All Because of A Cup of Coffee || csc & osh
Seungcheol was in his regular spot at the coffeehouse; a small booth enclosed on three sides by warm-toned wooden walls and a wraparound couch that was fraying at the edges. On the round table he had set up his recording gear; a HoloCam that hovered about capturing his best angle and his tablet to read the comments that will soon come in from his viewers.
It wasnāt exactly the best set-up ā his HoloCam was old and would take random dives in the air before righting itself again, and no one even used tablets anymore ā but it was enough for an amateur vlogger like Seungcheol. Although he had only started doing such live broadcasts a few weeks ago, Seungcheol was already gaining a decent following seeing as how he was somewhat popular on SeeMe and people at school always liked to know what he was up to.
Today Seungcheol had asked his viewers to send in truth or dare questions for him to do.
The messages started flooding the chat the moment Seungcheol went online. He laughed at a particularly funny question, reading it out loud: āTruth or dare? Truth; are you currently see someone? Dare; I dare you to tell us who youāve been seeing.ā
āThat dare isnāt a dare by the way,ā Seungcheol added good-naturedly. āBut the truth is Iām single? I might like someone but I donāt know whether they like me back? Itās complicated.ā
The comment box filled up with multiple inquiries ā āIs it someone we know?ā, āTheyāre probably very high rated, right?ā, āWho!! Spill!!ā ā but they go unanswered as Seungcheol chooses to ignore them.
Instead he read out more truth or dare questions, sometimes picking truths and sometimes dares as he saw fit to keep the broadcast interesting.
āTruth or dare? Truth: Whatās your sexual orientation? Dare: Drag a stranger on screen and compliment them for one minute.ā
Seungcheol paused at that particular question. He pursed his lips, looking at the Truth asked. Everyone already knew what his sexual orientation was. It was one of the first few things he had revealed about himself when he started these vlogs. It was no secret and Seungcheol had a feeling that whoever asked probably already knew the answer anyway. Which meant that what they really wanted him to do was the dareā¦
It wasnāt really a hard dare. The complimenting part would definitely be easy ā Seungcheol was proud to say he was someone who could see the good in everyone and never hesitated to them about it.
It was the āstrangerā part that had him thinking twice. Seungcheol might be a loud and outgoing guy but he has not ā and may never ā reach the level of shamelessness required to randomly go up to people and ask them to be part of his vlogs.
Seungcheol was about to skip the question entirely but then hesitated. It was a cool dare⦠and it was better to try it now in a familiar environment than to have it crop up again when he was actually in public.
In a split second Seungcheol was announcing a quick āBe right backā and bounding up to a barista he had seen numerous times and was sure recognized him on at least some superficial level.
āSehun?ā Seungcheol asked, glancing at the guyās nametag. āCould you help me with something?ā
