Another roller coaster of a chapter... Enjoy!
Minho's parents sensed that Jisung was uncomfortable, so they hurried along before finally heading home. Picking up ingredients for dinner, the parents shooed the boys upstairs once home. Jisung curled up into Minho's bed, taking comfort in the smell that consumed him. It was everything Minho.
Watching Minho take his time to crawl into the bed, that is after locking the door. "Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?"
Shaking his head, "No, I don't think so..." scooting back to let the elder on the bed.
Nuzzling his neck, lying beside him. Gently kissing his neck, "Can I-?"
"What baby?"
"Touch you? I want to feel you close."
Nodding, letting the afternoon go by absorbed into themselves. By dinner, they joined Minho's parents. Taking a walk in the quiet streets. Stopping at a patch of flowers, Jisung wanted to stop and look at how beautiful they were.
"Sungie?"
Rotating to face the elder, "Yeah, Min?"
"Can I ask you something?" Bobbing his head, adjusting his stance. "Will you be my boyfriend?" Minho whispered so only they could hear it.
Jisung's heart smile came out on display, "Yes!"
Minho showed Jisung some special spots, before returning. They had talked to Chan, finding they needed to come back by the end of the week. They were making the most of the few days left before they would have to return to the dorms. Back to the crazy life. Still trying to figure out what they would find themselves in, needing this time to themselves. It was time to decompress before the unknowns rolled out in front of them.
They heard they would have the house to themselves for at least a day as Minho's aunt needed help. They assured his parents they would be fine. Minho planned a special day with Jisung, one he didn't know about. Jisung didn't want to go out, which didn't bother Minho at all. That was actually to his benefit. Making the excuse of wanting to get him something, he left to grab some cash before going to his first stop.
It took longer than expected, so he bought some clothes, cheesecake, and coffee for the two of them. Making that the excuse, which seemed to appease the house. That is except for his mother who asked for some help in the garden after dinner the night before they planned to leave. Helping to weed out the small garden that she had, along with the flower beds. He was surprised, to say the least when he heard her ask her question.
"What are you planning while we're out?"
Looking over to her shocked, "Hmm?"
Smiling softly at her son, "You father and Ji, they may have bought your story. You should know I can see through your lies. You used one of your anime lines on us, that is a giveaway in itself. Plus, the coffee shop is never busy on Tuesdays."
Chuckling, hand it to his mother for being a human lie detector. "I want to do something special with Sungie, so I wanted to get stuff." He flushed at his words, muttering them softly
Side-glancing at his mother, surprised that she didn't look disgusted. Still looking at him with so much love, "You love and care for him, don't you?"
"You have no idea, mom."
"I'm proud of you Minho. I've never seen you so happy, you had boyfriends in the past and I know they hurt you. I know Ji won't, I see how much he loves and cares for you too. I'm glad you will be safe. If you ever need anything, you can always come to me. I'll get it for you, you never have to worry. I'm safe."
"I know." Moving to stand to offer her a hug, even though she'd said that she was proud before. It hit differently this time.
"I love you, son. You are growing into a wonderful young man."
"Thanks, Mom. Love you too."
Patting his head, pulling back. "Go get some rest, we're leaving after breakfast."
"Okay."
Receiving a kiss on the cheek he left, ready to snuggle Jisung.
Jisung smiled seeing his boyfriend walk in the room, watching him change quickly. Chuckling when he came to curl up to him, he became the needy boy. "Tomorrow I can take off this damn sling and start moving my arm again!" Minho muttered into the boy's chest
"But remember you don't need to overdo it," Jisung spoke back, kissing his head
Smiling kissing his chest, "I won't bugs. Don't worry."
Huffing, knowing that is something Minho would say right before he overdid it. "I do worry. If your parents and I hadn't been here, who knows what you would have tried."
"But I did have you. This has been terrifying, there have been times I felt I could understand your anxiety. That even going out to grab the mail has been crippling, but I still did it because I know that I have to."
"Min." Jisung sat up, making the other sit up with him. Shaking his head, "No, we don't have to do anything you don't feel comfortable with. You were shot by fucking lunatics; you have taken it so much better than I have."
Scuffing, "How have I? I've barely faced the fact that I've been shot, except for the fact I've been thrown into this damn sling! When we go back is when we'll have to face everything, don't tell me how I've taken it." Minho spoke back with more force than intended
"I'm sorry you haven't wanted to talk about it since therapy! Don't take it out on me, all I've tried to do is help take care of you and love you!"
"You're the one that brought this up!"
Jisung felt tears spring to his eyes, "All I wanted to do was make sure you weren't going to overdo it when the sling came off tomorrow. It's all because I care for you." Getting off the bed, moving to the door
"Where are you going?" Minho asked surprised
Leaving you on a cliffhanger! Mwhaha... Anyway hope you enjoyed it and are having a great New years. Did you set any resolutions? I don't try... Just small goals that lead to bigger ones :) Right, I'm rambling. Until next time, stay safe with love ~DQ <3
