You Belong With Me | Jeongcheol Fanfic

Chapter 48

Over the next few weeks, Jisoo and Seokmin worked tirelessly to set their plan in motion. They organized a mini art project at their apartment, inviting Junhui, Minghao, and a few others to join in. The theme was "Creativity Unleashed," encouraging everyone to express themselves through different mediums—painting, music, and even dance.

On the day of the gathering, the apartment buzzed with excitement. Jisoo and Seokmin had transformed their space into a vibrant studio filled with canvases, musical instruments, and colorful decorations.

As the guests arrived, Jisoo welcomed Minghao with a bright smile. "Hey, Minghao! We're so glad you could make it!"

"Thanks for having me," Minghao replied, glancing around at the lively atmosphere. "This looks amazing!"

Seokmin chimed in, "We thought it'd be fun to create something together! Junhui should be here soon."

Minghao nodded, his eyes sparkling with curiosity. "I can't wait to see what we come up with."

Once everyone settled in, Jisoo suggested they start with some collaborative painting. "Let's split into teams! Minghao, you can team up with Junhui," he said, glancing at Seokmin, who was busy setting up the easels.

The moment Junhui entered, Jisoo couldn't help but notice the way Minghao's expression brightened. Junhui approached with a grin, looking a bit nervous but excited nonetheless.

"Hey, Minghao! Ready to create some masterpieces?" Junhui teased, his eyes glinting with mischief.

"Definitely! I've got some ideas," Minghao replied, a hint of enthusiasm in his voice as he grabbed a brush.

As the pairs formed and started painting, Jisoo and Seokmin quietly observed the budding chemistry between Junhui and Minghao. They laughed and shared stories, slowly breaking down any barriers that lingered.

Later in the afternoon, as the canvases filled with color and laughter echoed around the room, Seokmin suggested, "How about we take a break and play some music? I brought my guitar!"

"Great idea!" Jisoo agreed, and soon the group shifted to the living area, where Seokmin strummed a few chords while Junhui pulled out his keyboard.

Minghao watched intently, a spark of admiration in his eyes. "You play really well, Seokmin," he complimented, clapping lightly after a short performance.

"Thanks! You should join in!" Seokmin encouraged. "What do you like to play?"

"I mostly play the ukulele, but I can give the guitar a try," Minghao replied shyly, his face slightly flushed.

As they transitioned to the music session, Jisoo nudged Seokmin, whispering, "Look at them! They're so in sync!"

Seokmin grinned. "They really are. Just wait; I think they'll start to see how perfect they are together."

Encouraged by the warm atmosphere, Minghao and Junhui began to experiment with harmonizing, their voices blending beautifully. As the hours passed, the initial awkwardness melted away, leaving only laughter and shared joy.

Later, as the sun began to set, Jisoo suggested they create a final piece as a group—a large mural that represented their collective creativity and friendships. Everyone eagerly participated, splashing paint and writing encouraging words on the canvas.

In that moment, Jisoo noticed how Minghao and Junhui gravitated toward each other, their laughter punctuating the air as they playfully smeared paint on one another.

Finally, as the gathering came to an end, Seokmin turned to Jisoo, his eyes shining with excitement. "I think we did it. They really connected tonight."
