“Get out.”
“What?”
“I said get out,” Kibum repeats quietly. “Did I fucking stutter?”
“Kibum, don’t be like this.”
“Jonghyun, I’ve said it before. If you fucking cheat on me again, I will beat your dumb ass. But I actually feel sorry for you,” Kibum says as he sits on the couch, unmoving, and hair covering his eyes. “So just, please, leave.”
“Kibum, please,” Jonghyun practically begs. “I still love you. It was a mistake.”
“You good for nothing, little-” Kibum stops himself and sighs. “I love you, Jjong. That’s the problem. But not as much as before.” Kibum pushes himself up from the couch and heads to the door of his apartment. He opens it. “Now, get out.”
iii. gravity - sara bareilles

“Taemin?” Minho’s eyes widen as he sees Taemin on his doorway, soaked from the rain, and tears hidden by the dripping water from his hair. “What happened?”
“I’m sorry, hyung,” Taemin says, shaking-from the cold, and from the emotions building up inside of him. “I’m really sorry.”
Minho pulls Taemin inside, and shuts the door. “Who in their right mind would come all the way here without an umbrella at this rate? Taemin-ah, what’s wrong with you?”
“I needed to see you, hyung.” Taemin’s sobbing is obvious now.
Minho purses his lips and wraps an arm around Taemin, his free arm patting Taemin’s hair gently. “Don’t be stupid, okay, Taemin?”
And Taemin lets himself cry on Minho’s chest, because he knows Minho doesn’t mind, because he knows he’s forgiven, because he knows that Minho will always be there.
iv. wherever i go

“I guess this is it,” Jinki says with a bright smile. “This is the end.”
Kibum rolls his eyes, fixing Jinki’s tie underneath his toga. “Hyung, we’re graduating. No one’s going to die.” As he continues to fix Jinki’s excuse of a clean and pressed formal attire, he sees, from the corner of his eyes, as Jonghyun cries onto Minho’s chest.
“Hyung,” Minho starts, patting Jonghyun’s back. “Your eyes will get red. You’re going to look bad on your graduation photos, and I’m sure you wouldn’t want that.” Jonghyun only sobs harder, clutching on Minho’s toga.
Taemin tries prying Jonghyun’s fingers off of Minho’s clothes. “Jonghyun hyung,” he says with a small frown. “You’ll ruin Minho hyung’s suit.”
Jinki looks at all of them, one by one, his smile never leaving his face, thinking that the three years in high school he spent with them were the best years of his life.

-- onkey ; 296w.
They were going to do everything. They were young and they had their whole lives ahead of them. They had time. It’s not too late, Jinki thought as he looked out of the window of the moving train.
As he arrived at his destination-Daegu, as it read on one of the signs at the train station-he ran as fast as he could to catch the next bus that stopped close to Kibum’s house. And when he got there, bag clutched close to his side, he knocked loudly on Kibum’s front door. It was five seconds after, and he didn’t hear anyone answering. So he knocked louder, rang the doorbell four times, and knocked some more.
The door finally started to open. “Can’t you goddamn wait?” the familiar voice said. Kibum stopped moving when he saw who was standing on his front step. “What are you doing here? More importantly, how did you get here?” he asked, frowning. “Did Jonghyun give you my address? That prick, I told him to shut up about it.”
Before Kibum could say anything else, Jinki cut him off with a kiss. It was soft and sweet and every memory came rushing back to Kibum in seconds. “Let’s go,” Jinki merely said after he pulled away.
“Do you mind if I ask where?”
“To fulfill my promises. Do you remember?” Jinki replied. “I told you I’d take you places. I need you back, Kibum. We can get away from it all.”
“You’re an idiot, you know that?” Kibum said raising an eyebrow. But he saw the pleading and sincerity in Jinki’s eyes, and his heart skipped a beat-just like every time he looked at Jinki before. He turned from Jinki and started back inside his house. “Let me pack.”

“Hyung,” Taemin starts, glancing up at Jonghyun who is sitting across the table from him. “You have to believe in something.”
Jonghyun brushes his thumbs on the sides of his mug, still warm from the freshly-brewed coffee inside. “I can’t believe in anything anymore, Taemin-ah. Not after everything that’s happening right now.”
“Everything’s going to get better, hyung.” Taemin’s not even too sure himself, but he wishes-he prays. He reaches across to hold onto Jonghyun’s hand. “You know God’s always going to help us.”
“Maybe I’ll start believing when a miracle happens,” Jonghyun replies, forcing a small smile, controlling the urge to push Taemin’s hand away. “But I doubt that’ll happen soon.”
Taemin just sighs, stares as Jonghyun walks out of the room, leaving his cup of coffee steaming on the table. Taemin stares as Jonghyun leaves everything behind.

-- jongkey ; 155w.
“I love you, Jjong,” Kibum said, his eyes quickly darting to the floor. Jonghyun saw the tears forming in the corner of his eyes, threatening to fall. “Please say you love me back.”
“I love you, Key.” Jonghyun meant it. “But I’m with Sekyung. You know that. I can’t just break up with her.”
“Why not?” Kibum asked, frowning. “Sekyung is… Sekyung. She’ll understand, Jjong. I want you. I just want you. Please.”
“But I love her, too,” Jonghyun replied, looking down guiltily. “I actually love her. You know how long I’ve liked her, Key.”
“And I see she’s much more important to you than I am,” Kibum said, starting to turn away.
Jonghyun grabbed his wrist. “Key, come on,” he continued. “I’ll always love you.”
Kibum took a deep breath as a tear finally rolled down his cheek. He didn’t look back, just pulled his wrist back and started to walk away. “Save it.”
viii. tongue tied - faber drive
-- onho ; 187w.
It was pretty easy to stutter when you were in front of Minho. Not that he was any intimidating-he really wasn’t. He was just an extremely tall bundle of hidden childishness who never wanted to lose. It was pretty easy to fall for him, too. It wasn’t that Jinki didn’t try to stop, but the heart wants what the heart wants, right? And Jinki’s heart wanted him.
“M-Minho,” Jinki started. “It may sound weird but I, uhm, I know it’s not right but, uhm, I just though I-I’d tell you this j-just so y-you’d know. I mean, uhm, I know it’s weird and all b-but I mean…”
Jinki didn’t need to try to further explain himself when Minho shut him off with a brief brush of their lips. “I get it, hyung,” he said with that wide, bright grin that made Jinki’s heart flip in his chest. “I like you, too, okay?”
Jinki sighed, feeling relieved. But he was sure he’s never going to ever stop stuttering whenever Minho’s around, and Minho’s going to be around pretty often now. That was going to be a problem.
ix. invisible - taylor swift
-- taekey, jongkey ; 181w.
Kibum looks at Jonghyun with eyes full of love and adoration-more than what normal friends would. Jonghyun doesn’t see this, much to Kibum’s dismay. But Taemin does. In fact, Taemin sees everything happening between them.
Taemin sees the way Kibum’s eyes shine when Jonghyun talks to him about his day; the way Kibum’s smile gets brighter when Jonghyun gives him a simple hug; the way Kibum’s eyes become misty with tears whenever Jonghyun talks about his perfect girl.
And it pains Taemin so much to see it happening, because Kibum doesn’t deserve to get hurt this badly; because the way Kibum feels about Jonghyun is the way Taemin feels about him.
“Hyung,” Taemin starts as he sits beside Kibum on the couch. “Are you okay?”
Kibum forces on a small smile, for Taemin. “Yeah,” he replies. “I’m fine, Taemin-ah.”
Taemin nods, but he knows the truth. He knows Kibum is not okay. But he can’t do anything but keep quiet about it-about everything-because they’re both in the same heartbreaking situation, and they both can’t do anything about it.
x. your love - fay wolf
-- jongyu ; 196w.
Jonghyun looks at the screen of his phone; his screensaver is a picture of him and Jinki together. He takes Kibum’s vicious words of advice, “Go fucking find him. You’re so retarded. You’re going to fucking lose him this way.” Sharp as those words were, Kibum did have a point. So Jonghyun hopped into a bus during an ungodly hour of after midnight to look for Jinki.
He knows Jinki isn’t at home, so he lets the bus drop him off by the fountain square. It’s isolated, as expected at that hour, except for Jinki who is sitting alone on the side of the marble fountain. His fingers are tracing the surface of the cold surface of the water.
“Hyung,” Jonghyun starts as he walks toward Jinki. The other doesn’t look up. “Why are you running away from us?”
“I don’t want to lose you, Jonghyun.”
Jonghyun smiles and wraps his arms around Jinki’s shoulders from behind. Jinki’s fingers stop above the water. He stiffens for a bit before relaxing in Jonghyun’s arms. Jonghyun’s voice is soft, but Jinki hears it, and he feels the warmth in his heart despite the freezing night air. “You won’t.”
