Author's pov...
"Minho?" Jisung called out, his voice softer now, desperate to make things right before Minho walked out.
Minho paused, his back still turned. "Hm?" His tone was low, carrying the weight of his ruined mood.
Jisung stood up, walking toward Minho, his steps tentative but full of sincerity. He reached out, gently touching Minho's arm.
"I... I do like you," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper. "And I do remember what happened last night."
Minho's shoulders tensed slightly, but he didn't turn to face him. "Then why did you say that, Jisung? Are you having fun messing with me when you know how much I love you?" His voice cracked, but only just.
Jisung's heart ached at the pain in Minho's words.
He knew he had messed up. He lowered his gaze, biting his lip. "I just wanted to tease a bit. Sorry," he said, his voice trembling with regret.
Minho shook his head slowly, the hurt still in his tone. "Don't say sorry, just promise me you'll stay. Even after six months."
Jisung stepped closer, his gaze intense and earnest. "I will," he said with conviction. "I love you too much to leave you."
The words seemed to hang in the air, and for a moment, neither of them moved. Then, slowly, their eyes met, and the weight of their emotions broke the tension.
Minho smiled softly, a look of relief washing over him. "I was waiting and wanting to hear that."
Jisung returned the smile, his fingers gently brushing against Minho's hand.
They leaned in closer, the distance between them closing with each heartbeat.
Their lips met in a tender kiss, a kiss that spoke of everything they hadn't said yet, everything they would promise to one another from here on out.
As they pulled away, the world outside seemed a little brighter, the weight of their uncertainty lifted, even if just for a moment.
"I wanna give you all the happiness in the world" Minho murmured, his forehead resting against Jisung's.
Jisung smiled, the corners of his eyes crinkling with warmth. "i know, i noticed that. For a man like you, ofc, you're whipped over a weirdo like me"
"You're not a weirdo, you're the bestest version of a person anyone could ever be. " Minho said, his eyes screamed love yet heart beated fast, making it hard to say these things out loud.
"You love me so much, don't do it. Everyone hates me, even i do." jisung said, almost crying now.
"I wanna love you till you stop hating yourself and i will continue to love you even after that" minho said, his words making it clear how much he love this squirel infront of him.
And in that moment, everything felt right.
