One mistake, Darling 〈stray kids〉Hyunsung» Hyunjin x Jisung

-35: final 2/2-

I woke up to the bell, it was already break time and I couldn't take Hyunjin out of my mind. Not even for a single second. Even when I fell asleep in the middle of English class my dreams were full of him and his soft touch. I could feel his hands holding mines. Again, it was just a dream.

“Sleepy squirrel, get up, you need to feed yourself at least once.” Minho lifted me by my arm while I was yawning. “What were you dreaming about? You seemed in pain, I was this close to wake you up. Thankfully the bell rang.”

“Just things.” Things called Hyunjin.

Jeongin was finally with us, he looked a bit down. Minho asked him what had happened to him before I could. He gave us that puppy like stare while pouting.

“Chan told me not to talk to him again, not even out of school.”

“I told you, you can't go out with a teacher, it's dangerous for him. He can be sacked and probably never find a job, it would more likely be reflected on his curriculum. And as far as I know he has a girlfriend.”

“I know about that 'girlfriend factor', she's not good for Bang Chan, he's too good.” Jeongin looked down. “He's way too good even for me. I made lots of insinuations and he didn't put a finger on me. He's too pure and loyal. I wish he was a bit worse.”

“Look, Innie, if you try to force things it won't be better. Why don't you find someone else? Chan is probably not the right one.” Minho leaned a hand on Jeongin's shoulder.

“Thanks, bro, but I need a little opportunity at least to find that out. I'm not giving up yet.”

If I were just half the braver Jeongin was, everything would have worked out with Hyunjin. But no, I had to hide behind that screen and pay way too much attention to my insecurities instead of focusing on what he truly felt. When I ran away from him, I was too ashamed of myself.

“Jisung, your frown is almost touching chin.” Minho put a finger on the middle of my eyebrows and pull it up. “What are you thinking about?”

“I'm just jealous of Jeongin. He's so confident.”

“He's not confident, he just doesn't stop to think, it's like he lack of brain sometimes.”

“I'm still here, Minho.”

A slight sign of smile showed up on my face. And with some other jokes I finally laughed, almost forgetting about the previous night.

“Mmm... Hi, I was walking around and I noticed that you have a pretty smile.” I leaded my eyes to the person who had just spoken.

“Minho hyung, let's go to another place.” Jeongin grabbed his arm and tried to make him stand up.

“What? No, I'm not moving, if Hyunjin wants to say something we can be here.” Minho looked at Hyunjin with all the hate he had for him. Jeongin gave the same stare but to Minho. He finally gave up with a sigh. Hyunjin took a seat next to me when they walked away.

We were in an awkward silence, again. I didn't know what was going on.

“So... What's your name?” He asked me. I frowned again. Did he suffer amnesia or some strange disease?

“I'm Jisung, you already know, stupid.” I crossed my arms and pulled a face.

“What? No, we've just met.” He did the same gesture as me. “We're starting from z-e-r-o.” He spelled the last word and then smiled.

I remembered his words from the day before. Was he really doing what he had said? Yes, he was. I had nothing better to do but following him.

“And yours?”

“I'm Hyunjin. I'm glad to finally talk to you. You seemed like the kind of person who make bad puns at the wrong moment.” His smile became wider. “I like those kind of people”.

Do I need to tell the rest of the story? It's pretty obvious that we kept talking for weeks, recovering the time we had lost. Finally, it was working out as it should have in the begging.

Andddd here it ends :'D Sorry, Jisung is too complex. I think I said this before, but this story was going to last no more than 15 chapter, and it ends up being 35. I'm proud of myself, I usually leave stories in the middle because I lack of imagination, thanks god it didn't happen this time.

Probably gonna do a changmin special (? I want to give them a good ending :')
