Jongin barely made it inside the door before two hands met his chest and pushed him so hard he almost lost his balance and stumbled right out the door again.

“You told me there was nothing going on between you two!” Kyungsoo yelled, face spotted with red splotches of emotion. He stared wildly at Jongin, anger most prominent in his features, but also desperate hope shining in his eyes, hope that perhaps the news anchor and the internet articles and the official statement from SM had been nothing but lies, some sort of stupid, elaborate April’s fool joke.

Jongin took a few seconds to compose himself from the shock and find his balance again before he pushed Kyungsoo aside so he could step inside the apartment and close the door behind him. “There was nothing going on between us at the time,” he replied in a clipped tone that clearly showed that he didn’t want to deal with the singer right now. Kyungsoo, on the other hand, wanted to deal with this right now.
