Ying&Yang °•Minsung•°

7.

Training started right the next day.

Jisung almost got a heart attack when bells sounded around The Mansion at sunrise, confused nightmares still roaring in his mind.

"Goodmorning nerd" Minho called with a grin, already dressed and waiting by the door:

"Breakfast starts in ten minutes by the way"

"What!?"

Jisung didn't think he had ever gotten ready so fast.

As he jumped one legged to the door while trying to get his foot in the new pair of converse they had bought the day prior, he noticed Minho's pleased expression was still there.

"You seem in a good mood today" he stated.

Maybe yesterday's Minho was the exception? Maybe he'd be kind today?

"I just like seeing you struggle"

Jisung's smile dropped.

"Guess not..."

"Goodmorning, you two!" someone exclaimed that second.

"Felix! Thank god!"

"Did you sleep well?"

"Yes!" Jisung stated and weirdly, it wasn't even that much of a lie.

The thought that despite his out of control power, he'd never hurt Minho had reassured him to the point where not even his nightmares had phased him much.

"No" Minho answered instead:
"This freak talks in his sleep"

Jisung's entire face turned red:

"Do I actually...?"

Minho nodded.

"Oooooh what was he dreaming, Minmin? Anything... interesting?"
Felix asked, wiggling his eyebrows.

Jisung silently panicked.

His dreams were always extremely scary so he was sure he must have cried out something embarassing in fear.

"No, Felix. It was just stupid stuff, nothing you'd find interesting or whatever"

Jisung's eyes instantly shifted to Minho's.

In them he saw that he was lying.

"Did Minho just lie to protect my reputation...? I thought he'd jump at any opportunity to humiliate me..."

He smiled.

Maybe Minho wasn't so bad after all.

After breakfast Changbin and Felix left for a mission.

"We're going back where Seungmin fought poison guy to fix some stuff and look for remains of his power" Changbin explained as he pulled a backpack on his shoulders.

"His name is not poison guy by the way, he has a protocol code-"

"Oh drop the act, Minho. Chan told us you call him poison guy too" Seungmin bit back, not even looking at him.

"Tch"

"Good luck with your training" Felix instead whispered to him, hinting at Minho:
"You'll need it"

Jisung felt gratitude pull at his heart. Felix was such a nice guy.

"You too. For your...uhm mission?"

Felix smiled widely:
"Don't worry about me. I'll be back before you know it"

And they were off.

"Well, I have a class to teach" Seungmin got up and left with a small wave.

Jisung and Minho were left alone once again.

"Come" the older ordered.

They walked the empty corridors until they reached one of the training rooms. While the center was empty and seemed to act as a fighting ring, the sides looked like a make-shift gym.

Jisung ended up changing into his tracksuit in front of Minho which was pretty embarassing even though the other seemed to not care at all.

"First thing you should always keep in mind. Our power isn't everything." Minho started explaining as Jisung pulled his shirt down:

"Just because there's something supernatural about you doesn't mean you won't be hurt by good old punches, blades or guns."

Jisung nodded.

"And that's why you'll train in close combat as well as a variety of martial arts."

Then Minho did something unexpected. He reached over and pulled Jisung's shirt back up.

"Uhm...what are you doing?" Jisung asked, suddenly flustered.

"You have a decent build for a nerd. Did you do any sport?" Minho asked, unphased, letting the shirt drop.

"Yeah... I tried both football and volleyball..."

"I sucked at both..."

"...but mostly I like to train alone"

Minho turned to him with a grin:
"Then you'll love this class"
