Summary: Third time’s the charm? Maybe, maybe not. Jonghyun has something important to ask Key but there is a certain someone always interrupting.
Hands brushing, they walked in perfect silence under the brightly lit moon.
They had just been to a musical of Kibums choice and had decided to take a stroll in the park nearby when Jonghyun felt that it was the perfect time and place for the occasion. It had been on his mind for quite a while and now seemed like the perfect opportunity.
The park was quiet and peaceful at this time of the night, stars were out and the silence seemed more comfortable than awkward.
Jonghyun looked at the boy next to him and his heart began to beat at an accelerated pace. He sighed and wondered at how bad he had fallen that even a simple 3-second eye contact made him look silly.
Kibum took a deep breath and stared at the park in awe. Sure, he liked a party here and there but the quiet silence was more welcoming, especially when you had the right company.
They sauntered around the park, eating their ice-creams, taking in the scenery around them.
“Do you want to sit down for a bit?” Jonghyun asked and turned a deep shade of red as the younger boy nodded, licking the ice -cream off his lips.
It took Jonghyun all in his will-power not to abuse those perfectly plump pink lips.
They sat on a bench, quietness enveloping them like a warm blanket on a snowy evening. Jonghyun fidgeted in his seat, looking like a disgruntled puppy.
Kibum turned to him, confused. He knew the shorter boy had been edgy for quite a while but had shrugged it off as a consequence of the accident he’d been in. He knew the boy was in the dumps for not being able to perform. He may have put on this facade of being strong and trolling on every second person but Kibum knew that Jonghyun had been beating himself up over not being able to promote. Now that he was back, healthy, he seemed to have been more nervous than usual and it was only around Kibum this happened.
Taking a deep breath and turning towards the object of his affection, Jonghyun held the younger boys hands. Kibum looked surprised but didn’t pull away. He was used to the older boy and his skinship.
“Key, I’ve been thinking and-”
“KIM KIBUM!” A voice struck through the quiet area and whatever Jonghyun said next was lost in the sudden outburst.
Kibum, who had been intently listening, jumped at the voice. He peered into the dimly lit area and a smile as wide as the Han River appeared on his face.
“MARK?” Key ran into the darkness and hugged someone. Jonghyun, still with his hands held out gaped at the empty space before him.
The once quiet park was now filled with the screams and squeals of Kibum and the other boy. To Jonghyun, it looked like two fangirls who had just seen their favourite star walk by, smile and blow kisses at them.
He cleared his throat. No result.
He cleared his throat again. But it was like he’d put on the cloak of invisibility.
Exasperated, he coughed. Really loudly.
It was only then that Kibum turned around, still beaming.
“Hyung this is my best friend from the US and we studied together and his name is Mark and I haven’t seen him in since like god knows when and did I mention he was my best friend?” Kibum ranted.
Jonghyun had heard Key mention Mark once or twice. This was the first time he met him. Mark, Jonghyun noticed, was tall and really handsome. His fashion sense was not as stand out as Key’s but there was something there that oozed fashionista. He looked like someone Key would be really close to, tall, handsome and well-dressed more importantly.
Jonghyun noticed Mark held on to Kibum by his waist and didn’t look like he was planning on letting go. It irritated him a little but decided to shrug it off as his over protectiveness.
“Key has told me all about you. It’s so nice to finally meet you. Big Fan”
Mark held out his hand and Jonghyun shook them in an awkward manner.
“Where have you been? You said you’ll call but never did! And then I tried calling you and it came switched off? Are you trying to ignore me Mark? Because if you are. And what you doing in Seoul?! You better have a reason to be here and not contact me. And-”
Mark hugged Key tightly to shut him up.
Jonghyun wanted to punch something. Jonghyun didn’t miss the smile on Key’s face when Mark hugged him. He didn't like it.
You’re just over-reacting. They’re friends. Just friends; friends who haven’t met in a long time. You hold hands and hug your friends too. It’s not a big deal. Calm down, Kim Jonghyun.
He came out of his trance when Kibum waved his hands.
“Hyung, do you want to come with us? We’re planning to go get some ramyun and catch up”
He felt out of place standing there watching the two friends reconnect. He wanted to go but knew that if he went he’d only feel more left out and irritated.
Forcing a smile, he declined the offer and told them to enjoy themselves.
Key looked at him worried. He knew there was something Jonghyun wanted to tell him and it was eating him out.
“Sure hyung? Okay. Tell me what you wanted to say tomorrow. Go home safe. Don’t wander around. Text me once you reach”
“Kibum, stop nagging and go. Have fun and come back to the dorm soon”
Jonghyun watched as Mark pulled Key away. A part of him wanted to follow and see what they were upto but he knew that was pushing the limit.
Sighing, he walked back to their dorm hoping he’d get another chance the next day to speak to Key without further interruptions.
Little did he know that this was just the beginning.
