Do you remember me? (skz fanfiction)

Hyunjin PoV

The day had been fun. Minho and I got along very well and it was nice to talk to each other when we didn't have any worries. 

Seungmin, Felix, Jisung and Chan were already waiting at the meeting point we had agreed on. We walked up to them and when Jisung saw Minho he smiled broadly and showed him a rabbit stuffed animal. "Look Hyung. He looks like you!" Minho smiled slightly and barely visible, then said, "If you say so."

"It really looks like you! I call him mini-Minho." The older one laughed and replied playfully, "Stop being so childish." 

The four of us watched the two of them and Chan mumbled so only we could hear, "Like they're soulmates." I smiled and we all agreed.

Minutes passed but Jeongin and Changbin just didn't show up. We waited and waited. I found myself beginning to worry. "Guys, those two are keeping us waiting for quite a while now," I said but then I could see two people approaching us and I relaxed. The two were finally here. The younger of the two waved at us and I could already see his big smile from afar.

I had to smile. Everything was perfect. It couldn't be nicer and I knew that the others thought so too. Of course, not everything was as we thought our lives would be. But here we could start all over again. "Guys! We found a very beautiful place. There is a lake there and it looks really pretty. We want to show it to you," Jeongin said happily, and Changbin nodded while smiling.

"Now? Shouldn't we have something to eat first?" Chan asked but the younger one really wanted to go there. Felix put his hand on Chan's shoulder and said, "Well I think that sounds like a good idea." Chan gave up and we followed the two to the lake.

As I walked alongside Jeongin, I noticed a chat from the two elders who were walking behind us. I listened. "Don't you think that Jeongin acts somehow... differently?" Minho asked the older one who answered softly. "No... Not that I noticed anything. Who knows what happened while he was trying to get to us." The other was silent for a moment and then said: "Mhm... yes you're probably right."

I glanced back and saw Jisung join the two. He folded his hands with Minhos and started to tell things with a smile. I looked forward again and then saw Jeongin's hand dangling beside him. I wanted to interlock my fingers with his. I wanted to grab his warm hands and never let go. I took his hand slightly hesitantly, which was why he looked at me for a brief moment and then just smiled warmly.

After a short time walking I could smell water. And then we could already see the lake. As Jeongin told us, it looked really nice. The trees stood there as if they had been planted that way on purpose. The grass was beautifully green and the white daisies made everything look even more prettier. I would have liked to get out my drawing pad and start drawing the view right away. I memorized everything in detail so that I could draw it later.

"You didn't lie. This place looks so pretty it almost doesn't seem real," Seungmin said with a smile on his lips. Jisung ran to the grass and hopped, throwing his arms in the air. "This place is beautiful!" he yelled laughing and I could see how Minho couldn't stop smiling. He looked at him like he would never want to take his eyes off. As if Jisung was the only thing that caught his eye. His gaze was so soft, caring and loving. To find someone like that who is looking at you the way Minho was looking at Jisung in this moment is just wonderful.

"And he said that Jisung was only being clingy. What a liar," I mumbled, which no one heard, while a smile formed on my lips. 

We all went to Jisung and sat down on the lawn with our eyes on the lake. As always, I sat next to Jeongin who calmly looked at the lake. The sun slowly went down and disappeared behind the trees which made everything look orange. The color orange has always made me feel warm. It was just a comforting color.

It was quiet. But it wasn't an awkward silence. We enjoyed the silence and we breathed in the pure air and realized that everything was better again.

I heard Changbin say something silently in Minho's ear. I didn't understand what he was saying, but it seemed important and serious. "We'll be right back," Minho said, and the two got up and walked a big distance away from us. A few of us looked after them, but then turned back to the lake. 

"You like Minho very much. Am I right, Ji?" Chan said and the aforementioned had to smirk warmly. 

"Yes..." he exhaled contentedly, "Yes, I like him a lot. More than a lot. It's like my heart almost bursts out of my chest every time he looks at me, or talks to me, or touches me. For a long time I didn't believe that love existed but then he came into my life and showed me how wrong I was. I'm pretty sure he feels the same way, but I haven't been able to tell him exactly how I feel. I want to wait and don't want to rush anything. But then I'm afraid he'll get bored and look for someone new." His head bowed and he looked slightly sad.

"Take your time. Tell him when you're ready. I'm pretty sure he'll wait no matter how long it takes you to tell him how you feel," Felix said, smiling at the one day older person than him. 

"But-" Jisung was about to say something when Seungmin interrupted him, "You're worrying too much. But it's unnecessary and a complete waste of time. Really trust us, Minho isn't impatient."

Jisung nodded smiling and started humming a song to himself. 

Out of the corner of my eye I could see Changbin and Minho. Changbin held something in his hand and walked closer to Minho whose body language looked...

scared.

I focused on the item in Changbin's hand and I was shocked. 

"Guys, Changbin has a knife."
