Third person point of view
Haruto woke up and looked out of the window. It was still early for a Sunday, but he really couldn't sleep in. He smiled and got out of bed. He did his things and changed into gym clothes. He went to the gym which was two blocks away. He finished his workout and went back home. He changed out of them and put on some loose clothes.
He then walked out again and went to the mart. He got all the things he wanted and went back home. He put all the things in their places. He took a breather and then had some breakfast. He checked the time and Junkyu would take some more time anyway. He sat down on the couch and checked the messages.
He replied to the ones he wanted to and went to his room. He looked for something to wear. He didn't want to look too dressed up. He took a white shirt and blue jeans. He then found a green, black and white cardigan. He decided on them and put them on the bed. He then went to take a shower.
He finished and walked out rubbing his hair. He dressed up and thought it was fine. He went to the mirror and styled his hair after drying it. He checked his face and nodded. He went to sit on the couch and picked up his phone. Junkyu sent a message around 25 minutes ago saying he has started. He replied with an okay.
Haruto took a deep breath. He was checking the time every 5 minutes wondering why it wasn't moving fast and that it was too slow. He finally heard the doorbell ring and immediately rushed. He checked and it was Junkyu. He pressed the button and went to open the door. He saw Junkyu standing there in jeans and a hoodie.
He also had flowers in his hand. Haruto opened the door wider. Junkyu smiled and walked in. " Here ". He gave the flowers to Haruto. Haruto smiled and smelled them. " They smell good ". Junkyu smiled. " I couldn't come empty handed but also didn't know what to bring. It is my first time to be here after all ".
" More like first time in sober state ". Junkyu hit Haruto's arm. Haruto chuckled. He gave slippers for Junkyu to wear. They walked in and Haruto put the flowers in a vase. " Thank you ". Junkyu smiled. " My pleasure ". Haruto chuckled. " Sit down ". Haruto showed the couch. Junkyu went to sit while Haruto went to the kitchen and poured a glass of juice for Junkyu.
He walked back out and handed it to Junkyu. Junkyu took it. " You are being too formal ". Haruto chuckled and sat down. " I am trying my best ". Junkyu smiled and took a sip. Junkyu observed the living room. He didn't have the thought of looking around when he was there previously. But it was different now.
" Go look around ". Junkyu got up and walked around. He went from the living room to the kitchen. He then went to the other side. He knew that one room was the guest bedroom which he previously was in. The other was probably Haruto's bedroom. The door was slightly open. He only took a peek.
He went to sit beside Haruto. " You sure maintain it well ". Haruto smiled. " You want to have anything ? " Junkyu shook his head. " I had breakfast not long ago and you gave me this juice too ". Haruto nodded. Junkyu took a few more sips. " I actually wanted to ask something ". Haruto raised an eyebrow. " What is it ? "
" What is your daily life like ? And work life too ". " It is like any others ". " Come on. Tell me about it ". Haruto chuckled and told Junkyu about all of it. Junkyu listened attentively. " You really are very busy ". Haruto nodded. " So you and the team leaders are friends ? " Haruto nodded. " Tell me about yours then. I need to know too ".
Junkyu also described his daily life. Haruto nodded. " So you have an alpha friend who doesn't have a mate ? " Junkyu blinked. " Out of all the things I told you, that is the only thing you heard ? " Haruto moved closer. " How is he with you ? " Junkyu shrugged, feeling nervous. " He is definitely not interested in me. I know that very well. I am not his type ".
Haruto nodded but he still didn't like it that much. Junkyu decided to explain seeing Haruto's expression. " You are thinking too much. He is not in the same team and we meet during lunch from time to time and that is it. And maybe like once in a lot of days, we go for dinner or to the bar ". Haruto nodded. " Are you jealous ? " " Yes ". Junkyu's eyes went wide.
He didn't expect Haruto to agree just like that. He didn't know how to respond. Haruto saw his stunned expression and couldn't help smirk. He moved closer again. " I might be a nice guy but I do get jealous ". Junkyu nodded. " Then what about me ? You always go around meeting so many people and there are people who keep trying to hit on you too. What do I do about that ? "
Haruto's eyes went to Junkyu's lips and then up to his eyes. Junkyu noticed his gaze. " Come to me when you are jealous. I will coax you ". Haruto said in a low voice and Junkyu felt his heart flutter. He couldn't hold eye contact. He broke it and rubbed his neck. Haruto chuckled and moved back. His eyes landed on the clock.
" I will go make lunch ". Haruto got up, walking to the kitchen. Junkyu watched as he walked away. He bit his lip and got up, following Haruto. Haruto took out all the things he wanted and put them on the counter. Haruto removed his cardigan, putting it away. Junkyu stared at his arms which flexed with each movement.
He quickly looked away. Haruto then took out the cutting board and knife. Junkyu went closer. " Is there anything I can help with ? " Haruto shook his head. " Just sit there and keep me company ". Junkyu sat down on the other side of the island. Haruto's movements were very professional and swift. " Do you cook a lot ? "
" Not a lot. I make breakfast or dinner if possible on weekdays. During weekends I make lunch or dinner and both if I feel like it ". Junkyu nodded. " How about you ? " " I experiment from time to time during weekends but besides that nothing much. I am not as good as you ". " It is not that tough. I will teach you if you want me to ".
" Okay ". " Or even better- " Haruto looked up at Junkyu. " I can just cook for you ". Junkyu coughed and looked away patting his chest. Haruto gave him some water. Junkyu gave Haruto a sharp look and drank the water. Haruto went back to cooking. Junkyu really only kept him company as Haruto cooked.
