the two walk through the automatic moving sliding doors, finally making it inside the mall. they head straight to the food court, talking to each other whilst they made their way there. mingyu surprisingly found seungkwan easy to talk to; he was smooth with his words and extremely friendly, putting aside all of the horrible things he's done. he realized that was one of his charming qualities by how amiable he was by the words that left his lips.

surely enough, they make it to the cinnamon bun shop, and wait to the side; the two stood not a far distance apart. mingyu just stared and stared at the shop, waiting excitedly for his cinnamon, till he noticed seungkwan looking off into the distance. he glanced at the male below him, questioning genuinely; "what are you looking at?"

seungkwan flinched by the sudden sentence he heard from behind, he was dozing off before this. "oh-- sorry, i was just thinking of going into there." he murmured, pointing towards the store he had been gazing at. mingyu got a glimpse of the store seungkwan had been eyeing. it was a fragrance store. "we can go there if you like, we have time."

"nah its okay."

"you sure?"

"yeah."

"you sure?"

"yeah..."

"you sure--"

"oh my GOD, mingyu.  if it makes you shut up then we can go there after." seungkwan hissed as he side eyed the persistent male that he found obnoxious.

mingyu let out a soft chuckle, and nodded, happy to finally get seungkwans agreement.
they collected mingyu's cinnamon bun, and went straight towards the fragrance store.

once they had made it inside, mingyu was hit by the smell of chemicals and manufactured perfume. he glanced towards the other; seungkwan acted unbothered and seemed to be used to the strong fragrance. the scent of the store was insanely pungent, he extremely disliked getting constantly hit in the face with such a forceful odor, but he knew he had to stay in here with seungkwan, who knows for how long. mingyu prayed it be a short trip.

seungkwan on the other hand was looking around intently, he seemed to be looking for something in particular. then, luckily, met eyes with the product he was looking for, his face instantly lighting up. he hurried his way there since there was only one left. "mingyu, can you get some wipes over there at the counter, i want to test this out but i have cologne on me." seungkwan asked, looking up at him with a pleaded look.

"oh yeah sure, one second."

mingyu left for the wipes, whilst seungkwan stared at the perfume with a thrilled look. he held the sample perfume in his hands, and smelt it by the spray, dislike the other fragrances in the store; this one smelt floral and sweet, not extremely fake and chemical-y. he nibbled his lip, thinking attentively. i don't know if i should get this, it's a girl perfume, but i don't know... what if i get judged? hm maybe i should get it another time-

"well? are you going to try it?"

seungkwan jumped at the sudden voice behind him, his afraid gaze softened realizing it was mingyu. he sighed softly, and dazed back at the perfume. "i don't know. i am not sure if it'd smell good on me.." he mumbled, but loud enough for mingyu to hear him.

"yeah you'll never know if it'd smell good on you if you just continue to stare at it." mingyu scoffed, taking the sample perfume out of his hands.

"what are you doing?" seungkwan questioned with crossed arms. he glared at the other with furrowed eyebrows.

"helping you put on this stupid perfume." he explained, seeing seungkwan take a step back. "what? if you're not gonna try it on and just stare at it, then we won't be able to get out of here." he groaned.

seungkwan huffed and rolled his eyes, ticked off by how impatient he was. "okay, fine. whatever, just do it then." he mumbled, standing there with crossed arms.

he wiped off the cologne of seungkwans neck, in all honesty, he did all this just to get out of this store; the scent of the fragrances had overwhelmed him. once he finished wiping his neck, he sprit the perfume onto his neck and fanned it out with his hand. "here, hold this for a moment will you." tossing over the perfume seungkwan previously held.

seungkwan held onto the bottle, and suddenly felt mingyu place his hand on the other side of his neck. shocked, he shivered as his cold hand had coated the entire side of his neck. he couldn't feel it, but his ears were bright red. his heart beat uncontrollably, he hitched his breath and kept nibbling his lips anxiously. he avoided eye contact with him so that he wouldn't blurt out something stupid. however, despite him avoiding his gaze, by the corner of his eye he could see mingyu leaning in to smell his neck. he couldn't speak a word. every single bone and nerve had frozen up inside. seungkwan closed his eyes tightly and inhaled deeply, not exhaling until he felt mingyu back away.

thankfully for seungkwan, mingyu never took notice of seungkwans nervous actions. he pulled seungkwan closer to him, and got a smell, it being very floral like and sweet but not in a sickening way, mingyu loved the smell of it. he couldn't put into words how captivating that perfume was, his eyes brightened by it; he truly loved the scent of it.

"well? how is it?" seungkwan finally let out a breathe and spoke.

mingyu had let go of the other and nodded intently with a very pure look on his face. "buy it now, it's smells really good; i don't know what's another word for it, but it's very captivating."

"captivating..?" seungkwan grumbled with a baffled look.

"ah, i'm intoxicated by you."
