"why am i doing this again?" Ljoe asked as he stood outside the practice studio with Chunji, Ricky and Changjo..

"because you are the closest to niel hyung and CAP will surely tell the truth than let you have niel" ricky said grinning

"and you are ok with this?" ljoe turned to chunji..

"common..i trust you..plus if ricky is right, he shuts up and we catch those two" chunji smiled

"you..make sure CAP doesn't kill me.." ljoe now turned to the maknae who only gave him a thumbs up....

---------

meanwhile inside the practice room...

"where are they? they are taking too long.." niel whined as they wait for the rest of the members who went out to get something to eat

"they are probably just taking their time walking..you know how slow chunji and ricky are" CAP smiled as he sat beside the main vocal and landed quick kiss on his lips

"yah! what are you doing..someone might see you" niel hit the leader's arm playfully

"so? why can't we just tell them already? it's been half a year babe" CAP replied

"we have talked about this.. we're telling after the comeback ok?" niel said with pleading eyes "plus you know since we hid it from them, we will never hear the end of it if we tell them now...they just might get distracted from the preparations.."

CAP nodded understanding what his boyfriend said "they might already know thought..you know those kids are smart..especially ricky"

the leader wanted to kiss niel again but then he didn't get to as the door opened and the boys walked in...

"hyung we bought you guys food too..eat before we resume practice" changjo handed the bag to their leader who nodded a thanks..

ljoe took a deep breath and held the rose in his hand tightly..."niel...can..can we talk?" he asked nervously...

"oh sure hyung..you want to talk here or outside?" niel asked smiling

"uhmm.. here is ok..let's just go by the window...by the way i saw this ..and i remembered how you liked white roses so i got one for you" ljoe handed him the rose and led niel by the window...

CAP was observing them although his face was expresionless...

Ricky and Chunji was observing CAP's reaction...

Changjo positioned himself between where CAP was and where ljoe and niel was so that he can block the leader incase he turns ballistic...

"so what do you want to talk about?" niel asked stuffing some kimbap in his mouth

"actually..i..i have thought about it..and...i....." ljoe was stuttering...

"good acting love" chunji praised the other in his head... "you can actually act"

"you what?" niel asked again

"i ..i love you...." ljoe said and then bit his lips... CAP suddenly perked up and ricky noticed as he poked chunji then pointing at the leader who has already stopped eating and was already staring daggers at ljoe

"hyung..." niel was speechless...of all people..ljoe knew that niel likes CAP..but what is he doing now

"i have thought about it..i know that you like someone else..but ..i love you niel..." ljoe moved forward prompting the younger one to move back until his back was against the wall and ljoe's face was only inches away from his own... "please...give me a chance..."

CAP suddenly stood up, and that was changjo's cue to get ready just in case...

when ljoe was about to kiss the stunned niel CAP figuratively flew to where they are and yanked ljoe away..luckily changjo was fast enough to catch him

Ricky and Chunji were just watching the whole things...

"what the hell ljoe?!" CAP yelled at him

"i should ask you that hyung..what the hell?!" ljoe answered back.. he knew he was digging his own grave but they have gone this far already

"what were you doing to niel?!"

"confessing?"

"you can't!"

"why not?"

"because..."

"niel is single..he doesn't have a boyfriend..and i'm his best friend..so why can't i ask for a chance?!"

Ricky and Chunji were holding  back their laughter as they looked on the exchange.. mostly because CAP never got this angry at anyone ever...not even when they messed up the choreography.. he looked like a mad bull at the moment

"what about chunji! you like him right?" CAP used the chunji card which they have predicted he would use

"no..chunji and i are just friends..brothers..i love niel" ljoe answered

CAP looked at chunji hoping he would tell him that it was a lie but the visual only nodded at ljoe's statement which angered the leader more...

"guys...stop fighting..." niel's senses came back and he placed himself between cap and ljoe

"ljoe hyung...mianhae..but you can't love me..and you know i can't love you..." niel said sadly

"why not? i'll help you forget that guy you like... just give me a chance..." ljoe said sadly

"didn't you hear him..he said no" cap interjected

"what is your problem anyway? why are you even in here..this is between me and niel..even if you are our leader..i don't think you need to be a part of this conversation" ljoe spat..he was actually afraid now as he knew he was pushing CAP's buttons more...

"you...you!" CAP pulled ljoe by the collar "you can't have niel!" he yelled to his face

"wae?!" ljoe yelled back...

"because...." CAP paused.. he knew he can't tell...he promised niel.. but ljoe was really pushing it

"because CAP hyung is my boyfriend..." niel said..sighing after

everyone turned to him with wide eyes... CAP released Ljoe and walked to niel

"i'm sorry ljoe hyung..i'm sorry guys.. we didn't want to tell you because we didn't want any distractions for the comeback...." niel explained "ljoe hyung..i know you don't mean what you said..you like chunji hyung right? you can't be in love with me... "

no one talked after that... the room was very quiet if a mouse squeeked you can hear it clearly...

"finally!!!! " Ricky broke the silence.. "see..i told you..i was right.. they are dating..i was right!" he screamed as he danced around chunji earning confused looks from niel and CAP

"glad that's over and i am still alive" ljoe huffed making his way over to chunji who hugged him...

"what does that mean?" CAP asked changjo who sitting close to them

"well....." changjo began as he told them about ricky's theory...

------------flashback------------------------

"ahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!" ricky pulled his hair as he shouts in the middle of the living room earning confused looks from Ljoe, Chunji and Changjo

"wae? what's wrong?" changjo asked 

"i can't take it anymore... why won't they tell us that they are together????????" ricky kicked the ground pouting like a baby

"nugu?" chunji asked this time

"CAP hyung and Niel hyung duh.. don't you even notice???" ricky said exasperated

" are they together? really? how come no one told me?" ljoe pouted "how can niel keep this from me? i thought we were bestfriends" he pouted some more

"it's because they are only together in ricky's head " chunji said laughing

"ani! i swear those two are just hiding it! CAP hyung keeps tons of niel's pics.. he cares for hims extra well and he snaps at anyone who does skinship with niel that is not him....i swear i am not making this up....you guys need to help me make them admit that they are together!" ricky said like a maniac as he starts planning in his head the things they need to do to prove his feeling about CAP and Niel.....

----------------end of flash back--------------------------

"so you planned all this to prove ricky isn't delusional??" niel asked

"yep..." changjo answered

"and you..i thought you were my bestfriend..how can you play me like that?" niel pointed to ljoe

"mianhae...ricky won't shut up about it..and i also wanted to know coz i didn't like the idea that you were hiding something from me" ljoe explained

"so..this is ricky's idea huh..." CAP said as he looked at ricky who by this time was looking scared at his hyung

"well..coz..you guys are being overly affectionate and you always go together..and it's just..clues everywhere..." ricky laughed nervously

"ljoe almost gave me a heart attack and i can't say anything because i promised niel...now...come here ricky...come to hyung...." CAP stood up calling for the boy

"no..you'll kill me..." ricky said as he stuck his tongue out and started running around as he got chased by the leader...

"well congratulations you..i'm happy you are finally together" ljoe said as he, chunji and changjo sat beside niel as they watch their leader chase ricky

"thanks..how about you..when are you making it official?" he asked ljoe and chunji...

"actually...we already are..." chunji raised his and ljoe's hand showing their couple rings

"yayyyyy... now there's only one couple left..." niel said as they turned to changjo

"soon hyung..soon" changjo grinned as he thought of plans to ask ricky out...

"hyungs..changjo helppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp" ricky screamed as he was caught by CAP and was now getting tickled to death...

the others only stared at them before laughing out loud....

just like that..there were no more secrets between teen top...
