"Okay. Sugar level?"
Hold the sugar, please, you're sweet enough for both of us - no. He did not just get possessed by the spirit of Jongin's patented pick-up lines for creepy perverts. Jongdae's raised eyebrow is telling him otherwise, though.
"Not much. Half the sugar for the mocha latte and 70% for the cappuccinos."
All in all, he takes five minutes and he's pretty sure the guy behind him is dying to punch him in the face, but he goes back to their table with the hugest grin ever.
"Guys, I think I'm in love."
"I forbid you from falling in love!" Jongin slams his hands down the table, glaring. "I've got first dibs on Lu Han!"
"Jongin, I'm really sure the tall guy who comes and picks him up everyday is his boyfriend."
"... You guys come here everyday and you didn't tell me? I'd like to redefine our terms on this friendship, if you please."

Joonmyeon thinks the reason why none of his previous flings worked out is because the degree of mutual fascination is directly proportional to hours spent together. And he's only ever spent time with his books, his patients and sometimes, his friends. So he resolves to spend at least three times a week studying at the coffeeshop, with or without company, and hope that things will sort themselves out in the right direction.
After two weeks, when Jongdae still looks at him like a pedophile scouting for fresh, young meat, he decides to take a more proactive approach. After all, how can he save a life if he can't be courageous every once in a while?
"Here's your Americano."
"Jongdae, if you were ground coffee, you'd be espresso because you're so fine."
"Er, wow. That's a new one."
That's a drastically different voice from the one he's expecting. He turns up and sees Lu Han's mildly amused expression staring down at him.
"Forget it," he mumbles, picking up his books and running out. He's already feeling stupid and disoriented by the time he reaches the street across, but that's when he hears him screaming, "Hey, you! You forgot your coffee!"
Joonmyeon wishes he could grind himself into dust and erode somewhere into the pavement. Instead, he slows his feet, braces himself and turns to meet Jongdae's breathless form. "I-I'm sorry. And thanks. I should probably get going. Again, I'm really sorry for the trouble."
"Look, it's okay." Jongdae's panting slows. "I think you're cute, too. And I've heard way better things than your 'hold the sugar' line, but that'll do."
Joonmyeon's heart stops. He actually heard that? But that was over three weeks ago! Scientific logic be damned, he is so going to incense his entire room and pray to the Buddhist gods to scrub Jongin's essence of horny maniac off him.
"... Like?"
He cautions to take a step closer, hoping that Jongdae would somehow know CPR when he blacks out on the street.
Jongdae grins, that charming, feline smile enough to make Joonmyeon's stomach knot itself into non-surgically removable pretzel twists. "Java number I can call you up at? Because I've been thinking about you a latte."
"Are you sure you really work in a hipster cafe? I'm pretty sure the owner would lynch you for saying things like that."
Jongdae shrugs. "Hey, I'm only working to pay the bills. Yixing is working to get himself through culinary school, and Lu Han's probably just there to fund his plushie sex toy addiction."
"... Come again?"
"Oh, I will be. But maybe after three or four dates, what do you say?"
