Never Ending Story 《Seungjin FF》

{29}

Hyunjin looked at him with wide eyes. "But I never saw him?" He lifted one eyebrow up. Seungmin flushed red, "We just became together recently..." Hyunjin forrowed his eyebrows now, "Are you really over me..so fast?..." Hyunjin asked. Seungmin looked at him and opened his mouth to speak but some other word came out of it. "So?"

Hyunjin looked hurt. "Am I late?" Now it was Seungmin's turn to forrow his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

"You really don't like me..." Hyunjin trailed off and it sounded like a statement instead of a question. Seungmin was angry. "You always trail off. You come out of no where and kiss me! Then ask me if I am over you! What is this supposed to mean? It's always you who makes me so confused. You always take care of me and act as if you like me. But you say you don't. You-You always make me confused. Isn't it good that I don't like you anymore? I always am the one to get hurt in the end! At this point I don't know what to do with you!"

Seungmin said it out in one breath. All that had been bottled up within himself. He looked at Hyunjin and saw that he was laying face first on his bed. Seungmin was more furious but he knew this anger would benefit him nothing. Afterall Hyunjin was drunk. He pulled the covers over his head and texted Woojin the whole problem.

Changbin in the other hand was with Woojin when Seungmin's message arrived. "Oh! Hyunjin did that?*tch* he sure is very fast." Woojin looked at him as if he was talking an alien language.  "You don't know?" Now it was Changbin's turn to be confused. "What do you mean?" Woojin asked.

"Hyunjin recently told me that he likes Seungmin little by little." Changbin said. "He what?" Woojin asked, his jaw dropping wide open. "He-" his phone vibrated. "I gotta take his call." Changbin said and smiled, "Yeah Lix..."

Woojin's phone vibrated which caused him to snap out of his trance. "Hello?"

...

->->->->->

Seungmin couldn't sleep after what he heard from Woojin. He wanted to talk to Hyunjin about it face to face.  But was somehow afraid because he didn't want to lie to him because he had never asked Changbin himself. So... Seungmin had decided to call Changbin first. It was still day at Korea so he would be free.

"Changbin!" Seungmin breathed a breath of relief, "Hey what's up? You doing good? Hyunjin is taking care of you right?" Changbin bombarded Seungmin with questions which made him giggle. "Yeah I'm fine, I just have a favour to ask you and no Hyunjin is not taking care of me." Seungmin huffed.

"Huh?" Changbin asked. "Did Hyunjin tell you that he likes me little by little?" Seungmin came straight to the point. There was a chuckle from the other line, "Surely he did. Don't get over him yet. You have waited for him long enough now it's you time to shine. He likes you back! Propose him ok, dude!" Changbin said with zeal. Seungmin blushed and thanked the Gods that he couldn't see his face. "S-sure."

"Then I gotta go,Lix is here! Bye!Miss you loads." Seungmin smiled. Changbin had changed so much. A good change because of Felix. Does your loved one always change you?

Well Chan did change Seungmin a lot. Seungmin could be free and independent. He could think and do things freely. Seungmin was happy with that and it was a good change. So was Chan his right one?

But then there was Hyunjin. He taught Seungmin to be strong no matter what, even when you are desperately in need of love and the person whom you love stands right infront of you but he doesn't love you back, you can always restrain yourself. Self control. Seungmin had started to control his feelings too with his actions too. He had been more considerate and thoughtful on what he would do next so that he wouldn't mess things up.

Seungmin looked at Hyunjin. Seungmin would maybe ask him honestly and if Hyunjin didn't have the guts then he would leave him? Seungmin was so tired. He had learned that if something didn't benefit you and only harm you then it was something you have to leave behind. That was self love.

He turned around and decided to ask Hyunjin when he was sober.  Which caused him to drift off into a stressful sleep.

->->->->->

In the morning Seungmin woke up to find an empty bed near him. Where was Hyunjin? Seungmin shook his head and went to freshen up. After he was done he moved to the kitchen to grab something to eat. He was early today because his class was in the afternoon. So he decided to do some assignments that were due the following week after breakfast.

When he entered the kitchen he saw Hyunjin doing something. Seungmin chose to ignore it and went to the fridge and grabbing some vegimate and butter. He prefered simple bread over a toast. Having the 'Felix recommended breakfast' he turned around and met with Hyunjin's fed up face. He was carrying two plates of white coloured pancakes. "What?" Seungmin asked with mouthful of his bread.

"I made some pancakes for us, it's my new invention and I call it Mochi pancakes! I want you to try and tell me how it tastes." Seungmin narrowed his eyes. "But first tell me one thing." Hyunjin nodded, "Do you like me back?" Hyunjin's eyes shot up. "Huh?"

Seungmin told him everything that Changbin had said, "No! I meant as a friend!" Wow, so Hyunjin didn't like him as a friend too before? Seungmin was sad but he didn't voice it out.

"Now finish that first!" Hyunjin said grumpily and cut a piece of his pancake and held it in his hand. Seungmin finished chewing and sollowed, moving his hand forward to grab the piece but Hyunjin jerked his hand off and fed him. Seungmin was confused. Why was he taking care of Seungmin as if they were a couple?

Seungmin had had enough. He sat down and ate the breakfast in silence.

->->->->->

Seungmin yelled, "Finally," with glee. He had finished his assignments and could study peacefully. Hyunjin braged inside their shared room and said, "I'm asked to go back to Seoul in three days because my mother is a little sick and I have to finish my assignment in two days! Seungmin you have stayed here for many months now please help me!"

Seungmin looked at him, "Not many months! What happened to your mom?" He asked a little scared. "Even I don't know. But just you gotta help me."

"Ok ok fine but just calm the hell down, you scared me!" Seungmin said. Hyunjin looked at him and said, "Thank you so much, your the best!" And he smiled.

'Why are becoming close to be when I am trying to get over you? But this is what best friends do right? Help eachother...I'm happy we are getting along like before. We aren't awkward anymore like before so we can be honest with eachother right? But still whenever I'm trying to get far away from you, you come chasing after me. And when I turn back around to walk towards you, you turn your back on me.' Seungmin thought.

'But it's fine now. I'm over you, at least I have made up my mind. So I guess we have to move on in life. You can never stay this way, you got to move on. So here I am. I'm going to be a proper friend for you. A proper good best friend...'

Seungmin gave a small smile, "Friends never say thank you or sorry."

Hyunjin smiled, "Let's get started then?" Seungmin nodded, "I'm going to skip today so I can help you finish things fast."

'You make me feel something that I'm really familiar with.'

"What was that?" Seungmin asked. "Oh nothing."

'Did I say that out loud?'
