Jisung wasn't sure when his admiration for Minho turned into the likes of a crush, but it definitely had.

Everyday he was looking for the older, asking where he was, what he was doing, and every time he found him, the man was there to greet him fondly and tease him profusely.

He knew it was terribly unprofessional, but Minho has such charisma and charm, something just draws him to the older, like a moth to a flame.

It was a good week into Spring Training, and Jisung was conflicted.

He couldn't think properly with all the things weighing down his mind. He didn't know what Minho was thinking, he didn't know what he wanted, and he didn't even want to know what would happen if they actually got together and the team found out.

But of course that was if Minho was even interested, though probably not, he's surely not the type to falling for people out of the blue.

This revelation of his feelings however was very pressing news, it was almost as if it was going to burst out of him any second.

He had skipped out on lunch with the group today to take a shower early, as he was feeling particularly sweaty, leaving him in his hotel room completely alone with his thoughts.

Something Jisung found to be very bad.

Jisung really really wanted to tell Seungmin, he was the first person he wanted to tell, but of course he went to lunch, which just happened to be very inconvenient for him.

The next thing he knew, he was rushing down the hallway to Woojin's room, hair still wet.

The only thing he was sure about was that he absolutely had to tell someone.

Jisung knocks probably unnecessarily loud, the faster it was out of his system the better he would feel. He needed Woojin to listen to him, needed him to say that it was okay, that he wasn't crazy.

At times like these he wishes he was one of those people that just kept everything to themselves, the ones who felt more secure knowing information stayed with them, Jisung would be thriving right now. Except he was the exact opposite, he gained somewhat of a reputation for this and was always known for being very bad at keeping secrets.

The door swings open, revealing a frustrated Changbin instead.

Jisung tried to look around the older's short figure with wide eyes, trying to spot his manager in the room, "Is Woojin here?"

Changbin looks terribly confused, still holding the door, "Uh no, he went to lunch with some of the other managers be-."

"I think I have a crush on Minho!"

Changbin raises his eye brows in pure shock painting his face, "You, what?"

Jisung rushes past the older into the hotel room, clutching his hair from anxiety, "Oh my god I can't believe I just told you that, I was going to tell Woojin and then you were here and he wasn't here and I couldn't not tell someone so my brain made an epic word barf and it just came out," Jisung stops in his tracks to turn around and look at the older who was closing the door tentatively, "I am so sorry."

Changbin approaches the boy slowly, momentarily stunned by Jisung's run-on sentence. He gets him back on topic, "You have a crush on Lee Minho?"

Jisung is quick to correct him, pointing at him and beginning to pace, "I think I have a crush on him."

Changbin watches the boy walking back and forth incredulously, "You think or you know?"
