Chen's Confession

All the other 16 members as well as their company's various staff accompanying them for their dinner feast were completely dumbfounded and shocked to see the two youngest members kiss in a room filled with at least 25 people.

Even Jihun couldn't hide his astonishment, he was so shocked that he just stood still not even kissing back but after coming to his senses, tried pushing Chen away. Whereas, although the boy was drunk, he was still stronger than the maknae, Chen literally had to tiptoe to match the height difference, Jihun being taller than him despite being younger.

Chen broke the kiss, still in his drunken state, realizing Jihun was not kissing back, thus spoke in his slurry drunken tone almost ranting "YAH! LEE JIHUN!! Are you a kid? Don't you see me? My oh so obvious feelings for you? Why are you so dense, huh? Ani~ even kids these days know better! Jihun-ah~ Please, look at me, huh?!"

Jihun dumbfounded, just stood there confused at Chen’s remark but as the latter continued his drunken rant, Jihun still took it as some drunken lies, whereas one says their most valued feeling when drunk. Chen continued with his chatters, finally coming to a conclusion "I LOVE YOU PABO-YA!! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT!!" Jihun’s eyes softened at Chen’s remake whereas the other members were teasing, clapping, hooting and cheering for Jihun to accept the confession.

But Jihun, despite all the support shown, shook his head saying "Hyung you're just drunk. So first, let's take you to our room and when you're fine, sober, we’ll talk more about it, ok?!" As soon as Jihun finished his reasoning, Chen ,who was defeated by the alcohol, left his body to fall on Jihun's chest head first, Jihun being taller than Chen. Jihun’s hand automatically moved forward to catch hold of the latter as he was knocked out from drinking too much.

Young finally spoke up, silencing the loud audience in a worried tone "Jihun-ah, just take him to your room first then we'll see what's to be done next about this matter tomorrow, And please take care of him for me, huh?!"

Jihun just nodded his head, busy putting Chen’s one hand around his neck and caught the elder by his waist. Jihun was about to leave for their room when he heard Hajoon call out for him saying "Yah!! Lee Jihun, be careful! Don’t make too much noise and don't stay up late, you see we have a very busy schedule for tomorrow."

To which Young who was talking to Ten and Jihun who stopped in his track, gave Hajoon the worst death glares, as he giggled while playfully hitting Mark, who was sitting next to him. Finding the moment right, Ren added to teasing Jihun "Yeah~ do it quickly and quietly Jihun-ah. You see I and Jino are just next door and we play on sleeping early." Ren and Hajoon bursted out laughing and giving high fives to each other while the others who were finally able to collect themselves from Chen’s actions were heated up again by these two mischievous members.

Jihun left the members behind leaving the dining area heading for their hotel room shouldering and struggling all the way as Chen was too heavy for poor skinny but tall Jihun, to carry him alone all the way back to their room.

Jihun barely closed the door with the help of his left leg upon reaching their room and threw Chen who was fast asleep on the bed as he could not handle his weight anymore. Tucking his beloved Chen hyung properly in bed and covering him with a blanket as the elder boy looked cold according to Jihun.

Jihun went for a hot shower and released all the pent up stress of that long day that he had with the help of a hot shower. After done with his shower Jihun came out to see Chen sleeping like a baby, muttering things just like a baby’s babbling in his sleep, Jihun just smiled at his cuteness watching the scene with a sweet smile. After applying some lotion he slept alongside Chen as they had joined their two beds to make it one big bed.

Next morning Chen woke up with a killer headache. He slowly opened his eyes and had no idea what caused the headache as he was just drinking a glass of juice that his Hajoon hyung had offered but actually ending up becoming a victim to Hajoon’s nasty trick. Chen noticed Jihun sleeping peacefully besides him looking like a little baby cuddling with his pillow who was sound asleep.

Chen couldn't just remove his eyes from Jihun and his visuals which caused Jihun to wake up, due to feeling that he was being stared at saying "Hyung, am I that good looking!!?" Self complementing with a smirk. This caused Chen to blush at being caught but he replied saying "N-no!! Not at all....But was just thinking, how soundly did you sleep to drool over your pillow." Chen ends up teasing Jihun.

Wiping the drool sheepishly, Jihun with a smirk still on asked Chen “So Chen-ah, do you remember what had happened last night??”

This got Chen confused, so he just shook his head saying No and caught hold of his head, which was hurting. Jihun, seeing that, with a worried look asked Chen in concern "Hyung are you ok?! You were drunk yesterday! So are you feeling nauseous or something??" Chen was completely confused at Jihun's remake, never having drank alcohol ever before in his 15 yrs of life, thus ended up asking what had happened yesterday?? So Jihun explained all that went down yesterday, causing Chen to blame Hajoon for the events.

But Jihun had just explained about Hajoon mixing the alcohol prank, not about Chen’s confession, thus Chen was completely unknown about that fact. So Jihun now knew that Chen also had feelings for him and that Jihun was just not having one sided feelings. Chen had a high possibility of finding out about the whole truth but Jihun wanted to confess his feelings to the elder first, having fallen for Chen at first sight, when he had entered their dorm to see his long lost friend standing in their living area.

They got out of bed, getting dressed up as they had gotten a call from their manager hyung to wake them up for their busy day. They left the room and headed downstairs for the waiting cars when they met the NoRen couple, they were given a mischievous smile by Ren to which Jihun replied with a glare. As Chen was unaware of the situation he just congratulated them for being official and Jino being a kind hyung thanked him in return while giving him his eye smiles.

They spotted the rest of their hyungs already seated in the cars so these four rushed, sitting in the car which had Young, Ten, Yuka, Win and now of course the NoRen and ChenJi couple. They started their busy day which had many interviews in Bangkok as they were from a very known Idol entertainment company and the whole world of Idol fans were waiting for their debut, so were they themselves.

They had not just finished one interview when they were again packed into the car and after a long drive in the heavy traffic, they had another interview to get over with, this went on until late in the night when they had finally reached the hotel after their long day of hard work.

They were then instructed by Young to come back down in an hour to the dining area for their dinner, which they all agreed as they were all famished, thus headed to their rooms to clean up as soon as possible. Jihun was totally beat, he was asked to show off his popping dance in many interviews so he was practically burned out.

When they reached their room, Chen said "Yah, Jihun-ah~ I'll take a shower first, ok?!" Jihun just gave an ok sign as his agreement, he was too tired to even speak and just laid on the bed lifeless with his headphones on while listening to soft piano pieces as those were songs that calmed him down and helped him keep his mind thoughtless, in peace. Not knowing as he was so into the soft piano songs that he fell asleep in the same position with his face stuffed into his pillow.

When Chen came out from the shower he saw Jihun sleeping. So he went over to wake him up because Jihun was next in line for a shower but as Chen was shaking the latter he suddenly was pulled down and was taken into an embrace by Jihun with his eyes still closed, half asleep Jihun said "Hyung~ Let's just go to sleep. I'm too tired to even get up~~"

Chen had a bright red tint across his face, basically he was blushing but just let Jihun do whatever he wanted as he lay comfortably within Jihun's embrace, himself too lazy to get up and go down for dinner, he thought if he was to face Jihun now he would not know what to do next and just embarrass himself. Jihun's right arm acted as a pillow to Chen as he was tightly being held by the younger who was fast asleep.
