[1.46pm]

yeonjun: he’s been in what

liltaehyun: love if i read that correctly

yeonjun: oh thank u mr kang so helpful

               but

liltaehyun: yw

                  but what hyung?

yeonjun: is it selfish to say i wish i was his first love like he’s mine

               i mean if he returned feelings and all

liltaehyun: how can you possibly know that you're not his first love.

                  yeonjun hyung i love you but you must know how selectively oblivious you’re being

yeonjun:

liltaehyun: you can’t ever know someone else’s true feelings

                  thats hope for a lot of people

                  love and relationships are all about taking risks

                  you can never truly know if someone likes u back, until you ask

                  don’t let go of that

yeonjun: what if risks are too scary? 

               what if they have too many consequences?

liltaehyun: sometimes you just have to take the jump, hyung

                  sometimes you have to allow urself to admit ur feelings

                  sometimes you have to be open to the possibility of heartbreak

yeonjun: damn ur fans are called solomons for a reason hyunnie

               ur hella wise

liltaehyun: yeah sometimes i wish i could take my own advice

yeonjun: ?

               ur advice with who :/

               you're always here for me taehyun i wanna be here back

liltaehyun: nevermind

yeonjun: if you’re sure

               i'm not gonna push if you don't wanna talk abt it

liltaehyun: yeah um hope that helped

yeonjun: i should probably reply to him

waengmachine: it’s nothing kai

                          just taehyun making it excessively clear that we’re friends

                          don’t worry about it

hueningkai-yeo: all of u are just so obtuse

waengmachine: but it IS more complicated than u make it out to be hyuka

hueningkai-yeo: maybe

                             or maybe it’s more simple than all of you are considering

waengmachine: i guess

                            the thing is

                            you can’t push for when relationship happens

                            or for when people need to talk to each other

                            or work up the courage cause it is actually so daunting

                            its better if those people both at that time actually WANT something

                            that’s the difference hyuka

                            thats why acting on crushes is more complicated

hueningkai-yeo: ok hyung

                            i understand a bit more

                            but still i just want everyone to be happy

                            i don’t like all the pain and pining

waengmachine: you said it best yourself

                          we’re all just idiots in

                          um

                          supreme like

                              even when i just wake up and stuff like that?

                              and told me i was a good leader

                              n i’m always nervous i’m not doing this right

                              he just

                              reassured me

                              and he

                              he said he cared about me?

basketballmaster: uh ok, um

                              he makes me feel all soft and fuzzy

                              like all the hard things or troubles are just blurred

                              like all the weight and pressure just lifts

                              like my mistakes don’t matter around him

                              his hair is so soft even though he dyes it eight times a week

                              and he comes to me first every time and says “bin do you like it?”

                              he looks so nervous and i just want to kiss the worry off his face

                              and when he dances he’s so beautiful

                              so cool and collected even though i compliment him and he’s suddenly shy

                              he looks after me when i’m tired or drained

                              he makes me feel like i’m not homesick

                              he makes me feel light

                              he makes me feel warm in my chest

                              kind of like when it's sunny

                              yeah it feels like

                              sun rays

                              what’re you gonna do about it?

guitaricon: i’m just gonna shake the utter irony of this convo off

                  i mean unlike *certain* people i’m thinking of idk

                  telling him

                  i am 98% sure it will not end good for me

                  but i have been recently witnessing a fine bit of dumbassery by clears throat SOME UNNAMED people

                  and i don’t want it to get too complicated or idk

                  i’m thinking about it

                  hopefully hyun will let me down easy :/

basketballmaster: i think you should confess!!

guitaricon: ok great thank you for that input

                  now reread that last sentence and tell UR OWN BRAIN that

basketballmaster: advising ur friends and urself are two different things >:[

                              coaches dont play in the game, gyu

guitaricon: COACHES DONT PLAY IN THE

                   right, listen here soobin

soobin added junieee and ningning

[1.21pm]

ningning: ok i am afraid what is this chat for

soobin: so do you all know about taegyu being #inlove then?

junieee: KJHFJHAKJHFAKHFLAKJHF

              um

              well i suspected them very supremely

soobin: so taehyun likes him back?

junieee: r u kidding he is s o obvious

ningning: i cannot believe this is happening rn

                genuinely no thoughts

                head = empty

                i guess i might as well

ningning changed the group name to shooters 4 taegyu

junieee: cool name

             are they like together? or

ningning: thisisnothappeningagainiamnotinagroupchatwiththesetwoidiotsaboutmyothertwoidiots

junieee: i can't be bothered to decipher that but yes <3

ningning: that was the point smh

soobin: they aren't together yet

             this was more a gathering 

              to evaluate this information which

              is BRAND NEW to me

              why did no one tell me :’’((

junieee: aww soobinnie i just didn’t know for sure

              of course i would’ve told u

soobin: oh thank you hyung >.<

             i KNOW hyuka wouldn’t have told me so he gets put on cleaning up duty for the next two weeks

ningning: HUH

                WHAT NO

                HYUNGGGGG

soobin: anyways i was thinking we could like

             give beom an opening?

             to confess?

junieee: we could do like truth or dare?

ningning: oh my godjdahlsjfh

                 ah maybe not

                 in my findings, no matter HOW obvious, it still doesn’t work

soobin: ur findings?

mychildkai: oh yeah

                    any other confession ideas

junieee: hmmmm

              we could just try to

              idk

              have like a conversation on main and see what comes of it?

ningning: ah the tried and true method

soobin: why are you talking like a wise old man

ningning: uh because i am one

                 i am the wisest in this particular subject

                 i feel like joey

junieee: joey?

ningning: in The One Where Everyone Finds Out or smth

                 like

                 can y’all just TELL each other please?

soobin: nothing of what you just said makes sense

             but okay

             any other ideas?

junieee: have you checked with beom that we can do this?

soobin: …..

             technically or not technically? 

junieee: soobinnieeee

              have you told him what we’re doing

soobin: TECHNICALLY no but NON-TECHNICALLY he needs the push 

junieee: why’d i just get deja vu lol

              this feels like a conversation i’ve had before somehow

soobin: also if taehyun confesses instead then i dont have to

junieee: have to what? 

soobin: uh

             do this dare

ningning: you know that picture of the little girl crying with a peace sign whilst a house burns in the background?

                 thats me rn

junieee: kai u seem to be really going through it atm

ningning: thats cause i AM

soobin: so are we just gonna do the conversation thing?

junieee: yeah sounds good 

              we’ll just see what happens ig

              ur so sneaky binnie 

soobin: ahh hyung if they aren’t going to pull themselves together then i guess i should

             i’m sure ur sneakier ;)

ningning: i cannot believe i am reading these attempts at flirting with my own reason

                WHY am i not jared, 19

                “if they aren’t gonna pull themselves together”

                 *scratches head*

                 *places down uno reverse card*

                 *whispers “just saying” and slinks away*

soobin: hueningkai are u sugar high again.

junieee: did sum1 steal molang or smth??

              r u ok??

ningning: you know what i am FINE

yeonjun stares at his phone in dull shock, the music in the practice room fades away as his vision tunnels into his phone, into that singular message. wrong, fact, yeonjun, i’m in love with you.

yeonjun, i’m in love with you.

his name is yeonjun right?

his heart lurches into his throat and he forces himself to stop shaking, soobin this is soobin, the person he’s been in love with for a year, confessing to him. his heart rate speeds and the room seems so much hotter and he can barely breathe because soobin is in love with him too. soobin is in love with him too.

his shaky fingers click his phone back on from where it had turned off, click onto the group chat and in a moment of bravery within all of his fear, he types out, soobin i’m in love with you too,  and clicks send.

Chapter Text

tomorrow by tudurow

[5.41pm]

soobestleader: yeonjun, i’m in love with you

yeonjunie: soobin i’m in love with you too

 

the text sends and yeonjun’s heart is thumping wildly, his brain working in overdrive and imagining the worst reactions possible.

what if this is all some elaborate joke

soobin could never like you back 

you’ve made a mistake this is a mistake a mistake a-

 

soobestleader: hyung where are you

yeonjunie: the dance studio

soobestleader: wait there

 

yeonjun drags a hand over his face and tampers down the smile that threatens to break out, because his body is thrumming with something that vaguely feels like hope. hope that soobin isn’t joking, hope that this will all work out, hope that they could be together and happy.

yeonjun slides down onto the floor of the glaringly bright studio and presses his hands against his face to ground him. the anxiousness of confessing to someone and the general emotional turmoil he’s been through in the past 15 minutes is beginning to catch up with him and he takes deep breath because soobin will be here soon and he will have to talk to him without the crutch of being behind a screen.

he’ll have to tell him unrestrained and unedited how he feels and that is scary. the weight of everything that could turn out wrong about this has sat on his shoulders from the beginning and it seems to be getting larger and heavier as each minute passes.

he takes a deep breath.

rolls his shoulders and, 

tries to let it go.

he thinks of all the advice taehyun has given him, to actually take some risks and live in this moment and make an effort to be happy. because that’s what soobin makes him, completely and uncontrollably happy.

he suddenly hears the heavy footfalls of someone running down the corridor and stands so sharply that he has to steady himself on the wall, he’s here he’s here he’s here. the timid knock on the door is so hesitant compared to the frantic running that yeonjun can’t help but giggle a little.

“you can come in.” he’s sure the smile could be heard in his voice.

and the door opens and there is soobin, right in front of him.

his shoulders are still rising up and down rapidly from running and he’s still in the casual sweats that everyone had worn for the final practice but he looks so beautiful.

“hyung.” it’s just one word but it’s said so softly that it has yeonjun finally making eye contact with him.

and soobin’s eyes are sparkling, the grin on his face leaves yeonjun a little breathless.

he looks elated.

he looks in love.

“hyung.” soobin tries again and yeonjun realises he hadn’t said anything.

“soobin-ah.” it’s barely more than a whisper.

yeonjun couldn’t say what expression he was wearing but by the way soobin’s eyes flicker all over his face it must be expressing the whirlwind he’s feeling inside, soobin’s electrified stance softens.

he smiles again, all fond and delicate, it trickles into yeonjun’s veins.

soobin gestures for them to go and sit down in a corner of the room and yeonjun is immensely grateful, he’s pretty sure he was this close to fainting and or collapsing into soobin’s arms which, he supposes, would’ve had pros and cons. they sit cross legged about a metre apart from each other and yeonjun keeps his gaze on his lap whilst playing with a silver bracelet he’s wearing, the one that soobin had got him for his birthday—

(the one he agonized over for days because it was so beautiful and so thoughtful and had made yeonjun have another one of those moments of maybe— just maybe)

—he twists it round his wrist a few more times, a nervous tic he can’t get rid of. 

he realises soobin isn’t speaking and that he’s been the one initiating all the conversations so far, confessing and coming over to the studio, which isn’t fair and yeonjun wants to be brave for him. 

he wants to try— desperately wants this like the air he sucks into his lungs.

“so we’re in love then, huh?” yeonjun says slowly and finally looks up.

soobin pauses for a tense moment and then collapses into laughter, his shoulders shaking and nose scrunching, “we’re so awkward, oh god.” he softens a little, “yes hyung i suppose we are, as you say with so much tact, in love.”

yeonjun hums. “how long have you known?”

soobin takes a deep breath, “i’m not sure.” he smiles as if lost in memories, “i’ve liked you for a long time, i don't know for how long that was actually love but i only realised it a few days ago.”

soobin’s gaze is so honest and he’s saying things so unbelievable that yeonjun can’t help but blush.

“oh.”

soobin grins, “oh? that’s all you have to say? oh?”

“hey! this is quite a lot to process!”

“do you want me to keep saying these things then?”

“soobin—”

“i love you, i love you, i lov—”

yeonjun smacks a hand over his mouth, “stop!”

soobin leans back, “you look like a tomato at this point, hyung.”

“well, that's your fault!”

“it’s pretty.”

how is it possible that yeonjun could blush more ?

“i love you.” soobin whispers.

yeonjun’s breath catches in his throat, “i’m never going to get to my confession if you keep saying that.”

“oh, i get a confession now? then you may proceed.”

yeonjun rolls his eyes, “where’s the shy soobin that used to block my kisses? i miss him.”

he’s waiting for his confession.” soobin smiles widely.

well, here goes nothing. “i’ve liked you ever since i met you.” soobin’s eyes widen and the smile fades into something akin to awe. “i walked into that office and was told you were the leader of the group i would debut with and i was so surprised. i just recognised you as the handsome boy from my dance classes, but then you were so sweet and so kind and i knew i was done for.”

it's soobin’s turn to blush, a light pink spreading high across his cheekbones.

yeonjun grins, but he knows it’s a little sad, a little rueful. “i don’t know when it got ingrained in me that i could never do anything about it but it became my excuse. taehyunnie called me out on it a lot but i dunno, i was just...scared. you felt so perfect and i didn’t want to lose you. i didn’t want to complicate things or change anything, and i’m sorry.”

“you could never lose me.” it’s said shyly but yeonjun looks up and soobin’s eyes are full of sincerity, it has his heart stuttering in his chest. “and don’t apologise, i made it some unspoken thing too.” he scratches his neck a little sheepishly, “i wasn’t very nice to you when you were being playful sometimes, i never wanted to make you think you couldn’t be that way with me but it flustered me, like a lot. and you think i’m perfect? i thought you were perfect and just twenty times out of my league.”

“not true!” yeonjun butts in indignantly, despite the lightness of his chest, the weightlessness in hearing soobin’s side of the story. “we could just, i don’t know, forget all of it? start over on that front?”

“that is so cliché, oh my god.” 

“oh i’m sorry do you have any better ideas?”

“make it more romantic at least!”

“hello, nice to meet you, i’m choi yeonjun, and if you were a transformer you’d be optimus fine .”

“hyung!” soobin shrieks dramatically and rolls around on the floor, “i cannot believe i like you. optimus fine? really?”

“yep.” yeonjun grins and pops the p. he looks at soobin, still laughing in a mixture of fondness and exasperation and thinks i really like you, i really want to kiss you. and then, yeonjun realises he doesn’t have to pine in silence anymore because soobin likes him back, because soobin giggled and said i love you over and over, because soobin’s eyes are shining when they fall on him. “now are you gonna kiss me, or do i have to lie to my diary?”

soobin groans, “hyung that one was worse.

yeonjun laughs, light and clear, throwing his head back, but his attention is snatched back to soobin, who gently presses his hand to the back of yeonjun’s neck.

soobin pauses and leans closer to yeonjun, whose breath embarrassingly hitches very audibly.

soobin swallows and yeonjun finds himself mirroring the movement, “we couldn’t have that, though. so, hyung, can i kiss you?”

yeonjun huffs a little watery laugh, “of course you can, soobin-ah.”

soobin leans a little closer but pauses again before yeonjun’s lips, giving him time to back out, yeonjun can’t help but smile and softly presses their lips together. they kiss chastely and some of it is just teeth as they both grin into it, they kiss and kiss and yeonjun feels light and weightless like he does every time he’s with soobin, only amplified.

yeonjun pecks soobin’s lips one last time and pulls away before kissing his nose and all over his face in rapid succession.

soobin presses his forehead against yeonjun’s, “forgot to say, hello i’m choi soobin and do you have a map? cause i keep getting lost in your eyes.”

yeonjun grins helplessly. “you really like me enough that you’ll utter a dad joke? who are you and what have you done with choi soobin?”

“i really love you enough that i will.” soobin looks stricken for a second, “you don’t have to say it back though! only when you’re ready!”

yeonjun’s heart feels like it will thump out of his chest for sheer fondness of this boy.

“i love you too.”

soobin’s head darts up, “you do?”

“of course i do.” yeonjun says softly and just soobin lights up before kisses yeonjun again, and he feels like he’s basking in sun rays. “taehyun is going to be so relieved.”

soobin sighs, “i genuinely think gyu will throw us a party. kai might actually faint."

yeonjun giggles and buries his head into the crook of soobin’s neck, “we should go back to the dorm, it’s getting late.”

soobin hums in agreement before standing up, he dramatically flourishes a hand for yeonjun to take. yeonjun rolls his eyes but takes the hand and, instead of letting go, he entwines their fingers and pulls a flustered soobin out the door.

“drink your tea, soobin-ah.”

soobin looks up and leans over to kiss yeonjun’s cheek quickly before taking a sip of the raspberry and elderflower blend—

“drink yours too, jun.”

Notes:

edit 31/12/20: okay so just went through this fic after seriously considering orphaning it because i found it so cringe that i like. cried. but this was the first piece of fanfiction that i did and so i'm keeping it up, that said i have just edited many of the chapters and tags so it is in my opinion much better. thank you for all the kind comments and kudos!
