Liar [Vmin]

Phase 39

I just really thought I had to include this picture. You know...for research purposes

"So who's the other friend that's going to be there?" Jin asked as he drived

"His name is Taemin...."

The car aprubtly came to a stop and I shot forward, almost decapitating myself with the seatbelt.

"What did you say?" Jin asked facing me with wide eyes

"Ah...Taemin." I rubbed my neck wincing

"Not the same Taemin that-"

"Hyung, really, it's fine. He's one of my old friends." I said reassuring him

"No no no. How the hell is it the same Taemin? He used to be sweet, I'll give him that but when Taehyung.....And the fact that he's your friend. You saw him with Taehyung too..."

He started driving again as he rambled quietly to himself as I tried to find something to say.

"I'm not sure what exactly happened with Taehyung. But I'm guessing that he did something bad. Taemin isn't to blame though. I won't hold anything against either of them because I don't know the full story..."

"You're too damn sweet. You should be angry! You should be annoyed! How are you so understanding?" He asked blowing his hair out of his face in exasperation.

"It's a bad thing, I know." I said smiling tentively "But I also know that I care about Taemin, even if I haven't seen him in years."

"Fine! But if anything bad happens, tell me." He parked in front of the mall entrance and I got out

"Oh and Jimin!" He called out making me lean inside "Be careful ok?"

I nodded and gave him one last smile before I shut the door, and walked inside the mall.

I wasn't going to lie, it was awkward walking around with a suitcase but I quickly located the food court and I picked up my pace.

Once there, I started looking around. The sea of faces staring back at me until I felt someone cover my eyes and I jumped.

"Guess who." A deep soothing voice asked

My thoughts shot back to the day when Taehyung came home drunk and the same voice filled my ears.

"Taemin..." I breathed out

I took the hands away and turned around to find him much closer then I initially expected, making my eyes go wide.

"You remembered my name." He said smiling

"I mean...Jackson told me you were coming." I answered grinning awkwardly

"Hm, that's good. He told me to drive you to the house."

"He did? Huh, he must trust you since he thinks you won't kill me." I said jokingly

"Oh please Mochi, you know I'd never hurt you." He said ruffling my hair and I had a vivid flashback of when he would protect me

"It's been a long time since you called me that." I opted to say

"It's been a long time since we've seen each other. How have you been?" He asked

"I've been...good. Very good." I smiled "I've been as happy as I should be."

"That makes me happy Mochi. I'd hate to have to beat anyone up."

"That was a long time ago! I can take care of myself now!" I protested
