Blurred in My Memories | Minwon

Roses

When Mingyu wakes up, he is still in Wonwoo's arms, his face resting comfortably in his neck. He gets deja-vu of the last time he slept in this position with him. The only difference this time, is that Wonwoo has his eyes open and is looking up at the ceiling. He looks like he's deep in thoughts and doesn't notice Mingyu is awake. 

His eyes are blood-shot and he looks really tired, kind of like always. Mingyu spends the rest of his time in bed calmly watching Wonwoo, memorizing every detail on his face until he'll realize he's awake.

He looks down at him, as Mingyu adjusted his position and is now leaning on his chest. „You're up" Mingyu nods and closes his eyes for a bit. He feels Wonwoo's fingers brush back strands of hair that have fallen in his face and caressing his cheek. Mingyu has not felt this comfortable and at ease in a long time and the question that has been brewing in his mind is finally coming up, what are they? just friends?

„Are you feeling better?" He hears Wonwoo ask quietly like a whisper. Mingyu nods again and he feels like purring when Wonwoos hand move to his hair. He is ripped out of his thoughts as he hears a knock on the door. „The guys are here" Wonwoo says to Mingyu and he looks confused back at him.

„Why?" Mingyu says, why would his friends be here at this hour. They get up quickly and put on some clothes.

Wonwoo puts on his jeans and a shirt „Do you have classes?, it's Sunday?" Mingyu says as he's brushing his teeth in a hurry.

„No, but I have a group project with some colleagues from a class, that we have to finish today" he says and looks at Wonwoo with an apologizing look, Mingyu shakes his head, as to signal to him it's okay and goes to open the door as Wonwoo packs his bag.

He opens the door and is met by Seungcheol, Jeonghan, Chan, Minghao, Seokmin and Jun. Seokmin is holding flower and the rest of the boys are holding plastic bags in their hand. Mingyu gestures for them to come in and sit down, some on the floor and rest on Wonwoos bed and the tiny couch. Mingyu sits on his bed and covers himself with a blanket, because right now it kind of feels like he's standing in a court. They're all staring.

Wonwoo comes up to Mingyu and pats his head and speaks up as he turn around to face them „You know what you have to do, I can't even believe how you guys acted yesterday." Mingyu puts his hand on Wonwoo's forearm and shakes his head slightly when he looks at him. It feels good to have someone protect him like that, but he's not blaming anyone but that man for what happened yesterday.

He smiles at him gently and turns around to leave.

Now he's alone.

Seokmin speaks up first.

„Mingyu, we can't begin to explain what happened, we were being careless and drank way too much way too quickly, we all thought you were still with Minghao in the kitchen, when we saw him outside with Jun after a while, that's when we began to look for you, we're so sorry"

Mingyu nods and Seungcheol starts tearing up on the couch next to Jeonghan „We didn't think to look upstairs first, as we thought no one was allowed up there but when we asked and someone says they saw Jackson drag you up there, we rushed to find you" he says and Jeonghan puts his arm around his shoulder.

„Wait what?" Mingyu says, he thought that wasn't Jackson. He told him, he wasn't.

„Jackson, you said?" Seungcheol nods and Mingyu feels worse, he's not really sure, if that changes anything but it still makes him feel shitty.

„What's wrong Mingyu?" Minghao asks and everyone else starts to look confused. „He said his name wasn't Jackson, when he came up to me he gave me a glass of water and I asked if he was Jackson cause he looked like he was flirting with me, he said no"
