Dream in a Dream

~Best Friend~

[Johnny's POV]

"Johnny, I swear I never knew." Yubin said.

I grabbed the phone from her hands. Zooming the picture in. Then I swipe to see another and another. "Could you send this to me?" She quickly nods her head and begins tapping on her phone. A few moments later my phone buzzed.

"Johnny? Are you okay?"

I shook my head. "No. But you just helped me in a way I never expected. Thanks."

She smiled slightly. "Well, I'm glad but I have to get going. I'm sorry for such a short visit but time for me is sadly money." She walked to the door. I follow behind her and we hug. While I'm close enough to her I whisper in her ear

"Don't tell anyone you came here. After you leave delete those photos. Delete our text. Just pretend this never happened." I felt her head shaking meaning she understood. I opened the door for her, and she walked out. I locked the door behind her. Scrambling to get my mind back together.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"SMILE!" Mark held his camera up to me and I made a funny face as his camera shuttered. "Come on! Why!?" I laughed as he pouted.

"Because I am funny. Besides the photo will look great either way." I patted his shoulder as the film fell out of the camera onto the grass.

"Ha. Ha. Funny Johnny. Hehe." he said.

"Anywayssssssssssssssssssssssss. How have things been with you and Yubin? She canceled our coffee meet up for this weekend, so you have to update me until I see her again."

"We broke up. Well, she broke up with me." Mark said nonchalantly as he picked up the picture that had fallen.

"What!? Whoa! When? What happened? Why? Who was gonna to tell me? Were you guys gonna tell me?!" I was in shock. Yubin loved Mark. I assumed it was the same for Mark so I thought they'd last. 

"I don't know. It sorta just happened. It's no big deal."

"No big deal?! Dude! She loved you!"

"Love isn't for everyone. I'll be fine." He looked over at me and smiled. It was like it didn't faze him at all. Like it was just another day. He was acting perfectly normal. It kind of scared me, and it made me worry for Mark.

"I've got you bro. I'll be just peachy." he said still smiling.

[Ten's POV]

We had finally made it to Johnny's place. Before I could knock on the door Johnny had opened it with a grin his face.

"You made it, finally." He spoke as he kissed my cheek. "Oh! With food!" He grabbed the bags from my hands.

"How'd you know I was here?" I asked puzzled.

"Your location. You forgot we share one?" when he said that it hit me. We started sharing location just for both of our safety's, but mainly for mines. While Johnny was unloading the bags Yuta and WinWin finally caught up me and made their way inside Johnny's place.

"Johnny, this is WinWin. WinWin that's Johnny. Ten's boyfriend." Yuta introduced the two while poking my shoulder basically embarrassing me.

Johnny laughed and greeted WinWin.

"Thanks for agreeing to come here. I know it's a bit outta the blue, but I really appreciate it. From talking with Ten, I've learnt you're a pretty good hacker." WinWin shared a glare with me, and I looked away hoping he'd just look back at Johnny. "Don't get mad at Ten. I was the one to pry it outta him. But I was wondering if your hacking was good enough to get police reports."

"Police reports? I couldn't. I only hack for meaningless fun. It's like a secret hobby. Or a hidden talent that stays hidden." WinWin replied puzzled. "Isn't that breaking the law? What if I go to jail? Woah. I can't go to jail! I'm too young! Who will feed my goldfish?" WinWin ranted on for a bit until Yuta came up to him.

"Winnie. Calm down. I'll feed your fish for you." We all laugh including WinWin himself. "It'll be fine. It's just a one-time thing, right?" Johnny his head in agreement. "See. Just one time love, and he'll never ask again." Yuta smiled.

We all sat in silence for a minute. Well not complete silence. Johnny somehow sniffed out a cheeseburger and was stuffing his face. The sorta silent silence was broken when WinWin stood up and said, "I'll do it. For Ten. If I were in his shoes, I'd want my friend to do the same for me. Johnny, can I use your computer? I could probably get it in few hours." Johnny throws out a thumbs up as his cheeks were stuffed with food.

~~~

Yuta was watching WinWin decode a bunch of jumbles I wasn't even going to take a look at. I was cuddled up with Johnny on the couch watching a movie to kill time.

"Johnny." He grunted instead of giving me a vocal response. "What is your plan? I feel like a understand a bit of it but I'm not getting the full picture, you know?"

Johnny sat up and pulled my face to look at him.

"You trust me, right?" I nodded. "You know whatever I do is never going to hurt you, right?" I nodded again. "You know I love you, right?" I nodded once more smiling this time. "Good. Trust me. The more pieces you see and understand how I'm going to use them. The more you'll understand. I can't guarantee you'll see the full picture on your own. I can guarantee you that'll be worth the wait." 

"Hmmmmmmm. Convincing. I like it." We laugh. "Hopefully we'll make the right decisions."

"Don't worry. Of course, we will." He smiled and kissed me not moving his hand from my cheek and kissing my head lightly.
