“ Lobby

@kim woobin [b/lm] Myungsoo groggily sauntered off to the lobby that morning, feeling not-so-excited about having to work for more than sixteen hours as room service and bartender.

As he arrived at the lobby, a few of his fellow bartenders greeted him good morning. He waved back, smiling at them. Though, he couldn’t care less about his co-workers, having been introduced to them the previous day. Myungsoo thought they were rather… uninteresting, and, uh, not his vibe.

Biting from his hot pocket, he reached for his time card at the rack. Just when he’s about to check in, a call of his name caused his sleepy eyes to widen. He turned, and was utterly surprised to see an old buddy of him.

“Woobin?!” he said, dumbfounded. “What are you doing here?”

@lee howon [rs] [[yeah xD Oh well we moved now~ ^-^v]]

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] [[We probably should have a while ago XD]]

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong looked at him again. He hesitated a bit but ended up resting his head on Hoya's shoulder, looking at the view. He smiled softly. "I actually don't have a lot of friends either...It feels nice to have someone to talk to..." He said and traced random patterns on the ground with his finger.

@lee howon [rs] (shouldn't we move this to the 'Lake/River'? xD)

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] He nods "Yeah, if we are having any problems we can come here. Just the two of us. We can talk about stupid old costumers." He laughs "you know if we are feeling down. To be honest.. I don't have many friends here." He says with a more serious tone. "I feel like I do now." He looks at Sungjong.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Somehow he couldn't help but feel he has just made thing worse. He glances at Sungjong and forces a smile himself then looks back at the lake. He walked over beside sungjong and looked down at him before deciding to crouch down beside him. "It's nice out here huh.. Peaceful." He glances over to see Sungjong's expression. "You and I should make this our special spot. What do you say?" He asks and nudges sungjong slightly with his elbow.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong blinked and listened to Hoya's explanations. "Oh..." Was all he said at first. Disappointed? Well yes Sungjong was disappointed. Hearing what Hoya said at the coffee shop he was expecting omething else. However, being really skilled at hiding his feelings Sungjong put on a smile and shook his head. "Don't worry hyung, I get it. You don't need to explain yourself, it's okay. And thing aren't awkward, just cleared up." He said, still having that smile on his face. He walked closer to the water an took his shoes off. He rolled his pant up and sat down on the ground before dipping his feet in the water.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Hoya's eyes shift toward sungjong. The two meeting each others gaze. "I didn't mean to make things so awkward between up." he rubs the back of his neck while trying to explain. "It's just, I think you are a really nice and good looking guy. I don't think you should beat yourself up about things that's all." Hoya looks more toward Sungjong.

Sungjong got up as well and left some money on the table before following Hoya toward the door. "Thank you..." He said softly and smiled slightly before walking out of the coffee. He stretched his body and took a deep breathe as they arrived at the lake. He stuffed his hands in his Pocket s and looked ahead of him, still a bit shy. HE blinked as he heard Hoya and turned his head toward. "Hm..neh?" He asked, bitting his bottom lip.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] "U-h ye..s! lets go." says urgently as he stands and straightens his clothes. He walks ahead of sungjong in embarrassment but still manages to muster up enough courage to hold the door open for the boy. Unable to now look him in the eyes after the sudden confession. The two walk alongside the lake, Hoya looks out at the glistening water as it ripples. "Um.. about earlier." he manages to spit out.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong's eyes widened slightly and quickly looked back down at his cup to hide his blushing cheeks. "Hmmm...T-Thanks hyung..." he said, embarassed but sincere. He chew on his bottom lip before finishing his macchiato. He glanced at Hoya before clearing his throat slightly and speaking softly. "Hm...are you done hyung? I-If yes then we can go to the lake".

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] "don't be jealous. people like your body type too." He nods reassuringly. "besides you're good looking" hoya shakes his hand a bit. "I can't understand why you're so worked up about it. You are more like my type." His eyes widen a bit and he covers his own mouth to be sure nothing else slips out. In disbelief he's actually just admitted that.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong chuckled. "Don't lie~ you have to stay in shape so of course you go often~ I'm jealous" He said, pouting slightly uncounsciously. "You look really manly like that...I want muscles too" He said and chuckled softly. "Well, I do hope so." He smiled at him and shrugged. "Not really. I work at the restaurant in the morning and for the room service in the afternoon." Sungjong looked down and played with the lid of his cup. "I...It's not as in I think I'm ugly or fat...it's.../sighs/...this things..." He said, pointing at himself "makes girls jealous. And I don't take it as a compliment. I'm a boy and a boy is supposed to be manly. Not cute and skinny." He said and shrugged. "Oh well...I got used to it...just have to live with it." He said and chuckled, trying to not make the mood drop.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Hoya looks as sungjong pokes his arm flexing his muscles a bit. "well not to often, I'm average" He says modestly while fishing for compliments. The rubbing the back of his neck he smiles and closes his eyes in embarrassment. "I'm usually not like that when I'm angry honestly!" He looks at sungjong turning his head a bit "two jobs? wow, that's rough." He mentions. Hoya raises his eyebrows in surprise at the comment. The boy was so good looking he thought. Why was he so hard on himself. "it's not the stuffed toy part that bothers me, back up.. You hate your face AND body? Why?" He asks in a shocked tone.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong laughed lightly and nodded. "Sorry." He said and smiled. He watched Hoya carefully while this one was speeking. He chuckled at the mention of working out and leaned over the table slightly and poked Hoya's arms. "Working out huh? I can see that~" He said and smiled. "Hm, And I also know that I shouldn't make you angry" he said nodding. "You're pretty scary when you do get angry" He picked his cup up and took a sip again before his lower lip. "Me?" He asked blinking a few times and looking up at the older boy. "Well, I'm a single nineteen years old boy, I also work at the room service but also at the restaurant as a waiter.My family just moved here a few weeks ago so I just started working at hotel. Hmmmm..." He thought for a bit. "I hate my face and my body in general, I love lemons and ice cream cakes. I really love animals and stuffed toys." Sungjong blinked and shook his head quickly, blushing slightly. "F-Forget about the stuffed toys part please..." HE said and smiled sheepishly, embarassed.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] "Heh" a puff of hoya's own breath left his lips with the slight chuckle at the mention of his new nickname. "ah, stop itt~" he waved his hand in front of his own face. "You are just making fun of me now" He smiles as his cheeks slightly flush. He then looks up thinking about the questions he's just been asked. "Well, I'm 22. I work as a room service clerk, but you already knew that.." Hoya taps the styrofoam cup in front of himself. "uhh.. lets see hobbies huh? I like to dance, and workout" he looks at the boy who's sitting in front of him. The sunlight beaming gently against sungjong's skin from the window to the side of them. 'Christ it's like this guy is from a movie or something!' he thinks to himself. 'Even the lighting is perfect!' He tries to think of something to make himself seem more interesting, but nothing comes to mind. "Tell me about you." he asks.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong chuckled, amused. He was blowing on his macchiato softly while watching Hoya struggling to start a conversation. He took of sip of his drink beforeplacing the cup down on the table in front of him. "So hyung~" He started and smiled, still looking at the older boy."Tell me about you" He said. "Like, your age, your hobbies, anything interesting about you. Like...do you often help people in distress? Should I call you Super Hoya?" He chuckled lightly and nodded. "Hmhm~ I'll call you Super Hoya hyung from now on."

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] 'handsome?' he thought to himself as his cheeks warmed a bit. Hoya patted him and nods. "y-eah heh, lets go" he repeats. The two walked side by side as they entered the coffee shop hoya kept stealing glances at the good looking boy beside him as they ordered. The two take a seat across from each other "so,..um." Hoya mutters before lifting the cap off his cup. The steam rises and he gets a whiff of the freshly brewed coffee he's just purchased. Hoya blows on the piping hot coffee then puts the rim of the cup to his lips and takes a sip. All while trying to thing of something to say so it wont get awkward between the two. All he can manage to keep repeating is a series of grunts, uh's and um's.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong shook his head quickly. "Ah no no no! If you're busy then it's fine, really." He said but blinked when he saw Hoya starting to change his clothes. He blushed and truned around quickly when Hoya took his dress shirt off. He bite his lips and tried to think about something else. "A-Alright..." He said and curse himself menally for stuttering. Sungjong turned around when Hoya was done. He smiled and nodded. "Neh, oh wait..." He said and walked to Hoya before lifting his hand and fixng his hair for him. He looked carefully and smiled. "Here, all handsome." He said and chuckled, not really noticing what he just said. "LEt's go~" He said and walked out to the coffee shop with Hoya.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Hoya tries to hold back the smile forming across his lips as the boy asks his question. He likes the sound of that 'Hoya hyung' yeah, its fitting. He thinks to himself. "Sure if you like.." Trying to sound as nonchalant as possible. Though the thought of making a cute new friend does excite him, his got to maintain his cool chic persona. "Oh well, I did have some plans today.." Lies with a seemingly straight face "but, I can put them off until another day. I think we deserve a break." Hoya walks over to his locker putting the combination into his lock before popping open his locker. "I'll just change out of my uniform then we'll go." He turns, his back facing sungjong as he pulls of his coat letting it slide off his arms. He then s each button on his clean white dress shirt before taking it off to reveal only a white tanktop. His broad back still visible through the thin tanktop. Hoya takes out a casual t-shirt from his locker and slips it over his head and straightens it out while turning back to sungjong. "ready?" he asks fixing a few misplaced hairs on his head.

(oops *busy ^^')

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong chuckled and pulled his hand back from the slightly too tight handshake. "Hmm, I believe I should call you hyung though. Right? Then It'll be Hoya hyung" He said and smiled before putting his jacket back on. "Hm...are you cusy now hyung? Are you done with work for the day? I was gonna go get a coffee and take a walk by the lake behind the hotel so if you want to join me..." He said before adding. "My treat, since you helped me"

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Hoya felt deeply sad for the visibly upset boy. He frowned without even realising as he listened with an open heart. "Come on, you had all rights to be so angry. Who could blame you? You wont have to do it again to prove a point just find me next time. I'll take care of it." He reassures sungjong. "besides it's all I could do to try and make you believe how sorry I am about earlier.." hoya rubs the back of his neck as he shifts his eyes toward the ground then slowly back in sungjong's direction. "oh right! I'm Lee Howon, but you can just call me Hoya" he introduces then takes the others hand and grips it firmly. Hoya's hands a bit rough from the type of work he does.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong looked at Hoya with slightly teary eyes, not caring anymore about acting strong or manly. He forced a small smile and got up too, bowing as well. "I-It's okay, don't worry about it. I shouldn't have gotten so angry either..." He said softly before standing back up. "I'm not brave at all..." He started, putting his shirt back on slowly. "It was just a desperate act to make him understand. I'm just wondering if I'll have to do that every time now..." He said and chuckled slightly. Laughingof himself was the only thing he could do now. "Don't say that. You're the brave one. Standing between someone you don't know and a drunk per*ert who threatens to get you fired. Thank you...a lot" He said and let out a soft and sincere smile this time. "Oh..." He cleared his throat slightly and wiped his tears away before holding his hand out and smiling softly. "Lee Sungjong"

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Hoya bit his bottom lip slightly as he looked at the boys chest with wide eyes. 'yep he's not a girl' he thought to himself and watched as sungjong rushed into the staff room. Hoya looked at the staring crowd of guests, he bowed then hurried into the room sungjong had just went. Closing the door behind them he looked at sungjong then bowed as low as he could and stayed in that position as he apologized. "I sounded like a fool earlier assuming you didn't have it as hard as I have. I was wrong, I'm sorry okay?" He stood up and rubbed his own lower back which was cramping from his bowing position. "Are you alright?" He asks as he walks over to sungjong "you are pretty brave!" he exclaims with a bright smile trying to cheer the humiliated looking boy up. "You're braver than I am that's for sure!" Hoya looks at sungjong to see if its working.

@lee howon [rs] Sungjong squeezed Hoya's jacket as if to say thank you. Butthe client was still as drunk as before and didn't have any intentions to let go. "And what would that manager of yours say if I tell him that you refuse to serve and please your clients huh?" Now move, I have some things planned with this girl." "That's it.." Sungjong mumbled and moved to stand beside Hoya. "Look here old man. I am not a freaking girl." He said coldly and took his jacket off before pulling his shirt off too, trying to not show how embarassing and humiliating this whole thing was. "Now, do you see any _____ or anything?" The man blinked and grumbled about liars and girls before pointing at Hoya and Sungjong. "You! I'll report you to your boss!" He said and stumbled outof the lobby. Sungjong bite his lips as he noticed the crowd of people watching tehm. He quickly grabbed his clothes and ran back in the staff room.

@lee sungjong [rs/rw] Hoya glances back just slightly at the boy as he feels a light grip against his coat. He turns he attention back to the man in front of them. "Sir you are mistaken, my friend here is just a worker and HE is not interested alright." putting emphasis on the gender of the boy standing so nervously behind himself. "You need to leave before I call security, or my manager and tell them you are harassing innocent people." Hoya wanted nothing more to get the man who's been causing him stress all day, but even more he feels the need to protect the boy behind him.
