Jenna brought over the tray filled with mugs of hot chocolate to the dinning table, where Johnny, Jaehyun, and Jaemin were waiting. Jaemin looked up, giving Jenna a bright smile as he took the mug in his hands.
While Jaehyun had went to pick Jaemin up, Jenna had migrated to Johnny's room to inform him of the presence of the young boy. Johnny had nodded, telling her that it made sense, considering the situation. Upon seeing Jenna's confused face, Johnny had realized his sister's lack of knowledge.
...
"Sit down, sis." Johnny said, patting the space on his bed.
"Why?" Jenna asked, hands on her hips as she glared at her brother.
"I'm going to tell you everything and it's a lot to handle so just sit. Please." Johnny said, his eyes filled with pure worry. Jenna sighed before taking a seat.
Johnny explained how NCT had set Mr. Park up through Jaemin, how the man had been secretly pocketing billions of dollars his law firm earned.
"He's probably worried. He's young and lives in an apartment alone." Johnny told her.
"I thought the dreamies lived together." Jenna stated.
"Well, Renjun and Jeno live together, Mark and Haechan, and Chenle and Jisung. Jaemin spends a lot of time in Jeno and Renjun's place, but at the end of the day, Jaemin likes having his own quiet space which is why he has his own apartment. He probably doesn't want to admit that he's scared to his friends, which is why he contacted Jaehyun. Jaehyun is probably Jaemin's most respected hyung. Jaehyun was the one that trained Jaemin everything he knows and protects him like a younger brother. The two have a tight bond." Johnny told her. Jenna slowly nodded her head, trying to take in the information. Luckily, the doorbell rang signalling the arrival of Jaehyun and Jaemin.
...
The four of them sat in silence as they sipped their hot chocolate, waiting for someone to say the first words.
"So how do youngsters like you Dream members get into something like this?" Jenna awkwardly asked, trying to break the tension. Jaemin gave her a wide grin before answering her question.
"Jaehyun found me in an alleyway one day after school." Jaemin said. Jenna quickly did some math in her head before realizing something.
"You two were part of NCT when we were in college?" Jenna exclaimed. Johnny and Jaehyun exchanged looks before letting out light-hearted chuckles.
"Remember those late night boxing classes we told you about?" Jaehyun said. The realization hit Jenna like a truck.
"Yeah, well back to how I got involved, when Jaehyun found me, I was getting beaten up by a bunch of bullies from my school. Jaehyun chased them away and honestly, I owe him big time for doing that. As he helped me up, I asked him how he learned to fight like that and he told me I shouldn't get involved in fighting like he did." Jaemin told her.
"The stupid boy wouldn't stop pestering me about it though, following me as I walked. Eventually I told him that I was part of a gang, hoping that he would back away but instead, the crazy boy's eyes lit up and told me he was hacker." Jaehyun continued the story, making Jaemin giggle.
"In high school, I was well known for my programming skills. I was a big nerd, noona. I even had those big glasses. I was also a big trouble-maker. When I saw the bullies harassing students at the school, I would hack into the school's social media pages to to expose them. Eventually they found out it was me, which is how I ended up getting beaten up." Jenna noticed a hint of sadness in Jaemin's eyes before he perked up again.
"Anyways, it just so happened that NCT was in need of a hacker at the time too, so after much begging, Jaehyun brought me to NCT." Jaemin finished up, proudly smiling.
"If it weren't for Jaehyun-hyung, I wouldn't have met Jungwoo-hyung and joined the agency. Without modelling, I wouldn't be able to live such a lavish and comfortable life." Jaemin said, making Jaehyun smack the boy in the head.
"Stop making it sound like a sappy love story." Jaehyun scolded the boy. Jaemin simply chuckled as Jenna noticed Jaehyun's ears flushed red.
"Wait, noona. If you were with Jaehyun at the time, were you the girl on his wallpaper that he showed off to all the hyung?" Jaemin suddenly asked, catching them off guard.
"Yah, Na Jaemin, do you want to die tonight?" Jaehyun exclaimed, making them laugh. Jaemin simply flashed a bright smile to his hyung.
"It's getting late, we should head to bed." Johnny said as he looked at his watch. Jenna nodded in agreement.
"I can wash the mugs, Johnny can you show Jaemin the spare bedroom?" Jenna asked her brother.
"Sure, Jaemin follow me." Johnny said. Jaemin thanked Jenna for the hot chocolate before following Johnny upstairs, leaving Jenna alone with Jaehyun.
"Let me help you." Jaehyun said, taking the mugs to the kitchen. Jenna stared in awe as Jaehyun washed the mugs, admiring how effortlessly breathtaking he was, completing the simple chore.
"Is there something on my face?" Jaehyun asked. Jenna shook her head with a smile.
"No, you're just handsome." Jenna said, complimenting him. She watched as his ears began to turn red, a smile growing on his face. Jaehyun turned the tap off, drying his hands before quickly turning around. His hands held onto Jenna's waist, lifting the girl onto the counter.
"Jae!" Jenna gasped, surprised by his movements. She soon felt Jaehyun smash his lips against hers, pulling her into a passionate kiss. When they broke apart, Jaehyun held her tight, resting her head on his chest as he whispered into her ear.
"Let's take this upstairs." Jaehyun growled into her ear, sending shivers down her spine. Jenna slowly nodded, letting Jaehyun carry her up to her room for the night.
