SOMEHOW - TAEGYU ??

nine: ice prince

Beomgyu steps into the parlour and all a sudden, all eyes are on him, well, not all but the girls. They're gawking at him as if Beomgyu's a piece of meat and Beomgyu scratches the back of his head and smiles shyly at them. It isn't the first time he's gotten such reactions, but he still feels weird about it, and it all happened after he discovered he was gay.

But it doesn't seem like it'll stop anytime soon, especially since Beomgyu hasn't come out yet.

Beomgyu's eyes wonder around the parlour and finds a table for himself to sit. Beomgyu isn't the approaching type much, because he's actually shy, so he thought that if he wanted to approach Taehyun in a way, he's got to do it his shy ass way;

Which is to wait for Taehyun to notice him.

And to do so, Beomgyu's decided to come over the parlour with his laptop and continue writing his 抖阴社区 story there. Not only is he hoping for Taehyun to notice him, but he also hopes he'll get some inspirations or ideas if his crush is in his view.

As in on cue, Taehyun walks out from the staff room, hair styled in an undercut and his fingers playing with the strings of the apron as he ties it them behind him.

Beomgyu can't help but flush at the sight of the younger. Good thing no one's here with him, or it'd be obvious. Everytime Beomgyu's near Taehyun, he can't help but feel the electrifying rush of adrenaline in his veins, the heat rising to his ears, his cheeks tinting red and his heart beating rapidly as if it'll combust.

He's never experienced such extremes with his previous relationships, but Taehyun seems to have that kind of effect on him. It all feels so foreign to Beomgyu;

But in a lovely way.

Beomgyu leaves his stuff at the table and walks towards the counter. Taehyun's setting up the coffee machine, not noticing Beomgyu waiting at the counter.

Taehyun senses an intense gaze on him and turns to see Beomgyu waiting.

"Oh, sorry." Taehyun quickly attends Beomgyu who only smiles at the younger.

"Hi." Beomgyu says, trying to get Taehyun to look at him, which he does.

Taehyun shoots him a perplexed expression. "Umm... hi to you too. What can I get for you?" Taehyun asks.

"What's your favourite ice cream?" Beomgyu asks.

Taehyun looks at the latter in disbelief and then scoffs. "Didn't you ask the same thing the first time you were here?" Taehyun asks.

Beomgyu glances at him with eyes wide, half shocked, half bliss.

'He remembers????' Beomgyu thought, calming his inner happiness.

Beomgyu scratches the back of his head and plasters a shy faint smile. "You remember?" He asks.

Taehyun, still expressionless, nods. "You made quite a first impression."

Welp, clearly he doesn't remember their first encounter.

Beomgyu chuckles. "Then what's your second favourite ice cream?" Beomgyu asks.

"Are you really going to order just like that?"

"Like what?"

"I-" Taehyun lets out a sigh in annoyance that Beomgyu finds amusing. "You're not going to even look through the flavours or anything??"

"You're the only flavour I want." Beomgyu mumbles.

"Pardon??"

Beomgyu shook his head. "I'll just take your second favourite."
