I Never Stopped Loving You | JEONGCHEOL

Something about you.

Seungcheol stood outside closed door of Jeonghan's apartment. He placed a hand on his flat stomach to calm the butterflies.
He'd decided that he'd be as normal as possible around Jeonghan and wouldn't do anything that could confuse either of them.
I need to earn his trust if I ever want us to be together. And this time I won't let either of us screw it up.

He took a deep breath and rang the doorbell.
After a few seconds it opened with Seungkwan appearing from behind it.

He smiled when he saw Seungcheol hugged him as soon as he came inside.

"Hyung!! I thought you wouldn't come."

"Why would you think that... I said I'd be here."

"Because you're late. And overdressed." Vernon chimed in from the dining table. He was peeling what looked like boiled potatoes.

Seungcheol looked at his casual jeans and denim shirt and then looked at Seungkwan and Vernon in their sweats.
He shrugged.

"Ohh I just couldn't pick which wine to buy.... So I just got a lot of beers" Seungcheol said raising his hand which held polythene bag filled with cans.

"Ohh nono I'm not drinking after yesterday. I'm in trauma." Vernon gasped.

"No shit Sherlock... But some of us were sober that day and would like to drink since tomorrow's a Sunday. Right Kwannie?"

"Totally hyung."

"Anyway how was your interview yesterday?"

"What kind of question is that? Have you never given an interview before. You never know how it goes hyungie." Seungkwan said flicking Seungcheol's forehead.

"Owww... I've given interviews."

"Yeah but now he's started to forget what that feels like cz now he takes interviews not gives them." Vernon snickered.

Seungkwan whisteled "you're living the life hyung." The boys chuckled.

"Can I just say it's not as fun as it looks like."

"Yeah we believe you.... Or rather your dark circles."

Seungcheol instinctively touched his eyes. He has been having trouble sleeping but last night, he kept thinking about Jeonghan and lost all the sleep.

"Yeah.... Whatever it takes you two believe. Anyway where should I keep these cans?"

"Refrigerator I guess.... It's gonna take a while for food to get ready. It's in the kitchen."

Seungcheol entered the kitchen and found a guy in apron kneading dough.

"Hey hi I'm Seungcheol, Hansol's brother. I don't believe we have met." Seungcheol said raising his hand for a handshake when the guy turned and Seungcheol yelped.

"What the fuck Jeonghan?? You cut your hair???"

"Yeah I was planning on it ever since I applied for the promotion." Jeonghan said continuing what he was doing.

"What has your hair got to do with your promotion?? Ommo your silky long hair...." Seungcheol let the beer bag fall to the ground and moved to touch Jeonghan's hair.

Jeonghan stiffened but Seungcheol kept caressing his hair.

"I... Uh.... I just promised myself I'd get a makeover if get promoted.... I guess haircut counts as makeover." He said curtly.

"What happened?" Hansol asked who was followed by Seungkwan.
They had heard Seungcheol's yelp and came to the kitchen.

"This happened." Seungcheol said pointing towards Jeonghan's hair.
