Will You be My Boyfriend

Jun Yang scratched his chin as a contemplative frown appeared on his face. He paced back and forth in his room before eventually plopping down on his bed. With a frustrated groan, the young man opened his arms and leaned back, his body landing softly on his bed.

Jun Yang looked up at the ceiling. He had been staring at it for an answer since the night before and he hoped that after a good night sleep, the correct answer would magically appear on it but naturally that did not happen.

The young man rolled to the side and his eyes landed on the clock that was by his bed. It was 15 minutes to 10 am.

Feng Qi said the 'movie date' was in the afternoon but 'afternoon' was such a broad term.

Jun Yang considered calling Feng Qi on his phone to ask for a clarification but wouldn't that imply that he was going to this 'date'? Jun Yang was sure Feng Qi would use that tease him somehow so even though he had not decided whether to head to the mall or not, he was not going to call Feng Qi to give him the satisfaction.

The image of Feng Qi's lips curving up with amusement appeared in Jun Yang's mind and… Jun Yang grabbed the nearest pillow and curled up into a fetal position, the pillow smothering the squeal that escaped from the young man's lips.

After lying in bed for a while, Jun Yang got up and walked to his closet to throw the door open. Jun Yang strode into the spacious walk-in closet. It was filled with many branded clothes and accessories.

The shirts were hanged neatly according to their colors, trousers and pants were tucked away in drawers and cupboards.

Sets of clothes were thrown out from the closet and landed on Jun Yang's bed. He then walked out and picked up the set of clothes one by one and placed them before him as he modeled them in front of the mirror.

'Shorts are probably too casual and jackets are too much since it's still summer.' Jun Yang thought as he searched for the suitable attire to wear. As Jun Yang turned to drop the wool jacket on his bed, he had an out-of-body moment and he realized how ridiculous he was acting. 'Why am I treating this so seriously? It's just an outing with a classmate.'

Even though that was his thought, Jun Yang still spent another one hour walking in and out of his closet to pick out the best outfit he thought was appropriate for this 'date'. In the end, he picked a button-down and slacks to go for a studious and smart look.

…

His driver drove away and Jun Yang fidgeted with nervous energy as he headed for the mall. He glanced at his watch, it was slightly past noon. 'Am I being too early? After all, Feng Qi did say the date is supposed to be in the afternoon.'

Jun Yang started to have doubts but that doubt disappeared without a trace when he turned the corner and the entrance of the mall appeared before his eyes. Standing at the top of steps that led into the shopping mall was Feng Qi.

Feng Qi's hair that was tussled by the wind fell just above his eyes. He had on a jeans jacket over a white tank top. A pair of casual jeans completed the look. Feng Qi's muscular frame carried the clothes nicely and Jun Yang thought he looked dashing and handsome.

He had not seen Feng Qi in such a get up before and he wondered if the young man had labored over his choice of clothes like he did or Feng Qi had a natural eye for street fashion.

As Jun Yang walked up the steps, Feng Qi waved casually at him like he had expected that Jun Yang would show up. Jun Yang though was confused by the man's confidence, Jun Yang himself was not sure that he was going to come to this 'date' so how could Feng Qi be sure that he was going to be here.

Therefore, the first out of his mouth was, "Feng Qi, how can you be sure that I'll come?"

Feng Qi answered readily, "Because you're my boyfriend."

The young man's open shamelessness stumped Jun Yang. However, there was another question that was on Jun Yang's mind. "Then how can you tell what time I will come? Even if I did agree to come, I might come much later in the day. After all, late afternoon is still afternoon."

"I've been waiting here since the mall opened its door. I'm certain that eventually you'll show up and see. I was correct." The statement was uttered with such nonchalance that it suggested Feng Qi would have stayed and waited for Jun Yang to show up if needs be.

Jun Yang was touched.
