Changmin's P.O.V.


"What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked looking at Yoochun. We were in his car, on our way home. Or at least that's where I assumed we were going. I was taken aback by his action, but now, after finally realizing what happened, I was becoming mad. Why did he act like that? And why didn't JaeJoong do anything? I was confused and I wanted some answers. But most of all, I was angry. I was having a great time and he decided to come and ruin it for me?

He didn't say anything, he just kept his eyes on the road. I stared at him, confusion filling my mind as I got angrier with every second passing.

"Why did you do that?" I asked again. He looked like he wasn't going to answer me. The fact that he was ignoring me after what he did made me furious.

"Yah! Yoochun!" I screamed, causing him to stop the car and look at me. His eyes were still full of anger that I didn't understand, making me wince a little bit. He was really starting to freak me out. He didn't say anything, he just stared at my eyes, like he was expecting to see something in them, some kind of answer.

After a minute or two I finally glanced away, feeling uncomfortable. Still feeling his gaze on me I shifted in my seat and half-turned my back to him as I looked out of the window. All I wanted now is for him to start the engine again and drive home. Actually, all I wanted was for him to stop looking at me like that.


Yoochun's P.O.V.


As he turned away from me I watched him for a couple of moments and then glanced away, looking straight ahead of me. Finally I started driving again, focusing on the road in front of me. The rest of the ride passed in silence.


Junsu's P.O.V.


"Yoochun!" I called as I heard the door close. I didn't expect Changmin to come home this early, so I assumed it was just hyung. Since no one replied I went out of the kitchen.

"Oh, Changmin, you're home too?" I asked smiling, but my smile quickly disappeared as I saw the two of them. Yoochun just stood there, looking everywhere but at us. He looked like he was thinking about something, but I could clearly see he was trying to calm down. Changmin on the other hand stared at him for a moment, then glanced at me and finally quickly ran upstairs. He slammed his door shut like he was trying to emphasize his anger. He didn't need to do that, his look told me everything.

"You didn't..." I gasped looking at Yoochun, as realization hit me. Yoochun just sighed and went into the living room. I followed him. Changmin had every right to be angry, but I couldn't help but feel satisfied. I didn't want him to hang out with JaeJoong and Yunho, deep down I didn't want to. I knew it was wrong, that's why I fought it, I didn't want to be like Yoochun, at least not when it came to this stupid rivalry.

I was never like him, I never fought. People would think it was because I was a coward, a crybaby, not capable of fighting. Maybe they were right, but that wasn't the only reason. I hated the whole thing. It made me lose my best friends. Yes, ten years ago we were best friends. Especially Jae and I. Okay, he always loved to hang around and spend time with Yunho, but I was always the one who loved to be around him. I never wanted it to end like this. But hyungs started it all and after ten years I knew there was no turning back. That's why Changmin shouldn't spend time with them. I agree with Yoochun on that one. The difference is that I know it's wrong and impossible to stop him, while hyung just... doesn't.

"Why Yoochun? I thought we agreed we'll talk to him when he comes home." I said looking at him as he flipped channels on tv.

"Well, I didn't talk to him and he's home now." He replied simply, not even looking at me.

"Stop it! This is not a joke!" I began to lose my temper. That rarely happened, but I knew it will work. Just like I expected, he looked at me.

"Junsu, I couldn't just stand there and let him become friends with wrong crowd." He said calmly.

"What wrong crowd? I swear I have no idea what you're talking about. JaeJoong and Yunho used to be our best friends. We used to spend all our time together, we used to be so close." I started. Every time I thought about it I felt frustrated. Maybe it was time for me to let it out finally.

"We used to be friends!" he yelled trying to stop me from further talking. He also emphasized the words 'used to', making me shake my head angrily.

"Yeah, used to... we'd still be if there wasn't for you." I blurted out and then quickly slapped my mouth with my hands. I never meant to say that. But it was too late.

Yoochun widened his eyes and stared at me for a moment.

"You're blaming me?" he yelled again. "You're blaming me for what happened? All I did was protect you, you... you..." he said jumping up from his seat and standing in front of me. I could tell he was trying to find the most offensive word possible, but he came up with nothing.

"What am I?" I daringly asked. I wanted him to say something he'll regret. Maybe because I was hoping it'll make us even. I wanted to take my words back, but I couldn't. Now all that could fix that was for him to say something equally horrible to me.



Yoochun's P.O.V.


I was looking for the perfect word... but then I noticed his smirk and knew exactly what he was doing. Well, my dear dongsaeng, that's not gonna happen. Not after what you said to me.

"Shut up." I said lowering my voice and stepping back. "I can't believe you're blaming me. For everything they did. I haven't started anything, they were acting like a complete bastards... I just... couldn�t take it." I said. Why am I telling him this? It looks like I'm making up exuses for myself and I don't need to exuse myself, I did nothing wrong. He should turn to them, to his 'best buddy' JaeJoong who punched him first. He should turn to his 'role model', Yunho, who picked so many fights with me, his hyung. I shouldn't have defended myself or what? Stupid Junsu.

Junsu looked at me. I looked back.

"I don't have anything to say to you. I have no regrets. If someone needs to apologize here it's them. And then I might consider forgiving them. Chances for that are incredibly low though." I smirked proudly and turned to leave the room. I stopped by the door. "Maybe you should talk to Changmin." I added quietly and with that went upstairs, to my room.


Changmin's P.O.V.


"Come in." I said quietly. I calmed down, but I was still angry at Yoochun. What gave him the right to act like that? I smiled as I saw Junsu slowly walk into my room. He looked sad and apologetic, although he had no reason for that. He shouldn't feel bad for his brother, but it looked like he was. It made me even more angry. Junsu walked in and closed the door behind him, then just stood there for a moment.

"Umm... are you okay?" he asked softly. I could tell he was feeling embarrassed for his brother. He was trying to straighten things for him. I needed some answers. I doubted Yoochun will give me some, so maybe Junsu was the right person for that.

"No." I answered simply. There was no point in hiding how I felt.

"I'm sorry." He replied.

"You have nothing to be sorry about."

"Yeah, well... I'm sorry Yoochun acted like that." I smirked and sighed.

"I know he's your brother, but you shouldn't come here and apologize instead of him."

"I know." He said quietly and looked down. I remained silent for a moment.

"But... maybe you can explain it to me." I finally said. "Why was he acting like that?"

"Actually, that's why I came." He said. Well, you could of said so in the first place. Junsu hesitated for a moment, then moved further into my room and sat down on my bed, next to me. "You shouldn't hang out with JaeJoong and Yunho." He said finally.

"What?" I raised my voice. "What is wrong with you guys?" I asked again, getting angry at Junsu now.

"Wait." He said calmly. "Let me explain." I opened my mouth to protest, but then changed my mind. I needed some answers anyway.


Junsu's P.O.V.


I hate Yoochun. I hate him for making me do this. He should've done that instead. I feel so bad, so dirty, I know it'll look like I agree with Yoochun, like I'm part of it. Oh well, I am, but not in that way. I never wanted it to be like this. I guess I have to tell him now. I know it probably won't mean a thing, Changmin will do whatever he wants to do. I felt stupid and embarrassed, but I started my story...


Changmin's P.O.V.


After he finished I couldn't help but laugh.

"Are you saying that he dragged me out of there because of some stupid rivalry thing?" I asked unbelievingly. "What is he? Eight?" I added. Seriously, that was so childish. I looked at Junsu. He was looking down. I have the feeling this was something he didn't want to do. And by the way he was telling that story I knew he didn't want to be a part of it. It made me even angrier at Yoochun. I can't believe this guy.

"Yeah... he's not the most mature person in the universe." Junsu replied chuckling. "But it's not entirely his fault... he's not the only one who's in it afterall." He added quickly. I looked at him. I couldn't believe he was still defending him. Junsu really was a great guy. And a great brother. I don't think Yoochun knows that. That idiot.

I didn't know what to say. The whole thing was ridiculous. And I knew Junsu knew that.

"I don't want to be part of it Changmin." He said quietly and I felt like he's been reading my mind. "It's stupid and I don't know how we ended up like this. We used to be bestest friends. I always wanted to go back to that. But that's just not gonna happen and it's killing me." He said, then suddenly looked up at me. "You're the first person I told this." He said and looked down again.

I nodded. I understood. It must have been hard for Junsu, but I didn't get why he didn't fight it. I didn't say anything.

"You shouldn't hang out with them." He repeated again. I didn't understand him, one moment he's telling one thing, the next totally opposite. "I know I shouldn't tell you this and I know you probably won't listen to me. But for the sake of us all... please..." he said looking back up at me. "I just want it to stop. We've been avoiding fights for some time now. With you standing between us, it's gonna start all over again."

I still didn't dare to speak up. I understood what Junsu was saying, but I couldn't agree with him, I couldn't say that I will stay away from JaeJoong and Yunho.

"Well... that's all that I wanted to say to you." Junsu said standing up. "Don't give Yoochun a hard time." He added quietly and started walking to the door. Before he came out he spoke up again. "Think about it, please." I nodded as he left me staring at the closed door.


Yunho's P.O.V.


I came back inside and found Jae bowling. Alone. I was a bit surprised, but quickly walked up to him.

"Hey, where�s Changmin?" I asked. He looked at me.

"Let's go home."

"But..."

"Don't ask, just pick up your stuff... I'll wait for you in the car." He said shortly as he changed his shoes rapidly and went outside.


JaeJoong's P.O.V.


Why didn't I stop him? Why did I let him drag Changmin like that? You're an idiot Jae. I know I'm not afraid of fighting with Park Yoochun, I can always teach him a lesson. He shouldn't mess with me and people around me. Why didn't I react? I didn't want to cause a scene in the middle of bowling alley? Nah, we did that before... I didn't want people to think I'm fighting with someone over a guy? No, everyone already knows I'm gay. I didn't want Changmin to think bad of me? Exactly.

Maybe you won the battle Park Yoochun... but you certainly didn't win the war.


Yunho's P.O.V.


We reached JaeJoong's house. I sighed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Jae instantly asked. I faked a smile.

"Nothing, I just feel a bit tired." I lied. The truth was... I didn't want to come in. I knew JunKi will be there and after today... I needed to clear my head. Spend some time alone, away from him. Okay, maybe not exactly from him, but from him and JaeJoong together. I was jealous of JaeJoong. Sadly, I was. I was jealous of his relationship with hyung.

"Are you coming?" Jae asked as we stepped out of the car.

"Actually, I think I'm gonna go home." I replied.

"Oh... alright... then I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yeah, I'll see you." I replied managing another smile. JaeJoong smiled back. I knew he wasn't exactly feeling like smiling after what happened with Changmin and Yoochun, but I also knew that meeting Changmin gave him strength. He was actually going back to the old Jae we all knew. Jae before the-what's-her-name-again. That's right, she died for all of us after what she did to him. I don't like to remember her name, she's irrelevant now. Anyway, as I turned around and headed to my house I knew that JaeJoong was regaining his old strength. I knew Park Yoochun won't get away with this so easily.
