MINA'S POV:

"Okay,but green is one of the most existing colors in the nature why isn't it a basic color?"
He asked me while resting on my lap with his head.

"Melonhead,it's 3 am.Why are you asking me that?"I laughed and looked from my phone to his face.

"Because you made me stay awake!"Jeno pouted and I shook my head,laughing and said:"I am hungry!"

"Mina~I am-Also hungry."He realized and we laughed again.

Quietly we got up and went to the kitchen,trying to not wake up anyone.

In there we found a pizza to bake in the oven and decided that we would eat it.After putting it into the oven,I sat on the counter and came to a realization.

"Taeyong has no right to forbid me something."

"Why do you think that?"

"My dad is his boss.He could get in trouble alone for hitting me."

"Mina,don't trouble him too much.He has been through a lot."

"I have been through a lot too.I just got thrown into this mess full of gang stuff that...I didn't even had the chance to process anything."

Jeno came to me and hugged me."I know and it must've been hard."

"You didn't made it easier,asshole!"I giggled and leaned myself onto his chest.

"Jeno?""Hm?"

"Why are you here?I mean what happened?"My eyes looked softly in his.

"Let's talk about that another time,okay?"He ruffled my hair and gave me a half heartedly smile.

After we had the pizza we went back in my room and decided to sleep but even after a long time,which Jeno already used for sleeping,I was laying awake in my bed,thinking about why Taeyong would forbid a relationship.

I get that it could distract us,but I didn't want to do gang activities for now anyways.I needed Jeno in some absurd kind of way.And I really hoped he felt the same.

As if I got hit by something,I shot up and got out of my bed and quietly ran upstairs to Taeyong's office.

Praying that he wouldn't be here,I went in there and locked the door behind me.

Luckily no one was there,so I put on the light and stared searching the key for the secret safe,hidden behind a picture.I bet Taeyong didn't knew I knew about it but he is bad at hiding and lying.

As expected,he actually hid the key under the carpet beneath his desk.

What an idiot!

Quickly I grabbed it and put of the frame before looking at the safe.As expected the key fit and made the satisfying,unlocked sound.

When I opened it,the complete things inside,made everything in my head click.

-

"I know you'd be here."I heard Johnny say behind me when he came through the door.

"It became my favorite place."I said.

"Where is Jeno?"

"Probably still sleeping.I needed some time alone."

Johnny sat down next to me,letting his legs also tangle down the wall.

"What's the matter,shortcake?"

Before answering,I sighed long before looking at him.

"Did you know that I am Taeyong's sister?Not his real one,but he is also my stepdads son so Taeyong is my stepbrother,my Lee Kyungjoo."

Johnny looked kinda stressed and caught,while I just smiled at him,tears rolling down my face.

"He planned on telling you soon.."

"It's fine."

"No,it's not.He should've told you.He lied to you while you deserved to know all the way."

What Johnny said made sense,but I was just happy,to know he wasn't dead.My eyes twitched back to the family picture that was in the safe.

It showed my mom,Kangjoon,Kyungjoon and me.
It was when we had our first vacation in Tokio,where I and Kyungjoon got close and he treated me like a little sister.

"He loves you."

"I came to the realization as well.He treated me so well,from the first day.He was so overprotective and got mad at Jeno for being rude to me.And now he is mad at Jeno,because I-"

"Because you what.

"Because I fell in love with him."

Johnny chuckled while I blushed.

"Taeyong will understand.He just wants you to be happy."

I nodded.

"Should we go inside?"Johnny stood up and helped me getting up.

Together we went to the main living room,where Doyoung,Jaehyun,Sicheng,Yuta and Taeyong sat.

I immediately walked to Taeyong and just looked at him.Nervously he stood up and looked down.

"Look,Mina,I am,uh-"

I cut him of with hugging him,and saying:"I missed you,Kyungjoon."

Before he hugged me back,I heard him gasp and he started to cry.

"I am so sorry,little.I shouldn't have left you alone,clueless and so young.I should've been there for you."

He cried on my shoulder and I just patted his back."It's fine Kyungie.Just don't ever leave me again.Promise?"

Kyungjoon pulled away and nodded.Seeing the tears on his cheeks,I grabbed his face and wiped them with my thumbs while also starting to cry.

"How about you have a sibling day,with benefits for us?Like you can go to the groceries together and cook together.I am just to lazy."Yuta shrugged while Tae and I nodded.

"Then get changed,little one."Kyungjoon ruffled my hair and smiled and I went downstairs in my room.

When I opened the door,I saw Jeno sitting on my bed,looking at something on his phone."Hey,pumkin.I heard you will spend a day with Taeyong who is actually called Kyungjoon who is your brother."He smiled at me.

"I won't even ask how you know.But yeah,I will.So I need you to leave the room so I can change."I put my hands in my hips and curled my lips upwards.

"I don't mind if you change in here."

"But I do."

"But I don't."

"If you don't get out of the room,no cuddles for the next weeks."

Immediately Jeno jumped up and left my room.

"See you."
