Between Us

Part 4

He saw Junmyeon this morning and he didn't look good. He looked like he didn't sleep well. Since he came back, from China, yesterday in the evening, he didn't get to talk to the other. And Junmyeon wasn't even meeting his eyes. Was the other ignoring him? That can't be.

We talked on the phone when he, with EXO-M members went to China, it was okay and now all of a sudden, he's changed? Maybe, he was overthinking, again. It has just been a day, not even a complete day. The other might be busy. Or anything. He would find a way to talk to him.

And he did. He caught him on the roof, in the evening, he was listening to songs, he guessed as he saw him with earphones and was laying down on beside the swimming pool.

"Hey"

He said, feeling nervous all of a sudden. Why was he nervous, he had no idea.

"Hi"

The other replied, sitting up. He walked towards the older and set beside him.

"How are you?"

"I'm good."

Yixing nodded.

"You?"

Junmyeon asked, not looking at him, but he could feel the eyes of other on him.

"I'm good."

He answered.

"How was it there? In China?"

"It was good. We had fun. "

And an expected silence settled between them.

"Good"

Junmyeon, after a long break, said.

"I missed you"

Yixing said, making the other blush, but the smile soon disappeared as soon as it came. Junmyeon looked sad.

"I shouldn't have said that, right?"

He said, more to himself than to the other. Junmyeon shook his head.

"I missed you too."

"Oh"

That's all Yixing could utter, before he put his hand on other's chin, making him to look him in the eyes.

"Do I have your permission to kiss you?"

Junmyeon giggled,

"What language are you speaking?"

"English"

Junmyeon burst out laughing, falling in the pool, but Yixing caught him, giggling too. Junmyeon nodded, still laughing:

"Yes, sir"

And Yixing kissed him, All the time he was thinking about Junmyeon and his lips. His mind kept wandering to him. Junmyeon's laugh, his voice and then his lips, he had tasted all. And he loved that.

With a last peck on his lips, Junmyeon realized he was sitting on the other's lap, he blushed, but didn't try to sit away.

"I thought you were igno-"

And Junmyeon was alert and stood up, as they heard some footsteps. He looked around to find something to hide. He looked terrified. Yixing had never seen that look on his face. It was heart breaking, the way he roamed around looking for something to hide in.

And Yixing watched him, then there was a call from downstairs and the footsteps retreated. Yixing saw him relaxing, sighing and then he looked back at him and then away, muttering,

"I should go back. It's late."

And he was gone.
