seonghwa

Jongho was onto his second target.

Park Seonghwa. The oldest of the group was always considered to be the one who would take care of the others, always tending to their needs and trying to make them feel as comfortable as possible. However, the man couldn't seem to do the same for himself. He was constantly overworking, practicing, cooking, cleaning, and everything in between, leaving no time to himself for rest.

This gave Jongho the idea of going to him next after Hongjoong. After all, those two seemed to always be the busiest.

He was going to give Seonghwa a lot of loving, as the oldest hyung would give to him all the time, given that Jongho was their youngest member. Seonghwa always had a soft spot for the boy.

It all started when Jongho thought of helping out his oldest hyung in making dinner for the others while they were out either practicing, working, or taking some time to themselves. The man had lit up when he came into the kitchen, asking if he could help. Jongho was bombarded with the task of cutting up all the vegetables as Seonghwa started to get the pots and pans ready for cooking. They worked together in tandem, a flow that made them breeze past the cooking for dinner easily.

The two were able to finish a lot earlier than expected, and so now they were left with just cleaning up after themselves. Jongho was about to go and start washing the pile of dishes in the sink from all their efforts, however, Seonghwa had other plans for the boy. He tuts him off.

"Nope! You have helped me more than enough today already. I'll take care of the rest of it here." The oldest shoos him away as he goes to wash the dishes instead. Jongho reluctantly obliges and instead opts to sit on top of the counter beside him and lightly kicking his feet as he blows air against his pout creating an adorable sound from the action, not wanting to leave his hyung alone.

Jongho doesn't notice Seonghwa's small coos over the younger's cute little habit.

They had a nice peaceful moment of casual chatting while Seonghwa was working on getting those plates clean, talking about that one time Jongho had accidentally seen Hongjoong in the bathroom shaving at his legs as he tried singing a Micheal Jackson song with all the soul he could give.

"Promise me you won't tell Hongjoong I saw that, he'll take away my TV privileges." Seonghwa chuckles at that as he sets down the last plate that was washed on the dish rack. He sends the youngest a smile that makes his heart melt at the beauty behind it.

"Only if you promise me you won't tell him that I was the one that threw his favorite old torn socks away." Jongho laughs.

"It's a promise, then!" The maknae reaches out his pinky to the older man to seal the deal. The raven-haired took it with his own pinky as they exchanged their promise and warm smiles with one another. They take a few moments more to enjoy each other's presence as their eyes meet.

Seonghwa has always been someone Jongho could come to when he just wanted to feel in the moment and feel loved and cared for, like someone who would move the ends of the earth just for you. He found solace in the older man.

Jongho to Seonghwa was like honey on a slice of crispy toast. While it may be rough around the edges, there is a sweetness that overflows as you get into it. A treat that serves as a good morning call. Warm, strong, and yet so delicate and sweet. That was Jongho.

As the man looks into the boy's eyes that hold the stars and the galaxy in them, he feels entranced by the deep oceans of dark brown in them that makes Seonghwa feel something shift inside of him. He felt as if there was this aura coming off from the boy, a spark, that made him want to dive into him, exploring every single part of his body, feeling the warmth underneath his skin. Suddenly, Seonghwa moves on his own.
