don't worry, i'll think of a title // stray kids oneshot.

i can't think of a title.

Bambam has been dating Yugyeom for two months and a half now, and to say he's happy would be an understatement. This is the happiest he's been in so long. He and Yugyeom are going at a steady pace, taking things slow but at the same time they don't feel like they're missing or craving something from the other, and whenever they do they can easily talk about it and reach an agreement really fast. This was all he wanted for the longest time, and to finally be with him like this was like a dream come true. Everything about this was exactly like how he wished it would be, he felt like he was in some cheesy romance movie and it was only getting better.

However, one thing worth mentioning, is that neither of them have said an I Love You to each other. When Yugyeom confessed to Bambam, he said he likes him and has a huge crush on him, and Bambam said he feels the same, but they never exchanged an I love you. It feels like a serious word, as if saying it means this is serious and committed. Not that Bambam wasn't already committed to Yugyeom and that he didn't want it, but.. Up until now he feels like he's still stuck in the post-relationship thrill. He still feels butterflies in his stomach and he still feels giddy when he kisses Yugyeom, as if it was their first time. He still blushes at his compliments and enjoys how timid Yugyeom gets when he flirts with him. It doesn't feel serious yet.

Bambam thought he'd be ready for it when it does get serious.

Appearantly, he wasn't.

One night at the Got7 dorm, Yugyeom was up late at night in the kitchen making himself some tea when Bambam woke up and walked into the kitchen as well. When he saw Yugyeom there, naturally they were both happy, a moment of peace and quiet together, under the soft orange lights of the kitchen, with nothing to disturb them. The illuminated colors of gold above them made Yugyeom's eyes sparkle, and his smile seem even warmer if that was possible.

He was beautiful.

Bambam felt himself falling all over again, and he didn't know if was because Yugyeom's quiet voice was doing wonders to him or if it was because he was still sleepy.

But he wasn't prepared for when Yugyeom suddenly said "I think I love you".

He felt everything come to a halt. He felt his heart beat extremely harsh against his chest and he wondered how he didn't choke when he felt his throat clench.

He wasn't ready oh fuck mayday mayday abandon mission he's not fucking rEADY-

"Thanks." came his reply, with an exceptionally stupid smile. Yugyeom's expression could have killed him on the spot from how shocked and heartbroken it looked.

Bambam wasn't expecting a confession, and Yugyeom wasn't expecting his boyfriend to suddenly embody an incorrect post off of tumblr and reply like that.

"Excuse me?" he asked once he was certain he didn't hear Bambam wrong. He legitimately just said 'thanks'. He expected that was just typical Bambam and he'd get a serious reply now but who the fuck is he kidding?

"Thanks! That's- That's great! That's wonderful! Amazing, even! Yeah, uh, I'm gonna go" Bambam sputtered out in a hurry, throwing Yugyeom a quick finger gun before making a break for it towards his bedroom, leaving Yugyeom standing there questioning everything about this relationship.

That night didn't end well for Yugyeom and Bambam, and the next morning didn't start well for Bang Chan.

Chan can expect a lot of things to be happening in the dorm when he wakes up, he lives with 8 of the biggest crackheads in the Idol industry, but seeing Bambam on their couch was not number one on his list. It wasn't even on the list. Yet here it is.

Bambam looked like he had only woken up a few minutes ago but was still curled up in the sheets he had on the couch, he didn't look like his usual self either. When he noticed Chan, he smiled and waved at him. "Hi!" Bambam greeted, "who the hell let you in here?" Chan greeted back.
