Jinki found a smile stuck to his face as they finished up at the restaurant.

"Do you wanna grab dessert?" Minho asked, a smile glued to him as well.

"We could get some lava cake to go" Jinki suggested and Minho agreed, ordering that and the check when the waiter came around again.

"So, how was our first date?" Minho held Jinki's hand across the table and Jinki blushed.

"It's not over yet, but so far? It's incredible" Jinki played with Minho's fingers.

"I'm glad, and when we get home, we can snuggle and watch a movie while we eat our dessert" Minho met Jinki's gaze.

"That sounds great" Jinki felt lost in Minho's eyes for a second.

The received their dessert and Minho paid for their food, and the two got ready to leave the restaurant.

"Ah, you go wait outside, I have to use the bathroom" Minho handed the dessert to Jinki.

"Okay, don't be too long, I'll miss you too much" Jinki smiled cutely and Minho smiled back.

They parted ways, And Jinki found a good spot to wait outside of the restaurant. He pulled out his phone for some entertainment as he waited, but he put it back when he heard a familiar voice.

"Jinki, didn't think I'd see you here" Taemin smiled and Jinki was surprised.

"Minho's inside, we just got done eating" Jinki told him, "What are you doing here?"

"I was headed home, just got done with my part-time job" Taemin explained and Jinki nodded.

"You work two jobs?" Jinki hoped the question wasn't rude.

"Yeah, I live alone so I'm the only income, I've got to make it a good one" Taemin moved to lean against the wall beside Jinki, "Can I ask a question?"

"Go ahead" Jinki shrugged.

"Why do you not trust Kibum? I know you said there was an aura and Jonghyun mentioned a nightmare, but there seems to be more to it" Taemin seemed genuinely curious.

"It's a long story, but to sum it up, I thought he may have been responsible for those suicides" Jinki explained, "And then after no sleep, I had a dream of him murdering Minho" Jinki turned to look at Taemin, "Why do you ask?"

"I don't trust him either, something about the way he looked at me, like he was profiling me" Taemin admitted, "I'm sorry you had such a nightmare"

"It's okay, I'm just a little paranoid now. What do you mean by he was profiling you?" It was Jinki's turn to ask questions.

"It was like he was studying everything about me in a few fleeting seconds, and I felt scared, where'd you say he works?" Taemin shuddered at the memory.

"Him and Minho work for a law firm" Jinki answered and Taemin nodded.

"I hope Minho doesn't give me the same feeling" Taemin said.

"He's really different from Kibum, a lot kinder and less intrusive" Jinki smiled at the thought of Minho, "And he should be back by now"

"You want me to stay until he comes back?" Taemin asked and Jinki shook his head.

"If you need to get home, then go ahead, I'll just text him" Jinki replied and Taemin nodded.

The two said their goodbyes, and Jinki pulled out his phone.

Jinki: Is everything okay?

Minho: Yeah, I'll be out in a second

Jinki: Okay, I'll be here

Although he wasn't super satisfied with the answer, at least Minho answered. And thankfully, Minho walked out of the restaurant a few moments later.

"Sorry I took so long" Minho apologized and Jinki reached for his hand.

"You're here now, that's what matters" Jinki smiled at him.

"Now, let's go home" Minho smiled, and the two made their way home, hand in hand.
