Sibling Rivalry 3------
Its been 1 week since their encounter in front of the apartment. Young Bae recalled as he rang the door bell. He hoped Jiyong would be the one to answer the door. He had only seen him once since then and it was very brief. Jiyong was on his way out probably to meet that guy Young Bae thought through gritted teeth.
He smiled when his girl friend opened the door for him.
“Hey baby, you’re a little early” Bokyung says after kissing Young Bae.
“Hmm nothing to do at home” Young Bae said looking around for any sign if Jiyong was home.
“just give me a minute to finish up” Bokyung announces and goes back to her room.
Young Bae stands in the living room thinking. He already had a plan on how to hang out with Jiyong and bokyung nagging Jiyong to was a lot of help. But somehow Jiyong managed to avoid him all week and he was getting frustrated. He even started staying longer in the apartment and coming early hoping to catch Jiyong but he never did.
He absentmindedly walked towards the rooms he passed Bokyungs room and was now standing infront for Jiyong’s room. He was debating on whether he should knock or just open the door.
“He left early” Bokyung says peeking out of her room.
“Ahh really” Young Bae said masking his disappointment and walked into Bokyung’s room
“I know you want to hang out with him and I do too. Just that he isn’t home that much these day, I rarely see him too” Bokyung explains.
Young Bae was getting worried with the situation. He had a feeling he wont like the crowd that Jiyong was hanging around with.
“that’s fine, he’s old enough to take care of himself” Young Bae reassures Bokyung.
“But I’d feel more comfortable if you hanged out sometime too you know just so know what kind of crowd he is hanging out with and maybe it wont be too awkward between the two of you” Bokyung suggest.
“I know, Don’t worry well be fine” Young Bae replied faking a smile right now he didn’t know how to start nothing was working.
“ohh he said he took additional classes in the morning I guess he really doesn’t want to stay home to much” Bokyung says laughing.
Young Bae laughs with her. “Or he just doesn’t want to be here. This is the only place where I can see him” Young Bae thought gloomily.
They went of for dinner but Jiyong still wasn’t home.
……
Jiyong stood infront of the apartment rummaging his pockets for his apartment key. He was already dripping wet from the rain.
“FUCK!” Jiyong curses when he realizes he doesn’t have his key. And no way in hell was he going to ring the door bell not after the text message he received from his sister. Young Bae was staying over since the rain was too strong and she was afraid to be alone because he wasn’t home yet.
Jiyong was out having fun and drinking with his friends and Teddy. He was having such a great time before the text massage and now this situation. He wipes off the drops of water off his face as he slumps on the steps of the apartment. He takes his phone out thinking if he should call Teddy but he remembered he was drunk awhile ago and he had to walk him home. He had the key to his apartment and was considering walking there but he just wanted to sleep now.
He didn’t want to walk anymore, He was tipsy, his phone was dead and he probably would need to buy a new one tomorrow since it was drenched in water. His clothes were soaked and he was feeling cold. He walked to the back of the apartment the kitchen window was the lowest one.
He hoped that it was his sister who closed all the windows and not Young Bae. His sister always had a trouble locking the kitchen window while Young Bae always double checked everything. He tipped one of his pots in the backyard and stepped on it. He smiled when he was able to push the window a little higher. He positioned himself to jump higher. He had gotten stronger over the past 3 years he was now actually able to carry his own weight.
Young Bae couldn’t sleep very well. He was a little uncomfortable sleeping beside Bokyung after the little make out session they had which he stopped. He couldn’t sleep hearing how strong the winds are slamming on the walls of the apartment the rain was strong too. He secretly hoped Jiyong was doing fine, that he was warm in some place. He knew Jiyong hated the rain,hell he was scared of thunders.
Young Bae sat up images of Jiyong cuddling closer to Teddy every minute of the storm made Young Bae’s stomach cringe.
**Flash back **
They were at Young Bae’s living room playing video games the storm was getting stronger by the minute. Jiyong’s mother had already told Jiyong to stay over since it was dangerous to go home.
Young Bae noticed that Jiyong would stiffen every time sounds of thunder could be heard.
Young Bae never knew that Jiyong was scared of thunder he subtly moved an inch closer to Jiyong every time there was thunder. He didn’t want to embarrass Jiyong.
Jiyong shrieked when there was a very loud booming sound of thunder that was followed by the noisy exploding of the transformer out in the corner of the street resulting in the lost of power.
Jiyong jumped on Young Bae trembling with fear. Burying his face on Young Bae’s hard broad chest.
Young Bae was about to tease to Jiyong but he felt Jiyong tremble. He wrapped his arms protectively around Jiyong leaning his chin on Jiyong’s head.
Young Bae leaned in to kiss Jiyong. At first Jiyong didn’t respond his lips were still trembling. Young continued nibbling on his lower lip . Slowly Jiyong responded, clinging closer to Young Bae.
Young Bae smiled as Jiyong relaxed into his embraced lost in their kisses he didn’t even register the stronger sounds of thunder.
Young Bae loved the feeling that he was able to make Jiyong feel safe.
*end*
Young Bae stood up unable to explain the uneasiness he felt when he realized that Jiyong could be in the arms of another man. He cursed under his breath leaving the room not wanting to wake Bokyung up. Why did Jiyong have to go out and party at a weather like this? And why the hell is he not home yet its freaking 4 in the morning!!? He should be the one keeping him safe and sound but he nowhere near him.
He drags himself towards the kitchen to get a cup of milk. He stops in his tracks when he hears shuffling sounds from the kitchen. He thinks its some burglar trying to get in from the kitchen. He stealthily moves into the kitchen grabs the iron pan from then stove and gets ready to hit the shadow of the man getting up from floor after slipping in using the window.
Young Bae swings the pan ready to hit the man just in time as he faces him.
“what the fuck!” Jiyong exclaims as he sees Young Bae with a pan in his hand ready to hit him.
Young Bae places the pan on the table as soon as he recognizes Jiyong’s voice.
“I’m sorry thought you were a burglar or something”Young Bae tries to explain.
Jiyong just snorts at him opens the refrigerator takes the cartoon of milk and places it on the table. He strips his shirt off and walks out the room.
“why didn’t you just knock instead of going through all the trouble of climbing the window?” Young Bae asks following Jiyong.
“Didn’t want to wake up Bokyung” Jiyong shrugs walking away.
Young Bae stares at Jiyong taking in the other mans appearance in. He could numerous tattoos on Jiyong’s back. Young Bae wanted to reach out and touch them. When had Jiyong gotten them? Why? Did it hurt? There were so many questions running through his mind all at once.
“Where have you been?” Young Bae manages to croak out. It wasn’t the question he wanted to ask but it came out as a reflex.
Jiyong stopped in his tracks anger in him rising. The nerve of this guy to ask him those questions.
“None of your business” Jiyong spats back and opens the bathroom door he was so ready for a hot bath now.
“Ji.” Young Bae calls out on more time.
Jiyong turns around wearing his most annoyed face and prepares to be mean hoping Young Bae would leave him alone.
“GOD Young Bae, can’t you see I’m soaking wet, would like to get a hot shower now before Pneumonia kills me tomorrow. What the hell do you want?” Jiyong spats at Young Bae at his meanest tone and attitude that he could come up with at the moment.
Young Bae was shocked with Jiyong’s tone , he never uses that kind of tone. But he can see that a lot has changed. Young Bae how ever did not falter he promised to make it up to Jiyong and himself.
“I just have a question” Young Bae meekly whispers.
Jiyong growls. He wanted the night to end. He didn’t expect a confrontation with Young Bae not now not ever.
“Don’t expect me to answer properly, spit it out” Jiyong answers annoyance obvious in his face.
“What happened to you?” Young Bae voiced out. He silently cursed himself damn that question didn’t come out quite how he expected it to be.
Young Bae stared at Jiyong memorizing the changes in his features while he waited for his answer. But no answer ever came only the slight tightening of Jiyong’s lips gave any indication he’d heard him.
Jiyong turns around ready to slam the door on Young Bae’s face.
“I mean what did you do to your perfect creamy back?” Young Bae suddenly spat out. For the second time that night he cursed himself for not even being able to form proper questions.
“It’s called tattoos look it up” Jiyong answers slamming the door on Young Bae’s face.
“I mean why?” Young Bae asked again but no reply ever came.
Meanwhile Jiyong slumped on the bathroom floor. Not minding the cold feeling of the wall against his bare back. He needed to feel anything but pain right now. He was thankful he had already turned his back on Young Bae when he asked the question again. Only he could make Jiyong’s heart beat so fast as if it was leaving his chest and make him blush when he was already feeling dead cold.
Once again he felt helpless and pathetic. How dare he waltz right back in my life after all the shit I went through just to forget him. He moves to turn on the hot shower. His body welcomed the feeling of the warm water, Sensations slowly coming back to his numbed extremities. He again failed that night as streams of tears flowed along with his water on his face. He stayed seated on the floor letting the warm water help him think.
He stared blankly at the water flowing down the drain. His body , mind and heart was tired. He was tired of everything. He just wanted it all to go away. To wash away just like how the water disappeared down the drain. But that wasn’t how real life worked he learned that the hard way when Young Bae left him. He closed his eyes and buried everything in his subconscious to forget even just for a while.
He looked at mirror composed himself, feeding himself lies to get him through the nights like he had done for the past moths since Young Bae had come back.
He dries himself and wraps a towel on his waist he was drying his hair when he opened the door. He was surprised to see Young Bae leaning on the wall opposite the door.
He raised his brows in annoyance. “you’re still here” He murmurs as he walks pat Young Bae.
Young Bae ignores the statement and follows Jiyong until his room.
Jiyong was about to close his door when Young Bae blocks it with his hand leaving a little gap between.
Jiyong summons all the strength he has left to deal with Young Bae.
“What now?” He growls at Young Bae letting go of the door.
“ I have tickets to Kattun’s concerton Saturday and I want you to come” Young Bae enthusiastically tell him.
Jiyong was momentarily caught by surprise. He wasn’t prepared for this. To be honest he wasn’t prepared for anything involving Young Bae.
“No.” Jiyong coldly answers.
Jiyong answered just in time when a loud thunder hit. Young Bae expected Jiyong to stiffen or atleast show any reaction. But he saw Jiyong look up and smile.
Jiyong slams the door close when he saw Young Bae was no longer blocking it.
Young Bae wanted to knock again and ask him to reconsider his answer . But seeing Jiyong smile was enough for him now even if the smile wasn’t intended for him. He frowned when he realized that he might never get to see a smile from Jiyong that was meant for him like before. It was going to be harder than he actually imagines it to be.
He walked back to the kitchen for his milk. He noticed that the window was still open. When went to close it and made sure to lock it properly. He placed the pan back on top of the stove and grabbed a glass. He looked at the box of milk on the table. He remembered he never even reached the refrigerator awhile ago. He recalled Jiyong opening it but never actually drinking the milk.
He smiled as he poured the milk on his glass. Could it be the Jiyong still remembered he always had trips to kitchen for a glass of milk?. Maybe there was still a chance after all he just needed to try harder he reminded himself.
…
The next morning Young Bae got up early to prepares breakfast for them. He made sure to make an extra with soup the which he knew was good for hangovers or even cold.
Bokyung slips in the kitchen and kisses Young Bae good morning.
“morning baby! wow so many food thank you!” Bokyung exclaims so happy at how thoughtful her boyfriend could be.
“Morning too!” Young Bae replies pulling a chair for Bokyung.
They both eat breakfast. Young Bae decides to bring up a topic.
“so remember the party my classmates where planning this weekend right?” Young Bae starts.
“I remember baby, I’m sorry but you know I have a business trip then” Bokyung says sadly, she really wanted to meet Young Bae’s other school friends.
“It’s okay It can’t be helped. So I was thinking of bringing Jiyong along. Just so we can hang out too.” Young Bae tells Bokyung hopefully she’ll agree.
“Awww that’s a great idea Bae, it would be nice for you guys to hang out too and you wont have to be alone. “ Bokyung exclaims she liked this idea better than Young Bae attending the party alone.
“I haven’t told him about it yet, I talked to him about the kattun concert that we could watch before attending the party but he said no.” Young Bae said a little disappointed.
“Jiyong turned down a kattun concert? It’s like his favorite band?” Bokyung asks again surprised she knew Jiyong really really liked kattun.
“He said no last night” Young Bae said continuing on eating his breakfast thinking of a way to make Jiyong agree to going with him.
“Don’t worry about it I’ll help you with It” Bokyung smiles ecstatic.
Young Bae smiles back and finishes his breakfast hoping Bokyung might be able to persuade Jiyong. He wasn’t really a big fan of kattun he liked their music but eh would say he was a fan. He only got them fro Jiyong. The VIP seats would be a waste if Jiyong didn’t agree.
Young Bae kisses Bokyung goodbye, telling her he needs to go home to change then go to class.
“I gotta go home, need to change then go to class” Young Bae says
“okay take care love you” Bokyung says just in time as the hear the bathroom door close,
Young Bae looks at the direction of the bathroom.
“why bae?” Bokyung asks Young Bae.
“He came home very late, It’s just surprise he’s actually up early” Young Bae says chuckling remembering what a sleepy head Jiyong was back in high school.
“He’s changed, he goes to school everytime even though he has a terrible hangover” Bokyung informs him.
“Ohh” was the only thing Young Bae could come up with. He had a lot of things to know about the new Jiyong.
“go baby or else you are gonna be late” Bokyung teases and playfully pushes Young Bae out the door.
Jiyong walks into the kitchen wearing his headphones. Just incase Young Bae and Bokyung were still there sweetly chatting. He didn’t want to hear it.
He was about to open a new box of cereals when he saw soup on the stove. He shoved the cereal back in the cabinet. He scooped himself a bowl full of the soup and started digging in. Soup was what he needed now to keep him going through the day. He rarely ate anything heavy anyway.
He was already on his second bowl when Bokyung walked into the kitchen dressed for school. He remembered she couldn’t cook a soup like this which only meant that Young Bae must have cooked it.
Suddenly a bad taste was left in his tongue he stood up and along with his plate. He was washing the dishes when Bokyung suddenly spoke up.
“remember I asked you about hanging out with Young Bae one of this days?” she says.
“Yeah what about it?” Jiyong replies trying to sound casual.
“Well I’ll be gone this weekend and I want you to hang out with him then” Bokyung says happily looking at Jiyong with puppy eyes.
“I have plans.” He said dismissively.
“But Ji you said that the last time” Bokyung argues back.
“If you were home more often You’d realize that had been the case for the past 3 years” Jiyong spat back bitterly wiping his hands on the towel.
Bokyung was slightly hurt with that response but she tried to be positive this was for Young Bae.
“Come on Ji, its only Tuesday I’m sure you can still change the plans its not to late to cancel at this time” She pleads again.
“I am not canceling on my plans for Young Bae, he is your boyfriend not mine” Jiyong answeres back heatedly he hated knowing that fact.
“please Ji, just this weekend please please” Bokyung continued to lead she knew that jiyogn would get annoyed with her and end up agreeing.
“please ask someone else.” Jiyong replies his sister was really getting on his nerve. Doesn’t she have any idea how hard it is for him.
“I can’t Jiyong, please be nice to your sister and do her this favor” Bokyung says again hugging Jiyong and whining like a little girl.
Jiyong couldn’t stand it anymore his sister had gone crazy for wanting him to spend time with Young Bae and he was running late.
“Fine just shut up already, and only this weekend” Jiyong replied the kattun concert might just eb enough for him to forget it was Young Bae he was with.
“yehey! You’re the best baby brother ever! Thank you thank you!” Bokyung exclaims kissing Jiyong on the cheeks and going off to work.
Jiyong blankly stares at his sisters disappearing figure. There definitely was wrong with his sister. He was sure her wanting him to spend time with Young Bae was not it. she knew how close they were before, she wouldn’t risk losing Young Bae’s attention if they ever got close again. So what could be worst than that?.
Something was up he could feel it. He needed to keep his guard up. He couldn’t trust anyone but himself. They would all leave him in the end.
Jiyong left the house full of questions. Last night was weird; his sister was weird today too. He ended up agreeing into hanging out with Young Bae this week end.Is the world coming to an end or something? He asked himself.
He called his friends and Teddy and explained the situation to them and he ended up cancelling the weekend plans. His voice almost broke as the realization that he would be away from the protection of his friends and be vulnerable to Young Bae for almost a whole day took hold.
