Happy New Year (1/?)

[anonymous]

Tao is a hopeless romantic. He believes in things like fate, soulmates and love at first sight. He thinks these are things that make the world go round because it centers on love and one can never go wrong with love.

Jongdae snorts unattractively, spilling rice all over the tabletop, as Tao recounts these things, eyes dreamy and sparkling with fresh yearning for them. He sobers up when Baekhyun shoves him in a not so gentle manner and, even more so, when Tao shoots him with one of his death glares, one of the minor ones, and zips up his lips in an effort to pacify him.

Tao then carries on with his idealistic tirade, continuing on to how he imagines his first kiss to be.

“It will be by a balcony, underneath the twinkling stars,” Tao giddily shares. “We’d be having champagne because it’s some formal event and we’d be wearing tuxedos and he’d be all handsome and I’ll be in love and pliant and-“

Jongdae snorts again and, this time, water shoots out of his nose. Baekhyun makes a face and shoves Jongdae sprawling to the floor.

“You’re disgusting!” Baekhyun shudders and gets up to wipe Jongdae’s remnants off the table with a clean rag.

“And rude, too,” Tao’s glare is even more menacing than the one earlier and Jongdae actually feels himself cowering.

“I’m sorry!” Jongdae says when he manages to stand up, dusting the back of his jeans. “Just... you talk about kissing like it’s some planned thing, like you believe things will go according to how you imagine it to be.”

“Jongdae, leave him alone,” Baekhyun sternly says as he brings their plates to the kitchen. “Tao can dream about his first kiss however he likes.”

Jongdae rolls his eyes. “This is why he’s like this because you allow him to be,” he argues. He turns to Tao. “If you carry on like this, you’ll be sorely disappointed because, in love, nothing turns out the way it’s supposed to.”

Tao looks at Baekhyun for answers to the questions littering his eyes and Baekhyun sighs. “All Jongdae is saying that maybe you should be a bit less…”

“Impractical? Impossible? Unrealistic? Stupid?” Jongdae lists.

“Yes, thank you, Kim Jongdae Dictionary,” Baekhyun rolls his eyes. He’s turning back to Tao before he looks at Jongdae again. “And stupid means differently, dimwit.”

“It’s practically the same thing,” Jongdae insists.

“I am not being stupid!” Tao pouts, earnestly pleading with Baekhyun to agree with him.

“You’re not,” Baekhyun promises him before shooting Jongdae a glare of his own. “Just… maybe you can tone it down a bit? We just don’t want you getting disappointed and getting hurt.”

Tao sighs, clearly starting to look disappointed. “So I guess I can rule out getting my first kiss as soon as the clock strikes 12 on New Year’s,” he frowns.

Baekhyun opens his mouth to pacify him before an idea forms in his head. He smiles so creepily that Jongdae actually quivers when Baekhyun looks at him.

“Oh, you never know,” Baekhyun says as he pats Tao on the shoulder.
