BONUS CHALLENGE

So my bonus challenge is as follows:

Depict them having a human moment. By that I mean get nitty gritty. Like those mundane things that happen in everyday life. Like getting cut off while driving, having to wait in line, or even a bird excretes on them. Other than that  do whatever you want. You have all the freedom to do as you wish

Morning
Kangin/Leeteuk

“Kangin-ah, we're here,”

Kangin opened his eyes briefly, squinting at his surroundings. He was sitting in the passenger seat in Leeteuk's little grey car, with said man's face hovering just inches above his own, grinning. Leeteuk handed him a thermos cup filled to the brim with hot coffee, smiling softly at him.

“You awake?” Leeteuk's voice was soft, quite silent, because nobody needed to hear him save for Kangin. Kangin nodded dully, trying to smile but his facial muscles hadn't woken up yet. Leeteuk, however, understood and pressed a soft kiss against Kangin's lips in reply. Kangin hid his smile in the lid of the cup, chugging down some coffee.

“Let's go,” Kangin said, voice rough from sleep, as he unbuckled the seat belt, opened the door, all but crawling out of the tiny car.

Since it hadn't been more than five thirty in the morning when Leeteuk had roused Kangin from sleep in the dorms, Kangin assumed that it was now around six am. The sun hadn't quite risen yet and the air was sharp, cold with the fall that was luring just behind the horizon. Kangin shivered slightly, pulling his grey zip-up hoodie closer, thanking Leeteuk mentally for finding clothes to him. If he had chosen them himself, he'd end up with a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. A cold hand slipped into his own warmer, not by much, hand. Kangin looked up from his grey sweatpants and straight into Leeteuk's honey eyes, wrinkling at the corner. The tip of Leeteuk's nose had already turned slightly pink from the weather. Kangin leaned in and brushed his dry lips against Leeteuk's nose, before he let himself get dragged into the supermarket. Their destination.

Kangin wasn't that fond of grocery shopping, but when it was like this, it was okay. Normally, their dorm aunt would go for them since it was such stress for them to go by themselves; the chances of getting recognized was high, so the managers wouldn't let them go. Kangin and Leeteuk had however discovered this supermarket a summer when Kangin had a week off from the army. They had spent that week traveling by subway and trains to the outskirts of Seoul, looking for anything and everything in a city they were bored of. A day where they had ran through heavy rain, laughing at each other, Leeteuk's white shirt clinging to his hips, they had found this supermarket. It was far from abandoned, but the people in it hadn't recognized them. That or they had pretended not to, just for the sake of privacy. Kangin had forgotten the store rather quickly, but Leeteuk apparently, hadn't.

“Tired?” a soft voice by his ear make him observant on his surroundings once more. The shopping cart he was pushing mindlessly around was filled with more food than it had been, without Kangin remembering putting anything in it. There was a yellow post-it stuck to the handle, everything from toilet paper and condoms (latex free ones for Kyuhyun!) to eggs and insect spray scribbled down on it in Leeteuk's pretty handwriting.

“Mm, slightly,” Kangin admitted, sipping his coffee. Leeteuk's face fell for half a second, impossible to see for strangers, but very noticeable for Kangin.

“I'm sorry,” Leeteuk almost whispered, putting three cartons of milk in the cart. “I just-you've just come home and I want-want to be with you,”

“Hey,” Kangin grabbed Leeteuk's wrist, placing his thermos cup on a shelf filled with rice, pulling him against his body. Their eyes meet and Kangin smiled, kissing Leeteuk's forehead. “I don't mind. I'd go anywhere with you,”

Leeteuk's face split into a grin, and he tip-toes to place a kiss on Kangin's mouth, soft and warm, like Leeteuk himself.
