Accidental Rental

One Arm Hug

"Me too," Baekho sighed as they cleaned up their mess and laid down. Minhyun smiled and snuggled close to him after pulling the blanket around them. Baekho wrapped an arm lazily around Minhyun who had made himself comfortable. They were in Minhyun's home since Baekho wanted to spare an awkward situation with his sister.

"Speaking of, you're really fine if I go overseas for work?" Minhyun asked and gently rubbed his thumb on Baekho's arm.

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I? You're gonna be a great actor. Make a name for yourself and be the best! No one will be able to stop you," Baekho chirped. Minhyun chuckled and hummed.

"You're the best," Minhyun said softly and kissed his bare chest. Baekho snickered and gave Minhyun a smug smile.

"You bet I am," Baekho said and Minhyun poked his nose.

"Silly."

Baekho scoffed and kissed his head. "Yeah, yeah. I'll call you everyday!"

"I might have to work the whole day though."

"Well... Then I'll text you whenever I'm free."

"Hmm~ When did you become this clingy?"

"I'm not. Fine, I won't text or call you then," Baekho said and pouted. Minhyun gasped and shook his head.

"No, no. Please. I want you to do it every second," Minhyun whined and Baekho turned his head, pretending to sulk. Minhyun gasped and climbed higher, pressing kisses all over his face. "Don't be mad. Please?"

Baekho giggled when Minhyun accidentally squeezed his sides. He slapped his hand over his mouth and coughed awkwardly. Minhyun stared starrily at Baekho and he sighed. "I'm not mad. Well, what about your sister? Is she...fine?"

"The video hit quite hard actually. My agency told me that a lot of brand deals cut her off after that video went viral. It didn't affect me and I made sure nobody knows what the fight was about too."

"Did you lie?"

"No. I just told them that it was a private matter and I wish they would understand."

"Hmm..." Baekho ran a hand through Minhyun's hair. "What if you told them you're in a relationship?"

"Eh? You want to publicise our relationship?"

"No, no. I mean as a precaution against future scandals and things like that, you can just tell your agency that you're already in a relationship and wish to keep it private?"

Minhyun stared at Baekho who blinked and tilted his head. He grinned and kissed Baekho who squeaked. "You're so smart!"

"Oof. Stop. Get off," Baekho said while laughing and trying to pry Minhyun off him. Minhyun settled down and hugged him tightly.

"I think I'll do that. It'll give me a peace of mind and probably my agency too since I'll be-" Minhyun paused and Baekho raised a brow.

"You'll be what?"

"N-nothing. We should sleep."

Baekho frowned and flicked Minhyun's forehead. "Don't tell me you're acting as a love interest, you stupidly handsome guy."

Minhyun howled and rubbed his forehead, cheeks turning pink. "Y-yes? But there's no kiss scene between us so that's fine, right?"

Baekho sighed and shrugged. "Maybe."

"No, don't sulk again," Minhyun whined and Baekho laughed as Minhyun kissed his lips again.

"I'm just joking. Let's sleep. I have work tomorrow."

"I have to discuss my schedule tomorrow too. Good night, Baekho."

"Night."

###

Minhyun stood in front of the counters and fiddled around with his luggage as he waited for Baekho who came running once he was done with his business in the toilet.

"I'm sorry about that! Shouldn't have taken the curry before this," Baekho groaned as he caught up to Minhyun who just smiled and shook his head.

"You alright?"

"Yep!"

"Make sure to text me when you get home safely too."

"I will, mum. Haha. You're the one going overseas but you're worrying over me so much, hmm..." Baekho smiled and Minhyun tilted his head.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing. Just reminded of when I might have said some nasty stuff to you about being nice."

"Ah... I remember. You weren't sure if I was being nice to you because I was nice or just for the sake of my job then," Minhyun said and Baekho became flustered.

"Ugh. Please forget all the stupid things I've done or said before this. I wasn't being honest with myself and you."

"I think you're plenty honest when need be," Minhyun replied and ruffled his hair.

"Aah! Don't treat me like a kid," He scoffed and Minhyun chuckled. Baekho pouted and looked up at his boyfriend before smiling again. He held Minhyun's shirt and gazed away shyly. "Do take care. I'll try to keep up with the things you do now so... Please make sure to tell me too."

Minhyun felt as though his heart would literally jump out right now as he grinned and pulled Baekho into a hug with one hand. "Mhmm... I will. Make sure to keep me up to date with your side too. Just because I might do things that seem more outstanding doesn't mean you don't matter at all, okay? I want to know every little thing about you too. Oh and don't get drunk either."

Baekho chuckled and rubbed his nose. "Alright. I'll be sure to text you." He looked around and made sure nobody took notice of Minhyun yet since he was still in disguise. He tiptoed and lifted Minhyun's face mask, quickly giving him a kiss before giving him another hug. "Okay. I'm going to leave now. Take care, Minhyun."

Minhyun's cheeks became red but so were Baekho's. They waved to each other and grinned. "Take care, Baekho. Thanks for the ride."

Minhyun watched his boyfriend disappear from his view and chuckled softly, his heart still pitter pattering. "Ahh... I really love you."

"Minhyun? Are you ready to go?" his manager asked after having helped him check in. Minhyun nodded.

"I am."

"Alright then. Here's your plane ticket and passport. Hmm? Did something happen?"

"Why do you ask?"

"No reason. You just seem happier."

Minhyun shrugged and motioned for his manager to move on, swiftly shifting his focus towards leading the way instead. Of course he was happy. Baekho made him happy.
