"Eunjin?"
Ten stayed there staring for a moment.
"Who is at the door?" Taeyong yells from the living room. When Ten doesn't answer Taeyong gets up and heads over to the door.
Taeyong appears behind Ten and sees who is at the door.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Taeyong charges forward past Ten. He moves out of the apartment and Ten follows after him quickly closing the door behind him.
Taeyong is chasing Eunjin backward. "Do you know what you did? Do you know the pain that Ten has been in because of you?" Taeyong is almost yelling at her.
Ten reaches forward to grab at Taeyong and tries to pull him back. He ends up having to grab Taeyong around the waist an haul him back. "Taeyong calm down."
"No. I will not be calm. She blabbed her mouth and all the trouble it caused you! And she had no repercussions! Then she thinks it's okay to come to our house? Well it's not okay!" Taeyong struggles to get out of Ten's grip. Eunjin is against the wall. Her eyes look scared of Taeyong's anger.
Ten has to shove himself in between Eunjin and Taeyong. He turns to Taeyong and grabs his face in both of his hands. "Taeyong look at me," Taeyong tries to take Ten's hands away but Ten grabs his face firmly. "Taeyong. Look."
Taeyong finally tears his angry eyes away from Eunjin. As he looks at Ten his anger fades.
"Taeyong, its fine. She didn't mean to." Ten looks deep into Taeyong's eyes. Taeyong reaches up and holds Ten's wrist.
"Why are you standing up for her? After what she did? Even when she showed up here?" Taeyong questions.
"She is just some silly girl who said something she shouldn't have. Let it go." Ten subconsciously starts to circle his thumb on Taeyong's cheek in an effort to soothe him. Taeyong leans his head into Ten's hand.
"Okay," Taeyong pulls Ten's hands off his face and looks back at Eunjin. "What do you want?"
But Eunjin only has eyes for Ten. "Ten? I miss you." She starts to reach out towards Ten but Taeyong pushes her hand away.
"You should be lucky I am letting you talk to him, don't push it." Taeyong sounds angry again.
Eunjin glares angrily back at Taeyong. "I don't care that you are gay, I still love you Ten." She turns to smile at Ten again. "Can't you give me another chance? I think that I can make you happy."
Taeyong starts to says something but Ten grabs his hand and squeezes it to shut him up.
"Eunjin, It's just not possible, not then, not now. You need to move on. Please don't come here again. If you do we will call the police." Ten is still holding Taeyong's hand and Eunjin stares at their intertwined hands with malice in her face. "It's time for you to go."
Now it is Eunjin's turn to be in a rage. "You will regret this! I don't know what you see in him. He doesn't know you like I do. He can't love you like I do."
Her words shocked Ten. She probably didn't mean them like he was thinking but her words still struck home. She meant that her love would always be greater than Taeyong's. but Ten thought about how Taeyong really could never love Ten. It might seem like it was all fine and dandy now but soon Taeyong would want to move on and Ten would be left alone with a broken heart. His heart sank at the thought. It would only get harder for Ten when it all ended the more this continued on. The more he fell in love with Taeyong the harder he would fall after all this ended. And it would end eventually.
"What do you think you are saying? Leave now." Taeyong steps in front of Ten almost like his is trying to shield him.
Eunjin glares at Taeyong as she makes her way to the elevators. Once she has stepped in and they heard the familiar ding of the doors closing, Taeyong turns to Ten.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah I am fine. Just tired. We should go back inside. Maybe head to bed. It is really late." Ten turns away from Taeyong and towards the door. As he opens the door he hears the scrambling of bodies on the other side of door. When they enter in Jaemin is pretending to put on his shoes. But he is has the left shoe in his hand and his right foot up to put it on.
Ten chuckles to himself before heading into the living room where the rest of the team is also failing at looking inconspicuous. Johnny's Magazine was upside down and Yuta was just twittling his thumbs.
"It's been a long day and I am going to head to bed." Ten tells them before he makes his way to his room.
After Taeyong hears the door shut he lets out a breath and sits down on the couch.
"What was that all about?" Asks Jeno.
"You guys know that someone released the info that Ten was gay to the public right? Well that was her. And apparently she is nutts and is still in love with Ten!" Taeyong leans his head back.
"Are you jealous?" Yuta looks over at Taeyong.
"Jealous? Pfft, Why would I be jealous? She has nothing on him. The both of us want her out of our lives." Taeyong rubs at his eyes. "You know I should head to bed as well."
"Okay goodnight Jealous boy!" teases Johnny.
"I'm not Jealous!" Taeyong says before he leaves to his room with Ten.
