handsomegyu:
I'm here!
What store are you guys in, Wonwoo-hyung?

epsilonaquigay:
we're in the shoe store near the food court. i forget what it's called...

handsomegyu:
Oh alright!
That's close to where I am! I came from the food court entrance.
Be there in a few!

"Who're you texting?" Woo-hyuk asks, placing a hand on Wonwoo's shoulder and leaning in closely. He squints his eyes in an attempt to read the text on Wonwoo's phone. "...Does that say Gyu? Who is it?"

"Mingyu. Kim Mingyu. My boyfriend that I told you about, remember?" Wonwoo answers.

"Ooh, the tall and handsome soccer player? I remember," Woo-hyuk says with a wink. Wonwoo stuffs his phone back into his pocket and shoves Woo-hyuk's face away.

"Move. You're too close," Wonwoo grumbles. "Don't you know what personal space is? Or did your time in France make you forget?"

"Jinha-yah!" Woo-hyuk whines. He runs towards Jinha and hides behind him, glaring at Wonwoo accusingly. "Wonwoo's bullying me again!"

"You probably deserve it." Jinha shrugs. He hums thoughtfully as he looks at the shoes on display.

"Rude!" Woo-hyuk squawks. He turns to their other friend. "Eungi won't be rude to me like you two are. Right, Eungi-hyung?"

"Do you think Jeongwoo would like these shoes?" Eungi asks Jinha. Jinha shrugs.

"Probably, but I suggest that you come here with him and ask him what he thinks, just to be sure," Jinha responds.

"I can't believe my friends are ignoring me," Woo-hyuk mutters in disbelief.

handsomegyu:
Tf where are you?
I don't see you

"Oh, he's here, my boyfriend's here," Wonwoo announces, tapping Eungi on the arm excitedly.

"Is that him?" Eungi questions, pointing towards the store entrance. Wonwoo perks up and nods excitedly.

"That's him!"

"I'm going to go tell him about how you keep bullying me!" Woo-hyuk declares before making his way towards Mingyu. Wonwoo runs after him. Woo-hyuk reaches Mingyu first and taps the handsome boy on the shoulder.

"You're Wonwoo's boyfriend, right?" Woo-hyuk asks when Mingyu turns around. Mingyu nods.

"Yes...who are you? Are you one of his friends?" Mingyu replies.

"I wish I could say that we're friends. You know, I really thought that we were friends, but it seems that I'm nothing more than a target for Wonwoo to pick on," Woo-hyuk sighs. Wonwoo rolls his eyes and slaps the back of his head.

"He bullies you?!" Mingyu gasps. "Wonwoo-hyung, you jerk! How could you bully one of your friends?!"

"He's not my friend, I don't know him," Wonwoo denies. "Let me introduce you to my actual friends." He grabs Mingyu's hand and pulls him over to the others.

"Wait for me!" Woo-hyuk yelps, following them quickly.

"Mingyu, these are my friends, Kang Jinha and Kwon Eungi," Wonwoo introduces, pointing to the two boys. "Jinha might look scary, but he's not, I promise. He's actually really cute."

"Am not!" Jinha protests.

"And Eungi seems heartless at times, but he's a good guy. He just doesn't put up with other people's crap," Wonwoo continues. "He's pretty cool. He plays the guitar."

"Wow, really?! Can you teach me?!" Mingyu asks, eyes sparkling enthusiastically. Eungi flinches back.

"Your boyfriend reminds me of Jeongwoo for some reason, Wonwoo-ah," Eungi says. He turns to Mingyu. "Ah, it's not a bad thing! You just seem very...eager and excitable."

"Thanks, I think!" Mingyu beams.

"Are you done bullying me, Wonwoo?" Woo-hyuk interrupts, pouting sadly. Wonwoo rolls his eyes.

"This is the stupid childhood friend I told you about, Choi Woo-hyuk. He's an idiot," Wonwoo tells Mingyu.

"An attractive idiot!" Woo-hyuk corrects. He smiles and turns to Mingyu. "Hello! I'm Choi Woo-hyuk. I've known this boor ever since we were young. If you ever want to know about embarrassing events in his past, just ask me. Nice to meet you!"

"Ooh, he called you a boor, Wonwoo-ah!" Jinha mocks playfully.

"Do you watch 'Starmyu' too?!" Mingyu questions hopefully. Woo-hyuk energetically nods.

"Finally, another fan!" Woo-hyuk cheers happily. He slings an arm around Mingyu's shoulders and grins. "You and I are going to get along well, I can already tell."

"Alright, hands off my boyfriend," Wonwoo says, pushing Woo-hyuk away and wrapping his arm around Mingyu's waist. "Also, you aren't allowed to tell him about anything embarrassing I did as a child, got it?"

"Aw, boo. You're no fun," Woo-hyuk huffs. He smirks devilishly. "At least let me give your boyfriend a proper French greeting, hm?" Wonwoo scowls and pulls Mingyu closer to him protectively.

"Not a chance, you perv!"
