CHAPTER FIVE

soon, wednesday rolled around and both of the boys could not have been any less prepared for their friend date.

seungcheol had jisoo and seokmin seated on his bed as he tossed clothes from out of his closet. "okay what about this one?" he stood inside his bedroom shirtless, holding up a white t-shirt. "maybe this is too plain?"

the boy heaved a long sigh before going back to search through his pile of clothes that were scattered across the floor.

"I don't understand," seokmin shoved a chip into his mouth. "I thought you said you guys were going just as friends?"

his boyfriend giggled at how oblivious he was, "they're going as friends but our boy seungcheol happens to want to be more."

"exactly, now which shirt is better, my body is getting cold," jisoo stood up and picked up seungcheol's white shirt and handed it to him. "good good, now time for pants."

both seokmin and jisoo groaned at their indecisive friend.

meanwhile, jeonghan simply got dressed. he wore a plain white shirt with a red flannel tied around the waist of his black jeans.

once the artist was finished getting ready, he decided to walk to his roommates bedroom, "I'm coming in," he pushed the door open only to see soonyoung's floor covered with pieces of clothing.

bending down, he picked up a shirt with a small avocado in the corner, "this is my shirt, why is your room such a mess?"

as the shirtless soonyoung kept tossing shirts behind him, jeonghan plopped himself on his bed, "I mean we're going to the movies, with jihoon and I want to look good but suddenly everything that I thought made me look like a ten, makes me look like four with good lighting."

jeonghan rolled his eyes, he knew the crush soonyoung had developed on their smaller friend, but he was being a little dramatic, he always looks good.

"the white button down, it'll give off a seductive look," jeonghan nonchalantly commented while scrolling through his instagram. while soonyoung began to button his shirt, jeonghan's feed was boring as usual.

until he came across seungcheol's post, it was a mirror picture, before he knew it he was on his profile. he began to scroll through his posts. it was so HD and breathtaking, he watched films the boy had made and the pictures he had taken.

"so jeonghan, I heard you have a lover," soonyoung sprayed cologne on himself.

"Friend."

"jeonghannnn," soonyoung whined, he went and sat next to his friend. "did you turn him down? he's a really good guy, and he likes you. what's the problem?"

jeonghan knew that he wasn't the problem, it was himself. seungcheol has proven so far that he really is a good guy, and that he likes him. but all those feelings could change at any given moment and jeonghan did not want to go through that a second time.

"we're just friends, he said that would be okay, besides soonyoung we just met," jeonghan said.

the movie theater was packed.

thankfully the five boys had decided to show up an hour earlier. they were able to choose their seats before the theater began to fill up, diana must be popular.

"god this movie is going to be amazing," seungcheol was so excited.

"that's right, I forgot you're a comic nerd," jihoon snorted, he watched as his close friend excitedly fidgeted in his seat.

"you read comic books?" jeonghan chuckled.

"y-yeah-"

"no, he doesn't just read them, he has a whole collection of them, I'm telling you he could recite whole pages, with sound effects," jeonghan watched as seungcheol embarrassingly giggled, he blushed at jihoon's true statement.

he's a comic reader, cute. jeonghan thought to himself. as the other theee carried on a conversation about who their favorite superhero was, seungcheol admired jeonghan.

"you look really nice," jeonghan did, at least to seungcheol.

"I know," he playfully flipped his hair.

"conceited are we?"

"the movies starting, shhh," he placed a hand over seungcheol's mouth, not even realizing that the sudden contact gave the older boy a slightly big problem.

"j-jihoon, give me this," he took the popcorn and placed it on top of his problem, "damn jisoo for choosing these jeans," he shoved a handful of popcorn into his mouth.

as soon as the movie started, seungcheol was silently squealing. the more excited he got, the more jeonghan began to adore his inner geek.

he leaned the popcorn over jeonghan, the tip of the blonde's mouth rose a bit as his hand scooped some out of the bucket. the five boys watched in awe as the warrior princess completely kicked ass.

unfortunately, the movie came to an end. the boys exited the movie theater and were now standing outside, the red light from the sign illuminating their bodies.

"we're going back jeonghan, are-"

"actually, jeonghan is gonna ride with me, see you back at the dorms?" seungcheol took the youngers hand and dragged him away, jeonghan's mind was spinning at the sudden contact.

as soon as he shoved him in the car, they were off. but jeonghan soon noticed that they were not headed towards campus.

"where are you taking me?"

the ends of seungcheol's mouth slowly rose up as he did not answer jeonghan.
