ＮＥＶＥＲ ＡＧＡＩＮ

44

jisung and Minho were on their way to Minhos house.

even tho they didn't live with each other anymore, jisung liked to come over to see his sons.
Minhos cats.
he's a proud mom.
and minho promised that he will make him dinner.
he's a husband material.

they were peacefully waking to Minhos house, holding hands and talking about their day.

they were smiling and laughing on the way there.
no one would say they went trough trauma together just two months ago.

when they finally arrived at Minhos house, minho unlocked the door and they were instantly welcomed by three little hungry cat boys.

"hi my babies, are you hungry? I'm sure you are. come, mommy will give you some delicious food."
Han said and cutely jumped to the kitchen.

all Minho could do was smile and let the butterflies destroy his stomach.

he loved how Han treated his cats.
even bigger reason to fight for him and their relationship.

"I will make the dinner, okay? you can play with the cats in the meantime."
minho said and went to the kitchen.

"Can I help you?" Han asked with his pouty lips.

minho sighed.
he knows damn well I can't resist this overly cute dumb face.

"sure, but be careful. you know what happened when I let you in charge of the food once, right?"

Han awkwardly chuckled.
"I don't know what you're talking about."

he knew damn well.
that one time he almost burdened Minhos house down when he was trying to make some pancakes.

minho sighed.
"okay, I will make us some pasta, I don't feel like eating Korean food right now. do you agree?"

Han nodded.
"we could make carbonara."

minho smiled.
"I was thinking the same thing."

Han smiled and walked next to minho, joining him inside the kitchen.
"so, what should I do?"

"you can prepare the pasta. we are making spaghetti, so pour water in this pot and put salt in it. just a little tho. than add some olive oil and put it on the stove. when the water is boiling, add the spaghetti, okay?"

Han nodded with a smile and went to look for a pot.

"second cabinet on the left."

Han went to the cabinet and opened it, revealing pots.
"thank you."

minho smiled and continued making the sauce.

Han was watching the water intensively, and when it came to boil, he carefully put the spaghetti inside, so that he wouldn't burn.

Minho watched him, making sure he won't hurt himself.
he knew that Han was kind of dumb and would get hurt any chance he got.
he was actually impressed when Han didn't burn himself.

"good job honey." minho said and kissed jisungs cheeks.

jisung chuckled while his cheeks got a little redder.

minho continued making the sauce, while jisung sat on the counter, watching him.

minho took a spoon and put some of the sauce he made on it. he then turned to jisung.
"try it."

han tried the sauce and whined.
"that's so good minho."

Minho smiled and wrapped his arms around jisungs waist, giving him a peck on the kiss.
"you're so adorable, you know that?"

Han chuckled and gave minho a kiss on the cheek.
"when will the food be ready?"

"we just have to wait for the pasta now. give it like two minutes."

jisung smiled and nodded.
"I will prepare the forks and spoons."
he said and jumped off of the counter.

he went to the drawer and opened it.
he pulled two spoons and two forks.

jisung went to the table and put the forks and spoons on it.

he went back to the kitchen and back-hugged minho.
minho smiled to himself as he was mixing the pasta with the sauce.

"it's ready, you can go sit down."

Han nodded and hummed in response.
he went to the table and sat down.

few moments later, minho walked up to the table, holding two bowls full of pasta in his hands.

"here you go."
minho said as he put the bowl in front of Han.

"thank you."
Han smiled at his boyfriend.

minho went to the other end of the table and sat down, putting his plate in front of him.

"let's eat."
minho said and both of the boys took their first bite.

"oh my god minho, it's so good."
Han said, closing his eyes.

Minho chuckled.
"thank you. I'm surprised you didn't burn the spaghetti when you boiled them."

Han kicked minho under the table.
"take that back."

Minho chuckled.
"sorry, sorry."

they ate in a comfortable silence.
Han didn't finish the whole bowl, but he ate most of it, and minho was proud of him.
he actually looked like he tried to get better.

the two boys sat on the couch, minho immediately putting his hand around hans shoulders, which made han lean against minho.

"hey, minho?"

"mhm?"

"I wanted to talk about something."

"what is it sweetheart?"
Minho said and pulled away, so that he could face jisung.

jisung sighed.
"minho.....how about you asked jyp if you could still go on the world tour?"

"what? why should I?"

"Minho....you worked so hard for this moment, and you gave it up for me. It's not fair. I know you're telling me that it was your choice, but we both know that it isn't true. you're doing it all for me, but I'm getting better minho. you can see that I'm taking care of myself, so you should follow your dreams and go on that tour."

"hell no, I'm staying here with you."

"minho, stop this. I will be okay, I will take care of the cats and if you want, I would call you every chance I get. I just want you to be happy, minho. you deserve it. please, just do this. I know you want to."

Minho sighed.
I mean, he wasn't wrong.
he wanted to go on that tour.

"I'm just....worried."

"don't be minho, do you understand how much would that mean for me if I saw you full-filing your dreams? I would be so happy. please minho, do this for yourself, do this for me, do this for your future."

minho sighed.
"is that really...what I should do?"

Han nodded, giving a small smile to minho.

Minho sighed before looking at Han.
"okay, I will ask jyp tomorrow."

Han smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"I hope that you will fulfill your dreams."
