You're in denial, .

You're an idiot!

You don't care? Your face says it all, Taeyong. You're jealous, you can't have a bitter face when you are in a bathroom and pooping. That's sour face.

That Lucas will grab Ten's attention away from you.

Lucas is slowly making a move on Ten! It's so obvious!

You keep on denying but I know you well, Taeyong. I heard that Ten is planning to ask you again. Better answer him a yes or I'll really push that guy to kiss Ten.

You're obviously jealous! Wait till that guy ask Ten out for a date and Ten will not ask you again, forever.

Ten will not ask you again, forever.

Taeyong snaps out of his thoughts. “What the ?” He mumbles, like asking himself why did he spaced out just because of that Ten and his friend's words about the whole thing. He shakes his head, still denying that he have a feeling for Ten even though it's just him, on his room.

All of those words coming in again, like a bolt. He clutches his head and frustratedly groans. Do he really have feelings for Ten? He's so confused. Should he call over a love guru? Read books about love? Pester Jaehyun and Johnny who are in relationships? He never love someone, ever since he was born. 

“,” He clenches his teeth, standing up to find his laptop. Once he found it, he immediately pads his feet to the bed, flopping down on it. He types furiously, searching something that might really help him on this situation. 

Signs that you are in love

“There's a tingling feeling? The is that?” He murmurs, but nonetheless, he continue on scrolling. He bites his lower lip when he sees you will feel like you are floating in the bubbles whenever you see the one you love.

Isn't that what Johnny had told him? He shakes his head, he's really denial. Talk about it, how many times did he denied that he is in love? How many times did he reject Ten? How many times did he feel that he's floating in the bubbles whenever he see Ten? Many times, for sure.

“.” He curses when he read, 'don't be in denial because in the future, you might regret.' It's not that relevant to the one he searched. Sign that someone is in love, not that denial thing again. Well, the creator of that site must be an expert and have many experiences on love. He shrugs at his thoughts. 

He exits the tab and just logs on his account on Facenote. He sees his friend's posts and some chats on his messages box. His eyes wander on the screen them he glances at the post Doyoung is tagged in. He clicks on the photo. The one who posted it is Ten. He grips the side of his laptop, sub-conciously.

The picture contains Ten and his friends, with the Thai guy kissing Lucas' cheeks. The caption says that all of it was a dare. Well, why would a dare be like that? His knuckles turn white, as he grip the laptop while still looking at the picture. 

You're jealous. A voice suddenly comes into his mind, breaking him on his momentum. His voice. He looks at his hand, the one gripping the laptop, and immediately removes it, out of shock. Is he jealous? 

A knock on his door is heard. Taeyong stands up and went to open the door. “Jaehyun?” What is his friend doing at his house? Jaehyun walks past him and lies on the bed, taking his laptop. Taeyong scrambles all the way to get the gadget from the younger's hand but Jaehyun already saw it.

“J-Jaehyun—”

“I knew it!” The younger shouts. Taeyong let him be and sits beside Jaehyun. “Are you stalking on Ten?” Taeyong as always, denies it. He only saw it on his timeline, no more.

“Wait—” Jaehyun mumbles, as he seriously looks on the history page. He is shock, to be honest. He sees the history of Taeyong's search about those signs and the sites that he entered. “Holy ,”

“D-Did you see it, Jaehyun?” Taeyong asks, stuttering, while the younger nods. He can't believe that he is already caught. He place his palms on his face, hiding it from Jaehyun. He hears the other gasps and curses. his life, really.

He is slowly becoming so small beside Jaehyun because of embarassment, but Jaehyun beats it into him. Tugging his shirt so hard just to make him look at the screen and his jaw drops. Another picture of Ten with that Lucas.

While still looking at the picture, he can feel that his jaw is slowly clenching. “,” He whispers, however, that doesn't past through Jaehyun's ears as the younger pats him on his back. “That's what you call jealousy. I said that you should answer him yes but you didn't do it so, your fault.” It's really his fault. It is the first time he love someone, so he's new to these kinds of feelings.

His hands move according on its own, closing the laptop and tosses it on his pillows. He groans. Ten will still ask him, just wait for it. “You've finally realize,” Jaehyun mutters.

He shrugs and flops down the bed. Jaehyun follows, as the weight on the mattress becomes heavy. “Did you think that you regretted because you didn't answered him yes?” The younger questions, leaving Taeyong into his thoughts again. 

Did he regret? 

His answer is yes.

Ten hands the ice creams to Yukhei, Sicheng, Taeil and Doyoung. Yuta is on the other side, sulking. Ten had dyed his hair to ultra violet, as what he said back then. “You don't really want?” He asks on the Japanese, pointing at the cup of ice cream that is only left at the tray.

Yuta shakes his head, still rejecting the dessert. “I rather buy chocolate flavor than that vanilla.” His friend says, making some of them roll their eyes. The reason why Yuta is like that because Hansol is so vanilla and he doesn't want to remember it.

“Come on, Yuta.” Taeil nudges him. Yuta doesn't move on his place so they ignored him. 

A not so long silence enveloped them. “So Ten, now that you dyed your hair,” Doyoung starts and all of his friends avert their attention on him. If a glare can only kill, for sure,
