They decided on watching a scary movie, but even as it played neither of them really focused on watching, both captivated by the actions one another does. Hoseok's laugh that rings joyfully through Namjoon's ear as his smile reaches his eyes, Namjoon's dimple when he lets out a chortle or a beaming grin makes Hoseok gaze at it and think he is the prettiest.

Namjoon is busy making funny jokes that unravel the other 94 liner in a laughing fit. He shakes his head as he lands a hand on the others shoulder.

They meet eyes, and perhaps they stare a little too long, longer than necessary that's for sure.

"Your smile is so beautiful.." Namjoon can't help but let the words tumble past his lips, smoother than butter. The other blushes, rubbing his hands over his thigh with a never-ending smile as he goes down to scoop ice cream.

"It's not~, stop lying," he chuckles half heartedly as he licks his top lip to get off any access ice cream off his lip.

"No lies, whatsoever. You, in general are a diamond that shines so beautifully."

"Pft, cheesy."

"Cheesy, I am—maybe. But with cheesiness comes no lies, right?"

"Hah, yeah okay. It's a way for some to get in others pants." Hoseok comments as he eyes Namjoon.

"Hm, maybe," he replies, stroking his chin as if he's thinking. He gets a seat on the shoulder from Hoseok and he laughs.

"Kidding, kidding! But, you really are so pretty."

They're both wearing shy smiles as their eyes lock. The first to look away was Hoseok, as he continues to eat the bowl of ice cream on his lap to distract himself from the hardened stare given at him.

When he looks back up, the other's still looking at him. And if you weren't as blind as Hoseok, you could probably tell he has hearts in his almond eyes.

He raises an eyebrow, "Wha—?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Namjoon lounges himself onto Hoseok, his lips lingering on one another, Hoseok's eyes closing after a shocked gasp. Hoseok hums into the kiss, ice cream long forgotten as he's so immersed into the kiss. the kiss was so delightful, it had him feel like he was being lifted off his feet, headspace only being filled with Namjoon. Namjoon, Namjoon, Namjoon.

Namjoon pulls away as he looks down at the oldest, both of their eyes blown while they shimmer. He lets it all sink in—his lips on Hoseok... Hoseok's lips on his. He just kissed someone he's fell for since the beginning. And, fuck, he feels like he just messed everything up. He gasps as he stands on his elbows backing up while Hoseok's eyebrows furrow.

"H-hope-ah, I'm sorry I didn't mean to! I was just-I just kissed you, oh my go—" his words are cut off sharply as Hoseok is pulling him down again, making them have eye contact. He feels his heart pounding rapidly in his chest, smiling happily. There's a moment of heavy breathing before Hoseok says :

"Shut up, just kiss me."

And once again, their lips are locking together. Namjoon finds purchase on his waist, backing up slowly until he falls on top of Hoseok on the couch with a soft thud, the grip gets tighter, and Hoseok slithers his hand up to his jaw, holding it with such care, it was as if you couldn't feel it.

Hoseok hums into the kiss, all thoughts had left his body, so immersed into the kiss. the kiss was so delightful, it had him feel like he was being lifted off his feet, headspace only being filled with Namjoon. Namjoon, Namjoon, Namjoon.

They pull away for a second time and their foreheads are rest upon one another.

"That was..."

"Great?" Hoseok questions with a chuckle.

"Amazing." Namjoon corrects with a breathy chuckle to match Hoseok's, the air seeming to be happy as they wore akin smiles. Namjoon leans down to give a gentle soft kiss to his lips again.

"I've been wanting.. to kiss you for so long, I think I was going to punch a wall if we didn't kiss just now." Another laugh resounds from them both.

"I've been meaning to kiss you, too. I.. I think this says something right..?" He shyly asks, almost scared to, but the arms that rubbed his sides reassuringly calmed him.

"Mm.. hoseok, I like you. Love you? Maybe. In love with you? No. Not yet. But I can see myself falling deeper for you. You're just so," he flaps his hands around sillily as if it were to make up for his loss of word choices.

"You're just so—can I kiss you again?" He says quickly and hoseok smiles brightly, nodding happily.

Their lips slide together as if meant to be, and they can't stop smiling against one another's mouth. They part only for Namjoon to kiss down his jaw to his chest playfully which alludes giggles and pleads to stop because it's tickling Hoseok fill the room.

They end up cuddling the rest of the night away, Namjoon sleeping like a baby with the other in his arms, while Hoseok stayed up a little longer, replaying the events earlier and smiling like he just won the lottery.

Well, he did. Even if they aren't together officially, he won Namjoon's heart and stole his lips and are now his to kiss, and his heart to hold only.
