Something New (OnHo)

All You Do

It was a new day, and the couple had slept in late, but thankfully not too late. They still had time to get ready for their friends to arrive, and Jinki was still so happy that Minho said yes.

"Is that everything?" Minho asked, looking at the table full of snacks.

"I think so, also Jonghyun said he's on his way" Jinki told him, straightening up things.

He smiled when he felt arms wrap around him.

"I can't wait to properly meet your friends" Minho hummed, rocking the two of them.

"They also can't wait to meet you" Jinki replied, placing his hands on Minho's.

"And I just want to be sure, you are okay with Kibum coming over?" Minho asked, and Jinki put a hand on his cheek.

"As long as you two play nice" Jinki answered, but then Minho turned Jinki to face him.

"I'm not worried about that, I'm worried about you. Last night when we ran into him you didn't even talk" Minho took one of Jinki's hands into his, "I just want you to be mentally okay with this"

Jinki gave Minho a loving look, "I want him to come over because I want to stop being scared of him. I don't know whether it'll work or not, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to try"

Minho just smiled at him and moved in for a kiss, and Jinki quickly accepted. The kiss didn't last long as there was a knock on the door. The couple went together to open it, finding Jonghyun smiling at them.

"Hey! Come on in" Jinki smiled and moved so he could walk in.

"I hope I wasn't supposed to bring anything" Jonghyun said as Minho closed the door.

"No, we have plenty" Jinki gestured for him to sit.

The three talked about little things, until another knock came. Minho went to answer it to find an unfamiliar face.

"You must be Taemin" Minho spoke first.

"Yeah that's me, so you're Minho" Jinki heard Taemin's voice and watched as Minho shook his hand.

"Come on in, we're still waiting for Kibum" Minho told him.

"You've got a really nice place" Taemin looked around and Minho shut the door.

"It's pretty nice for an apartment" Minho added.

Taemin joined Jinki and Jonghyun on the couch, and Minho stayed at the door as they waited for Kibum. They expected a knock, but instead heard the door unlock and open.

"Guess who found his spare key" Kibum's voice filled the room.

"I'll take it back then" Minho held out his hand and Kibum dropped the key in it.

"Go ahead, I already made a duplicate" Kibum smiled at Minho.

"There are snacks on the table and drinks in the fridge, help yourself" Jinki spoke up, proud of himself for doing so.

"Sounds great, thanks for inviting me" Kibum looked at Jinki.

A sense of pride washed over Jinki as he smiled in Kibum's direction, instead of looking away. Kibum grabbed a bowl of chips, then sat in the armchair near Taemin. And Minho sat on the arm of the couch, beside Jinki.

"So, where are you from Taemin?" Kibum shocked everyone with the sudden question.

"I'd rather not talk about it" Taemin avoided the question.

"Why not?" Kibum continued.

"It makes me think of my family" Taemin told him, and Jonghyun placed a hand on his back.

"Are you not close with them?" Kibum seemed curious, but Jinki was worried about Taemin.

"Kibum, he doesn't want to talk about it" Jonghyun spoke up, but Taemin shook his head.

"If we're all friends he'll find out eventually" Taemin lifted his head up and met Kibum's eyes, "They're dead"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know" Kibum apologized, but something about it felt off to Jinki.

"It was a house fire, I came home to sirens and firefighters, no one made it" Taemin explained, Jonghyun tried to calm him down by rubbing circles on his back.

Jinki looked over to see Minho and Kibum exchange a look, it was like Minho was scolding him with his eyes.

"Why don't we put on some music, something happy to cheer us all up?" Jonghyun suggested and the others agreed.

The rest of the day seemed to go by fine, Jinki was thankful Kibum didn't pull anything else.
