Eleven🔮

It had been two weeks since Jisung had left. 

Since that morning Minho had found him asleep, easy to look at and most importantly healed. 

Minho still couldn't wrap his head around it. He still couldn't mentally comprehend how fast Jisung's jaw had healed. Two weeks later, Minho still had a bruise on his own jaw so how on earth did Jisung not have one the day after??

Minho had spent most of his time trying to think of why until one evening it all clicked. The rumours. Those rumours of Jisung inheriting his great grandmother's magic powers had been circulating his head for the past few days. 

He had mentioned it to Chan but he didn't seem very convinced. Minho understood that though, it wasn't like everyday you found someone who held ancient magic from deep rooted family history. Especially not in modern day. 

But Minho couldn't find another explanation to it. He couldn't think of anything else rational that made sense. So it had to be magic and when he weighted up the thoughts - It made even more sense. 

When Jisung was asked about the rumours during the interview, he remebered that the prince had tensed slightly. When Minho had to go searching the castle for him that night at the buffet, he remembered seeing a orange glow in the garden - which now he recalled being much brighter than the lighter Jisung had claimed it to be. 

And to top it off - He had healed quickly. Too quickly to be normal. So maybe his suspisions weren't fully answered but they also had some truth to hold onto. 

As he sat on his bed, reading a book as he usually did, another thought for his list of Jisung having magic flickered in his head. 

His eyes. 

Minho remembered how he saw the slight glow of gold in the small dots in Jisung's eyes. Part of him hating the fact he even thought about the other's eyes and the fact that he clearly had been staring close enough to Jisung's eyes at the time to even notice such a small detail. 

Minho shut his eyes and ran a hand through his hair "What is wrong with me..." That morning seemed to be replaying in his head now. The way he had cradled Jisung's jaw, admired how he slept peacefully. 

Minho groaned "What was I thinking?" He sighed as a knock on his door pulled him out of his trance "Enter" he called out and in walked his mother. She gave him a soft smile and walked to sit at the edge of his bed. "How are you love?" She asked warmly. 

Minho wouldn't deny that his mother was probably the only chill person he knew apart from Chan. Minho wasn't a chill person himself so that made everything around him feel agonisingly difficult. His father was the same though, strict and straight to the point, never stood out of line and never broke a rule. 

Unlike someone else Minho had come to think about more often...

"I'm okay, just catching up on some readings my tutor gave me" He gestured to the book in his hand which in turn made his mother nod "Very well, I'm just here to tell you that you're heading off this weekend" She smiled. 

Minho raised his brows "Huh? Heading off? To where? Is it some form of duty?" He asked. His mother chuckled lightly "You can call it a duty if you want to" She then took a breath "You'll be heading to the Han Kingdom for the weekend, doing pretty much the same things as you and Jisung have done here" She explained. 

Minho's smile dropped. "What" He spoke cold. "You...You want me to go to his kingdom!?" He exclaimed, shutting his book "Hasn't Jisung being in our kingdom caused enough damage to my brain!" He glared. 

His mother sighed "I'm fully aware of how hostile you two were the last time but this time it has to be different Minho. Rumours of that fight between you two have been circulating the last two weeks and it cannot go any further"

Minho felt his heart drop. He had never had rumours about him spread around before. He had only ever known that Jisung had rumours on his tail all the time and yet even Minho engaged in them. 

But now hearing that he now was on the lips of others for something such as violence...He felt...scared. 

He never had stepped out of line, never had broken a rule, never laid a hand on anyone until Jisung came along and pushed his buttons. Sure, the most Minho had ever had his name circulated was with how often he was compared to Jisung, but even at that it never made him scared but it only made him hate Jisung. 

He never understood why he was always compared to Jisung and it was that reason that fuelled his hatred for the prince. 

But now, he was being talk about for something violent, not how perfect he was. Now he was being spoken about for how he had hit Jisung, not for how he followed the rules. 

And it scared him. 

His mother sighed seeing how tensed Minho had become "Look sweetie, the rumours have been kept at bay, your father denied them" She explained "But you need to step up now and make sure that the people believe you didn't hit Jisung and visa versa" She took his hand. 

"You are a good prince Minho" She smiled and then squeezed his hand lightly "But you are also a kind and caring human being" Minho looked at their hands and took a breath "and I've never seen you hate anyone" 

"It's hard not to hate Jisung though mom" Minho digressed but his voice was soft now, clearly trying to think things over. "Look, your father and I aren't asking you and Jisung to be best friends but we are asking that you at least tolerate one another. Which means you don't hit one another" 

Minho knew she was right. He slowly nodded his head, feeling ashamed to give in so quickly but he knew where she was coming from. He knew that for this truce to work, for the sake of their two kingdoms and the future - he had to work with Jisung. 

"Okay...I'll....try tolerate him...But it doesn't mean I'll be fully nice" He sighed "What time do I leave?" He asked feeling defeated. 

His mother smiled "On Friday night, the journey is a long one down south" Minho nodded at this. Jisung had taken the same journey up north so he couldn't complain.
