Pairing: Yunjae
Summary: Yunho and Jaejoong had been best friends since forever. They are inseparable, and others envied their one of a kind friendship. Yunho thought they are perfect, until Jaejoong confessed that he is gay.
Jaejoong was packing his things when Yunho decided to man up and greet him.
"Hi Jaejoong-ah." Yunho begged that he sound cheerful as he imagined to be.
"Hi, Yunho-yah. Do you need to say something? Cause I'm in a hurry." Jaejoong steadfastly headed straight to the point. He knows he has to be the one making the initiative, because there's no chance Yunho will. Its always been like that. Jaejoong leading and Yunho just following what he does.
"Why? Where are you going?" Yunho asked in a defensive manner. Jaejoong is really making it hard for him, huh.
"Yunho, its none of your business. What I do doesn't concern you. We,as of yesterday, is nothing but mere acquaintances. Classmates. So if you mind, I'm going and what you need to tell me, I'm sure you could tell it next day or you could just text me. If you didn't delete my number that is. I cannot give you my number right now, you could ask Changmin. Well?" Jaejoong said in one breath. He was actually dreading the moment Yunho will corner him like this. He's awkward and he doesn't know what to do in situations like this.
"Jaejoong, why are you being like this? I want to invite you over to discuss things with you. To straighten any issues forming between us. But you are being difficult." Yunho is now, at the moment, angry. And paranoid.
"I am not being difficult. I am being honest. I have things to do, and I have no time for you."Jaejoong snapped. Yunho is not supposed to talk to him in the first place.
When did you lost time for me, Jaejoongie? Yunho wanted to ask but he held back. Instead, he decided to interrogate his bestfriend.
"Where are you going? Are you having a date with Siwon?"
"What? How did Siwon get involved with this?" Jaejoong, for the life of him, couldn't understand why Siwon was mentioned. The man is not in bad terms with Yunho as long as he remembers.
"You're going on a date with him right? Huh, just when I thought we'd be on the same boat. Alone and lonely, but here you are, you've managed to replace me that fast and whoa, you're dating. So damn fast." Yunho huffed. He doesn't know where his points are coming from but he feels somewhat territorial over his ex-bestfriend. Watching Jaejoong do the things he does with Yunho before now with Siwon, just hurts like hell.
"How dare you accused me of seducing Siwon. Don't ever degrade me like that, Jung Yunho." Jaejoong spat. He's had enough, and if Yunho won't stop-
"I've never said you seduced him, Jaejoong-ah. You said it, not me. But maybe its true after all, seeing as you are all smiles to him, not even sparing me a glance, acting like we didn't know each other, yea, its not about us anymore right? You-" what Yunho was supposed to say has been cut off when Jaejoong choose that time to slap him on his cheek.
"Enough! Enough Yunho-yah, enough!" Jaejoong was wildly shaking his head, as if there's someone shouting inside his head, and Yunho is bothered if he crossed the line.
Jaejoong took a deep shaky breath before he speak. "I've had it enough with you who doesn't even try to accept me in the first place. I've had it enough with you who degrades me and looks at me as if I'm a slut. I'm gay Yunho-yah, but don't ever call me as a whore. You, of all people, should know that." Jaejoong hiccupped. And to his suprise, two streaks of tears landed on his clothes. He didn't know he's been crying.
"Jaejoong-ah I-"
"If that's all, I'm leaving."Jaejoong said in a subdued tone. He quickly gather his things and left Yunho alone, hurt and defeated.
------------
Yunho honestly felt like dying. How would you react when your ex-best friend is laughing at Siwon- Siwon of all people, damn that Shim Changmin for saying Jae has a crush on him- and he's leaning too close much to Yunho's displeasure.
Yunho gritted his teeth. He doesn't know what to make of their conversation last night. It didn't turn out well and he knows Jaejoong is reall, seriously mad at him. The tears shed by Jaejoong yesterday really hurt Yunho. Its the first time that Jae has cried because of their fights, while many would say Jaejoong looks sensitive and emotional, he's the one who rarely shows his weakness to people, even his family and Yunho.
By those tears Yunho knew he went over the line. He shouldn't have accused Jae of cheating on him-
What?
Whose cheating on who?
Yunho's eyes became wide as he, slowly, repeated what he just said. Of course in his mind.
Jae's cheating..on me? What the fuck Yunho?
"Exactly, what the fuck Yunho-hyung? You're making weird movements. I suggest you sit down cause you're attracting stares and I'm not appreciating it." Changmin raised an eyebrow at Yunho's shocked expression.
"Changmin, wh-why are you here?"
"To save you from your humiliating stunts. Honestly, who does stand there looking at Jaejoong-hyung and Siwon like a kicked puppy, then doing weird hand movements then suddenly shouting, what the fuck Yunho? I'd say you're totally insane." Changmin rolled his eyes. His hyung has gone nuts ever since Jaejoong-hyung and Siwon started hanging out.
Figures, jealousy makes that.
Yunho sighed. He doesn't know what to do, without Jaejoog leading him, he's on eggshells.
"Hyung, why don't you make up with him. Man up, and apologize. Jae-hyung knows from the very beginning you won't like it when he said that to you but nevertheless he said it cause he cares for you, he doesn't want himself hiding things like that from you." Changmin explained. The two are unstable without each other, although Jae-hyung is mad at Yunho right now, he sometimes caught worried glances of Jae thrown at Yunho when the other is looking as though he's been taking exams on math for three straight weeks.
"Uggghh, Changmin-ah~~ yesterday I accused Jaejoongie of being a whore." Yunho pouted and slumped on his seat. Yeah, he's a total jerk.
"What hyung? Why did you say that?! Oh forget it. You're jealous of Siwon isn't it? But hyung you shouldn't have said that!" Changmin tsked. Idiot hyung.
"I knooow. That's why the guilt is eating me up. I didn't know what I was saying, next thing I knew Jaejoongie is crying. Its the first time, Min. It really pained me when I saw those tears. More because I'm the one who caused it. God, I'm such a jerk!" Yunho felt puching himself.
"Now,now hyung. Now's not the time for pity-party. You should plan on how to get Jaejoong back." Changmin smirked. Oh, he could feel Yunho kneeling for him, thanking him for his wonderful ideas. Hah, take that, besotted idiots.
"G-Get Jaejoong back? Why do you make it sound like we're on a break up?" Yunho is bewildered. He's not-
"You're in love with Jaejoong-hyung. Its high time you accept it or else Jae-hyung will never be in your arms again."
Yunho felt himself blushed. He does want Jaejoong in his arms again. He miss hugging his tiny waist. "Me..I-I'm in love with Jaejoong?! H-How-"
"Then why are you acting like your girlfriend is taken away from you? Hyung, stop being in denial. Being in love with a man doesn't mean you're a total gay. You're just inlove with Jaejoong-hyung, so you're just gay for him. And honestly, why are you so annoyed at gays?" Changmin huffed. His hyung's hostility towards gay is unforgivable especially if he's- uh..nevermind.
"I'm not afraid of them. I just, do I really have to tell you?" Yunho pouted. Its embarassing!
"I don't have all time, hyung."
"Ok, fine."Yunho surrendered. "I was, uh.. when Jaejoong turned 17, I was astonished as how he became beautiful in my eyes. And that scared me, being best friends and all. I..uh, of course when you have crush its not inevitable for me to not feel physically attracted-"
"Oh, you have wet dreams about him, hyung?" Changmin chuckled. Predictable.
"Don't put it as that! Gah, why do I even say this to you! Fine! I do and that's why, that's why I searched a gay porn and, and I saw how the bottom is being tore apart, there's blood Min but the guy was enjoying it! Its crazy I tell you. And so, I don't like to do that to Jae, but I don't like to sacrifice my butt either!" Yunho childishly shook his head.
"HYUNG. You are an idiot. That's the reason you're homophobic? Gah, I can't believe I have a friend like you. I knew there's something wrong with me no matter how genius I am." Changmin complained.
Yunho smacked Changmin's arm. Conceited brat.
--------------------------------------------
Jaejoong has always been a pretty sight for Yunho. No matter how messy his hair would look or how his face would become haggard because of eyebags. Every profile of Jaejoong's face, he memorizes, it what makes him feel accomplished.
When Jaejoong turned 17, Yunho doesn't know but he forgot to breathe. It was at that age when Jaejoong decided to go for blonde. And wow, the transformation nearly gave Yunho a heart attack.
But Yunho, in all his life has never been interested in guys. He never swings that way, but when Jaejoong appeared like that, blonde and initiating skinship all the time, Yunho knew by then he's feeling something not so brotherly towards his best friend. Yunho decided its not best to entertain it and just forget it when time permits.
When that fateful day of Jaejoong's confession about his orientation, he was stressed from head to toe. He didn't know if he should jump at this chance and make their status from best friends to lovers. But he had watched the video, and so he was scared. Terrified that he's been lusting over his friend, and he actually wants to do naughty things with him. He never intended to say he's a homophobic, that day was just a bad day for him and with Jaejoong adding his gayness to his problems, he snapped.
And how deeply he regrets it.
But this time, Yunho would make sure. Jaejoong will come back to him and never will he spare a glance at that Siwon guy. Yes, Yunho is a possessive bastard and he doesn't like sharing.
