Seungcheol's POV

I couldn't sleep all night long repeating the scenes in my head.
I think maybe I was too hard on Jeonghan when it wasn't really his fault.

"Hyung you look horrible, come eat some soup." told Jihoon from the kitchen

I got up and made my way to the table.
After a while he brought me some soup and sat besides me to eat as well.

"So... you think that Joshua..?"

"He's weird. He gives me this weird feeling in my gut, like he's hiding something behind that angelic smile."

"Why would you think that?"

"He had his fucking face almost shoved in Jeonghan's neck, when he was sleeping! And the  his hand on Jeonghan's waist, caressing it! The way he tried to calm me down like if he had done something wrong and tried to cover it with fake innocence. I don't like it Jihoon, not at all."

"Hyung... maybe you're just, jealous?"

I don't think this is only jealousy.

Jeonghan's POV

"I don't know what happened yesterday... Josh I'm so so sorry." I said for like the fifth time, with puffy eyes and a tired expression.

"You don't have to be sorry sweetie." he said pulling me to a comforting hug. "He doesn't know me and he wants to protect you. It's only natural to be like that."

Why can't Seungcheol be this understanding?

"He still was too mean." I whispered hiding in Joshua's neck.

"Shh let's not think about that." he now placed a kiss on my head and stepped back of the hug while running his fingers through my hair.

"Jeonghan, do you want to get some icecream with me tomorrow night?"

"S-sure!"

"Good, then I'll pick you up at seven. See you tomorrow byebye!"

Back in the house, Seungcheol was waiting for his friend to arrive from college.

As the front door unlocked he shot up from the couch and walked towards the younger.

Jeonghan was shocked to see him there all of a sudden, but even more when the older embraced him tightly, with one hand on his waist and the other latched gently on the back of his head.

"Hannie I'm so so sorry about last night." he said with lips resting on the younger's head, making him able to feel that gardenia scent all over.

Jeonghan chuckled slightly with tears dropping, burying his face on the older's neck.

"You idiot... I'm sorry too." the younger out of pure instinct, not thinking about anything,  kissed lightly Seungcheol's neck before backing away.

"Tomorrow he's coming to pick me up on a date... please don't act out again."

And at that moment Seungcheol felt something inside lose a bit of light.

"Y-yeah sure.. If it makes you happy."

The younger kissed his hyung's cheek with a soft thank you and walked away, leaving Seungcheol with a crushed peace of paper on his hand.
