Summery: Lee Know gets jealous over Hyunjin and Y/N closeness to the point he needs to leave for fresh air. Hyunjin suggests that y/N follows after him.

. . .

Minho's gaze lingered on y/n and Hyunjin, a mix of emotions swirling within him. He tried to focus on the conversation around him, but his attention kept drifting back to them. They were close, too close for his liking. Hyunjin's laughter echoed in his ears, and the sight of him being so tactile with y/n made Minho's heart clench uncomfortably.
A flash of annoyance crossed his face when Hyunjin casually wrapped an arm around y/n's waist, pulling her in for a selfie. His lips brushed her cheek in a playful peck, and that was the last straw for Minho. He abruptly stood up, his chair scraping against the floor, drawing startled glances from everyone. Without a word, he stormed out of the room, leaving a tense silence behind.
Outside, the cool air did little to calm his racing heart. Minho leaned against the wall, trying to process his feelings. It was no secret among the group that he harbored deep affection for y/n, but he had always kept these emotions to himself, especially around her.

Back inside, Hyunjin nudged y/n gently, a knowing look in his eyes. "You should go check on him," he suggested softly. "He might not say it, but he cares about you a lot."

Y/n hesitated for a moment, then nodded, understanding the unspoken feelings that Minho harbored. With a determined look, she excused herself and headed out to find Minho, hoping to bridge the gap that had formed between them. Y/n approached Minho with caution, her heart pounding in her chest. She found him still leaning against the wall, his figure tense. "Minho?" she called out softly, hoping not to startle him.

He looked up, his expression initially hard. "What are you doing here, y/n?" His voice had an edge, but his eyes betrayed a warmth that contradicted his words.

"I just wanted to make sure you're okay," she replied, stepping closer. "You seemed upset."

Minho scoffed lightly, trying to maintain his composure. "I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me."

Y/n noticed the strain in his voice, realizing that there was more to his feelings than he was letting on. "Minho, talk to me. What's going on?"

He hesitated, then let out a heavy sigh. "It's just... seeing you with Hyunjin. It's hard, you know?"

Y/n's heart skipped a beat. She had always sensed a certain tension from Minho, but she hadn't realized the depth of his feelings. "Minho, I..."

Before she could finish, Minho's emotions overflowed. "It's like I'm invisible to you whenever he's around. You're with him all the time and I can't stand it, y/n. I can't..."

Not knowing how else to respond, y/n stepped forward and gently pressed her lips against his, silencing his words. The kiss was soft and tentative, a question more than a statement.
Minho froze for a moment, stunned. Then, slowly, he began to respond, his arms wrapping around her waist as he pulled her closer. The kiss deepened, filled with the pent-up emotions he had been holding back.
Meanwhile, back with the group, everyone turned to look at Hyunjin. The atmosphere was thick with unspoken questions.

"Did you know about this?" Changbin asked, his eyes wide.

Hyunjin just shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant. "I had a hunch," he admitted. "But I wasn't sure until now."

"Wow, I didn't see that coming," Felix commented, his eyes still fixed on the door where y/n had exited.

Seungmin nodded in agreement. "They always had a special connection, but I never thought..."

Han chimed in, "Well, it's about time, right? They've been dancing around each other for ages."

The group fell into a speculative chatter, wondering about the implications of this new development in Minho and y/n's relationship.

Back outside, Minho and y/n slowly broke the kiss, each searching the other's face for answers. "I've liked you for a long time, y/n," Minho confessed, his voice barely above a whisper.

Y/n's heart soared. "I had no idea, Minho. I just thought..."

He cupped her face gently, his gaze intense but full of affection. "No more thinking. Let's just be here, together."

They stood there for a moment, wrapped in each other's embrace, the world around them fading into the background. It was a new beginning for both of them, a chance to explore what had been hidden in their hearts for so long.
