jaemin wasn't the kind of person to take walks to clear his mind, he preferred to just bury problems in the back of his mind and deal with them later. on that one day, however, he felt like taking a walk.
what he didn't expect to see was his crush kissing his enemy.
jaemin watched renjun cut off whatever jeno was saying with a quick kiss. jaemin wasn't stupid though, he knew not to assume the worst, so instead of running away, he simply watched them with a smirk. he was proven right when jeno's eyebrows furrowed and it looked like the boy was panicking based on how his hands were moving everywhere and he was quick to gather his things.
jaemin leaned against a nearby tree and his smile grew when jeno walked in his direction, leaving a frowning renjun behind. jeno still hadn't spotted the pink haired boy so jaemin pretended to continue his walk and "accidentally" bumped into jeno.
"oh, hey jeno." jaemin showed his charming smile and jeno's eyes widened before realizing it was jaemin.
"thank god you're here." this time it was jaemin's eyebrows that furrowed when jeno took his wrist and dragged him out of the park.
"jeno, what happened?" jaemin asked, acting clueless. jeno remained quiet and jaemin noticed they were walking towards jeno's apartment block. he stayed quiet until jeno decided to speak and the older boy finally did once they were in jeno's apartment.
he flopped on to the couch with a sigh and held his head in his hands. "nana, i messed up."
jaemin sat down next to jeno and gently placed a hand on his knee, signalling that he was listening.
"renjun asked me on a date a few days ago and i said yes. i assumed he meant a friend date, i know i sound dumb but renjun never showed any signs of liking me in that way. we got ice cream and went to the park which wasn't too weird since we always did that before he moved to china, but then i was rambling on about something and he just kissed me out of nowhere. i didn't know what to do so i just apologized and left and then i ran into you." jeno ranted without stopping and jaemin let him, nodding his head every few seconds.
"that's not your fault sunshine, you can't force yourself to like him." jeno nodded and laid his head on the younger's shoulder. jaemin smiled and played with jeno's hair, sitting against the back of the couch so they'd both be comfortable.
"do you want to watch a movie?" jeno looked up at jaemin without moving his head and jaemin nodded, handing jeno the remote. jeno was quick to choose a movie before snuggling closer to jaemin. jaemin looked at the movie and raised an eyebrow.
"i didn't think you'd be much of a horror person."
jeno giggled.
"i'm not."
they had gotten halfway through the movie and jeno was practically on top of jaemin. his face was hidden in the crook of jaemin's neck, not that the younger was complaining. jaemin had his arm wrapped around jeno's waist while jeno clung to his hoodie.
"did you pick a horror so you could do this?" jaemin chuckled when jeno looked up with red cheeks and nodded before quickly shoving his head back into jaemin's neck. jaemin shook his head and kissed jeno's head, making the older blush more. he was thankful that jaemin couldn't see, knowing he'd never stop teasing him.
"jeno, are you still going to talk to renjun?" jeno hesitantly sat up, surprised at the sudden seriousness of jaemin's voice.
"i mean, he is my friend."
"you can't trust him." jeno tilted his head in confusion.
"what do you mean, nana?"
"please sunshine, just trust me. he didn't leave korea for the reason you think, he isn't safe to be around. please trust me." jeno could see the way jaemin's eyes were practically dripping with worry so he nodded. he felt safe with the pink haired boy even if that had only met weeks prior.
jaemin let out a sigh of relief and threw his arms around jeno, engulfing him in a tight hug.
"thank you, jen. i promise you won't regret it."
