"you're going to the super m concert in seoul in a week?!" shotaro yelled in a high-pitched voice, disturbing the peaceful atmosphere that had taken place around the boys before donghyuck had made his announcement.

"and you have a v.i.p. ticket?!" sungchan added on the same tone, looking as shocked as the rest of his friends.

the eight boys were chilling on the terrace of their favourite coffee shop, all of them occasionally taking sips of their drinks. they had all finished their classes an hours ago, and since it was friday, they had decided to hang out together in one of their favourite places.

everything was going fine until jeno had peeked on donghyuck's phone while the boy looked through his pictures, thus seeing the v.i.p. ticket for the super m concert that mark had sent donghyuck a week prior. and this had led to the state of shock that donghyuck's friends were in right now.

"yeah..." donghyuck smiled sheepishly, fidgeting with his fingers.

"i thought you were too broke to afford a ticket?" renjun frowned.

"yeah, plus a v.i.p. ticket? that shit costs at least 300,000 won!" jaemin nodded immediately.

"well..." donghyuck thought for a while. he didn't want to tell his friends that it was a gift from mark. first of all because they didn't know – except for jaemin – that mark and him had exchanged numbers, and then, because he knew that they would start imagining things if he told them mark had gifted him this ticket. "i found the ticket a few days ago on a resale website... the person was selling it quite low because they couldn't go to the concert, so i bought it immediately."

donghyuck's friends blinked collectively.

"how much did you pay?" chenle asked with a brow raised.

"100,000 won..." donghyuck replied hesitantly.

"100,000?! who the hell would resale a 300,000 won ticket at 100,000 won?!" sungchan dramatically snorted.

"oh my god hyuck, are you stupid?" jaemin groaned, slamming his head on his forehead.

"this was a trick, you got played..." jisung sighed.

"no, it isn't." donghyuck shook his head.

"donghyuck, it isn't possible." jeno told.

"i swear it's a real and official ticket." donghyuck assured – of course, he knew that the ticket was real, but he doubted his friends would ever believe what he was saying.

"you're so naïve..." renjun sighed. "think about it for a second. that person lost 200,000 won by selling you at 100,000 won a ticket they bought at 300,000 won!"

donghyuck crossed his arms over his chest. "look, i'm not in the head of the seller. i don't know why they did that, but i have my ticket and that's all that matters."

"but donghyuck! you are- "

"babe, don't get angry." jeno cut renjun's sentence, placing a hand on his boyfriend's thigh. "you know how stubborn donghyuck is... he'll never admit he is wrong."

"because i am not." donghyuck huffed.

"we'll see that next week, when you'll be blocked at the entrance of the concert because you'll have a fake ticket." jaemin rolled his eyes.

"sure. and don't be mad when i send you the videos of super m from the v.i.p. area." donghyuck clapped his hands.

the boy's friends sighed collectievely, not understanding how donghyuck could be so careless with his money. anyway, sometimes, the best way to learn your lesson was to fail miserably. and it seemed like donghyuck hadn't learnt enough life lessons yet.

"anyway." jaemin spoke after a second, catching everyone's attention again. "what were we talking about again before jeno interrupted us to yell about donghyuck's concert ticket?"

around the table, both chenle and jisung lowered their heads immediately, their cheeks slightly colouring red in shyness. both remembered very well what they had been talking about, and they had been quite thankful for jeno's interruption, because they would have died of embarrassment otherwise.

"we spoke about how you three ended together." shotaro declared pointing at jeno, jaemin and renjun.

"that was at the very very beginning... that conversation ended like two hours ago." sungchan informed.

"i don't remember then..."

"come on! i know it was interesting!" jaemin groaned. "and i am positive i had more things to say! can't anyone remember, really?"

jaemin's eyes travelled across the table, glancing at all his friends until his eyes fell on jisung and chenle who were awfully silent while sipping on their drinks with red cheeks.

"oh my god i remember!" jaemin exclaimed as both shy boys choked on their drinks at the same time, exchanging a nervous glance.

"oh yes!" donghyuck nodded as well, his eyes on chenle and jisung too. "we were discussing about your mutual feelings!"

"oh! that's true!" shotaro joined, and soon, all the attention was on the two younger boys.

"so... now that both of you are aware of each other's feelings, are you going to get together?"sungchan asked with a bright smile plastered on his face while he stared successively into chenle and jisung's eyes.

it was a secret to no one around this table that chenle had a crush on jisung and that jisung had a crush on chenle – well, everyone except the two younger boys themselves.

not only was it very visible, but both chenle and jisung had confessed to one of the boys in the group, and the information had quickly spread until the six other boys all knew about their mutual feelings and decided they would try helping them to get together.

from one day to the other, the six older boys would do everything to make sure jisung and chenle were sitting side by side, or that they were paired together if they needed to do whichever activity.

but chenle and jisung's obliviousness was messing everything up as both boys immediately became shy messes when they were together, and none of them ever confessed to the other, even with their friends trying to make them a couple for the past six months.

and well, this oblivious game would have surely kept going for long if shotaro hadn't accidentally spit out – just after they had sat down at the coffee shop – that both boys should stop turning around each other and confess because it was starting to get painful to see them being oblivious about the other's feelings.

needless to say, this had left both chenle and jisung glancing at each other shyly with red cheeks as they both realised what that meant: they had been liking each other for so long, but never had had the courage to admit it to each other...

"w-well..." chenle stuttered, glancing in jisung's direction.

"w-we could perhaps t-talk about it a bit before..." jisung explained.

"sure." jeno nodded. "please, go on."

"yeah, we're waiting for the kiss." jaemin added, looking at both boys expectantly.

chenle and jisung stared back at their friends, too shy to speak.

"guys! start taling!" shotaro stated, encouraging them.

"right now?!" chenle squeaked.

"yeah. otherwise, you'll never do it." donghyuck nodded.

"we're not going to talk in front of you guys." jisung frowned, glancing sideways at chenle.

jeno raised a brow. "why not?"

"b-because it's awkward..." jisung lowered his head. "and... i don't know..."

"well, then go talk somewhere else, but come back quickly, because we want to see you two being together." renjun informed with a bright smile.

after a few seconds of hesitation, chenle stood up, facing jisung shyly.

"y-you... you're coming...?" he asked with red cheeks as jisung looked into his eyes.

jisung took chenle's hand in his as the older boy was holding it out, making the other boys coo around the table before looking at the two younger boys walk somewhere their older friends wouldn't spy on them.

"young love..." jaemin said dreamily. "next on the list are you two." he added, pointing at shotaro and sungchan who both emitted weird sounds.

"us two?" sungchan frowned in confusion.

"yeah. i sense that something is going on." jaemin wiggled his brows. "plus, once you two will get together, we'll all be happy gays with boyfriends."

"excuse me, but i exist too, and i don't have a boyfriend." donghyuck intervened.

"yeah, i know. but considering how obsessed you are with your idols, i know you won't get a boyfriend unless it's that lucas guy of whom you have dozens of posters in your room." jaemin rolled his eyes.

"yeah, and you seem a bit too confident about sho and i getting together." sungchan raised a brow at jaemin.

"he's right." shotaro nodded. "we don't like each other that way. we're friends."

"for the moment..." jaemin smirked.

sungchan was about to argue again, but jeno shook his head, preventing him to do so. "don't try fighting with him about that. he's more stubborn than hyuck when it comes to gay love."

both best friends rolled their eyes simultaneously at jeno's words.

"oh, chenle and jisung are already coming back." renjun informed with a smile.

all heads turned around to look at chenle and jisung who were walking together, holding hands shyly with red cheeks and beaming smiles.

"well, well, well..." jeno wiggled his brows.

"i think we have a new couple within our group..." renjun continued.

"it's about time you two ended up together." sungchan nodded.

"yeah, approved." donghyuck stated.

"so?" jaemin smirked. "can we see a little kiss?"

if chenle and jisung weren't totally red before, they were by now.

"n-no!" chenle squeaked.

"come on! just one!" jaemin pleaded. "a quick peck! please, please, please!!"

chenle continued shaking his head with his cheeks flaming red, not daring to look up at his friends who were all whining as asking them to kiss.

the chinese male was shy because even though jisung and him had agreed to become boyfriends a few seconds before, they hadn't kissed each other, and this meant that chenle still never had had his first kiss.

jisung sighed after a while, seeing their friends being insistant on chenle and him kissing.

he didn't really feel pressured to act, because he truly wanted to kiss chenle, which is why he cupped chenle's cheek with his large palm, lifting it up until chenle had his head tilted up, allowing jisung to drop a long-lasting peck on chenle's soft lips, under the eyes of their six friends.

"there, happy?" jisung asked his friends.

needless to say, the six boys cheered immediately, congratulating the new couple.

and jisung even heard chenle squeaking out a small "yes!" with his cheeks redder than ever after their lips had been locked.

♪

mark rolled around in his bed, smiling brightly at his phone while texting the fan he had been chatting with for the past weeks.

there was one day left until the concert, and mark couldn't contain his excitement knowing that he would be able to see donghyuck again. the tanned male had been running on his mind ever since they had met during the 'one day with super m' program.

me

you should go to bed

it's late

you still have school tomorrow

cutie

i won't be able to sleep

too excited

me

too excited?

what for?

cutie

the concert

tomorrow night

i'll be able to see super m perform live

and i'll meet all the members again

oh my god, i'm going to see lucas

mark sighed at the mention of lucas' name. of course, donghyuck was looking forward to this concert because it would be his first concert ever – mark recalled him and donghyuck talking about it the other day – and also because he would be able to see his bias again.

the canadian was kind of hurt that the boy he had developed feelings for in so little time was in fact obsessed with lucas who didn't really seem to be particularly interested in him.

but anyway, after years of being an idol, mark had understood that there were some things in life that he couldn't get, and he had to be contented of the things he already had.

so, that's what he did. being able to see donghyuck again was enough for him. as long as donghyuck was happy, he would be too at that point.

me

yep

you'll see all of us again

i'm happy about that

cutie

me too

i still can't believe it

OH MY GOD

i don't know what i'm going to wear

what do you think i should wear?

will it be hot in the concert room?

i have nothing to wear ughh

the canadian chuckled at donghyuck's panicked state. the boy was really cute, and mark could already imagine him panicking inside his bedroom while searching for something to wear.

honestly, mark knew that donghyuck could wear a potato sack and still look gorgeous. as he had said during the 'one day with super m' program, donghyuck would even look good without anything.

me

it will probably be hot yeah

but don't worry too much about your outfit

anything is fine honestly

cutie

but i want to look nice

and pretty

i'm sure there will be tons of pretty girls

looking gorgeous in their favourite fits

me

surely

but you'll outstand them with anything you'll wear

i know it

so don't pressure yourself

cutie

...

me

anyway

it's really late

you should go to sleep

we'll see each other tomorrow

cutie

okay

goodnight mark

me

good night

i'm looking forward to seeing you again

with a contented sigh, mark locked his phone, lying on his back on the bed and sighing loudly while imagining himself meeting donghyuck again.

god, love at first sight sure was powerful...
