Minho was slowly getting his colors and energy back.

He started getting back at university, even if it was hard at first. He really didn't want to go after disappearing for 2 weeks, he was scared of every kind of reactions could come out of his teachers, of his classmates and his friends. But none of them cared. The teachers had been informed of an health issue, and his classmates didn't give a damn about it.

His friends did care, but they had been prepared by Jisung and Chan, who asked them to not say anything and keep him distracted and happy, and they all did it. Minho knew they were wondering what happened, and he knew that Jisung might have told them, but he didn't care, he loved them and trusted them. He was glad they didn't try to make him talk about it in front of them all, he would have cried right in front of them and he didn't want that.

Also, Hyunjin was always around him in class, making sure the boy was writing his notes or dancing. He helped him with the classes he missed, helping him follow the rythm.

Dance classes were still hard. His thighs were hurting and he couldn't do a lot of efforts to not reopen the wounds, but he still followed with less energy, trying to get back on track and not have much choreos late. Minho always got the moves quicker anyway, so it won't be a problem when he'll heal fully.

He started eating at the cafeteria with the whole friend group again, started talking loudly again, chuckling at the others dumb jokes. He was getting back, slowly but surely.

He still had some downs, his mood lowering dangerously, but he never wanted to disappoint Jisung again. He started opening up to the boy fully, and telling him everytime he felt his mind eating him alive, even if it was completely random.


Once, Minho was getting back from college, and started feeling uneasy. He didn't hesitated and picked up his phone, calling Jisung.

'Hey' Jisung answered

'Hi' Minho responded, his voice low

'Is there something wrong?' Jisung asked, he knew from the tone of his voice that he wasn't doing well

'I just felt a bit bad, wanted to call you'

'Okay, let's go on a date when I get out of class' Jisung said immediately and Minho could hear the smile on his lips

'Okay' He said, starting to think about how excited he was for his date

'See you baby'


Or, there was a time when Minho was sitting at the cafeteria with the others, and he started stressing. He tapped Jisung's leg, trying to get his attention.

"I'm feeling down" He whispered when Jisung turned to him

"Okay, wanna eat something good later?" Jisung asked with a smile as he held Minho's hand

"Mmh"

"What restaurant do you wanna go?"

"I don't know" Minho shrugged, he didn't have special cravings

"Search for one you want to go" Jisung said, and Minho picked up his phone and searched for nice restaurants, completely distracted from his thoughts.


Jisung kept on distracting Minho everytime he needed it, anywhere. Even when they were lying in Minho's bed lazily.

"I'm feeling bad" Minho blurted out, hiding in his pillow

"Baby, let's cook something together, we haven't done it in so long" Jisung said excitedly as he sat up, trying to pull Minho by the arm

"Okay" Minho said, a small grin growing on his face.


Jisung was his life saver.

They were always the two of them, always sticking to each other, always in their own little world, and Minho couldn't dream for any better.

It did actually raise some questions in their friend group.

"Minho and Jisung are holding hands under the table" Hyunjin called them out at the cafeteria, the whole table looking at the two boys.

Jisung blushed quickly, and Minho shrugged, not minding it one second.

"So what?" Minho asked as he looked at Hyunjin. Jisung chuckled as he looked at Minho, confused on what Minho was going to say.

"That's sus" Seungmin said, joining his boyfriend in the teasing after receiving a glare from Minho.

"Why would it be sus? Boyfriends hold each other's hands" Minho said and the whole table gasped.

They all knew something was on between the two, and the few hickeys they had spotted a few times on Jisung's chest were giving them enough hints, but it felt funny to hear it like that from Minho's mouth. They also felt satisfied that the boys were officially dating.

Jisung chuckled as he looked at Minho, he really was weird.

"Can't believe you didn't tell me anything" Changbin whined, along with Felix

"I knew it!" Hyunjin yelled as he stood up

Chan didn't say anything, he just stared at Minho with a proud smile on his face, and winked at him when he crossed Minho's glance.

Minho smiled back, before continuing eating his food with one hand, the other grabbing his lover's hand.
