"Jisung, Jisung, oh my god!" Jisung chuckles at his boyfriend's enthusiasm.
"What is it babe?" He asks as he tries to hold him still as he jumps around.
"Renjun said he stayed the whole day and played with him and Yuyi. He said it was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done. Ugh, if only we could have introduced him to Mark years ago. I feel kind of bad about all of our failed attempts." Jisung kisses his cheek softly.
"He knows we did it because we care and that's all that matters." Chenle hums.
"True, I'm just so happy for him, I really hope he is the one for him, he's waited too long." Jisung nods.

"What do you want to do today babe?" Jisung asks before kissing his lips softly.
"I think we should go for a walk in the park, find some good street food and shop in the little shops on Main Street. We could pick out some Christmas gifts or something fun like that." Jisung scrunches his nose.
"Isn't it a little early for Christmas?" Chenle just laughs.
"It's never too early to be prepared, besides we don't really need anything but I want to shop. This way I get the high from shopping without buying stuff we don't need." Jisung shrugs.
"Ok." Chenles smiles happily.
"Come on let's go." He says excitedly making Jisung just shake his head with a fond smile.

As they walk through the park Jisung takes Chenle's hand and smiles softly at him.
"I love you Chenle, more and more everyday." He says making him blush.
"I love you too Jisungie, are you breaking up with me?" He questions with suspicious eyes. Jisung laughs.
"No, I just wanted you to know." Chenle giggles.
"You are so cute. I'm so lucky." He says as he leans closer.

"Have you ever thought about our future together? Like do you think you want to be with me forever?" Jisung asks, breaking the small silence.
"I would never willingly let you go, unless you didn't love me anymore. Why do you ask Jisungie?" He sighs as he stops and takes Chenle's hands.
"My parents, yesterday they kept saying I need to get serious about my future now, I need to stop playing around and find someone to marry." Chenle looks down sadly.
"I always thought they liked me." Jisung cups his cheeks.
"They do, as a friend but they always thought this boyfriend thing was just a faze apparently." Chenle frowns.
"Did you know? This whole time we've been together, did you know how they felt about me?" Jisung puts his head down.
"Not the whole time but they said something last year. I didn't want to break your heart." He says carefully. Chenle shakes his head as tears start to spill from his eyes.

"I feel like such a fool. How could you keep something like that from me?" He asks as he backs away.
"I was trying to protect your feelings. I didn't want you to get hurt." Chenle scoffs.
"You let me go to their house for dinner yesterday thinking they liked me, you knew otherwise. How is that protecting my feelings? Is that why you said all that stuff? Are you actually thinking of leaving me to find someone to marry?" Jisung is shaking his head no in a panic.

Chenle turns and starts walking the other direction.
"Where are you going?" Jisung asks as he tries to catch up.
"I need to be alone. I'm going back to the apartment. Can you please just go find something to do? Or stay in a hotel. I really don't care, I just can't look at you right now." Jisung freezes in place as Chenle walks off.

He is distraught as he doesn't know what to do with himself. Chenle and him have never fought, not this bad anyway. He doesn't even know where to turn for advice. His parents are obviously out of the question. He walks sadly along the path, wishing he could turn back time and not have said anything but then again that's the problem.

He makes it back out to the street and decides he will just rent a hotel room for the night, then maybe Chenle will talk to him in the morning. He is crying so hard now he can hardly see straight so when he bumps into a man on the sidewalk he stumbles backward and falls to the ground.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to knock you down." He holds his hand out for him to take.
"Oh my god wait, aren't you Renjun's friend?" He asks as Jisung scrunches his brow.
"Yeah, uh, sorry I don't really remember you." He smiles making his eyes form crescent moons.

"I'm friends with Mark, I'm Jeno. I'm the one who's adopting a child with my husband." He says as he still looked confused. Jisung's eyes show his realization.
"Oh yeah, sorry. I'm just a little lost right now." Jisung says. Jeno furrows his brow.
"Did you lose your mommy at the park?" He asks teasingly. Jisung pinches the bridge of his nose.
"I'm lost because my boyfriend hates me and doesn't want me to come home to our apartment. I just didn't see you is all. Now excuse me, I have to find a hotel to sleep in."

"Want to talk about it?" Jeno asks kindly. He nods and turns back to him.
After explaining everything he watches as Jeno frowns.
"I say, go home and talk to him. He loves you, just make sure he knows your true feelings and intentions and he will forgive you. I recently went through something similar with Jaemin. He said something that hurt me and instead of talking to him about it, I froze him out for a while. But after we finally talked about it, I wished I would have done it sooner. As much as I thought I wanted him to leave me alone, I really wish he would have fought a little harder. I hate fighting with him. We almost never do, so even though it wasn't that long, I still regret the way we went about it." Jisung nods.
"This was our first big fight ever. I swear I was just trying to protect him." Jeno nods and pats his shoulder.
"Do you love him? Do you want to be with him? Then show him." Jisung nods with a smile.
"I was actually fishing, I wanted to know his thoughts on forever with me because I want to ask him to marry me. But then he asked me why and for some stupid reason I blurted that out." Jeno nods.
"He needed to know the truth anyway. Now, go to him and let him see your true feelings." He nods again with a big smile.
"Thank you so much. This really helped me." Jisung says awkwardly.
"That's what friends are for." Jisung nods and waves goodbye before hurrying off to see Chenle.
"Oh my god, what a cute little baby." Jeno says with a sigh before continuing his walk.

When Jisung gets back to his place he finds Chenle sitting on the couch squeezing a pillow to his chest. He walks over and sits near him.
"I'm really sorry Chenle. Can we talk about this please?" He shakes his head no as he throws the pillow to the floor and pulls Jisung close to him.
"I don't want to talk about it yet, just hold me ok?" Jisung nods and holds him tight.
"I love you." Chenle whispers. Jisung kisses his cheek.
"I love you, always and forever. I don't care who approves of our relationship and who doesn't, you will always be my baby." He says softly. Chenle smiles and pecks his lips.
"I almost went to a hotel you know. I almost give you the space you asked for but then I ran into Jeno, Mark's friend, and we talked a little. He's nice.
"I'm glad he set me straight and sent me home to you. I missed you." Chenle chuckles.
"I missed you too."
