Showering together, Minho talked about when his next appointment would be in a week. It was nice to hear that Minho was excited and almost happy! Making their way to the meeting point with their group before finally heading to their new dorm. Granted, it was more of a house, but it felt nostalgic calling it their dorm. Enjoying their breakfast, Jisung stepped up to help Chan, who seemed to be struggling with juggling the duties thrust upon him. 

Earning a blinding smile from the leader who continued to take calls or make calls, Jisung helped urge the group to get going. It was a short drive to their new home, finding their things ready for them. It was time to begin yet another chapter. By that night, Minho had cornered Jisung in one of their rooms, making him feel good. Jisung couldn't help but tell Minho how sexy he was when he took charge. Minho smiled fondly at him, enjoying their couple time. That was before their members came to invade their space. 

While no one knew what it would be like to enter this new chapter, it wasn't easy. Jisung could see the struggle that Minho was dealing with. If the members became too loud, on the off chance something broke, it took a lot not to have another panic attack. Minho was fighting every step of the way, with the assistance of Jisung and his therapy appointments. But, maybe in time, things could finally begin to look up.

It had been a month and a half of living in their new arrangement. During that time, they met their new manager, went to the memorial services for those lost, and adjusted to this new life. They were slowly working their way back into working again. There were no plans for comebacks as the industry was grieving from the losses sustained. It was a shock to the system. 

Jisung and Minho's relationship during this time continued to grow. The unfortunate downside was their manager finding out about them. However, where they thought it would be bad didn't. He seemed highly supportive of the couple, doing what he could on his end to make them comfortable and help them. Jisung felt relieved they had yet another person on their side.

At the airport with Minho and the manager, it was going to be the first time since the shooting that Jisung would see his parents. He was a nervous wreck, but who could blame him? There had been so much that had happened. He and Minho were finally a couple. Minho was still recovering, but for the most part, the elder was recovered. His shoulder made a full recovery with all the physical therapy and time off they had.

"Sungie, you okay?" Minho asked him, putting a gentle hand on his shoulder to help stop bouncing on the balls of his feet

Letting out a pitiful sound that lodged in his throat, "I guess. It's been a long time since I've seen my parents. There has been so much that has happened. What if they've changed? Or what if I've changed so much and they don't recognize me? Then there is us." leaving the last bit open-ended, hoping that his boyfriend could understand

Jisung noticed the smile Minho was giving him. Instantly smiling at how his eyes turned into crescent moons, helping to erase some of his discomfort. "If I could smother you in love and hugs right now, I would."

"I'd rather you two not." Hearing their manager mutter behind them. This statement had them laugh. Knowing he was only joking. He didn't want to deal with them outing themselves. Too much paperwork he'd say. 

"Anyways, it's not like I'd bend him over and take him here. We haven't gotten to that stage."

Hearing the manager groan, "Aish, Minho!"

Giggling, "All I'm trying to say is you are still their Jisung, and they will love you just the same. You can talk to them about what is on your mind, bugs."

"Thank you, Min. Love you." Jisung spoke softly in English, hoping no one heard them

"Will you two please stop!" the manager uttered, done with their shenanigans
