Summary : When Key (a blonde, British, sweet but snarky fifteen year old) and Jonghyun (a blonde, Korean slash American overly excited twenty-one year old) have both the bitch level of +1000, nothing ends up right.
Jonghyun's eyes grew in size when he felt a hand on his chest, pushing him backwards and pressing him into a door. The handle of the door poked his backside and he let out an uncomfortable groan.
His brain couldn't catch up with was happening until he felt two soft hands on his neck and something that smelled like mint bubblegum invading his nostrils and tickling his senses.
The next thing he knew he felt two soft lips on his and the corners of his mouth curled upwards when the familiar feeling rippled through his entire body, arms going around a thin body and pulling it closer.
His eyes fluttered closed, inhaling deeply and shifting so that he could lean properly against the door, the other's body pressed flush against his.
Slender fingers made their way from his neck to his jawline, caressing the prominent bone with soft fingertips.
Jonghyun gripped the other's waist tighter, angling his head slightly so that he could slip his tongue into the other's mouth, licking at the roof and letting out a soft moan when the other's blunt nails scraped over his cheekbone.
They were both breathing heavily, the sound of sloppy kissing filling the hollow corridor until Jonghyun stirred at hearing light footsteps going up the stairs.
His hands left the slightly smaller body, wanting to pull back but the other prevented him from doing so, soft hands leaving his face and going down to grab his wrists, putting them back around his waist.
Jonghyun frowned, opening his eyes, only to be met with two, big green eyes looking straight back at him, feeling how the boy's hand sneaked to the handle of the door and opened it, both of them stumbling inside with their lips still connected.
Breathy giggles left their lips as the blonde locked the door behind them with a soft 'click'.

Did Jonghyun forget about Key ? Yeah, he did.
How is that possible you think ? Simple, Key didn't attend the boot camps anymore.
Jonghyun was anxious the next year when he found himself going through his all to familiar routine where he was packing his stuff and making himself ready for two weeks of snowboarding and skiing.
He really, really was anxious because over the year he did forget about the blonde boy, he even got himself a girlfriend at one point (their relationship didn't last long though), but once he stepped inside the bus that would bring him and a couple of other monitors who lived neaby to the hostel, his mind went into overdrive.
He was curious and scared, curious to if the younger boy had changed and scared of just seeing him back. He didn't know how he was going to react, neither did he know how he was going to behave in front of him.
Did he have to act as if he didn't remember him ? As if he didn't remember the kiss ? Because he did, he remembered every second of it.
Jeremy was excited when they met up at the bus stop. They decided to sit next to each other, the boards and all their other equipment was carefully placed in the trunk by the bus driver and they were both sitting in their seats, waiting for everybody to get on the vehicle and for the bus driver to start the engine.
It was a long ride, a very long ride and Jonghyun had been sleeping most of the time. Jeremy was busy on his laptop, because he had his exams coming up and thought that it would be smart if he'd study beforehand.
The other passengers of the bus were either talking with each other or sleeping, one of them managing to snore so loud that someone at the front began complaining.
They stopped several times to stretch their legs and go to the bathroom. Jonghyun kept checking his cellphone for any missed calls or text messages of his parents, just for the sake of taking his mind off Key and if he was going to be attending the boot camp or not.
It was frustrating that he couldn't talk about this to anybody, just because it would be really awkward and strange (I mean, a six year old younger boy that has been on your mind for the past hours ? Weird, if you ask me.) because now he had to bottle up all of his feelings. His nervousness was seriously killing him, he wouldn't admit that he was sweating but he was and his heart was thumping in places where he didn't know it could reach.
It took another couple of hours before they arrived at the hostel, of course they were the very first ones to arrives except for a couple of other monitors who lived closer to the site.
He couldn't get more quickly out of the bus, leaving his luggage in the bus and ignoring the bus driver's complaints as he speed walked inside.
Even if people were used to him and his redundant excitement for the most smallest and meaningless things, he couldn't help but hide his enthousiasm now. He was embarrassed that he was so excited on checking if Key was going to be there this year.
He first went into the auditorium to greet all of his co-workers, noticing that there were a few newbees and telling them that he would give them a tour around the site later that day. He smiled brightly at Tess and gave her a long hug, "Ah, I missed you, uglyface," He joked.
She playfully pushed him away and rolled her eyes with a smile, "Missed you too, jerk,"
He chuckled, turning his attention back to the others and giving them hugs or shaking their hands.
His main goal was to go through of this year's participants to see if there would be any familiar names among them (or maybe just to see if Key was one of them) and so he subtly slipped out of the auditiorium as all the others were busy catching up on each other and sneaked his way into the room where they usually held the files of all the kids.
He crossed his fingers when he opened the drawer, not sure if the person who was responsible for the files had already put them down somewhere safely, and heaving a relieved sigh when he noticed the bunch of papers ordened by name.
He bit his lip when he sat down on one of the chairs, fingers going through all the files and reading the names, laughing a little when he came across particular ones that carried memories with them.
He stopped for a second when he began nearing the letter K, not sure if he wanted to continue and face reality. He really didn't know if he wanted to see Key's name in between the dozen others.
After contemplating for a couple of more seconds, he decided that it was ridiculous how much of a weirdo he was being, flipping through the papers and biting his lip when there was no file that read Kim Key.

The next year, Kibum wasn't there either. Jonghyun had almost completely forgotten about him, over those two years he had realised that he liked girls as much as he liked boys. And he felt slightly more relieved to have discovered that, because now he felt a little less confused when he thought back at the time where Key was doing funny things to his mind.
He dated several girls and only one guy, dealing with parents who weren't fully behind him and his sexual preferences but not caring less because he was twenty-three, his parents didn't have a say on his lifestyle anymore.
The boot camp were still two weeks he always looked forward to, meeting new people and enjoying the presence of children was something he really liked and couldn't get enough of. On top of that, he could snowboard and ski as much as he wanted. It really was paradise.
It was when he discovered that he was attracted to boys as well as to girls that he began forgetting about Kibum, because he had accepted it and he wasn't confused anymore. The boy had almost completely left his mind, only during the boot camp he would sometimes think back at him.
It was Jonghyun's second camp without Kibum and he was almost sure the boy was never coming back again.
Maybe he returned back to England ?
Then what about Kenneth and David ? They have been missing out on two boot camps as well.
He would be lying if he'd say he didn't miss the times where he would deal where snarky remarks would be thrown at his head, even when they humiliated him in front of everybody. Or the times where he had to barge into a particular room only to get attacked by a pillow.
Whenever he called one of the girls at the camp 'princess', a little alarm bell went off in his head. But it stopped as fast as it had come.
He didn't dare to ask any of his co-workers if they knew Key's whereabouts, therefore he decided to just drop it. Key was past time.

The third boot camp.
Jonghyun was twenty-four and still as superfluously enthusiastic as ever.
It was the first day of the boot camp and they were all gathered in the auditorium, Jonghyun was as always called as the spokesman, eyes scanning the room for any familiar or not familiar faces.
His signature grin was plastered onto his face as he looked at one of the girls he remembered from the previous year, telling her to stand up and introduce herself to the others.
She stood up with a proud smile, facing the crowd and introducing herself as Katie who owned a little puppy at home and had a passion for dancing.
At the back of the room Tess looked at her watch, turning around to look through the big window behind her and pushing herself off the wall when she noticed a pair of headlights approaching.
She looked at Jonghyun who was listening to a little nine year old boy's introduction, pointing behind her and when Jonghyun gave her a knowing nod, jumping over the outstretched legs and dispersed bags and running outside with Jeremy following suit.
"Uhm, hi --" A girl with long brown hair said shyly, fiddling with her bracelets, "I'm Olivia and I'm fourteen,"
Jonghyun smiled as she introduced herself to the others, sending the monitor a pleading look as if saying she didn't know what to say.
"Hobbies ?" He chuckled, flipping his bangs (that were now back to brown) out of his eyes and crossing his arms over his chest.
"Oh uh --" She paused, looking down at her hands in thought, "I like skiing," She admitted and some of the kids made a 'duh'- face at which Jonghyun raised his eyebrows at.
He flashed the girl a reassuring smile when he saw her cheeks turning red, telling her to sit back down and moving on to the next kid.
Just then noises came from outside and footsteps of a dozen people echoed through the building. Jonghyun paused and listened carefully as he heard Tess' hushed voice from outside the auditorium, telling the kids who just arrived to put down their bags and go inside silently.
He chuckled as she failed at being silent herself, even whispers could be heard in these echoing hallways.
The door opened, revealing the kids that came with the bus who had been two hours late. Jonghyun gave them a bright smile, "Ah there you are !"
He greeted them, telling them to sit down wherever. There were a bunch of new kids he hadn't seen before, it even surprised him how only a few of them were ones he could actually remember.
He looked at Jeremy who closed the door behind him when everybody was inside. The male grinned at him, jerking his head to a particular direction but Jonghyun didn't get it, dumbly looking at wherever Jeremy wanted him to look at.
He shook his head a little, quickly putting back a smile on his face and pointing at a teenage boy with short black hair.
He saw out of the corner of his eyes how Jeremy rolled his eyes, making his way over to where all the other monitors were standing and sitting down next to one of the kids, indian style.
"Hello !" The boy he had indicated to introduce himself said in a cheerful voice, "My name's Tristan, I'm fifteen and I love sports in general,"
Jonghyun scanned the room again as Tristan introduced himself, inspecting all the new faces. He ignored Jeremy's blatantly staring at him, he knew he wanted for him to look his way but he knew that if he did, he'd end up either bursting out in laughter or confused.
He knew how much of an idiot his friend was and he wasn't planning on taking any risks.
When Tristan was done with his lenghty introduction Jonghyun decided it was time to introduce himself, clasping his hands together and flashing the kids a smile that he swore could blind them. Smiling was always the first step on leaving a good impression.
"Okay well, now that we know each other, I'm quickly going to tell you who we are," He said whilst pointing at the other monitors at the back of the auditorium.
"
Neon meongcheong iya !" Someone shouted in broken Korean, the voice coming from somewhere at the back of the room. Jonghyun looked up, confused, and so did everybody else.
A loud squeal that didn't belong to the person who had just shouted went through the room and Jonghyun furrowed his brows, watching how a blonde boy was clutching another boy's arm as he tried to contain his laughter, holding his hand in front of his face.
The boy who had shouted looked at his friend in confusion, hand shooting up to try and pry the other's slender fingers off his arm as they were clearly hurting him.
Jonghyun's eyes went slightly bigger at recognising the boy as Kenneth, something tugging at his chest when he remembered him from three years ago.
A little smile appeared on Jonghyun's lips at seeing how big the boy had grown over the past years, "Kenneth," He chuckled and the boy tore his eyes off his friend who was now slapping his thigh, still trying to not burst out into a fit of laughter.
Some of the other kids were snickering at the scene the two older boys had made.
Kenneth gave him a grin, "Hi Jonghyun," He greeted him, hand tugging at his friend's.
"You do know you just called me an idiot in Korean, right ?" Jonghyun asked him with a grin, raising his eyebrows at the boy who's eyes tripled in size.
"What ? Aw Key, come on, you're such a jerk !" Kenneth complained, expression turning in an annoyed one as he looked angrily at his friend who was still laughing.
... Key ?
Just then, Kenneth's friend looked up, face red from laughing and biting his lip as he cutely fluttered his eyelashes at Kenneth.
Big, big green eyes. Oh god ...
Jonghyun's lungs snapped shut, heart caught up in his throat and jaw clenching. Oh god oh god oh god --
When Key turned his face to Jonghyun, the only thing the monitor could see was blonde, soft hair, deep green eyes and the prettiest face he had ever seen.
He knew Key was pretty three years ago, but ... this ?
The kid greeted him with the sickest sweet smile, it turning into a somewhat devilish grin when he noticed that the older male was still slightly in shock of seeing him there, "Annyeong, Jonghyun hyung,"
--
"Someone might find us," Jonghyun said breathlessly when he reluctantly pulled back from the other, as soon as the words left his lips diving back in.
He felt Key shrug, his fingers tangled in his brown locks and tugging at the roots rather harshly, making Jonghyun moan lowly.
"I locked it," Key said in between kisses, hands sliding down the other's back and sneaking under his shirt, feverishly touching every patch of skin he could reach.
"I don't think these walls are soundproof," Jonghyun laughed softly, detaching himself from the younger boy so that he could pull his shirt off, revealing everything that Key had ever dreamed of. Even though his words said he didn't think what they were doing was a good idea, his actions told otherwise.
The blonde's eyes darkened at seeing his monitor's muscles, deep green orbs twinkling in delight when he raised his head to show off a seductive grin.
His nimble fingers played with the hem of his own shirt, raising it to his belly button, observing the older boy's reaction all the while.
He lifted his shirt a little more, revealing more of his skin and continuing his painful teasing till the point Jonghyun groaned in impatience and grabbed his wrist, with his other hand pulling the other's shirt off in one swift movement.
They were both shirtless now and Jonghyun placed his hands on the other's narrow waist, pulling him closer to his body and pressing their lips back together.
"Are you sure ..."
"I'm legal, who cares," Key cut him off, biting down the older man's lip.
Jonghyun chuckled at how bitchy the blonde sounded, loving how snarky he could get.
"Whatever you say, princess,"
***
Strange and suckish ending.
Leaving how they began "dating" to your imagination because if I had to type out how they began developing feelings for each other all over again, then it would take another 7 chapters.
So yeah, this is "kinda an epilogue"
Lol.
Hope you enjoyed reading as much as I enjoyed writing it
