Jisung ended up discovering group works at University.

At first, he didn't appreciate it much. He liked working by himself, and supposed he'd hate to work with someone.

But after getting paired with Hyunjin, he supposed it wasn't so bad.


"Wanna do the work at my dorm ?" Jisung offered, walking with Hyunjin.

"Depends, does it reek sex in any room ?" Hyunjin teased

"Minho and I haven't made love since a week or so" Jisung shrugged.

"Really ?" Hyunjin asked, surpised.

"Why ?"

"Thought you two were on the honeymoon phase" Hyunjin chuckled.

"What's that ?"

"The phase at the begginning of a relationship were the two parts can't keep their hands off each other" He explained

"Oh" He nodded "We went through it, there was a time we couldn't help but kiss each other" He chuckled "We still do, but since I got back to the town and then started working, our schedules align a bit less" He explained

"Is that bothering the two of you ?" He asked curiously.

"It's okay" Jisung smiled "As soon as I get home, he cooked for us and we cuddle in the couch. It's good enough"

"Don't you miss his dick ?" He teased.

"Just a little bit" Jisung chuckled.


They arrived at Jisung's dorm and sat on the couch to get comfortable.

Their books were laying everywhere and they started work rather quickly.

Hyunjin usually wasn't that much concentrated, but Jisung's way of working was really effective and it did help him get into work more easily.

Sometimes, his brain zoned out, staying fascinated on how quick Jisung was with informations.

He was so smart, but so dumb at the same time.


"Ugh" Hyunjin let out, stretching "Let's do a pause, shall we ?"

"Okay" Jisung shrugged, closing his book.

"How was it, in your town ?" Hyunjin asked curiously.

"The usual" He shrugged "But since I'm here, it was weirdly ... unsafe"

"What do you mean ?" 

"It used to be my life. It wasn't scary, because I was used to it. Used to the threats, to the simple violence, to mistreatements I had and witnessed. But now... Now that I know that all of this is bad... it's weird. I felt a bit ... suffocating" He admitted.

Hyunjin softened at that.

"You know, I'm happy you escaped that" Hyunjin said softly "You're a brilliant guy. You have a warm heart and a quick brain. I'm happy all of it isn't ruined by the fact that a cult is hovering over your heart. You had the best decision by leaving this town... I don't think you realize how much you've saved your own life"

"Is it weird that I want to save them too ...?" Jisung asked.

"Of course not" He smiled reassuringly "But ... realistically, you can't save everyone. Not without putting yourself in danger, at least"

"Mmh" Jisung said, staring at his fiddling hands "Even if my mother put me through hell and back, I'm sad for her ... She's just manipulated ... She doesn't even have rights ... She's mistreated completely"

Hyunjin felt really sad to hear that. He leant closer to pass a hand on Jisung's hair, caressing it softly.

"I know how you feel ... When my dad threw me out ... he forced my mother to stop contacting me as well" Hyunjin said, biting at his lower lip "She left me all alone as too, but I know she didn't want to..."

"Why did she do it, then ?" Jisung asked, blinking.

"She didn't have any choice" He sighed "I know you think that life outside of your town is really better, but it's still so unfair ... Domestic violence exist a lot, even if it's against the law. A lot of women are still under the harm of their partner, and ... sometimes they die because of it."

"Your mom is in danger too ?" Jisung asked, turned to Hyunjin with a pout.

"Yep" He smiled sadly "And you and I can't do shit about it"

They didn't say anything after that, both really concentrated on the words they just shared.

As much as Hyunjin hated Jisung at the beginning, and as much as Jisung used to feel uncomfortable around him, the respect they shared to each other at this point was the biggest.

Jisung leant closer, letting his head fall on Hyunjin's shoulder as the other accepted the embrace and hugged back.

And they silently hugged, sharing the same difficult thoughts.


And the silence was disturbed by Jisung's roommate, who just arrived and blinked at the scene.


"Hyunjin, you have two seconds to get your hands off my boyfriend" He said, neutral.

Hyunjin laughed loudly at that, moving away from the hug and staring at Minho.

"Why so defensive ?" He teased.

"Hi Min" Jisung said softly, smiling.

Minho forgot to get mad at Hyunjin, too busy looking fondly at his lover.

"Why does my baby looks so sad ?" Minho said as he walked closer to Jisung, leaning to give a kiss on his forehead.

"We shared secrets" Hyunjin smiled.

"Secrets ?" Minho narrowed his eyes at Hyunjin.

"He admitted to me how you're no longer his fav human" He playfully said.

"Not true" Jisung frowned

"I'm joking bub" Hyunjin winked at the boy.

"Of course I'm his favorite human" Minho said, sitting next to him, grabbing his legs to put them over his lap, and narrowing his eyes at Hyunjin.

"This, Jisung, is a jealous man" Hyunjin said.

"Why ?"

"Because he's so damn whipped for you he can't stand the idea of you not preferring him" Hyunjin chuckled.

"I told you I was quite jealous" Minho admitted

"How can you be jealous of Hyunjin ?" Jisung frowned.

"Ouch" Hyunjin responded jokingly.

"I'm not, I'm joking around" Minho responded.

"He kinda is, he knows I'm hot" Hyunjin smirked.

"Get out of my house before I make you"

"Damn okay"



Jisung was laying his head on Minho's lap, playing with the boy's hand as Minho was humming softly.

"You know you don't have to be jealous, right ?" Jisung stated, still confused.

Minho looked back at him, smiling.

"I trust you, no need to worry about it" Minho responded "I'm the jealous kind, but I won't be toxic either"

"What's a toxic thing to do when jealous ?" He asked curiously.

"There's people that ... force their partner to not go outside of their house, to not see their friends, that go mad and violent towards their partners because their jealousy" He explained.

"So, if I ever see this with you, I should get mad at you ?" Jisung asked.

"Yep" Minho smiled softly "But I wouldn't"

"I know you wouldn't" He smiled back.
