"jeez, calm down, would you?" miwon said as she watched her friend jump in excitement.

"but miwon!" haerin started, "it's chenle we're talking about– i-i... i'm just too excited!"

miwon rolled her eyes, "oh shut it, it's not any different from your dreams."

"it's a big ass difference!" haerin huffed.

"it's not like you didn't kiss each other—"

"yah!" haerin immediately cuts her friends off. she felt her cheeks heating up as she fiddled with her fingers, "you didn't have to mention that."

miwon laughed, "exactly."

on the other hand, jisung was busy telling chenle what he should and not do when they meet up.

jaein crossed her arms, "don't even listen to anything he's blabbering about!"

chenle chuckled, "jeez, when will you two stop bickering?"

"are you nervous?" renjun tilts his head.

chenle curled his fingers, "k-kinda..."

"today's finally the day." chenle muttered as he stared at the date displayed on his apple watch.

"lele!" the girl shouted.

chenle couldn't help but cry as he ran towards her, engulfing her into a hug while the girl gladly hugged him back.

chenle chuckled and ran his fingers through her soft hair,

"i promise you didn't i?"

haerin smiled at the boy,

"you're crazy in love."

chenle kissed the top of her head, "only for you, haerin."

"chenle...?" haerin softly calls his name.

"143." she smiled.

"okay, cute. but can we stop the kissing? i'm getting hungry here?"

chenle broke the kiss and looked behind him, glaring at his taller friend.

"yah! park jisung!" chenle whined while haerin giggled and kissed the boy's cheek.

jisung looked at him innocently, "whaaat?" he drags his words.

"at least i said cute." he shrugs.

few seconds later, a hand comes smacking his head causing him to yelp in pain. "jaein!!!" he yelled.

"you're welcome." jaein said and pushed jisung towards the cafe.

"sorry about him, he's just salty that chenle finally has his own lover. rip to chenji." jaein snickered and literally dragged his boyfriend inside.

"and those are my friends..." chenle mumbled, rubbing his nape shyly.

"they seem like fun." haerin chuckled and gave him another kiss.

"mhm, told you, you two would kiss again."

the two flinched and turned the other way, now seeing miwon looking all smug and cocky.

haerin turned bright red, "miwonie!!"

"i guess she is my friend..." haerin also muttered, a bit embarrassed.

chenle laughed, "we have cool friends then."

"shall we go, my lady?" chenle questioned and leant haerin a hand which she gladly took.

"our actual dream starts here."

they both said as they interlocked their fingers together.
