♥♥♥

A night breeze were kissing the both of the two males cheeks while heading home. It seems that the boys wasn't aware that the sky is getting dark already so it means, they need to go home.

It's quiet. No one has an urge to talk but the quiet atmosphere is comfortable while walking.

Jeno, at the side was taking a glimpse of the younger beside him while bitting his lip. He wants to walk him home but he is shy to ask, scratch that. He's just being careful. He think that Jaemin is sensitive about his life but on the second thought, it won't change if he keep his mouth shut always and never ask him about his life.

"Hey, Jaemin." he called him.

"Hm?"

"Can I walk you home?"

Jaemin glance at him and gave him a confused look but then he nodded. Right, Jaemin didn't complain instead, he gave him a little smile so Jeno was taken aback again. How did it happen? Earlier today, the younger seems annoyed at him cause he keep dragging Jaemin everywhere while making a fuss. But this time, he is smiling. Was it really a big deal for Jeno? Maybe yes? His first impression about Jaemin is he looks lonely and not fond of smiling that's why, he's really shook.

"Can you? I'm okay with it." he answered calmly.

The elder hold his breath. Damn it! Why did Jaemin have to be beautiful like this? And why is that? His heart is melting while staring those beautiful smiles. He wonder what's with it? Why would his heart flutter? Was he touched? That finally, he can smile now?

Damn it Jeno, get yourself together.

They end up going to Jaemin's home together without uttering a single word, but enjoying the comfortable silence between them. The night breeze is the only noise that they can hear at this time. It's not awkward though.

It doesn't matter if they keep walking like this at least they were together, Jeno thought.

Wait.. What?

What the hell he's thinking.

"We're here." Jaemin mumbled and Jeno looked at the maroon house with golden brown roof in front of them.

The house is quite simple. Not huge, but not also small. It was filled by different kind of flowers outside. Even their gate was filled of flowers. Really, Jaemin's family love plants, it's not very obvious though. Jeno thought.

"Thanks for walking with me. You know, you don't have to do that." Jaemin pursed his lips while rubbing his nape, feeling shy in front of the elder and glancing him some short looks. His eyes can't stay still.

There he goes again. Being cute. Jeno can't stand it because his cheeks were heating up again. But he loves the sight.

This is unfair, why everything about Jaemin is cute? Even just rubbing his nape. Really Jeno?!

"I love doing this. Don't worry. I can walk you home everyday. I'll keep you safe." he did not know what he's saying. That's probably the spell of Jaemin's cuteness and Jeno is affected.

"Really?"

"Mm." he nodded.

"By the way, thank you for today. I had fun. For the mean time, I didn't think about my worries." Jaemin smiled. He was about to go inside but Jeno stopped him quickly by grabbing gently his arms.

"Jaemin-ah, you can tell me your problems if you want someone to lean on. I can be that person. I'm a good listener and I promise you, I won't judge. Remember, we're friends."

Right, they were friends and Jaemin must trust him. What is friend's for if he can't trust Jeno?

The question is..

Is Jaemin's ready to trust again?

******

Sandwich, sausage and orange juice were already prepared when Jaemin get down from his room and there his mom, watching for today's news while waiting for him.

"Morning mom." Jaemin greet Mrs. Na to get her attention.

Quickly, she noticed him and gave him a usual warm smile. And for the first time after the storm, Jaemin responded a little smile. So specifically, Mrs. Na was literally taken aback when he witnessed his only son smiled.

"Oh my god." she gasp and cover by her both hands.

"Jaemin my baby. Did you just smile at me?" she added and cupped her son's cheeks and Jaemin innocently shook his head.

He did?

Since when? He didn't know.

"Uhm, is there a problem with that mom?"

"Nothing. I'm just happy. It's been a long time when I saw you smile." she smiled and caressed her son's soft raven hair.

Okay fine, he really did smile.

As soon as Mrs. Na hugged him, Jaemin's heart soften. Knowing that her mother felt relieve, Jaemin felt that another thorn from his heart was fallen. What now? Should he tell Jeno about his family matter? But Jaemin was scared as hell because he was traumatized from his past, the time when he told his friends about his problem. Including his other friends. Renjun, Donghyuck, Mark, Jisung and Chenle. Wow. He made friends but still he can't believe it.

He can't keep it a secret forever.

"Who's that boy with you yesterday?"

Oh, his mother must have seen it.

"He's my f-friend. Jeno."

"Really? I'm happy for you Jaeminie. I can tell that your friend is kind. Look, he even take you home."

"Yeah. I guess."

After taking his breakfast, Jaemin went to his mother to say goodbye and kiss her cheek. He somehow feel greatful today.

When Jaemin was out of his house, he almost pass out when he saw a figure of Jeno standing beside their gate. Jeno was waiting for him.

"Yah! You scared me. What are you doing here?" Jaemin asked him flustering.

"I'm waiting for you because I want to go to school with you. Gotta problem with that?"

Jaemin shook his head and tighten his grip into his bag pack strap. Well, he didn't expecting Jeno to come so he's happy to see him today.

But why would he?
