Chapter 8 : Last talk
Guy next door
Every single day since their discussion, Jaejoong was thinking again and again about Junsu's comment. Hopefully he didn't see Yoochun since then. He didn't know what to do, say or how to act. He wanted to be nicer _for Junsu sake_ but he didn't want Junsu and Yoochun to become closer. Why ? No why at all, he just couldn't accept it. But he also knew he couldn't hurt his cutie and was ready to forget his pain to heal Junsu's.
-What are you doing Joongie ? Yunho asked.
-Thinking.
-I noticed. What about ? You almost looked intelligent, it was frightening.
-Hey ! I AM intelligent okay ?
-If you say so.
-I do.
-Then what about ?
-Nothing, he answered quickly with slight blush.
-Weird. Since when you hide something from me ?
-I don't hide anything.
-Then what is it that make you blush but you're not hiding from me ?
-Nothing I said.
-Oh so it's about a someone you don't want me to know. Or thought...
Jaejoong widened his eyes.
-I'm not a ert, you freak ! I'm not like you, gotcha ?
-Hai hai. Yunho answered uninterested.
-You …
He stopped himself as they reached Junsu's working place.
-Are we gonna pick Junsu up ? Yunho asked.
Jaejoong nodded and Yunho followed his look.
-Oh, Yoochun-ah !
-Yunho ?
The young man glanced his friend side.
-Jaejoong, he bowed.
First time meeting Yoochun since the 'discussion' he had with Junsu. Jaejoong noticed for the first time how polite and cautious the man was with him. Weird.
-What are you doing here ?
-I'm …
He eyed Jaejoong and coughed, uneasy.
-I was waiting for Junsu. He told me to wait outside as he dressed up.
-I see.
Yunho and Yoochun talked, Jaejoong too preoccupied with his observation of Yoochun behaviour. Why did he scolded him already ? His eyes were always so caring and gentle. No wonder Junsu was so attached.
Junsu came up and they all headed up to the apartments. In front of the door, Yoochun stopped and glimpsed at Jaejoong. He cleared his throat.
-I think I'll see you tomorrow, he said weirdly, ready to leave.
-You can come over to have dinner with us, Jaejoong stated.
Yoochun's eyes widened.
-Wow really ?
He looked to both Yunho and Junsu to get the confirmation that he wasn't dreaming.
-I mean it. If you want to of course, Jaejoong mumbled.
-Of course I do, Yoochun said immediately, making both Yunho and Junsu laugh it up.
Junsu opened the door and invited them all to come in. Him and Yunho went to the living room and sit in the couch. Yoochun followed them but was stopped by Jaejoong in the middle of the hall.
-I'm sorry, Jaejoong whispered.
-It's forgotten, you don't have to apologize.
-No, I have to. It was rough and stupid.
-At least you know it, Yoochun joked to release the tension, even if he was a bit afraid of the older's reaction.
Jaejoong chuckled a bit. Now he knew why Yunho refer to him as mood maker. He felt even more sorry for being so rude when Yoochun was making a lot of efforts. Since the beginning, he thought, guilty.
-I'm really sorry. I was afraid. Afraid you'll take Junsu away, Jaejoong admitted.
-You were ? So it did change ?
-I'll try.
Jaejoong nibbled his lips, like he did every time he was feeling stressed. Dreamily, Yoochun leaned against the wall.
-I know how suspicious you can be, but then you should have seen that the one who wants to take Junsu away is not me … Yoochun said amused.
He looked toward Yunho in the room, who wasn't caring about Jaejoong and Yoochun and contemplated the cute dolphin with smiling eyes.
Jaejoong eyes widened as realisation hit him.
-What ?! How ?! When ??! Jung Yunho, you tricked me ! And you call yourself a friend ? Trying to take away my cutie baby Su ???!!!
