I didn’t know that due to my tight holding, the ticket became crumpled. Yoochun gave me the couple tickets and asked me to go with my “boyfriend”, who was Yunho. I didn’t know what to say exactly at this time
_”Hey, Changmin. Still here?”- Heechul said when sitting next to me
_”Hi, Heechul”- I greeted him, then looked at my watch, it was almost late, I got to go home but I just couldn’t move my legs
_”Actually, I saw over there. I waved you but you seem to a thousand miles away”- Heechul tried to cheer me up by joking
_”I’m sorry. I was a bit busy with my mind”-I said, just couldn’t fake a smile
_”You look so down, what’s wrong with you?”- Heechul passing me a bottle of water seemed concerned about me
_”Yeah”- I began to drink, I wasn’t sure if I could tell him and he would understand me. But I really needed someone beside me-“Do you remember the party on last Thursday night?”
_”Of course, I do. That day was fun”- He smiled
_”After party…”- I hesitated- “I went with Yunho and we headed to a motel”- My embarrassment started as the story flowed
_”I saw him sneak away so early”- He chuckled and calmly said-”Then you slept with him, didn’t you?”
_”How did you know it?”- I was surprised. Did he stalk me?
_”That’s just the way it happens, babe”- Heechul took it for granted
_”The thing is… there is somebody else that I love”
_”And you feel so guilty of yourself because you slept with Yunho, don’t you?”-Heechul said, he was extraordinarily intelligent
_”That’s true”- I admitted
_”Listen to me”- Even though Heechul was 2 years older than me, the way he spoke to me at that time was ageless- “It’s not a big deal. People get one night stand and it doesn’t affect their lives. They even love their partners more. There got to be something else, right?”
_”He got a girlfriend”- I felt bitter when mentioning it-“A long term relationship”
_”That’s it”
_”I feel that he has feeling for me too. They just can’t break up because of me”
_”Come one guy. When people stop loving each other, there is no point forcing themselves. They can have problems before and you’re just a motive for him to break up with her”
_”He’ll never break up with her. He’s a good person and he never hurts anyone”- I shook my head
_”Oh… poor people… put that fucking philosophy aside. That boundary can’t make you together. Believe me. It’s just temporary and he will make up his mind and be with you right away”- Heechul seemed to sympathize with me
_”Actually, I ran away from him too. I am a two timing person. I never doubt my love for him but I start to think about Yunho too. You don’t know how mad I am when he’s close with Jaejoong”
_”Haha. You’re still a kid, Changmin”- Heechul put his hand on my head-“Yunho often tells me about you. I know he treats you like a real brother and you too. It’s just an envious feeling when you see Yunho caring more about other people than you. Actually, you’re afraid that Yunho will stop taking care of you but Jaejoong instead, ain’t you?”
Was it the way I felt? Yeah. I knew some of you have the fear of being ignored when your baby sister/ brother is born. That was the way Heechul interpreted. Obviously, I didn’t seem brokenhearted when seeing Yunho flirt Jaejoong but mad at the way he cared about Jaejoong. Deep down, I knew that he never abandoned me, even when we slept or didn’t sleep together. His attitude towards me didn’t change, then I came to my sense again
_”I got a couple of tickets to Good Charlotte concert. Will you go with me?”
I saw Yunho and Jaejoong talking in an empty class. Jaejoong was hesitating and Yunho looked like as if he was down on his knees begging Jaejoong
_”To have them, I must wait till 3am outside the door. You have no idea how cold it was”
What? The ticket was released on last Friday. To reach there, he must have driven in the mid night of Thursday. That was why Heechul said he had left the party very early
_”Hey”- I shouted at the couple
_”Damn you, Changmin”- Yunho was angry-“You scared me. Do you know that you can die of a fear? It produces a poisonous adrenaline to your body and you die”
_”What did you do on last Thursday night?”- I didn’t give a damn about what he was saying but asked him like police did to criminals
_”I think you already knew”-Yunho shrugged
_”Tell me”- I yelled and Jaejoong was scared, he hid behind Yunho’s back, shaking like a wet cat
_”I left the party at 11pm and drove to Ivory Stadium to buy the ticket. You know. My mother doesn’t like Good Charlotte and she will forbid me to go their concert”. – Yunho honestly said
_”Oh my god, you’re not the one who slept with me that night”- Now I was so confused
_”You…what?”- Yunho questioned and then finally got it-“Changmin slept with somebody”
Damn you, why did you always make fun of me? I really wanted to kill Yunho now…. But I had to put it aside. Who was the one that made love to me last night? I wanted to figure out.
_”Uhm… Yunho… “- Jaejoong slightly raised his voice-“Do you still fancy me?”
As for Jaejoong, I thought I had unreasonably treated him. I thought I lost Yunho for him, but it turned out to be juvenile jealousy. I still owed him an apology
_”Of course”- Yunho immediately replied- “I still keep 1543 paper plane… just in case you need”
This was the first time I saw a shy Yunho. He was like a kid trying to boast about his high mark with parents.
_”Here for you”
Then Yunho showed Jaejoong his crumpled paper plane.
_”What does it mean?”- Jaejoong took it
_”1 is one, 5 is still, 4 is love and 3 is you. I STILL LOVE YOU”- Yunho emphasized on end-ish words
_”Thank you”- Jaejoong said sincerely, feeling touched-“ I thought you stopped loving me when you teased me in front of your friends. But what hurts me the most is when you acted like you never knew me. It makes me realize how cruel I was when I ignored you”
_”I thought I bothered you and your boyfriend”
_”No, Junsu is not my boyfriend”- Jaejoong denied-“He just pretended to be. This was the first time someone confessed their love to me. You know, I was so scared”
_”You’re weird. You weren’t scared when helping a fucking alcoholic in the street but frightened by my paper plane”- Yunho looked surprised
_”I love you too…but I would love to have everything done in private, just the two of us, like…”- Jaejoong’s face became blushy
_”I know. I didn’t care about your feeling. My bad”
_”That’s okay. The thing is we understand each other now”- Jaejoong nodded his head
_”You mean we should do it in a private place. I think it’s a suitable time now”
Yunho was definitely a dodgy boy. He took the chance just in time, placing his hands around Jaejoong’s waist. He was about to kiss Jaejoong
_”But…but Changmin is still here”- Jaejoong was super surprised with Yunho’s action
Then he turned it head to me. My hyung was implying that that was time that i should leave so he could do his own business. That was fine. There was no point for me to stay here to watch other kissing. I shrugged. But before I left, I gave Yunho a thumb up, “You did a good job, Yunho” and he showed his genuine gratitude
Bad as he was, Yunho was honest and persistent in love. That was why Jaejoong loved him
