Chapter Text
Seungmin is lying on his stomach on his bed, reading some book, and enjoying snacks from Chan-hyung, when Jeongin storms into his room without knocking. He looks so cute without makeup and is wearing a T-shirt that Seungmin once gave him, but even Jeongin being a cute hundred times, Seungmin still doesn’t like to be interrupted. And he won't fall for those fox eyes, no. Definitely no.
– Seungmin-hyuungg! – alpha sings loudly, and beta looks at him with displeasure, silently cursing the violator of his peace. – How can you lie here on our only day off this week? Come on, pay attention to at least one of your boyfriends.
He comes over and lays on top of Seungmin, pressing down on him with his weight and getting him away from his reading, causing Seungmin to grumble in annoyance. Jeongin stretches out on him to his full height, puts his head on his shoulder and looks into the book, indifferently running his eyes over the text. Then he sticks his nose into beta's odorous gland and rubs, irritating and tickling the delicate skin. Seungmin tolerates him exactly until the teeth come into play.
– Ya, what's your problem? – Seungmin is trying to throw the alpha off him, but for some reason, the giggling Jeongin seems heavy to him. His hard body is almost impossible to move, and Seungmin can't remember when he's matured so much. – Get off me you cheeky little alpha or I swear I'll hit you.
– How can you say that when I'm your favorite dongsaeng? – Jeongin teases him, but surprisingly, obey him, rolling over to the empty space on the bed next to Seungmin and seriously staring at his scowling face. Beta can no longer focus on the book.
– What? – Seungmin grumbles, not understanding why the alpha is staring at him. Does he have something on his face? Or is his hair a mess? – What do you want? Go and annoy someone else.
– Will you go on a date with me? – Jeongin asks, ignoring his last words, and Seungmin practically chokes on air in surprise and embarrassment. He prays his cheeks don't turn red, but the way Jeongin smiles contentedly proves just the opposite.
– Did you lose wish to Jisung again? – Seungmin asks just in case, and Innie pouts in annoyance.
– No, hyung. – he snorts, crossing his arms over his chest and staring into Seungmin's eyes insistently. – Don't you remember? You promised to go on a date with each of us.
– I didn’t promise, it was all of you who came up with this stupid joke with the queue. –Seungmin makes excuses and Jeongin frowns even more. The younger alpha is definitely offended, Seungmin can easily get it from his scowl and pursed lips.
– So you don't want to. – Jeongin immediately loses all his cheerful mood, becoming dissatisfied and annoyed. – Okay, God, I'm leaving. – he stands up, intending to leave, but Seungmin quickly grabs his wrist, stopping him. Oh damn, Innie just asked him out! And Seungmin is definitely not going to refuse his boyfriend. Not when he finally took notice of the beta and made it clear that he wanted to spend a romantic evening with him.
– Wait, Innie. – Seungmin calls, looking a little embarrassed at Jeongin. – Did I say I don’t want to, silly?
– So you… – Jeongin’s eyes shine brighter than the sun, and he eagerly sits next to Seungmin again, grabbing his hand and not taking his eyes off him. – Are you really will be going on a date with me? – he asks hopefully, and Seungmin feels a slight tingle in his chest as he looks at Jeongin’s beaming face.
– I will, harmful little alpha. – Seungmin nods, smiling involuntarily at Jeongin’s wide grin. – Just let me get myself together.
– Okay! – Jeongin nods eagerly and reverently squeezes Seungmin’s fingers in his hand. – Be ready in half an hour, hyung! I'll give you the best date of your life!
Seungmin chuckles as he watches Jeongin hop off to his room to change, and then he get out of bed as well to make himself look good. He wonders what Jeongin was up to?
Half an hour later they are already in the car, chatting casually about something, while the driver takes them to where the younger alpha ordered him. Music is playing softly in the car, and Seungmin already feels that the date is going to be perfect.
– Won't you tell me where we're going? – beta asks, looking at Jeongin once again. Seungmin just couldn't stop looking at him. The alpha put on light makeup before going out, highlighting his magical eyes and okay, Seungmin can't help but think he looks damn good. But don't blame him, it's just that Jeongin has gotten too hot lately.
– You'll find out soon, hyung. – alpha smiles back as he tucks his white bangs under his cap and pulls a pair of sheet masks out of his pocket. – Now don't move.
He puts one of the masks on the beta's face and his fingers gently slide down Seungmin's cheeks, making them pink and warm again. Jeongin is still smiling as he touches the sensitive skin behind Seungmin’s ears as he puts the mask over them, and then adjusts beta’s plush panama with a slight movement. Mischief and tenderness flicker in his eyes, but for some reason Seungmin cannot even say anything sarcastic in response.
– Here is it. We'll need a mask, hyung, it's going to be quite crowded there. – Jeongin says, and Seungmin tries not to meet his satisfied eyes.
Why the hell does Jeongin look so smug? This arrogant alpha was the one who used to be embarrassed by every look from the members before debut, what the hell has become of him now?
– What are you thinking about, hyung?
Seungmin doesn't answer, but he doesn't need to because the driver loudly tells them that they've finally arrived. Seungmin looks out the window, noticing the entrance to the amusement park, and maybe he's too eager to Jeongin get out, but it's not his fault, he just hasn't been to the amusement parks for a long time. They have so much work to do that Seungmin can't even remember the last time he had fun.
Jeongin asks the driver to come back for them in a couple of hours, and then he and Seungmin disappear behind an amusement park archway.
– Hurry up, Jeonginnie! – Seungmin urges the younger alpha on and points in the direction of some incomprehensible attraction, standing almost at the very entrance. – Let's go there! It looks cool!
– Okay, hyung. – Jeongin laughs at the enthusiastic beta, but his face is tender and he gently grabs Seungmin’s hand like he’s afraid of losing him in the crowd.
They decide to go in order to try each attraction, and even the long queues don't dampen Seungmin's mood. The smile never leaves his face, and Jeongin’s warm hand, holding his hand or waist, gives him a sense of security.
– I want to go to that carousel. – Seungmin shows the alpha to the imposing attraction, where loud squeals and screams came from, and Jeongin immediately nods, ready to fulfill his every whim.
After the merry-go-round, roller coaster, and crazy spinning stuff Seungmin can't remember the name of, the alpha suggests taking a break and buying something to drink. They wander along the narrow paths, enjoying the warm weather, and share a bottle of sweet water between them.
– Do you like this? – Jeongin asks, glancing at the beta, and Seungmin, seeing only his eyes, still detects some uncertainty in him.
– I really like this, Jeonginnie. – Seungmin answers, grinning so wide his eyes slit into slits. Jeongin immediately smiles back. – I'm happy to be here with you. With my favorite dongsaeng! – he teases and Jeongin immediately pouts.
– I’m also your alpha and boyfriend. – he grumbles, which makes Seungmin laugh. – Stop calling me a dongsaeng. Or a little alpha, because I'm almost the same height as you.
– But you're still my little alpha. – Seungmin laughs, taking pleasure in teasing him, but Jeongin suddenly stops and grabs beta's arm. He comes very close and takes both of Seungmin's hands in his own, looking into his eyes.
– I'll prove to you that I'm not a little alpha. – Jeongin speaks in all seriousness, and Seungmin even gets a little lost looking into his focused eyes. – I'll prove it to you, and you won't be able to think otherwise. And I don't care that I have to wait because I'm ready, hyung. I'll wait.
– Wh-what? – Seungmin asks, interested and confused in equal parts. – What are you waiting for?
– Chan-hyung. – Jeongin answers, but Seungmin still doesn't understand a bit of what he's saying. – And maybe Minho-hyung too, because he’ll want to be next. He won't give in to me, I know. Minho-hyung is too…too fond of you to give in. I would even fight him, but I know that I’ll lose.
– What? What fights?! What do you mean Yang Jeongin? – Seungmin frowns and pouts at the same time, but Jeongin only smiles reassuringly in response. – I don’t understand anything! Don't you explain?
– Later you will understand. – Jeongin replies and then points to the next attraction, changing the subject masterfully. – Do you want to go there?
They use almost every attraction multiple times, and Seungmin quickly forgets that strange conversation, enjoying the fun and alpha's company. In the end, he gets quite tired, and it seems to him that he has never laughed and shouted so much as today. Jeongin obediently caters to his every whim and even pays for him, and if Seungmin was initially embarrassed by this, he gradually relaxes, allowing the alpha to take care of him.
“You always take care of me, hyung,” Jeongin said then, looking at the beta, “Today is my turn.”
And he really does it by indulging Seungmin in everything. Seungmin even makes a mental note to circle this day on his calendar, because when else will Innie be so lenient towards him?
– I’ll win you a toy, hyung. – Jeongin stops by the machine with the plush toys and rummages through his pockets for change. Seungmin laughs, but looks at the machine with interest, looking at these soft animals. – Which one do you want? Pick whatever you need and I'll catch it for you. – he says with a hint of smugness and pride as he put a couple of coins and presses the button.
– Do you think you can? It doesn't look easy, Innie. – Seungmin asks and Jeongin looks a little offended, so the beta is in a hurry to correct himself. – Oh, I'm sorry! Of course my Jeonginnie is the best, he will definitely get me the best toy! – he teases the alpha and Jeongin rolls his eyes but smiles anyway.
Alpha uses a few tries before finally grabbing the adorable plush puppy he's targeting with the metal paw of machine gun. Seungmin stands there in anticipation, his eyes fixed on the toy dog, and he doesn't even seem to be breathing as he watches Jeongin pull it closer and closer. Well, he's far less excited about the stuffed dog than the fact that Jeongin is going to give it to him.
– Here it is! – alpha is delighted when the toy is finally in his hands and give it to Seungmin. He looks a little embarrassed and flustered. – It looks like you, hyung. So cute.
– Thank you, Innie! – Seungmin shines brighter than a Christmas tree and wraps Jeongin in a grateful hug, wrapping himself in alpha's arms and scent.
He can feel the fingers closing around his waist, which is so strange, but at the same time exciting and great, and Seungmin is glad that he’s now wearing a mask, because his red face could be seen by the whole world.
– Are you hungry? – Jeongin whispers in his ear, and Seungmin, too sensitive, flinches slightly. – We can buy corn-dogs and ride the Ferris wheel. And then we'll go home. You look tired.
– Yeah. – Seungmin pulls back, nodding, and smiles at Jeongin. – I'm a little tired, but your plan sounds great, Jeonginnie!
– Then let's go.
A few minutes later, Seungmin is munching on his corn-dog as he stands next to the alpha in line for the Ferris wheel. This attraction looks impressive and Seungmin already wants to get to the top and take a look at the city. It must be so beautiful there.
– God, hyung, you’re always like this. – Jeongin shakes his head at Seungmin and the beta looks at him as the alpha wipes the ketchup off his lip with his thumb. Seungmin blushes for the umpteenth time in a day, and Jeongin, the arrogant little alpha, suddenly licks his finger, making a joke about an indirect kiss. – Eat careful.
– Fool. – Seungmin grumbles, pulling the mask over his face in embarrassment and turns away when Jeongin laughs. – There are people here.
The queue is slowly moving. Finally, they sit in a round enclosed cabin, and Seungmin immediately leans against the window, fascinated by the panorama that opens up. When he's high enough, Jeongin allows himself to remove his mask, but Seungmin doesn't notice it right away. He enthusiastically photographs the city, and Jeongin is equally enthusiastic about photographing his hyung. His phone is quietly pointed at the beta, he takes some cute photos, and it doesn't escape him that Seungmin's face is visibly dimming, as if something upset him.
– What's wrong? – alpha asks, touching beta's thigh to get his attention.
– Cameras. – Seungmin shakes his head and Jeongin looks where he pointed. Down there, there are already several people filming them with phones or cameras, and this is not surprising, because sooner or later, they would still be recognized. They shouldn’t have taken off their masks there, in line.
– Come here. –Jeongin pulls Seungmin by the sleeve of his sweater and they sit on the floor, trying to fit into the small space of the cabin. Now they can see almost nothing but the sky, but then the cameras will not be able to catch them. It's stupid, but Seungmin giggles contentedly as he looks at the alpha's face in front of him.
– Thank you for this day, Innie. – Seungmin feels the need to tell the alpha how much he appreciates him. – I’m so happy to spend time with you.
– Me too, hyung. – Jeongin smiles. – I’ll come up with something cool next time again. – he promises in all seriousness and Seungmin laughs again.
– I believe you. – he nods and Jeongin looks at him fondly. It gets quiet, but the silence between them doesn't seem wrong.
Seungmin maintains eye contact for as long as he can, because then suddenly Jeongin’s gaze changes and the beta can't handle it. The alpha's fox eyes take on a mischievous, barely perceptible gleam, they stare at him fixedly, and Seungmin feels a strange flurry in his chest and stomach as Jeongin brings his face close to that of the beta.
– Innie? – Seungmin calls him in a whisper – for some reason it seems that words can destroy this still incomprehensible, but definitely exciting atmosphere.
Jeongin’s hand moves forward to Seungmin's face, rests gently on his chin, stroking, and pulls the mask down. And then warm lips press against Seungmin’s bitten lips with excitement, and oh god, Seungmin literally forgets how to breathe when Jeongin kisses him so tenderly. His lips gently tuck into Seungmin's lips like they're tasting it, which is weird but damn nice. And maybe Seungmin is losing his mind a little because he clings to the alpha with both hands and eagerly climbs into his lap. His fingers tangle in the many collars of Jeongin’s clothes, slide over his shoulders for support, and freeze on his chest, trembling slightly. Jeongin smiles as he pulls away, and Seungmin lets out an annoyed protesting moan, not wanting to let him go.
– Hush, hyung… calm down, I’m here. – alpha whispers, straightening the panama hat on the beta's head, and reverently looks at his slightly reddened lips and sparkling eyes. – I had no idea you’re so… sensitive.
– Shut up. – Seungmin cuts him off in embarrassment and kisses him again like his life depends on it. Jeongin kisses him back readily, hooking his teeth to Seungmin's lower lip and pulling gently, forcing the beta to open his mouth slightly to slide his tongue into the damp warmth. This excites Seungmin too much, and he groans softly again, allowing the alpha to take control of the situation. He feels Jeongin’s hands clench around his waist, trying to find his body under the oversized sweater, and he suddenly feels weak. It seems like he hasn't been lowered into beta space for a long time, since he became so cottony from simple touches.
They kiss for a long time on the floor of the cramped cabin as the Ferris wheel rolls inexorably. It's terribly uncomfortable and too little space here, but Seungmin is willing to endure if Jeongin will continues to torment at his lips and squeeze his waist and hips so tremulously. And maybe later he will be ashamed of all these sounds that he’s now making, but damn does that matter? The main thing is that now he feels so good.
– We're going down soon. – Jeongin whispers as he pulls away, and Seungmin, drunk on the kisses, doesn't immediately understand what he's saying. – Time to go home, hyung, do you hear?
He helps Seungmin put his mask back on and get out of the Ferris wheel, and then they, both embarrassed but eerily happy, after buying ice cream, they walk towards the exit, where the driver should be waiting for them. And even a couple of persistent fans do not spoil their mood.
In the car, Seungmin still feels awkward, his lips hurt a little, but Jeongin squeezes his hand gently, and all the awkwardness immediately disappears, as if it never happened. Beta moves closer to the alpha and puts her head on his shoulder, enjoying his scent and squeezing that plush dog in her hands. Jeongin intertwines their fingers.
And this is definitely their best first date with each other.
– When we get back… – Jeongin says quietly, checking briefly to see if the driver can hear them. – When we get back to the dorm, can you… stay with me for the evening and night? – he asks, then adds a little hesitantly: – Please?
Seungmin nods happily. The prospect of staying with the younger alpha today, sleeping with him and hugging him, he really, really likes. And he's not going to trade Jeongin’s cozy hugs even for his book, which he's been so engrossed in just a few hours ago.
