so he said.

032

There lights were closed as Jae walked down the hallway, his destination clear in his mind. Without thinking, he went to the window, staring at the roof that he always sat on when he wanted fresh air, or just to stare at the stairs. He opened the window, crawling out slowly. He crawled further down carefully, when he saw a shadow of a boy laying down, headphones plugged in, resting his head on his arms, facing the sky.

Jae's eyes lit up, as he slowly crawled to the shadow, laying down next to the shadow. I found him, he thought in his head. He finally found Younghyun. He looked at Younghyun as if he was the most precious thing. Younghyun had his eyes closed, with headphones plugged in. not much was visible because of the dark night.
Jae laid down right next to him, grabbing one of the earphones and plugging it into his own ear. Younghyun's eyes flew open, glancing to his left and seeing Jae's small figure. His mouth curled into a small smile, as Jae stared at the sky. The lyrics were smoothly being sung into his ear. Jae closed his eyes, letting in sink in. He positioned his head on Younghyun's hand.

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you~

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you~

"Don't blame yourself." Jae said, his eyes still closed when he heard Younghyun chuckle. "Don't blame myself for something that was my fault?"
Jae shook his head. "It wasn't your fault. Shut up, you bimbo head. You didn't do anything wrong." Jae said, snuggling up closer to Younghyun.

"Why are you being so nice and cuddly right now?" Younghyun questioned, causing Jae to sigh. Jae lifted his head up, his face inches away from Younghyun's. Younghyun's eyes opened, making eye contact with Jae. Jae noticed his eyes were a bit watery.

"Is that a crime? Can't I be nice to you?" Jae questioned, tilting his head a bit. Younghyun scoffed, rolling his eyes playfully. "You cant be nice, though. Or loving. You never show how you're feeling."
Jae laughed, his face just the slightest bit closer. "Wanna bet?" Younghyun raised an eyebrow. "What? Are you going to show me how you feel right now?"
"Yes." Jae sternly said, causing Younghyun to scoff. "I'm not in the mood to get slapped right now, honey."

Jae rolled his eyes. "I'm not going to slap you, idiot." Younghyun squinted.
"Then what.."
Younghyun was lost in his thoughts, not noticing that Jae was leaning closer. And before he could think,

Jae connected his lips to Younghyun's.
