Boy across the street (KSM/HHJ)

thirty-seven

Hyunjin PoV

When I got home there was no one there and Seungmin was supposed to be home earlier than me. I looked around and when I couldn't find him I started to worry. If he had gone to Changbin or Minho he would have told me something.

But if he had seen what had happened he would definitely have misinterpreted it.

My hand slipped into my pocket and took out my cell phone where I looked for Seungmin's contact, who was the first one cause we texted pretty much, and called him.

It rang in my ear a few times until the voicemail answered and I started to worry.

What if something happened to him when he went home and he was now lying on the floor dehydrated and no one knew where he was and no one could help him.

I knew it was just my dramatic thinking that was kicking in, but I was still very worried about him. But I also didn't want to bother him if he needed some distance from me, which is why I didn't call him again but instead got something to eat from the fridge.

My head was spinning because I had such a bad feeling that Seungmin wasn't home yet. I slowly shoveled the food into my mouth and thought about the situation before.

It was so disgusting to be touched by her lips, her lips on mine, it just didn't fit.

Seungmin was the one who belonged to me and I would have liked to have written it big on the school gate so that I wouldn't be bothered anymore by people who like me.

Suddenly I saw his disappointed face in front of my eyes when he saw me being kissed, he would definitely think that I was cheating on him.

My heart started beating louder and I became even more nervous than I already was. When I took out my phone again, my hands were shaking and I looked for Minho's Instagram.

If anyone knew where Seungmin was, then it was Minho or Changbin but I had a feeling it was Minho at the moment.

So I tapped on Seungmin's profile and started going through his followers. There I found an account called lee_knows. This account was only followed by Seungmin, Changbin and accounts that were probably scamming.

With hesitation I pressed the call button.

I didn't have to wait long until he answered and I said hesitantly: "Do you know where Seungmin is?"

I tried to stay calm, which was a little difficult since I knew I wasn't one of those people Minho liked very much, but when he answered me normally I was surprised.

"He's in the hospital," he said and then my heart stopped, maybe my overdramatic thoughts were right after all. A cold shiver ran down my spine and I dropped my fork on the plate as I stood up.

"What, what happened?!" I asked hastily, running my hands through my hair. I could hear a sigh from the other line before he said, "He's sitting in the waiting room with me right now, it's nothing serious, he probably broke his fingers but-" I could hear a rustling, as if he had stood up and then said he said something to Seungmin that I didn't understand.

"But why did you kiss someone else?"

When he confronted me about it, I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down.

However, I couldn't bring my unregulated breathing under control. I whispered, "I have to tell Seungmin that it wasn't what he thought it was, he took it the wrong way, she kissed me without me wanting it because she thought she could do anything with me after confessing her love for me
I quickly pushed her away but Minnie probably misinterpreted it and I-" when I realized how quickly I was speaking I stopped myself.

"Can I talk to him? Or does he not want to?"

"He said he would like to stay with me for a couple of days, but if you want to clarify what's going on, maybe he'll come home then... just wait until he's called by the doctor so he doesn't have to stop in the middle of the conversation," he said and I nodded.

Why was he so different to me than usual?

"Do you trust me?" I asked.

"I don't trust you but I believe you, you make Seungmin so happy that he almost makes little leaps into the air and I haven't seen him like that in a really long time, actually never. So I believe you, but trust still has to be built between us. "

"Okay, can you tell him to call me if he wants to?" I said and slowly sank back into my chair.

He gave a quiet “mhm” and then said goodbye.

I was a little relieved when Seungmin was in the hospital and thought I had cheated, but it was a big relief when Minho spoke to me normally.

Hopefully if Minho was this nice to me everything would sort itself out quickly and Seungmin would listen to me intelligently.

At least that's what I thought...
