"hello babe, i'm home!" renjun exclaimed closing the front door of his and jeno's apartment.

"hello!" jeno replied from the kitchen, sounding as adorable as usual.

renjun kicked his shoes off before heading towards the kitchen and approaching his boyfriend who was finishing to prepare their dinner. the smaller male wrapped his arms around jeno's waist before peeking at what was in the pans for dinner.

"you came home later than usual." jeno pointed out, trying his best to act the less suspicious possible. he knew very well why the boy was coming home late. jaemin had come to meet him at the end of his shift, and the two of them had hung out together in order for renjun to become friends with jaemin.

"yeah, i met jaemin after work, and we hung out." renjun explained, caressing jeno's sides. "but i sent you a message to warn you though."

"yes, i saw it." jeno nodded, keeping his eyes focused on the ingredients in his pan. "and what did- hey! don't steal! we won't have anything to eat anymore!" jeno yelled mid-sentence when his sneaky boyfriend stole a piece of meat from the pan when he thought jeno wasn't paying attention.

renjun giggled, getting on the tip of his toes to kiss jeno's cheek lovingly. "it's very yummy, babe." he complimented before letting go jeno and walking to one of the cupboards around.

"mmh, it better be." jeno smiled cutely. "so... what did jaemin and you do?"

"we just hung out." renjun explained, opening a bag of crisps and putting one in his mouth. "walk around the city, stopped on a bench and talked for a while." he continued eating crisp after crisp.

"okay." jeno nodded. "he seems nice." the boy added with a small smirk, hoping to learn more about how his and jaemin's plan was going.

renjun hummed immediately. "oh, he is." he approved. "very chill guy, and pretty interesting. his nose is still under a cast but he said it was feeling better. it still hurts him sometimes, and to numb the pain he rubs the tip of his nose. he's so cute when doing that."

jeno couldn't deny renjun's words. in fact, he had witnessed the hybrid doing this quite a few times already, and he had cooed at him each time it happened.

"yeah, he's- hey, who's your boyfriend?! him or me?" jeno stopped himself when he realised he was about to make a mistake. his cheeks flushed and he didn't even pay attention to his boyfriend as he let out a deep breath, relieved that he hadn't busted himself.

the korean male didn't even listen to his boyfriend justifying himself for finding another male cute as he turned around, facing the window in hope to hide his flushed cheeks after the thing that had almost slipped past his lips.

still ignoring renjun's explanations, his eyes widened when he noticed a white bunny peeking through the window from outside and looking at jeno with eyes that pleaded him to let him in. jeno understood immediately that this was jaemin who had come later than renjun since he had pretended he would go back home on his own despite him and renjun living in the same place – but the smaller male didn't need to know that just yet.

"y-yeah, okay, if you want to be forgiven just go set the table to help." jeno said quickly, facing renjun to make sure he couldn't catch a glimpse of the animal outside.

"of course, babe, i'll set the table." renjun immediately said, passing by jeno's side and pecking his lips before he grabbed plates and utensils and headed to the living room where they would have dinner later.

as soon as he was out of sight, jeno opened the window and delicately grabbed the bunny, bringing him in the cozy warmth of the house.

"everything went alright?" jeno whispered, keeping the bunny in one hand and using the other to grab a wet cloth and wipe the animal's paws after they had walked around the dirty streets.

the bunny answered jeno's question with a nod, making the human chuckle at the animal's cuteness. it was crazy how jaemin could go from being the smallest bunny that jeno could hold with one hand to a giant boy of jeno's height – if not taller. but in both forms, jeno couldn't deny the fact that jaemin was one of the cutest beings he had ever met. renjun kept praising jeno and claiming that he was the cutest, but jeno had to admit that jaemin was even cuter than him, in both his human and animal forms.

"renjun seemed very happy. i'm glad, it means our plan is working." jeno smiled at the small creature, placing the cloth on the ledge of the sink and scratching behind nana's ears.

the bunny squirmed in jeno's palm, making the boy chuckle once again before he crouched and placed the animal on the floor for him to roam around the house freely.

as nana hopped away, jeno concentrated again on the meal he was preparing, making sure that nothing was burning while imagining the next steps of his and jaemin's plan ot make renjun accept the hybrid.

"oh my god! i'm sorry nana! i almost stepped on you!" jeno heard coming from out of the kitchen, making him turn around with wide eyes immediately. and let's say what he saw next didn't help his eyes going back to their normal state...

renjun was walking inside the kitchen with the white rabbit in his amrs, tucked comfortably against his chest as one of his hands caressed the animal's head almost adoringly.

"i didn't even see you, you're so tiny..." renjun let out, looking down at the animal. "don't do that again or you're going to have an accident, okay? we wouldn't want to find you squished under our feet..."

jeno shook his head quickly before crossing his arms over his chest and looking at his boyfriend with a brow raised.

"so, jaemin makes you so happy that you start to enjoy nana's presence?" the korean male asked, doing a small victory dance inside his head as he kept his eyes on his dear boyfriend and his bunny being close.

jeno's words seemed to wake renjun up from his daze, causing him to gasp when he realised what he was doing. "n-no! absolutely not!" renjun exclaimed as he almost threw the bunny back on the floor, making it land on his paws before he pushed him out of the kitchen. "it's not my fault if your rabbit is dumb and doesn't know that he shouldn't stay in the doorways."

"yeah right." jeno rolled his eyes, facing his pans again to keep cooking. "be careful with your words and actions, though... you might hurt jaemin if you're being this bad to a bunny as cute as nana."

the korean male didn't turn around to face his boyfriend as a smirk appeared on his face, understanding by renjun's lack of response that he had hit in the right spot for his and jaemin's plan to work.

a few meters behind him, renjun was stuck on his spot, his cheeks flushed bright red as he slowly realised everything that was happening to him.

yes, he had just grabbed the bunny in a sudden surge of happiness and affection, and he had even petted it and talked to it like he was his beloved owner.

yes, he had done that because he had been thinking about jaemin and the nice evening that the two of them had spent together.

and yes, he had just felt guilty for pushing the rabbit away like that because jaemin would surely find it cute and love it dearly if he came to meet it.

what the fuck was happening to him?

"d-don't cook too much..." renjun let out after a while, hoping jeno's wouldn't turn around and look at him when he was such a mess. "i'm not that hungry tonight."

"it's okay, i'm making plenty so that we have enough for a few days. you can eat whatever you'd like."jeno replied, thankfully not looking at his boyfriend.

renjun hummed, walking to the living room and sitting on the couch while staring at nothing, letting his thoughts running wild and creating a messy and horrific movie in front of his eyes. everything was mixing up and reminding renjun of a situation he wanted to avoid at all costs: falling for someone that is not his boyfriend.

he didn't know what to do or what to think anymore.

renjun was sure that he loved jeno, he had never doubted it. never in his life had he imagined his future without the boy he had met years ago. he still had butterflies dancing around his tummy whenever they would go on dates or even make love. and he wanted nothing else than to marry the boy and spend the rest of his days with him.

but now... now it seemed like jeno wasn't the only one that made renjun feel that way anymore... and even if his effect on renjun weren't as powerful as jeno's, the chinese male was slowly registering into his head that if he felt this fuzzy and happy when he was next to jaemin, then maybe it was because he was starting to like him too, the same way he had liked jeno at first before it morphed into something better, something bigger, something called love.

but could he even love two people at the same time?

was his tiny body able to contain enough love for two people?

or did he only have a limited amount of love in his body? an amount that he would have given all to jeno until then, and that he was now starting to give to jaemin too... but wouldn't that mean that his growing feelings for jaemin were appearing at the detriment of his rooted feelings for jeno?

he had no idea...

one thing was sure, things were getting fucking out of hand, and renjun didn't even know what to do about it. but the worst part in all of that is that in the end, he wasn't even sure he wanted to do anything about it.
