markhyuck-It is never too late

Chap 4: Jeno, Jeno, Jeno?

Jeno

    I thought about escaping home years ago. My family never appreciated me, they hated my personality. I never ever wanted to stay with them, but until last night I came to my senses. As I stood there outside on the cold streets.  I didn't think about the things that could happen to me after my parents kicked me out.
        I felt horrifying being alone though, I felt lost, and scared. I don't know where I could have been if Donghyuck left me there. But I'm lucky to have a friend like him, he is the sweetest person I met thus far. Donghyuck's parents don't care about me staying in his room, they have very little communication with their son.
   
     I want to help him too, I discovered yesterday that he recently broke up with his boyfriend. Tomorrow is going to be Sunday and the day I found him wandering outside was yesterday night.  This Saturday has to be a special one for him. He saved me from disgrace and he is taking care of me. I need to pay this off, but how?

I took all my stuff out of my backpack and placed them on an empty corner at the back of his room, it's already late. We slept late yesterday and both of us woke up at 1:00 pm. I'm just sitting down on my bed, thinking.

Thinking.

   I have to think of something to do. Suddenly I can hear the doorknob clicking and Donghyuck comes in the room. "Umm, Donghyuck, ummm.....can I ask you something?" I mentally slap myself, what type of question is that. I just made a stupid move, Donghyuck giggles and smiles at me while responding my already wasted question, "Of course dummy, you already asked one though!" He laughs even more, I flash him my famous eye smile, to show him that I did it "intentionally", he smiles at me again and lays on my bed. Donghyuck silently observed the ceiling above us which was a dark shade of blue. It seemed like the night sky. I turn to face him again and I unintentionally stared at him, thinking about the things we might have in common, but the truth is that I don't even know anything about him.
  I've got an idea!

I should invite him to come to the movies with me! We can probably have fun. "Donghyuck! Would you like to go to the movies with me?!" I am hopeful that he will say, yes. It would be a chance to get closer to him. "Jeno....I think...." I feel very nervous, I don't even know why. "I think that, that is a great idea! But what movie should we watch?!" I let out a loud sigh of relief, he didn't deny. For a moment in my life I felt like a winner, I never felt this happy about something before.
       Donghyuck stands up and brings his laptop from the desk in the corner of his room. We looked up for the movies that were out today. It took us an hour to find the best one and both of us agreed on which movie to watch. We take our time in deciding what type of clothes to wear. It is September and I decide to wear something warm. I finished choosing when I saw myself wearing tight black jeans and a white hoodie. Donghyuck came out of the bathroom looking cuter than ever, with his light pink hoodie and his white shorts that made him seem naked from the hip below. He looks so cute, I am astonished by his cuteness.
"Stop looking, let's get moving" Donghyuck pushes me out through the door and into the streets, he pulls me inside the theater swiftly. I got dizzy because of all the action. But Donghyuck looks happy and energetic again, I feel happy again too, so happy I almost wanted to throw up.

Donghyuck

He is the reason why I felt like life is an adventure again. Jeno made me feel excited to know what will happen next and that is why I'm acting so immaturelly inside the theater right now. I pay attention to the movie but as time passes by it gets boring and I am looking for a way to entertain myself.

Jeno. 

He watches the movie completely focused, as I lean onto him and lick his ear. I want to play around with him just like children do. He squirms in his seat from the sudden touch and glares at me with a "why you do that" face. I can't contain myself and I burst out laughing, his face is just so funny and cute. He is just so cute. Did I just call him, cute?! Maybe it's just me thinking very optimistically about my new friend.....right? Jeno and I walk back home which is 2 blocks away from the  movie theater. I take my phone out and start listening to music.  "Ugh! I forgot my earphones!" I whine angrily, jeno laughs and tickles my left side which makes me smile. I'm going to listen to my favorite kpop group, NCT out loud then. Who cares about the people who don't appreciate their music. I love it so....here it goes my number one favorite....for now, "My page" by NCT Dream. "OH, MY LORDJEEZUSCHRIST! YOULISTENTONCT?!" Jeno breathes deeply after the very excited and fast sentence he said to me. I felt confused at first, but as soon as I separated the words he told me, the corners of my lips lift upwardly. "You know them!" I smile even more while confiming that he knows who they are.

    Turns out that he loves them as much as I do! Jeno interrupts my thoughts and starts to ask me a zillion of questions about how much I know them to see how loyal I am to them. All those questions are super easy to respond of course, he is shocked to know all the information I knew about NCT. I feel proud of myself. We reach my house and we go inside my room, what should we do now?

      Donghyuck sits on his bed at the right side of his room. He pulls my arm ordering me to sit next to him, he turns my face with his fingers so thay I could face him. I was observing the plushies he had in a trash bag before he turned my head to face him. I can feel the heat itching my face as I look into his eyes.
 
  Donghyuck caresses my left cheek with his thumb and then hugs me tightly. He doesn't lose a tint grip on me, but he squeezes me more. Seconds pass by and he let's go of me slowly. He tells me to go to sleep and to relax. I do as he orders. Donghyuck sounds tired, several minutes later you could hear his silent snores. The dark room forces me to shut my eyes, and I too drift to sleep.
