what a surprise. "I mean, sure. it's not like I brought my car with me. how did you know?"

"I didn't see your car parked outside." jaehyung walked a little faster to match younghyun's pace, walking towards the exit and out to the many stairs. there they're bathed by the bright sun that was about to fall down. as silence surrounds them, younghyun thought that he could confess that he liked...jaehyung. surprising, knowing that younghyun only met him for a year. but everything can happen within those days and months.

...

that one time where they stayed at the cafeteria alone because no one was there. it was really calming because usually visiting the cafe meaning noise. and food fights. and the reason why they were there was because they got out of class early, way before break.

and there was that time where jaehyung's locker got switched with younghyun's because the other guys took all the contents out of the boy's lockers and exchanged it with each other. and there jaehyung got younghyun's gym shorts, which was pretty funny because he was looking for it.

there are more than that, but nothing romantic.

"wanna go to my house?" the younger asked randomly, walking near the bus stop which they didn't really need because his house is pretty close. "maybe. I don't like mine." wait. I haven't been to his while he has been to mine. " if you don't want me to go to your house and borrow your anime comics then that's fine."

"you'd really think I'll do that?" jaehyung laughed a bit, walking a little slower because younghyun couldnt keep up with his pace. "of course."

they dont really have a lot of things to do, knowing that its almost summer already so all they have to do now is to prepare for the upcoming performance. so they walked together to younghyun's house, which was only a few blocks away from where theyre standing.

when reaching the front door he could hear his brother laughing. maybe minho is here. he opened the door anyway to find the two younger boys playing wuth their phones but their bodies are next to each other. how cute.

"your brother?" jaehyung asked, adjusting the guitar belt that hung on his shoulders. the younger nodded and ushered him to go to his room, not letting jaehyung see his brother (or maybe two).

...

"so...?"
"let's practice?"

the two teenagers looked at each other with confused faces, but younghyun managed to blush a tiny bit before getting his own guitar and showed the older the sheet that theyre going to perform. "why dont we start with the chorus and we'll sing it together?"

"sure." said jaehyung blankly and he strummed the instrument that he is holding.

as the voices that came out of the instrument started to turn to a tune, the two boys started singing, harmonizing as they smile to each other. younghyun forgot all those hard times during the exam and before that, not remembering for a second about his father who he hates so much and the situation with his mother, who recently told him that she is a rainbow. this is why he loves music. the calming voices that brings peace. but what he most loved is jaehyung's gorgeous voice, which made him blush even more, like the color of a tomato. the older noticed that, and started smiling as well.

he too, forgot about his drunk mother who was always faithful to her husband, but things didnt really go as he expected life to be. when he held an instrument, a guitar, he felt like the world around him change. he began to play it instead to crying to sleep. he began to play instead to fighting with his mother.

as the song ends, they watched each other in awe but also not knowing that jisung came in the room, eyes wide and smiling like crazy. "so, um, you two date?"

"jisung, get your ass out of the room or something-"
"no he's right. he's got a point."

even the time stops just for a while, but what surprised younghyun the most is a pair of lips who touched his own.

is this real?
