i have a surprise for you.
chenle received that exact message from jisung two hours ago. only that one message, without any explanation whatsoever for the whole two hours. its sitting there on his notification bar, drowned by his other notifications– which mainly are texts from his family and his groups.
he’s currently resting on a sofa, after saying goodbyes to his staff before finally closing up his bakery. holiday seasons are literally crazy. a lot of people order cake and other delicacies since halloween started up till christmas later, to celebrate the year ending. not to mention lately there’s also this trend on tiktok where people celebrate their accomplishments this year, which suddenly makes his store get a sudden surge of cake orders. don’t get him wrong, he loves holiday seasons. the sales are crazy and he’s making bank. but still, chenle is just a normal human who needs time off.
in short, he’s exhausted and in desperate need of rest. or you know, spend a whole day just cuddling his boyfriend and doing nothing. or something.
he misses his boyfriend so much. he doesn't even remember when the last time they had a proper date. probably in september? which is like 3 months ago. they barely celebrate chenle’s birthday properly because he’s too busy preparing for the holiday season at his store. they only had take outs and a cake that jisung secretly ordered from chenle’s store, and spent the rest of the day chilling in their apartment watching movies. which is nice, but not really what he had in mind– and that really sucks
if he’s being honest, he also feels frustrated. it’s been awhile since he and jisung actually Do The Deed. he needs to properly get laid, all those quickies they did can only satisfy him so much. it is good, but he needs to be ruined. it will definitely help him to go through the remaining busy days before it stops right before new years.
so by jisung mentioning a surprise, actually does make chenle a little bit excited. even though, sure, it could be an innocent kind of surprise. but hey, the dude is in desperate need to get laid, give him some slacks.
hey baby sorry i just saw this. can i ask what the surprise is?
chenle sent a reply to jisung after getting lost in his own thoughts for awhile. he then continued to scroll his other notifs and replied to some of the important ones, before finally getting ready to go back home.
jisung’s reply came not long after that, just right before he locked his store up.
nope. just get back home soon. i miss you.
chenle stops right in front of his bakery door, his hand froze mid-air before sticking the key in. he can't help but feel guilty to jisung. he knows he’s barely present in their relationship lately. he tried but somehow his work always gets in the way. he knows jisung definitely understands his situation, after all they’ve been together for almost 3 years now. but still, he feels bad that this keeps happening every holiday season.
normal couples usually plan a holiday or do a lot of romantic stuff together when the weather starts to get cold. sadly, with chenle’s line of work, they can't really do that. holiday season means he’s gonna get super swamped. everyone suddenly wants different kinds of delicacies to buy for each specific holiday, and he needs to cater to all of that.
though, owning a bakery means he can get unlimited amounts of desserts any time he wants. so every time he made a mistake or simply felt guilty, he could just take some extras and bring it home to give to jisung, and thankfully, jisung is a sucker for desserts. which is exactly what he does next. he goes back in to his store, take out a paper bag and throw in a few cookies and some pastries he knew jisung really like, before finally locking up the shop and start his journey back home.
he can’t help but wonder what actually is the surprise. jisung is not really the type to give him surprises. but then again, chenle is barely home these days, so it make sense if jisung prepared something as a surprise for him. he spends most days cooped up at the store, whether churning out new recipes with other head bakers, planning out campaigns for each holiday, or simply just helping out in the kitchen. he barely gets any breaks once halloween season starts rolling in. he started his day at 7am and only goes home when it’s at least 9pm, which resulting in him barely saw his boyfriend.
he truly loves doing what he does, it's just that sometimes, it makes him miss his boyfriend so much. his smells, his touch, his kisses, everything.

“jisungiee im homeee.”
chenle calls out right after he opens their apartment unit. he sighs as he takes off his shoes and coats, struggling a little bit with the things he has on his hands.
“oh hey baby, have you eaten yet? i’m in the kitchen.”
jisung’s voice can be heard all the way to the front door. chenle hangs his coat and drops his keys before walking to the kitchen. “only a sandwich. did you-” he stops dead in his tracks and lets go of his bag to the floor after seeing his boyfriend.
noticing the sound followed by a sudden silence, jisung turns around to face chenle.
“hi.” he greets chenle happily.
this motherfucker grins. chenle felt sick.
“hi.” trying to act normal, he walks slowly and puts the desserts he brought home on top of the kitchen counter before he sits on one of the chairs. jisung slides a glass of water in front of him before opening the fridge.
“i bought some food from that chinese place you really like and about to reheat it. do you want some?”
chenle stare at his boyfriend silently, still taking in the sight in front of him. is this really what jisung meant by surprise?
“yeah, sure. i also brought some cookies and pastries you like.” he said slowly, still staring at the man in front of him. he still can’t believe his eyes, what he’s seeing.
“oh, great! we can eat those as desserts!”
jisung moves busily in the kitchen, taking out containers from the fridge and arranging them before putting them into the microwave one by one. “you know, i’m actually craving that beef dish you usually make. but since i know you’re barely eating yourself, i just bought it from that place you like. you also said that their food somehow reminds you of your mom’s cooking right?”
“the auntie said he misses you, by the way. she wonders how you are doing and if you're eating well. i told her that you've been super busy and barely eating, then she gave me an extra portion and also some frozen mantou. how great is that?” jisung kept talking without knowing chenle’s state behind him.
“oh and i think she also said that she wanted to order something for chinese new year?” he started plating their food, giving extra to chenle’s plate because he knew that boy barely had any food in his system.
“why would she talk about ordering something for chinese new year already anyway? christmas hasn't even come yet! i mean, sure, of course, you're gonna close up your shop that week, since you're planning to go visit your parents in china, and she probably needs it before that week. but can’t she tell you at least after christmas? you’re already busy as is, she can at least help ease your mind a little by telling you after the christmas rush ends, you know?”
no. chenle doesn't know. he also doesn't know how jisung is able to keep talking without ever pointing out the elephant in the room.
“anyway, she said she’s gonna text you herself. i don’t know if she texts you already, but if she hasn't, then maybe you can postpone it until after christmas?” jisung finally turns around after he's done plating and faces chenle, only to see him quietly staring intensely at himself.
“le?”
chenle blinks once, twice. he slowly nods and drinks the water jisung gave him before. he suddenly felt so thirsty. “yeah, she texted me earlier.”
jisung tilts his head, placing the plates in front of chenle. “are you okay?”
he blinks again once, twice, before finally snapping out of his trance. “yeah, of course. why wouldn't i be?” he took the plates that jisung prepared and was about to walk to their living room, where they've been having their dinner lately.
just before chenle walked away, jisung suddenly held his hand across the counter. “baby, what’s wrong? you’ve been silent this whole time. is something bothering you?” concern and worry can definitely be seen from jisung’s eyes.
chenle feels like a fool. jisung is in front of him, worrying, meanwhile here he is getting thirsty and hungry over him.
he shakes his head, finger pointing at jisung’s hair, “is this... the surprise you're talking about?”
jisung huffs and touches a few strands of his hair like he’s not sure with how he looks. “it is, yeah. sorry if it's lame. i was hanging out at donghyuck and jaemin hyung’s place earlier and out of nowhere they kept saying that i’ll look good with lighter hair color. somehow they manage to persuade me to change it. we spend hours bleaching it to achieve this color actually. i almost fell asleep on their couch.”
huh, i might need to make that cheesecake both of them like as a thank you gift, chenle thinks.
you see, in front of him, his sweet, beautiful boyfriend, park jisung, somehow able to change his hair into silver in a span of 14 hours of them not seeing each other. he doesn't know what kind of sorcery that helps jisung to achieve this hair color, since he still need to work and apparently goes to another side of the city to buy the food they're about to eat.
don’t get him wrong, though. it’s not like he doesn’t like his boyfriend’s new hair. he likes it very much.
he Loves it.
jisung looks so good, too good, even.
it almost feels unfair.
“do you like it? does it actually look good on me?” jisung asks him before he walks to the living room and places their plates on the coffee table. he then proceed to turning their tv on and sits comfortably on their couch.
it’s unbelievable how good jisung looks right now. he’s wearing his usual sweatpants and adidas zip up hoodie that he loves so much he had a few of the same piece, leaning back comfortably on their couch, scrolling on netflix in search of what they should watch tonight, and his hair. his silver hair that reminds chenle of jack frost– his super secret cartoon crush.
it blew his mind.
but maybe that's why it affects him so much. jack frost, who he had a silly crush on a few years ago, suddenly materializes in the shape of jisung, his boyfriend. sure, he only changed his hair color, but the resemblance is uncanny. he doesn't know that he's able to fall in love all over again with the boy he's been in love with for the past few years.
chenle walks to the living room and stops right in front of jisung and sits on his lap. with eyes full of wonder, his fingers move delicately around jisung’s bangs, rearranging it.
observing chenle’s behavior, jisung raises his eyebrows and chuckles, but doesn't say anything. he places his hands on chenle’s lower back, pushing him to move closer. “so?”
he spends a little more time playing with jisung’s hair. cradling his face before he lands a kiss on both of jisung’s cheeks. “i like it.”
“i love it.” another kiss on his nose.
“i’m obsessed with it.” and another one on the corner of his lips.
chenle locks eyes with jisung, staring deeply into his soul. his arms move to slung around jisung’s shoulder, “please keep this hairstyle on you forever.” he plants another kiss on his lips, moving deliberately, showcasing just how much he likes his new hair and how much he misses his boyfriend.
jisung sucks in his breath before closing his eyes and reciprocating chenle’s kisses. he lets chenle guide how their lips move, enjoying this time as much as he can
both of them kiss at a controlled pace. their lips moving against each other languidly. jisung rests his hands against chenle’s thighs while the other plays with his new hair.
after months being busy with their own work and barely seeing each other, this is exactly what they need. a pocket of time where they can just exist and show their love to each other. a time where they can enjoy the others' presence. the time where they can ignore their responsibilities and only focus on each other.
they let each other’s lips go after a while to catch their breath. if anyone caught them right now, they could definitely see the heart eyes that appeared in both of their eyes.
“when did you even have time to do this? are you not working today?” chenle asks while holding jisung’s face, his fingers carefully tidying up his hair.
jisung smiled softly at his boyfriend and planted a kiss on his nose. “chenle, baby, it's saturday. i’m off on the weekend, remember?”
“oh.” chenle blinks dumbfoundedly, his fingers stop its movement, before he sighs and rests his head on jisung’s shoulder. “no wonder it's so packed today at the bakery..”
“oh baby.. how tired you must be until you forgot what day it is..” he’s peppering kisses on chenle’s head. the said boy just snuggles closer, like a cat, a subtle sign that he is indeed exhausted.
“i’m sorry.. i could've taken a day off from the bakery and spent today with you.” chenle pouts and looks up to stare at jisung.
jisung shakes his head and pecks chenle’s lips, “it's okay, baby. i realized it's almost christmas so it makes sense that you become even more busy.”
“but i feel bad for you..” chenle sighs and his frown goes deeper hearing his boyfriend’s response. seriously, sometimes chenle wonders how could jisung be so understanding.
“i’m really okay, though.”
“i’ll make it up to you.” chenle said with full determination.
jisung kneads chenle’s thigh and raises his eyebrows after catching chenle’s slight smirk. “oh yeah? what are you gonna do?”
“i think you know what i’m gonna do.” is the only thing chenle said before he surges forward, capturing jisung’s lips once again, kissing him with even more passion than before.
jisung brings his hands up to chenle’s waist and slips it under his shirt. he squeezes his waist before rubbing it and keeps alternating between those. chenle hums, angling his head to kiss jisung deeper. his hands move to the back of jisung’s hair, tugging at his hair there, guiding him to deepen their kiss.
he nips his boyfriend’s lower lips before sucking on it, occasionally slipping his tongue in to tease him. jisung lets out a series of whines as chenle keeps doing that.
both of them are already pressed chest to chest, yet they keep trying to move impossibly closer to each other.
truth be told, jisung doesn't expect his impulsiveness to go along with jaemin and donghyuck’s suggestion could lead up to this. he’s really hesitant to dye his hair at first. he thought that it's such a hassle to take care of a fully bleached hair, let alone a silver hair. that's why he’s so against it when both jaemin and donghyuck suggest it.
in their logic, if jisung changes his appearances, it would make chenle spend more time with him. knowing chenle, jisung knows that it definitely doesn't work like that. but still, he would do anything to at least try to make his boyfriend stay at home more and spend time with him, so he agreed.
and after seeing chenle’s reaction just now, he thought that his early disagreement doesn't really matter.
chenle licks his lips, asking for permission which jisung gladly gave. he started exploring every crevice of jisung’s mouth, giving extra care to the spot right behind his front tooth. their tongues tangle with each other a few times and chenle decides to be a menace and sucks on jisung’s, which makes him groan and buck up his hips.
he brought his hand up to chenle’s ass and kneading it. that action made chenle whine and started to rock his hips. their kiss became even more wet and messier than they’ve ever done for a while. both of them don't know if it's really just because jisung changed his hair color or because they’re too sexually frustrated.
at one point they leave each other's mouths and gasp for air. both of their gazes shared the same look of hunger. their forehead touches with dazed eyes, flushed cheeks, heavy breaths, and plump lips mirroring the other.
they stare at each other and chuckle quietly, realizing how ridiculous they are right now. hot and bothered while their food becomes cold on the table, the tv still on, playing a drama that's actually on their watchlist, yet no one is paying it any attention.
“if i knew changing my hair could make you kiss me like that, i would change it months ago.” jisung jokingly said.
chenle just smacks his chest. “i told you i’m obsessed with it.”
he proceeded to peck jisung’s lips multiple times, before continuing to pepper his jaw with kisses. jisung hums as he tilts his head up, giving chenle more access to abuse his neck. chenle’s hips also doesn't stop moving, he grinds it down even more after noting the growing tent on the younger’s pants.
a particularly hard squeeze on his butt followed by a slap made him moan and unlatch his lips from jisung’s neck. he looks up at jisung and frowns, “what was that for?”
“i just miss your butt.” jisung smiles, giving chenle’s ass another squeeze. “do you wanna continue?”
chenle just stares at jisung like he grows two heads. “yeah. of course. i miss you too much, ji. not to mention that both of us are hard.”
jisung blushes, yet he still asked, “aren’t you tired?” he fondled chenle’s butt again while occasionally spreading its cheeks.
it’s like chenle doesn't care about what he said because he started sucking and nipping his neck again. his kisses eventually move to jisung’s ear. he nibbles on it lightly before licking and sucking on it a few times which elicit a whimper out of him.
satisfied with the response he got, he whispers straight into jisung’s ear, “i do, i am tired. but i really need you to split me open right now or i swear to god—”
chenle yelps as jisung turns their position around and lays him on the couch, he places his hands on jisung’s shoulder. their lips meet in an instant as jisung grinds down and sucks on chenle’s lips.
the said boy can only whine. the sudden friction on his crotch made him buck up his hips, meeting the other movement halfway.
he brought his arms to circle around jisung’s shoulder, fingers tugs at the hair on his nape. they keep sucking each other's lips for a while, before jisung forces his way into chenle’s mouth and explores it. their tongues eventually met and both of them let out a low moan.
in an attempt to be even closer to jisung, chenle arches his back. he squeezes jisung’s biceps, before snaking his hands down to his clothed crotch and cupping his length.
jisung lets out a groan and moves away from the older’s lips. he swiftly takes both of chenle’s wrists together with one hand and pins it up above his head, which elicits a whimper out of chenle’s mouth.
“you really want to get ruined, huh?” he smirks, raising one of his stupidly perfect eyebrows. the boy under him just nods while looking at jisung with glazed eyes.
“how do you wanna do this?”
“do me here.”
——————
both jisung and chenle now lie on their bed facing each other, legs tangled while chenle is still admiring jisung’s new hair.
“do you really like my hair that much?” chenle just hums, his hands still going through jisung’s locks.
“but i thought you like my permed hair?” jisung asked, raising his eyebrows.
instead of answering immediately, chenle opt to tugs his hair and shower jisung’s face with kisses. “well, yeah. i love both actually. so your approved hair styles from me are just those two.” he grins and pecks jisung’s lips.
“you’re crazy.”
chenle raises his eyebrows, like he can’t believe his ears. “you like crazy.”
jisung just smiles, before moving to be on top of chenle and cages him, “yeah, i do. love it actually.”
and starts to kiss chenle again like a hungry man.
