the seventeen year-old boy watched with wide eyes as his best friend―his first love―confess his feelings to someone else.

jaemin's heart shattered into a million of pieces hearing the beautiful girl happily nod a 'yes' before jumping into the boy's arms. he winced hearing their laughter, watching their loving glances and especially seeing him lovingly hold the other in a protective manner.

they were in the middle of a forgotten park in which jaemin lost the latter in the abundance of trees that were scattered across the field.

these days jeno has been awfully cold to him—even more than usual—giving him the silent treatment, the cold shoulder, and et cetera. so when the older asked him if he could join him on a walk, jaemin happily agreed.

and when he found him he instinctively almost ran into his arms only to find someone else within his grasps.

the electricity being passed throughout his body rattled his gears—feeling his engine overheat and mechanisms tremble. this was too much. he couldn't take it. he could barely breath, his metal walls closing in on him.

the robot turned away from the heartbreaking sight, holding his head in his hand as the message alerted across his vision—glitching and blinding him. his metallic heart clenched tightly within his chest, his back making contact with the bark of the tree he hid behind. whilst wiping his glossy eyes, he immediately tried evening his breath when he felt his throat tighten.

❛c-come on...nononono―stop,❜ jaemin begged to himself. he bit his lip to prevent the sobs that threatened to escape his quivering mouth, ❛y-you knew this was gonna happen.❜

he tried convincing himself that he was fine, that he could face this situation but he really couldn't. he was scared. he shifted his weight to one side, flinching at the sound of a twig snapping as his foot made contact with the grass.

❝who's there?❞ jaemin internally cursed at himself for getting caught as he heard the one voice he loved shout out for him. counting to ten, the robot felt his heart pounding in chest feeling sick to the stomach. hearing footsteps approaching, he gripped onto the tree and forced himself to balance on two feet feeling as if his brain was spinning wildly in that metal skull of his.

taking a deep breathe, he stepped away from the tree revealing himself to the two new lovers. and immediately did he feel like throwing up.
