(( I'm so happy ;w; That's all I can say ;^; Care to share idea or should I wait and it can be an RP Christmas present? ;D ))
Kaoru had nearly forgotten about cooking; he'd been practicing but he almost feared he'd just mess things up, but his mind went blank when Dae started talking. He almost didn't hear anything he was saying.
"And what's wrong with cheesy? Everything Quentin Tarantino makes is cheesy. And... Speaking of.. Kill Bill?" Because snow equals Christmas, right?
"Oh, Uhm... It's freezing out here, let's go in."
Kaoru, fidgeting a bit, opened the door behind him and let himself in, leaving the door open for Dae.
From cold to warm, his glasses fogged up once more. He made a face and took the edge of scarf to wipe them, not bothering to take them off.
Will it always be such a hassle? Maybe all that time sitting so close to his computer screen was the culprit. He was still torn between disliking having to look through frames and liking the fact he could see things and people more vividly. People being just Dae-hyun. He didn't actually care about anyone else.
Stuck n trying to think of a movie, he muttered, "I don't know if I know anything 'easy to watch' per say... Ballet, horror, and murder mystery is really all I know." He fumbled with the end of his scarf.
"Uhm, Twelve Monkeys? It's... Its weird. Have you heard of it?"
Unable to actually call to his memory any good films, he decided to move onto something else. "I can make us hot chocolate if you'd like. Regular, hazelnut, or peppermint. I think I have marshmallows, oh and candy canes!" he said with a bit of excitement and a happy little grin.

 +Where's the door again...?+ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~((Hnn, me too, these two are so cute! X3 Christmas surprise! XD That is, for you; it should be a while after for the boys. Aren't time skips convenient?))Chuckling, Dae hyun said, "Well yeah, that's true, but Tarantino's films have more than just cheese. There's usually so much action, and the characters are awesome, and sometimes some really good comedy...there's a lot there. I just meant that I've already seen It's a Wonderful Life 23 times and would rather watch something else."
Heading inside, Dae hyun glanced around the house and found himself impressed. Everything looked perfect, which made him think Kaoru had been doing nothing all morning but straightening up the house, despite the fact that he would be the only visitor.
"Wow, your decorations look amazing," he offered, not wanting all the effort to go to waste.
"Oh hey, that's the one with Bruce Willis, right? I've totally been wanting to see that one! Doesn't he always play such a great action hero? I loved him in Die Hard...but I think everyone did."
Glad to see Kaoru in good spirits, Dae hyun gladly replied, "Wow, that sounds wonderful! I love hot chocolate. Hazelnut for me, please. And marshmallows sound great." Sitting down on the couch, Dae looked around once more, but found little to comment on. The decorations were all too perfect, perhaps.
"So hey, for dinner, I've got everything to make cauliflower casserole, green beans and almonds, and some marinated chicken breast. Does that sound good to you?" he called from the couch, trying to see into the kitchen from where he sat.
Feeling lazy, he forced himself to get up and walked into the kitchen for the company. "Hope you don't mind. It feels weird to talk from two different rooms."
Leaning against the counter with his hands in his pockets as he watched Kaoru work, Dae commented, "Well, the house looks great, you know? They really did a good job on the additions." Even as he said it, Dae's mind flashed back to the way the house had been twice in the past; the bed posts, the locked door, and the window, thankfully large enough; and the table, flipped in distress, the couch, with Kaoru trying to bury his face into the darkness.
Shaking the thoughts away, he glanced over at his host, glad that Kaoru was focused on making their drinks just perfectly. They had come along way; he could only be thankful it had turned out like this, that they were both strong enough.
Scratching momentarily at the spot where his heart would be, Dae hyun tried to keep the conversation rolling. "I know you probably don't really drink, but would you want to go out with me and the rest of the band one of these days? You wouldn't have to drink if you didn't want to, or I could recommend something...they're actually pretty interested in meeting you." Chuckling as he remembered their precise words, he relayed, "They want to know who's been stealing all my spare thoughts."~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~+...And who are you supposed to be?+

(( Gais. Gais stahp. U Gais are too cute. My heart's going to explode. ))
Hearing Dae's compliment made him blush. "Oh, thank you. I started and I guess I like decorating as much as botany... I need something to do when my plants aren't growing." Kaoru, lightening up, made his way into the kitchen, Kao poured water and put a filter into a coffee pot, then took packets of cocoa from a drawer, with a few candy canes.
"It's a Wonderful Life... It's nice, but I know what you mean. But I guess it's better than watching The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Ever see it? I know I'm kind of emotional already but that movie." Kaoru shook his head. "Anyway. I think I have Twelve Monkeys somewhere, it's good."
He didn't notice Dae had followed him right into the kitchen after telling him what he thought about dinner and jumped when he heard his voice so close. "O-oh, no its fine," he mumbled reaching into a cabinet for a pair of mugs, decorated with a few butterflies each.
"That sounds great. The food, I mean. I have some of the herbs you gave me growing so we can use them fresh. " He was smiling now, happy Dae was here, he could use the gift he was given, a couple cups of cocoa and movies...
"They really do a good job remodeling. I think I drove them crazy though," he said with light laugh. "They had a hard time finding things. This tile," he tapped the trim of tile around the counters, "was something I really liked but out of stock." Sighing, he took the hot water from the pot and filled only a small portion of the mugs. Milk and chocolate powder... He took hazelnuts from the same drawer and shaved them into Dae's cup. A bit of heated cream, and marshmallows... It was cooled but still steaming. He stuck a candy cane into his own, the curve hanging from the lip.
"Here," he said, sliding the cup to Dae-hyun. "I hope it's good."
Taking a sip of his, he peeked to Dae when he started talking.
So... His friend know about him? Had he–
Wait a minute.
"...who's been stealing all my spare thoughts.
...all my spare thoughts."
He's been thinking about him...? How often does that mean? His band members took notice, so is it a lot?
Kaoru noticed he's been silent for quite a while.
"O-oh, Uhm... Yeah. Yes. I'd love to. I don't drink often. Usually just special occasions. Actually I bought some brandy, I was going to ask if you wanted some later maybe with dinner..." Getting off topic. his mid told him.
"But, I'd like to. I've... I've been meaning to go to a concert but they sometimes conflict with my schedule. It's been changed, it's flexible. Which means every week I have different work days... B-but not on holidays." Tapping his fingers on the mug, he realized he was starting to ramble. Taking a breath, he nodded.
"So... I've been... stealing your thoughts?"

+Where's the door again...?+ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~((Indeed, indeed. X3 ))"Can't say I've heard of that one. Is it really good or really bad?" he asked, preoccupying himself by looking around the kitchen and trying to remember the layout; it was nice, but really quite normal, not that his house was different from most other bachelor pads.
"Glad to hear you're getting some use out of them, Dae hyun remarked, relieved that Kaoru really had liked his present.
Sipping at the hot chocolate, Dae hyun said, "Wow, this is really good. I may be able to cook, but I couldn't make something like this."
"Well, we haven't really had anything big lately," Dae hyun said, shrugging, "So it's not like you've been missing anything major. I'll get you a schedule of all our shows, though, so you can tell me when you're free." Noticing Kaoru's nervousness, Dae hyun wondered if it was the thought of the crowds and noise throwing Kaoru off.
Glancing up at the sound of Kaoru's slightly hopeful and suggestive tone, Dae hyun tried to back down as gently as possible from making any statements. "Yeah, they've been getting jealous that I'm spending time with you. I mean, I'm usually with them during Christmas, but I have to admit, it's going to be nice just having a quiet night at home watching some movies and making dinner. Much as I love to party, I also need a break sometimes, you know? I think everyone does."
Hoping he'd guided the conversation off-course enough, Dae hyun took another sip of his hot chocolate before asking, "Do you want to watch your movie here or at my place? We could watch it here, head over to my place, have dinner, then watch a movie at my place. Does that sound good?"
Thought he wouldn't show it, Dae hyun secretly wished Kaoru would allow him the comfort of not having to return to his previous comment. Far as they'd come, things were still shaky between them, and although he'd certainly warmed to his neighbor, the road bumps they'd once hit weren't helping him sort out his feelings.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~+...And who are you supposed to be?+

(( OoC; Speaking of time-skipping, I personally don't have anything planned, would you like to take over for a post? I don't want to just skip over something if you have a nice plan~))
"It's good, very good... Just depressing," muttered Kaoru, hiding behind his cup of cocoa. With the compliment that came after, he was glad for it too because he blushed again and thanked him.
Kaoru nearly regretted having the statement come out of his mouth. But it was too late to turn back; besides he got a rather normal explanation. As mildly disappointed as he was, he tried to brush off the initial thought. "Hm." He really wasn't sure what to say, but was certainly glad Dae decided to change the subject.
"Oh, uhm... It'd probably be easier to head to your place. More convenient. Let me just grab the movie and some sage and parsley herbs." With that, he downed the rest of his cup and took the last bit of candy cane. Finding a small pair of scissors, he moved to the sink's window, cutting a few leaves from the plants and wrapping them up neatly. Pocketing them, he moved to his room, which was conveniently close, and scoured his drawers for movies, finding the one needed.
"All right. Let's go!" He said with a smile and ring, and tucked the movie under his arm, waiting for Dae as he opened the door. Annoyed, he wiped his glasses. Stupid steam.

+Where's the door again...?+ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~((Okay, magical time skip away! Let's just say that Christmas-dinner-and-a-movie went great and it's been a little while. XD Maybe...early March? This'll be a little short since I'm getting back into the swing of things, but I'm sure we'll build up steam again. :3 btw, did you know there's an actual K-pop artist named Daehyun? I was like, wuuuuut?! XD))Stepping outside the clothing store for his break, Dae hyun leaned against the brick back wall and pulled out his phone.
"Hey, we're gonna be having a concert this weekend. Wanna come? Saturday night, local club, gig starts at 8, we go on at 9, probably we'll be off-stage by10? Then we can all just chill and watch the rest of the acts, it's a rotation of local talents. I've got a friend who could hang with you while we're on stage if you'd be more comfortable while I'm busy that way. Up for it?"
Rereading the text three times before finally sending it, Dae hyun kept his fingers crossed, mentally. It had been a while since he'd extended the offer to bring Kaoru to one of their concerts, and it had become a running joke amongst the band that Kaoru must his imaginary girlfriend since he had never managed to make a show yet. Finally, though, the venue had been small enough and the timing perfect; Dae hyun felt confident it would be an outing Kaoru could handle.
Hearing a box tumble and crash in the back room, Dae hyun ducked in to help, slipping back out as soon as things were back under control. Pulling his phone back out impatiently, he tapped his foot as he anticipated a response, hoping Kaoru had his phone nearby.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~+...And who are you supposed to be?+

(( OoC; You mean you didn't know????? omg I thought you named him that on purpose! ))
Kaoru had been trimming dead parts off his herbs when his phone vibrated on the kitchen counter. He jumped for a second before realizing it wasn't a threat and answered. He bit his lip nervously. A text from Daehyun, asking about going to a concert again. He somewhat ignored all previous inquiries, hoping they'd just not be brought up again. Integrating himself better into public, he thought he'd better go this time.,he'd get to finally hear Dae's music live, like he'd been wanting to, even if he never went.
Kaoru sighed. He slowly texted, erased his text, then tried again. His confidenfce wavered when he stared at the 'send' button and he retyped again. He did this several times, changing from lengthy messages that went on and on to just 'sure'. It sounded too cold. He finally settled on "I'd love to!" and stared at his screen for another minute before pressing send. Another friend, though... He hoped he could act vaguely human and not embarrass himself for the umpteenth time.
Kaoru adjusted his glasses and headed to his computer, looking up the venue's address, just to be sure.
