Good Thing | jaeyong [1]

"I have to go" Taeyong excuses himself from the conversation. He turns away and walks off, leaving Ten staring after him in shock.

Taeyong is barely thinking straight as he enters the clinic and goes straight to Jaehyun's office.

He doesn't have anyone scheduled for another hour. Taeyong was fixing up his schedule yesterday so he made sure to memorise when he was free.

He opens the door without knocking. He is seated behind his desk and chews on the end of his pen as he lifts his gaze to look at the new guest in slight confusion.

Closing the door behind him, Taeyong walks over and takes a seat on the other side of his desk.

"Is everything okay?" He sounds concerned as he places his pen on his desk.

"How soon can you transfer me to Taeil?" The older asks him and he chokes for a brief moment.

"W-What? Uh, I can get you transferred by tomorrow."

One day. Taeyong can wait one day.

"I can wait. No, I will wait" He assures him and Jaehyun's expression grows even more confused.

"Did Jungwoo give you drugs or something? I have no idea what you are saying" The Dr chuckles and scratches the back of his head.

"As you said a psychologist can't date their patient. Well I will wait until we don't have that relationship holding us back anymore"

Taeyong smiles softly as he explains what he is trying to say. Jaehyun's lips curl up into a smile as he leans back into his seat.

"Are you saying you will go out with me?"

"Yes. Hearing Ten confess that he was willing to give us another shot made me realise that I don't love him anymore. It made me realise that I have grown feelings for someone else and I'm pretty sure that someone else is you."

Jaehyun frowns after hearing what Ten said but he reminds himself that Taeyong is confessing to him right now.

"You are pretty sure that I'm the one you have feelings for...You aren't certain?" He teases he older who just rolls his eyes.

"Fine. Don't transfer me then" Taeyong folds his arms over his chest and the Dr hurries to correct himself.

"I'll call Taeil now."

Taeyong smiles, satisfied with this outcome as he stands from the chair and heads to the door.

"One question before you go" Jaehyun calls out, making Taeyong turn to face him again.

"Can I change your contact name to 'Taeyongie' in my phone?" He smiles the smile which reveals all of his dimples.

"Change it to whatever you want. It's your phone" Taeyong tried to act as though he doesn't care what the younger does with his contact names.

Yet on the inside he is screaming.

"I'll call you?" Jaehyun says as more of a question as Taeyong wraps his hand around the door handle.

"Please do."

"Why are you so happy all of a sudden?" Yuta asks as he hands his friend a bowl of soup.

"Did Jaehyun give you some kind of happy drug?"

"No. Why does everyone think that I'm on drugs today?" Taeyong scowls and sighs as he begins to eat the soup.

"Probably because you've gone from being a depressed bean to how you were before your break up." Yuta speaks softly.

"I had a good day. Things might just be changing for me, Yuta. The rain might just be clearing away." Taeyong states and his friend smiles at him.

"I really hope it is."

Suddenly Taeyong's phone begins to ring. He pulls it out of his pocket and sees Jaehyun's caller ID flash up on the screen.

Yuta also sees and noticed how Taeyong smiles, seeing the name.

He places down his bowl and hurries to take the phone from Taeyong's hands.

He answers it and places it against his ear.

"Yuta!" Taeyong yells and tries to snatch it back but Yuta manages to dodge him as he runs away with it, locking himself in his room.

"Dr Jung" He says into the phone.

"Yuta? Is Taeyong not around?" Jaehyun asks politely.

"He is. Actually he is trying to kick down my door" Yuta states simply.

"I'm going to kill you!" Taeyong continues to bang on the door as he tries to open it again and again.

"I have a question to ask dear Dr. Jung" Yuta ignores his friend and walks over to sit on his bed.

"Go ahead" Jaehyun sounds calm on the other end.

"Are you planning on dating Taeyong?" Yuta asks and the bashing on his door suddenly stops.

"If this is to tell me to back off then I'm afraid you have wasted your breath. I like your friend whether you like it or not" The Dr says firmly.

"I'm actually encouraging you to do so" Yuta admits. There is a brief moment of stunned silence on the other end as Jaehyun lets the words sink in.

"For the last two months I've been following Taeyong to different bars and clubs so he can drink himself away. Then I proceed to safely bring him home. For two months I've seen him being an absolute mess and it has been destroying me to see him like that. Yet when he started seeing you at the clinic, I could see his normal self slowly returning. He was slowly becoming happy again and was slowly forgetting Ten's betrayal. So please Jaehyun, take care of him."

"I don't know what to say" Jaehyun mutters and Yuta smiles to himself as he heads to the door.

"Well you don't need to say anything to me" He opens the door to reveal Taeyong standing there, waiting quietly.

"Yuta" The older begins but is silenced when Yuta places the phone on his ear.

"Jaehyun ah" Taeyong greets the Dr as Yuta just smiles and walks away.

"Taeyong, he gave you your phone again" Jaehyun sounds surprised.

"Yeah, he did. I heard every word he said. I'm sorry if he freaked you out."

"He didn't freak me out. I'm a psychologist. I've heard a lot worse. But it makes me glad to know that I'm helping you Taeyong. That's all I've wanted to do since the first day that I met you." Taeyong can hear the smile in Jaehyun's tone.

"Jae-" he is interrupted as the younger continues to speak.

"But that brings up one of my biggest fears right now."

"What is that?" Taeyong walks into Yuta's room, locking he door behind him as he goes and sits on the bed.

"We met because you were miserable and drunk. Right now you probably like me because I am helping you get better. I am your life support right now. But what will happen once you've been fixed? I won't be that life support anymore."

Jaehyun takes a shaky breath.

"I'm scared that you won't like me once you are all healed."
