Maybe I just wanna be yours | Minsung

I will never rust

Jeongin opened the door to reveal a teary Hyunjin, a bruise clearly visible, despite the lighting, forming on his cheek.

"oh my god, what did he do this time?!" Jeongin panicked as he took Hyunjin's face into his hands.

Hyunjin just cried harder, face scrunching up and letting Jeongin close the door behind him and sit him down on his bed.

By now Jisung was fully awake, sat upright on his bed and worry washing over him at the thought of what happened to the crying boy.

"he-he got mad and h-hit me" Hyunjin choked between sobs, letting his head droop down as Jeongin wiped his tears away with his thumb, careful not to hurt his bruise.

"what the fuck is wrong with him?" Jeongin sighed, feeling frustrated and upset at the sight of his friend so animatedly broken in front of him.

He'd seen Hyunjin cry before, but nothing quite like this and it really made him angry to know that Minho had caused this.

Jeongin decided not to pry out any more answers from Hyunjin considering his current state, and Jisung really respected him for that.

"s-sorry you had to see that" Hyunjin turned to Jisung, sniffling and wiping his nose on his sleeve.

"no it's okay, don't worry about that" Jisung tried his best to sound reassuring despite his sleepy state.

Jeongin allowed Hyunjin to fall asleep in his bed, the tall boy cuddling close to the wall and hugging the corner of the duvet close to his chest for comfort.

"There's something about Minho.." the younger started speaking after a while, staring at the ceiling with confusion written all over his face despite Jisung being unable to properly see it with the darkness surrounding them. "he can't be like this for no reason, right? Like, there has to be a reason, and I want to know what that reason is"

"true, but with the way I've seen him act, do you think he's gonna answer that for you?" Jisung responded, thinking hard.

"you're right, he definitely won't. It's been on my mind for ages, and I get the feeling Chan knows more than we do."

"what makes you think that?" Jisung asks, turning to face Jeongin fully.

"I don't know, it's just that whenever Minho is mad Chan is able to take him away and talk to him. I don't exactly know if they talk about why he's mad or Chan just talks about something random to calm him down, but it's always Chan. Minho never tries to approach anyone else when he's in a bad mood" Jeongin confessed.

"huh, that's strange. Well if he is telling Chan things he's not telling you guys then at least he has someone he feels comfortable talking to about it." Jisung spoke calmly.

"yeah, you're right. Sorry for the small rant but it's really been playing on my mind"

"no worries" Jisung smiled before turning over in his bed, chasing his state of unconsciousness.

The morning came along quickly, Jisung waking up at the ripe ol' time of 6:34 am specifically.

He looked down at the end of his bed to see Jeongin applying some cream to Hyunjin's cheek where an angry bruise sat from the night before, the older wincing whenever he would press on it too hard.

Getting up, Jisung got ready for the day and groaned as he saw he had no free periods at all today.

"what do you have first lesson?" Jeongin asked, keeping his attention on creaming up Hyunjin's gorgeous face.
