"jisung, you ready?!"
minho yelled.

it was a Saturday night, and they were just about to start with the movie.

minho was in the kitchen, preparing the snacks, while jisung was upstairs, changing into his pajamas.
they decided to wear their pajamas, you know, for the comfort.

minho took the two huge cans of soda and made his way into the living room, just as jisung made his way out of his room.
he had a cute fluffy sweatpants with bears on it, together with some simple oversized shirt.

he looked...quite adorable.
but minho wouldn't admit that loud.

"so, what do you want to order?"
minho asked, placing the sodas on the small table by the couch.

"definitely something salty. how about pizza? maybe fried chicken?"
jisung suggested.

"yes, oh my god."
minho said, taking out his phone.
"which pizza you want?"

"as long as it doesn't have pineapple on it I don't care."
jisung said, going into the kitchen and bringing the snacks into the living room, sitting down on the couch.
"also why the fuck you bought so many snacks? I gained twenty pounds just looking at them."

"calm down, you're not erik the electric."
minho said, finish the order.
"besides, you will want something salty after you eat all that cheesecake on your plate."

"excuse you young man? I'm trying to watch my figure."
jisung said, putting a big chunk of cheesecake in his mouth.

"yep, I can see that."
minho said, unamused.
"the food should be here in twenty minutes."

"how about we waited for the food? twenty minutes is not that much anyway, and I don't want to stop the movie to go get the food."
jisung suggested.

"hold up, that's actually a good idea. probably the first time an actual good idea came out of your mouth."

jisung gasped.
"how dare you? I'm full of good ideas."

"jisung you would jump out of a window for 10 000 won, I don't think you are."
minho chuckled, before turning more serious.
"but...since we have some time now, I wanna ask you something."

"mhm. go on."
jisung said, putting another piece of cheesecake in his mouth.

"what's...happening with hyunjin? is he still texting you? or did he leave you alone?"
minho asked.

there was a moment of silence, the two boys just staring at each other, before jisung finally spoke:
"do you want me to move out?"

"what?! no, no no! of course not."
minho quickly defended.
"it's just that...you're never really telling me what's going on with him. i know him for a long time, and i know that he's really persistent, and that he always gets what he wants. I'm just...worried, you know?"

jisung gave him a small sad smile.
"well, he's making new Instagram accounts and always texts me in the mornings and nights. sometimes in the middle of the day too. I figured blocking him would just lead to him making new account, so I just muted him, and I'm ignoring his messages."

minho sighed.
"what's his deal? why the fuck does he still annoy you?"

"hyunjin is a...really complicated person. like you said, he always has to get what he wants. everything needs to be according to him. so when I left him, and he couldn't made me stay, maybe he's just trying to get his dominance back. he can't accept that I left him, because he didn't make the choice. I'm pretty sure he doesn't even love me, and all his love bombarding is just to prove to himself that he still has power over me."
jisung said, leaning back against the couch.
"but I'm curious about his other one. you know, who they are, or if they knew that hyunjin had boyfriend all along. hell maybe I even knew them. maybe they are in a relationship right now."
jisung closed his eyes, letting out a sigh.
"what if they are going trough the same thing right now as I did?"

"jisung, you don't owe the other one anything. they persuaded a relationship with a taken man. they deserve whatever is coming to them."
minho said.

"what if they didn't know?"
jisung looked at minho.

minho gave him a small smile, before taking his hand.
"even then, you don't own anything to hyunjin, nor his other partner. you got away from him, so I'm pretty sure if things got bad, the other partner would leave too."
he said.

jisung looked at his wrist.
a wrist that had bruises from his ex boyfriend on it once.
even tho it healed and it wasn't there, jisung could always see it.
"I...don't think they would be able to."

minho looked where jisung was looking, closing his eyes and letting out a quiet sigh.
"how about this."
he started, taking jisungs second hand as well.
"i work with hyunjin. if I ever saw a boy or a girl with him that would look like his partner, I will try to figure out if they need help, or if they are the affair partner, okay?"

jisung kept staring at him, before he started sobbing.

"hey, what's wrong?"
minho asked, sitting on the couch next to jisung, wrapping his arm around jisung's shoulders.

"it's just that..."
jisung cried.
"you're doing so much for me. I brought you into this mess, and all you have been doing is making me feel like myself, and safe. but I don't have anything I can give you in return."

minho smiled sadly.
"hey, I don't want anything from you. I care about you, and I am at ease knowing that you are safe and healthy. I'm gonna be your pillar for as long as you need. don't feel guilty."

for a while, there was silence, before jisung pulled away and looked at Minho.
"are you sure you don't want me to move out?"

minho chuckled.
"I'm a very honest person jisung. if I wanted you to move out, I would have told you so a long time ago."
he said, taking jisungs hand.
"and besides, I enjoy living with you. I got used to it, and I think it would be..weird if I didn't have you here. besides, my sons love you, we might as well start the adoption process so they could be your sons too."

jisung pouted, before throwing himself at minho, who caught him, but ended up falling on his back.
jisung was now on top of him, hugging him as tight as he could.
"just so you know, if we ever got a divorce, I'm taking the kids."

both of them chuckled, and jisung put his hands on Minhos shoulders, bringing himself up a bit, and their eyes met.
their faces were so close to each other, that if either of them wanted, they could just capture the other ones lips, and make them theirs.

the thoughts running through their minds couldn't be clear, as their faces got even closer...

and then, there was a knock on the door, which woke both of them from their trance.

jisung immediately got off of Minho, as he stared to panic a little.
"uhm, I'm gonna...yes, the door."
he said, quickly making his way to the door, trying not to think about what just happened.

"hello, here is your pizza."
the delivery guy said right after the door was opened in front of him.

if the deliver guy arrived just seconds later, jisung would have kissed minho.
