three stories and it always ends.
First.
The first story is the same as the beginning of every other fairy tale out there; the first story is always about how two people meet, be it Cinderella or Aladdin, it’s always the same thing. This is their typical story.
It starts with a name exchange, then a little bit of jokes here and there and they stop there. Taemin doesn’t know how to proceed to the next step, but Jonghyun does. However, he’ll need a little push to help him get to the next step and so Kibum helps, Jinki stupidly follows to Kibum’s loud orders and Minho is just there to spoil everything because he’s always by Taemin.
It somehow works out, of course. Taemin and Jonghyun moves onto the next step, they take things slow. They continue from a little bit of jokes, to little laughters, to little dates and coffee time and finally little bits and pieces of skinship. Taemin is a little dense, but it is alright, Jonghyun thinks it’s cute. They move on from little bits and pieces of skinship to something bold. They try pressing their lips together, only because Taemin shyly brought up the topic.
We can try it if you’re so curious how it feels, Jonghyun suggests, Taemin nods and they somehow presses their lips together slowly. And their hands somehow find their own way to each other’s hair, entangling their locks of hair with their own fingers. Jonghyun makes the next move, he pushes Taemin closer to him, pushes his lips on him, to feel him more. Taemin does the same thing, only because he likes the feeling.
Taemin breaks the passionate kiss first, of course. Jonghyun feels a slight disappointment for breaking it, but it’s alright. Can we try that again, Taemin asks boldly. Jonghyun stares at him with a pair of widened eyes, but he says yes of course. They try it again, but it is Taemin’s turn to be slightly more bold. He bites Jonghyun’s lips.
Are we dating now, Taemin densely asks after their second little kiss. Jonghyun tries to be cool, if you want us to be. Taemin only snuggles into his arms, Jonghyun takes it as a good sign.
Just like their first kiss, it is Taemin who breaks things off first. We’re going to debut, we shouldn’t be doing this, Taemin says, guilt all over his face. Jonghyun only shoves his hands into his pocket, he accepts it coolly just like their second kiss, okay. Taemin turns on his heels, and runs off, fast enough for Jonghyun to be able to see the little trails of dust below his feet.
What Taemin doesn’t know is that Jonghyun wants to hold him back and says no but he can’t do that, of course. Kim Jonghyun is supposed to be cool, he hugs his knees after about 10 minutes Taemin leaves and finally when no one is looking, he cries his eyes out. Didn’t sleep well, is Jonghyun’s reply when Kibum asks. Taemin densely believes him.
What Jonghyun doesn’t know is that Taemin wants Jonghyun to hold him by the wrist and say no, but he didn’t, he didn’t even show any hint of remorse, Taemin’s fragile heart shatters like a thin glass. Taemin is the maknae of the group, he is allowed to cry because he is the maknae. He cries in Minho’s arms. Didn’t sleep well, is Taemin’s reply when Kibum asks. Jonghyun densely believes him.
( Their first story ends. )
Second.
It’s somewhat like their first story, but somehow not.
Kibum thinks they shouldn’t be like this, they’re a team. Jonghyun and Taemin are back on friendly terms, just friends. They’re both afraid to go beyond that, again. Minho says nothing, Jinki is merely oblivious and Kibum is perfectly happy with their current friendship.
They face the thousands of flashlights, the screaming fangirls and the red lights. Jonghyun pulls Taemin by the wrist, they’re behind the curtains for some reason that Taemin doesn’t really want to know. Jonghyun traces the outline of Taemin’s small face, you’re so thin“ Jonghyun whispers into the air. Taemin doesn’t say anything.
I miss you, Jonghyun finally says after a long moment of silence, Taemin buries his face into Jonghyun’s comforting shoulders, and cuffs his hands around Jonghyun’s waist. Let’s try again, Taemin suggests, Jonghyun nods and Taemin’s grip around his waist tightens.
Jonghyun has a freaking girlfriend, Taemin screams at Kibum’s face, it’s the first time he has ever done so. Kibum remains speechless, Minho pulls him by the wrist and envelops him in a comforting embrace. Taemin can only cry, Kibum slams the laptop close. It’s only a rumor, Jinki tries comforting the poor maknae. Kibum scoffs, and the person in question isn’t even here.
( Their second story ends with no words exchanged. )
Third.
They try again, maybe it could work out fine. Maybe.
Jonghyun stirs in his bed, they’re on a vacation and they’re all sleeping in a row on a comforting large-sized futon. He looks to his right and sees the outline of Taemin’s angelic sleeping face. He nearly pees in his pants when Taemin’s voice reaches his ears, can’t sleep?. Jonghyun doesn’t answer, he only stares at Taemin’s side profile. Taemin finally opens his eyes, and peeks at Jonghyun from under his eyelashes.
Let’s try again, Jonghyun says.
He knows that everyone in the room is awake, they only pretend to be asleep. He doesn’t care. Taemin takes a minute to think. Jonghyun gives him a light squeeze in his shoulders, please. Taemin finally turns and looks at Jonghyun straight on. We’ve tried twice, has it ever worked out?.
No.
