Part 3: The Future I Want for You
It was when Yuho was deep in sound sleep. He suddenly woke up to his ringing phone.
Yuho checked his phone screen in surprise. A call was coming from an unsaved number. Yuho thought it might be a sasaeng fan and was about to not answer, but pressed the call button just in case.
“Hello.”
“Hey. Yuho?”
“Ah…… Yes.”
Yuho was flustered by the voice that seemed familiar yet uncertain. Fortunately, the other party revealed their identity first.
“It’s me, Suhan-hyung.”
“Ah. Hello. Have you been well……”
“Is Inhan at the dorm right now?”
Yuho hesitated before answering. He knew that Inhan hadn’t told his older brother about living independently. Yuho had no choice but to lie.
“Yes. I think he’s sleeping right now.”
“Could you possibly put him on?”
“Right now?”
“Yeah. I keep not being able to get through. Yeomin and Taeyoon said they’re not at the dorm.”
“……Yes. Just a moment.”
Yuho paused for a moment in his actions. Then he soon shook Inhan awake.
“Inhan. Wake up.”
“……Hyung. Why?”
Inhan barely opened his eyes and looked at Yuho with a face full of sleepiness.
“Your call is from Suhan-hyung.”
“Ah.”
Inhan immediately stiffened his expression and took the phone. Then he left the room right away.
Yuho listened toward outside the bedroom in puzzlement. Occasionally he could hear Inhan’s voice raising.
Yuho waited for Inhan to return with an anxious heart.
“Sorry. You woke up because of my hyung, right?”
After finishing the brief call and returning, Inhan first checked on Yuho’s condition. Yuho answered nonchalantly.
“No. It was time to wake up anyway. But did something happen with your hyung?”
“No. It’s because of the disbandment articles.”
“But why weren’t you answering your hyung’s calls?”
“Because he keeps nagging.”
Inhan concluded the conversation as if it was nothing. Yuho felt uneasy but didn’t pry further.
“Did you sleep well?”
Inhan soon cupped one of Yuho’s cheeks with an affectionate word and kissed his eyes. It happened in an instant, so Yuho had no time to react.
“……Yeah. What about you?”
“I couldn’t sleep well.”
“Why? Because of me?”
“Yeah. Because of you, hyung.”
Unlike the words shifting responsibility, Inhan wore a pleased smile. Then he stretched and asked Yuho.
“It’s 9 o’clock now, do you want to sleep more or get up?”
“I’ll get up.”
“Okay.”
Yuho followed behind Inhan as he left the bedroom, heading to the living room.
“You should eat breakfast. What should I make?”
“Should we just simply eat the cake we bought yesterday?”
“You want to?”
Inhan asked back and Yuho immediately nodded.
“Sit down.”
“Should I help?”
“It’s okay.”
“Alright.”
When Yuho sat in the dining chair, Inhan immediately poured a glass of milk and prepared the cake, placing it in front of Yuho. He decided to simply brew and drink a cup of coffee for himself.
After quickly making a cup of coffee and placing it on the table, Inhan deliberately pulled a chair over to sit in the seat next to Yuho. Then, revealing his dark intentions from the morning, he asked Yuho.
“Hyung. Can I hold your hand?”
“Sure.”
Yuho obediently extended his hand. Inhan held Yuho’s hand with his right hand and picked up the coffee cup with his left hand. He didn’t know being ambidextrous could be useful in this way.
“Hyung. Can I hug you?”
Inhan continued to ask playfully.
This time too, Yuho nodded nonchalantly. Inhan reached out and pulled Yuho into his arms. He felt like he might die from happiness.
Now Inhan decided to go one step further.
“Hyung. Can I kiss you?”
At Inhan’s question, Yuho scrunched up his face and started pondering. Then he surprised Inhan with an unexpected remark.
“……Where would you do it?”
Inhan barely lowered the corners of his mouth that were rising on their own and asked Yuho.
“Where would you like me to?”
“Lips are a bit much.”
Hearing Yuho’s answer, Inhan laughed with a deflating sound.
Compared to the past when he would unconditionally say no, there had been a lot of progress. He was very satisfied with that change.
At Inhan’s reaction, Yuho seemed embarrassed and added an excuse.
“We haven’t even been dating for a day.”
“Then when will it be okay?”
Inhan calmly sipped his coffee while asking Yuho. Yuho avoided Inhan’s eyes and answered with difficulty.
“Uh…… maybe we can sometime?”
“That sometime, when exactly is it?”
“Um. Soon?”
“How soon. Tomorrow?”
“Not that.”
“The day after tomorrow?”
“That’s too soon too.”
“Then we can just do it today.”
Saying that, Inhan brought his face close to Yuho’s face.
When Inhan’s face approached right in front of him, Yuho flinched in surprise. Ahhh. Without realizing it, he even covered his lips with the back of his hand. Inhan playfully kissed the back of Yuho’s hand with a smack and pulled away.
Then he pulled back his body and said to Yuho.
“I’m joking.”
“It didn’t seem like a joke.”
“I’ll wait until you say it’s okay, hyung.”
Unlike Inhan’s words conveyed gently, Yuho thought he didn’t seem to be waiting much at all.
“Are you going straight to the meeting place?”
“No. I need to stop by the dorm, wash up and change clothes before going.”
“There are lots of clothes you can wear here too.”
“Huh? Still?”
Yuho asked in puzzlement. He was surprised that his belongings were still left when he had packed a whole load with a large suitcase to the dorm. Yuho asked Inhan with a just-in-case feeling.
“You’re not collecting them on purpose, are you?”
“Well.”
“Don’t tell me you even have underwear?”
“……”
“No. Don’t answer.”
“I do have some.”
“Ahhh.”
In the end, Yuho learned even excessive information he didn’t want to know.
“Why? You’ve never done underwear ads.”
“Just in case.”
Right. That’s possible. Since he slept over twice. Yuho rationalized as best he could and decided to refrain from asking more questions for his own mental health.
Inhan barely held back saying that he even had the same designs as his own.
Swayed by Inhan’s persuasion, Yuho didn’t go to the dorm and finished all his outing preparations at his house. Thanks to having time left over, the two decided to eat lunch together outside before parting.
“Are you coming to the dorm today?”
“Yes. I have a joint schedule with Yeomin-hyung tomorrow.”
“Should I wait up without sleeping?”
“No. Sleep first. I don’t know how late it’ll be.”
“Then I’ll wait only until 12.”
“Okay. I’ll call you before then.”
“Okay. Sure.”
“Hyung. Just a moment.”
“Yeah?”
It was the moment when the two were about to pack their things and leave through the front door.
Suddenly Inhan stopped Yuho at the door, and Yuho looked back at Inhan in puzzlement.
At the same time, Inhan held both of Yuho’s cheeks with one hand and lowered his face to kiss the bridge of his nose. Yuho was just helplessly subjected to it in a defenseless state.
“This isn’t the lips, so it’s okay. Right?”
Yuho was at a loss for words at Inhan’s utterly shameless remark. And he thought the moment of “soon” he had mentioned would come very quickly.
‘Yuho & Inhan Korean restaurant sighting pic (57)’
Source is Byeolgram
The person who took it is a civilian and it seems they went to eat lunch together without a manager
At first Inhan kept putting side dishes on top of Yuho’s spoon
Yuho said it’s okay, you eat it, and then later they were making a fuss exchanging side dishes with each other
The post writer was bewildered asking if idols are normally like this with members
It makes sense that others would be surprised seeing how affectionate our kids are with each other ㅋㅋㅋ
But even we sometimes feel self-conscious ㅋㅋㅋ Our ChilSpot babies have too much real love among themselves
[Aww our babies are so cute I’m dying]
[How long has it been since we got a JangDan-jeu two-shot ㅜㅜㅜ]
[Our membus please keep doing Seven Spot]
└ [222 my babies stay together forever]
[Yuho’s been going around really freely these days]
└ [They’re in their 5th year, it makes sense]
[With this much real love, disbandment doesn’t make sense. SS really shouldn’t just sit still]
Yuho checked the fan community on his phone on the way to the drama meeting.
He thought there was no way going to a neighborhood restaurant would be caught, but without fail, sighting photos were uploaded to various SNS.
Seeing not only photos but actions and conversation content written in detail, Yuho felt a chill down his spine.
Thinking this would happen every time he went out with Inhan, he decided that affectionate acts outside the house should absolutely be refrained from in the future.
Yuho – [Did you see there were tons of photos on the community?]
Inhan – [ㅇㅇ I saw, you came out well in the photos hyung]
Yuho – [We should be careful outside]
Inhan – [What about inside?]
Yuho – [Huh?]
Inhan – [We don’t need to be careful?]
Yuho – [We should be careful both inside and outside]
Inhan – [ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
At Inhan’s rampage that continued as if he’d been waiting, Yuho lost confidence in whether he could control his behavior.
Whether knowing Yuho’s feelings or not, Inhan sent messages in succession.
Inhan – [Do you have time on a weekday next week?] [Between Mon, Tue, Wed]
Yuho – [Next week?] [I think I’ll know after my audition schedule comes out]
Inhan – [When will it be decided?]
Yuho – [Probably sometime this week?]
Inhan – [Once it’s decided, let’s go out on a free day]
No, is this guy trying to plaster all the communities with sighting posts. Yuho was worried but also felt good about Inhan’s date invitation.
It was just as Yuho was about to send a reply saying he understood. One more message arrived from Inhan.
Inhan – [By the way, it’s 2 days 1 night]
Yuho just closed his phone.
It seemed like nothing in this world could stop Inhan in his current state.
