The room was quiet. A little too quiet. Ever since the both of them started working, neither of them spoke a single word.
Organizing the books was boring enough and being under the same roof with the world's most intiminading man was topping it.

"Would you like some coffee?"

Lee's sudden question made Hansuk get a bit startled. He didn't excpect that.

"Oh- ... yes it would be nice."

Lee nodded, taking his leave out the room. Hansuk sighed in relief. Being beside him was like holding your breath under water for as long as you could. It was preassuring.

After a while when Lee came back with two cups of coffe he found Hansuk looking out the window.

"Do you want to go outside?"

Hansuk looked back at him and then shook his head.

"I was just looking at the roses... didn't know you'd take interest in such things..."

Lee laughed.

"So you're saying that i don't look like the gardening type."

As Hansuk slowly took the cup from his hands, he looked at the coffee inside. It was warm.
Meanwhile Lee was observing Hansuk's expression and suddenly got an intruiging idea.

"Well... i'm not saying that- it's just... you're a bit diffrent-"

Lee smirked as he leaned against his table.

"Oh... alright then. Tell me. What type am i?"

His smile was enough to make Hansuk get comftable yet uneasy enough to answer him back. He had a feeling that if he said something weird... it would result into something.

"You... uhm... i had a hunch that you were the presistent type. A person who... doesn't easily get ruled by others words... you're someone strong and capable, yet fragile on the inside. After all, we all have our human sides inside us..."

Judging from Lee's satisfied expression, he must've said okay stuff. But that kind of proved to be wrong when Lee suddenly grabbed Hansuk's coffee cup and placed them both the table.
He then came a tad bit closer.

"So i'm presistent, egoistic, emotionless yet... weak. Is that all?"

Hansuk's eyes widened, quick to refuse.

"What- no no- i didn't say that... you're not like that.."

Lee sighed, grabbing Hansuk's hand and intertwining their fingers.

"No... i'm shure you said those things. Words are words... no matter how sweet you try to make them, they all mean the same thing at the end. But i'm shure that you knew that already.."

Hansuk's eyes fell down on Lee's chest. He seemed a bit regretfull of telling him those things. In return, Lee leaned his back on the table again, but this time, pulling Hansuk closer by his hand.

"You only said the truth. And besides... it's too late to change it. So... tell me one more truth... Hansuk."

Hansuk's eyes widened upon hearing him call him by his name... that was new. And it sounded somehow diffrent in his ears.

"Did you really think i invited you here to gather some dumb books?"

His breath hitched as he averted his gaze. He couldn't believe it... so he tought so too.

"I...i'm not shure. Did you need something else?"

Lee's smile slowly faded down as he grabbed Hansuk's waist and pulled him closer until he was touching against his body.
