Troublemakers

Chapter 30

Jiwon's POV 

“Jiwon.”

I turned around as I heard my name being called in the hall. I was on my way to class, I really don't want to be late to Mr. Min's class.

“Yes Junhoe?” I asked as I looked at the guy in front of me.

“I need your help.” he said, he looked a bit uneasy.

“My help?” I frowned. “With what?” 

“I want to go and pick a jewelry for Jinhwan. As his best friend you must know what will be his taste, right?” 

“Wow wow wow, wait,” I frowned. “A jewelry… For Jay...what the hell for?” 

“Well…” he scratched his head, I could see he was feeling uneasy. “I… promised I’d give him something special as a promise to stay with him at graduation. And since it’s next week…” 

“Pause.” I raised my hand, shaking my head. The hell is this guy thinking about?
Give Jinhwan something special as a promise to stay with him? Is this guy trying to making Jinhwan more clingy than needed? 

“Junhoe, why would you promise something like this? You aren't even together for a year!” I argued. Junhoe opened his mouth to answer but I stopped him. 

“Yes, the relationship between you two is great, although gross at times. But promising something like this out of nowhere…”

“It's not like I’m offering him to move in with me!” he protested.

“If you’ll think about doing that I’ll murder you.”

“Jiwon, I promised him. The guy already thinks I'll leave him for someone else in college!” 

“Of course he thinks that!” I looked around, lowering my voice a bit, “he has abandonment issues…! Do you have any idea how he was with us in the beginning? But we didn't need to buy him anything to show him we'll stay no matter what. I can promise you that he still might be having those thoughts, but there's nothing to do about it!”

“I don't see the problem. I just what to show him that he’s really important to me.” 

“The problem here is that you and Jay date only for a short time. He already grew super attached to you and he's putting in you trust he won't put in us. I don't want him to grow dependant on you more than he already is. I know you care about him and you want to show him you'll stay, but no kind of promise would change the fact he’ll still worry about this subject.”

“But it's still a sign of a promise.” Junhoe sighed frustrated. “It’s better than nothing.”

I gave him a look before sighing. The guy was fucking in love. I know he cares about Jinhwan but I'm kind of worried about this. 

It's not like I don't trust Junhoe, he cares about Jay a lot… 

“I hope you know it's not enough. You have to promise me you won't forget to call him or at least text him. You two will be busy at times but never turn him off coldly. I'll come after you if I'll ever see him cry.” I warned, grabbing his shirt as I looked at him.

“I won’t let anyone to hurt my best friend. Just make him start to have the doubt you're leaving him, and I'll fucking kill you.” 

“Does… That means… you'll come with me…?” He asked. I sighed and let go of him. 

“I guess. Maybe Hanbin will come along as well.” I said, “but seriously, watch it. Hurt him - I break you.” I warned one more time before hurrying away. I already was late because of that idiot.
