「 Let's play dress up? 」|| Minsung

34 - Lets meet

Happy 5k✨ i wasn't gonna post 2dy but had to 🤷‍♀️

Jisung placed the order on their table and turned towards the older only to be rudely ignored.

" Do you have any modelling shoots hyunjin? " Minho questioned while ignoring the boy standing near their table.
" No.. ? " He replied surprised by the sudden question.

" Good. There is this gala that we- " Minho turned towards the younger boy with a raised eyebrow to signal him to leave. Jisung understood the gaze and left the table while biting his lower lips.

Seungmin saw the exchange and quickly grabbed a post it along with a pen shoving it in Jisung's hand as soon as he reached the counter.
" What..? " He questioned in confusion.

" Ask him to meet somewhere. " Seungmin gestured towards the post it in encouragement.

He thought for a moment before writing something on the post it and folding it neatly. He grabbed the extra holder of tissues and walked towards their table again.

He discretely replaced the already placed tissue holder with a new one in his hand and kept his post it near Minho's coffee cup, easily visible if Minho didn't ignore the male with his life.
He hoped Minho would see the note and agree to meet him at this place.

After few minutes, both finished their drink and stood up to leave. The note slipped from the table and fell on the floor grabbing both of their attention. Minho crouched and held the note. He opened it and read what was written inside.

' I'm sorry I want to explain everything to you. Let's meet at the place of our first date? '

He stood up and made eye contact with the boy standing at the counter.

He crumbled the paper in his hand and walked towards the dustbin to throw the paper, all while maintaining eye contact with Jisung who bit his lips to stop them from trembling and broke eye contact.

He left the cafe and hyunjin quickly scrambled to his feets to follow his best friend out of the cafe.

" I'll meet you later minnie. " Hyunjin said and placed a small peck on his boyfriend's cheek and walked outside.

" I'm sorry. " Seungmin whispered while placing an arm around Jisung's shoulder who broke out into ugly sobs while hiding his face in Seungmin's shoulder.

Later that day

" Sung, are you done? " Seungmin questioned the boy who had been camping in the kitchen for the whole day.

He shook his head without glancing up from the cupcakes he was decorating. Seungmin sighed and walked inside.

" C'mon sung, the café's closed already. Everyone left, let's go home. "

" I'm almost done you can go ahead. " He muttered as he kept icing the cupcakes.

" Don't you have somewhere to be? " He stilled and bit his lips as he remembered that he asked the older boy to meet him today.

" He won't come. " He whispered and continued.

" And what if he did? "

" He won't. " He argued but deep inside he hoped seungmin was telling the truth.

" Hey, you asked him to meet you today and if he does decide to show up, he'll think you bailed on him and it'll hurt him more than your lie. "

" What if he doesn't? " He asked as he made eye contact with his best friend. His lower lip trembled as his eyes started getting blurry.

" Then you can always come back home and we'll watch Titanic so that you can cry without anyone asking you questions. " He suggested with a smile causing Jisung to chuckle a little.

" C'mere. " He asked while opening his arms.

" Eww.. Social distancing please. " Seungmin exclaimed while inching away from his best friend who kept walking closer to pull him into a hug.

" Noooo!! " He said and broke out into a sprint with Jisung hot on his tail. They ran around the café like kids before eventually Jisung got his hug.

" Thank you. " Jisung whispered while tightening his grip on seungmin's back.

" Thank me when you have talked with Minho. " He nodded and pulled away. " Go get em tiger. "

" Eww.. That was so cringe! " Jisung pulled a disgusted expression before they both laughed out loud at seungmin's choice of words.

" Now shoo! I'll close the café and reach your home with our other friends. " Jisung nodded and quickly left after changing out of his café uniform.

He had to take a bus to reach the outskirts and he hoped he wasn't too late for the last bus of the day.

Luckily as soon as he walked to the bus stop, the bus came and halted in front of him. The whole bus ride was filled with him anxiously jerking his legs and fiddling with his fingers.
He checked the time on his watch.

7.34 pm

Which meant he had time to reach the oasis on time as it took approximately 20 minutes to reach by bus.

As soon as he saw his stop, he walked off the bus and walked towards the familiar forest.

At night it looked more scary but as he walked further inside he could see the river reflecting the moonlight and lightening the surrounding.

He thought maybe this place was a bad idea to come at night but now he couldn't back down. Anxiously gulping he walked till he could see a familiar swing.

It brought good memories to him that he forgot his nerves for a moment and let himself breathe under the dark sky. He walked forward and took a seat on the swing. Now the only thing left was to wait.

Wait for Minho to come. He hated how his brain shouted the opposite things and he dreaded waiting here in the once majestic forest for hours at night.

He checked his watch to see 8.01 pm reflected on it. Only one minute late, no problem.

8.27 pm

27 minutes late, maybe Minho was stuck in traffic?

8.48 pm

" Where is he? " Jisung muttered while rubbing his hands together. He contemplated going back home and watching the promised Titanic movie with his friends but decided against it.

What if Minho came and didn't find Jisung here?

" He'll think you bailed on him and it'll hurt him more than your lie. "

Seungmin's voice echoed in his brain and he decided to wait, as long as he can while his heart drummed in his ears.

9.37 pm

Jisung huffed as his legs kept on shaking due to the coldness. The breeze coming through the forest wasn't helping him stay warm either.

He was scared because the night was getting more dark and he was sure he won't be able to take bus back home now.
Whenever he heard a leaf crunch or the wind blowing through the trees along with animals hooting or shrieking, he would jump in fear.

At first whenever he felt something moving he thought it was Minho but a whole hour of him sitting in the same position, he was starting to loose hope.

He just wanted to go back home and cuddle in his warm blanket. He wished he would have selected someplace closer to his house where he won't feel like an outsider, sitting on a swing in the middle of nowhere.

He hiccuped as a familiar feeling bloomed in his stomach and tears started forming in his eyes. He sniffled and tried not to break out into sobs but it was getting very hard.

" How long are you gonna stay here? "
