Wooyoung walked along the street with a smile. It was an ordinary weekday. He had to go to university, the weather was overcast as usual and the sun hadn't shown its face for days. And yet, Wooyoung felt like he was in heaven. He looked to his left and glanced at the person walking next to him. The person holding his hand. The person who had slightly flushed cheeks and whose eyelashes shone in the light.

"Are you okay?" San asked, after he had caught Wooyoung staring again. Wooyoung couldn't hide his grin and turned to the side. "I'm just happy that we're finally together." San stopped and squeezed his hand lightly. "I know, I know," Wooyoung mumbled, now that he was able to place San's gaze accurately. "We're taking it slow," he added. He knew that San still needed time to trust him completely, but Wooyoung would do anything to show him that he was the one for him.

San nudged Wooyoung when he noticed his thoughtful look. "Hey, I'm glad we're finally together too," he added to cheer Wooyoung up. Wooyoung smiled again. "I have a present for you, by the way." San's soft eyes widened slightly and his eyebrows peeked out from under his beanie. "I'll give it to you later." Wooyoung teased him and started to giggle. With a tug, he pulled San along. "Now come on or you'll be late for work." San shook his head in amusement as Wooyoung pulled him across the street.

They only came to a halt in front of the café. Wooyoung wanted to let go of San's hand and say goodbye to him, but San had other plans and pulled Wooyoung into the café with him. Surprised, Wooyoung looked at their still intertwined fingers as San pulled him towards the counter. The few customers sitting in the café and looking at them didn't even matter.

Behind the counter stood a guy with short dark hair and the friendliest smile Wooyoung had ever seen. He looked questioningly at San, who pointed at the strange guy who was now looking at them both attentively. "Let me introduce you," San began. "My best friend Seonghwa."

Wooyoung remembered how San had mentioned him when he had talked about how they had opened the café together. Seonghwa held out his hand to Wooyoung. "Nice to finally meet you Wooyoung," he said and his eyes, which were already shining, lit up a little more.

"You know my name?" Wooyoung asked, puzzled, and glanced at San. Seonghwa shrugged with a smile and smoothed his apron. "Well, as often as you were here, it was unavoidable not to know your name. Besides, San talks about you all the time." Wooyoung's heart skipped a beat. San looked at Seonghwa admonishingly.

"Anyway, now you've met, you can go," San said in a sweet tone and wanted to push Wooyoung away, but Wooyoung stayed put. "And what does he always talk about?" he asked in Seonghwa's direction with a sly grin. San gave Seonghwa a deadly look. "I think I'd better be quiet now," Seonghwa said, overwhelmed.

Wooyoung leaned back and made a pout. "How boring." he muttered. San looked from Seonghwa to Wooyoung and poked him in the side. Wooyoung squeaked and took a step to the side. He wobbled and lost his balance, but San grabbed his arm at the right moment and pulled him back.

Wooyoung drew in a sharp breath as his face stopped right in front of San's face. His eyes sank into San's gaze and a flash went through him as he realized once again how much he liked San. Seonghwa, who had been watching the whole scenario, turned away with a grin, unable to look at their amorous looks any longer.

Wooyoung swallowed and felt powerless to get away from San. The corners of San's mouth lifted slightly and the dimples that enchanted Wooyoung appeared. Wooyoung's knees went weak. San seemed to feel the same, because suddenly he leaned forward and in the blink of an eye, Wooyoung felt San's lips on his.

It was so fleeting that Wooyoung briefly thought he had imagined it, but the slight blush on San's cheeks told him otherwise. Had San really just kissed him? Here in front of everyone?

Wooyoung looked around in shock, but no one was interested in the two of them. He looked back at San. "What was that?" he whispered, his stomach tingling just like when he had kissed him for the first time. "Just a goodbye kiss." San smiled mischievously and let go of Wooyoung. Wooyoung looked at the man in front of him, speechless. San seemed to be able to drive him out of his mind every new day, whether in a positive or negative way.

Mingi jumped along the sidewalk. If today were a normal day, he would try to hide his joy, but everything was different. He would have loved to skip every second until the afternoon and run to Yunho's building to see him again.

He hated to admit it but since their date, he was so obsessed with Yunho that he was afraid of himself. Not even with Hongjoong had he taken such an intense interest in someone. And every minute he had to think of a tall, brown-haired man who resembled a puppy.

"What's up?" a voice suddenly asked out of nowhere and Mingi flinched and stopped. "Wooyoung, stop scaring me like that," he grumbled immediately. It was only then that he noticed Wooyoung beaming at him. He seemed almost happier than he was and it was creepy.

"Has something happened?" he asked skeptically, because the last time he had seen Wooyoung, he had looked more like a dead man than a human. And now he was standing in front of him, more alive than ever. Wooyoung crossed his arms. "I could ask you the same thing. You were jumping around like a little kid." Mingi rolled his eyes but at the same time was glad that Wooyoung was back to being himself and annoying him again.

"Where is Yeosang, I haven't seen him for days," Wooyoung suddenly remarked. Mingi shrugged his shoulders as he had no idea himself, but he could well imagine where the blond-haired man was.

Jongho frantically grabbed his books and stuffed them into his backpack. Today, of all days, he had to oversleep. He was lucky that his mother had checked on him after yesterday's conversation, otherwise he would probably have slept until noon and missed his exam.

With disheveled hair and crumpled clothes, he ran down the stairs and grabbed his shoes. "Jongho." he heard a female voice behind him. He sighed loudly as he put on his second shoe. He had neither the nerves nor the time to argue with Lia.

He jumped up from the step in the hallway and reached for his backpack. He only gave Lia a cursory glance and was about to leave, but Lia stopped him. "Wait, I've made you breakfast." She pressed a brown bag into his hand. Jongho looked at her skeptically. Had she poisoned the food?

Lia smiled slightly. Jongho didn't have time to think about what his sister was up to again and disappeared from the house.

Totally exhausted, Jongho left the university building. Although he felt good about his exam, every muscle in his body ached and he desperately needed to sleep.

He was walking along the path, lost in thought, when someone came towards him. His light blonde hair shone out at him from afar. He wore a black fluffy jacket and smiled so broadly that it warmed Jongho's whole body.

Yeosang looked at him, then stopped in front of him. His lips were shiny and immediately caught Jongho's eye. "How was the exam?" he asked. Jongho was surprised that he even remembered that he had had an exam today. Instead of giving him a normal answer, he took a step forward and connected their lips.

He felt Yeosang smile into the kiss. All the energy that had previously drained from his body returned and his whole body tingled with excitement.

They pulled away again and Yeosang looked at him so lovingly that Jongho forgot everything around them. "Our professor is sick, so I have the rest of the day off. What about you?" Yeosang's voice sounded so gentle and sweet that Jongho found it difficult to say his next words. "I'd love to do something with you, but I'm pretty exhausted," he admitted. If he wasn't totally exhausted, he would have spent the last of his energy on Yeosang, but he really felt like half a zombie.

Yeosang eyed him slightly and Jongho was afraid he would be disappointed. "Then how about you come to my room and we..." he searched for the right words. "We'll just rest." Jongho tilted his head. "We can watch something, or cuddle, or just sleep."

Jongho blinked a few times. "Only if you want to. We can also meet tomorrow or another day." Jongho didn't understand how a person could be so cute. He reached out and cupped Yeosang's face. "You're so fucking adorable." he exclaimed.

"Was that a yes?" Yeosang asked, his big brown eyes looking at Jongho waitingly. "Definitely," Jongho agreed. "Let's go." He grabbed Yeosang's hand and they started walking.

Yeosang was becoming more important to him every day and he was already one of the most important people in the world to him, even if they hadn't known each other for long...
