Toxic 𖤈 ∫ JaemJen

𖤈 Chapter Fifty-Four: Keep Lying

"I can't believe I'm doing this," muttering to himself, Jaemin double checks the address Patrine had sent him via text to see if he had read it wrong or not.

But firstly, he checks himself on his rear view mirror and runs his fingers through his blond locks, which was styled up with a little bit of hair gel.

He wasn't wearing anything too fancy or being extra, it is not like he's trying to impress anyone and plan on getting laid tonight when he already has someone for him.

Unfortunately, that special person will not be attending tonight's party with them; having to deal with more personal stuff first.

He accidentally scrolls through his phone and comes across Jeno's recent message.

"Good luck! Have fun, bubby. But not too much fun with some random chick >:("

A chuckle escapes his lips, the message making him amused and weirdly enough, making him more impatient on hoping to see Jeno soon.

Looking up from his phone as he takes his car key out, he furrows his eyebrows at the building in front of him with a bunch of people around the place.

"Do you think they'll show up?" Haechan's words has Renjun rolling his eyes at him in return.

"It's a party, people like Jeno are most likely to be present at times like this." He answers, "but what I'm really hoping for is Jaemin to be here so we can talk."

"Well, I saw Patrine and Hakim by the garden.... If you spot Jeno anywhere, let me know." Haechan said as he looks around one more time.

Before Renjun could give him a thumbs up, he lets out a loud gasp and snatches the elder boy by his arm, shaking him with so much force.

Renjun groans in pain as he asks, "what?!" Pulling his arm off Haechan's tight grip due to his instinct.

"I see him! He's here!"

"Who? Jeno?"

"No, Jaemin! Wait– just Jaemin?" Haechan scrunches his face in confusion when he spots the awaited blond haired boy entering the crowded building.

Alone.

"Do you think Jeno's late or something?" He turns his head to look at Renjun who shrugs his shoulders in response.

"Doesn't matter, at least he came. Now come on!" This time, it was Renjun pulling Haechan by his wrist with so much force, bumping into several people on their way to Jaemin.

The blond haired boy who was looking around for Jeno's friends, who are beginning to be his own as well, catches a glimpse of his best friends.

He watches Renjun from the corner of his eye, basically stomping over to where he was with Haechan right on his tail seemingly whining at him about being dragged along.

He pretends to not notice them or at least ignore them, hastily trying to find Amy, Patrine or Hakim amongst the sea of sweaty people so he'd have another reason to rush off.

But unfortunately for him, the second he spots Amy jumping on her feet, dancing along with some strangers or people she might've knew, he was too late.
