10 months, 10 chances || Minsung

25

They decided to just wait with Jisung until he would calm down a bit, Minho kept holding him trying to comfort him as much as he can which made Jisung stop crying eventually. So now he sat in Minho's arms just staring at the floor.

"Maybe we should bring him home" Seungmin was the first to say something, making everyone turn their heads to him, well except Jisung.

"I'll take him to my house, Aera's home and I don't think he's in the mood to explain what made him so worked up, my parents aren't home so he could have some peace" Minho turned back to Jisung stroking through his hair "I'll give you piggy back alright?"

He just didn't get an answer, Jisung continued to stare at this one spot on the floor. So Minho crouched down that he can pull him on his back, making Jisung lie his legs around Minho's waist.

"We'll get your stuff alright? You can already walk out" then Chan turned around heading out of the bathroom to the booth they had, everyone except Minho and Jisung following him. Minho put his hands under Jisung's thighs to not drop him and walked outside. In front of the bowling arena was something similar to a garden, you could either head out or get into the little garden area to spend time with your friends and order food and drinks, since the garden is directly next to the kitchen.

It was just when they were already almost away from the entrance that Insu, who sat in that little garden with his friends, had to speak up "aww does little Jiji have to be carried?" and Minho stopped in his tracks, turning around to glare at him, but before he could do anything Felix beat him to it.

"You fucking bastard" Felix stomped to him and pushed him backwards before punching him across the face "the fuck you think you are that you can talk to him like that?" another push "you better fucking watch your mouth" then he punched him again, just this time you could hear a crack and quickly after this Insu's nose began to bleed. The only thing Insu did though, was standing there and grinning like a psychopath.

"Don't you ever dare to touch him, talk to him or look at him again. Don't even think about him. If you do that I'll come back and then your nose won't be the only thing that cracks, I swear to god don't ever get fucking near him again" just before Felix was about to throw another punch at him Hyunjin held him back, talking close to his hair "Felix as much as I would love to watch you doing that, they are fifteen now, not only him. I'm sure we all would love to see him hurt, well more than he already is, but we wouldn't have the slightest chance, seven against fifteen would never work out. You broke his nose, let this be it for now alright?" then Hyunjin let go of him, stepping back a bit.

Felix only looked at Insu for what felt like hours "go back to hell where you belong you fucking psychopath" then he turned around to go back to his friends.

"See you" was the only thing Insu said while chuckling like crazy but they ignored it, rather concentrating on getting Jisung safe.

When they reached Minho's house they all parted ways letting Jisung calm down a bit. So as soon as they got in, Minho sat him onto the counter in the kitchen lying his hand on Jisung's cheek. He was still pretty out of it but he moved his eyes to look at Minho's.

"Love I'll get you something to drink and some strawberries okay? Do you want anything else?" he tried to keep his voice quiet and as gentle as possible to not scare him with it, then Jisung shook his head slowly, looking back into his lap and fiddling with his fingers while Minho started to wash some strawberries. He tried to look over to Jisung as often as possible, worry was written all over his face.

Strawberries are Jisung's favorite fruit, that's what he found out when they had that picnic when it was still winter and snow fell in tons. Maybe with the strawberries he would make Jisung feel a little bit better. But making the strawberries also gave him a little time to think about Jisung.

They started actively talking in December, before that they were only those school acquaintances you greet and who sit together during lunch and that's it. That was six months ago. Since then they've grown together a lot and the little crush Minho had ever since he saw Jisung the first time, grew to something bigger. Not that Minho would admit that, he doesn't believe in love, he saw how love turned out with his parents.

At first everything works out fine, but with the blink of an eye it's chaos everywhere. The only thing you recognize about love is fighting. That's the only thing he sees about his parents anymore. Waking up, fighting, going to work to get space, coming back and fighting, trying to eat dinner together as a family but ending up fighting. They loved Minho so much and they still do, but they barely even talk to him anymore because they're so occupied with arguing.

It even goes as far that one of them either sleeps on the couch, or gets a hotel for the night. And that wasn't what Minho wants. When he first met Jisung it was like this feeling, that something pulls you to that person, that it's not possible to resist and he gave in. It's not like he regrets getting so close with Jisung, just now he had the problem that he's falling for him, deeply. And it gets harder to resist day by day but his body moved from itself and the words that leave his mouth like the petnames he calls Jisung, they just form by themselves.

After getting some strawberries he took water, then he went back to Jisung to lift him down from the counter, still holding him.

"You okay to walk?" Minho whispered to which Jisung nodded and slowly started to walk forward, Minho following close behind him. The time they got into Minho's room he quickly made his bed comfortable for Jisung and himself so that he can put the strawberries and water on his nightstand. When that was done he slowly took Jisung's hand and sat him down on his bed, giving him the glass of water, he figured that the crying made his throat dry. After a quiet 'thank you' left Jisung's mouth he made eye contact with Minho for the second time this evening.

When Jisung's eyes started welling up with tears again he quickly spoke up, his quivering voice still present "the night I called you, I was acting like this because I've had a dream about things he did to me" Minho just looked at him, kissing his forehead. Then Jisung pulled his sleeve up, pointing to the most prominent scar he had on his wrist "that was Insu"

So when Minho looked what Jisung meant his eyes widened. Saying he was shocked is an understatement, he pulled Jisung close to hug him tightly, lying both of them down and then pulling the blanket up. Minho also pulled Jisung close bringing him in his embrace while kissing his forehead again.

"I'm here now Ji, he won't hurt you anymore love, I'll protect you"

And Jisung closed his eyes, he got pretty exhausted over the crying and the socializing. Still, he couldn't seem to find any rest there were millions of things going on inside his head.Two of them being that he thought that Changbin hated him, yet he got so mad about Insu hurting Jisung, and the second is Insu saying 'see you'

Poor Jisung started to overthink for almost the whole night.
