Jisung looked at his broken phone barely seeing the contact on his phone. Putting back in his pocket to avoid water damage he continued letting it ring. He was standing at the Haengju Bridge stareing out to the water below. Rain spitting making tricling sounds as it hits the water. The cloudy skies rolling over, the wind calm but breezy. Jisung was cold to begin with the moment the rain started but by now he was drenched. He wasn't sure why the events with Minho earlier that day were awkward. Blush creeping to his face.

Don't think like this. He doesn't like you Jisung.

His mind wandered to how Minho looked at him as he attempted to help him get dressed. They had already kissed, was it that awkward. Did he not want to commit... A part of him pushing him away, made that evident. Hisung wasn't mad at him, in fact he understood. He himself had only been in 1 relationship and it never lasted.

Suddenly his mind went south.

Oh. The thoughts that ran through his head. But a part of him knew. He just knew it wouldn't make his life better. Infact he thought about this exact moment. If he did survive it meant therapy and alot of medication. He didn't want that.

His phone went off again and jIsung sighed. He just wanted to drown in the rain and sorrow.

But somehow seeing Chans name vividly on his phone, made dark thoughts roll away.

He answered but stayed silent.

"Jisung! Thank god. Are you okay? You really just dissappeared. Its cold and rainy and you have no jacket." Chan rambled, on and Jisung just listened.

"Anyways. Where are you. I really need your help. Minho isn't doing good."

Minho? He was fine a few hours ago...

"Minho is going to do something stupid and I really can't help him through this. I know you are probably wondering why I am being vague about this..."

Jisung started walking down the sidewalk of the bridge back to a safe and rather dry area.

"Why?"

"I know you have a bad relationship with Hyunjin. I know what he does to you. But Minho is in dire need of help."

"Chan... I'm just a no one. What makes you think Minho will listen to someone like me. Isn't this his problem? Why is it a big deal? Are they going to fight?"

Chan sighed over the phone.

"Jisung please... theres no way he will listen to be. But you might be able to get him back. He was mentally abused by Hyunjin. Hyunjin is his ex-"

Jisung stopped.

"Who?!" Jisung swore he thought he stopped breathing.

Ex?

Hyunjin and Minho are? Were?

"Of all people it involves, I'm sorry it had to be Hyunjin... I'm sorry Jisung, I am. I don't think its fair keeping you in the dark. But Hyunjin isnt good for Minho. He isn't thinking straight. I need you to help me. I need you stop him from meeting Hyunjin. He won't listen to me." Chans voice was low and frail.

Was that why? He had a past with his bully? Is that why he pushed away.

"Look, You can hate the both of them but right now, if we don't convince Minho to stop him from meeting Hyunjin tonight... You may lose one of the only people who believes in you. And not just as Jisung but as J-one!"

"How-"

"I've always known Sungs. It wasn't rocket science. I know your voice, forgive me later, but help me find Minho. I think he may have headed back to the dorms."
