KINGDOM || MINJOONG

chapter twelve

Mingi's pov.

A time later and he fell asleep next to me.
I stroke over his head and played with his dark hair.

„Oh Joong...I wish you'd know that..." I whispered and laid next to him.
I pulled him closer into my arms and admired his beauty. He has so beautiful features, his lips oh his lips. His eyes are always so sparkly.

I sighed and stroke over his lips. I knew it was forbidden to admire a man but I couldn't resist. Joong is someone who I want to protect and who I want that it's mine.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

„Yah Mingi you won't catch me," the dark haired laughed and ran away.
I tried to follow him but he was too fast.

He fell in the grass and shook smiling his head.
„Are you hurt?" „No i have a lot of fun."
I sat next to him and looked at his knee, he was a bit hurt so I put my water over his knee and put a bandage over it.

„You're my best friend, do you know that?" I nodded and we laid laughing in the grass.

He took my hand and looked at me.
„Can you promise me something?" I nodded and was curious, what should I promise him?
„Promise me that we'll be friends forever and that no one can break our friendship." He hold his pinky finger in my direction and I looked at the smaller boy.

I sighed and nodded. I put my pinky to his direction and so we had a promise.

-
„Son, you aren't allowed to see Hongjoong again!" I looked at my father with teary eyes and my heart ached. I don't wanted to loose my best friend.

I woke up and I felt the sweat on my forehead.
My hands were shaking and my heart raced.

It was just a dream but it felt like I'd experience the past again. I had the same emotions like when all this had happened.

„Mingi are you ok?" I looked at Joong who seemed to be worried.
„Did you had a nightmare?" I nodded and he sighed.
„Hm about what was the dream?" I bit onto my lip and felt bad that I couldn't hold the promise from when we were kids.

„I dreamed about you and me, also our past..." His eyes widened and he sat closer to me. „Oh Mingi, I'm here ok?" I nodded and then he hugged me.

It felt so good. „What time is it?" „I'm not sure but it's in the middle of the night." I nodded and he stroke my hair back.
„Is your chest ok, I mean you had a bullet wound." He pulled my shirt up and I sighed.
I didn't pushed his hand away because I trust him.

„I don't know but I think it's ok, it doesn't hurt." He nodded and stroke over my chest.
I stared at his movements and I felt my heart beating faster. His breath were uncontrolled and he bit on his lip.
„The-" „Joong-" We looked deep into each other eyes and now I realized that we were too close.

I laid on my back and he sat next to my hip and his hands were on my body.
„Mingi...I don't know why but-" I shook my head and put my hand on his cheek.
„Joong we're too close rn..." I couldn't tell him about my feelings, that could be my death.
He was embarrassed and backed away.

He even looked away and it hurts me to see him like that.
„Joong...the thing is that-" „That what?"
He looked at me with teary eyes and I didn't knew what was going on.

„Calm down." „I can't...Mingi I...I thought-" I shook my head and pulled him in my arms.
He laid on my body and his head rested on my shoulder.

He cried in my arms and I was a bit overwhelmed. The door opened and Seonghwa came in.
His eyes widened when he saw the situation.
„Mingi...San he uh..." Joong wiped his tears away and sat up.
„You can go if-" „I won't leave you now."

„What's with San?" „He had something with Wooyoung..." I nodded and ran my hand through my hair.
„Ok ok did someone other saw that?" Hwa shook his head and I nodded.
„Say them that they should be more careful."
„You aren't angry that they're gay?" I shook my head and sighed.

„I think everyone should have the right to love whoever they want, it's their life." Joong looked at me and Hwa nodded.

„Can I tell you something?" I nodded and Hwa took a deep breath.
„I think I fell for someone...it's a boy." Joong's eyes widened and he played with his hands.
Was he jealous that Hwa could be in love with me?

„I'm so sorry...I shouldn't fell in love with him but..." „Who's he?" He bit onto his lip and sighed softly.
„It's Yeosang... " Joong clenched his fists and sighed.
I think he's angry...
