Even through his numbness and his pain, Minho kept on getting close with Jisung nonetheless. They started hanging around each other a lot, getting random coffee at night, staying hours walking around the city and eating out in restaurants. Minho couldn't refuse anything to Jisung, and Jisung truly loved hanging out with the older.

"Are you going at Chan's saturday?" Jisung asked as he filled his mouth with the ramen, not caring at all about how he had food all over his face. Minho grimaced because of how messy Jisung was being.

"I guess" Minho answered, as he took a tissue and wiped Jisung's mouth. The younger giggled and pushed Minho's hand out of him, frowning jokingly at him.

"I'm a big boy" Jisung said, not wanting to be cared as a kid, as he pouted.

"You eat like a kid" Minho answered, looking endearingly at the boy in front of him.

"I don't" Jisung affirmed firmly but changed when Minho just rose an eyebrow at him menacingly, Jisung chuckled "Maybe I do"

"You eat like a squirrel too" Minho added, feeling his heart flutter at the offended expression on Jisung's face "You stuff the food in your cheeks"

"That's mean" Jisung pouted

"It's cute" Minho said and shrugged

Why did I say that

"Aww" Jisung cooed and striked and cute pose "You think I'm cute" He added in a high pitched voice, pointing at his lips in aegyo

"Nevermind" Minho said as he frowned at him "I take it back" He added, and Jisung laughed.

For the rest of the week, Minho contemplated going to Chan's small party. He really didn't want to be around them and bore them. He was also scared that other people would insist on him drinking, something he really shouldn't do regarding his medication and how heavy it is lately. He was conflicted.

But as days passed, everyday Jisung would push Minho to join them. He insisted, again and again and Minho ended up agreeing, feeling giddy when Jisung's expression turned with the prettiest smile at it.

At least I can be with him

And he did. The first thing he did as he arrived was sticking to Jisung. They stayed together through the whole night, the two talking lightly by the kitchen or on the couch. Minho didn't drink, and was happy that the younger never insisted for him to drink.

Minho ended up taking care of a tipsy Jisung who's energy rose up to the roof. He had to hold him tightly as Jisung was running everywhere, not that he could complain about that.

As he held the boy tightly, his arms around his waist, he felt himself blush. He loved the feeling of Jisung slim waist, and he seemed so strong, he actually had a hard time keeping him. 

"Oh my god Min" Jisung said, slurring slightly

"What?" Minho asked monotonously, as if his heart wasn't doing somersaults at the nickname

"Look" He said as he pointed at what was unfolding in front of him.

Minho gasped at the sight. Changbin was holding Felix in the kitchen, his hands all over the other's waist as their lips were moving against the other. They were kissing like there's no tomorrow, completly attached to the other. Minho moved from their sight and took Jisung with him, avoiding the situation where Jisung would interrupt them. The boy was giggling cutely, happy for his two friends.

"I'm so happy for them" Jisung exclaimed, truthfully happy

"Yeah" Minho let out slowly. He was happy, but felt a bit down knowing he wouldn't feel the same satisfaction, to kiss his crush.

Chan interrupted their conversation, as he pulled a boy in front of them, the two looking at the boy. Minho recognized him, but Jisung was still lost and in his own world.

"This is Jeongin, my boyfriend" Chan introduced them, happily looking at his lover.

"Hi!" Jeongin said, a cute smile on his face

Damn, why are they all so happy and in love

Jisung and Minho greeted the boy back, and they started talking lightly. What the two boys forgot, was their position. Minho still had his arms all over Jisung, he had forgotten to take it back, he was way too comfy. Jisung also didn't complain.

"Are you two dating?" Jeongin asked and Minho's heart skipped a bit.

"Ew, no" Minho said as he suddenly detached from Jisung, who fell to the floor on his ass, whining in the process.

"Hey, you asshole" Jisung cursed as he looked up at Minho, frowning.

Chan and Jeongin laughed wholeheartedly as Minho helped Jisung up, saying that he was sorry. They let the two bicker as they left, searching for their friends in the amount of people there.

"Aren't Seungmin and Hyunjin flirting in that corner?" Jisung asked, giggling again. He couldn't stop fanboying over his friends antics

"Gosh, you're so nosy" Minho said as he pulled Jisung to him again, not wanting him to interrupt the two.

"But all of our friends are getting it" Jisung said as he chuckled "We need to find you a boyfriend Min" He added, completely ruining Minho's mood.

Poor Jisung couldn't know how much of an impact his sentence had on his friend, but it truly devastated Minho. He let go of Jisung, not feeling comfortable holding him anymore.

Another stab in my heart I guess

"Yeah" He said, not above a whisper, and took his phone out, trying to distract himself as Jisung decided to run to Felix who just left the bathroom, wanting to gossip with him about what he had just done.

Minho just stayed there, alone. Trying to hold back his tears. Until he was tired of socializing, and decided to call it a night. He left without saying goodbye, he just told Chan he was leaving, and he got home, trying to take that stupid squirrel boy and his stupid waist out of his mind.
