And To Love In Return... (BOOK 2)

Figuring It Out

Minho's POV:

"Listen, Yu. We all heard you and Mingi, you don't need to deny it anymore."

He would not shut up about it for the last hour of the car ride. I was completely baffled by how complicated Mingi and Yunho have chosen to make their situation. Now he's acting as if he's been given an ultimatum between Mingi and Tzuyu.

"Minho, I swear we're not like that."

Him pacing around our dorm room really told me otherwise. I just laid on my bed, half paying attention to what he's been repeating for hours.

Minho
He's doing it again

Seonghwa
So is Mingi

Minho
I can't imagine who's worse

Seonghwa
It is absolutely Mingi

Minho
Yunho hasn't shut up about it

Like take Tzuyu on a damn date tonight since you just saw Mingi and see if it really changed anything

Seonghwa
...

Did you tell him to do that yet?

Minho
I guess I probably should

"Take Tzuyu on a date tonight." I suggested. "You know how much you like her, you say you want to be with her. But you were sucking face with your best friend last night and agreed that he's better than her. Take her on a date, see if your feelings have changed."

Yunho groaned dramatically and flopped himself face down on his bed.

"This is so annoying. I don't understand any of this."

"You and Mingi have never been too bright on the subject." I sighed, scrolling through my phone.

"What's that supposed to mean?" He pouted, still laying down on the bed.

"God forbid you like a guy, it won't kill you."

"Minho, we're not gay. That's why this is so confusing."

"Bi?"

"Not that either." He whined, frustrated that the correct term wasn't coming to him.

"Heteroflexible. That's what you both are. Mystery solved." I swear, I have to do all the work for everyone. Lee Know always has the answers it seems.

"The fuck is that?"

"You and Mingi."

"Yeah, could you elaborate? Thanks."

"In simple terms, you're both straight, but you've made an exception for each other."

"Oh." Yunho sat up, looking as if all his questions had been answered. Idiots. I'm surrounded by idiots every day. "Yeah, that makes sense."

"I also think that's San's case, but he's a blockhead just like the rest of you." I sighed. Yunho stifled a laugh, trying to contain himself. "Wooyoung rewrote his brain chemistry and he's never looking back. That guy was always straight."

"I'm only laughing because you're wrong."

"Give me a break." I scoffed.

"Remember when he was blonde?" I smacked my hand over my mouth, in disbelief that someone proved me wrong, but that I also forgot a pivotal moment in San's life. "Yeah see, you remember." Yunho smiled, scrolling through his phone. "Fuck, he deleted everything from back then."

"It's okay, I remember." It all came to me like an exploding missile. We were so young, I never thought anything of it at the time.

"He should go back blonde."

"You know he'd never."

"What if we dyed our hair?"

"I'd have to be a corpse for someone to touch my hair." I'm perfectly fine with how I look. No need to get crazy with colors. We already have a couple of those in our group. One day Hyunjin is blue, the next Wooyoung is red, Seonghwa goes pink, Mingi turns into a volcano! Next thing you know, Yeosang might be green. It never ends.

"What if Han wanted you to?"

I sighed and rolled my eyes. "Well that would be very different."

Yunho started to laugh. "You're so tough until it comes to him, it's so funny."

"Well he's my boyfriend, I wanna make him happy. That's not a difficult concept to grasp."

"Oh shut up." He threw his pillow at my face, but I kicked it mid air before it could land.

"So when's that date of yours?" I smirked, changing the subject.

"30 minutes."

"Make sure you look pretty." I smiled.

Yunho got himself together, looking presentable. This date will be a lot more significant to him than she knows. If I'm being honest, I can't really figure out the outcome. The smarter they are, the harder it is to predict.

"I'm leaving now." He said, checking his appearance in the mirror. "Gotta go get flowers."

"Gross."

He turned back around and looked as though he was shocked I had the audacity to speak. "You don't know the first thing about women so I'm not really sure why you're talking."

Good point, he got me again. Damn it.

I wished him luck once he left the dorm, leaving me to myself. Finally peace and quiet.

I'm absolutely exhausted from last night so it's necessary for me to tell everyone I will be taking a nap.

Mayfly

Minho
I don't want a single soul texting me for the next three hours. I will be putting my phone on Do Not Disturb to take a nap. If you need me, call the police

Jeongin

Minho

Minho

Wooyoung

And with that, I put my phone to the side and allowed myself to relax.
