“Wow, you really had your whole tongue in his mouth”, Yeosang was laughing, while still having his phone in his hand and watching a video that went viral on TikTok. Okay, not any video, the video of Mingi and Yunho kissing at the press conference.

“Look someone made a cheesy edit of it”, he was pointing out and Mingi was walking up to him to just snatch the phone out of his hand. He was sitting on the engine hood of San’s old rusty BMW and the rest were just chatting and enjoying their time outside. The sun was still up, they were not outside to spray today but to check up on themselves. Empty beer cans and food container everywhere and Mingi was staring down on the phone in his hand. Yeosang just giving him a shit eating grin. On leg up and a beer can in the other hand, while just looking over to him.

Mingi could see and hear the video replaying on the screen and if he was honest he himself was shocked over the way it was looking. Of course he was in the situation and he was the one kissing, but seeing it from an outside perspective made him realize that they both went further as he had planned.

“ He was the one not getting enough”, he was hissing to himself, after closing the damn video and trying to get the picture of Yunho’s tongue in his mouth and his hand on his lower back out of his brain.

“You seemed to very much enjoy it”, Yeosang was saying and Mingi was giving him a evil look.

“I did it because I wanted my dad to taste some of his own medicine. No way I am walking out of there without doing something scandalous”, Mingi was saying, the smile on his lips was almost a little proud.

“Guess it was a full success, the video and pictures are everywhere ”, San was saying. 

“Yeah because they almost bend each other over”, Yeosang was laughing, “ slutty little Mingi” , he was grinning and Mingi was just jumping over to him and trying to take his whole face in his hand.

“You want something? Slutty Mingi can give it to you”, he was hissing, seeing how Yeosang was yelling out and flinching back, awkwardly laying on his back on the engine hood and both laughing for a moment. 

“Get away from me”, breathing heavy and calming down again. Mingi was leaning against the car besides him and Yeo was checking if he got beer on his shirt.

Slowly Mingi was taking out a cigarette from his jeans pocket.

“You smoke again?”, Woo was saying, his nose wrinkle up a bit as if he wanted to demonstrate that he hated the smell of smoke more than he hated the smell of paint. But Mingi was not listening, letting his lighter flame up and getting the first drag into his lung.

“Can you blame him, he needs to marry a stranger”, Yeo was saying rather serious for some reason, maybe he was apologizing for making so much fun about it - but Mingi knew himself that all of his friends were trying to keep him over water. Of course they made jokes about it, but that was the only thing Mingi needed in order to survive this.

He couldn’t change it.

The big knews were out in the open and he needed to play this game now.

“So how is it going?”, San was asking, 

“You mean in general?”, Mingi was clarifying, his voice darker as he let out the smoke while talking. His hand grabbing one of the beer cans and drinking a long sip from it. Thinking about what to answer, as he saw San nodding to his question.

“Nothing changed, I am trying to avoid him most of the time”, he confessed, thinking about the fact that his dad tried to force them to talk after the press conference but Mingi just sneaked out of there. He had no interest in learning more about Yunho or talking to him.

“When is the wedding?”, “I don’t know for sure, but I guess in two or three month. My dad already said it’s going to be a Art Deco wedding”, Mingi was making a grimasse thinking about all of the extravagant pictures and the color theme of gold and white. 

For fuck sakes he hated gold, make it black or silver or- cancel the fucking wedding.

“Guess I need to buy a golden dress”, Woo was teasing but Mingi was switching looks between all of them. Dragging on his cigarette and letting the smoke escape a second after.

“You said you will help me get out of this”, he was reminding them of it and everyone was nodding slowly but also not really looking confident. Yeah right, nobody had an idea how exactly they wanted to do that.

“What if that Yunho guy has an scandal as well and you can’t marry him because of that?”, Woo was saying rather casually and everyone was looking at him.

“That’s actually not that bad…”, “Yeah, but we can’t make something up, like your dad is not stupid. I can imagine that he fact checked him big time after the last scandal”, Yeosang was saying and Mingi knew that he was right.

“I saw the portfolio, he’s as clean as San’s grandma”, “Why do you bring my grandma into this?”, he was saying offended. Mingi was laughing a little.

“You have an portfolio over that guy? That’s like playing a dating simulator in real life”, Woo was adding and Mingi was biting down his lip, the nicotine and the thoughts running through his brain causing him a headage. Annoyed he was stubbing it out on the ground.

“What if you make it public that it’s a fake wedding?”, “And lose all financial support? And also being canceled online for faking something like this?”, Mingi was saying and shaking his head.

“that’s not it. There is close to nothing I can do”, he was confessing to himself.

“We still have a little time, just keep your enemies close to you”, Yeosang was deciding.
