NOT TOO FOND | dojae.

twelve.

all for you.

jung.jh:
so how well did you fuck
taeyong to get him to
agree to your dumb plan?

johnnyseop:
oh shut up will you?
how did you even know
it was me?

jung.jh:
you two are just
unlucky i was with doie
when taeyong sent him
the video. we connected
the dots from there.

johnnyseop:
oh.

jung.jh:
why are you even doing
this johnny? what do you
want?

johnnyseop:
i know you jaehyun. you
aren't the best when it
comes to love. i'd say
i'm simply helping.

jung.jh:
helping? by pretending
i'm playing him? i'm not
the same jaehyun from
back then.

johnnyseop:
sure you're not, jae.

<+>

johnny took a deep breath, turning off his phone and setting it on his table.

"jung jaehyun, if only you knew," he sighed. "knew that i was doing this for you."

yeah, you heard that right. the reason he was being an asshole, was for jaehyun.

maybe you're wondering: why? and how does this work?

well, you're aware of taeyong's presence, of course? taeyong had just recently came back from a trip out of the country, when he heard his ex-boyfriend, jaehyun, was getting extremely close to a certain kim dongyoung.

the news displeased taeyong. why doyoung? that prim, proper, annoyingly perfect kim doyoung? known to have been jaehyun's bestfriend turned enemy?

no, he totally wasn't jealous of doyoung, the boy who took his place as student council president. why would he envy the boy who took jaehyun from him? ridiculous, right? (bullshit, taeyong was completely jealous.)

his only option was to ruin their relationship. how? using johnny, of course, who has been whipped for jaehyun since the beginning.

oh, did i say whipped for jaehyun? well, it was true after all.

bet you thought he wanted doyoung, huh? but no, it was never confirmed, nor denied.

those things he said at the diner? all scripted. everything he had done was under taeyong's command.

johnny never disliked jaehyun. all the 'rivalry' talk was bullshit, too.

yes, johnny admits he was jealous his friend got place as team captain, but he was proud of him, too.

but johnny never wanted doyoung. that's just what everyone else thought. reason being: he grew distant after finding out jaehyun and doyoung had a thing in the summer.

he and jaehyun were also close friends, you know? nearly inseparable. which is why he isolated himself from the younger upon finding out the news. strangely, no one assumed he liked jaehyun. probably because they assumed they were just 'bros'.

johnny wished they were more than bros, though.

<+>

"johnald! guess what!" the younger yelled, running toward johnny.

"what's up, jae? and i told you not to call me that!" the taller punched his shoulder playfully.

"doyoung and i are hooking up! can you believe it? the fucking student council president and i are fucking!" he announced excitedly.

johnny had never felt his heart sink faster than it did then.

"oh.. i thought you two were just friends, though?" he asked, awkwardly.

"friendship always has the possibility to become even more, y'know?" jaehyun joked.

johnny smiled weakly, "yeah, sure jaehyun."

the younger's grin suddenly fell, "johnny, what's wrong dude? you look upset-"

"it's nothing, jae. i'm just tired from practice," he lied, adding a fake chuckle.

"get some rest dude, you've been at it for a while now," his friend pat him on the shoulder, giving it a tight squeeze afterwards.

"yeah.. well, see ya jae.."

"rest well, johnny! love you, no homo," he smiled his honey smile.

"thanks. lo- uh, me too."

he couldn't bring himself to say it back, his heart ached too much.

<+>

johnny opened up his phone again, chest tightening as he looked at the messages he had sent earlier. it hurt to be so hateful to the one you love.

maybe that's how doyoung had felt before.

oh, how idiotic johnny was to make a deal with the devil, lee taeyong.

"i promise, if you do as i say, you'll eventually win jaehyun back!"

liar. filthy liar.

or maybe johnny was just too naive. too in love to think. he should've expected this from someone like taeyong.

he opened up his photo gallery, tapping on the 'hidden' album. inside it, you'd find pictures of jaehyun, or pictures of himself and jaehyun.

it hurt.

he tapped on a picture of both of them, smiling brightly after their team's first win.

he sighed.

he wishes he had never taken up the deal. he wishes he had listened to his guts, who told him not to meet up with taeyong. he wishes he and jaehyun could just go back.

he wishes he could escape taeyong's chains.

but he couldn't. the other had him right where he needed him, and there was no escape.

or was there?

<+>

"johnny, explain to me why the fuck you brought me here."

"jaehyun, please hear me out."

the younger looked around, making sure no one else was around.

"fine, since we've found ourselves in this situation.. speak up, seo."

for you, my all.

<+>
my (bad) attempt at writing johnny's (and kinda taeyong's) past :0
hope it satisfies your curiosity?
what do you think johnny will say to jaehyun?
