Junsu’s POV

“I think… I’m in-love with Yunho-hyung.” Choi Siwon blurted out a little too quickly. I think I didn’t hear him right. Looking troubled for the past few days, I’ve finally asked him what’s wrong and I wish I just didn’t.

“You’re what?!?” I said in a restrained voice, trying to make my voice sound a little softer, inching closer to him.

“I said…”

I raised my hand. “I heard you the first time, alright. Are you sure?”

Siwon sighed in exasperation. “I don’t know. That’s why I told you I think.

“Smart …” I pushed at his head lightly.

“What should I do, Hyung? I don’t think I can even face Yunho-hyung anymore… Jae-hyung,too.”

“Jae-hyung, why?” I probably look stupid for asking the same question over again.

Fidgeting in his seat, Siwon bit on his lips. “Well, Yunho-hyung seems to like him A LOT and I think the feeling’s mutual.”

Oh shoot! I almost forgot about that!

I suddenly grabbed him in the arm, scaring the poor guy. Maybe ‘You can’t be in-love with Yunho-hyung!”

“Why not?”

“Because he and Jae-hyung are in-love and they’re meant to be together.”

“Then, why aren’t they together?”

“Because Jae-hyung is stupid…” I burst out causing Siwon to stare at me for a brief moment. “Okay, I didn’t mean that… not fully.”

“What are you guys talking about looking so sneaky?” I froze at hearing Jae-hyung’s voice; you’d think I was the one who just confessed about the possibility of being in-love with Yunho-hyung.

“Nothing, Hyung.” I made a quick grab of Siwon’s arm, pulling him away from the table we just shared and now Jae-hyung’s occupying. “We’ll see you later, hyung.”

+++++++++++++++++++++++

“That’s *munch* cool *munch*, hyung!” Changmin finally finished his sentence, thank goodness!

We we’re all sitting around the table having our lunch when Yunho-hyung told us that they’re group will represent our school for an inter university dance competition which is still quite far away. Six months is still quite a long time.

“That’s just awesome, hyung.” I squeaked in, hurting my friends’ ear in the process. “If you win in that competition and the other two that follows, you might just represent our country for an international competition.

Yunho held his hands up to stop our excitement. “Guys, you’re already making me nervous with what you’re all saying.”

Yoochun wrapped an around my waist, resting his chin on my shoulder. Now that he’s done eating, he’s attention is on me. “Yunho-hyung, you’re like…one of the best there.”

“Neh, Yunho-ah, you’ll do great, I’m sure of that.”

I think I wasn’t the only one who heard the flirting in Siwon’s voice when he spoke as our heads all turned to look at him at that moment. And from the corner of my eyes I can see how Jae-hyung browse furrowed. And did Siwon just called Yunho-hyung by his name alone?

Breaking the silence that suddenly came over us, I turned to Yunho-hyung. “Hyung, aren’t you going to be late for class now?” I held my hand up, pointing at the time on my watch.

He glanced at his watch, excusing himself and Jaejoong. I can see how he suddenly felt awkward.

Jaejoong’s POV

“Ookkkayy… what was that all about?” Yunho turned to ask me the moment we were already in a safe distance away from the others.

I glance back, catching Siwon’s eye still following us before I answered. “I don’t know, you tell me. It looks like he’s been drooling over you for the past few days.”

I wish I didn’t sound like I’m jealous. It’s enough that I know that I am. Yunho doesn’t need to know that.

Grinning, Yunho started walking backwards, facing me. “Are you jealous?”

“Oh, yes, you are.”

“Am not!”

“Are too.”

“Yunho!”

“Fine, I’ll stop.” He says but his eyes tell me he thinks that I am jealous. Of course, I won’t admit to that. “It’s really just fun to tease you, Jae.”

I rolled my eyes walking past him to enter our next class.

“I still think you’re jealous though.” Yunho’s voiced echoed behind me.

“Whatever.”

+++++++++++++++++++++++

“Where’s Yunho-hyung?” Changmin placed the water I asked him to fetch for me n the table.

We suddenly have a break from our last class with the English teachers’ unexpected meeting. Just when I thought I’ll have that time to spend with Yunho before he gets busy with another dance practice after all of our classes, Choi Siwon came in the scene and had pulled Yunho’s attention completely away from me after asking Yunho to teach him a step he said he couldn’t get. As much as I love the guy who has become a good friend of mine, I just wanted to strangle him to death.

“He’s with Siwon.” I answered bitterly, like my tongue’s burning just saying Siwon’s name. “I don’t know. Siwon just came out of nowhere.”

“Ah, that’s not… good.” Changmin whispered but it reached my ear. Looking at my brother intently, his browse twitched when he really that my attention’s on him.

“Do you…happen to know something that I don’t, Changmin?”

My voice sounded calm but Changmin knew better. “Uh, no. Not really. Just…heard some stuff going on around.”

By the way he’s stuttering, now I’m completely sure he’s indeed hiding something from me. And I’m glad I didn’t need to hang him upside down before he spilled it out. I only needed to give him one deadly look and he knows he’s left with no other choice but to tell me.

“Well, I heard from a student about Choi Siwon announcing to the whole school about how he likes Yunho-hyung. And that he intends to make hyung like him…you know, like LIKE.”

“What?!”

“Looks like you’ve got some competition, Hyung.”

I smack Changmin on the head. And I hit him hard.

It was at that moment that all of my fears, it was the thought of loosing Yunho that scared me the most. And it was also then that I put all my other fears aside, deciding that.

The next thing I knew, I was searching for Yunho the moment the bell rang, signaling the end of class. I never saw him again after he left with Siwon and when I checked the dance room, it was already close.

Speed dialing his number, I waited patiently for Yunho to answer his phone. A patiently tap my foot on the ground as I heard the phone ringing. A few more rings before someone picked up.

“Yoboseyeo.” I quickly recognized Yunho’s voice even with the loud music coming from the background.

“Yunho, it’s me.” I hope I spoke loud enough for him to hear me.

“Oh, Jaejoong ah…”

“Yunho-ah, let’s go…” My browse hunched up and my hand tightened on the phone when I heard Siwon’s voice. He seems very close to Yunho, if he wasn’t, I wouldn’t hear him.

“Jae, I’ll need to hang up now. I’ll call you back later.” I didn’t even have the time to protest for all I heard next was a dial tone. I know I can’t just sit down and relax at home knowing Yunho’s with Choi Siwon. Who knows what that guy’s planning to do? Grabbing my car keys, I closed the door behind me after leaving a short message for my brother.

++++++++++++

Standing in front of his door, I took in a deep breath before I finally knocked. The door opened, revealing a half Siwon under the frame. I can hear my heart pouding against my chest, thoughts of what’s happening inside before I came flooding my mind.

“Jaejoong-hyung… wh-what are you doing here?”

“I… Yunho.” I managed to choke out.

“Jae-hyung is here…baby” He called out behind him. My eyes re his face the moment I heard him call baby. If my mind wasn’t very occupied about that baby calling, I would have noticed how he shouted his other sentence and only that word was said in a whisper.

Giving an awkward smiled, I took a few step away from the door. “I… I think you guys are busy. Just tell Yunho I dropped by…” I stuttered but managed to finish my sentence out. I was about to turn around when Yunho’s much taller frame came from behind Choi Siwon. And just like the younger man, he was shirtless.

“Jaejoong-ah!”

My eyes flew from Yunho to Choi Siwon and then back. A tear’s threatening to fall anytime, and to save myself some pride, I need to make a quick leave, like right now. “I’ll see you guys tomorrow.” I said as I my heel and run down the stairs.

It took Yunho a few more seconds before he realized the situation. Mentally cursing, he grabbed a shirt and went after Jaejoong

I ran again, only this time it was for a different reason. It hurts to see Yunho with Choi Siwon and I couldn’t bear seeing him with anyone aside from me. And I know it’s my entire fault that Yunho found Siwon, that I’ve lost him.

“Jaejoong, wait!” Yunho’s voice rang behind me making me run faster. I never mind having to walk down these stairs before but my only wish for now is for the door to just appear right in front of me.

“Jaejoong! The voice sounded closer, much closer until I found myself being swung around by a forceful hand on my arms, my body colliding with Yunho’s. “Why the hell are you running away?”

I pushed at his chest, trying to loosen his hold on me. “Yunho, let me go.” My voice trembled.

“I won’t let you go until you tell me what’s wrong!”

Yunho gazed intensely on my face before he practically dragged my back to his place.

When we arrived back, Choi Siwon was already fully dressed and it surprised me to find Dongwook there, too. Was Dongwook already here before I came or just now?

Patting me on the shoulder, Siwon pulled Dongwook up from the chair, turning to Yunho with a smile. “I’ll leave you two to talk. And please, TALK. Yunho-hyung, Jaejoong-hyung.”

Once the doors closed, Yunho placed his hand on my shoulder, pushing me down to sit on the edge of the bed. “Why were you running?”

“I just… I suddenly remembered I forgot to do something… I need to go somewhere. I have to leave now, Yunho.”

“You know you’re not good at lying, Jaejoong-ah.”

Pursing my lips tightly together, I look him in the eye. “Actually, I just drop by to congratulate you two.”

“Congratulate about what?”

“I heard...” I’m so glad I finally managed to keep the tears away and I’ve gained my control again, making my voice steady. “I know about you and Siwon. And I just want to tell you that I’m happy for you… that you found him… you’re both my friends…” Before I realize it, I was already mumbling.

“What? Wait a minute… are you saying that you think Siwon and I are together?! He let out a soft laugh.

“I just don’t think that, Yunho.” I glared at him, feeling being mocked at.

“And why would you think that?” Yunho leaned back a bit, crossing his arms on his chest.

“The whole school knows… and the both of you have been hanging out A LOT lately. I seldom have the time to be with you. Every time we have a free time, he’s there pulling you away from me, asking you to do teach him that and teach him this.” Words just kept coming out and up to this time, I haven’t realized that I’ve just pour my heart out a bit for Yunho to see.

“Now, I’m sure you’re jealous.” I remembered what Suri said about Garfield’s wild smile when I look up to Yunho and found him grinning like an idiot.

“So what if I am!” My admittance wasn’t something he was expecting. “What if I’m jealous of Siwon because I love you and it scared me to death to think that I might have lost you because…”

My words were lost as I soon melted in Yunho’s arms. He had pulled me into a kiss, just a slight touching of our lips. Closing my eyes, I returned the kiss, not pushing or running away like the first and second time. I pulled his face closer when I felt him pulling back. between the kiss, I welcomed Yunho’s searching tongue in my mouth, urging him in my own not so blunt way to continue. At one point my mind told me to stop or Siwon might saw us but a bigger part of me was just too overwhelmed by the feelings Yunho’s giving me.

Pulling apart but keeping our foreheads touching, Yunho stared down at me straight in the eyes making my blood rushed to my face. “Say that again, Jaejoong-ah”

Managing to keep my breathing steady after that mind blowing kiss, I told him what I wanted to hear. “I love you and I want to be with you.”

I think I saw a tear at the corner of his love filled eyes before he gave another smack on the lips.

++++++++++++++++++++

“So, you two aren’t really together?” I pushed again, the 3rd time I’m asking the same questions.

Yunho looked titled his head down a bit to see my face. We we’re lying down against the sofa bed Dongwook gave him plus some more things. Apparently, he and Siwon weren’t alone in his house and Dongwook was actually with them. And the reason for their half ness? Well, sweaty and all they’ve decided to just removed their shirts while moving things here and there inside Yunho’s nice little home. And now that I’m paying more attention looking around, there we’re actually a few new things inside like the very sofa bed we’re lying down on.

Chuckling, Yunho tightened his arms around my waist, pulling me closer against his muscled body. “How many times do I have to tell that no, we are NOT together.”

“Then what’s with Yunho baby stunt he pulled off earlier.” I pouted, remembering the incident earlier. Yunho’s grinned grew wider as he watched my jealousy show on my face. I’ve already let go of all my hesitations, my shyness was slightly put aside as I hold on to him as we walked to the sofa.

“Ah… that… I’ll have to ask him about that one.”

Then there was silence that I broke off when I spoke again. “Yunho-ah…”

“Hmm?”

“I’m sorry.”

“For what?” I smiled when his hands moved in my head, brushing away a few strands of hair that was falling to my face.

“For hurting you, for being stupid all this time.”

“Ah. I’ve learned to love you even your stupidity.” I hit him lightly with that remark.

“Yah! I’m trying to be serious here, you know.”

“Do you know how much you’ve just made me happy?” He suddenly asked.

“Neh. I’m just as happy.” I cringe at how mushy I think I sounded like.

“That makes the both of us happy then. Two happy idiots.”

Placing one arm on the arm of the chair, Yunho planted another kiss on the top of my head. “And you’re mine now.”

“Just make sure you are too.”

“I’ve always been yours, Jaejoong. Always been yours.”
