The jealousy that lies within

0.3

☆☆☆

The ride to the airport was a bit awkward with what had happened only a few hours ago. No one was mad at him, but Sunoo felt bad for bringing the mood down right before a two hour flight. The two groups were spread throughout the plane but luckily Sunoo got a window seat, and so far the seat next to him was empty and he hoped it stayed like that.

"Hyung," Sunoo looked up and smiled when he saw Niki standing in the aisle. "Hm? Is this your seat Niki-ah," Sunoo asked with a tint of tease in his voice. Niki blushed and leaned in closer to Sunoo's seat, "hyungg stop teasing me! You enjoyed it just as much as I did," Niki said with a hint of embarrassment. Sunoo smiled at Niki then asked, "So who are you sitting by then?" Sunoo saw Niki's smile turn down and then watched as Niki looked away from him. "Niki? What's wrong?" Niki turned back to face him and had a sorry look on his face, "K-hyung," Niki said.

Sunoo's smile dropped slightly but he promised himself not to get jealous over these things anymore. Plus with what happened not long ago with Niki, he's pretty sure he has no reason to be. Sunoo thought back to a few hours ago and felt his cheeks go red. He answered quickly before Niki saw him go red and embarrass him more, "O-oh okay."

Niki watched his face go red and was confused but heard the disappointment in his hyung's voice. "Don't worry! I'll probably sleep the entire time since I didn't get much last night. So no need to worry Sunoo-hyung!" Sunoo couldn't help but smile at Niki's words and went to speak but got cut off by another voice, "Hey Niki, Sunoo." They both looked up at the sound of another voice and saw Sunghoon standing a few feet behind Niki.

"Hey Sunghoon-hyung, is there something wrong?" Sunoo asked.

Sunghoon smiled at Sunoo then answered in a relieved tone, "Oh nothings wrong. This is my seat though. I'm so glad I can sit next to someone I know rather than some random person."

Sunoo was a bit sad about losing the whole row to himself, but he was glad it was one of his members and not some stranger. "Oh! That's great, I'd rather sit next to someone I know as well," he answered with a bright smile.

Sunoo heard Niki clear his throat and looked up to see his boyfriend glaring at Sunghoon. Sunoo could see a tint of jealousy in his eyes and smirked at that. He fake coughed and Niki looked away from Sunghoon and stared into Sunoo's eyes for a moment before the eldest spoke up again.

"Well, the plane's gonna take off soon, so you should go sit down, Niki." Sunghoon said calmly.

Sunoo pulled Niki in close and kissed him hard, he bit the younger's bottom lip slightly then pulled away. He was only a few inches away so he could still feel Niki's breath on his lips. Sunoo moved his lips inches away from Niki's ear and spoke in a teasing tone, "Are you jealous Niki-shi?"

He felt Niki take a slow breath and felt the younger lean in closer to his ear and spoke in the same tone as him, "Hyung, why would I be jealous when I have you all to myself?"

Sunoo blushed at that and closed his eyes and felt Niki pull back again. This time Niki started the kiss and sucked on Sunoo's bottom lip before biting down softly, then licking over the bitten spot before pulling away from his lips. Niki looked at the state of Sunoo and loved how he could make his hyung get so red with just a few words. He was only Sunoo's and Sunoo was only his.

Niki smiled brightly, then leaned in closer to Sunoo's face and lowered his voice, "Plus I showed you earlier just how much you mean to me didn't I?" Sunoo's face went even more red and he turned towards the window while shoving Niki's face away as the other snickered then said, "See you later hyung." Sunoo then felt a hand ruffle his hair and a quiet laugh as Niki walked away.

It was quiet for a moment before Sunoo heard a voice speak up,"Well that was something. God, why'd I have to be the one to witness that?"

Sunoo laughed at his hyung's words and looked up when he felt his blush had passed and smiled at him, "Sorry hyung. But sit down! I think the plane is about to take off." Sunghoon shook his head and sat down in the aisle seat so there was an open spot in the middle.

"Anyways i'm guessing things are good with you and Niki are good again?" Sunghoon asked.

Sunoo turned his head and answered, "Oh, yeah! It was just some misunderstandings. But we're all right now!"

Sunghoon smiled softly before saying, "I'm glad. It's hard to see you two mad at each other when yall are usually connected by the hip."

"Ha, we are not! We just have lots in common so we do a lot of the same things!" Sunoo defended himself.

Sunghoon smiled while shaking his head, "Sure, whatever you say. But really, I'm glad y'all fixed everything, so is the rest of the group."

Sunoo smiled at his words and nodded his head before a voice spoke overhead and the flight attendant started gathering everyone's attention to start the safety presentation. Sunoo ignored it as he had heard it plenty of times and looked out the window before a buzz caught his attention. He looked down and saw his phone screen lit up with a new message. He clicked the message and a smile grew on his lips seeing it was from Niki.

'Hyung, I'm fixing to power my phone off but I wanted to say have a safe flight! I'll see you when we get to Japan. I love you Sunoo-hyung.'

Sunoo grinned at the text and quickly replied before the younger shut his phone off.

'Niki, we're on the same flight?'

His phone buzzed as Niki answered.

'I know but still wanted to say it'

Sunoo smiled again before typing.

'Have a safe flight Niki-ah. I'll see you when we land. I love you Niki!'

Sunoo waited until he saw the message was read and turned in his seat to look back at Niki and saw the younger smiling, then putting his phone in his bag. Sunoo turned back and shut his phone down as well and put it in his bag. Sunoo grabbed his neck pillow, putting it around his neck, and grabbed his headphones before plugging them into the tv screen and playing a random playlist. He let his eyes shut and listened to the music before drifting off to sleep.

Niki was smiling as he powered his phone down before putting it up and grabbing his head phones before a voice spoke up, "Who's got you smiling so brightly?" Niki let his smile drop before turning and facing K. "Oh it was Sunoo-hyung," he replied shortly.

He saw K nod his head then reach forward to touch his head, but Niki moved and shoved his hand away before he could touch. Niki saw a flash of hurt cross K's face but looked away and plugged his headphones.

"I'm gonna sleep. Wake me when we get there?" Niki said.

When No reply was said, Niki looked over at K and saw the older staring back at Niki. "K-hyung," Niki raised his hand and moved it in front of K's face. The older finally broke out of his trance and shook his head before saying, "What? Yeah sorry, I'll wake you when we get there." K then turned away and put on his own headphones before laying his head back and closing his eyes.

Niki looked away from K and let out a breath. He wasn't angry or anything, but it did feel nice to not have K all over him and constantly touching him. He felt bad for K, but he needs to know boundaries. Now that he had a talk about it with Sunoo, he feels more brave and able to tell K not to touch him all the time.

Niki leaned his head back, closing his eyes, and listened to the music playing through his headphones before drifting off to sleep.
