❤ cafe

@Kim Seokwoo ʳᵉᵈ ᵖᵃⁿᵈᵃ seokwoo's silence wasn't something that worried him in any way. after all, both of them liked to spare their words and it was okay as the lack of noises had never been awkward between them. but glancing at the latter, seeing his eyes and stiff shoulder, and most importantly feeling his fingers wrapped tightly around his palm, he kind of knew that something wasn't entirely right. instead of walking further into the café, after the door closed behind their backs, yuto stopped in his spot right by the entrance and looked up at panda's face. "are you okay?", he asked, observing his companion's features and still holding his hand in his own. being fully aware of the fact that hybrids from the pet store suffered from different conditions, he knew he had to be notably careful with them. if seokwoo suddenly changed his mind and wanted to come back home, yuto wouldn't have any problem with taking him back there, even though he still would be a bit sad that their day together could end so quickly. "if you don't like something, just let me know. our plans aren't fixed."

@Adachi Yuto ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ “Maybe I want to see the cute pink on your face?” He grinned, he wouldn’t be lying if he didn’t say he wanted to show more of his other sides besides him being tired all the time, though it was time for them to leave, nerves and excitement bubbled under his skin, the car ride as much as it was just a car was even exciting for him; he watched outside the window enjoying the views of everything until they got to their destination. The panda was now even more nervous than before but he tried his best to hide it as he didn’t wish to go home he wanted to explore more, Seokwoo genuinely couldn’t remember the last time that he was outside and around this many people, it made him nervous, of course people come and go at the mansion but that was different, he was constantly around people who were like him, in this situation he noticed the stares of others at his unique features. The hand that took his was comforting as his heart hammered in his chest; He half hid behind Yuto, he was quiet and his head constantly whipping around to look at all his surroundings, that was until finally they lead into the cafe. He visibly relaxed, it was quiet, there wasn’t many constant loud noises of people or cars or what ever construction was happening.

@Kim Seokwoo ʳᵉᵈ ᵖᵃⁿᵈᵃ "stop it or I will blush", he said jokingly. any darker shade of pink might not cover his pale cheeks, but he still felt very warm inside hearing these few words coming from the latter's lips. despite not sharing many proper conversations with the hybrid, yuto enjoyed his company a lot and it felt even better knowing for sure that seokwoo also liked to spend his time with him. they were two, not very adventurous men content with the lack of greater surprises in their lives.
strolling along the corridors of the pet store, they gradually got closer and closer to the entrance door. "maybe. I would be lying, if I said I didn't doze off there once or twice during lunch break", he confessed. these were quite embarrassing moments in his life. yuto only prayed to all the gods he knew that his mouth didn't gape, when he slept, so he at least looked decent.
after informing the owner about their little journey, yuto got his car ready and after around ten minutes of driving it, he finally parked nearby their destination. they weren't in the city center, yet there were a lot of people passing them by on the pavement. reaching out for seokwoo's hand again, he led them into the cafe.

@Bang Yongguk ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ His frown was his only show on an answer, he wasn't sure, but he suddenly felt like he had a probable explanation for the lack of logical functioning that he had these days. Maybe he really should lay off the coffee.. Nah. It was a good suggestion though. Propping his hand up with his hand, he gives Yongguk a haughty look at being called a kid. "Hyung, I'm a senior. I'm officially gonna be stepping into the world adults, you know." he puffs up pridefully. "But yes, a coffee bar sounds like the kind of place my friends and I would hang out at." He carefully starts to unpack his materials from his bag, opening up his laptop and turning it on. Looking at his beloved drink thankfully as it was delivered to him. Picking up the drink and taking a careful sips, sighing at the taste. Youngkyun could live off of this. "The last thing you need is a dead body in the shop, right? Not very good for business." he takes another sip as he flips through his notebook. Pausing to look up at Yongguk curiously, puppy eyes on full display. "By the way, will you finally let me work here after I'm finished with testing?"

@Kim Youngkyun ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Yoonguk bore a light smirk. "You sure about that?" Of course, he was only ing with the college student, knowing that coffe might stunt growth, but that was in cases much younger than Youngkyun. There was no evidence it was any worse for your cells than soda, and that was saying something in favor of his favorite drink. "Sounds like a party. I'll cater for you. A bunch of college kids would probably love a coffee bar, am I right?" The shop owner continued, pouring the scaldingly hot drink into a large mug, coming around to place it on the table for Youngkyun. He didn't trust the sleep-deprived kid not to spill it right now. "Shut up - You get free stuff all the time without any buttering." He snorted, taking back the empty plate with him. "Now hurry up and start on that coffee, you look like you're going to die in a few minutes if it doesn't hit your system.

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ ( lol yeah )

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ -whines quietly as i flush the toilet, stumbling to get onto my feet and brush my teeth, looking at you-
w-water.. please.
-mumbles before trudging to sit on the edge of my bed weakly, careful to not lose balance-

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ (-> Jisung's room?)

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ *cringes seeing you run to the toilet first thing once back in your room*
Can I get you anything Ji? Something to drink, food?
*hesitates from going into your room seeing it as something private*

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ ill consider staying here with him then. so i have the support i need.
-once we arrive at my room, i go to the bathroom and vomit into the toilet, whining at the pain in my head and throat-

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ *nods unsure how I feel about that since Hongseok is the dad after all*
Please do that when you can. Ji you'll need all the support you can get from him. Especially if you're pregnant

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ I still stay at the shop for now. We havent discussed much about that yet.
-shrugs before stumbling a little in between my steps, clinging to your arm-
ow...im light headed again

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ Maybe not. But I can make sure you get home safe. Do we go to the shop? Or do you officially live with Hongseok?
*wonders not knowing where the other lived anyway*

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ then if youre not my mother, you cant make me go to bed!
-grins innocently as i walk alongside you, humming happily-

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ *shrugs at the playful comment*
Not your mother but your friend. Come on
*wraps an arm around your shoulders so you can't fall guiding you back*

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ -squeaks in surprise as im being pushed out, blinking a little before walking-
careful.
-giggles softly before rolling my eyes-
what are you, my mother now?

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ No problem at all Ji
*pushes you out of the café and back towards the shop seeing how sleepy you had already gotten*
To bed with you

@Bang Yongguk ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ "Coffee doesn't kill your braincells," he squints, though his tone sounds unsure. His gaze following the elder male expectantly as he gets to work making his coffee, already feeling much more awake and less like a zombie than he was feeling his entire way to the shop. Turning to walk to his usual table to settle his bag on it, rolling his shoulders as he walks back to the counter, perking up at the question directed at him. "Yes," he breathes out thankfully. "Just a few more months and I'll burn all my textbooks and dance on the ashes." His lips curling into a wry smile at the thought. The presentation of food drawing him out of his thoughts, his gaze flicking from Yongguk to the offered pastry, a touched look crossing his features. "You're a god-send, hyung. And this time I'm not just buttering you up for free stuff, I actually mean it." the pastry already half gone in a few bites as he hums at the taste.

@Kim Youngkyun ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ "Pleased with the business, concerned for your brain cells." Guk retorted quickly, pushing himself up and moving over to the coffee maker to prepare the strongest brew that he could for Youngkyun. He messed with the machine as he listened, shaking his head as his lips pressed together. "Well, then. Let's just be glad it's almost over, right? Finally your last semester." He asked, only to make sure that he was correct. He was about 99% sure, but he did see a lot of students and make a lot of small talk; it was obviously the season that he heard this a lot. After getting his machine working hard, Yongguk moved towards a small oven, carefully selecting a freshly baked pastry and placing it on a plate, pushing it to the college student. "You look like you haven't eaten properly in a week. I know it's just sugar and carbs, but you need something in your stomach."

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ -smiles softly before nodding again, moving to stand up-
thank you again for the milkshake..
-smiles as i toss my trash away into a trashbin-

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ *shakes my head with a soft chuckle*
I mean I'm tired too I agree. Guess I should bring you back home
*frowns not wanting you to puke up everything you ate*

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ -giggles softly as i purr at the touch, laughing a little at my messy hair before adjusting it-
im a little tired. hopefully i dont puke up my food later.

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ Because today we're at a café together. It makes sense
*teases you leaning in to ruffle your hair and totally mess with your hairstyle*
You look a bit exhausted. I guess pregnancy is taking a toll on your body already

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ -pouts as i run my fingers through my hair to get it out of the way of my eyes-
ill try.. but not today.
-sighs and shakes my head propping my head on my palms-

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ *keeps the straw in my mouth biting on it occasionally*
No it doesn't Sung. But it really sounds like you might wanna talk about this some time
*nods understanding that it was difficult to decipher*
You'll get there Ji don't worry

@Bang Yongguk ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Stopping as he reaches the counter, he rests his hands on the cool surface. Pondering wether or not he should hassle the other for something to eat as well, maybe some bread, or some cake, before deciding against it. “Your coffee is the only thing that can get my body moving anymore, you should be happy I give you so much business.” His gaze dropping to meet Yongguks cheekily, shoulders drooping at being reminded of the struggles that this semester held for him. “Midterms for now, unfortunately,” he grumbles unpleasantly, already looking forward to when he took all of his tests and got it out of the way. He was glad that this was his final semester and he would kiss the stressful life of studying endless for tests he’ll barely pass goodbye forever.

@Kim Youngkyun ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Yongguk didn't even break his sip for Youngkyun's arrival; It was far too commonplace. Instead, he offered a hum in greeting, finishing his drink of hot, bitter coffee and only laughing once his throat was clear. "Quad shot with a splash of cream, coming right up - Though at this point, I'm convinced your body only operates on caffeine, Kyun." Yongguk leaned over the counter lazily, despite his body being wide awake, resting his chin on his hand as his brow quirked upwards. "Midterms or finals? Oh, wait - Is it time for your dissertation?" Yongguk's tone remained jovial even though he was genuinely asking what assignments were keeping him up. He was glad he'd dropped out of college and missed all this hassle.

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ it.. doesnt?
-pouts as i fiddle with my straw absentmindedly, my gaze lowering slowly with a small whine-
he takes care of me and looks after me like he normally does.. i cant tell of he sees me that way or not..

@Han Jisung ˢᵠᵘᶦʳʳᵉˡ Why not?
*muses grinning a bit as you so obviously hate the idea, nods realizing you might not have established any titles*
Does he treat you like you're together? Just the fact that you're becoming parents doesn't... make you a couple Ji

@Christopher Bang ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ unsweet- whyyy!
-pouts as i prop my head on my palms, whining faintly-
my relationship.. hmm..
-hums in thought before shrugging a little-
i dont know. i never really thought about that. he /is/ the father of my child.. i guess we are together? unofficially?
