Everyone in Stray Kids made fun of each other sometimes - it was almost like a requirement for every member. Jisung wouldn't have minded it too much if it weren't for him being the subject of every joke and always him that the other members played pranks on. Was he an easy target?

Whatever it was, Jisung had put up with the teasing for long enough, and he was honestly proud of himself for not breaking down or snapping sooner.

Of course Minho noticed.

Noticed every time Changbin made a joke about Jisung's hairline, or every time Hyunjin called him ugly - even if it all was just a joke. He still noticed the pain behind the smiles that Jisung gave, and he wanted that to stop. But there wasn't really much that Minho could do.

"Ugh, Jisung get off of me, you pig!" Hyunjin exclaimed once Jisung had sat himself down on the older rapper's lap upon noticing there were no more seats left in the living room.

It was a rare day off for Stray Kids, and they'd all decided to go out somewhere for dinner, then come back to the dorm to watch movies until they passed out in the living room. Jisung had made the mistake of having a shower before their movie marathon, because now all the seats had been taken, and Jisung was forced to sit on one of the other members or the floor, and he definitely didn't feel like sitting on the floor.

He thought Hyunjin would be fine with it, since Jisung was always compliant whenever Hyunjin sat on him, but of course he had to be wrong.

The words this time hurt him more than usual, left a harsh stinging sensation in his heart as he stood up from Hyunjin's lap and looked down at the older male in shock.

Minho noticed.

"Jisung, come sit on my lap," the dancer invited, hoping he would be able to help make Jisung feel better, but Jisung shook his head.

"I-I think I'm going to go to bed now, actually," the rapper stuttered out quietly. "Enjoy the movies, guys."

And just like that, Jisung was gone, and Changbin made sure to slap Hyunjin upside the head extra hard once Minho had fleeted from his own seat to follow the younger rapper.

"Nice going, asshole," Changbin hissed, and Hyunjin pouted.

Minho made his way to Jisung and Jeongin's room, not bothering to knock as he knew Jisung would tell him to go away. Stepping into the dark room, Minho could immediately make out Jisung's figure on the top bunk and began to climb the ladder leading to his best friend.

"Jisung?" He whispered softly once he was sat at the foot of Jisung's bed, and upon closer inspection, he could clearly make out Jisung shaking, and decided that that was when he would need to try harder.

Crawling under the covers, Minho tried his best to turn Jisung over so that he was facing him, and Jisung complied with no argument, squeezing his eyes shut in the hopes that when he opened them, he would be somewhere else.

"Hey," Minho cooed gently, bringing one hand up to card his fingers through Jisung's soft brunette locks. "Baby, hey. Look at me."

Jisung did as he was told, opening his eyes and looking at Minho through his tears.

"Good boy," Minho praised softly, leaning forward to press a kiss to Jisung's nose.

"M-Minho-hyung," Jisung sobbed brokenly, the sight breaking Minho's heart. "H-Hurts."
