After dinner Wooyoung and San both helped to clean up the table even though his mom insisted they go.

They were washing the dishes together. San doing the washing then passing it off to Wooyoung to rinse then his mom does the drying and returns it to it's spot in the cabinet.

"I've gotta use the bathroom" Wooyoung excuses himself briefly and San nods with a small smile.

"Just down the hall" San points towards the dark hallway and Wooyoung just smiles in amusement.

"I know" He gives a short laugh as he walks off.

San shakes his head in embarrassment when he remembers that the latter had taken a shower earlier and already knew where the bathroom was.

Once his mom hears the sound of the bathroom door closing she turns to San with a wide smile. San just looks back, his eye brows furrowed in confusion.

"What?"

"'What?' He's not like anything you described to me" She whisper shouts.

"What do you mean by that?"

"You made it seem like he's this narcissistic asshole who only cared about himself. He's so sweet. He even laughed at my jokes. No one laughs at my jokes"

San bites his bottom lip in thought. It was true, Wooyoung was definitely acting different. He isn't the same Wooyoung from KQ. He's much more nicer and interesting. San felt his walls crumble slowly the longer Wooyoung stayed.

Maybe giving him a second chance wouldn't be such a bad idea...

"I don't know. Maybe I was just angry and so I might've exaggerated a bit" He finally responds while handing her a rinsed dish to dry up.

"A bit?" She gives him a 'seriously' look and he just chuckles.

Later that night San's mom retires to her bedroom leaving the two former roommates alone in the dark living room. They were 'watching' a reality TV show but neither of them were actually watching.

San sat, legs criss crossed, on the couch while Wooyoung slumped down into the seat. Their attention on each other rather than the TV. San would side eye Wooyoung occasionally and Wooyoung played with a stray thread on the couch. He kept drifting in and out of his thoughts.

Should I try sparking conversation? Maybe I should subtly hold his hand. I should say something. I wonder what he's thinking about. God, why am I so awkward around you San?

"I've gotta get back to Seoul pretty soon" He finally speaks up, moving his head to look at the older.

"Oh" San didn't mean for his voice to come out so sad and disappointed but it did. Wooyoung smiles a bit at that.

"So then why'd you come all the way here?" San quickly adds, his cheeks flushed and red with embarrassment.

"You know why" Wooyoung laughs as he looks into the others liquid black eyes. The light from the TV flashing on it's surface.

"Yeah well remind me" San subconsciously leans forward and so does Wooyoung.

The purple haired boy just stays quiet for a few short seconds before he speaks up again. "I miss you" He says with seriousness and San gulps.

"I- I miss you too" He admits and glances at Wooyoung's lips. He wanted the kiss him again. He wanted to kiss him so badly but just didn't know if he was ready to let Wooyoung back into his life again especially after he ruined him. He promised himself that he would try and get over his former roommate but here he was, falling hard again.

Wooyoung began to slowly close the space between their faces but strangely enough San didn't move back or push him away. He stayed still as Wooyoung places his lips on his.

As cliché as it sounded, San swore he felt sparks fly when their lips connect in a passionate kiss. San's hand flies up to Wooyoung's cheek and Wooyoung holds the back of San's neck.

San's heart hammers in his chest as the kiss deepens and they begin to use tongue. His skin felt like it was on fire. Wooyoung lays him on his back and climbs on top of him, straddling his hips. Their lips disconnect for air and the younger attaches his lips to San's jawline.

The feeling of Wooyoung's lips against his skin again made him shiver. His breathing came out really hoarse and broken. San runs his hand through the thick purple hair of Wooyoung as he continued to nip and lick down to San's exposed collarbone.

Suddenly a loud thunder cackles outside snapping the both of them back to reality and they both flinch at the loud sound.

San bursts into laughter at their jumpiness and Wooyoung follows with a short laugh. He remained on top of San, just staring dreamily at him and San just blushes and averts his eyes.

"Let me take you out tomorrow" Wooyoung suddenly asks and San looks back at him with wide eyes.

"W-what?"

"Tomorrow, let me take you out. We can go anywhere you like. I'm not too familiar with Busan so maybe you could show me around?" Wooyoung reiterates while using his thumb to slowly draw circles on San's cheek.

San's smiles widely, his dimples displaying themselves, and he nods in agreement. "I'd like that" San knew that he was taking a risk just letting Wooyoung in this easy again but he was tired of always hurting and feeling depressed. He wants to be happy, even if it's just for a little bit.

Wooyoung places another short kiss on his lips. He could never get tired of kissing San's lips. They were just so perfectly shaped and addicting.

"So, where do I sleep tonight?" Wooyoung asks as he sits back up, San following his lead and sitting as well.

"Where do you wanna sleep?"

"With you obviously" Wooyoung pinches his side jokingly and San just rolls his eyes, a smile evident on his lips.

"Well if you insist. C'mon.." San then turns off the TV and takes Wooyoung's hand leading him to his room.

Wooyoung looks around in awe before settling on San's fairly large bed. "I don't know why but I expected your room to be a lot more bigger"

San shoots him a glare and Wooyoung chuckles before raising his hands in mock surrender. "I was kidding. Your room is great" He takes San's arm and drags the older on top of him on the bed.

"Nice save" San replies and gets under the blanket after Wooyoung does. He lays down facing Wooyoung who suddenly has this scowl on his face.

"Aish- what is this?" He groans as he pulls out a plushie from his side.

"That's shiber. Isn't he cute" San takes the toy from Wooyoung's grasp and squeezes his head a little.

Wooyoung couldn't help but coo at the sight. "You're so adorable" He says with a small laugh as he pinches San's cheek.

"I know"

The next morning, as per usual, San woke up really late. By the time he realized it was day break Wooyoung was no where to be found.

He sits up in his bed with a stretch and a yawn when he saw that Wooyoung wasn't in bed with him anymore.

He looked around a bit confused before going to the living room and then the kitchen. There, Wooyoung was busy making something on the stove. San just stood at the kitchen door and watched in amusement as his former roommate was dancing around the kitchen to 'Single Ladies' by Beyoncé blasting from his phone.

San couldn't hold in the laughter anymore. He bursts out in a fit of giggles when Wooyoung tried moving his shoulders up and down like Beyoncé did in her video.

Wooyoung who was completely startled by the laughter jumps a little, holding his chest in horror. "Ah-- don't scare me like that" He whines out when he sees that it was just San.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't hold it in anymore. What the hell was that?" San asks, still recovering from the intense laugh as he made his way to the taller.

"My inner Beyoncé" Wooyoung then turned down the music since it was way too loud.

"Whatcha making?" San asks as he leaned over to see what was on the stove.

"It's supposed to be scrambled eggs but... yeah" The purple haired boy laughs at himself as he takes it off the stove.

"That's scrambled eggs? Yikes. How about I make breakfast? So just sit back and admire a master at work mm?" The shorter then lightly pushes Wooyoung back and away from the stove.

"Oh really? When's the master getting here?"

"Shut up"

After breakfast they spend most of the day just lounging around and doing whatever. At around 4pm Wooyoung decided that it was time to go on their 'date' so they had to drive back to his hotel room so he could get dressed.

"So there's somewhere that we need to go to. I haven't been able to go because I just haven't really been in the mood but right now is absolutely perfect" San gushes to Wooyoung who was just driving out of the hotel parking lot.

"Really? Ok what is it" Wooyoung asks with a small smile. The fact that San was getting this excited over it must mean that the place is good.

"Blacklight carnival. It starts at around 5 since it gets pretty dark then they hang blacklights all over the carnival. Everything neon or white starts to glow. It's so cool, we have to go" San whines while tugging Wooyoung's arm.

"Ok ok we'll go, calm down" Wooyoung laughs at how childish he was behaving.

San celebrates by clapping loudly and doing a little dance. Once they arrive there, the plushie lover suddenly turned into a little kid in a candy store.

Wooyoung swore he saw San's eyes sparkle in amazement like in cartoons. He would admit that the carnival was pretty cool. People wearing all kinds of neon walked around. His white sneakers were even glowing in the dark as he walked beside San.

San kept rambling on and on about what games they were gonna play first and what rides were the most 'boring' but he zoned out and just stared at his face. Even in the dark he was as handsome as ever.

"Stop staring at me like that, it's weird" The shorter blushes a little then covers his cheeks and Wooyoung just giggles.

"Sorry sorry, I just got distracted. What were you saying?"

"Never mind, just follow me" San then takes Wooyoung's hand in his and they walk to their first game of the night.

By the end of the night, San had accumulated a number of plushies from all the games both he and Wooyoung had won. "More to add to my collection" He said as they walk back to the car.

"What time is it?" He speaks up again.

"6 minutes past 10"

"Dang, it didn't feel like we've been here that long" San says in awe as he throws all the plushies in the backseat and jumps in the front with Wooyoung.

"True"

When they get back to San's house they were both full on laughing at a story Wooyoung told. San wiped his eyes from the tears as they walk up the stairs to the door, a bunch of toys in his arms.

They enter the home and San notices that his mom's shoes were at the door which meant she must be home.

"Who knew hours at a carnival would be so tiring" San mutters as yawns and walks down the hall, into his room. Wooyoung also yawns and follows him.

After they'd both settled down in bed San turns to Wooyoung with a small smile. "Thanks for tonight. I had fun"

Wooyoung wraps his arm around San's torso and brings him closer before connecting their lips in a firm kiss, San smiles into the kiss and returns it. "Me too" He replies after they break apart.

San sighs in satisfaction and rests his head on Wooyoung's chest, cuddling into his side. He stays silent, just hearing his heart beat softly through the thin fabric of the shirt he lended him.

"I have to go back in a couple days" Wooyoung finally speaks up, breaking the silence.

San frowns a little as he remembers that Wooyoung had to return to Seoul soon. "Do you have to?" He asks with a pout.

"Yeah--"

"---you should come with me"

San looks up at him at the suggestion. Me, move to Seoul with him?

"It'll be perfect. We can live together and you can get a job, maybe go back to school if you wanted to" Wooyoung pets San's dark hair softly and calmly.

"To be honest, the idea doesn't sound totally horrible. But to leave my mom all alone here. She'd get lonely. And what if she falls sick? She needs me and I can--"

"I don't need an answer right this second San" Wooyoung cuts him off with a small laugh. "--just think about ok?" He places a kiss on older's head and this causes him to melt into Wooyoung's arms.

"Ok"

He was contented with how things were looking. He was still trying to recover from past wounds but he's sure that he'll be ok. As long as Wooyoung was by his side, he'd be fine.

A smile forms on his lips as he snuggles deeper into Wooyoung's side. His eyes flutter close as he falls asleep to Wooyoung whispering sweet nothings into his ear.
