dino's confession

It came as a surprise for Jaemin when Dino asked to talk to him privately only after a week of that awkward conversation.

The moment Jaemin pushed open the back door leading to the garden, he could feel the gentle wind blowing on his face.

He walked over to where Dino was standing, stopping a few feet behind him.

" What do you want? " he asked, his sharp voice piercing through the air as he placed his cold hands in his pockets to seek warmth.

" you like y/n, am i right? " he asked, though he already knew the answer

" Too obvious? "

Dino chuckled, letting out a cold breath of air and nodding slightly.

They stood in silence for a moment before Dino laughed again, " I like her too. "

Jaemin frowned, taking a step closer to Dino but Dino threw both his hands up as a surrender. Turning around and walking backwards, his back hitting the wall behind him.

His head resting on the wall with a sad smile playing on his lips.

" I'll let her go after I confess, " he informed Jaemin, " She likes you alot and its useless for me to keep trying. "

He tilted his head to another side, his eyes fluttering shut, " protect her. "

The back door creaked opened and y/n stepped out onto the back garden, " what are you guys doing? "

Dino placed his hands down, stepping away from the wall, " can I talk to you? "

Y/n nodded, glancing at Jaemin who was retreating back into the house with a small comforting smile.

" did anything happen? "

" you like jaemin right? "

Y/n bit her bottom lip, staring at the ground wordless.

Dino forced a smile to his lips, " I like you. " he blurted out, " since we were young. "

" Chan, I'm sor- "

" whats the point of apologising? " he cut her off, " go to Jaemin, he likes you too. "

He pushed himself off the wall, walking towards y/n and stretching his arms open like he did years before.

" Can I have a hug? " he requested, " before you get taken. "

y/n grinned, running forwards and engulfing him in a big hug, " you'll still visit our base often wornt you? "

she was back in her room with several new cuts on her wrist. she was crying her eyes out without a care of the new cuts that were bleeding rather badly.

she had hurt him even when she told herself over and over again not to. no doubt, she was terrified, terrified of losing him like she did before.

she liked him, just not as a crush and she blamed herself for the look of pain in his eyes.

well, it was.

" Y/n! "

She heard Jaemin's voice from outside her room, followed by soft knocking on the door.

She didn't answer the door, obviously. she didnt want him to see her in the state she was in.

His confession repeated in her head repeatedly like a broken casket.

She drew her knees closer to her chest and burying her head in her hands.

" I'm the source of his unhappiness. "

Jaemin stood outside the room in confusion. maybe she wasn't in her room, he thought to himself, staring at the doorknob before trying it.

It was locked.

He knocked on the door once again, informing her that dinner was ready even though he knew that she would not answer it.

He pressed his back against the wall next to her door while waiting for her to exit the room but he soon fell asleep.

Yes, standing up.

He did end up waking up before she open the door. At around an hour later, he woke up to an annoying tapping on his shoulder.

" Bro, who sleeps while standing up? "

" leave me alone, " Jaemin grumped, sliding down the wall to sit on the floor.

" What are you doing here? " Jeno questioned, sitting cross legged opposite Jaemin.

" I'm waiting for y/n to come out, she haven't eat dinner. " he replied with a yawn, " go back to your room. "

" this is my room. " jeno grinned, tapping the door behind himself, " my room is opposite hers, remember? "

he nodded, turning his head away from Jeno and staring down the long hallway.

" Is y/n not intending to come out? "

Jaemin shook his head, " seems like it. "

" Maybe you should just go to sleep, " Jeno suggested, " she'll be fine. "

" As much as i hope so, I don't think she's okay, " Jaemin said, clearly worried as he ran a hand through his now blonde hair, " I was supposed to take care of her. "
