Jeno

I'll admit it, the café was pretty fun, but we weren't done yet were we.

"So where do you plan on taking me next Renjun." I questioned staring at the scenery on our walk, I've never been this way before so everything was unfamiliar but it was also quite captivating.

"Oh you'll see when we get there, keep your curiosity to yourself for now Jeno." you noted with sarcasm.

Asshat, I was just asking.

The walk was quiet, reminding me of the time when Jaemin walked me home. Oh gosh we're going to his home aren't we. I decided not to let it bother me and take in the rest of the walk.

The trees were decorated with orange and some light brown leaves, letting people know fall is here. The air was definitely dry, and the sky was a light gray color. Almost seeming like it was gonna rain soon. The breeze flowing through was nice, but looking over to you, you were trying to hid your shivering. You were also the idiot that never wore his blazer, but because I was a man, I took mine off, throwing it over your shoulders.

You stopped walking once as the material made contact with your skin. You gave me a look of confusion, which then turned into a smile and you continued walking.

And as I guessed it. We were at your house. Stopping in front of the tan house, you smiled "Come Jeno, it's my turn to invite you over."

Everything in your house could be described as boring or white. There wasn't much color, cream walls, white furniture, birch colored tables and chairs, and the kitchen was even white with a hint of gray.

"Wow Renjun, your house is what I'd call really boring." I spoke eyeing everything with the least bit of interest in my eyes. You just laughed at my comment. "Come upstairs, we'll hang out in my room."

Ha, your room, I'm sure you and Jaemin did the same exact things in there as you both did in his house.

And now here where it all changes, when we walked in your room everything was dark. The walls painted a dark shade of blue, the bed covered in black, pretty sure you had blackout curtains, your dresser and nightstand were a deep shade of brown, and the flooring was all wood.

"Ok maybe I was wrong, your room isn't what I'd call boring." That made you laugh even harder. "Gosh Jeno, you really just assume I'm boring and mean huh?" A smirk shot up your face.

I looked down feeling a bit embarrassed with myself.

You noticed my feeling and put a hand on my shoulder saying "It's okay, you're not the only one, let's sit." Your smile was sweet.

You lead me to your bed, and the moment we sat I started remembering everything with Jaemin. His sweetness, his nice smiles, then his story, then him looking sad, him looking sad because of you, and then how he never let go of my hand until we made it downstairs.

"Is your mood down now cause I called you out or what?" you asked. I wiped the thoughts of Jaemin out of my head and put on a smile. "No it's okay, but if you don't mind, can I ask you about something." "Anything."

"What was your relationship like with Jaemin." and then your face darkened. "Jeno, if you came here to just talk about him then leave." "Ah no I'm sorry" I lowered my head.

All I'm doing is embarrassing myself, Renjun why did you invite me.

You put your hand over mine reminding me of Jaemin again. "Jeno, it's just you and I, please try not to think about him."

I chuckled at your comment.

Just you and I huh?

"Ok, then let's talk about me." you raised your brows.

"Why do you wanna be friends with me."

Tell me Renjun, I'm dying to know.

"Hmm, I guess I really don't know a whole lot about you Jeno, but I know you're the type of person to chase after something he wants."

I thought we weren't talking about Jaemin.

"And I have to admire that about you. You're dedicated and I like that. I can also sense that you have this really caring side to you and you'd be willing to do anything for the people you love, and that's something anyone could admire."

"I'm surprised, you're better than I thought." I spoke a little shocked earning a chuckle from you. "Jeno, you act like I don't pay attention to people." your smile was cute.

"Ok I'm sorry once again, I'll stop judging you from now on okay." I stretched my hand out. You were hesitant to grab it at first but then went for it and gave me a slow handshake as if you were regretting your decision.

"Alright then Jeno, now it't my turn, tell me things you like about me." You gave me a serious look not wanting any bullshit from me.

"Well you know what Renjun, too bad I don't observe you all the time so I guess I really can't tell you anything I like about you."

Your head went down, sadness taking over your face.

"But" I grabbed your hand forcing you to look at me again. " We have so many other days that if you want, let's hang out again, and by that time I'll definitely say something I like about you."

Your face lit bright with a smile and you embraced me harder than anyone has. "I'd love that" you whispered in my ears, sending tingles down my neck.

It got late and I had to leave. Today was better than I thought and I genuinely wanted to spend another day with you. You also had to make sure I didn't leave with out another tight hug.

I wasn't even ten seconds out of your house and my phone vibrated notifying me I got a text.
