Forget Me Not || Minsung

18

Bright rays of sunshine woke Jisung up from his sleep. Outside the window birds were chirping beautiful melodies and creating a peaceful morning.

He turned to the other side and there he was facing a comfortably sleeping Minho who was hugging the blanket with a resting smile. The rays of sunshine lit up his face to show off his beauty.

Suddenly yesterday's moments came back to him and his morning turned a little gloomy. Guilt. He felt guilty.

Although he was happy to wake up to such a gorgeous man sleeping next to him rather than an empty cold bed, he knew he wouldn't be able to go through his day without talking things out with him.

What a sudden but needed change between them.

Minho was awakened by Jisung moving in the bed to reach for his phone. He pleasantly hummed mid-stretch and turned on his side to look at Jisung.

"Hey," Minho mumbled in a breathy voice, catching the other's attention.

"Hey..." Jisung softly replied but turned to look at the bed sheets after Minho sweetly smiled at him. He felt like he didn't deserve to see that smile being directed to him.

Minho sat up to get a closer look at him. "Hey, what's wrong?" Minho reached to put a hand on Jisung's that was resting on the blanket and smiled happily when he didn't pull away.

"Why are you being so...sweet today?" Jisung asked and sighed with a glance at their hands.

"Should I not be?" he asked, looking at him unsure.

"No, it's nice but..." He sighed again. "Can we talk about yesterday and everything?"

Minho calmly nodded and climbed over the blanket to be positioned towards him. He took both of Jisung's hands in his and looked at his eyes.

"Where should we start?" Minho asked.

"I think...apologizing would be a great start." Jisung's lips tugged into a sad smile.

"Okay, I'll start-"

"What?" Jisung asked and tilted his head. "Why would you apologize? I'm the one who should be apologizing and I'm feeling shitty for what I've done so please listen."

Minho nodded, "Okay."

"Okay," Jisung repeated. "I'm...not sure how to say it without sounding dishonest but I swear that I am truly sorry for everything I've said and done. I was so stupid. Not only did I blame you for Angela's death and said I hated you, which wasn't true even when I said it. I was just..."

"Hurt? Vulnerable? Angry?" Minho tried helping him pick the words. Jisung nodded. "Yeah, all of that."

"Not only did I say those things and everything else but I also physically hurt you," Jisung quietly said, full of regret.

With the tips of his fingers he brushed Minho's upper cheek, where the bruise was almost completely healed. "I'm so sorry..."

Minho didn't move away or anything, he only watched him with this look in his eyes. As if he saw his whole world in front of him. His lips tugged into a tiny smile.

"It's okay, Sung, I forgive you."

Jisung lowered his hand down only for it to be taken by the older, Minho's fingers brushing his skin gently.

"You forgive too easily..." Jisung quietly said that Minho barely heard him.

"I don't. But the people I really care for are an exception." Minho smiled more brightly now and Jisung returned it. "Can I say my part now?" Jisung nodded.
