You giggled as Shownu rolled his eyes at Minhyuk's proposal for you to go to dinner even though you had already ate with your sister. You bite your lip settling into the depths of the sofa with ease. Shownu sat beside you, hands on his legs as his brothers clamored about excited to see you after you had spent time on a trip with your family in Singapore.
You lean into him bumping shoulders as he quietly sits beside you. He had always been a man of few words when there were too many people, but you knew him on a deeper level. Something was off.
"You okay?" You whisper.
He bobs his head yes once before looking at you as you stare at him. He smiles and you frown before seeing something large and stuffed coming at you. Shownu catches it with ease before it can smack you in the face as Changkyun pushes an embarrassed Jooheon in the chest.
"It's fine," you laugh and toss it back to them. You lean into Shownu again. "Take a walk with me? The cherry blossoms are in bloom."
"Okay," he agrees and helps you to your feet as you both pull on your shoes and a light jacket.
.....
You walked together quietly. His gaze on the path ahead as you passed more and more couples in love.
"Shownu?"
"Mmm?"
You sigh and reach out to catch his hand and squeeze it while pulling him to a stop. He looks down at you.
"Talk to me."
"It's nothing."
"Liar."
He chuckles a little before the mask slips and you can read him with ease. You had been right, he was upset about something.
"Talk to me," you repeat.
He looks down at his feet before looking back up at you. "I missed you."
"I missed you too."
"All the time you were gone they kept teasing me and it has messed with my thoughts," he says with a shrug of his shoulders.
"Teasing you?"
He nods starting to try to walk again, but you grip his hand tighter.
"Talk to me? What has gotten into you?"
He shuffles before sighing and you fight back a smile at his nerves that were making an extremely rare appearance.
"They think I should be dating you." He says quickly. "Everyone does, really. My friends think I am dating you. At least some of them think I am."
"Oh."
He nods and you feel your cheeks get hot as you blush. You glance away this time.
"I told them..."
Your gaze lifts to his. "Told them what?"
"You wouldn't see us that way..."
"Why not?"
"Because," he scratches the back of his neck in nervousness. "You are my best friend."
"Sometimes the best of friends can become the best of relationships Shownu," you say and his lips part as you blush even more.
You look away, hands clasping as you get ready to disappear into the sidewalk beneath your feet from embarrassment. You start to edge a foot backwards, but he notices and grasps your hand quickly.
"No, don't go."
"Then say something!" You cry as he stares at you, a look you've never seen before on his face.
He smirks pulling you closer until his lips press yours in a peck, but you grasp his coat pulling him back to you for an actual kiss. He chuckles arms wrapping around you.
"So I guess it's official," you murmur staring up into his gaze. "Your friends were right."
He laughs before you begin walking together, bodies bumping from how close you are to one another.
