He broke me

If Minho had never met Jisung, he wouldn't have gotten angry.

Two days later, Chan was at a gym, training for the upcoming tournament when a figure who was entering the room caught his eyes.

He was wearing a black mask, but Chan recognized the other features.

-New here? he asked, making the other turn around.

-Yeah. I have been looking for a while for a gym.

-Really? You look buffed tho.

-I trained at home.

-That hard? Chan raised his eyebrow.

-Yes, the younger replied.

Chan could hear his phone ringing in his bag.

-You're not gonna take that?

-Nope.

-Girlfriend?

-Worst. Manager.

-So I was right, Chan smiled. You are the handsome guy with the sick flow.

-What?

-Yeah... Chang...Cheng... or whatever.

-Changbin.

-That! The Rapper.

-Did you just say I'm handsome? Changbin furrowed his eyebrows.

-Not me. My friend. He is fanboying over you, mate. Like for real.

-Really? Is he cute?

-Take a look, Chan showed to Changbin a photo of Felix.

-Damn, that's the cutest guy I've ever seen.

-Right? I can call him here if you want.

-And you're cool with that?

-As long as you're for real and not a player, yes. I'm Bang Chan, by the way.

-Seo Changbin, the younger shook his hand.

Seungmin entered the closest bar he could find and sat down at the counter, next to a guy who was talking loudly on the phone, causing him a migraine.

He asked for two shots and took the liquid down his throat to feel the sting.

-Changbin! Motherfucker, pick up the phone! Damn it! the guy hung up the phone and slammed it on the counter.

-Was that your brother, boyfriend or child? Seungmin asked after receiving some courage thanks to the alcohol.

-Client. He is a pain in the ass.

-Here, Seungmin slid a third shot to the younger boy.

-Thanks! he drank it squirming. What are you drinking for?

-I'm a teacher. Sometimes the kids are too much. My head is gonna explode.

-My head was exploding when I was a student. Can't imagine how it is to be a teacher, he joked. Yang Jeongin, he reached his hand.

-Kim Seungmin, he shook Jeongin's hand.

-Well, Seungmin...Looks like you're my new partner in this great adventure of getting wasted.

-I guess I am. What's the worst that could happen? Seungmin smiled.

-We could rob a bank, travel to another state or sleep together.

-I mean... that doesn't sound too bad, Seungmin laughed. But I don't sleep with someone without a proper date. I've got standards.

-Alright... Then here's my number, Kim Seungmin. Let me know when you are free, Jeongin winked.

-Welcome to the Lee shelter! What can I-

Jisung stopped mid-sentence when he recognized the freckled boy from two days ago.

-Is Minho hyung here?

-He left to buy some food, Jisung said, not even glancing at the younger.

-We haven't met properly. I am Lee Felix Yongbok! Minho's younger brother.

-I figured out, Jisung replied.

-What about you?

-About me...

-Your name.

-Han Jisung.

-It's great to meet you! Felix said with excitement.

-You're too loud.

-What? he asked fazed.

-You're too loud. You make my head hurt. All this useless excitement is a waste of energy. Honestly, you're exhausting. People will get tired one day and you will forever wonder why did they leave.

-But I'm cheering people up, Felix said, his smile dropping into a concerned look.

-Right. Helping them forget death is right after the corner. If that makes you feel useful in life, go ahead!

-Lix, what are you doing here?

The latter blinked twice to wipe the tears away and rushed to the exit bumping into his brother's shoulder.

-Lix?

-See you at home, hyung!

Minho came to Jisung confused.

-What did you say to him?

-I just said hi.

-Knowing you, that was probably enough, Minho sighed.

Jisung stopped from work and stared at Minho in disbelief.

-Did you just say something mean?

-What?

-You said that knowing me, saying hi is enough to upset people, a mad smile crept on Jisung's face. You insulted me. You're not an angel as everyone says. Oh, and you fooled me so good, he started clapping. You are just like everyone else. Trying to feel better about yourself by helping the isolated kid. Maybe your self-esteem will grow and people will start ovation for your ego when they see you with me. It's not my fault you can't handle the truth. I finally got on your nerves, boss.

Jisung stepped closer to Minho, mocking him with his gaze and smirk.

-I'm not like that, Minho said.

-You are exactly like that.

-You should go home, Jisung...

-Sure. See you tomorrow, boss!

Chan saw Jisung going home with a sly smile and Minho leaning on the counter.

-What was that?

-I think he broke me.

-Eh?

-He broke Felix too.

-Do you want me to punch him again?

-No. I will handle him tomorrow. We have to cheer Felix up.

-I might have the solution, Chan winked at him.

Minho unlocked the door and went to Felix's room.

It was all dark. The curtains were blocking any ray of light and Felix was under a blanket with his earphones on.

Minho wanted to go and comfort his brother, but Chan stopped him.

-Leave it to me this time. I've got a surprise for him.

-Alright. I'm in the kitchen if you need me.

Chan sat down on the bed and patted Felix's head, but the younger didn't even flinch.

Chan got impatient and stole the blanket from the younger.

-Leave me alone!

-Not today, emo boy! Put the earphones down. Enough Imagine Dragons for today.

-Hyung, Felix whined.

-Don't "hyung" me. Changbin would be disappointed in you if he saw this.

-Changbin has an amazing life. He is accomplished. What do I have? I am just a fucking teacher who took the post from his older brother and still lives with him. I have no purpose in life, he flopped on the back.

-Then I'm guessing you don't wanna hear about how I met Changbin today, Chan turned around and immediately felt Felix jumping on his back.

-You what? You met Changbin? The God of Rap. The most handsome man who exists. The king of black. The aegyo ambassador.

-So many nicknames. No wonder I couldn't remember his name.

-How did he look? What did you talk about?

Felix's excitement was back for sure now, which made Chan smirk.

-He was complaining about his manager.

-Yang Jeongin, 22 years old. Born in Busan, one of the youngest managers in the industry. Picked personally by Changbin himself. Two brothers. One younger and one older.

-I'm not gonna ask how do you know all of this, Chan mumbled.

-He accidentally dropped the camera in one live and showed his face.

-Anyway... I showed him a photo of you and he said you are cute.

-Shut up! Felix slapped Chan. Really?

-Yep. He said he would like to meet you.

-Oh my Aussie! When?

-You can come with me tomorrow to the gym and wait for him.

-Tomorrow? What do I wear? Something classy? No, we are gonna be at the gym. Maybe something baggy. Can I borrow your clothes?

-Sure, do as you-

Chan was cut off by Felix again, who was now completely inside the closet.

-No, if I wear your clothes, he will think I am dating you.

Even tho one brother was on cloud nine, the other was stressing over what Jisung had told him.

Minho couldn't sleep, hearing Jisung's mocking voice over and over.

He finally decided that he couldn't wait for tomorrow, so he called the latter.

"Do you know what time is it?" Jisung answered with a raspy voice.

-Hello to you too! I just wanna say that I am not what you think I am. I don't want you to have a misleading opinion of me.

"It's fucking 3 in the morning."

-We are all human and we can snap. I understand that my reaction offended you, but I am not using you for gaining popularity or self-esteem.

"Shut up!"

That was all that Minho heard before Jisung hung up.

I blame myself, I blame youI don't know whom to blame, my resent grows(Sorry, I love you by Stray Kids)
