fourteen.

"I fucking knew it." Ten exclaimed, grabbing Yeseul's wrist. "That's it. We're leaving,"

"Ten, wait," Yeseul winced, trying to pull him back. "It's not what you think -"

"It's not what I think?! He almost kissed you and you let him!" Ten's voice was rising.

Yuta tried to intervene, "Ten, don't yell at her like that."

"Like what?! Don't you dare tell me what to do hyung!" Ten snapped back, pushing Yuta away. "She's my responsibility! Not yours. You already threw her away, so why are you butting in?"

"Ten, that's enough." Taeyong's voice was heard from the door. Johnny and Jaehyun were behind him. "If you want to make a scene at this party, don't. Give some respect to your Taeil hyung."

"Or what? What will you do if I make a scene here?" Ten replied, feeling his blood boil. He was really angry and Yeseul could sense it.

"Stop it, come on, let's get you home -"

Ten cut Yeseul off by pulling her closer. He then pointed at Yuta who had his eyebrows furrowed at the boy, "You wanted to kiss her right? Then let me show you how a boyfriend kisses his girl."

"Ten - don't -!" Yeseul was about to protest when Ten put his lips on hers. She tried to remove himself, but Ten was stronger, so she had no choice but to kiss back.

Jaehyun eyed Yuta who was clenching his fists, "Hyung..."

Yuta heard his younger brother and slowly walked out, banging the door when he left.

Yeseul being with Ten, Yeseul holding hands with Ten - that he can tolerate. But it's not really easy seeing the girl you love kiss someone else.

Ten let go of Yeseul and smirked, "Much better than Yuta hyung, right?"

"Ten, you dick!" Johnny suddenly exclaimed, holding Ten's collar. "You went too far this time!"

Ten balled his fists, "I went too far? He almost kissed Yeseul!"

"You should've just let him," Jaehyun whispers, not looking at Ten.

Ten was about to punch him when Yeseul stood in between them, "Ten, stop! Why are you acting this way? They're your friends!"

"I don't need friends who don't support me in what I do,"

"Then we don't need you," Johnny said, letting go of Ten's collar. "Starting now, you're off the team."

Ten scoffed, "Just for that I'm off the team? That's so petty -"

It happened so quick that Yeseul didn't have time to react. Ten punched Johnny on his face, the latter stumbling on the ground.

"Ten, that's enough!" Yeseul says, grabbing his hand and facing Taeyong and the others, "Sorry for the trouble we've caused."

The couple walked out while Taeyong pushed his hair back a bit, "Where's Yuta?"

Jaehyun shrugs, "He didn't say anything,"

Johnny massaged his chin, a bit of blood on his lip, "When I see Ten again, I'm going to kick him so bad that he can't walk anymore."

Taeyong sighed, and patted Johnny's shoulder, "Tell Taeil hyung to meet me at the diner."

.·:*¨¨*:·. .·:*¨¨*:·.

Taeyong found Yuta drinking some soju in their favorite diner to hang out in. 30 minutes later, Taeil also arrived.

"I had to tend to Johnny first," Taeil said, sitting down. "Sorry, I'm late,"

Taeyong shook his head as he pointed at Yuta, "Nothing happened so far. He's just been drinking,"

Yuta gulped down the last bottle and faced the two, "You guys are here again?"

"Yuta, you need to get Yeseul back." Taeyong suggests, grabbing the bottle from him.

Yuta's laughter filled the room, "Can't you see? She likes Ten now and she's happy. That's all I want."

"But she's not." Taeil argues. He knew Yeseul hasn't fallen for Ten yet because if she did she wouldn't have said those words which Taeil overheard before coming here.

And Yuta deserves to know this.

"Ten, let's break up," Yeseul says, walking out of Taeil's house. They were on their way to Ten's car when she dropped the bomb.

"What?" Ten stopped in his tracks. "Am I hearing right?"

Yeseul nods, "You are. I'm sorry Ten, I just couldn't do this anymore. I don't like you like that.."

Ten chuckled, but it was the kind of laugh that was mocking her, "You know what? Fine - I never liked you anyway,"

He stepped in his car as he drove away leaving Yeseul to sit in the streets as she cried her eyes out whispering Yuta's name.
