Jinki woke up earlier than usual, as Minho quietly talked him awake. Seeing Minho's smile first thing in the morning sure was nice.
"I was just about to leave, I thought I'd say goodbye" Minho was sitting partially on the bed and partially on air.
Jinki smiled at him, "Good morning, hope you have a good day" Minho chuckled at Jinki's sleepy voice.
"Good morning, I'll see you when I get home" He leaned down and pecked Jinki's forehead.
"See you then" Jinki sat up, pulling Minho into a kiss, proud of himself for catching Minho off guard.
It was giggles and goodbyes from there, and Jinki thinks that the best way he's ever woken up. Although it doesn't take long for him to fall back asleep, only to be reawakened by his alarm a few hours later.
He had made a sort of routine for himself, just to get him into the groove of things. It worked for him, as he found himself leaving right on time, arriving around the same time as Jonghyun.
"You're early" Jonghyun smiled as he unlocked the door.
"I slept well" Jinki told him as they walked into the shop.
"Hey, there have been reports of someone missing, I haven't read the name but he lived in the same complex as you, it's not Minho is it?" Jonghyun asked worried and Jinki shook his head.
"I was with Minho all night, do they think it was a runaway?" Jinki as worried as he thought he'd be.
"Yeah, they think he just picked up and left, hasn't been seen since Thursday" Jonghyun explained and Jinki just nodded.
"Well, I have some news to share too" Jinki smiled and Jonghyun raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? Is it good news?" Jonghyun asked and Jinki pretended to think about it.
"You'll find out when Taemin gets here" Jinki could hear the scoff before Jonghyun did it.
"Now I'm curious!" Jonghyun whined and Jinki just giggled.
"Well, you might not have to wait that long" Jinki gestured to the door, where Taemin was approaching.
Jonghyun hurried to open the door for him, and everyone exchanged greetings.
"So, you guys remember those two suicides from earlier this week?" Taemin asked and Jinki straightened up.
"The ones they thought might have been murders?" Jinki asked and Taemin nodded, Jinki's stomach twisted.
"They stopped investigating, found digital suicide notes for both of them and just let it go" Taemin told them and Jinki sighed in relief.
"It's still tragic, but at least the families don't have to search for someone to bring to justice" Jonghyun spoke up.
"Well, the families aren't convinced, but no one will follow up now" Taemin added, and this time Jonghyun sighed, "One was wrapped up in drugs and the other was human trafficking, I don't think anyone really wants to believe they were murdered anyway"
"Less work for the police, I'm sure they enjoy that" Jonghyun said and the two of them agreed, "Now, tell us the good news Jinki, I'm sure we could all use a pick me up now" Jonghyun smiled at him.
"Well, a certain someone may have confessed to me, and that certain someone may or may not be my boyfriend now" Jinki smiled as he spoke.
"You're dating Minho?!" Jonghyun asked and Jinki nodded, "I'm so happy for you!
But when do I get to meet him?"
"Soon, I promise" Jinki chuckled at his friend.
"You're dating your roommate, it's almost as if you're already married" Taemin joked.
"He better treat you right, does he know you haven't really dated before?" Jonghyun asked and Jinki nodded.
"Yes, he knows I sheltered myself. He's really sweet to me, he woke me up before he left for work today because he wanted to hear my voice before he left" Jinki loved thinking about the memory.
"He better not ruin your first dating experience" Taemin spoke up, "Because he'd have the two of us after him"
"I'll go to you two first if anything happens" Jinki told them, "He's taking me out to eat tonight for our first date, he promised somewhere fancy"
"Kibum's taking me out tonight too, we could make it a double date if you want" Jonghyun suggested, but Jinki shook his head.
"I'm still wary of Kibum, I don't want to feel like I'm on a date with him" Jinki explained and Jonghyun nodded.
"I totally understand" Jonghyun reassured him.
"I hope your dates go well" Taemin smiled at the two.
"And what are your plans for tonight?" Jonghyun asked and Taemin shrugged.
"I don't know, might buy some takeout and pass out, nothing too exciting" Taemin shrugged, "I'm not a really exciting person"
"The shop isn't open on Sundays right?" Jinki chimed in and Jonghyun shook his head, "Do you know if Kibum works tomorrow"
"I don't think he does, what are you planning?" Jonghyun asked with a smile.
"Maybe we could all hang out, you could both finally meet Minho" Jinki suggested.
The two looked at each other and then nodded at Jinki.
"Just tell me when and where" Taemin said and Jinki smiled.
"I'll text you the details"
