mingi had passed the final of his class and to celebrate hongjoong had taken him out on their first official date. the polaroids from that night were hung on the lights on mingi's wall above his desk. his little 'motivation' so to speak whenever he was starting to feel stressed. the younger in the mean time realized how much he enjoyed reading and did it more often, he also discovered that it was a nice way to calm down. he didn't want to bother hongjoong all the time. mingi heard the door to his apartment open and looked at the clock. ten o'clock, the exact hongjoong got home now that all those late nights they spent together could be spent in the comfort of one of their homes. he still cleaned and locked up but the drive was all of about five minutes, which both of them were grateful for.
hongjoong knocked softly on mingi's open door making his presence known as not to startle the other, though he did enjoy the other's cute reactions when he did. the older wrapped his arms around the taller from behind and leaned his weight on the back of his desk chair. mingi's closed his book and placed a gentle kiss on the back of hongjoong's hand before spinning around to face the other. hongjoong leaned down to press a kiss to the other's lips and he sighed feeling sort of sleepy. but he also had been pushing off fixing his hair for a while and he knew if he didn't do it now while it was on his mind he wouldn't ever do it, so he released the other saying he would order some takeout and headed to the bathroom.
the older practically lived at mingi's apartment at this point, having finally just started staying over instead of leaving when mingi had fallen asleep. they both found that the two of them sleep much better together. limbs tangled and cuddled together.
mingi stretched his arms above his head and stood up wanting to see where the smaller had went. "WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING!?" mingi slapped the scissors out of the smaller's hand almost causing them to fall on his foot. "I COULD ASK YOU THE SAME QUESTION" "WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT TOUCHING YOUR HAIR? YOU KNOW WHAT I WON'T ALLOW IT!" mingi grabbed the red dye and the scissors and tossed them in the trash. confused and quite shocked at the younger's outburst hongjoong through his hands up. "what is your deal!" mingi didn't answer, already blushing and heading to the living room, thinking if the tv was on the other wouldn't question his motives further.
a knowing smirk settled on the older's face as he rested his arms on the back of the couch, his head next to mingi's. "cutie, that dye was expensive why'd you do that?" the smaller had a hunch, well, he was almost one hundred percent sure of the reason, but he wanted to hear the latter say it. he nibbled the younger's ear gently before placing a kiss to his neck, working his way down to his shoulder's. "just tell me, use your words cutie" mingi practically gulped and his eyes darted everywhere in the room trying to find a solid way to get out of the situation. his mind blanked when the older pushed away his t-shirt so he could nip at his collar bone. "don't be shy cutie" "okay it's hot, your long hair is hot, especially when you pull it back, now will you let me breath" "there. was that so hard baby" mingi flushed at the new pet name and practically shrank into the couch. hongjoong trailed kisses up the other's neck once more before finally stopping to press a gentle peck on his cheek.
as the older walked away mingi watched and then averted his gaze suddenly feeling small despite his height. suddenly the other's small waist was brought to his attention and he shook his head feeling embarrassed.
the take out boxes were now empty and thrown away, the two cuddled on their bed. a movie playing on the older's laptop however neither seemed to want to pay that much attention to guardians of the galaxy at the moment. mingi had tried to brush off the soft butterfly kisses the older gave him, but he couldn't ignore them and how he wanted more of them, but of course he was shy and didn't ask, or show how they made him feel. and that would have been fine if hongjoong wasn't so observant. the older had placed a hand underneath mingi's t-shirt to rest on his stomach and the other played with his dark hair. easily on of his favorite things to do.
the younger had sent glances to the older making sure he was paying attention to the movie and not his blushing cheeks or nervous face. but suddenly feeling brave mingi shifted his position so he was facing the shorter and due to hongjoong's shirt being oversized it slipped off his shoulder leaving his collarbone and shoulder exposed. mingi placed a small kiss to the other's shoulder at first playing it off as an innocent gesture. but he nipped at the other's skin as he moved closer to his collar bone. hongjoong's soft tug on his hair told him his action's weren't being unnoticed as the older's face tried to say they were. experimenting mingi sucked gently where his neck and shoulder met, and felt the other tangle his finger's in his hair rather than gently stroke though it. he almost let a grin form on his lips but continued playing gentle. a few more kisses were placed and mingi nibbled on the other's ear lobe, letting the faintest of smiles quirk at his lips. "don't start something you can't finish cutie" hongjoong hadn't looked away from the screen but his facial expression had hardened and his eyes seemed to be trying to see something other than the movie.
"try me love" "i don't think you know what you're saying there, deary" the older had flipped the position they were in, the movie completely forgotten, hongjoong hovering over the younger, his hair let loose of the elastic that usually kept it out of his face. mingi savored the sight before grinning cheekily. that grin letting hongjoong know everything he needed to.

one am. mingi opened his eyes softly and melted into the heat source, that being of hongjoong to which was spooning him. he faced the other, and wrapped his arms around his waist, sliding down in the process so he could bury his face in the shorter's bare chest. "mingi, go to sleep cutie i'm right here okay." hongjoong clasped their hands together and the younger smiled in his sleepy state before nodding. he shut his eyes holding on to the older protectively and making himself feel like a koala. "i love you joong" "i love you too cutie"
