mingi woke up to the rest of his band mates surrounding his bed. he was confused until he realized that hongjoong was asleep on top of him and his arms were wrapped around the shorter.
mingi noticed that everyone was already dressed and quietly asked, "what time is it?"
"it's one in the afternoon," seonghwa answered, "we don't have anything to do so you're good."
"this is adorable! i'm going to set this as my lock screen!" san shouted.
"be quiet, he's sleeping. also you got pictures?" mingi asked.
"uh, yeah, why wouldn't we?" san said.
"send them to me, please."
"on it," san got on his phone to send the pictures to mingi and the younger's phone lit up on his nightstand.
"now scram," mingi demanded.
they all left the room and mingi decided to fall back asleep.

hongjoong was still not awake when mingi woke up for the second time that afternoon so he shook the older slightly.
"joongie, c'mon wake up," mingi whispered.
the older wouldn't budge so the younger pulled the most cliché thing you could do, out of the book.
he moaned out, "hongjoong," and slurred out the vowels. hongjoong opened his eyes and red dusted his cheeks and nose. he lifted his head a little bit, their faces were so close together and mingi couldn't help but notice the freckles that sat upon the shorter's cheeks.
"you're adorable. did you know that?" hongjoong just let out a soft chuckle, "would you just like to stay here? we could watch a movie or whatever. it's already late in the afternoon."
"sounds good," mingi sat up and straddled the boy in his lap, "what're we watching?"
"you can choose, joongie."
"let's watch coraline!"
without hesitation, mingi pulled his laptop off of his nightstand and pulled up netflix. it took a few seconds to load but then he found the movie and turned it on.
mingi placed it on the end of the bed and put his hands back around hongjoong's waist.
-
they were about halfway through the movie but mingi didn't pay much attention to the "childish" film. he was just laying his head on hongjoong's shoulder as he held onto the older from behind.
it wasn't until hongjoong started saying the lines along with the movie that the younger looked at the screen instead of hongjoong.
"how do you know the lines so well?" mingi asked.
"i've seen this so many times. it's my favorite movie," hongjoong responded.
the younger just made a little 'mm' noise in response.
"mingi. i've been thinking and i have a question," hongjoong moved himself off of mingi's lap to face him.
"okay, go ahead."
"h-have you ever kissed anyone?"
"yeah, i have. why are you asking?"
"well, i've never kissed anyone and i was wondering what it was like. what is it like?"
"i couldn't exactly tell you. it depends who you're kissing. the people i've kissed weren't the right ones. it just didn't feel right."
"kiss me mingi."
mingi didn't waste a second and immediately connected his lips. he tilted his head to get better access to hongjoong's lips.
mingi was brought back to reality when hongjoong tapped his shoulder.
"h-have you?"
"yeah, i have. why're you asking?"
"well i've never kissed anyone and i was wondering what it was like," hongjoong said while playing with mingi's fingers.
"well it depends who you're kissing and if it feels right. i've never kissed someone and have it feel good, like it was just a kiss and nothing more."
mingi's heart raced, everything was just like his fantasy except for a few things. hongjoong was thinking the same thing, a blush rose on his cheeks as he thought about it once again.
"can you kiss me? i can't say i would be good or anything. wait- i don't even know if you like guys. oh my go-"
hongjoong's rambling was cut off by mingi's soft lips being pressed against his. the younger grabbed onto the older's hips and hongjoong wrapped his arms around mingi's shoulders.
it didn't last long, especially since the older didn't exactly know how to kiss.
for the first time, a kiss actually meant something to mingi. it felt right. everything felt right except for one thing but mingi would have to work his way up.
"hongjoong, i like you."
"i-i like you too."
"can i take you on a date in... two days. i will drive us just be ready by five in the afternoon."
"sounds perfect."
they went back to the position they were in before and finished watching the movie. everything was fine before but now everything felt right.
they fell asleep in each other's arms after a few more movies.

jongho came back late and found the two cuddled together, their faces were centimeters after.
he snapped a photo, the lighting wasn't terrible since there was a lamp still on, and sent to to the group chat.
after seeing everyone's responses to the adorable photo he closed mingi's laptop and set it on his nightstand. he got changed and turned off the light.
