Jonghyun's POV

I was still chatting with the pretty cashier woman, Lee Ji-eun, when Minki came back in with Zelo. I smirked. I bet Minki was trying to get Zelo to shut up.

"What are you smirking about, Jonghyun?" Ji-eun asked.

"Oh, nothing. Doesn't that Zelo guy look gay?" I asked her. She stared at me, then giggled. I felt a glare aimed at my back, which was probably that blonde named Bang Yongguk. 

"Kind of. Look at the way he looks at your friend," she smiled softly, looking over at Zelo. Glancing over at Zelo and Minki, I felt a bit of annoyance. I should go over a spoil their ful. :D I pulled out the money for the haircut and put it on the desk. 

"Thanks, we have to go now," I gave my best smile. Ji-eun took the change and grinned back.

"Nice doing business with you," she bowed as she returned to her work. 

I walked to the door and called out to Minki, "Hey! We're going!" 

Minki looked over at me, then at Zelo. Even though she was trying to hide it, I could see the glare she gave Zelo that indicated something. Then she ran over to me and bowed to Ji-eun, " Thank you!" 

"You're welcome," Ji-eun smiled a business smile, " Come back again!"

Minki and I were about to leave when Zelo suddenly yelled, "WAIT!!! Can I come with you?!" 

Mink spun around in surprise and shock. I could tell she was panicking, and that she was scared he'd tell me that she was a girl. Maybe I'll play around with the two of them for a bit. 

I tried to hide it, but I couldn't prevent a huge smirk appearing on my face as I replied, "Sure." 

Zelo hurried after us, but Minki stopped him, saying, "But don't you have work to do for your agency? And what about school?!" 

"What about school for you?" Zelo shot back. Minki's met her match. :D

"Touché," I grinned as we left. I could see Minki frown and could literally see the gears in her working.

"But, but, Jonghyun! Don't we have to do some company trainee stuff?" she asked. NOOO!!! Minki, don't ruin my fun!

"Yeah, but we can do it later. Let's have fun with Zelo now! Let's go to the movies!" I smiled like I was innocently thinking of ideas we could do. Minki looked at me suspiciously, but Zelo grinned and pumped his fist into the air.

"LET'S GO!!! I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO WATCH THAT NEW MOVIE THAT CAME OUT!!" Zelo yelled as he dragged us towards the cinema.

_______________

"Let's watch Monster Spider!" Zelo pointed out. We were standing at the ticket booth, looking at our options.

"Nah, let's watch Only Letter. Didn't you want to watch that, Minki?" I asked as I lifted an elbow and leaned it on her shoulders. Minki had talked about wanting to watch this movie for a loooong time.

"YEAH!!" Minki agreed, oblivious to my advances. I snuck a glance at Zelo. He was fuming like a teapot, and it was hilarious because his cheeks turned red and it looked like he had applied blush. Wanting to see what he would do if I went even further, I stuck an arm around he shoulder. Not in such a manner that it looked like she was my girlfriend, but enough to get the job done.

"STOP IT!!" Zelo snapped. Minki looked at him like he was crazy.

"Stop what?" Minki asked.

"THAT-THAT-ARGHH!!! WHATEVER!! Let's watch Only Letter, then!" Zelo spluttered, his whole face pink.

PSHH!! Idiot! :P 

Minki went up to order three tickets for the movie and we started walking towards the room the movie was in. I walked over closer to Minki, and Zelo, who was on the other side of her, moved in closer, too.

"Hey, Minki. What do you think we'll eat for dinner tonight?" I asked. Zelo looked at us.

"WAIT. Do you two eat dinner together always or something?!" Zelo asked, eyes wide.

"Of course we do! Jonghyun and I live together!" Minki said like it was obvious. I swear Zelo's eyes just popped. I smirked once again as I opened the door to the movie room.

"WHAT?! LIKE-LIKE A COUPLE?!" Zelo squeaked loudly. A ton of heads turned towards the blonde and shushed him.

"Mianhe~" he cutely apologized as we found our seats. Commercials were still going on, so a few people were casually whispering in the audience. Minki sat between the two of us.

"Of course not like a couple, Zelo! I'm a guy! And plus, we live with three other guys, too!" Minki hissed. Zelo could just stare. Then he leaned close to Minki and whispered something to her. 

For some reason, I felt a bit irritated at his closeness, and I decided to break into their chumminess. I leaned my head forward, so that I was leaning across Minki's legs, and whispered, "Hey, let me it on the dirty, little secret!" I winked. 

Zelo stared at me, and Minki just pushed my head back to wear it was supposed to be, in front of the back of my chair.

"Nope, Zelo's just being a weirdo," Minki whispered to me.

"Come on! Secrets, secrets are no fun, unless you share with anyone~" I softly sang, as I poked her shoulder. I could tell Zelo was jealous now. He shot up out of his seat, pulled Minki out of hers, and plopped down next to me.

"You can talk to me!" Zelo muttered as Minki sat down in Zelo's former chair. I grinned.

"Awwww~ You're soo cute, Zelo-kins!" I said in a high pitched soft voice as I snuggled next to him. 

HAHAHAHA!!! THE LOOK ON ZELO'S FACE WAS PRICELESS!! We should go out to places more with this guy! He's fuuuuunny!!
