Off Key

#47

It was morning when everyone was in their classrooms. Chan had texted that he had something to announce at lunch as well as Seungmin.

A lot was going to go down at lunch and some of the boys were curious to know what was going on, as some were dreading it.

"Hey, Minho," Jisung called out, sitting next to Minho in class. Minho and Jisung had arrived extra early for some weird reason. "Hey," Minho called out in response. He notice the younger had a bag of chips, as he was munching on them loudly.

"Want some?" Jisung offered, shoving the bag in front of Minho's face. "Here, I'll feed you." Jisung grabbed a chip and placed it in front of Minho's mouth. Minho gladly took the chip with his mouth, not breaking eye contact with the younger.

"Wait, these are good," Minho said as he tasted it. He snatched the whole bag, eating chips as Jisung froze not believing he took his bag. "Give me. They're mine." Jisung said, whining, trying to reach them as Minho held them high and away from him.

"Here, I'll feed you," Minho said in a copying tone. He grabbed a chip but did something unexpected.

He placed the chip in his mouth, getting closer to the younger.

Jisung turned bright red, feeling flustered but didn't want Minho to win.

He got closer and bit the other side of the chip, being inches apart from kissing.

Minho froze not expecting that once Jisung pulled back. Jisung saw this opportunity to steal his chips back and continued munching on them like nothing happened.

Minho looked forward, waiting for class to start, feeling his heartbeat a little too fast.

It was already lunchtime, and everyone was shaking, nervous for this meeting.

They all met up on the roof, as they gathered in a circle.

"So, we all have some announcements to say. Why don't Jisung and Minho go first?" Chan said, feeling anxious.

"Well, I was in the hospital because Kimmy attacked us," Minho said making everyone gasp but kind of not surprised. "What the fuck, how?" Felix questioned. "Wait, are you okay?" Felix then rephrased himself.

"Yeah, I'm fine but I got cut by a brick so I had to get stitches behind my ear." He said, trying to show everyone behind his ear. "Hold on, she threw a brick?" Seungmin questioned, feeling confused. "She threw a brick through the window like at 3 in the morning," Jisung said.

"Wait, how do you know for sure it was her?" Chan asked, just to be sure. "There was a note on the brick, that specifically said, 'back off Minho. Jisung is mine.' Who else could it be?" Minho said, making the rest surprised about the note.

"How dare she claim Jisung, knowing damn well, he's already Minho's," Felix said making the two sigh but laugh. "We just have to be on guard of Jisung and maybe have a talk with Kimmy," Chan said, trying to come up with an idea. "You mean, you'll talk to Kimmy?" Hyunjin said to Chan. "No, like all of us."

They all looked at each other, avoiding Chan's gaze. "Seriously?" Chan asked. "We believe in you!" Changbin said putting his fist up in the air. Chan took a big sigh to compose himself. "Fine, I'll talk with her after school." He said.

"Okay, so onto the next topic of this discussion," Chan said, looking at Seungmin with sad eyes. "Oh yeah, what was it that you guys wanted to announce?" Hyunjin said, a bit excited for what to expect. He kind of just wanted the meeting to end soon, so he could talk to Seungmin.

"So, um, we found out that our parents... know each other?" Seungmin said as he looked at all his members. "Cool, how?" Jeongin asked.

The two felt their hearts breaking, more and more seeing their crushes in front of them.
