Don't you dare propose to me in the future.

As the two of them laid together on the bed, "My body feels like it's floating!

I don't know where you learned doing this, but I swear if you do it to another man, I'll kill you!" A very satisfied Nikolai said after Jin was done massaging him.

Blushing, "Don't worry about that, though I did it to few guys before you, they were mostly gym friends, that's how I got good at it after all...But I Gotta admit, you moan the loudest out of all of them." Jin replied teasing him.

Frowning, "Did you get excited by Their moaning like you did with mine last time?" Nikolai asked, "Are you asking me if I got excited everytime i ran my hands through a hot semi-naked guy's body?" Jin replied teasing him more.

"HMPH WHATEVER! I bet you enjoyed giving those guys massages, you pervert!" Nikolai said angrily.

Chuckling, "You're jealous?" Jin asked, "Does it matter if I enjoyed it?" He added.

"I'm not jealous! I don't care." Nikolai said angrily.

Chuckling again, "If it makes you feel any better, I'll be honest with you.

I did enjoy it sometimes, but I think I enjoy it the most when it's your body I'm running my hands through." Jin replied smirking.

Flustered, "Of course! cuz I'm sexier than those guys, right?" Nikolai said.

Laughing, Jin pulled Nikolai into his arms as he said, "Of course you are, Niko!"

Suddenly, "Many men must've asked you to be Their boyfriend...how come you stayed single?" Nikolai Asked.

"I have high standards." Jin answered, thinking about the meaning behind that answer made Nikolai's heart pound faster, "So...do I meet those high standards?" He asked a little shy.

"Silly, you ARE the high standards! I told you I never stopped loving you." Jin replied chuckling.

"You cheeky bastard!...you know just what to say to make me feel like this." Nikolai said feeling more shy.

"Feel like what?" Jin asked cluelessly, "My heart is beating so fast like I'm running you idiot, and it's all your fault!" Nikolai replied, he looked at Jin as he said that and Jin smiled at him.

Jin took Nikolai's hand and placed it gently on his chest, "Woah!" Nikolai was so surprised to feel how fast Jin's heart was beating, it was faster than his, it felt like Jin's heart was going to explode in his chest.

"You have no idea how you make me feel." Jin said lovingly.

...Some time later...

"Hey, Niko? Wake-up...I made dinner." Jin gently shook Nikolai from his dreams, "Nghh, I Don't want....Another interview... John..." Nikolai started mumbling in his sleep.

Jin raised an eyebrow at him, "You're dreaming about John?" Jin questioned.

"John... it's okay...for a...man to...cry." Nikolai said before he started snoring lightly.

"John wanted to Cry?" Jin questioned again.

Curious, Jin sat besides Nikolai and waited, hoping that Nikolai would start talking in his sleep again, and sure enough he did.

"Why are you...giving me...your glasses?" Nikolai mumbled.

"Are you talking about John's glasses now?" Jin asked but Nikolai was back to snoring again.

...Few minutes later...

"I should wake him up already...But he looks so tired right now." for the past few minutes, Jin struggled to bring himself to wake Nikolai up.

"But he needs to eat too...Ugh, okay! I'll wake him up!" Jin said and began tapping gently on Nikolai's shoulder, "Hey, Niko! wake-up! I made you some food."

Slowly, Nikolai opened his eyes, "Ngh, Jinnie?...how long was I...Asleep?"

"Quite some time actually, I tried waking you up few minutes ago but you were having some sort of a dream...about John." Jin replied.

Surprised, "How did you know it was John?" Nikolai asked, "You were talking in your sleep, I never witnessed you do that before but I guess the dream bothered you enough, you were mumbling." Jin replied.

Sighing, "It did bother me, sometimes I would have a dream like this where I see a recollection of my time with John.

I'm not sure why I saw that dream today but it's been happening sometimes...ever since he died." Nikolai explained.

"Are you feeling guilty, that you didn't know he had cancer before he died?" Jin asked.

"I think so...he was struggling all alone and kept it to himself.

I felt sorry for him." Nikolai replied.

"You're so forgiving towards John even though he clearly put you through hell, it's very sweet of you." Jin said smiling.

Embarrassed, "Let's not talk about that...you said you made dinner right? isn't there some leftovers from yesterday already?" Nikolai asked.

"Yesterday everyone enjoyed dinner so much that there wasn't much leftovers actually, and remember we gave whatever was left to Ha-yoon." Jin replied, "I didn't tell her you were the one who asked to give her the leftovers, like you asked." he added.

"Oh Maaaan, I forgot about that!...ugh, no good deed goes unpunished." Nikolai groaned disappointed.

"I'm sure you'll love what I made today!" Jin said confidently, "Really? what did you make?" Nikolai asked.

"Baked eggs in tomato sauce, with kale!" Jin said enthusiastically, "Sounds like something easy to make." Nikolai replied interested.

"Yes, it's very easy and only took me about 30min to make, if you'd like to learn how to make it, I can show you later." Jin said.

"If I'm gonna learn how to cook, I gotta start from the very basics." Nikolai replied, "Don't worry! when I start teaching you, I'll teach you how to boil water first!" Jin replied back.

Offended, "HEY! YOU THINK I'M THAT USELESS THAT I CAN'T BOIL WATER?!" Nikolai shouted.

"You said the basics, so you know how to boil water?" Jin replied cluelessly.

"JUST SHUT-UP ALREADY!"

...Few minutes later...

"Is there gonna be any dessert?" Nikolai asked as he finished his eggs.

"Oh course, since nothing was left from yesterday's dinner, I had to whip something out." Jin replied.

"So what's it gonna be?" Nikolai asked, "I made chocolate mousse, I've put it in bowls, and I've placed some banana slices on top.

It's chilling in the fridge, so I'll go grab you one now." Jin said as he got-up, he walked to the fridge and grabbed two bowls.

He placed one with a spoon in front of Nikolai, then sat down to have his.

Nikolai felt the cold bowl in his hands for few seconds before he tasted the mousse, he immediately grunted in satisfaction.

"Damn...if I get to eat your cooking everyday, I won't care about gaining weight anymore, I'll gladly grow a belly again." Nikolai said before he continued tasting his mousse.

Overwhelmed with joy, Jin blushed deeply "You mean that?" He asked.

"Don't you dare propose to me in the future, I'll do it." Nikolai said while devouring what's in his bowl.

"W...whAAAAT?!" Jin was taken by surprise, he started panicking.

"How Many have you made?! I want more?" Nikolai demanded eagerly.

"Oh? OH! I'll get it for you!" Jin said leaping to his feet, he quickly brought Nikolai another bowl, then sat down watching him eat it.

"Jinnie, When the death threats thing is no longer an issue, I want you to stop being my bodyguard, and be my personal Chef instead." Nikolai said.

"Sure!" Jin replied happily, then he thought about something.

"Umm Niko! can I ask you something?"

"Yeah?"

"When I first became your bodyguard, the day Andrea got shot...I watched a video." Jin said, "About what?" Nikolai asked.

"A interview with an anonymous guy, it happened sometime after John's death.

it's obvious the guy was a hater of yours, he was saying some awful things about you, then said that the only reason John took you under his wing was..."

"Because I was his boyfriend? that's what you were gonna say, Jin?"

"It's just a rumor, I don't believe it." Jin said, "Good, because I never had that kinda relationship with John...that guy only said that because he hated us so much." Nikolai replied.

"That's why I'm mentioning this, I read some comments and people were surprised he's attacking John's character in the interview, and said that the anonymous guy must've been the same annoying guy who's been spreading other awful rumors about you." Jin said.

"Celebrity or not, you cannot expect to be loved by everyone.

Anyways...why are you curious about this guy?" Nikolai said asking.

"I wanted to investigate him, but I couldn't because I didn't know much about him and I had to stay by your side 24h so I couldn't go anywhere to start investigating...to see if he had anything to do with the death threats." Jin replied.

"I see...well, during the time that John Crawford was alive and training me as his student, Many people saw our relationship as an odd one.

Everyone knew that John was quite the straight white man, so they were surprised he took care of me, and made sure I became an actor so quickly.

And just like many were surprised, some were envious, especially one aspiring amateur actor who happened to be a bigger fan of John Crawford than Julian and I.

And no matter how hard that actor tried to grab John's attention, John ignored him, so the guy ended-up hating John eventually." Nikolai explained.

"Why would John hate the guy? is this actor the same anonymous guy in the interview?" Jin asked.

"Yeah, it's him.

John couldn't stand him, especially after That guy in order to catch John's attention started stalking him and tried to get into his house once.

He also stalked me, he throw rocks and even a brick at me! thankfully Andrea did whatever he could to protect me back then, we managed to get that guy jailed for couple of weeks, and had a restraining order against him.

But things continued to get worse with that guy, until John's death when things quieted a little.

But one day, that interview happened.

That pitiful guy came back, started saying all kind of crap about me and John, he said John Crawford was secretly gay and that I was his very much younger boyfriend.

He said I was a victim of John and said it was only naturally John would choose me as his student because I was young dumb and broke.

He said John was a predator, that he's a horrible human being and the only reason people love him is because he's a good actor... and stuff like that." Nikolai explained.

"Wow, he's a dedicated hater...even when John died?!" Jin said surprised.

"Yeah, and I wouldn't be surprised if he had anything to do with the death threats." Nikolai replied.

"Do You think the guy would've hired snipers to kill you?" Jin asked, "He hated me sure...so it would make sense he'd threaten me, but I doubt that wuss would hire snipers." Nikolai replied.

"But you said he threw a brick at you!" Jin said, "Bricks and bullets are two different things." Nikolai replied.

"Still, given the right opportunity I'm sure he'll try to hurt you with more than just a brick." Jin said.

Suddenly, "Jin... about the sniper incident, I'm starting to think about something." Nikolai said.

"What you're thinking about?" Jin asked.

"Now that we had this conversation about that hater guy, I wholeheartedly believe that he was the one who spread the death threats in the first place.

I think you might be right that he can try to harm me with more than just bricks and rocks, but that's why i believe that he's not the one behind the sniper incident." Nikolai replied.

"Why exactly Niko?"

"That guy, when it comes to physical harm...he wouldn't do it from afar, he won't hire a sniper when he can do it himself."

"You mean...he'd rather hurt you himself?" Jin questioned.

"Yeah...which means whomever was behind the sniper incident, was probably someone else." Nikolai replied.
