Off Key

#31

Jisung was pacing back and forth in his room, nervous about how the night was gonna go. Minho decided that he was going to pick up Jisung and drop him off.

Ok, why am I nervous, I've met plenty of my friend's parents. Don't worry, you got this!

Jisung went to his closet and searched for his best outfit. "And where are you going?" Ms. Han asked laying against the open door.

"Mom, you're home... I thought you were working today." Jisung said, shocked. "No not today, but where are you going?" Ms. Han persisted. "A friend invited me over to meet his mom. His name's Minho." Jisung said, going back to his closet.

"I've heard you mention him, I think. Do you want me to drive you?" She asked. "No thanks. Minho's picking me up and dropping me off." Jisung said. "Wow, what a gentleman." Ms. Han said making Jisung laugh.

"Also, there's something I need to tell you," Jisung said, making Ms. Han panic. "What?" She asked, getting closer. "I'm in a band," Jisung said, looking at his mother. "Oh, that's okay. Reminds me of your father." Ms. Han smiled to herself.

"Are you producing?" She asked making Jisung nod his head. "God, you are your father's son." She said giggling. "Also, would you like to meet Minho?" Jisung asked. "Of course I would. Is he in the band too?" She asked. "Yeah, the drummer," Jisung said smiling to himself. Ms. Han took notice of that.

"Hmm, well, I'll let you change, let me know when he's here." Ms. Han said leaving the room and closing the door. Please let her like Minho...

An hour later, Jisung was changed and heard the doorbell ring. "I'LL GET IT!" Jisung said almost tripping over himself, getting to the door. Jisung opened the door and found himself in complete shock with Minho's looks.

Jisung stood there, mouth wide open, and a little bit of drool dripping from his mouth. "Jisung.. you look good," Minho said, stunned by how handsome Jisung looked. "Y-you too," Jisung said, stuttering. "Is it Minho?" Ms. Han asked, opening the door, fully.

Minho suddenly got nervous. "Hi, Ms. Han," Minho said greeting her. "Nice to meet you Minho." She said, looking at her son who was still staring at Minho. "You're very handsome, isn't he, Jisung?" She asked looking at her son. "Very," Jisung said, making Minho slightly blush. "Thank you," Minho said.

Jisung suddenly realized he was staring and shook his head. "Um, we should get going mom, bye," Jisung said pulling Minho away from the house. "Nice meeting you!" Minho said as Jisung was dragging him.

"Your mom is nice," Minho said, opening the door for Jisung. "Thanks," Jisung said, suddenly remembering where he was going.

"Stop lying!" Jeongin said, slightly shoving Hyunjin. "I'm not! I don't have a crush on Seungmin!" Hyunjin said.

The two were on their way to Jeongin's house, to hang out when Jeongin started bringing up Hyunjin's love for Seungmin.

"The way you look at him and act towards him is the definition of love!" Jeongin persisted. Hyunjin ignored Jeongin. "Fine, ignore me but don't come crying to me when it's too late," Jeongin said, pointing his finger. "Same goes for you," Hyunjin said, crossing his arms.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Jeongin asked. "Please, you're still in love with Chan," Hyunjin said. "I like him, I'll ADMIT that but I'm never telling him," Jeongin said. "And why not?" Hyunjin questioned. "Because he doesn't like me." He said. Hyunjin scoffed.

"You need to take your own advice. Tell him before it's too late." Hyunjin said, sincerely. "No, I don't see the point when he doesn't like me," Jeongin said. "But he does." Jeongin scoffed. "And how do you know that?" Hyunjin stayed silent. "Exactly," Jeongin said, winning.
