Gone Away || Minsung

Ch. 2

"Father, I would like to hire a specific person to be my personal bodyguard." Jisung bowed once he greeted his father in the throne room.

It's been about a few days since Jisung and Minho had arrived at the kingdom, weeks away from Jisung taking the throne.

"Do I know of this man?" His father curiously asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Sorta, you two haven't had a proper greeting. He's the youngest son of the latest noble." Jisung then brought in Minho. "This is Lee Minho."

"Ah, I've heard much about you from your late father, may have heard what happened to your brother too. I'm sorry for your losses." The king bowed his head in gratitude.

"Well, if your going to serve my son, you need to prove yourself by going against our best trainer for our soldiers." He gestured towards one of his guards.

"I'll prove myself sir." Minho bowed while Jisung worriedly turned his focus to him.

"Minho please be careful. You're only self taught and he's practically unbeatable." Jisung worriedly fixed up Minho's hanbok before they walked out of the building for the brawl to happen.

Minho grabbed Jisung's hand, soothingly rubbing it to put the boy at ease.

"I'll be fine, besides I have more strength than the average human. If I can't win this one then I'll keep trying till I'm by your side." Minho looked deeply into his eyes, which caused Jisung to blush.

"If you don't end up by my side I'm selling your bow and arrows." Jisung pouted.

Minho chuckled before steeling a quick kiss from his lips for good luck.

Jisung's face turned red.

The two then walked out of the private room they were in and Jisung went to go take his seat next to his father while Minho was waiting for the other opponent.

Once his opponent stepped into the circle Jisung was on edge.

"Aish! It took you eleven tries to finally defeat him! You're all beaten and bruised now." Jisung quickly rushed Minho back to his room to have some privacy.

"I was only trying to fight how humans fight, weak." Minho avoided eye contact as he was embarrassed.

"Hey, you did great! You didn't give up which most would. Sleep here tonight, your body must be aching." Jisung pulled him to the bed.

"In your room? Don't I need to be on duty or something right away." Minho refused to sit down.

"It'll be fine. I'm practically your boss so you have do as I say. I want you to get as much rest as possible." The younger guided Minho to lay down, gently doing so.

As Minho had laid down on the bed, he grabbed Jisung and pulled him onto the bed. Pulling him into his embrace.

"I have such a loving boyfriend." Minho smiled wide after kissing Jisung's cheek.

Jisung's giggle didn't last long as his smile slowly went away, Minho noticing.

"What's wrong?" Minho tucked a strand of of Jisung's hair behind his ear.

"I love you so much Minho but we're both boys, if anyone finds out you might possibly get killed and I could lose the thrown and possibly my life too. I'm supposed to be with some princess my father picks out for me, and be forced to have a son with them for him to take my place. If none of that happens they will for sure hang us!" Jisung was beginning to ramble, now pulling his hair of how stressed he is.
