minho was done with practicing, and he was ready to go home. jisung was still sleeping on the couch. walking up to him, minho put a hand on his shoulder and shook him a little.

"jisung-ah, it's time to wake up."
minho whispered.

jisung let out a whine and slowly opened his eyes.
their faces were so close, and they got lost in each other's eyes.

jisung then got out of his trance and got up from the couch quickly.
"uhm, what time is it?"
he asked.

minho got out of his trance too and quickly looked at his phone.
"uhm, 11:43pm."

"aghhh, I will leave then."
jisung yawned, taking his things.

"do you need a ride? It's really late."
minho asked.

"no, I live near."

"aren't you hungry? you haven't eaten all day."

"nah, I'm good, goodbye."
jisung said and quickly exited the room.

minho quickly packed his things and ran after him.
"wait, jisung!"

jisung heard him and turned around
"I told you to call me Han, didn't I?"

minho finally caught up to him.
"sorry, I have to get used to it."

"what do you want?"
jisung crossed his arms.

"uhm...do you want to walk together for a while..?"

"what the fuck-?"

"I know you said that we can't be friends, and I agree, but we can at least tolerate each other, right?"
minho quickly said.

"probably."
jisung shrugged.

"so, do you want to walk with me a little? I can walk you to your house."
minho suggested.

jisung just sighed, before nodding and starting to walk again.
minho quickly caught up to him.

"so....how are you doing?"
minho asked, trying to break the ice.

"are you trying to make a small talk?"
jisung lifted his eyebrows.

"maybe?"

jisung just sighed and took out a cigarette box from his bag, lighting one cigarette up.
"been better, how about you?"

"it's manageable. do you know smoking is bad?"
minho pointed out.

"I've heard."
han said sarcastically.

"why are you smoking then? you always hated smoking."

"that's not your business. stop asking me personal questions, I will not answer."

minho didn't really know what to ask anymore, so he just kept quiet, and walked by jisung's side.
they soon arrived to the apartment han was living.

"well, goodbye I guess."
han said without looking at minho

"yeah, sleep well."
minho gave him a small smile.

jisung unlocked the door and went inside, while Minho stood in front of the apartment, making sure Han actually went inside safely.
after the door closed, started walking to his house.

it actually wasn't that far away, maybe twenty minutes. now when he thought about it, minho was actually pretty surprised he didn't run into jisung earlier.

but at the other hand, he didn't know when exactly jisung moved to his apartment.
he could be living here for just few months.

when minho opened the door of his apartment, he was immediately welcomed by his three cats.
he smiled at the sight.

"hello my babies."
he said sweetly.

making his way into the kitchen, minho gave his cats food, before he started making some food for himself as well.
he didn't eat much today, and his stomach was beating him up for it.

it was really late, and he didn't want to cook anything fancy, so he settled for some cup noodles.
today it will do.

after finishing eating his food in silence, minho went to brush his teeth, before tiredly throwing himself on his bed.

he yawned, before reaching into his pocket and taking out his phone. he played the demo han had send him before. he couldn't get enough of hans voice, and he fell asleep, smiling to himself as he listened the most beautiful voice of the person he cared about so much.
