It had been like that for the whole week. Junhui had been finding Minghao and Jisu together in places that were rather secluded. Places that people would usually go to avoid being spotted.

Perfect places to be cheating on someone.

Junhui was fed the hell up but he refused to bring it up to Minghao because he wanted for him to bring it up himself. Jun didn't want to jump to conclusions about anything without knowing the details first so he did his best not to punch Jisu square in the neck. It was hard though.

Just to make sure nothing funny was going on, he would follow them to every location. It was starting to anger him even more that Minghao was spending more time with Jisu than with him. He was even making up terrible lies so that he could sneak out to meet up with Jisu. The only reason Juhui knew this was because not only did Seokmin spot them one day, but Junhui witnessed this first hand. He saw them through the window of a coffee shop when he was out getting groceries and Minghao told him he was going in for a checkup not even 20 minutes beforehand. It was seriously getting to be too much.

"Hey, Jun. I'm gonna go out and get some icecream. Do you want me to bring you something, besides icecream? I might take a little longer because I have other errands to run, ok?" Minghao told Junhui energetically. Junhui looked up from his homework assignment at Minghao.

"Do these errands involve cheating on me?" Junhui mumbled, only loud enough for himself to hear. Minghao tilted his head in confusion.

"What?"

"Nothing. Go ahead. And don't bother with the icecream, I'm going out." Junhui sighed. Minghao's smile dropped a little but nevertheless remained.

"Oh.. Well, where are you going?" Minghao asked curiously, plopping himself down onto Junhui's work station. Junhui stood up and made room for himself inbetween Minghao's thin legs, Minghao wrapping his arms around the other.

"Don't worry about it but I won't be back until Monday." Junhui informed.

Minghao pouted. "So you're leaving me alone?"

"It's not like you care when you leave me alone to be with him." Junhui thought.

"Sorry." Junhui apologized. He was about to back away from Minghao when he was pulled back.

"It's okay, I'll miss you though." Minghao hugged Junhui tightly. Junhui just quickly patted his back, not bothering to hug back properly, which worried Minghao all the more.
He was starting to think something was wrong but he figured he would just tell him once he was comfortable enough.

"Okay... could you let go now? My ride is here." Junhui abruptly pulled away from Minghao, causing the other to nearly fall from the desk. He caught his balance and stood up with Junhui's help.

"Oh. Sorry, ba- Minghao." Junhui rubbed Minghao's shoulder. He gave Minghao a weak smile. He really didn't want to act like an asshole towards Minghao but everytime they were within a close proximity he would think of him doing that with Jisu. He hated that he didn't know what was up. He wanted to believe that nothing was going on between the two but he couldn't stop the thoughts.

Minghao also gave a small smile and leaned in to kiss Junhui on the lips but Junhui moved his face and gave Minghao a kiss on the forehead instead.

Minghao was obviously disappointed  but couldn't say anything because Junhui had already went out the door.        

Minghao didn't understand what had gotten into Junhui at all. Recently, he noticed that Junhui was more moody and more distant. It honestly annoyed him. He just wanted to love and be loved by his boyfriend but how could he do that when his mans was ignoring him. It was seriously frustrating. Whatever the problem was, he hoped that Junhui wasn't losing interest in him. He hoped that Junhui wouldn't stop loving him because he knew that he would never stop loving Junhui.

...

"Wow, Junhui really is garbage. You should just go out with me. You know it's not to late to reconsider." Jisu casually told Minghao as he shoved a spoonful of icecream in his mouth.

They had met up at the icecream shop after Minghao went to the store to buy somethings for himself and Junhui. Originally he was just going to the store to pick up a few things for a surprise he was planning but to avoid any suspicion from Junhui he also said he would get some icecream. Later once he had left, his mood was ruined so he decided to call Jisu and talk to him about his situation. Despite the callous things that Junhui said about Jisu, Minghao found him to be a pretty decent guy. They actually became pretty good friends over the past week.

Minghao must admit that he was a bit nervous when Jisu went up to him while he was in the car. He thought that Jisu would try to assault him or try something but to his surprise, he sincerely apologized and asked him of a favor to which Minghao happily obliged.

He wanted dating advice.

"Ha. Ha. Very funny." Minghao playfully rolled his eyes. "No but something is seriously wrong. And I don't know what." Minghao pouted while laying his head down on the table. Jisu sighed, setting his cup of icecream down.

"You want me to help you figure out the reason he's being an ass?"

Minghao lifted his head and sat back up, resting his head on his hands that were propped against the table. "Yes please."

"Well, let's see." Jisu hummed out, looking around the shop. "How exactly has he been acting?"

"He acts like he doesn't even want to see me and avoids me." Minghao recalls. "He even recently started moving further away from me in bed."

"Whoa, I don't really want to hear that." Jisu shook his head showing a rather disgusted expression.

"That's not what I meant." Minghao sighed. "And he gets all weird everytime I tell him I'm going somewhere. Just like earlier when I told him-"

"Wait, hold up." Jisu widened his eyes, looking like he just made a brilliant scientific discovery. "That's it!"

"What?"

"You're cute, Minghao but an even bigger idiot." Jisu shook his head. Minghao became red out of embarrassment.
"Junhui is obviously jealous." He said proudly.

"J-jealous? Why would he be-" It didn't take long before Minghao realized what he meant. "Ooooh."

"Yeah, you get me now?" Jisu went back to eating his icecream that was a bit melted. Minghao nodded and was about to take a scoop out of his sweet treat when he realized something else. He soon became teary eyed and stood from his seat. Jisu looked at him, wondering what was happening.

"Hey what's wron-"

"So then, this is your fault then." Minghao spoke in a fragile, voice. Jisu didn't get at what he was trying to say.
"You're the one who is making Junhui not want to love me anymore. You're the one who's making him think that I don't love him but I do love him!" Minghao started hitting Jisu in the arm, as he had now been standing as well.

Seeing as Minghao was causing a scene, Jisu grabbed his arm away from him and placed his hands on Minghao's shoulders.

"Hey. Hey! Junhui does love you and he won't leave you." Jisu tried his best to comfort the guy. "You just have to calm down and talk to him. Tell him the truth."

Minghao wiped the tears from his eyes and looked into Jisu's.
"But didn't you say-"

"Yes I told you to keep this a secret because it was kind of embarrassing  but I see how much this is tearing you up so I suppose it's alright to tell him." Jisu sighed, letting his hands drop from Minghao's shoulders. "It's the least I can do with all of the help you have given me. I think it's finally getting them to notice me."

"Really! Thank you, Jisu!" Minghao slung his arms around Jisu and it was so sudden that Jisu almost stumbled but nonetheless he hugged back. They had their little moment before letting go but not before a certain some witnessed the whole thing.
