Part-1
"What do you think about my dress, Jeno?" Leah twirled around her sparkly dress that her mother brought for the party.
"You look very pretty Leah. Jaemin would definitely love it." Jeno replied with a pained smile. The three of them were eighteen at the time. Jeno and Leah were childhood friends and Jaemin was her crush who studied at the same school as them.
But Jeno would never tell her that he harbors the same feelings for Jaemin as well.
"I know, I know. There's no one prettier than me in this room and Jaemin would never bat an eye on anyone else. Others are scum anyway!" Leah flipped her hair and smiled.
It hurt Jeno but he didn't comment on it. He didn't know if he was beautiful enough for Jaemin to bat an eye on him too.

The party started and Jeno dreaded every moment of it. It wasn't something he was into. These business parties that his parents organized were filled with materialistic people. He sat down in a secluded corner of the room, sipping wine. Leah left him for her friends after commenting how boring he was. He wanted to cry when her friends laughed at him.
Jeno checked his watch. Jaemin still didn't arrive. It was pretty late and Jeno grew tensed. It wasn't like he was super close with him or anything. They just smiled at one another if they met in the halls at school.
"Hi can you please open this for me? Oh Jeno is that you?" A cheerful voice drew Jeno's attention. There stood Yoona. She was two grades below Jeno and he knew that she was interested in him.
Leah tried setting them up countless times but Jeno always denied. She was pretty, kind and everything but Jeno's interest was solely on someone else.
"Hi Yoona, nice to meet you. Here!" Jeno took the carton of strawberry milk and opened it for her.
She shyly took it from him and was about to drink it when someone harshly grabbed it from her hand, almost spilling the contents.
"Hi there Yoona! Sorry for the strawberry milk!" Jaemin gulped down the contents in one go and gave her a big smile. Yoona got a little scared with how unusual Jaemin was behaving. Therefore she quietly left with an unsure smile directed at Jeno who was beyond shocked at what just happened.
"Why did you do that Jaemin?" Jeno asked with a hint of irritation. He honestly had no idea why Jaemin was behaving that way. It was out of character for him to act so weird.
Jeno observed his wrinkled suit snd his disheveled brown hair. His eyes were red and swollen. Was he drunk? Moreover as far as Jeno knew, Jaemin was lactose intolerant and he disliked strawberries.
"Just felt like it dumbass." A hint of sarcasm was visible in his tone. But what Jeno could see in his pretty eyes was sadness. There was desperation for someone to understand them.
"Are you drunk?" Jeno enquired.
"Oh I wish I was. But unfortunately I just want to be honest today Jeno." Jaemin smiled at him as tears started filling up his eyes. Jeno didn't know what to do but obviously didn't want Jaemin to cry in a hall full of fake people.
"Do you want to go somewhere else? I can call Leah-" Jeno offered but was interrupted by Jaemin who held the empty carton of strawberry milk up.
"NO...I want us to be alone." Jaemin looked directly into Jeno's eyes with so much fury that it scared him. He really wanted to know what exactly was happening to Jaemin.
"Okay, Okay. Let's go." Jeno led the way.
