❝ hyunjin you look tired— ❞
minho stopped as he felt hyunjin hugging him, the younger's weight almost pressing him down but he hugged back trying to lift him up so both of them would keep their balance and he ran his fingers on the back of the younger's hair, the scent of alcohol now poisoning hyunjin's scent as usual.

minho sighed as he helped hyunjin towards the room and dressed him up for the younger was barely awake. he pulled on the covers over them and faced his back on him. minho could hear his phone dinging and he reached out to reply to hyunjae who was texting him as usual, he smiled through the conversation, his mood clearly lifted up to which hyunjin noticed as he glanced at him. hyunjin was curious of why minho would be texting someone whenever he would arrive back late at night and the older would look happy and giddy. the thought left a bitter taste in hyunjin's tongue making the alcohol sting on his taste buds, his heart now sinking of anxiety that minho won't probably need him anymore and decide to leave him now that their time was running out.

minho's eyes widened a little feeling hyunjin hug him from behind, the younger now burying his face on the older's neck, engulfing the scent of strawberries and vanilla he loved too much. minho smiled and placed his phone back on the tabletop, missing the way hyunjin would hold him and just his presence alone that made him feel at home and safe, but to which he doesn't notice, hyunjin was crying of his fear of the day they would leave each other and minho falling out of love to find another someday. 

❝ things will get better soon minho, while time till that passes you have me anyway. ❞
hyunjae said as he leaned on the kitchen island, watching minho take out some berry muffins from the oven.
❝ it's just unsettling how hyunjin and i haven't spoken to each other in a while, much more he rarely comes home and when he does he's drunk! ❞
minho sighed and placed the pan down, taking off his oven mitts before putting one on a plate and giving it to hyunjae who accepted it with a bright smile.
❝ this is amazing! you should start selling these. ❞
hyunjae said as he took in another bite of the muffin and minho just chuckled.

❝ if i was your boyfriend i'd treat you better. ❞
minho's expression softened, seeing hyunjae look at the muffin with unreadable eyes. minho nonetheless just smiled and shook his head.
❝ that'd be funny, besides you deserve someone better and hyunjin and i don't really have a label to our relationship. ❞
minho said as he cleaned up the table.
❝ deserve someone better? man these muffins alone already is a big yes to me! ❞
hyunjae said but minho just rolled his eyes.
❝ you can stop trying to flatter me now, i'll bake you as many sweets as you'd like till you have diabetes. ❞

❝ well i don't mind. ❞
hyunjae said and laughed before finishing up the muffin.
minho smiled and walked towards the giant window to close the curtains, sighting the night sky now falling onto the beach and sand. he went back to hyunjae and sat beside him on the kitchen island.
❝ so how long will your break here last? your work is pretty heavy. ❞
minho asked and hyunjae pursed his lips, setting another muffin down.
❝ i don't know, but i don't think i'm ready to go back yet, besides i'm really liking the time i spend here with you. unless you decide to go back to the city, we can go together, you mentioned you didn't have a job anymore so i was wondering if you would like to work in my company as a model with soojin since you two were supposed to be dating. ❞
hyunjae looked at him.

minho laughed a bit causing the older's heart to flutter.
❝ if i get one more modeling offer i swear i'd explode, i-i'll.... i'll think about it. ❞
minho said softly making hyunjae smile and give him his business card.
❝ please think about it well, i'd like to work with you. ❞
hyunjae smiled and minho smiled back brightly at him before placing the business card in his pocket. minho stopped in his place for a while seeing hyunjae staring at him like that, the same look hyunjin would give him when they first met. minho's heart sunk in a little, he missed it when hyunjin would look at him like that.
