All Taeil wanted to do, was watch a movie.
taeil’s one love was computers. be ate, he breathed, he lived computers. It was the only thing that could ever challenge him. that is until he met johnny, the new happy go lucky barista at his favorite coffee shop.
"he was well aware of those feelings, but avoided them and tried his best to live without letting it get to him. most of the time it worked and johnny was proud of that. but ever since that small boy with pretty, sparkly eyes started walking into his room at night, right before sleep, only to play a sad song on the piano and leave... falling asleep started feeling a lot like falling in love."
"Pass this to him after I am done. Can you?" Taeil begged.
"You know he hates me." Taeyong whined, finding the favour ridiculous.
"Please?"
Taeil confesses with the help of his best friend Taeyong, but it goes all wrong.
johnny gets closer to his newfound crush through a series of touches: all gentle, all vaguely platonic, and all heart-achingly significant.
Someone keeps buying all the Yongpuffs, and a guy in Taeil's 10AM morning lecture won't bring his own pen.
Taeil knows there's no point in chasing after the unattainable. Especially when it takes the form of Gryffindor's Quidditch Captain, Seo Youngho.
When Donghyuck wakes up in the middle of the night struggling to breathe, Johnny has no choice but to take him to the hospital. Johnny's worried sick, but thankfully the nurse assigned to treat Donghyuck knows what he's doing.
a frequent caller to Johnny and Jaehyun's late night radio show always knows what Johnny needs to hear
Youngho, a modest piano teacher, is forced to live next door to Taeil's apartment for a few months, and that proves to be the most exhausting and wonderful experience of his life.
or
a "your apartment is next to/above mine and i can hear you and your partner dancing and singing and the bed moving and you two laughing and talking in hussed tones and it won’t let me sleep so i bitch about it to you 24/7 and one day it stops and one day turns to one week and then months and i haven’t seen you smile in forever please let me in, i’ve been knocking for ten minutes" au.
johnny hates people being touchy with him but he finds himself wanting taeil’s touch more and more often
Johnny is a cuddler. He is so used to giving the warmest hugs and the best cuddles, instead of being the receiving ends. A natural-born big spoon, Johnny thinks of himself, and he’s very proud of it.
Except this one night.
there was always a pair of a man and his son came through the main door of taeil’s workplace wearing flashy striking costumes every time.
and taeil, just like anybody else, couldn’t help but notice.
