-Minho ?

Minho's eyes widened and he turned his head toward the girl.

-Yun Mi!

-Yun Mi? Are you Minho's friend by any chance? Jinki asked

-Oh! yeah sorry, let me introduce her! This is Yun Mi, my friend, the one I went to see the night I wasn't a...home...Yun Mi I don't think I need to introduce my mates..

-No of course! I know them!  Yun Mi laughed

-Thanks to have taken care of our impulsive Minho. Onew thanked the young girl

-You're welcome! He was one of my best friends so I was glad to see him again. I hope you didn't blame him too much when he came back home!

Awkward slience.

-No of course! But we were sooo worried! Key said while smiling, feeling embarrassed

Minho sent him a dark glare but Key tried to ignore his look.

Taemin felt jealous, the girl was pretty and sweet, but at the same time, relieved, she coudn't be Minho's new girlfriend, or he would have hugged her, or kissed her. He just looked happy to see her, but as a friend. Or he was hiding his game..... 

"But she was with him all night, what if.....no, no! Minho is not like this!!" Taemin thought   

-So what are you doing there ? Yun Mi asked

-We're celebrating a victory at Music Bank !

-Really ? Congratulations! I'm sorry I didn't watch, I would have cheered for you !

-Do you want to join us ? Minho asked

-Oh..erm... no... I don't want to intrude on your little party...

-Intruding? Of course not! Just come ! Minho said

-Thanks but it's better if you enjoy your night with your pals.

-Oh...ok...

-I'm sorry Minho, it will be for another day!

She patted his shoulder and gave him a quick hug.

"They look so close...pff ! What should I do? Apologize and beg him to take me back as his boyfriend? He may say no and think that I'm fooling around with him.... giving up ? That makes me feel miserable...Aish! I don't know! Love is too complicated!" Taemin thought

-So I gotta go !  Yun Mi exclaimed

-Bye bye Yun Mi! Minho waved at her

"I hate thinking that but Minho hyung is always right and when he said that I was jealous, I denied it but in fact it's true, I'm jealous of her...but she looks warm and friendly, who could hate her?"

-Good by Minhie! Yun Mi said and laughed

-Minhie? What's that ? And Minnie is usually reserved to Taemin ! Minho corrected

Taemin smiled.

-Oh is it? Well, I've called you like that hundreds of times in school, I can't change it now!! Yun Mi replied

Taemin frowned.

-Oh...Did I say something wrong? I'm sorry Taemin if I annoyed you. Yun Mi apologized

-Hmmm.. no no, don't worry !! Taemin reassured the young girl

-Cool! I'm relieved! So I can call Minho "Minhie" ?

-Ye..yeah!  Taemin laughed awkwardly

-Thank you! I really have to go, bye bye Minhie and Minnie !

-She is nice. Taemin admitted once Yun Mi had disappeared in the crowd.

-Hmm, yeah! Minho nodded

-You mean she's great !! Jonghyun replied

-Hmm. Taemin mumbled

-Minho, if she is not your girlfriend... well you should give it a try! Jonghyun smirked

-She..she's not my girlfriend! Minho stuttered

-I'm thirsty! Let's go to a cafe, I would sell my soul for a fresh drink! Onew added

They laughed and continued to walk. They found a lounge bar, a bit dark with dimmed lights. Once they were sitting on sofas around a coffee table, a waitress came and asked what they wanted to drink. Key and Taemin ordered a soft drink while the three others ordered various kinds of alcoholic drinks.

-Alright. So a beer, an apple juice,a mojito, a pina colada and a smoothie, it's okay? the waitress checked

She left and they waited some minutes while chatting. The waitress came back with their drinks.

-I can say that it's a perfect day! Jinki exclaimed cheerfully

-I'm back in a minute, I'm going to the bathroom! I...drank so much after Music Bank! Taemin said

-No problem, the others answered

They resumed their conversation while drinking. After some minutes Taemin came back and sat on his empty seat. He finished his apple juice and listened absently to his friends' conversation. The eldest ordered a bottle of soju and they didn't notice the number of shot glasses Taemin drank. It's only when he started laughing stupidly and rubbing his eyes that they noticed.

-This soju was really nice! Should we order another bottle? Taemin asked

-Ta...Taemin how many glasses did your drink? Jonghyun asked back

The boy shrugged comically and giggled.

-He can't stand alcohol! He only drinks soft drinks usually. Onew added

-What? He drank soju? Minho mused

Taemin's gaze was blurry and he ruffled his hair.

-He really is drunk!! Aish! That guy! Jonghyun said

-We should hurry and leave before Taemin does something stupid!

-Yeah.

They quickly paid the bill and left the bar. They walked as fast as they could, dragging Taemin who was laughing and looking around. They let him fall on the couch when they arrived at their flat. But he didn't stay there long, Taemin stood up and walked drunkenly toward the kitchen.

-Whoo.. drunk boy! Where are you going? Jonghyun asked

-Drink....thirsty....

-Oh...and just drink water! ok?!

Taemin came back with a glass of water, his hands were shaking lightly.

-Taeminnie, are you okay? Onew asked worriedly

-No problem ! Taemin chuckled but he felt tired, he dragged his feet and they got caught up in the corner of the carpet and he swung his arms to keep his balance. If Minho was quick enough to catch Taemin before he fell, he was also the one that got splashed with the content of his glass. Taemin was like a dead weight in his arms, on the verge of falling asleep. Minho dropped him on the couch and wiped the water dripping on his face with the back of his hand. He felt really annoyed, even if it was not a big deal.

-Yah! Watch what you're doing !! Minho said while whacking Taemin's head

-Ouch! Hyuuuuuung, it hurts!

-Minho stop! Take him to his bed and let him rest. Onew ordered

He grabbed Taemin's wrist, lifted him from the couch and took him to their shared bedroom.

-Ok Taemin, you put on your pajamas and go to bed! Understood?

But Taemin wasn't listening, he was looking blankly at Minho's wet hair.

-Hyung, your hair is wet... you're really sweaty...

-I'm not sweating! You soaked me with your glass of water...but listen, you....

Taemin giggled again for no reason and said:

-I love you... even when you're sweaty

-I'm not sweaty! Stop talking nonsense !!

-I'm serious ...

-Serious? You're drunk!

But Taemin came closer and closer to Minho, stood on his tiptoe and kissed him.

Minho's eyes widened, he took a step back but Taemin surrounded his waist with his arms, he leant his weight on Minho's body, the tall boy lost his balance because of that sudden weight on his arms, he staggered backward and fell backward. Minho's head hit the upper bed before both of them collapsed on Taemin's bed. Minho hissed of pain, Taemin noticed it and sluggishly the painful spot on Minho's head before kissing his forehead.

-I'm sorry... it's my fault.

-Taemin... Minho's voice was so soft, the boy on top of him felt like melting when he heard him saying his name.

Taemin couldn't resist. He kissed Minho. It was loving and sweet and Minho wished it would have lasted longer but his heart missed a beat and started beating like crazy when someone came in the bedroom.

-Minho! Is Taemin....WAAAAAAH! Jonghyun freaked out when he saw them.

Minho pushed Taemin aside, making him fall next to him on the bed. Minho stood up and said, embarrassed:

-D..don't think about something strange, I d..didn't plan this, he is just drunk and he fell on me, and made me fall on the bed!!

-Aaand he decided to kiss you... Jonghyun looked suspicious and dumbfounded

-Let him get in his pajamas...and sleep. Minho said

-No need...Jonghyun said

-Eeeh? Why?

-He is already asleep.

-What? Already? He turned his head and saw Taemin, curled up on his bed.

-I leave you with your boy, put a blanket on him or he'll be cold. Jonghyun said

-He is not MY boy! He is just drunk! Minho whispered angrily

-Hm hm...

He left the room, and Minho stayed alone with Taemin. After putting a blanket on the sleeping boy, he crouched down to look at his peaceful face. He played with one of his auburn locks.

"He is cute when he sleeps..... Aish....I'm in trouble, Jonghyun will for sure tell the guys about he saw..." Minho thought

He left the room and returned to the living room, his friends were still there but as soon as he came in the room, they turned their heads toward him and looked at him.

-Sooo...How's Taemin ? Onew asked

-He's sleeping. Minho answered but he knew it was a question to break the silence, he was sure Jonghyun had told Onew and Key about what had happened in the room.

"That's so unfair! Taemin is drunk, and I'm the one who gets all the problems! Jonghyun could have understood that he was not in his normal condition!

-Hmm.....Key mumbled

-Hyungs, I..I know what you think about what happened, I'm sure Jong hyung has told you, b...but he was drunk!

-Minho...

-And it was an accident!

-Minho! Minho! Minho! Calm down! Onew said, a little bit annoyed, we don't blame you for anything! You know, if... if you love him, it's better if we know! You don't have to keep it secret.

-I ...I don't love him, he doesn't love me, I said it was an accident!

Minho was about to leave the living room when Onew talked:

-You maybe don't like him, but he likes you.

-What? Jonghyun and Key yelled

Minho stopped dead in tracks and turned to face Jinki.

-How....do you know he loves me?

-He told me.

Onew had completely lost his friendly and soft side, he looked angry and disappointed.

-Ok, he loves me, so what? What should I do? Minho hissed

-You should...

-Oh but why I am talking about that with you? What do you know about our problems? It's one of your concerns.

-Our? Onew repeated

-Forget it...

Minho left the living room, went to the bathroom and slammed the door. The loud noise resounded in the whole flat and woke up Taemin . He opened his eyes, the alcohol's effect was almost gone, just a headache hitting his brain.  

He got out of his bed and went to the living room, nobody. But he heard voices in the kitchen, he came in and found Onew, Key and Jonghyun talking with low voices, when they saw Taemin, they stopped.

-Taemin! Do you feel better? Onew asked

-I've got a headache, but I feel fine, why do you ask?

-What? You don't remember? Key said shocked

-Huh...no..?

-We went to drink something after dinner and you drank a few glasses of soju, you were completely drunk!! Jonghyun explained

-Really!? I don't remember anything..urgh, but my head hurts....Hey! Hey! Did I do something when I was drunk?

-Erm....we just found you ....in your room... Jonghyun started

-What? WHAT? Taemin shouted, panicked

-...On top of Minho.... Jonghyun finished... kissing him.

-What? Are you kidding me? I can't have done something like this!!..ouch! My head, I shouldn't yell like this... Taemin said while holding the sides of his head.

-I swear it's the truth...

-It's so embarrassing! I'm so ashamed! Poor Minho, it was probably very awkward for him too! By the way, is it him who made that loud noise ?

-Yeah..Key nodded

-Why is he so upset?

-We had a little conversation...you know how he is, he gets angry or grumpy easily...

-It's about what happened in my room? I don't remember but I'm sure Minho didn't do anything! I was drunk, it's my fault!!

-But you love him, right? Key asked

-Huh? Who said that? I..I...

-Don't lie Taem', I told them.

-Hyungs ! I didn't mean to hide it from you, but you know, it's not an easy situation.. being with my bandmate, my friend...

-Hmm..I understand, Key said, smiling softly

Jonghyun felt embarrassed, he loved Key, but he didn't dare ...he was not really ready to tell it to his friends. His relationship with Key was like his secret garden, something he didn't want to share with anybody.

-And Minho?

-He knows I love him, he loved me too...or at least, he did... Taemin bit his bottom lip and said: I broke up with him, and now he probably hates me...

-Why did you do that? Key asked

-I was scared that our relationship would be exposed in newspapers... paparazzi are so nosy...

-I see....I don't think he hates you, he probably still likes you...Key said

-How do you know ? Taemin asked, puzzled

-He misses you, you saw how strange, grumpy and prickly he was these last days.

They didn't know that Minho was listening to the whole discussion behind the kitchen wall, sitting on the floor, his head against the wall.

"It's now or never, he still loves me, I still love him, get out of your hiding place and say that Key is right". He stood up silently and came in the kitchen.

-Tha..that's right, Key is right...

Minho's cheeks became red and hot, he was embarrassed to say it in front of his friends.

-What? But Yun Mi...Taemin said, shocked by Minho's appearance

-She is just one of the nicest girls I have ever met in my life, but she is just a friend...

-Does it means you don't hate me?

-No! Not at all... Sure, I was angry for a while but... I...I couldn't get you out of my head.

Taemin grinned widely and hugged Minho. The tall boy didn't wait long before hugging him back.

-I ...Taemin, Minho you are not the only one who have a secret, I have one too. Key said, almost whispering

-Key! Jonghyun exclaimed

Key didn't bother going into a long explanation and just kissed Jonghyun. This latter was so shocked that he didn't move. The 3 other guys were stunned.

-OMO, I never imagined that you... Minho whispered still hugging Taemin.

Jonghyun blushed madly, he didn't dare to look at his friends.

-Ouah, I'm the only one who is alone! Onew whined fakely

-Don't lie! We know you're in love with Yuni.

It was Onew's turn to blush.

-Yes...

-Guys, we're all in love! If Manager knew about it, he would kill us! Minho said

They laughed together when Taemin thought:

-Imagine what would happen to us if fangirls were to discover that Key and Jong hyung are together and that Minho and I are together!!

-On the bright side, fanservice will be easier to do! Key smiled and back hugged Jonghyun

-Yeah! Yet, we'll have to turn it down a notch or they will really suspect something, Minho chuckled

They left the living room and Minho and Taemin decided to spend some time alone in the bedroom while Key and Jonghyun went to the bathroom to have some time alone.

-----------------------

Minho's head was on Taemin's lap, the auburn boy was playing with the tall boy's locks absently. Minho's eyes were closed as if he was enjoying some rest, he raised his hand to Taemin's face.

-It was quite hard for us those past days.....isn't it? Taemin said

-And whose fault is it? Minho laughed

-Mine, Taemin pouted

-Say "hyung! I'm so sorry to have made you feel so sad during those days!" Minho ordered

-Hyung! I'm so sorry to have made you feel so sad during those days! Taemin said with puppy eyes

-Ahaha! So cute !

Taemin lowered his head in order to kiss Minho on the forehead.

-This is a "free of charge kiss" to apologize for my stupidity!

-Only with this little kiss? I can't forgive you like this Lee Taemin !

Taemin kissed Minho on the lips and Minho smiled.

-Now, you're forgiven! I'll save 

 ------------------------

Jonghyun and Key were standing face to face in the tiny bathroom.

-It must have been hard for Taemin and Minho.... Key muttered

-Yes... it's because of Taemin's shyness and Minho's cold attitude!

-I'm really lucky to be with you, I never had problems with you !

- Is it only the reason why you like me? Because you never have problems with me? Jonghyun whispered

-Of course not, it's because you're lovely, cute and I love everything about you: your voice, your body, your smile...

-You're so sweet!

-I know! Now come here, we're out to our friends, you can't tell me you're afraid of being caught!

Jonghyun chuckled and took Kibum in his arms and realized Kibum's heartbeat was quite erratic.

-What's wrong? Your heart is beating crazily.

-I'm just so happy and so excited! I still haven't fully processed what has happened.

Jonghyun nodded with a warm smile and kissed his boyfriend passionately, thus making it harder for Kibum to calm down his messy heartbeats... not that he minded it anyway.

 --------------------------

-When I think about what happened at the beggining....

-You mean when I didn't want to be around you? Minho asked...That was one of the worst mistakes in my whole life!

-Yes, but it's not your fault only, I really felt ill at ease with you at the beginning because I had never been so close to someone before. It was hard for me to act like best friends or even more. I wonder how we ended up together...

-Hmmm... I thought you were much better at this than me but well fate is incredible, hm?

Taemin Minho's head and seeing his sweet smile when he did so filled him with such confidence in their future and such happiness that he had troubles realizing everything was true. But he promised himself to enjoy every second he would spend with Minho.
