never regret this
Jaejoong came out of the closet during second year. It wasn’t a pretty sight and he still regrets it till today. He remember being sick and irritated of all the girls asking him to be their date for junior prom, he blurted out in annoyance that he’s not interested to be their date because he’s gay. Since that day his image as the Hottest, Most Popular, and Most Gorgeous Guy in School change when everybody in his school shunned him. At the start of third year, he even got rip off his position as the Student Body president after all the students sent a protest petition to the upper administration demanding that they don’t want a faggot leading them, saying that he does not have the right image and reputation which will become a bad role model for all the students. They even go as so far as accusing that Jaejoong will abuse his power as president to order the student body member in fulfilling his dark desire.
He quickly concluded that his third year of high school is the worst time of his life and wish that all the mocking, name calling, pushing up against the locker, food thrown on his face, and the one time he got beat up in the locker room during PE class because the guys do not want him to be there claiming that Jaejoong will stare at their bits; all those memories, he wish them gone. Right now, he is just surviving and waiting for the year to finish faster.
“Hey, Jae! Wait up!.”
Jaejoong lift up his head from the floor, since the ‘coming out’ incident, that is how he walks nowadays; it’s easier, not looking at people’s eyes knowing they only way they’re looking at him is in disgust.
However, he still curves a smile when he sees his childhood best friend come running towards him. The soccer captain hit him lightly on the shoulder as a greeting. “Stop forgetting that we’re walking home together,” Junsu scolded him and the raven flash him a toothy grin.
Jaejoong admits, the only time he was not harassed by the other students is when Junsu is by his side. Junsu’s reputation as the school’s soccer team captain and student body treasurer did save his ass a lot of time this year and Jaejoong is always grateful for the latter.
As soon as they’re out of the school compound, away from all the other students, Junsu finally ask, “Are you okay?”
Jaejoong is expecting that, so he just smiles. Junsu must have heard about it. News really do travel at a fast rate in his school, there’s no wonder Junsu would have found out even when he had been at the school field all day for a soccer camp. But then, every news about Jaejoong really do travel fast considering who he used to be and who he is now.
The scene this morning replay in his head. It started with a letter that Jaejoong found under his desk when he arrived at school. An anonymous sent it, asking him to go to the senior prom with him. Yes, the sender makes it clear that he’s a ‘he’. By the end of the day, the raven receives more than 50 letters all asking him to be their date for prom. He knows that it’s a stupid prank to humiliate him as if reminding him how he popular he used to be among the girls but now only guys sent him the request. His male classmates wolf-whistle and snicker loudly each time Jaejoong got a letter. It was hard. It was hard to stay quiet and not cry, Jaejoong thought.
Jaejoong just shrug. “You wanna read them?” He casually ask and bump his bag pack against Junsu’s shoulder, he keep all the letters in it. He wish to burn them down as soon as he get to his home.
Junsu sigh, “Jae, I’m sorry.”
The raven hates it. Hate it when Junsu look at him with that sympathy and guilt in his eyes. He understands his reason. Junsu is still keeping himself safe inside the closet. The soccer captain always felt himself to blame whenever Jaejoong got bullied because he believe as Jaejoong’s best friend, he should come out too and deserve the same treatment that Jaejoong got. Jaejoong always told him that he does not have to do so and that he understands him. Even he, himself wish he never came out.
#
He was just about to get into the shower when his phone rings the familiar tone. He practically bolt out of the bathroom, yellow towel clad firmly around his hips, and jump onto his bed. He reach for his bag pack that he had thrown carelessly on the bed as soon as he get into his room, after rummaging in it he manage to pull out his phone. With a breathy voice, he answered it.
“Hello.”
“Don’t tell me you’ve started without me.” A deep chuckle can be heard from the other line.
“Shut up, you pervert. I was running.”
The caller laugh and Jaejoong can’t help but smile. It’s been a long time since he got to hear that laugh and it make his heart flutter now that he heard it.
“What were you doing?”
“Just getting in the shower,” Jaejoong answered innocently.
“Oh, are you in towel?” The caller’s voice drop a few pitch, making it the usual deep voice that never fail to make Jaejoong shiver.
“Yunho, stop it,” Jaejoong whined. “And yes, I am.”
Yunho chuckle again. “I wish I was there.”
“Why?” Jaejoong rustle on the bed, holding the towel that got loose while he’s rolling around just now.
“So that I can see your blush.”
That really did it, Jaejoong feel his cheeks heat up. He hate his boyfriend during this moment, when Yunho seems to know him too well. “I hate you,” he said without any real malice in his voice.
“I know,” Yunho answered simply. “Finish my work early today. Let’s go on a date.”
Jaejoong giggle at that. Yunho always make it sounds casual every time he ask him out but the boy know his five years older boyfriend still feel insecure as if he’s afraid that Jaejoong might reject him. To ease his boyfriend’s nerve, Jaejoong excitedly chirped, “Yes! Where to?”
The high schooler grins when he heard Yunho breathe a relief laugh. “I’ll pick you up. 10 minutes?”
“Ungg~ You know I need more than twenty in shower.”
“Ungg~,” Yunho imitate him in annoying tone.
“Stop that.”
“I like your aegyo.”
“Pfft, I don’t have any aegyo.”
“You do, you just don’t realize it,” Yunho said, affection clearly written in his voice. “And I like when you pout too.”
Jaejoong quickly suck back his jutting lower lip. Did he mention how much his boyfriend knows him and how much he hates it? “I hate you.”
“I know. Half an hour?”
“Okay.”
“Okay. I love you.”
“Love you too.”
He cut off the line and stares at his phone screen. Yunho’s picture decorated it as the wallpaper. The raven ran his fingertip on the screen, caressing Yunho’s smiling face. He smiles, sometime he feels like he is the luckiest guy on Earth.
#
Yunho pulled his car by the road and quickly get out. He opens the door for Jaejoong and holds his hand as Jaejoong step out of the car. The brunette pulls his boyfriend towards a deserted park. It was dark around except for the lone lamp post lighting a small area.
Anyone would interpret a date as either dinner in a fancy restaurant, watching movie at the theater or simply walking around locked arm in arm around the city but such things never implied to them. Jaejoong never demand such things, he never questions where Yunho brought him for their rare date. He knows they can never have the normal date because of who Yunho is unless they want tomorrow’s headlines be ‘Nation’s actor, Jung Yunho, caught on a date with a guy’, or ‘Jung Yunho, the biggest queer.’ No, Jaejoong does not want that to happen. Not to the love of his life.
They sat on a wooden bench right under the lamp post. Jaejoong fidget a little bit, nervousness never failed to envelop him whenever he is near Yunho. It’s true, Yunho is his boyfriend and they have been together for more than a year but in that duration they only have met a few times due to Yunho’s busy schedules preventing them to do so.
Yunho, sensing the awkwardness, tighten his grip on Jaejoong’s hand that he had yet to let go. Jaejoong turn his head towards Yunho, seeing the shy glance of his young lover, Yunho smile sweetly and brighten when Jaejoong return the smile with one of his dazzling one.
“So, how’s school?” The actor broke the silence.
Jaejoong’s lips twitch at the question but he quickly masks his expression with a casual shrug. “Nothing special.” Then he smile playfully, “I got lot of request for prom.”
“Is that so?” Yunho play along, raising one eyebrow to create that sexy look. “Should I be jealous?”
“Lie or truth?”
“Emm, lie.”
Jaejoong giggle. “Then, you should. Because I plan to leave you for my prom date.”
“You’re so sweet.” Yunho pinch his boyfriend cheek lightly, smiling at the 17 years old boy cheeky expression.
Jaejoong sticks his tongue out playfully, earning him another pinch this time on both of his cheeks.
Then, Yunho’s expression became serious. He turns his hands that he have on Jaejoong’s cheeks, palming his lover’s face in his big hands. He stare deep into Jaejoong’s brown orb, that very same big, doe eyes that enter his vision when he first saw Jaejoong in a book shop a year ago and he fell for him. He fell too deep.
“Baby.” At Yunho’s firm voice, Jaejoong lost his smile. “Are you okay?”
The raven was quiet for a moment and he just stare into Yunho’s eyes that never leave his face. “Yeah,” he manages to breathe out. His voice hard without any feelings in it.
Yunho sigh. He let his hands fall from Jaejoong’s face to fall on the latter’s thigh. His hands linger there, caressing the soft ivory skin he knows hidden under the black denim. “Junsu told me about what happened,” Yunho quietly said.
Jaejoong’s shoulder stiffen at that and Yunho must have realize it because quickly put his hand around Jaejoong. The brunette swing one of his leg over the bench so that he is sitting sideways on it, he then pull Jaejoong closer towards him. The raven let himself be pulled into the embrace and immediately melt into it. He had missed it. Miss having Yunho’s arms around him, holding him in his bear hug. He settles himself comfortably with his arms around Yunho’s torso and his head on Yunho’s chest.
Jaejoong let out the breath that he doesn’t even realize he had been holding when he felt Yunho’s warm hand on his back, gently rubbing him and his other hand petting Jaejoong’s head.
“It’s okay now. You’re with me. You don’t have to be strong anymore.” Yunho tenderly kiss Jaejoong on his nape as he utter the words.
At that moment, Jaejoong felt the safest he ever felt in his life and a trail of tear leak out from his eyes. He hid his face against Yunho’s chest and cried his heart out.
#
“No, Su. I’m not going,” Jaejoong said for the tenth times that day.
“But, Jae. You have to!”
Jaejoong groaned in annoyance. “I don’t want to!”
“Jae, it’s senior prom,” Junsu said simply as if that alone can explain the whole reason.
“So?”
“It’s senior prom. We only got through one senior prom in our life. One! Once!” Junsu insisted.
“Su, do you know what have I gone through this year, right? What makes you think that I want to go to prom?”
“I understand.” Junsu flopped on the bed next to Jaejoong and put his hand on Jaejoong’s shoulder, an appreciative gesture. “But I want to go to the prom and I need you to be there with me.”
“What do you mean? You want me to be your prom date?” Jaejoong asked incredulously.
“No!” Junsu sound scandalized. “As my friend.”
“Enlighten me.”
“Okay. I got a boyfriend?”
“What!” Jaejoong eyes widen impossibly. “Su, that’s great news. You never told me anything about this.”
“We’ve only got together last week and I want it to be a surprise for you,” Junsu smile brightly at the talk of his boyfriend. “That is why I need you at the prom.”
A look of realization crossed Jaejoong’s face. “You mean…”
“Yes, I’m taking my boyfriend to prom which also mean everyone in school will finally find out that I fancy cock.”
“Oh, Su.” Jaejoong hug his best friend. “Are you sure about this? This is a big decision, I mean, you see what happen to me, right? I don’t want you to go through such thing too,” the raven voice out his worries.
“I’m sure and I’m willing to face whatever shit that will happen because I know my boyfriend and my bestfriend will be by my side. Right?”
Jaejoong looks determined when he said, “You know I’m always with you and I will go to the prom. Because of you.”
#
Jaejoong was grateful. Grateful for the loud music blasting because it help to drown all the voices that keep throwing insult at him. Again he rethink on his decision of attending the prom, but then his eyes fall on Junsu and his boyfriend who Jaejoong met just now, Park Yoochun, a student from the neighbouring school. Both of them were talking and laughing, without even caring of the entire hatred stare shooting at them. Then, Yoochun openly caress Junsu’s face which makes the latter blush, he definitely does not regret coming tonight, he decided. It means so much to Junsu.
He let the couple be as he sits alone at the table, far off in the corner, trying so much to make himself invisible. He keeps himself busy by playing with his phone, going through his inbox and reading all the old message from Yunho. Last message that he receive from his boyfriend was this morning which Yunho inform him that he’ll be in Japan for a drama shoot.
Jaejoong puff out his cheeks. He wishes Yunho was just an ordinary guy. Not the Nation’s Actor or the Nation’s Boyfriend. He wishes he can bring Yunho to prom like Junsu. He wishes Yunho can sweep him off his feet, and save him from the reality. But he can only wish.
The boy was too deep in his thought that he didn’t even realize that the music had stop. He keeps his head down and his gaze firmly on his phone screen. But when a girl standing behind him blurted ‘Omo, is that really Jung Yunho?’, did Jaejoong finally woke from his stance. He lifts up his head and his breath was taken away.
There, standing a few feet away from him was Jung Yunho, the famous actor, the Nation’s hero, the Noona’s sweetheart, Jung amazing Yunho. Yunho look exactly like a cut out from fashion magazine in his black tuxedo, perfectly tousled hair and that dazzling smile on his face. That smile, the same smiles that Yunho flash to the reporters and his fans but this time it’s only for Jaejoong.
His gaze transfixed on his boyfriend’s face that he didn’t even realize that Yunho had approach him. As the hazel orb came nearer to his face, Jaejoong felt his throat dried and all of his blood shooting up, gathering at his cheeks resulting on the deep pink blush forming there.
Yunho held out his hand, smile never leaving his face. “May I have this dance?”
Jaejoong hesitate. His eyes wildly scan through the faces in the hall, some have a stupid look, some were shooting glares, some look at them in disdain, most of the girls look like they were about to cry probably from heart broke but then Jaejoong saw Junsu at the other end of the hall. The latter was smiling brightly, holding up his two thumbs up, that make Jaejoong smile.
He turns his gaze back on Yunho. Curving a timid shy smile, he took Yunho’s hand and immediately feels glad he did so because Yunho’s warm hand wrap tightly around his and Yunho had a brilliant grin on his face as if he had won a Daesang.
Yunho tug Jaejoong up from his seat and pull him towards the center of the dance floor. Spotlight focus on them as a slow song starts to play. Yunho put his around Jaejoong’s slim waist and it felt natural to Jaejoong when he slid his arms around Yunho’s neck as they swayed to the music. Then, Yunho lean down and Jaejoong tip on his toes meeting him halfway for a kiss.
Yes, Jaejoong hates his boyfriend for knowing him to well but he will never regret him. Never regret them. Never regret what they have.
