time to fix things... well, an attempt

Taeil and Kun were both at a cafe enjoying a time they liked to call 'being away from our annoying children.' Both were laughing at the horrible dad jokes Taeil was telling and looking at pictures on Kun's phone.

"Okay, okay, these are really funny. What did you say they were called again?" Taeil asked holding his notepad and pen close to his face, ready to write.

"Once again, it's called a meme." Taeil nodded his head and neatly wrote the word in his journal of things young people like. They continued laughing at jokes and looking at memes for at least an hour before opportunity walked through the door.

Na Jaemin, all by himself.

Kun did whisper yell to the older to not do anything, but there are only so many words he could use without it being taken as disrespect.

"Jaemin! Come sit with us. Hyung's orders." Jaemin looked to where he heard the familiar voice and mentally groaned, screamed, and cursed.

"Hi."

"Jaemin."

"Sorry, sorry. Hello, Hyungs." Kun knew this would be awkward. It was awkward when looked at him, it's even more awkward now that he's sitting with him.

"Why do you and Jisung argue all the time?" That was certainly not the question Jaemin nor Kun expected Taeil to ask.

"Uhm... I don't really know-"

"Okay then how long have you been arguing?"

"I think it started... Two months? Yeah, two months after we met." Taeil and Kun were left wide eyed.

"How uh, how long have you known each other?" Kun was nervous to here the answer. Jaemin was only eighteen, and Jisung sixteen. Now that Kun thinks about it he's twenty two meaning Jisung was five years younger and- Jaemin! Yes, yes, back to Jaemin.

"Six years. I was twelve and he was ten. The age not the person." Taeil was processing the information. But Kun had already figured it out.

"You two were made to argue with each other." Kun said looking straight into Jaemin's eyes. The younger looked down under the piercing stare.

"Mark said that after he heard us arguing for the seventh time in a day."

"Okay, so what was your first argument?"

"Cutest member of SHINee."

"And you said?"

"Uhm, Key. Who else could ever?"

"Jisung said?"

"Taemin. But Taemin isn't cute. He's sexy. One hundred percent different." Taeil and Kun couldn't help but agree.

"Hyung, who do you think is the cutest?" Jaemin pointedly questioned Taeil.

"Onew." Both of the younger boys' mouths fell open.

"I can't believe either of you. Jonghyun is the cutest member in SHINee." All three boys sat quietly. It was silent for a good eight minutes.

"Ah, sorry. He uh, was." More silence to follow but it was broken by Taeil.

"Alright, Jaemin. So you don't like Jisung and that's-"

"No, no! I didn't mean it. I only said it because I thought he didn't like me." Jaemin sighed, playing with his fingers.

"So you like him?"

"I love him, he's one of my best friends."

"Yet you let something small break you apart." Kun said, placing his head in his hands. Out of nowhere, really just a table beside them, a boy turned to them. The other boy in front of his whisper yelling at him to not interfere.

"Hi, hello. So we've, or more so I, have been listening to your conversation. Sorry, I'm pretty nosy at times. This sounds like a break up but I think you're talking about a friendship, no?" The boy with orange hair, a cute face, an apparently a deep voice with an accent, and freckles asked looking between the three.

"Uh, friendship." Jaemin didn't exactly want to answer. But he didn't want to seem rude either.

"Oh, great," The boy clapped his hands together. "I have two friends just like that. Always arguing, oh and one of them is a Jisung as well, but our other friends figured out how to get them to stop. Wanna know the secret?" The boy, still nameless asked.

"Yes. He does." Taeil nodded.

"Amazing! We just had them remember the reason they became friends!"

"That doesn't sounds too easy.." Kun mumbled.

"Ah, it really is though. We, and let me tell you one of them was- is extremely violent, but we just locked them in a room. With a person to mediate, or anyone who was there when they met. That person will start reminding of when they met." The deep voiced angel smiled. His emphasis on extremely also gave the three a look at how violent his friend is.

"Uh, sorry for him to bother you. He's not normally this nosy." The other boy, with brown curly hair, bowed to them.

"Don't worry, his idea isn't too bad. It could work... Jaemin, is Jisung as violent as he makes his friend sound?" Kun turned from foreign curly haired to Jaemin.

"Uh, no. He just yells, pushes, and scratches." The orange haired boy, who needs a name, laughs.

"My friend likes to make weapons out of anything. Like he almost killed me with a piece of paper."

"Well you can do that with a sheet of-"

"No, I said piece. Like this." The boy tore part of his napkin in half then ripped a piece from one part and showed them.

"Yikes. Does your friend need to see someone? That's kinda very terrifying." This time it was the other boy to laugh.

"We've got him treatment-"

"He spent the night in a cell for assault."

"Once again, yikes." Taeil, Kun and Jaemin were each contemplating outcomes of Jisung and Jaemin mocked in a room together. Every possible scenario was different.

"Well thanks for the idea, uh, what are your names?"

"I'm Felix and he's Chr- Chan."  The orange haired, no longer nameless boy said.

"Cool, I'm Jaemin. That's Taeil Hyung and Kun Hyung." Jaemin said pointing between the two.

"Fabulous. Can I have your Instagram? Just to keep in touch." Felix said while unlocking his phone and not really waiting for an answer when shoving his phone into Jaemin's significantly larger hands. As Jaemin typed his username in, Felix requested that he also put in Jisung's username.

"Done."

"Well Jaemin, it was nice meeting you all, but Felix and I should get going. We have dance practice."

"Oh really? Dance practice for what?"

"We're JYP trainees. Gonna debut pretty soon." Felix smiled and Chan face palmed, probably because they weren't supposed to tell anyone.

"That's cool! Kun Hyung is in NCT."

"I thought he was familiar." Chan said as the two got their things.

"See you around." Felix said one last time before they actually left.

"They were nice."

"Okay, Jaemin. Who was there when you first met Jisung?"

"Chenle introduced us. Mark was also there and this other kid that I'll probably never see again. Actually he was pretty cute when I think abo-"

"You have a boyfriend."

"Oh my god, I'm thinking about someone who was twelve and I have no clue what he looks like now. Plus, I'm madly in love with Jeno."

"Young love is beautiful. But back to he point. Jaemin and Jisung will be locked in Taeyong's apartment alone for an hour."

"Why Taeyong Hyung?"

"You wouldn't dare destroy anything that belongs to that kid." Taeil said.

"Great let's go." And the three left, Jaemin never got his coffee that he had came for but he was sure Taeyong had a coffee machine at his home.
