"How did you and Johnny get together?"
Doyoung gulped. He wasn't expecting this kind of question. He hesitated a bit before telling the story.
"J-Johnny was always one of-of the p-popular guys at school, ma-making both girls and guys fall fo-for him, m-me included." Jaehyun frowned but kept quiet, listening intently.
"One d-day I was crying in the j-janitor's closet because some others locked me up 'f-for fun' and Jo-Johnny found me. He told me he-he would always be on m-my side and since I had a huge c-crush I believed everything he sa-said." he paused for a moment, staring at the ground, remembering the events as his eyes started watering.
"As we started ta-talking more, he eventually asked me to be his bo-boyfriend. That's how it all ha-happened." he finished quickly, not meeting the others eyes. He swiftly rubbed his eyes with the back of his sleeve.
This was only about half of the story, but Doyoung decided it was enough for now. He'd tell Jaehyun the rest eventually.
Jaehyun furrowed his eyebrows. He knew something was off.
The bunny's story didn't explain why he was so scared of the giant, or why Johnny was so controlling over him.
"That's not all, is it?"
Doyoung flinched. The other saw right through him and it made him feel guilty for not telling the whole thing.
But he couldn't. Not yet.
"I'm s-sorry. I'll tell you some other t-time." he mumbled.
"It's alright. I won't force you to do anything." Jaehyun assured and ruffled the other's hair.
Silence engulfed them for a few moments. The ice cream was long gone and the two boys were both absent minded, not minding the silence.
"Hey Doyoung?" Jaehyun called the other quietly, who raised his head to look at him, signaling that he was listening.
Jaehyun took the older's hands in his gently before continuing.
"No matter what happens, I'll protect you, I promise."
They stared at each other for a moment. Doyoung was supposed to feel happy now -feel loved- but he didn't.
He felt a sickening feeling arise in the pit of his stomach.
He didn't want Jaehyun to set himself into danger just because Doyoung couldn't protect himself.
He didn't want Jaehyun to get hurt by Johnny.
He didn't want Jaehyun to face his father.
He didn't want Jaehyun to protect him.
"Jaehyun, y-you really don't have t-to..."
"Shush. I already promised, and I promise I'll keep my promise." he showed the other a thumbs up with a dorky smile.
Doyoung smiled lightly, but it didn't last long. His smile was soon replaced with an expression of shock and panic as he noticed Jaehyun's face got closer and closer, the guy himself still holding the bunny's hands.
Instead of meeting Doyoung's gaze, Jaehyun's eyes traveled downwards. The bunny's lips looked so soft, slightly agape and pink.
Doyoung's hands started trembling as he never could've predicted something like this, he was taken aback.
What was he doing??
Feeling the older's shaking hands, Jaehyun backed off a bit and looked him in the eyes. Both boys could honestly get lost in each other.
Jaehyun was the real human form of a Disney prince in Doyoung's eyes. He was nice, charming, and always knew how to cheer people up. He was quite attractive as well.
Doyoung was more of a cute innocent bunny in Jaehyun's eyes. Doyoung has already been hurt way too much and it shatters Jaehyun's heart whenever he thinks about it. No one deserves something like that, especially not someone like Doyoung, someone who is already quite insecure and fragile.
Yeah, fuck that whole 'I thought I was straight' thing. He was whipped.
Jaehyun will make sure to show him true happiness.
But right now, Doyoung couldn't be more unsure about what is going to happen next. Not until Jaehyun asked him.
"Can I kiss you?"
