renjun and jeno had brought jaemin back to the dream dorm.

the younger boy had been crying a lot, and he was exhausted, causing him to doze off and fall asleep on mark's bed.

jeno was the one to pick him up, allowing jaemin to wrap his arms and legs around the strong boy's body.

when they got to the dream dorm, jaemin refused to let go jeno, and so, renjun and jeno chatted in jeno's room, which jaemin clinging onto him in his sleep.

both renjun and jeno pitied the poor boy.

his life unrolled so horribly.

first, knowing about his heart disease.

then, living with this huge secret.

after that, the whole world finding out about it.

then, him being fired from his company.

and finally, his learning that it was his mother's fault.

yeah, it wasn't so happy...

"he's waking up." jeno told, feeling jaemin squirm in his sleep, loosening his grip on jeno's body.

jaemin's eyes opened slowly, the sleepy boy staring at jeno and inhaling his manly scent first thing after waking up.

"hello, beautiful." jeno whispered, making jaemin flush red.

renjun smiled, coming to sit next to jeno on the bed.

the boy lifted jaemin easily, plopping him on both their laps.

jaemin was beet red at that point.

"how are you feeling now?" renjun asked, caressing the fragile boy's hair.

"okay..." jaemin replied as he leaned against the boys' chests.

"jaemin..." jeno spoke. "we're so sorry about everything that's happening to you..."

"it's okay... you can't do anything about it anyway..." jaemin told with a sad smile.

"we really mean it." renjun said, cupping jaemin's cheeks and bringing their faces close.

a bit too close to jaemin's liking.

the boy was squinting to examinate the space left between their noses which was very little.

"y-yeah... and i'm very thankful to have you two..." jaemin whispered, his eyes looking into renjun's deep brown ones after a second.

the door of jeno's room opened, revealing donghyuck.

"huh..." the boy stopped in his tracks, making the three boys jump. "am i disturbing something...?"

"no, no. nothing!" jaemin squeaked, wanting to punch that smirk off donghyuck's face.

"good then. jeno, manager-nim wants to see you."

"is it something bad?" the boys asked, lifting jaemin easily and placing him fully on renjun so that he was straddling the chinese boy's thighs.

"oh, no. it's about 'misfit'."

jeno nodded, walking out of the room after throwing the two boys a smile.

jaemin eyed donghyuck who was mouthing him 'love is in the air' with an even larger smirk than before.

thankfully, he closed the door, leaving jaemin and renjun alone in the room.

"did you know donghyuck and mark had a thing going on?" renjun asked out of the blue.

jaemin nodded. "i saw them eating each other's facing in the bathrooms during the resonance photoshoot."

renjun chuckled at jaemin's disgusted face.

"you witnessed that..." he asked between laughs.

"yeah. and it was pretty traumatizing." jaemin replied. "not only the view, but the sounds... donghyuck was moaning as mark pinned him to the wall and... i don't want to remember about it..." he declared, sharing his head.

renjun smiled, using his hand to make jaemin face him completely.

"have you ever kissed someone?" renjun whispered, his eyes glancing at jaemin's lips for a second.

"no." jaemin replied, feeling shy. he was more than 20 years old, and never had his first kiss... what a loser...

"waiting for the right one?" renjun asked with a brow raised.

jaemin shrugged. "i just never found someone to share a meaningful kiss with..."

renjun nodded, shamelessly looking at jaemin's lips. the boy on his lap was looking elsewhere, and he kept nibling his lips, making renjun feel all sorts of things inside.

"so... you don't know how wonderful kissing someone feels like..." renjun spoke, waking up from his staring trance after a minute.

jaemin shook his head. "do you?" he asked.

renjun nodded, and jaemin felt insecure for a second.

renjun had already kissed someone. renjun had experience.

perhaps that the person renjun had kissed was jeno?

honestly, this thought didn't bother jaemin as much as it used to, and it kind of scared him.

"how is it?" jaemin asked.

"wonderful..." renjun replied, looking at jaemin's lips. this time, the younger noticed it, but he didn't say anything. "and it's even better if you kiss someone you love..." he added, his eyes meeting jaemin's.

the fragile boy felt his heart speed up in his chest.

renjun's stare was so intense it made him all jelly inside.

the two boys were face to face, and the fact that jaemin was sitting on renjun's lap made them way closer than they used to be.

"so... you kissed someone you love?" jaemin asked, his eyes glancing at renjun's lips. he started to wonder what they would feel like.

"i did..." renjun replied, smiling when he saw jaemin looking at his mouth. "but not completely..."

jaemin looked into his eyes, his brows furrowed.

"what does that mean?"

"well... let's say that i didn't kiss them fully yet..." renjun smirked.

"yet?"

"i'm planning to do so..." renjun replied. "as soon as possible..." he added, leaning in.

unconsciously, jaemin inched closer, approaching his face from renjun.

he didn't understand what was happening to him.

he was supposed to dislike this boy.

renjun was stealing jeno away from him.

but maybe that donghyuck was right...

perhaps, jaemin did have feelings for both renjun and jeno.

after all, he was wondering what renjun's lips tasted like at the moment. not jeno's.

and he was leaning towards renjun. not jeno.

their noses bumped, and they stopped inching closer.

their mouths were separated by two centimetres.

they could feel their breaths mixing.

jaemin had his eyes on renjun's lips, wanting more than ever to let himself go and kiss renjun.

renjun looked at jaemin's beautiful features, not resisting anymore.

"can i...?" he whispered, the movement of his lips causing them to brush against jaemin's.

"please do..." jaemin replied, his eyes never leaving renjun's lips.

renjun didn't need to be told twice.

he used his hand to cup jaemin's cheek and bring his face a few centimetres closer, making their lips meet in an explosion of feelings.

their hearts echoed in their ears as renjun was guiding jaemin through the kiss, but it was the best feeling ever.

jaemin may have never kissed anyone before, he was sure of one thing.

he was in love with renjun as much as he was with jeno...
