My home (NoMin)

2

"Wow." Jisung says after walking into Jeno's new house.
"What? I Can hear the sarcasm." Jisung shakes his head.
"It's been years now, can't we have the old you back? We miss you, I miss you." Jeno shakes his head and walks to the kitchen.
"Can't you ever just support me? I didn't invite you here to judge my house." Jisung shakes his head and hugs his waist.
"I'm so sorry. I just love you so much and wish you could free yourself from that prison." Jeno allows his tears to fall as he is being held.
"I'm trying, I'm really trying. Can I show you something?" He asks in a whisper. Jisung nods and pulls away, only to take his hand.

Jeno pulls him down a hallway and hesitates at a door. When he opens it Jisung gasps.
"It's beautiful." He says with a big smile.
"Really? It's not too much?" Jisung shakes his head and hugs him while squealing.
"It's perfect, It's you." Jeno smiles, showing his crescent eyes that always give away his true happiness.
"This is a big step. I'm so happy for you." Jisung says proudly.

They go back out to the living room and sit down.
"So have you met any neighbors yet?" He sighs.
"A couple. The one across the street brought me food." Jisung smiles.
"That's Nice. Any potential dates on your street." Jeno shakes his head no.
"The one attractive guy on this street has a boyfriend. They were being all cute and cuddly outside." Jisung chuckles.
"You sound jealous." He looks down with a pout.
"I'm not jealous, I barely know him and to be honest, I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can show myself to anyone, I'm so scared." Jisung hums.

"You can take that at your own pace. Maybe just be friends with him and see if he would make a suitable boyfriend." Jeno slaps Jisung's shoulder.
"I literally just heard him tell his boyfriend "I love you" I would never even try to get between that and you just got done saying to take it at my own pace. Maybe my own pace is never." Jisung purses his lips.
"Don't you dare give me that pity look again. I just mean, if it happens? I'll go with it but if it doesn't then I'll go with that too." Jisung nods and hugs him again.
"Ugh, my big brother is growing up." Jeno chuckles and turns on the tv to allow Jisung to pick the movie. They usually get together once a week to watch a movie and just hang out. They've done this since they were kids.

When it's time for him to leave he pauses in the doorway and pulls Jeno into a hug and whispers in his ear.
"I'm proud of you, you've come a long way." He backs away and Jeno grabs his face and pulls him down to kiss the top of his head. Jisung giggles.
"I love you." He giggles again.
"Love you too. Thanks for dinner." Jeno nods and watches him leave. He will always be protective of him.

When he looks up from watching his car he sees Jaemin fling open his front door and run toward the curb where his boyfriend is getting out of his car. He's sobbing uncontrollably and Jaemin quickly holds him in his arms. Jeno feels bad for him because whatever he's going through must be horrible but at least he has a good person to fall into.

"We broke up." Haechan whispers in his ear. Jaemin just holds him until he's able to walk again.
"Hey, baby let's go sit down and talk about this." Jaemin coo's.
"He said he still loves me but he's bored and wants to explore other opportunities. He wants to see if there is something more, something better out there." Jaemin shakes his head.
"He said that? What a prick." Haechan shakes his head and leans back onto the couch.
"Maybe he's right? Maybe I've been clinging onto him for too long because it was comfortable. He was always there and it was nice to have that stability." Jaemin rubs his head and plays with the hair on the back of his neck.
"There is nothing wrong with feeling comfortable with your person. If they don't give you a sense of home then they aren't right for you. But, that being said, it is possible to outgrow your love for a person and if that happens you have to pick yourself up and move on.
I'm sure there is someone out there waiting for you too." The doorbell rings and makes Jaemin smile mischievously.

"Ahh. There it is. Your next love, ringing my doorbell." Haechan scoffs and pushes him away.
Jaemin stands and pulls him along.
"I wasn't expecting anyone so maybe this is fate, so just in case you should come too." Haechan tries to stop as the bell rings again.
"I look terrible though." He pouts.
"So what? If it is your fate then it wouldn't matter would it?" Haechan goes along with him even though he knows he's full of shit.
When the door opens his mouth drops. What are the chances that the most beautiful person in the world would be at the door in this moment. He quickly wipes at his puffy eyes and starts planning Jaemin's murder.

"Oh, hello? I'm here to meet my friend? Lee Jeno? I must have the wrong address?" Jaemin smiles and points across the street.
"He's just over there, you were only off by one number." He says sweetly. The beautiful one smiles so brightly that Haechan's heart feels warmth again.
"Thank you, im Renjun, I hope he hasn't scared you off yet?" He says with a chuckle. Jaemin shakes his head with a smirk.
"It actually takes a lot to scare me off." Renjun continues to light up the sun as he nods.
"That's good, he's a work in progress." He backs up a step and touches Haechan's arm, surprising him.
"Hey, whatever it is? You will get through it. And if need be, I will volunteer for a little ass kicking, it's my specialty." Haechan's smile stretches across his face.
"Thank you." That's all he is able to say at the moment for many reasons but it will do. Renjun squeezes his arm once then looks at Jaemin who is studying their interaction.
"It was nice meeting you?" He slaps his leg.
"Oh, im so sorry. Im Jaemin, i live here and this here is Haechanie, my best friend. It was so nice to meet you too and I hope we will get to see more of each other?" He nods and waves at both as he walks toward the street.

"Ok, is it really possible to get over someone that quickly and fall in love?" Haechan asks a giggling Jaemin.
"No, which is why we will be finding you someone else to date for the time being." Haechan frowns.
"But I like him." He says with a cute pout.
"Ok, but being this is your first break up you have to go through the steps properly to get to your end goal." He says pointing in the direction of Renjun tightly hugging Jeno's neck, making them both frown.
"My boy gets around." Haechan furrows his brows.
"He was just hugging on this other guy when I was out here waiting on you and now Renjun? Maybe he's a player." He shivers at the thought.

Haechan pouts.
"First you mourn. Cry your eyes out, eat to your hearts content.
Then you will go on a few dates, maybe date someone a few times but this can never be your forever. Almost always, these end badly as they are what is known as the rebound relationship.
Then you are free to find the one you will hopefully spend the rest of your life with, if that's what you want." He falls back into Jaemin's arms as they sit on the couch preparing to watch sad movies.
