Would You Like to Know a Secret?

Part 9

  "Oh, Jaemin. Hello," Jeno smiled.

  "Hey."

  "It's nice having a break after the concert, huh?"

  "Yeah, I'm enjoying it. I also enjoyed practicing with you and Donghyuck. It was fun."

  "Me too. I kind of miss it."

  "We still have practice soon."

  "It's different. It's not the three of us."

  "We are a good trio, huh?" Jaemin said, leaning against the wall. His eyes carefully scanned Jeno from head to toe.

  "Yeah, we are," he pushed out. He was getting nervous under the boy's gaze. When they made eye contact, he felt like Jaemin could read him.

  "So, where's Donghyuck?"

  "He's getting stuff from his locker."

  "Do you like him?"

  Jeno tensed up and looked at him in confusion. "Do I like Donghyuck?"

  Jaemin pushed himself off the wall and stood up properly. "You kissed him. I assumed you had something with him."

  "When?"

  "I saw you guys kissing before we had our practice one day. I didn't want to mention it then."

  "No, it's not like that. I mean, yes, but he likes you. No, I like you. Wait, fuck, fuck, fuck."

  Jaemin's eyes widened. So he was right. "It's okay. Don't get nervous. I assumed so since you both have a J with a heart in your profiles. Either it was my initial, or you both really love you."

  "Fuck, we should've changed it when you followed us."

  Jaemin chuckled. "Don't worry."

  Jeno looked at him, confused. Jaemin was way too calm after finding out two guys had a crush on him. Why? How?

  "Why do you look so puzzled?"

  "You're calm."

  "I think I'm always calm."

  "So we are going to pretend this never happened?"

  "No, I want you to DM me both of your numbers."

  "Oh, yeah. Sure."

  "Then, talk to you later. Hopefully, we can get really close," he said with a wink. Then he walked away.

  "I have to be dreaming," he said under his breath.

  "Jeno?"

  The older boy turned around to see Donghyuck with the cutest smile he's ever seen. "Yes?"

  "Take me home."

  "I want to take you to mine."

  "Should've asked my parents in advance."

  "Right." Jeno threw his arm over Donghyuck's shoulder, and they walked together into the parking lot. They bid their goodbyes before separating to enter the cars that would bring them home.
