Crossing The Line (fanfic) ~ Completed

14. Jia Jun

Jia Jun felt as if he was struck with an arrow right through his heart. To say that he was embarrassed would be an understatement of the year. What had suddenly gotten into his dear friend? Jun Zhe had never behaved so wrecklessly toward him until this week. And now out of nowhere Jun Zhe had charged at him like a raging bull and kissed him fiercely. From then on he had started rambling out his secrets one by one.

Dear God!!! Now everyone present in the room knew that he liked Zi Xuan....meaning the entire team. How was he going to look them in the eye and converse with them in the near future. A surge of anger rose in his blood making him want to hit someone or something. He was trying his utmost to calm himself but what he heard next made his heart chill.

"Only if you knew.....It was me who messed around with Yu Hao's uniform. It was me who spiked Yu Hao's water in gym. I did those things only for you Jia Jun......Only for you."

For a minute no one spoke or dared to move but then suddenly Jun Zhe was roughly pulled forward by his collar and was smacked by a fist to his jaw. The sound of the hit resonated in the silent room.

"Zi Xuan....No....." Yu Hao and Cheng En shouted at the same time.

Yu Hao, who stood beside Zi Xuan rushed towards them and tried his best to pull the said guy away from Jun Zhe but it was ineffective. While Cheng En stood behind Jun Zhe trying as well to push Zi Xuan away from the guy kneeling on the floor. Zi Xuan had a tight grip on the collar as he shook Jun Zhe violently.

"How could you do this huh.....how could you? Yu Hao could've died because of you. Because of your foolish actions. Why.....why did you do this? Tell me.....

The manager's reaction surprised everyone. The guy who was always cool and collected was finally brought to his limit. And the reason for this was Yu Hao. Jia Jun knew that Zi Xuan liked Yu Hao.....but to this extent that he was ready to hit someone was what made his heart twist in pain.

Somehow with much effort from Yu Hao, Cheng En and the Wang brothers, they were able to pry Zi Xuan from Jun Zhe leaving the room in hushed silence. In all this mess Jun Zhe never lifted his head, all he did was cry. The awkwardness in the room was broken by Cheng En's voice.

"I think this matter concerns the four of them. It would be best if we let them clear this up in private. So I suggest we leave and give them some space."

Jia Jun let out a troubled sigh. He made a mental note to thank the captain later for this. He was embarrassed as it is hence the suggestion of having only the concerned party in the room was a like a godsend. He felt awful knowing that he was somehow the reason for ruining everyone's fun. All he could do was hang his head in shame as people started emptying the room one by one leaving the four of them alone. But before Cheng En could move out he left a final warning to Jun Zhe.

"Don't you think this is over Jun Zhe. As the captain of the team it is my responsibility to see to it that this whole thing is reported to the coach and the director. So you better be prepared for the consequences of your actions."

As soon as the captain left, the room was once again filled with an awkward silence. Zi Xuan sat on the floor, his upper torso nestled between Yu Hao's legs while the younger guy sat on the living room sofa. Yu Hao had a death grip on Zi Xuan's shoulders in fear that the manager might try to punch Jun Zhe again. Zi Xuan on the other hand was breathing hard, trying to rein in his temper for the sake of his lover.

Watching them together made Jia Jun envious to the point that he felt like smashing the cocktail table. This way if he was  hurt then at least he wouldn't have to dwell on these excruciating feelings that were tearing at his heart. He wanted to plead Zi Xuan like the way Jun Zhe had pleaded with him sometime ago.
