'a kiss between exes who meant to walk away' ♡

for this ask meme. for sangwoo & youngie.

'i should go,' he whispers into their shared breath, the depths of his voice like gravel and velvet all at once, as he wills his eyes away. to anywhere, anywhere that isn't sangwoo's gaze, molten and unwavering.

go, his mind screams. go, his limbs urge. go, his heart pleads.

but youngho finds that he can't (won't?), not when there isn't anywhere to go – trapped between the wall and sangwoo. it's too close, too intimate. too familiar to be considered strangers, too much history to be reduced to just 'exes'. the label doesn't do them justice. he looks up again, at a face that he knows well, that he still loves. youngie can feel the thundering beat of his pulse, his heart free-falling from zero gravity the way that it always has. sangwoo’s face searches his, silently pleading.  tell me you don’t love me. tell me to move on.  he's emboldened by their proximity, stepping forward and taking sangwoo's face into his hands - fingers splaying across his cheeks when youngie finally kisses him, the way he's wanted to for so long. the first brush of their lips sets off their very own fireworks, electric and dazzling. sangwoo's are warm, soft and also firm against his that's different than he remembers, but just as delicious. it's one kiss, but it’s his answer, his silent confession. it ravishes him, banks the low levels of desire that simmers in his core.
