Chapter eighteen

"What's that on your neck?"

But before Felix can answer, they hear a lot of noise coming from the living room and someone shouting.

They rush towards the living room and see that the two friends are no longer seated.

They saw Hyunjin standing behind his chair, hands clenched on the back. Minho stands before it, angrily looking at Hyunjin.

"What's up," Felix questioned. "Well, great question. I just asked him something and he got all angry." 

"Maybe you should think before you speak, Hyunjin."

Felix and Jisung look at each other, confused. "Hyunjin, what did you do this time?" Felix asks the older one.

"Nothing, really. He's overreacting."

"I'm not overreacting, Hyunjin."

"Please. You totally are. Don't deny it."

"I. Am. Not," Minho answers, clenching his teeth.

"Maybe if you tell us what happened we could say if he did," Felix suggests, always in for some tea.

"Well, it's obvious that Minho was doing something just before we came in, right?"

"Hyunjin, shut up," Minho warns him.

"But," Hyunjin continues, ignoring Minho's warning. "When I asked him who it was, he didn't want to tell me."

"I have every right to do so."

"When I said I was texting one of our friends, he snatched my phone out of my hand."

"Again, I have rights too you know? And privacy law is one of those."

"Come on man you are really overreacting here."

"This doesn't explain why you are in this position though?"

"Well, I said I was gonna look through the apartment, finding this person who's obviously such a great kisser. Since they got Minho in this state," Hyunjin explained, turning around to face Felix.

Jisung quickly looks at the ground. Not only because of the blush that was now spreading across his cheeks, but also afraid that Hyunjin would see the same things Felix saw.

If he was being so troublesome and getting angry, he obviously doesn't want Hyunjin to know. 

"Then," apparently Hyunjin isn't done explaining yet. "then, he got kinda mad. Saying I shouldn't mingle in his business and that it was none of my business what had happened. And when I called him 'too possessive' he got mad and for a second I thought he was going to come back to his proposal to strangle me." Hyunjin says laughing.

"But he can't tell me it was nothing, because Mr Senseless is clearly showing some feelings for the first time ever."

You could see the anger on Minho's face blending with embarrassment. And a slight blush was seen on his face. Adorable, Jisung catches himself thinking.

"Hyunjin, I have to go buy some stuff for dinner and since you two probably both need to calm down, I think it's better if you leave now. You can come over again whenever you want." Hyunjin nods with a smile and Felix starts leading him towards the front door.

When the two had left the room, Jisung looks up in relief. But when he sees Minho, also still blushing, looking at him, he walks back to the bathroom after an uncomfortable laugh.

Minho lets himself fall down on the sofa, while Jisung, in turn, after locking the door, lets himself slide from the door onto the floor.

Hugging his knees, Jisung is smiling like a fool while resting his face on his knees. 

  Minho throws back his head and while looking at the ceiling, he tries to restrain his smile by biting his lip. 

  And no, he was not smiling because he had a small argument with Hyunjin or because his annoying friend had finally gone. 

He was smiling because Jisung was looking down, probably because he had realised that Minho didn't want Hyunjin to know what had happened between them. He was smiling because of how Jisung looked when he finally looked up; that near-permanent blush across his cheeks and nose and his red swollen lips and the hickeys that ran down his neck to his jawline. Which he was the cause of. 

  And last but not least, he was smiling at what had happened in the kitchen. 

  He had never felt the urge to show affection towards anyone, but because of Jisung, he had. 

  He had never wanted anyone's touch, but he had wanted Jisung's for far too long. 

  He, who in most people's eyes was insensitive, had never let himself go as far as he went for and because of Jisung. 

  He had never given anyone his first kiss...but you know what, not even twenty minutes ago, had happened. 

  And he had never, never thought that a kiss could make someone feel so good, and still not. 

  He rubbed his hands over his eyes and stood up. He walks to the hallway and sees Felix get his shoes out of the closet.

  "Felix, if you want I can go and do the shopping. I have to leave the house anyway." "Oh, okay. Thank you, Minho. I'll send you what I need then, okay?" "Okay," and with that, he left the house.

Felix watched his roommate until he had closed the door behind him and was officially gone. "Jisungieeeee," he yelled that very moment.

"Come out of your hiding place and let's talk about your oh-so-protective boyfriend," Felix yelled, the smile audible in his voice.

Arms crossed Felix stands in the middle of the hallway, looking at the bathroom and waiting for his best friend to come out.

Jisung slammed the bathroom door open and threw himself at Felix. After tackling his friend, he is right on top of him. Knees on both sides of Felix and his left hand along with Felix's head, he sits on his friend. Wrapping his right hand around Felix's neck, he says, "He. Is. Not. My. Boyfriend," He growls.

Felix, smirking, also calls up his wolf-eyes. "You have a really strong wolf, Ji. fascinating. You haven't even had your first full moon and already possess this much power and the ability to shift. I wonder where you get this power from," Felix said while calming down his beta.

Once he calmed Jisung down he let go of his wolf, he no longer need it. Jisung lowers his arm from Felix's neck. His hands now on either side of Felix he looks down at his best friend.

"I'm sorry, Lix. I...I don't know why I got so angry," and after saying that, he puts his head on Felix's chest. Holding his friend close, Felix begins to stroke his head. "It's okay, Ji. It's...erm...unique to see these sides of yours. Almost delightful." Jisung looked up at Felix and stands up after slapping his friend on his chest, wiping that smug smile from his face.

Felix stands up slowly and while wiping the dust from his buttocks he says, "I still want to hear everything about your protective boyfriend, though."
