They had gone to Jonghyun's apartment so he could get ready, Jonghyun not wanting to accidentally ruin some of Minho's clothes. It was only as they reached the door that Jonghyun remembered the place was still a mess from celebrating Kibum.

"I, uh, haven't been able to clean, I'm so sorry about the mess" Jonghyun apologized as he unlocked the door.

"Don't worry about it" Minho brushed it off as the door opened.

He felt embarrassed as his eyes fell on the empty cans and bottles, hoping the CEO wouldn't say anything.

"You can wait anywhere, it shouldn't take me long to get ready" Jonghyun led him into the apartment and closed the door.

He mentally sighed to himself when Minho didn't comment on the state of his apartment, but he also left the room quickly to avoid any comments Minho was holding in. Jonghyun's closet may have been kind of empty, but he knew he could find something nice and casual to wear. He wanted his first impression on Jinki to be a good one, especially since Minho and Jinki seem to be really close. After some rummaging and hard decisions, Jonghyun was finally happy with his outfit, even if it was just a t-shirt and nice jeans.

It didn't take him long to change, double checking his hair and brushing it a bit before he exited his room. A few steps and suddenly he was frozen in place at the sight of his living room.

"I thought since I had time I'd clean up a little, I found the trash bags under the sink" Minho explained, holding a barely full bag, "I can take this down while you get Kibum and Taemin"

"You didn't have to do that, just set it by the door, I'll deal with it later" Jonghyun was flustered but Minho just smiled.

"I don't mind, you haven't had the time and I did, I'll run it down and wait in the car, okay?" He wasn't taking no for an answer and part of Jonghyun just wanted to kiss him.

"Ah, okay, we'll be down soon" They left the apartment together, Jonghyun locking the door as Minho continued down the hall.

He really was perfect, wasn't he?

Jonghyun shook himself out of his thoughts and turned towards Taemin's door, knocking a few times. He knew he was a little early, but he also knew they wouldn't mind.

Taemin's smiling face greeted him, "Hey! Kibum's throwing on some clothes, he should be ready soon" He moved to let Jonghyun in.

"Minho is waiting in the car" Jonghyun followed Taemin inside, letting the door shut behind them.

"So how'd it go?" Taemin asked, pocketing his wallet and phone.

"It was great, we got ice cream, watched a movie, did some other stuff" Jonghyun smiled at the memory, "He's really amazing"

"You better ask him out then, if you wait too long he could slip away" Taemin warned as they heard a door open.

"He's got a busy life, but I think I'm officially his sugar baby" As Jonghyun spoke, Kibum's footsteps got faster.

"You're joking!" Kibum almost yelled and Jonghyun shook his head, "Oh my god, you did it"

"It's thanks to you, he heard you over the phone and suggested he make it a reality" Taemin cheered at this as Kibum started clapping and making his way to the two of them.

"Let's not keep him waiting any longer then" Taemin suggested, holding out his hand for Kibum.

"Can't wait to meet sugar daddy Choi Minho" Kibum looked to Jonghyun as Taemin led them out.

"That's not all you'll be meeting" Jonghyun told them as they entered the hall.

"Who else is coming?" Taemin looked behind him for a moment.

"His childhood friend, Jinki, he's a songwriter" Jonghyun explained, "They meet up once a week, and I guess Minho wanted us to meet him! And to finally meet you" He poked Kibum's back lightly.

"A childhood friend?" Taemin asked for clarification.

"Yeah, they've stuck together that long" Jonghyun was still surprised by it honestly.

"I found your first competition" Taemin sighed as they reached the elevator.

"You don't know, if it's been this long then maybe this Jinki guy just isn't attracted to him" Kibum pressed the button as their group came to a stop.

"Or he's just been waiting for the right time, and he's never found it" Taemin countered, and Jonghyun tried not to let himself become worried.

"But that still doesn't guarantee that Minho feels the same, and he seems to really like Jjong" Kibum smiled at his friend.

"True, and you're already his sugar baby" Taemin was smiling too, and Jonghyun looked down in embarrassment.

"Let's just hurry and get to the car" Jonghyun rushed them into the elevator that was thankfully empty.

"You should sing a duet with him" Kibum suggested, "And make sure it's a love song"

"If I do, then you and Taemin have to do one too" Jonghyun compromised, laughing slightly as Kibum sighed.

"Hell yeah, that sounds like a great idea" Taemin smiled mischievously at his boyfriend, "A great first impression too"

"Fine, but you better not go back on your word" Kibum shot daggers at Jonghyun.

"We'll see" Jonghyun teased, leading the way out of the elevator.

He led his friends outside and to Minho's car, since he knew what he was looking for. Jonghyun found himself smiling as he spotted Minho standing beside the car instead of waiting inside.

"Oh damn, he looks better in person" Kibum mumbled, making Taemin and Jonghyun snicker to themselves.

"Ready to go?" Minho smiled at them, and Jonghyun nodded.

"And this is Kibum" Jonghyun introduced him, and Taemin let go of Kibum's hand so he could shake the CEO's hand.

"Nice to finally meet you, Kibum" Minho shook Kibum's hand carefully.

"Nice to finally meet you too" Kibum gave him a wide smile.

"Bummie hurry, I already miss you" Taemin whined from the other side of the car.

Kibum rolled his eyes with a fond giggle, "I'm coming, you baby"

The couple got into the back seat, while Jonghyun happily took the passenger's seat. And god, Jonghyun could hardly contain his excitement.
