"Mingi, give me back my charger!"
"Not until you tell me the truth that you ate my last ramen cup!" Mingi exclaimed, crossing his arms at you as he gave you an accusing look. You pouted.
"I didn't eat it, I swear! I only saw it this morning and I came home to you accusing me—wait, this is my house and my ramen! Why are you claiming it's yours?!"
"I'm technically a freeloader here so whatever food I buy and leave it here, it's mine."
Mingi leaned over the counter and cocked his head, making him look irresistible to be mad at him. You had a crush on Mingi for a while but Mingi has been treating you like a sibling he'd annoy. So far, he hasn't showed any sign he likes you but you're determined.
"What is all the racket?"
You turned to see Hongjoong walked into your house while taking a bite from an apple and dropped his bag on the floor.
"Mingi's accusing me of stealing his ramen—what are you doing here? Ya'll come into my house however you like! You're lucky my parents aren't around." You crossed your arms.
"Your mom called, saying she has a shift to cover for her friend," Hongjoong informed. "And I can't bear to watch my kitten getting mauled by a dog."
"Talkin' bout me, hyung?"
"If the shoe fits." Hongjoong cocked his eyebrow, irritating Mingi.
"Buzz off, hyung. I'm only here because y/n was walking home alone and some seniors were following her."
Hongjoong immediately turned into a mom.
"Are you okay? Who are they? I'll show them—"
"Joongie, it's fine. Mingi was with me." You nudged Hongjoong's arm and he understood. He knew about your crush on Mingi and ever since then, he envied Mingi so he constantly picks on the taller guy.
"I don't know why you liked the guy; he's always on your nerves and he focuses on his song writing most of the time. He doesn't even glance at a girl; what made you think whatever you do would change his mind?"
"But you're the one cooped up in your studio every day. What's your point?"
Your answer made him shut up and he pursed his lips tight, his back against the corner as you stared at him in disbelief.
"Cat got your tongue, Joongie?" you winked and walked to your living room with Mingi. Once you're out of his sight, Hongjoong dropped to his knees and touched his chest.
"She winked at me. Oh my gah." Hongjoong was smitten by whatever you do and his face was flushed red when you look proud of your answer.
"I have to go. Got some work to do at home." Mingi announced and you were saddened that he had to go but the moment he announced he was leaving, he was long gone shutting the door behind him. You sighed, shoulders dropped as you're holding a piece of paper in your hand.
It was your confession letter to Mingi. You wanted to give him earlier but you chickened out because Hongjoong was around. You lost the opportunity when Hongjoong mentioned that Mingi doesn't look at girls as he's busy with his song writing class. You actually knew you had no chance with Mingi. He barely looks at you like how you look at him.
"I have to be honest – Mingi is one of the students after me that can pass the song writing class. Our lecturer had high hopes on him so he's really determined. Mingi is a genius." Hongjoong joined you in the living room.
"He is but he's oblivious to my feelings." You pouted.
"Or... he knows that he has no chance with you because someone else likes you. And he respects that."
You turned to Hongjoong interested.
"Someone else likes me? Who would?"
Hongjoong sips on his hot tea when a bulb lights up above your head and you smirked, crawling towards him on the other side of couch.
"Is it you, Kim Hongjoong?" you poked his cheek.
"W-What made you think so? Pfft." He nearly choked on his tea and looked away but his face was red.
"Hey, I've been living with a genius since we're both toddlers, Joongie. I'm quick-witted so I understood immediately; why you're always around when Mingi is, texting me where I am all the time and asking my mom for my prom photo in high school? She also told me you were upset I was going out with Seonghwa that night." You felt bad at the memory after that.
That night during high school prom, Hongjoong got stood up by his date, which he didn't care at all, and went to prom by himself. He was going to ask you but your classmate, Seonghwa, was the loner in your class so you went out with him. Turns out Seonghwa is a rich guy with no friends because people are afraid of his dad's status in Seoul. He was alone and sad throughout his senior year but you man up and asked him so he doesn't go to prom by himself. Seonghwa was thankful for your kindness and his dad was so happy, he offered you 3 best universities in Seoul. One of which Hongjoong was applied to so you picked the university where Hongjoong was going.
Seonghwa's dad had already applied a school in Russia for Seonghwa so he didn't get to be in the same university as you but he's active on Instagram so the two of you would dm'ed.
"I thought you liked Seonghwa but then you're swoon over Mingi. I was thinking... what did I lack, when I was the one who loved you all this time?" Hongjoong admitted carelessly and covered his mouth in hopes you didn't hear him but you did.
"You loved me?" You aww'd at his confession, sort of, and moved closer. "Funny, because I love you too."
Hongjoong narrowed his eyes at you, his tea cup infront of his lips.
"You liar."
"I do love you but I was blinded by my crush on Mingi. I guess I was afraid that if I tell you my real feelings, you'll laugh at me. After all, you laughed at me when I said I wanted you as my prince."
"I was 4!" Hongjoong defended, his face showing pure terror and he chuckled nervously. "I'm sorry, y/n. I didn't mean to laugh. I don't know what I was thinking when ironically I liked you since middle school and—"
"Just kiss me, you fool." You made the first move and pecked his lips. You pulled away and licked your lips. "Chinese tea. I thought you prefer coffee."
Hongjoong's face was two times red than usual and sips his tea some more.
"I can drink whatever I want, woman!"
I hope this was ok :( I'm sorry about my late update. I was trying to keep it together in my life and I had a bad day today fklsjkl
