Illegal - Minsung

1.2. Jisung

It was only another 30 seconds before the van appeared and they clambered into the back. Hyunjin quickly ran to lock the doors and Changbin started driving away from the HQ. Minho felt a slight pull on his sleeve and he suddenly remembered that he'd pulled a boy with him to the van. "Hyung, Minho hyung," he heard a soft voice come from next to him.

Whipping his head around, Minho stared at the boy in shock. Wide brown eyes looked back at him and they glistened excitedly, the older boy lay his hand on the younger's shoulder simply to make sure he was real before he spoke, "Jisung?"

"It's me hyung and you're here too, we found each other," Jisung grinned and his words seemed to ignite a fire in Minho's chest as he lurched forward and embraced the boy into a tight hug. Tears began leaking down Minho's cheeks as he took in the feeling of Jisung's arms wrapped around his body again and the sounds of the younger boys soft cries, they pulled away from the hug and simply stared at each other for a minute in disbelief. Neither of them even knew how to handle the situation, they seemed to have forgotten how to deal with pure euphoria.

"I love you so much," Jisung said from behind his sobs and to Minho, hearing the words was like feeling rain touch your skin after a drought or jumping in the ocean on a warm day. For the first time he remembered, he felt alive.

"I love you so much too, I've been looking for you everywhere you have no idea how much I've missed you I-" the older boy found it hard to breathe as Jisung lay a soft kiss on his cheek and pulled him in for another hug. The van jolted as Changbin stopped at a red light and it sent Minho flying onto his lover but they simply laughed as Jisung groaned in pain, everything felt so right and normal again, Minho no longer felt alone and lost. He'd regained the most important thing in his life and thus regained his happiness.

"Uh hyung?" Minho heard a deep and shocked voice coming from his other side and he turned to face Felix. It wasn't surprising that the boy looked confused but Minho could tell from his soft smile that he realised what had just happened, he and Hyunjin were staring at the two found lovers with pride and Minho beamed back at them.

"Oh, Sung this is Felix my new brother and this is Hyunjin my friend," the eldest spoke, "Felix, Hyunjin this is Jisung my..." Minho trailed off and turned to face Jisung who simply rolled his eyes.

"We never broke up hyung, I'm still your boyfriend," Jisung giggled and Minho laughed with him.

"He's my boyfriend," Minho finished happily and the two other boys laughed along with them.

"Well it's very very nice to meet you," Felix said, "I would introduce you to my boyfriend but he's driving," the younger laughed.

"It's nice to meet you too! I'd introduce you to my boyfriends but I don't know who they are," Hyunjin laughed and Jisung wasted no time wondering whether he should just laugh along before he broke into a fit of giggles, not that Hyunjin minded.

"Minho hyung, you know you remembered the word squirrel?" Felix asked him and Minho nodded, "he does look like one don't you think?"

Minho didn't even need to check before he nodded and laughed at the thought that his memory of Jisung looking like a squirrel was so strong that it broke through the barrier created by the serum. He wondered what Jisung had remembered.

"Hey Sung, how long have you been out?" Minho asked the boy who was now cuddled up to his side.

"A week," Jisung answered and Minho's eyes went wide.

"Only a week?"

"Yeah, that's why I was going to the support group, I wanted to make some new friends," Jisung explained, "I'd met someone when I was collecting my allowance and she told me the truth about why we'd had our memories wiped, she suggested I went to the group to meet some new people."

"Well the group is actually an underground organisation called Unite," Felix told him, "everything you've remembered you write down and then they put it into a database and it matches you with people who could be your lover."

Jisung looked shocked by this, "that's such a good idea!" he said excitedly, "did you sign up hyung?"

"Of course I did!" Minho told him.

"What did you remember about me hyung?" Jisung asked, "do you know how old I am or my birthday?" he asked curiously, "I think I know your birthday."

"I'm pretty sure yours is 14th September 2000," Minho told him and the younger grinned.

"You're a day older than me!" Felix said excitedly.

"Hey, you never told me we didn't celebrate your birthday," Minho turned to the youngest.

"Changbin hyung only told me like 4 days after we met," Felix replied defensively causing Minho to just smile.

"Yours is October 25th hyung," Jisung said, "it's soon, we can celebrate!" he grinned, "wait, I forgot to ask you where are we going and what's happening?"

"Oh," Minho spoke and during the whole commotion he had forgotten why he had found Jisung again and the situation in which it had happened.

"The police caught on to the group, everyone who had their memory wiped in the area would've been taken in for evaluation and ultimately a re-do of their memory wipe," Felix explained sadly and Jisung looked horrified.

"Where are we going?" The oldest asked Felix.

"Australia," the youngest grinned and Minho could see the excitement in his eyes, "I can't remember it at all but I know it's beautiful," he spoke almost wistfully.

The van stopped then and they all headed out into the airport, it wasn't the commercial airport that Minho had been expecting, instead it was a Unite owned private airfield. "Why didn't I know about this before?" Felix asked Changbin when they met again out of the van.

"We have to keep it as the most closely guarded secret, if this place goes then we're stuck," Changbin told him and Jisung squeezed Minho's hand tightly in fear. It must've been terrifying for his boyfriend, Minho thought, he'd only learnt two days ago the real reason of why his memory had been stolen and now he'd found his lover again and was being chased from his home country by the police yet still he had a smile on his face, Minho couldn't help but admire his strength and willingness to fight.

"Uh... who's this?" Changbin asked whilst grinning in Minho's direction.

"Oh! Jisung this is Changbin, Changbin this is Jisung my boyfriend," Jisung waved shyly and Changbin's eyes lit up in happiness.

"Hyung! I'm so happy for you!" Changbin pulled the two boys in for a short group hug and whispered in Minho's ear, "I'm glad you found him before you had to leave," he smiled softly and then looked towards Hyunjin who was staring at the group with a weird sense of sad pride in his eyes.

Minho couldn't even bear to put himself in Hyunjin's position. He moved away from Jisung for a second and walked over to the younger boy, "hey Jinnie are you okay?" he wrapped an arm around him as he spoke.

Hyunjin gave him a weak smile and he hung his head slightly and sniffed, "yeah I'm okay," his voice broke towards the end of his sentence and a few tears trickled down his face.

"You'll find them Hyunjin, I'm certain of it, the doctor told me if you love truly then you'll find them again and look at you now yeah? You're crying so much because you love them so truly," Minho spoke and pulled Hyunjin in for a short hug.

The older was interrupted by a tap on the shoulder and Minho turned around to face Jisung, every time Minho saw his lover's face it was another shock to the system and the younger boy smiled bashfully as he spoke, "the plane's here, we've got to go," he shot a sympathetic smile at Hyunjin.

"Come on Jinnie, you never know what waits for us in Australia." Minho linked arms with his friend and his boyfriend as they took the steps towards the plane, towards freedom.
