Stay with me | Minsung

On The Bus

"hey dad, i just wanted to call you since mom said you weren't feeling well, do you feel better now?"

"thank you for worrying minho, but don't worry darling I'm okay, I just feel a little bit dizzy."

"dad are you sure you don't want to go back home and take a break? You don't sound good.."

"no... It's.. Its.. O-okay"

*thud*

"d-dad? Are you there? Is everything alright?"

...

Today

"Minho!" His mother yelled his name from downstairs. "breakfast is ready!"

Minho got dressed and quickly ate breakfast, he didn't want to be late on the first day at his new school, not because he wanted to make a good first impression, only because he didn't want to bring any more attention to himself than he had to.

Him and his mother had to move to another city when his father died. It happened two months ago, he died from a heart attack. Minho is still blaming himself, maybe if he had called the ambulance earlier his dad wouldn't have died.

Minho had a good relationship with his father, after everything happened, his psychiatrist told him to take antidepressants, so now he had to take them daily.

...

"ah shit, i almost missed the bus" Minho said to himself in between heavy breaths.

There wasn't any empty seat as he looked around the vehicle.

"Hi! You can sit beside me if you want." said a boy that was around his age.

Minho thought about it for a second, he didn't want to sit beside a stranger but also he didn't want to stand for 30 minutes, so he chose to sit beside the light brown haired boy.

"what's your name?" the boy asked and waited for a response. "not much of a talker huh? That's okay, I'm Jisung by the way. I've never seen you around here, did you just move in? To be honest I've been living here my whole life and I have never seen someone as good looking as you!" jisung smiled at Minho.

Minho was quiet while jisung talked during whole ride, minho acted uninterested in what the brown haired was saying, but in reality he was paying attention to every single word.

"oh well this is my stop, it was nice talking to you, see ya!" jisung said and quickly got off the bus, what he didn't notice was that Minho got off too, because the bus stop was right beside their school.

...

"Good morning class, today a new student will join us, please introduce yourself."

"hello, my name is lee minho and I'm 17 years old" Minhos voice quivered a bit while introducing himself to the whole class, but he tried to not seem nervous.

"thank you minho, you may go sit in any of the empty seats" said the teacher.

Minho sat at the complete back of the class, then he heard a quiet whisper near him.

"so lee minho? Nice to see you again" jisung whispered.

Minho just ignored him, again.

"you know you can't ignore me all the time" the light haired boy sighed.

'try me' minho thought. He didn't want to talk to anybody, not even his mother ever since.. You know. And he wasn't planning on changing it because he could only rely on himself. Many people have betrayed him in the past, he doesn't want it to happen again.

...

The bell rang and students scattered around the school buildings.
Particularly jisung joined a few boys that were talking and eating outside.

"hey jisung!" A freckled boy hugged him.

"what's up guys? What were you talking about?" jisung asked since he was the last one to arrive to their little spot.

"just about the new student that came today, he seemed very... Cold." said a wolf-resembling boy with dimples.

"i don't know, he might just be shy in front of all the new people" stated the maknae.

They all continued talking for a few minutes, jisung trying to make everyone laugh until realising that their break is almost over.

"uh jisung, aren't you going to eat?" asked his freckled friend.

"n-no i already ate before i came here" jisung wanted to slap himself for stuttering over such a basic question.

"but you-"

"hey look it's the new student!" the maknae said as he pointed over to him.

Minho was sitting on an empty bench with headphones on his head and music playing loudly in them. He was trying to silence the thoughts blaming him for loosing his father.

"the break is going to be over soon" jisung came up to him.

"i should probably head to class then" Minho picked up his bag and stood up.

"but wait!" jisung quickly added. "can we be friends?" he hesitantly asked.

"no" Minho said and walked away.

...

"wow jisung you got rejected!" his friends laughed, they were watching the scene from afar.

"hahaha yeah" jisung tried to laugh it off, but in reality he was thinking about what he did wrong, jisung always tried to be nice and make everyone happy... Was it the way he said something? Or maybe his appearance? That was probably it. Who would want to be friends with someone like him? His current friends are talking to him just because they feel bad, right?

"c'mon jisung, stop spacing out! Class is starting."

"oh yeah, sorry" jisung quickly picked up his belongings and followed Chan, jeongin and felix.

...

'why does he keep bothering me?' minho thought, minho definitely wasn't a bad person, but if he didn't react so harshly, the squirrel-like boy, apparently called Jisung wouldn't leave him alone. But he's met many people like jisung, they want to be friends but when things go wrong and you need them... they leave and move on like he was never even there.

As he was already on his assigned seat,he noticed jisung coming to class, he looked disappointed, maybe even sad. He wasn't as bubbly like before.

"is it because of me? Was i too harsh?" Minho asked himself quietly. He never meant to make anyone feel bad, he was just scared of getting close to people.
