Stuck With You - Minsung

Chapter 20 - Planning

Fuck these hand cramps.

All day I've been trying to draw out a baseline sketch for my final. Yet it just never seems right. I've drawn this many times but it feels different this time since I have other plans.

Other plans that I was going to tell Chan. But I've been waiting on a bench in the front of the school for a good ten minutes massaging my cramped hand. The old man is taking his time I guess.

There was a lot to think about for this final. The teacher gave us full freedom, we could choose any media and anything we wanted to draw. Sure did that open our artistic creativity.

But also I have no clue how to choose.

A simple sketch seems to... bland maybe? But painting with acrylic is too far, I'm not putting in that much effort.

So the plan was watercolor.

Stretching my hand back, I feel the bench move as Chan sits down. "You okay?" I mutter as I see the red tint on his face.

"I-I got a text... from-"

"Jeongin?" I finish his thought based on his flushed self. He frantically nods and pulls out his phone to show me.

He clicks on the contact named: Innie my future bae❤️

I know not to ask about that.

He pulls up their texts to reveal the last thing Jeongin had sent him. A simple 'See you soon hyung'

Except there was a kissy face next to it.

A full on 😘

Even I gasped a little.

Maybe this was normal for some people? I didn't have much expierence with different personalities. However, this was a sign.

This janitor boy might actually start to like my best friend.

Who would've thought?

"Hyung I never thought this day would come.." I wipe a few fake tears as I pat his shoulder.

He gives a very obvious side eye in return.

I suddenly remember why I wanted to talk to the older.

"Hyung..." Chan notices my tone and turns to face me, stopping his glares. "I'm going to draw him. For our final."

Silence for a good ten seconds.

And then a high pitched squeal to which I plug my ears. "Oh my god!!! Your actually going to do this? No more secretly hiding your attraction?"

"I mean I was also going to give it to him after the teacher grades it."

Another high pitched sound escapes Chan's mouth. "Oh my oh my goddddd!!" He puts his head into his hands and shakes it, "So youre actually going to tell him. You're going to confess?"

"Well I don't really know- I mean I'm still figuring things out and I don't think he even likes me as a roommate..."

"Come on Minho!" Chan pulls his head out of his hands and placed one on my shoulder, "This is your chance."

"M-maybe. I've never done anything like this." I keep my head low and play with my fingers.

"Well you better work hard okay? Show him your effort." Chan sends me a sweet smile.

But the sweet smile drops as a shout comes our way.

"Chan hyung!"

Our heads immediately look to the voice as a cute boy comes running over. The 'future bae' of Chan.

He quickly runs over and grabs onto Chan's hand to which the older immediately turns a bright red. "I've been working on a new range! And I just got off my shift!" Jeongin smiles brightly, showing off his coo worthy dimples.

Chan looks my way for a moment but I shoo him along, "Have fun guys!" I pat the olders back as he sends me a goofy smile.

With that, the two love birds walk away hand in hand.

****

There was also another problem in my plan.

I hadn't talked to jisung in the past few days.

We've both been busy studying our asses off, the only time I really interacted with the boy is when I would give him his dinner or tell him it was time to sleep.

A part of me felt a little heartbroken almost.

I knew jisungs didn't like me in the way I want him too. Sure he's not dating Felix but, I'm just a roommate to him.

We are so different.

Our lives have been so different.

He probably thinks of me as a rich snob and I'd only distract him from his work. I mean I haven't forgotten about the way he was warning about Felix.

Like he was a bro helping a bro out.

I don't want to be bros.

Ugh why is this feeling stuff so complicated.

"Hyung?" I lift my head up from my desk at the sound. I hadn't even heard the main door open.

The boy walks over to me and places his hand on my forehead, almost like he teleported from me just thinking about him. "Minho are you feeling alright? You're really red."

"H-Han? You're back early?" I straighten my posture and close the book infront of me. Praying with all my heart he didn't see the base sketches I was working on. The different angles I was trying out to see which was best to draw. It was kind of creepy.

"Hm yeah." He smiles and sets his bag by his bed, "The library was too crowded so I told seungmin I'd study at my dorm." He sighs and spreads his arms before flopping onto the bed, staring at the ceiling.

Something about him was different today. Maybe it was the fact that that was the most words he's said to me in a while, but something was off.

Jisung softly closes his eyes, staying in the same spread out position over his bed. I look a bit closer at his oversized crewneck. It looked very oversized. More than I've seen jisung wear.

And it clicks.

"Jisung are you wearing my clothes?"

His eyes shoot open and his upper body quickly rises. I squint my eyes at him and the visible Gucci written across his top.

"W-what nooo.." He rubs his neck with his hand, more like his sleeve since the sweatshirt was so big.

We stare at eachother for a moment with jisungs eyes being wide and my head tilted.

And then I burst out laughing.

"Pffff H-Han it's so big on you!" I clutch my stomach from the laughs. Jisung turns red this time and glares at me. He wasnt expecting to suddenly be called out like this.

"Y-yah I just wanted to wear nice clothes you know?" He grabs a pillow and chucks it at me as I continue to laugh. "You're such an asshole!"

"N-no it's cute." I wipe my eyes from the tears that came with laughing. Jisung stays silent for a few seconds however.

"Cute?"

Shit

I didn't know I let those words slip.
