Do not touch (Minsung)

47

One month, that's how long it was before Jisung had seen Lee Know again, it was tearing him apart. He missed him, a lot. And here at a famous fashion show, they shared a dressing room.

"Yeji I'm nervous. Me and him haven't spoken since the party and like what if he hates my guts and attacks me, my previous wounds have finally healed you're telling me I'm gonna acquire more?" Jisung spoke and Yeji rolled her eyes. "You'll be fine you forget you lived with this man for three months straight." Yeji stopped at the door that had Jisung's name on it. "Go get changed and try not to fight." Yeji opened the door for Jisung who peered into the room. "It's empty." He spoke, "Yup." Yeji shoved him inside before taking off down the hallway.

Jisung took a deep breath closing the door and having a seat. "Okay deep breaths." He spoke to himself before the door split open revealing Chan. Their eyes locked immediately. Chan winced, "Sorry." He whispered moving to let Lee Know walk in. Lee Know all but stormed in ignoring the younger's presence all together. Jisung decided to let it go waving at Chan before he closed the door.

The two men sat on opposite sides of the room not speaking barely breathing. Jisung sighed but decided to start getting ready seeing as Lee Know wasn't gonna talk. He quietly put on the clothes laid out for him moving softly as to not startle the older. Lee Know began to get changed as well seeming to agree with Jisung's decision.

The older seemed empty. Like something was missing inside of him and his soul could no longer function without it. A sheer ghost of who he's meant to be and all Jisung could think about was if it was his fault. In some weird twisted way maybe the soft and gentle words they had shared with each other had ripped him apart. Torn at the seams.

A knock sounded on the door. "Five minutes then the stylists will be in." A voice called out and the two boys quickly finished dressing before sitting at their vanity's and patiently waiting. "Do you hate me?" Jisung spoke and Lee Know sucked in a breath. "Why?" He replied. "Well we had that nice morning together and now you just ghost me and poorly crop me out of pictures and throw me out of your life." Jisung spoke sparing a glance across the room to see the older's face shift with anger.

"That morning, just forget about it. I didn't mean it." Lee Know spoke. "Right so you decided on passive aggressiveness." Jisung spoke rolling his eyes. "You know what your just a fucking liar, nothing but a filthy fucking man whore who'd do anything to get in someone's pants. Did you just say those things in hopes I'd bed you right there? We're you disappointed that we went back downstairs?" Jisung spoke standing up and lurching over toward Lee Know who closed his eyes.

"No Jisung I stopped because we can't do this." Lee Know spoke looking up to make eye contact with the younger. "Do what-"

The door slammed open the stylists rushing in. "Sit sit sit we don't have a lot of time." The one spoke ushering Jisung back to his vanity. Jisung took deep breaths to calm himself as the stylists worked around him doing his hair and makeup. He tried to get his rushing thoughts out of his head but to no avail. He just shut his eyes and let the stylists do their thing. "Alright Jisung you're done." The stylist spoke spraying his face.

"Thank you guys." He spoke standing up and heading out the room, they were still working on Lee Know so Jisung figured he'd go backstage and find Yeji. When he found the girl she was rushing around barking orders at people. "Hey you look like fine shyt." Yeji spoke and Jisung deadpanned. "Please never fucking say that again." Jisung spoke and Yeji broke into giggles. Jisung smiled but didn't laugh. Yeji picked it up immediately.

"A penny for your thoughts?" Yeji spoke leaning against the wall looking effortlessly beautiful. "Just Lee Know and his stupid fucking attitude." Yeji smiled. "Yeah well that's never slowed you before. Get out there and do what you do." She spoke smacking his ass and walking away gesturing for him to follow her.

She led him to where the models were putting their final touches on and lining up. Of course the designer of the line would walk out first introduce the line before debuting it. Jisung envied them, finally getting to showcase their work after striving so hard and all Jisung got was to wear their art.

Recently he'd been working harder than ever to make impressive pieces even beginning to sew some himself. The living room of their apartment was starting to become more of a sewing room. Seungmin didn't mind though in fact he always helped.

Yeji read the paper on the wall finding Jisung's place and putting him in the proper order. He was second to last, with the last person of course being the prettiest of all. Lee Know. As Jisung let the stylist put their finishing touches he heard movement behind him. "Hey Ji how's it going?" He heard the familiar voice behind him. "It's okay how about you?" He spoke not having to turn around to recognize the older. "What brings you here Changbin?" Jisung spoke and Changbin appeared in front of him. "Friends with the designer." He shrugged. Jisung nodded.

"Oh Hyung I have some designs I'd love to show you are you free sometime this week?" Jisung spoke and Changbin looked up like he was searching his brain. "Uhh Friday I think." He spoke and Jisung hummed. "Me as well why don't you come over and then after we can go out for drinks?" He spoke and Changbin nodded. "Well you drink and me apple juice." Jisung clarified. Changbin chuckled. "Yeah that's fine."

They chatted for a bit longer till some of the models ahead of Jisung began to move. "Guess it's my turn soon I'll see you later hyung." Jisung spoke taking deep breaths before stepping up the the steps and turning onto the stage.
