It felt like this move had been the longest time coming and yet had come around so suddenly too. Yeon remembered talking about moving out to New York for the longest time and at one point it was more a crossing thought than anything but yet here they were today. Tomorrow morning he would be leaving for the airport and leaving Evermore City behind. Dae had managed to convince him to keep the penthouse but all the things had been packed up into boxes and shipped out to his new place already, everything else was still here if he didn't need it or it was packed up in the 2 suitcases he had packed and ready to take. It felt so empty as he looked out over the spacious building, he never ever realized how big it felt before all his things were removed, now it felt a little lonely.
In true Yeon fashion he had insisted that they spend time together before he left which was exactly why he was getting ready to leave now, he was dressed more casually than usual, jeans and a shirt with the sleeves rolled up because it was warm today. They'd agreed to meet at the zoo. He and Hanseol had been hanging out a lot lately and of course, he still spent a lot of time with Dae but it had been a while since the 4 of them had spent time together, the last he remembered was their game night where Han had almost ended up flipping a table after a game of Uno.
Before long he headed down outside the building and got into the car, he gave the driver the address of zoo they were visiting today and then leaned back in the seat. It was on the outskirts of Evermore city where the land started to get more expansive so as he watched out the window he noted the way the houses slowly started to feel less crammed in, there were more gardens and space out here. Sometimes he wondered if he'd like to live in a place with more space and nature but he still seemed to find himself choosing places in the heart of the city. A part of him liked the hustle and bustle and being surrounded by people he didn't know.
When he reached the destination he paid the driver and hopped out of the car, it seemed he was the first one to arrive as he didn't see any of the others waiting in front of the statue so he headed over to it, slinging his bag over his shoulder before leaning against it and pulling out his phone. He had a bunch of work-related messages which he was tempted to answer but he knew how much of a rabbit hole that would be so he swiped on the notification to dismiss it and nodded. Work free day, it was the last day he would get to spend in person with his friends for a while and he wanted to enjoy it.

"I'll bet on Han just because I could" he chuckled, now that he thought about it, if he was asked to put his bet on someone, he would still pick Han. "Something about your boyfriend exudes inner aggressive energy" Han is a shy person but that doesn't hide the kind of energy he had pent up inside either. Given the situation, he was sure the celestial could act the way he thought he would. He noticed all the constant blushing coming from Jae and boy was the niveis enjoying every moment of it. It made him smug to know that he, of all people, could make the Jaesung Moon blush easily like that. "Oh so you do admit you have attractive friends" he scoffed sarcastically and rolled his eyes, "Jae, if only you knew how long I've been wanting to hear that from you."
Since he wasn't the one driving, Dae was able to stare at Jae the entire time, of course he tried his best not to make it too obvious, but he's generally very perceptive so it wasn't hard to sneak glances when Jae was probably sweating internally thinking about what he just said. He wondered how Yeon was doing with Han. "I'm a simple guy, Jae. Sex is just sex to me. I have no need to have those relationships the way you and Han do. I don't frown or belittle you for it because I could see what you have with him is real but it's not for everyone" Dae believes he would never get into something like that because that was the reality of it. While he was moving his leg to the side, he noticed the dhampir's lips bleeding and smirked, "Don't be so nervous about it, Jae. You shouldn't be treating your lips so poorly like that, that's my job" he cooed teasingly and threw his head back while laughing. "So you know Han would follow into what Yeon suggested quickly, your boyfriend is practically giving his consent away, the question is, are you?"
He still had his gaze fixated on the other male, wondering what he'll decide but he knew Jae wouldn't just discard the idea quickly either. Upon hearing his defensive tone, the pale-haired male chuckled and shook his head, "I look forward to seeing that" he winked playfully, clearly enjoying how much he's riled the dhampir up in just one car ride. "I'm pretty sure you do perform well though" he even averted his gaze downwards to Jae just to make his point. The whimper was the last straw for the niveis, he knew he wanted to have him today. The air in the room was thick with the tension between Yeon and Han but as soon as Jae stepped into it, Han was quick to come to his side and ask if anything happened, "Yes, Jae. Why do you look tense?" he bit his bottom lip and smirked before plopping himself on the couch, back to his usual manspreading. "Give me one too" he hollered when he noticed Yeon took out a few glasses.
Jae chuckled when Dae said he would bet on Han being the one to start a fight “He is pretty passionate when he gets his mind on something” he commented in a hushed voice so Dae might have a point there, he could be pretty aggressive when he was sure he was right about something too and he wasn’t the type to back down “Once Han is sure he’s right I think you’d need a bulldozer to take him down” he commented and clicked his tongue, okay he would give Dae that bet. Jae shuffled a little on the spot when Dae noted his admittance that he had friends who were attractive “I’m not blind, you know” he commented shaking his head slightly, besides in Korea it was perfectly normal to admit your friends were attractive without any repercussions.
“That’s foreign to me” Jae pointed out when Dae said that sex was sex to him and meant nothing more than that, perhaps Jae was just an emotional person but everything he did mattered and when it involved other people it mattered even more so, he made decisions conscious of what it would do to affect others “Doesn’t having someone to care for you appeal in the slightest?” he questioned slightly, he knew that Dae didn’t like the traditional reliances that came with relationships but everyone wanted to feel loved right? Jae got flustered when Dae pointed out what he was doing to his lips and then teased him in a flirtatious way “How can I not be nervous about it Dae” he scolded slightly and rolled his eyes “I’m yet to confirm my decision” he commented in a mumble because he really wasn’t sure how things were going to unfold.
Jae was blushing profusely as they headed into Yeon’s penthouse and he could tell that everyone noticed, still he tried to take some deep breaths and pretend like he hadn’t just been discussing the possibility of a foursome with Dae in the elevator. “Shut up” he chided to Dae when he called him out for being tense and he found a spot on the couch before sitting himself down, staying out of Dae’s way and pulling Han down to sit next to him. When Yeon asked if anyone wanted a drink he didn’t hesitate before saying “Me please” before he knew it, he had his hand curled around a glass and he was staring down at it and biting his lip, he had the feeling tonight was going to turn out interesting.
"Why Bella of all people, I can never understand" he shook his head, he remembered how he was actually fine with the way the story was going until he wasn't. It shifted overnight. Reality doesn't work like that and even if it was fiction, it was still bullshit to him. "Hey, those sweets can last me a lifetime, man" he swore the slightest mention of it alone could leave the celestial drooling on his doorsteps. "I mean there's a reason why it's a popular brand and why people eventually queue from morning just to get it. I don't want to be that person who moans when he saw that sold out or out of stock tag when he tries to order some online" he huffed and crossed his arms, he remembered that happened a few times and he eventually complained to Yeon one day, only to get a bag of it the next day. "Besides you work wonders, Yeon… you and your devastatingly big network of connections… if I don't take advantage of it, who will?" Even if it was just sweets.
He had the biggest puppy eyed look ever the moment he heard the valkyr was thinking of investing and opening a new branch nearby, "I swear if you do that, I will love you forever." It wasn't hard to please Han, honestly. That's why the blond got him hooked with a single bait. Planting the seed of curiosity in him was the best way to get Han to think about it and once that set in, it was not surprising to hear the fallen star wanted to give it a try. Like Yeon, Han too, has felt the sensations they receive when they spend a night with their partners. And it was truly a feeling. He couldn't help but chew his bottom lip and look down, no, Yeon wasn't the only one who thought about how good it would feel. He let out a whine when Yeon brought up his rough nights with Jae, "Yeon, I don't want to be that guy who reminds you how often you go at it with him but if you don't shut up about it, I will" his cheeks were red, he may as well be a human tomato.
Hanseol is a very expressive individual, it makes him a terrible liar because his body language would give it away before he could even think of a backup plan. And attempting to lie to his Volakiri of all people? Naught. "Oh you do spend more time sinning than sleeping, for sure…" he muttered under his breath and realized the elevator ride was a lot longer than he expected. One whole glass of plain water wasn't enough to quench his thirst and he was about to get another when the elevator suddenly opened and Jae entered with Dae. "I want to ask but I feel like I don't want to hear it anyway…" could Dae be doing what Yeon was doing to him? "Count me in… God I need a drink from our previous… conversation" he grumbled and went over to see if he could get the first glass. "Have I told you how dirty of a bastard you are?" But really, the idea is in and it's blooming to a full flower.
Yeon chuckled “A lifetime and yet no time at all at the same time” it was impressive how quickly Han could make them disappear but it definitely showed that he appreciated the effort the valkyr went to. “Yeah, thank god I know someone on the inside because I definitely don’t have time to be waiting in those long lines every time you have a craving” he chuckled under his breath, not that he would mind doing it once in a while but it had become somewhat of a ritual to bring some back for Han whenever he visited. “See you admit that my network is borderline dangerous and yet the only thing you use it for? Pastries” he chuckled “You really are a strange one Hanseol...I don’t think you’ve ever asked me for anything” nothing that would ever make the valkyr suspect he was being used anyway.
Yeon chuckled when Han suddenly changed his tone and body language at the prospect of having one of his favorite stores open in Evermore “Well I’ll see what I can do, it’d be a good investment if they were open to the idea of branching out” and he was sure they would see a good return on investment considering how popular the place was in New York. The valkyr shrugged slightly as though it was no big deal when Han pointed out that he and Dae were together a lot. It was strange, sharing such intimate details with someone who wasn’t directly involved in the act but he had accepted by now that his volakiri was privy to whatever information the valkyr himself had “The amount Jae bites you, I dare say you’ve formed a bit of an addiction Han” he pointed out and raised his brows as though to challenge the star to take him on.
He grinned when Han mumbled about Yeon’s bedroom habits but he said nothing else on the matter, he’d gotten his point across to Han and now it was time for the other male to make his decision about whether he wanted to proceed. He couldn’t help but wonder what went down between Jae and Dae but from the smirk gracing the niveis’ lips, things must have gone pretty well. He didn’t hesitate to pour out 4 shots of whiskey before passing the first glass to Han who was standing directly behind him “Probably, though I do love a reminder” he teased before heading over to Dae and giving him a smirk as he handed him his glass and then finally Jae “To a very good night with friends?” there was certainly a double meaning behind his words which he was sure everyone would notice as he raised his glass and then downed his shot.
That was why it was so easy to rile the celestial up, Dae knew exactly which button to push and the other male never ceased to amaze him at how easy it was to blow the lid off him. Sometimes he did feel guilty for teasing Han too much but it was all fun and games at the end of the day. "And that's what makes him attractive" he mused, oh he would lie if he said he did not find the fallen star the slightest attractive, he would be blind not to see how handsome the other male could be, which was something considering how ethereal his boyfriend is too. The niveis couldn't help but scoff at the dhampir when he said he wasn't blind, "Sure" if that's how he wanted to play it. "And it's not to me, I'm a simple guy, Jae" and he would not want to give that freedom up for anything else. He likes the way things are now.
No unnecessary attachments tying him down, he had enough already. Friends and family, that's as far he'd let attachments go. But relationships? Not a chance. "Maybe it's a pretty picture but not one I want to paint for myself. I've been on my own for as long as I could remember man, it doesn't affect me as much as you think it would," or maybe it does and he wouldn't tell Jae about it. But some things are better kept to himself. Such as this. Upon hearing that the dhampir has yet to confirm his decision, Dae smirked and bit his bottom lip instinctively, "You'll say yes, I'm sure." From the looks of it, Yeon may as well get Han into his plan, the celestial was flustered over something and that was the first thing he noticed when he stepped inside the penthouse.
Interestingly enough, Jae's body language screamed timidness, and it only made the niveis want to pounce. He saw the way Jae pulled Han down next to him and shook his head, chuckling to himself at how cute Jae was being. He spared Yeon a knowing look when he gave him a glass as he raised his own mockingly, "To a good night with friends indeed." But the smirk present on his lips was directed towards the dhampir sitting across him as it convey a hidden message.
Jae rolled his eyes playfully when Dae pointed out how easy it was to rile Han up, he had seen the two of them practically drive one another insane all day and it was honestly impressive how they managed to get under one another’s skin “Attractive huh?” he chuckled “Can’t say that’s exactly what I look for in someone but whatever works for you I suppose”. Jae gave Dae a look when he said he was a simple guy and things didn’t work for him like that “Must be kinda freeing to do whatever you want with whoever and never feel ties down by it” though honestly Jae loved being tied down by Han, he loved the attachment and intimacy the two of them shared.
“Well at least you admit that it’s a pretty picture” he mumbled softly, that meant that Dae saw love in the world around him and perhaps even envied it at times, even if he decided it wasn’t best for himself, it proved to the dhampir that he had a certain softness in him. Jae wondered what it must feel like for Dae, being with Yeon, they were practically always together and if people didn’t know better they would call them best friends. It was clear to the younger male that the valkyr had gotten under Dae’s skin whether he wanted to admit it or not. “Guess you’ll find out” he commented as he nibbled on his bottom lip. He wasn’t sure there wasn’t any way his resolve could go but downhill from here honestly.
Jae enjoyed being close to Han and naturally cuddled himself against him as though the star could shield him from whatever was coming next. He could still feel Dae’s eyes on him but he also noticed the way that Yeon was watching them both as though they were his next meal. Jae shifted on the spot slightly, mumbling a thanks when Yeon handed him a glass. He listened to the toast but didn’t say any words about it, but he did raise the whiskey to his lips and down it before pulling a face because it was strong expensive stuff that could get really dangerous quickly “To...friends” he murmured softly as he set down the glass.
Han was always grateful to Yeon, in more than one way that's for sure. And he never forgot to thank Yeon for every endeavor he fulfilled, the valkyr is just spoiling him at some point honestly. "Connections, what a pretty thing indeed. The world operates on that a lot…" it was nice when you have that on you, bad news for the people on the other side though. Bur Han does enjoy the perks Yeon received sometimes. More than he'd admit. "What's so bad about using your connections for pastries? Would you rather I use them for world domination instead" he scoffed and shook his head at the thought of it, Han is a simple minded person, he only wants to live a happy and honest life. Aside from that, he would rather not know what goes on in the world. "Actually pastries world domination please… imagine all the branches everywhere… people could enjoy the sweets too." That was Hanseol Park, for sure.
"I asked you for pastries," he pointed out when Yeon said he didn't ask him for anything. "I can go by just fine, Yeon, but if you offer me good food then how can I resist right?" Or else he would have felt more guilty than he is now. He couldn't hide the blush dusting his cheeks when he called him out like that, "Shut up…" he huffed, admittedly the celestial couldn't deny he's slowly becoming a fan of Jae's biting. It brought him into a whole new world of pleasure and the fallen star couldn't say no to that sensation. "Is that really bad to be addicted to your own boyfriend" he mumbled under his breath and fiddled with his thumbs as an attempt to look away from the valkyr's intense stare. Yeon is always giving intense atares so it shouldn't be surprising but Han could feel himself growing smaller under his gaze. "It's nice when he bites me okay."
When Jae snuggled against him as soon as he took a seat next to him on the couch, Han returned the affection by stroking his hair gently and accepted the glass from Yeon, it was whiskey and dare he say it wasn't the first time he's drank anything at Yeon's place so he was the first one to finish the glass. But not before he noticed the looks both Dae and Yeon were giving them and made a toast of his own, "A good night… that's something" he chuckled to himself and shook his head before requesting another. The entire time, he was slowly reassuring Jae on his side by brushing his hands against him. Maybe it’s fine to give it a try.
-----------------------------------------
He didn’t sleep much, never did really but after Han and Jae crashed on his bed he had stayed up with Dae just talking. It was kinda a ritual for them but this one felt different because they knew deep down this was going to be the last one in a while. His heart clenched in his chest just a little when he lifted his gaze to see Dae asleep peacefully on the couch opposite him. It wasn’t exactly the most comfortable spot to sleep but he had learned fast that Dae could sleep almost anywhere.
He stretched and got to his feet before sneaking off into the room where he had left his packed suitcase and dragged it out into the living area. He started sweeping the apartment for anything he had forgotten, or wanted with him and tucking them into the pockets of his carry-on. He was used to traveling by now but he still managed to forget something every time and need to buy another one when he reached his destination. It didn’t seem like such a big deal this time though, considering he was staying.
Hearing stirring from the bedroom Yeon went to the doorway of the bedroom and knocked slightly before popping his head in and grinning slightly “I’m leaving for the airport in about half an hour if either of you want to join” he offered before leaving them be to wake up and decide. He didn’t really mind if Han wanted to avoid the whole airport goodbye thing, honestly the valkyr was feeling more emotional right now than he wanted to admit.
They had one hell of a night. However, that was not the last thing Dae thought of when he slowly drifted to sleep last night. The last thing the niveis recalled was staying up all night chatting with the blond who would later depart and leave the three of them as he embarked on another chapter of his story. Dae didn't feel the weight of his eyelids burdening him until it was at least 5 in the morning. That was when he decided that he could no longer deny the need to nap for a bit before sending Yeon to the airport and seeing him off. When he stirred slightly in his sleep, the niveis didn't realize he had moved to the side and rolled off the couch, causing the blond to fall down and hit the floor. A small yelp of pain escaped him as he fluttered his eyes open and rubbed his temples groggily, "Fuck… that was cold" he grumbled, he had lifted himself up and stretched out his limbs.
Sleeping on the couch was not the most comfortable option but he could basically sleep anywhere at any time regardless. He wasn't picky. Sleeping on a couch was already considered a luxury for a bounty hunter who sometimes even slept on trees. The first thing he noticed was that Yeon was nowhere to be found in the living room, he was so sure the valkyr was there with him when he fell asleep. However, he did notice the luggage packed neatly not far away from where he was. He noticed a familiar mop of flaxen locks by the hallway that led to the master bedroom and noticed Yeon standing in front of his own room, where Han and Jae fell asleep after last night's activities. It must've worn them out.
Dae leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, standing just a distance away from Yeon who was already dressed, "You're already up…" he exclaimed gruffly, his voice was evident from the waking up but his eyes were softer than he would ever admit. He would obviously miss Yeon, he is his companion, after all. "When's your boarding time again? I'll get ready" and no, he didn't want to just say goodbye without seeing him off, even though there was this weird feeling stirring in him, Dae wanted to be there for Yeon. It was the least he could do and while Han would probably end up tearing up, he also wished the celestial would go with them today. "Do you want me to wake them up? I promise I'll be gentle" there was an attempt at humor in his tone but Dae didn't sound happy at all. How could he? He's sad and he's not going to hide it.
Despite the fact they stayed up pretty late, Jae slept really well, the one thing to note was that Yeon’s bed was really comfortable. He supposed that’s what spending a lot of money on it would do, it made him kinda sad to know this place was going to just be left empty until the valkyr came back to visit but he understood. This was Yeon’s first home in Evermore and it would be hard to give it up, even if he didn’t intend on coming back for a while.
The dhampir stirred away when he heard the sound of footsteps padding up and down the hallway and he was just about awake, eyes fluttering open to see Han peacefully sleeping beside him when he heard Yeon’s voice at the door. He looked up for a moment, groggily wiping his eyes before nodding when he said he was leaving for the airport soon. Everything had gone so fast and while yesterday had been a great day, he knew this day was going to be much harder for Han.
He nudged the star a few more times to rouse him before pressing a soft kiss to his cheek “C’mon, we have to be ready in time if you’re going to see Yeon off” with that Jae rolled to the side, wincing a little because he was sore and collected his clothes which had been left in a pile on the floor and got dressed. He headed into the bathroom and attempted to make his hair look semi decent using Yeon’s comb before coming back to check on Han.
If he could continue his sleep, he would. Yeon's bed was so comfortable the cooling sensation it gave his body caused the fallen star to sleep like a baby, with half body sprawled across the mattress, he was basically wrapped around the blankets and the warm body of his boyfriend. Han was generally not a morning person which he had to change ever since he had to go into work earlier than usual so it wasn't surprising to see him still in slumber when everyone else had begun to wake up. Even when Yeon had knocked against the door and attempted to wake them up, Han didn't make any movements to indicate he was anywhere near waking up yet. But it was as if everyone also knew he wouldn't dare miss out on sending his volakiri off to the airport, he would never let anyone live it down if so.
He didn't even register what Yeon had said until Jae nudged him slightly, attempting to wake the star up from his deep sleep from yesterday's events. The feeling of his soft lips pressed against his cheek made Han groan softly in his sleep as he stirred slightly, stretching out his hands as soon as he was able to comprehend what was going on. Truthfully, he blanked out for a few seconds before finally understanding what Jae meant by that, "Oh shit, I didn't oversleep right" he rushed to get up and actually tripped as he lost his footing, causing the celestial to roll down the bed with a whine, "Ouch…" as if it wasn't enough to know that his body is sore from yesterday, he had to trip the first thing in the morning. "Give me a few minutes…" he mumbled and rushed over to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth using the extra toothbrush on the side, he tried to make himself look decent and thankfully he didn't look too puffy in the morning.
He was halfway dressed and tried to clean the bed and make it look somewhat presentable because Han was meticulous about those, before making his way out with him putting on his shirt as he walked through the hallway to meet the other two. His shirt was still unbuttoned, leaving him to flash his upper half as he groaned under his breath while trying to button them, "I feel like my body got wrecked…" He saw the look on Yeon's face and if there was one person the blond couldn't lie to, it was him. He's his volakiri, after all. So he tried his best not to look sad and tried to lighten the mood, "You look dashing per usual." He kept close to Jae, shoulders brushing against the dhampir as if he was seeking emotional support too.
The valkyr could almost sense the way Dae was wishing time would stop for a little longer, Yeon could understand, he thought for a while they had all the time in the world but now they were finally on the day he would leave “Can’t be late” he responded with a soft smile on his lips. Of course it was a given that Dae was going to join him at the airport, it had never really been a question in his mind that he’d want to be there. Which said a lot he supposed. “Half 10, but you know how things are, 3 hours of sitting around is mandatory even for first-class” he rolled his eyes playfully.
Yeon continued to wander back and forth after he left the bedroom, sweeping each room one at a time and making sure he had everything he needed. It was hard for him to know for sure, he found he always seemed to have a curse where he forgot one thing or another, perhaps he should just expect it. “No need, I think they’ll be up soon enough” he chuckled, Jae seemed awake enough and he was sure he would ensure the star would be out of bed soon.
He tucked a few more bits into the suitcase before patting it a few times “I think that’s going to have to be everything or the paranoia is going to kill me” he teased with a chuckle as he headed over to the kitchen and turned on the coffee pot. When it finished boiling he poured himself one before grabbing a couple of handfuls of ice from the freezer and making Dae an iced Americano. When Han looked at him, Yeon suddenly felt a pang of sadness move through him and pressed his lips together knowing exactly what that was, he offered a smile of reassurance to him. “Well at least the time difference to New York isn’t far” he commented in a positive manner “Which means I expect you to take breaks from your work to call me” he scolded Han with a grin.
