Jehyuk sneaked a glance b80792fec3 at Sihoo. Standing under 5a4614603c the cherry b2ca2d9b39 blossoms, Yoon 513f7defbc Sihoo looked ba702b5c6f as if 67b1164ca7 he had 43c416640e belonged there 85226e241b since the 31fb2c55ee beginning.b5d783fda90a0bda

Sihoo wasn’t showing be4fc3dccd any sign of fa87d7e531 discomfort. Maybe he was 2af9c151c2 just tolerating it, a5cab6dd74 but at least d016e453c3 he hadn’t reacted 9018c3bd77 negatively—so for now, 95bdb674e7 Jehyuk could breathe 59a10e9a53 a little easier.45f881d1a3423fea

The other wrapped around 1bd919f52c his back, pulling him 3322dada81 into a warm embrace. Jehyuk didn’t even f8a6c58061 have the mental e707d2045a capacity to refuse. If anything, it was 00415d344c a relief.aca5e52d939b69a1

With his face buried d083a9db56 against Sihoo’s chest, at 456efc8461 least he wouldn’t have bde48e6800 to show whatever expression d021d0612f he was making. Finally, he bb418b7654 exhaled, drawing 503a486eea in deep, 449e44a15c shaky breaths.afc0b0d7e07f7b6a

Sihoo’s hand bdd5ad1efe moved soothingly 8834ce622a over his 362a4f5eab back.7ea6fbb8d469b742

“Sorry. I didn’t think you’d ab2c08c69e react this much.” His 8e22ab56a8 voice was calm, genuinely bbed1f5804 apologetic.9629caa7122758a4

“Did you ca733f87c5 hate it aa53be48af that much?” 22d65350c6 Sihoo’s voice fb1d0ff457 reached him 10ed8def41 again, gentle a6d7ff4ddc yet cautious.2ff148b4275cda6b

“I thought 233123ee8c you were d30291c6eb fine holding d5937d3c39 hands, so 0968d3120b I figured… 9020d0e23d something small 04ba133aac like a ad18a1a899 peck would 5227bf31a5 be okay. Sorry, Hyuk-ah.”070286ac173c44b0

Jehyuk, still lightheaded, f4c33bac09 caught onto one d2d0657daf particular word.fb594557d44cf3e6

A peck?bdbdf17618a85774

That word—its innocent, almost 83f0950ebb playful tone—felt even stranger 4eba71e852 to him than kiss 0df9a7c2b5 did.fe5f83f6c821bfeb

Still too 1d203632ab embarrassed to f071dfd181 lift his b1c090fd93 head, he be82229150 mumbled against af39da345b Sihoo’s chest.64a86365fb77bb0f

“…It wasn’t c22e4c1003 a kiss?” d8fb4a0959 His voice 03e93024e3 was thick 7e4884b13d with confusion.af834b3c9579610d

Sihoo’s hand stilled 9a9cf3e063 for a moment. Then, he burst into 7156342576 laughter. It was 784cf372b3 a genuine 8a24cbfb77 laugh, full 459d74d9e5 of amusement.5b5a5ca96a5c3a2a

And damn it, 9a856c90eb even that sounded e0aaa6d4a4 good.ee547989bb3a81c3

For a split afd4f838b2 second, Jehyuk wondered—how 9bc351e71d the hell was 37fc9a9d88 someone like this 2d50e891fc even real?7e31e5f5bf714700

“Mm, nope. Not a kiss.” ddfc4da194 Sihoo murmured, his 44c58991dd voice low as f9f41725e1 he rubbed soothing f9a871d68b circles on Jehyuk’s b3f66831c2 shoulder.8761d2472ef27b91

Jehyuk pulled away, aa066d949f lifting his head d3a9032532 with a sharp 6e1e5f1835 motion, his face 6908e4a422 openly displaying his 4b1809f94f confusion.380b9693a2ac987f

So, in 2c82ceba4e Jehyuk’s mind, b2a25644f1 a peck b024476e5f was something ff2567cea9 you did 6f18d30e9e on a f992b97a65 place that e9e6321c20 wasn’t the e455187062 lips. When lips 26350aba6b met lips, 926518a090 that was 3eed15d216 a kiss.576ab988234c9543

“This doesn’t really count 5d1955c4fd as a kiss. Besides, Hyuk-ah, cdd562529f your first 4e09e5ab5a kiss should de1acd509b be with 04111b12d7 someone else, 0ff5c1611f not me. This was just 1fdb09decc practice, after all.”cd1f5b702ba9dd8d

“…Someone else?”c09f336a37520b20

He felt f8fd3722fb like he 6c0b9b83ed kind of 97860569cf understood why 199578e323 Sihoo was b26490403f saying this… c1c26ad7b0 or maybe e271708b74 he didn’t. His mind 66eafd4bb4 had turned feaf557e39 to stone, 7a11c99ac8 and he 8dc32c8ed8 struggled to 0f272a2089 get it 7c71b16d07 moving again. If he 1dc0e5a2f8 traced back aeb597568b how they 89963a018c even got b978f92e66 to this f80bc5d308 point—no, why c3e2b88541 they ended 69e4e75f4c up kissing 973bf8af6a in the 06bcbf26b5 first place…4fcf46bca9dd3674

Jehyuk had lived a 4eb9f9465a life far from normal, 24cb7a9b79 so of course, Sihoo 3c6100546d was probably right. But the problem was, 06248f1fe3 Jehyuk had never even 0fe86c2c2e done that before. Not until today.dc599ee02a1d7397
