chapter thirty-three

October

Minho couldn't stand it. He hasn't seen Jisung in weeks. 

"Aish, I really screwed this one up," he muttered, rubbing his eyes with the base of his palms. He was trying to stop the tears, but it didn't work. It seemed likes his eyes were broken, randomly tearing up even when Minho wasn't thinking about Jisung. He's noticed that he's just brushing his teeth or getting coffee when tears start dripping down his face and splattering pathetically on the counter. His heart ached constantly.

He told the gang that he told Jisung what happened, and they were all gloomy. They all knew from the start that they had to do something about it and eventually stop, but no one knew how to end it. Now that Minho's let the cat out of the bag, they knew it was time to end the gang. However, it was a big part of each of their lives, and they all knew they were about to undergo a big change. For the better or for the worse, they couldn't tell yet.

Minho sighed, sucking on an lollipop as he laid in bed. Jisung would be proud of him for not smoking, but Minho really longed for the feeling of having him with him. Minho sighed and laid on his side, slowly closing his eyes and drifting to sleep.

Jisung was pacing around his bedroom.

"Just text him, mate," Felix groaned, eyes lazily following Jisung's motions. This was the third time Jisung was going to send him a text, then changed his mind.

Felix sighed. "You're not gonna get this solved if you don't text him. He's waiting for you to reach out."

Jisung closed his eyes, massaging his temples. "I know but...I'm just scared."

The younger rolled his eyes. "Jisung, I don't know how many times I have to tell you, but Minho is absolutely whipped for you. Almost as much as you are for him. He loves you so much that you guys'll be able to sort this out. I mean, have you seen how he looks at you? How he smiles at you when you're not looking? But you won't be able to be together again until you text him so hurry up-"

"Okay, okay! I'll send him the text," Jisung paused, glancing at Felix with big eyes. "But does he actually do that?"

"Yes, you dork," Felix smiled, lightly hitting him. "You just don't notice because you're too busy drooling over him, too."

The older pouted. "Whatever. I just sent it." He stubbornly crossed his arms until his phone buzzed, and he immediately whipped it out to check the notification.

[minnie~]

< hi jisung. i miss you. i'll see you at the park

"What'd he say?" Felix asked, leaning over to read the messages.

"He said he misses me," Jisung said, his eyes shining and his lips turned into a pout. "I need to see him."

Felix shook his head. "You will, just wait a little bit longer."

Jisung nodded, swallowing the lump in his throat. He was so excited, and he desperately tried to push down the anxiety he was feeling, too.

The time had come, and Jisung was nervously pacing around the park, constantly searching for the one boy he missed so much. Then, he saw him. 

Minho's figure was distinguishable from afar; Jisung didn't need to see his face to know who it was immediately. His heart rate immediately picked up while adrenaline started flooding his veins.
