With U // YunGi

Weird Date

Jongho keyed in the password on his electronic door lock of his penthouse apartment. He had just got off work, leaving at five on the dot like usual because he was the successor of Nebula Group and one of the high-ranked directors and he could do anything he wanted.

The first scene that welcomed him was Yunho, sprawled on the couch, scrolling something on his phone.

Yunho rolled onto his belly when he heard the door open. "Oh, Jongho, you're back already?" He switched off his phone, not wanting to let the younger find out he was looking for part-time jobs.

Jongho raised an eyebrow and glanced at the clock. "Don't you have a date tonight or something?"

Yunho rolled off the couch when he saw the time. "I'm gonna be late! Can you drive me to With U? That's where Mingi will pick me up. Pleaseee, you're the best!"

"Dress and be ready in five minutes." Jongho sighed and picked his coat back up, pretending to be annoyed but was in fact looking forward for an excuse to go back to that place so he could see Yeosang again. "I'll drive you."

"Thanks!" Yunho ran to Jongho and gave him a hug, only to be pushed away by the small yet strong man.

"Hurry up, or you'll actually be late." Jongho pushed him towards the bedroom and laughed when he almost tripped.

This was how they were - even though Jongho hired Yunho as a boyfriend, they always acted like a pair a brothers more than anything.

The common area in With U was buzzing with activity even though half an hour had passed since their closing time. A group of friends had visited earlier, and they were still choosing which boyfriend to rent, not to mention all the contracts they had to sign.

Hongjoong and Seonghwa, being the owners, were the only ones who could create an agreement between renters and boyfriends. They had to meet one pair at a time, to talk through their choices and whether they accept each other's requirements.

At the time, the only other workers left were Wooyoung and Yeosang. With the sudden influx of customers, they were busier than ever, hurrying around the building to help grab this and that, serve coffee and tea, and clean up the areas that were left messy after each renter-boyfriend hang out.

In the midst of it all, Mingi was pacing back and forth, checking his watch more frequently than necessary. There was barely thirty minutes left before six, the appointed time for his "date" with Subin, yet Yunho was no where to be seen.

Two days ago, Mingi had asked Yunho to accompany him on his  date with Subin on Tuesday night. He was hoping that bringing a  boyfriend would help call off the arranged marriage and stop his  parents' meager attempts to pair them up once and for all.

Indeed, he felt a little sorry for Subin, but they barely knew each other and he couldn't care less at the moment. The only reason why he didn't want to be late was because of his father. One wrong step, and who knew what would happen to his job?

When Mingi's phone buzzed, he almost jumped out of his skin from being so on-edge all along.

Yunho
i'm 5 mins from with u. wait for me in ur car by the driveway =)

Mingi shouted a quick goodbye to Wooyoung, who was struggling with a pile of dirty coffee cups in the kitchen. He almost ran into Yeosang on the way to the entrance, and almost toppled over the coat rack when he tried to find his overcoat that was hidden way underneath.

His shoelaces were still lose when he climbed in front of the wheel of his BMW, panting.

By the time he drove out of the parking lot, Yunho was already waiting at the sidewalk.
