16-under the umbrella that we share a firefly flies up into the air

"Kai-yah! Got all the books you need?"

"Yep, we can go now, but I think it's raining to hold the umbrella for us both, yeah?" Kai asked his Beomgyu hyung. "Of course, let's put the books in your bag first though." Kai nodded at Beomgyu's words and zipped it open, putting the books in, zipping his backpack back up and swinging it over his shoulder.

Beomgyu pushed the door open and opened up the dark chocolate coloured umbrella as he steps into the rain. "Come here." Beomgyu smilled at the younger before pulling him by the sleeve under the umbrella. It was already late, which meant that the warm golden coloured streetlights were shining. It had been about 2 years since the two had decided to study arts and literature in their universities together. One was more for the arts; drawing, sculpturing and painting and the other was more for the literature; book studies, writing, poetry. Beomgyu for the arts and Kai for the literature. 3 years ago they started dating. 1 year since they've moved in with each other. As the two walked along the river over the bridge, raindrops breaking into billion tiny glass like shards when they hit the ground, walking hand in hand, feeling each other's body warmth by such a small but firm touch. They're only a decimeter away from each others face. They stop walkig under a streetlamp. Kai can smell Beomgyu's favourite shampoo: salted caramel. Soft longish, chestnut coloured hair which he has been growing out again after about a year or two.

Beomgyu stares up at Kai, his lips being a pretty fig red with a soft gloss on them, Kai's hair was dyed back to blond two months ago after he wanted to try the look out again. The golden streetlights make it look like it's a bit caramel coloured. The air smells fresh and Beomgyu's shampoo scent surrounds them both. Beomgyu suddenly stops staring at the younger as he see a firefly fly between them. Now not even being able to hold back his words, "I want your lips connected with mine." "Heh, hyung," Kai puts his left hand ontop Beomgyu's hand which is holding the umbrella up. The other hand travelling up the older nape. Pulling him closer so he's only a few milimeters away from the other. "Under the umbrella that we share a firefly flies up into the night, fresh wet air. The lights shines just right on your beautiful face which is a piece of art itself. The firefly passes us by and you cannot hold back the words from crawling off your tongue, your tongue must have become lonely now. So let me give it some personal affection. My dear the wind has already guided enough droplets onto your lips yet they seem like they want some affection too. So how could I ever say no to you when you exist in all this grace?" Kai finally closes up the space between them and tenderly let their lips dance with each other, their tongues meeting, Kai embracing the older in whole as Beomgyu lets the younger do so, he embraces the other with his free arm. Securing him so he won't get out of reach in this dark yet lovely rainy night.
