Wu Yifan has always been a person who has very clear ideas and who is able to take very fast decisions. Especially very important decisions. Like what café to choose amongst the billions coffee shop there are near the art gallery where he works.

The stared at the sign of the café for like two seconds before that yes, that was the perfect one.
Wu Yifan has also always been very good at understanding when a situation could get dangerous. And that decision was what Yifan would define the beginning of the end.

“Welcome to the Milky Way café!” said a cheerful voice when Yifan entered the coffee shop.
He turned around to face the counter and saw Yixing smiling with those adorable dimples that always appears when he smiles in that specific way. Not that Yifan payed attention. Nope.

“Can I help you pick what to order today?” asked Yixing smiling.

“No, thank you. You know I usually always get the same thing.” Replied Yifan smiling back.

“So… a cup of iced Americano, right?” asked the guy.

“Yes, a cup of Americano, please” answered Yifan.

“Booooooring” answered a voice that clearly didn’t belong to the guy Yifan was looking at.
Yifan turned around and saw the other two barista looking at him with a “I’m not impressed” face. Yifan had to admit he wasn’t too happy about it.

“What’s so boring about an Americano?” he asked the two baristas.

“Oh, you know. You have a choice of like one million drinks and you pick an Americano. BORING” replied the barista with a cat smile, whose smile, Yifan got to know, is Jongdae.

“Jongdae, stop. You’re annoying our client” said Yixing.

“Yes, Jongdae. You should stop. Can’t you see our client is clearly interested in something, or maybe I should say someone, else rather than the coffee?” said the other guy, called Minseok, raising his eyebrow.

“Minseok, what do you mean?” asked Jongdae feigning innocence.

“Nothing. What do you think I mean?” questioned back Minseok.

“I thought you meant that Yifan is interested in Yixing, but maybe I’m wrong.” Replied Jongdae.

“You’re totally wrong. Why would you think something like this?” asked Minseok with a totally fake surprised face.

“I really don’t know. Could be that Yifan is looking at our Xingxing with hearts in his eyes?” replied Jongdae.

“Wait a second. What are you even talking about?” interrupted Yifan looking at Yixing with a worried face.

“Guys, seriously. What are you trying to say?” asked Yixing with a troubled face. The face someone has when he didn’t understand a single word you said so far.

“Xingxing, my dear. You know that during our lifetime on Earth it may happen that someone finds us attractive and wants to do stuff with us. It happens. It’s nature.” Replied Minseok.

“No. NO. Wait. I know where you’re getting and… no” retorted Yifan.

“I swear I still don’t get what you’re trying to say” said Yixing.

“Don’t worry, babe. Everything is okay and nothing is wrong.” Replied Minseok smiling sweetly.

“Guys, seriously…” tried to said Yifan.

“You know I don’t approve, right? I will never let you go out with my baby unicorn” said Minseok.

“WHAT.” Stated Yifan.

“What?” asked Minseok.

“Your baby unicorn?” asked Yifan back.

“My baby unicorn.” Answered Minseok.

“Who has a unicorn?” asked a voice Yifan seriously started to hate. For no reason. Nope.

“LUHAN!” was the chorus the question of Luhan got.

“Who is even your unicorn?” asked Jongdae.

“Your unicorn is a person?” asked Luhan.

“Your unicorn is my person?” asked Yifan with a scandalized face.

“YOUR PERSON?” screamed Minseok.

“Yifan has a person?” asked Luhan.

“Luhan, Yifan thinks Yixing is his…”

“Not true!” replied Yifan.

“C’mon, man. It’s obvious.” Said Jongdae.

“Who’s a unicorn?” asked finally Yixing.

“Seriously, Yixing?” said everyone.

“Did I miss something, maybe?” asked Yixing assuming an adorable puppy face. Not that Yifan noticed. Nope.

“No, Yixing. Just Yifan who doesn’t want to admit to like y-“ replied Jongdae.

“I GOTTA GO. BYE” said Yifan leaving the café almost running.

“Did we see something we weren’t supposed to say?” asked Yixing.

“I think he was just late.” Replied Luhan smiling.

“We totally did say something we weren’t supposed to say.” Said Jongdae.

“Hell yes we did” replied Minseok smiling with a face that Yifan would be scared of if he had a chance to actually see it.

“Welcome to the Milky Way- oh, hi Yifan.” Said Minseok going back to play with his phone.

“Aren’t you too happy to see me?” asked Yifan frowning.

“Not you’re fanboy. Sorry not sorry.” Replied Minseok shrugging.

“Is Yixing here?” asked Yifan looking around the café.

“Actually no. He’s late. I think he forgot he has to come to the cafè. That wouldn’t be the first time.” Replied Minseok without raising his eyes from his phone.

“Gotcha. I’m going then.” Said Yifan. “See you.” He added when he was close to the door.”

“Wait, you’re not going to order anything?” asked Minseok. “C’mon. No one’s here. No one was here. No one is going to be here. Order something. Let me earn money.” Said Minseok using his puppy face.

“Well… can I have tea please?” asked Yifan.

“Tea?” asked Minseok back.

“Yeah, tea?” replied Yifan.

“What do you mean with tea?” asked Minseok.

“I usually mean tea when I say tea.” Claimed Yifan.

“Tea?” asked Minseok.

“You know, that thingy Asians are so obsessed with?” question Yifan back.

“You mean coffee?” asked Minseok.

“No, I’m pretty sure I mean tea.” Stated Yifan.

“Yes, but what type of tea?” asked Minseok.

“Normal tea?” replied Yifan.

“What is normal tea?” asked Minseok.

“Plain tea. With nothing weird in it.” Said Yifan.

“Define weird.” Said Minseok.

“Oh, gosh. I just want tea.” Replied Yifan.

“What tea?” asked Minseok.

“Just pick a tea!” shouted Yifan.

“I can’t pick your tea!” said Minseok.

“Pick my tea!” replied Yifan.

“No, I won’t! Choose your tea!” said Minseok.

“I would go with orange scented black tea.” Said a different voice.

“I agree. Wait…” replied Yifan.

“Yixing! You made it!” exclaimed Minseok.

“Yeah, sorry. I got stuck in the traffic jam.” Replied Yixing.

“You don’t have a car, though.” Said Minseok.

“I came by foot.” Replied Yixing.

“Exactly?” asked Minseok raising his eyebrow.

“There was traffic.” Stated Yixing.

“Of people?” asked Minseok.

“Yeah?” replied Yixing.

“On the sidewalk?” asked again Minseok.

“Definitely.” Replied Yixing nodding.

“Sorry to interrupt you but I wanted to asked Yixing something.

“Oh, hi Yifan!” said Yixing cheerfully.

“You saw me already.” Replied Yifan.

“Yeah, but I didn’t say hi properly.” Said Yixing.

“Okay, then… Hi there, Yixing.” Greeted Yifan.

“Hi, Yifan.” Replied Yixing.

“Cool. What did you want to ask Yixing?” asked Minseok.

“Right. Are you free tonight?” Yifan asked looking straight into Yixing eyes.

“Actually I’m not. I have to bunnysit.” Replied Yixing.

“Bunnysit? Is that even a word?” asked Minseok.

“Dunno. One of my friend’s friend got a bunny and he asked me if I could keep it for a night since he has to go on a one-day-trip” explained Yixing.

“And you said yes?” asked Yifan.

“Of course I did.” Replied Yixing.

“Of course you did.” Said Minseok.

“Wait… who’s the friend whose friend asked you to keep his bunny?” asked Yifan.

“Luhan’s best friend!” replied Yixing smiling.

“Obviously. And you’re going to stay where precisely?” asked again Yifan.

“At Luhan’s house, of course.” Replied Yixing matter-of-factly.

“Of course.” Said Minseok.

“So… why can’t Luhan keep the bunny if it’s Luhan’s best friend’s bunny?” pointed Yifan out.

“Because Luhan doesn’t like bunnies.” Replied Yixing.

“I doubt it.” Replied Minseok.

“What do you mean?” asked Yixing.

“Just that you look like a bunny and Luhan doesn’t’ dislike you at all, if you know what I mean.” replied Minseok.

“And why are you going to stay at Luhan’s house?” asked Yifan.

“Because it’s comfortable.” Replied Yixing.

“No, you’re not going to stay there.” Said Yifan.

“Yes, I am.” Stated Yixing.

“Yes, he is going to stay there because Luhan is not a boring person and I like him.” Said Minseok.

“No, he’s not.” Replied Yifan.

“Yifan, you’re late.” Stated Yixing.

“No, I’m no- crap I’m late!” said Yifan storming out of the door.

“So… you’re going to stay at Luhan’s house?” asked Minseok.

“Nope, I’m not.” Replied Yixing smiling.

“Then why did you tortured Yifan claiming you would stay there?” asked Minseok.

“Because he’s cute.” Replied Yixing shrugging.

“I don’t agree with your tastes in man, but it makes sense.” Replied Minseok.

“He is cute.” Stated Yixing.

“Whatever, Xing.” Replied Minseok.

“Welcome to the Milky Way Café!” said Yixing as soon as Yifan opened the door.

“Hi there, Yixing!” replied Yifan smiling.

“Someone is in a good mode today. What happened to you? Did you finally convinced someone to have a date with you?” asked Minseok smiling.

“Nothing like this. It’s related to work.” Replied Yifan.

“Oh, hi Yifan.” Said a voice coming from the very far corner of the room.

“Sorry, Luhan. Didn’t see you there.” Replied Yifan turning around.

“No problem, man” said Luhan back.

“Why are you here?” asked Yifan trying to hide his annoyance seeing that the guy he doesn’t really like is there.

“I was trying to convince Yixing to go on a date with me” said Luhan matter-of-factly.

“Date. Date? A date like in a date?” asked Yifan starting to freaking out. He was already picturing in his head Yixing and Luhan on a date. With Yixing laughing openly. And Luhan closing the distance between his and Yixing’s face. And… he clearly needed to stop.

“Yeah, usually a date is a date” replied Luhan with an amused face.

“But… a date. With Yixing. Is like a date with a capital ‘d’. A Date. Daaaaaaate.” Explained Yifan with a pained expression.

“Yeah, he told me he would go with me once he finishes working.” Replied Luhan without realizing the pain he inflicted on the poor Yifan.

“Oh, got it.” Said Yifan sadly. “And in what would consist the date?” asked him.

“You know… the usual. Dinner and then movie.”

Yifan seriously started to freak out. The images his head was already filled of came back even strongly and more vividly. He started seeing Yixing trying to pick what to eat and asking Luhan for help. He saw Yixing and Luhan sharing popcorn and Luhan using the chance to grab Yixing’s hand and hold it. He also started to see Luhan caressing Yixing’s thigh, and his hand getting farther up. And farther. And… NO. Yifan tried to stop the images.

“Man, looking at his lost and desperate face I would say that you broke him.” Said Minseok almost on the verge of laughing.

Yifan went out of the café without saying a world.

“He didn’t order anything though.” Said Yixing pouting.

“He will come back” said Jongdae and Minseok at the same time.

After 5 minutes Yifan storms into the coffee shop with a fighting expression.

“You won’t go out with Yixing.” He claimed slamming his hand against the table Luhan was sitting at.

“And who are you to decide whether I can go out with Yixing or not?” asked Luhan raising his eyebrow.

“Wu Yifan. Yixing’s date.”

“Wait… WHAT?” asked Jongdae, who started his shift in the time being, from the kitchen.

“I’m gonna take Yixing on a date. And you cannot stop me.” Said Yifan.

“I’m totally gonna stop you. You’re boring. You like iced Americano. Iced Americano! Do you see my problem here?” Minseok asked Yifan.

“Actually no, I don’t. But I don’t really care” replied Yifan shrugging. “Yixing, we’re going” he claimed taking Yixing’s hand. “Now.” He added starting to tug Yixing along with him.

“Guys, I’m going!” screamed Yixing while being dragged away.

“Our baby is growing up.” Jongdae faking to dry his tears.

“Our Xingxing.” Replied Minseok.

“My date.” Said Luhan.

“Sorry, man. He was never your date. He was already planning to go out with Yifan. He just didn’t know it.” Explained Minseok.

“Yup, we don’t agree. But our baby needs to take his own decision in love matter.” Said Jongdae.

“My former date is happily smiling at a super tall Chinese guy. I don’t approve.” Stated Luhan.

“Neither do we. But shit happened.” Said Minseok shrugging.

“So… when did you decided you wanted to take me on a date?”

“I think from the very beginning, but your super nosey coworkers kept meddling and confusing me. And then there is that Luhan thingy who kept being there. And you being super happy near that human being. And me being jealous. And you being apparently unaware of everything. And yes. Basically.” Said Yifan.
“Cool. So what are we going to do on our date?” asked Yixing.

“I have no idea. I haven’t planned anything. I just happened to hear something that made my brain went in a short circuit. And things happened from there.” Explained Yifan.

“Then what about walking around the city and then decide where our heart will take us?” proposed Yixing.

“Sounds good.” Said Yifan.

“Let’s go!” said Yixing tiptoeing to stare directly into Yifan’s eyes.

“Why are you so close?” asked Yifan.

“You’re cute.” Replied Yixing.

“That doesn’t answer my question.” Said Yifan.

“Of course it does.” Replied Yixing. “Can I kiss you now?” asked Yixing.

Yifan blushed profusely and started gasping while trying to say something.

“Can I?” asked again Yixing.

“I suppose you can.” Replied Yifan blushing again.

“Okay then!” said Yixing before closing the distance between Yifan’s lips and his.

“I guess I could get used to this.” Said Yifan with a happy face.

“I’m totally fine with it.” Stated Yixing nodding.
