You had me at hello - minsung

Chapter 18

"Look! That's the guy from the video!!"

"Oh my god yes! I have to get a picture of this."

Minho walked silently into the corridors, whispers and giggles filling his ears left and right. He was sick of people asking what he did and if he did actually fuck his boyfriend. Was jisung even his boyfriend?

Minho sighed loudly, rushing into class. Everyone else was talking, but as soon as they saw Minho walk in, they started to whisper and laugh at him.

And unfortunately, there was nothing Minho could do about that.

Jisung got up from his seat and walked over to Minho, pushing through the rest of the people to do so.

"Hey, watch where you're going!"

"Oh shut up, " Jisung shouted, rolling his eyes.

Minho sat down in his seat, Jisung doing the same. He wanted to ask if he was okay, but he didn't know if Minho was in the mood.

Either way, he still asked.

"You okay, my love?" Jisung whispered, looking at Minho.

Minho didn't reply for a while, but eventually gave a small mumble of approval.

Minho wished he could say the truth and let everything out. With this piled on top of the fact that his dad was still trying to find him was just all too much for him. He just didn't know what to do. But would he ever know what to do? That's the one thing that kept Minho's brain occupied.

"You sure?" Jisung added. No response was heard. Jisung didn't want to disturb Minho, but when no one was looking, or at least when Jisung thought no one was looking, he gently kissed him on his cheek.

Minho could be seen visably growing redder, but he remained silent.

Jisung laughed to himself quietly.
----------------------------------
Once the bell rang for lunch, Minho and Jisung walked towards the cafeteria, and sat down at that usual spots at the table, where the rest of the group was.

As they sat down, for a moment there was silence. It was obvious that everyone had seen the video of the two, and they didn't know whether to ask about it or not.

After a while, Bangchan spoke up.

"Hey... Are you two alright?"

Minho looked up at him, before replying.

"Look, if this is about the video, leave it. I've had enough of these random shits giggling and whispering behind my back so for now I would like some peace."

Everyone else stayed silent, but Bangchan was persistent to get something out of Minho.

"Minho, look, I get it. I know it feels hard for you to get your feelings out, but we're your friends, and you should know that you can trust us. So when you're comfortable enough, please could you tell us what happened?"

Changbin gave a nod of approval, and so did the rest. They all wanted to know the truth. Jisung even wanted to see what Minho would say, even if he was at the scene.

Minho grew silent again. Should he say the truth? But after all, he would have to in the end. He knew how chan was. So eventually, he let everything roll off the tip of his tongue. Loosen up the clog in his throat that wasn't budging before.

Everyone was shocked after hearing what Minho had said. No one could say a word, they were speechless.

"Minho.. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, " Hyunjin said from across the table. The reply was rather reluctant, but Minho appreciated it all the same. At least now everything was out. At least he hoped it was everything.
