinked at yeonjun with a radiant smile.
yeonjun turned bright red at the cutie's gaze and mumbled, "t-thanks soobinie."
taehyun smirked and remarked, "why you blushing, hyung?"
"yah!" yeonjun denied, turning into a tomato. "i'm not blushing this is just my natural color!"
"hmm sure hyung." beomgyu rose an eyebrow.
soon, their conversations died down and they were engrossed on eating their food. a few minutes later, the bell rung, dismissing the young boys back to class.
"bye losers, we're out." yeonjun threw a peace sign up and walked hand-in-hand with soobin to class.
"they're so gay." taehyun snickered, walking alongside beomgyu and hueningkai.
"i know right!" hueningkai face palmed. "they should just get together already, they're like my favorite ship."
"you know what my favorite ship is?" taehyun asked with a smirk, looking knowingly at beomgyu.
"what is your favorite ship, hyung?" hueningkai asked, innocently.
beomgyu glared at taehyun and mouthed, "don't you dare."
taehyun being the savage king he is, he replied, "beomkai."
"who's beomkai?" hueningkai scratched his chin, squinting his eyes, thinking really hard.
"well i'm going to go now bye!" beomgyu saw his class up ahead and thought it was the perfect time to dip out of that awkward conversation.
"wait!" hueningkai called out after his hyung. "hyung i need to ask of you a favor."
taehyun smirked, knowing what hueningkai was going to ask and simply walked away to his own classroom.
soon, the hallways were empty and the two boys stood there, looking at each other in the eyes.
"yes hueningkai?" beomgyu asked inpatiently.
"you see..." hueningkai fiddled with his hands nervously.
"hueningkai?" beomgyu's eyebrows furrowed in concern.
what was the matter?
"so you know how i like yuna?" hueningkai started.
beomgyu had to restrain himself from rolling his eyes and responded, "yes, i'm aware."
"well," hueningkai continued. "i heard from a friend of mine that she likes to change guy's orientation. you know? line change a gay to a straight guy? so she can be like "oh yeah that's my power, i'm that hot" i guess that in-powers her but anyway, i am going to ask... will you be my fake boyfriend?"
beomgyu's knees buckled and suddenly, he was on the floor.
hmm how did he get there?
"hyung!" hueningkai screeched, pulling his hyung up on his feet again. "are you okay?"
"y-yeah," beomgyu gulped at their proximity. "i'm just shocked you'd even ask that."
"it's okay to say no hyung," hueningkai smiled sadly. "i get it, you're not gay and you don't want to date me, forget i asked."
hueningkai was just about to start walking away when beomgyu encircled his fingers around hueningkai's wrist and pulled him close to him.
"i'll be your fake boyfriend." beomgyu agreed, watching as hueningkai blushed at how close his hyung was. he could feel his hyung's breath fanning his face and woah did it smell good. it smelt like cinnamon, the gum beomgyu loved chewing the most.
"t-thank you hyung." hueningkai bowed at him, turning to leave only to be pulled back by beomgyu again.
gosh was beomgyu trying to give him a heart attack?
wait a minute why was his heart being so fast around beomgyu anyway? it's just his hyung.
his really... really... really... really attractive hyung beomgyu.
"under one condition." beomgyu smirked, watching the pretty boy gulp.
"w-which is?" hueningkai asked, biting his lip.
"we get to act like a real couple," beomgyu explained. "if we're going to fake it, i say, might as well give it our 100%, got it?"
"y-yes hyung." hueningkai stuttered, not knowing why one, his hyung was bringing him so close to him and why two, his hyung was even affecting him this way.
"okay babe now run along to class," beomgyu flashed hueningkai his pearly whites. "don't want you even later than you already are."
beomgyu placed a small kiss on hueningkai's forehead and as hueningkai rushed to class, he couldn't help but think:
what the fuck did he just get himself into?
