Addiction

And syrup is still syrup, in a sippy cup.

Soft and slow steps filled the dark, empty park, as both Jeongin and Chan went out for their 3rd walk this week.

It was comfortably quiet, as Jeongin kept stealing glances from the older. It was no lie that Jeongin had developed feelings for Chan, but he was so busy collecting himself off of the ground to even realize the small crush he had on the said man.

Chan just went with the flow, also being quite unsure about his feelings for Jeongin, it was just to early to tell, and he definitely knew the younger was hiding something, but chose not to ask into it. After all he was 'still' just some of the younger's flings.

"Hey Jeongin.." Chan spoke, interrupting the comforting silence between them both, making Jeongin pay attention to the older's next work.

"A week ago..when you called me up, and I asked into you're parents-".

Chan was interrupted by a heavy sigh from the younger. Jeongin still didn't think it was time, and he wouldn't burden Chan with his life story. All he really could tell was that he rarely spoke to them, which was almost true.

"I know....I know you're curious, and I know it might be frustrating to hear my next words. But I'm not ready to tell you, i...don't fully trust you.....I'm sorry for ruining then moment" Jeongin spoke carefully, trying to minimize the hurtful words as much as he could.

Chan indeed felt a bit hurt, but he did expect those words from the younger. Jeongin seemed so lost to him, like a fragile, injured baby fox.

"No...no you did not ruin the moment, I shouldn't had asked such personal information....I just thought maybe we would get closer, but I fully understand you can't talk about that topic..yet" Chan spoke as he gave Jeongin a reassuring smile, which the younger responded back too.

"Thank you...I should probably call mg friend to pick me up soon, he would be worried if I was gone for to long" Jeongin muttered out, clinging on to the older, not wanting the moment to end but knew it was time to retrieve back to his house.

He really enjoyed staying at Chan's place for a bit. Even though they mainly hooked up, they still did non sexual stuff, such as cuddling and cooking together, Which Jeongin enjoyed a lot. So it was a bit understandable that Jeongin was a bit moody about ending his long hang out with the older.

"He? Who's that?".

Jeongin could feel the way Chan stepped a bit back, as his grabbed on Jeongin's hand loosened a bit.

"Oh! His name is Hyunjin, we've been friends since we were infants! I think you'll like him" Jeongin replied, feeling happy once Chan's grib lm his hands tightened again.

Chan just nodded in response as he took in the little piece of information Jeongin had just spilled, which made him feel a little less skeptical and unsure.

They finally stood by a rather big parking lot, seeing a grey colored Kia pull up.

The door opened as a tall male, aka Hyunjin stepped out of the car, grinning widely once he saw the two's intertwined hands, pouting a bit.

"Not fair! Seungmin doesn't hold my hand like that" Hyunjin huffed as he went on to smiling at the older who stood slightly awkward, processing Hyunjin's features, as he got a bit self concious.

"Oh hi! I'm Hyunjin, we didn't get to speak at the club, but it's nice meeting  you!" Hyunjin spoke, glancing back and forth between Chan and Jeongin.

Jeongin felt quite nervous to see both their reactions to each other, especially after the amount of times Jeongin was able to speak about Chan in such a short period of time.

"I'm Chan...nice to meet you, Jeongin only told me about you seconds ago".

As Chan finished speaking, Jeongin felt Hyunjin's eyes on him as he slowly looked over to Hyunjin, only to find him glaring burning holes into his body.

"Ya! You dare speak nonstop about this man, and then not even mention me at all?!" Hyunjin spoke staring in disbelief as he just turned around.

Chan chuckled slightly, as Jeongin was busy blushing as he tried to hide it as much as possibly.

"Jinnie, there's some stuff that you just don't have to say out loud!" The younger whined as the blush on his cheeks tinted redder.

Chan just smiled to himself as both of the seemingly younger boys began arguing. He was feeling more relieved knowing that Jeongin have been talking about him to the unknown male in front of him.

"Shush! I'm gonna push a button saying "ignore Jeongin" Hyunjin muttered out as he turned to Chan with a smug smile.

"Hope I'll get to talk to you again, I hope you don't mind me kidnapping him" Hyunjin spoke, while Jeongin was busy hiding himself in the older's car, still blushing from the the said person, who decided to straight up expose the younger.

Jeongin couldn't help but to just sigh in response, closing his eyes as he let the males talk privately, as he felt his body drift into a heavy slumber.
