ᴘᴇᴛᴛʏ ʟɪᴛᴛʟᴇ ʀᴏsᴇ.

it is the calm water in the middle of an anxious SEA. where heavy clouds p a r t and the sunrise starts a fire in the deepest part of me. so i let go and in this moment, i can [breathe]. the clumsy start of adolescence, the glue that mends our broken remnants.

                taesuk rolls over on his stomach, elbows propping up onto the floor and chin settling into his palms as he examines eunjae with a curious gaze, eybrows quirked up in question. he had invited the older boy over to hang for a bit, and while that usually just consisted of takeout and netflix ( both of which were already set up and ready to go in front of him ), taesuk may or may not have had ULTERIOR methods. “i’ve gotten zero updates recently on your status with sehyun, and i’m gonna need you to update me...” he pauses ( for dramatic effect, of course ), attempting to whip off his circular frames in a threatening manner, but only managing to get the temples of said frames caught on his ears in the process--- fuck you, you huge ass motherfuckers. a small huff of disappoint sounds in response, before he relents and slides his glasses back on as normal. “....asap. i’m gonna need you to update me asap.”  [ ft. @ecnjaes ]

               ‘ from me ? am i honestly the only person that tells you that you’re cute ? ’ he inquired, with a tilt of his head & a twinkle of curiosity in his iris. yet, he didn’t dwell on the question for too long until he shook his head & allowed a raspy breath escape from parted lips. ‘ nah, i don’t BELIEVE it. i’ve heard other people call you it more than me ! ’ he leaned backwards a bit to assess the table they sat at, thoughts hazed as he tried to remember drinks he had by this point. kace couldn’t imagine it was a PLAUSIBLE number, as he was aware that when he did drink — - it was excessively. a smile broke out onto his visage at the sensation that coiled around him when taesuk’s touch filled his senses. returnin’ to his previous position as his free hand curled around the drink he had been nursin’, dimples protruded on his cheeks the MORE he smiled. ‘ uh, let’s see.. – what else is on my mind ? i need another drink, i gotta piss again, i wanna take you home, ’ the male rambled off anything that came to his mind, in a particular order.  

                “okay maybe you’re not the only person,” taesuk grins teasingly in response, eyes rolling playfully alongside the words. “but i do quite like hearing it from you, you know,” he slurs slightly, leaning in closer to kace in the process. the last shot was starting to make its way to his head, finally, so he was starting to feel MUCH more flirty and responsive than before. but it was true. something about the way the older boy called him c u t e, made him awfully giggly and EXCITED --- often acting as if he were nothing more than a school girl with a crush on an older senior. which was so ridiculous and embarrassing when he thought about it, really. but now... in the moment? when alcohol clouded a majority of his common sense and made him weaker to the boy beside him? it didn’t seem to matter all that much. “well... maybe we should order another drink then, yeah? that way you can go piss and then take me home.” a soft smile teases at his lips, teeth catching his lesser one as soon as he finishes speaking.

                the festival wasn’t that far from where her apartment building was located, a factor that she may have let influence her when purchasin’ the place. from the window, you could see the faint shimmer of the lights in the evening & it merely made her heart grow with warmth. as the two continued their path towards the festival, minkyo’s hand fell back to her side when he shuffled closer to her. ‘ it’s all a lie, an INTERNALIZED one ! you’re most definitely the cutest being out there, that is final, ’ she retorted easily, punctuatin’ her statement with a small huff. they neared the festival by now, & her head shook when the words left taesuk’s mouth. ‘ you definitely could, you would look like dumbo ! the most cutest elephant out there. ’ which nonetheless was true, even though he was made fun of — - he was adorable. 

                taesuk’s insides warm a bit at the familiarity of being around minkyo--- always finding comfort in the girl’s presence, no matter what. and while things had only been mildly stressful as of late, it still felt relieving to not worry about work or b o y s for one night, and just be with one of his best friends. “an internalized one?” the older boy snorts, his eyebrow quirks up in amusement. “but i suppose i should take that as a compliment, yeah? the cutest girl in the world calling me the cutest boy in the world? i guess that’s acceptable,” he teases with a light nudge to his friend’s side, lips curling up into a small smile. ---one of which that quickly drops into another pout soon after. “nooooo, i’d look so silly, min,” he whines childishly,  never hesitating to bring out the more ‘babyish’ side of his personality around minkyo.

                a singular breath flowed from her mouth, the science of condensation workin’ it’s magic so she could witness that very breath in front of her. the chilled air filled her throat, lungs, to replace the warm air she had released as they continued to stroll towards the festival. arm still hooked around his own, being in the PRESENCE of her best friend always tended to lift her spirits than normal & more so with taesuk because of that motherly instinct, doing activities with her baby. a gasped escaped from minkyo, as if she was shocked, ‘ i’ve had quite enough of your lies, sir. please start telling the truth before i’m forced to take desperate measures to get it out of you. ’ a nod punctuated her sentence, digits still slightly tuggin’ on his ear. in which she still hadn’t released it, as she gently tugged it once more. ‘ i’d LOVE to see that, my big eared baby ! you’d be even cuter than you are now, i’m telling ya’ ! ’ yet, her fingertips retracted after to return to her coat pocket. 

                taesuk finds himself shuffling a bit closer to the smaller as the wind chill hits him, shivering beneath the confines of his puffy jacket. EVEN THOUGH, minkyo was shorter than him by a good bit, he still often sought protection and warmth in her presence --- he always had. he might’ve had a few inches on her, but that still didn’t mean she wasn’t capable of protecting taesuk when it came down to it --- they were both very well aware of that. a squeak sounds as she continues to tug at his own ear. “i’m only telling the truth!” he insists through a pout, taking his free hand and rubbing at the slightly sore lobe. “you know me, i’m awful at lying. so OBVIOUSLY i wouldn’t be,” he huffs in response, determined in his own answer. “ugh, i would look ridiculous. some people can pull off big ears, but most certainly not m e.” the florist’s thoughts briefly fall towards the one person he knew could pull off such a look, before vehemently shaking them away altogether. ---none of that.

“Sorry for sneaking up on you though, you seem pretty spooked,” Duckie points out, but is quick to shrug his statement off when Taesuk changes subjects, Probably wasn’t worth dwelling upon. He shoots a grin at the younger, though.

“Honestly, my break hasn’t really been much of one. I kinda thought that the gap between graduation and getting settled into this internship would be at least a week or so, but it feels like I’ve been thrown into it right away–” Duckie said, leaning against the wall and giving a huff. “I love the work I’m doing, but it feels like an awful lot, awful quick. So it goes in the field, I guess.” 

                “yeah i guess i was just... in my own head there for a bit,” taesuk shrugs sheepishly, a somewhat nervous chuckle sounding as soon the words slip by. he certainly wasn’t meaning to sound so awkward--- not around his roommate of all people--- but it was hard not to shuffle his feet and gnaw at his lower lip in front of the other when he couldn’t help but feel guilty for purposefully ignoring him lately. all because of a boy. taesuk TRULY needed to sort out his priorities.                 taesuk pouts sympathetically at his friend’s statement -- GENUINE concern showing in the downturn of his lips. “how’s the internship working out so far, though? they’re not working you too hard or anything are they?” his hands naturally fall into the pockets of his coat, a shrug finding its way to his shoulders. “but yeah, i guess you’re right. i guess i’m pretty lucky that floristry isn’t all that daunting of a career,” he smiles, relaxed and edging just on playful. even if other facts were currently making him feel a bit tense, he couldn’t remain awkward around the boy he lived with for long --- not when duckie was one of the few that has seen him at all his worsts.

                with the way the alcohol began to settle in his system once again, the previous mishappening of their quarrel hazed into the back of his mind & a more fuzzier mood forefronted itself. it may be due to the numerous number of drinks that one could empty in a matter of five minutes, it was a surprise on how he didn’t suffer from alcohol poisoning by now, with the addition of the factor that kace was an extreme lightweight by this point in his life. so, when he found his sense of sobriety slippin’, he allowed it to fade & settled into a more COMFORTABLE state of mind — - one, that had no trace of depression, anger, or freight. hence, the reason the male found himself closer to the tinier male than previously. not a care in the world, dared for someone to say somethin’ to him. ‘ have you ? not shocked, honestly, ’ kace admitted, words slightly slurred but still comprehensible. another sip of his drink interfered before he could continue his debauched attempt of hittin’ on taesuk. ‘ butter you up ? nah, just thought you should know what’s on my mind & that’s what’s on my mind. ’ words tumbled from his mouth rather in a quick-pace, irises still rather glassy as he flashed a smile at the boy.

                the longer he sipped at the strong concoction settled in his grasp, the gigglier taesuk started to feel. and whatever sober state of mind was currently left took the time to thank whichever god was up there that he was leaning more towards the ‘happy, giggly drunk’ tonight, rather than the ‘emotional’ drunk that he also tended to sometimes be. there was nothing fun about openly sniffling over the smallest, most random things in a bar full of athletes. he quickly downs the rest of his drink before responding to the older boy, hoping to quickly get on his level of tipsiness --- maybe THAT would calm the fluttery feeling in the pit of his belly, and possibly even distract him from the few stares he was starting to receive. a quiet giggle slips past his lips at kace’s remark, head tilting a bit to the side. “yeah, from you mostly,” he grins, slender fingers playfully tapping at the boy’s hand that currently rested on the bench between them. maybe he didn’t hear it from kace mostly, but he had definitely always preferred hearing it from the older boy just a bit more than anyone else, if he were being completely honest. the compliment often produced a fluttery sort of sensation --- something similar to what would happen whenever kace called him ‘baby.’ it wasn’t something he thought much on, usually --- but it was nice. “so what else is on your mind?” his gaze cuts up towards kace, a flirty grin pulling at his lips as he continues to play with the boy’s fingers.
