The trio were discussing the usual then Jaehyun noticed Changmin had walked in. "Your husband just came in." "Very funny." They all looked at Changmin who looked lost in thought. "Why are you still sitting here? Go!" Younghoon reluctantly got up from his seat and slowly walked over to Changmin. "You're here early." "Well, I do h-" Changmin had looked up at him and immediately frowned. "You're very persistent." "Because I don't want to lose you? I may be an idiot sometimes, but not when it comes to things like this." "Well, get on with it. What speech did you prepare?" Younghoon chuckled then followed Changmin to a table.

"There is no speech. All I have to say is that I can't just pick someone without knowing exactly what happened. I know how Chanhee can be, but I also know how you can be too." Younghoon put his hand over Changmin's and flashed him a smile. "I guess so..." He noticed that Changmin had a worried look in his eyes. "Is there something wrong...?" "What makes you think that?" "I can see it in your eyes." "There's nothing wrong. Honest." He watched Changmin kiss the back of his hand then smile. "If you say so..." "I'm going to head over and get an early start. I'll see you later." Changmin kissed his cheek then hurriedly left.

"He was acting weird." "We saw it too." Younghoon looked at Jaehyun. "He took out his phone when you looked away and looked like he was texting. And when he left, he did it again." "He was probably answering his dad." "Secretively? Sure." Younghoon sighed then looked at his wrist again. The periwinkle pattern had regained some of its color, but it was light. "I suggest you go after him. Things are usually found out by snooping around." "I'm not going to do it." "Suit yourself. Anyway, I have to get to class." They watched Jaehyun get up from his seat then give Juyeon a brief kiss.

Younghoon looked up from notebook and caught Changmin looking in his direction. Changmin had quickly looked away, making Younghoon question things. He looked to his left and saw Chanhee staring angrily at Changmin. "There's something else going on here..." he thought as he observed the two instead of the actual class. Class eventually ended and Younghoon moved quickly to get to Changmin. "Younghoon." "Quiet." Younghoon took his hand and led him to their secret talking area.

"What's going on? Don't lie to me, Changmin." He waited for him to respond but he remained silent. "It's Chanhee isn't it?" "He said he'd hurt Juyeon if I didn't back away. I know how important Juyeon is to you..." Younghoon sighed then dialed Chanhee's number. "Hey." "We have a long overdue talk." "Okay...Where?" "Dance studio." Younghoon hung up then held Changmin's hand as they walked to the studio he hoped was empty.

They waited for Chanhee to show up then quietly watched a few people practicing. "Younghoon." "Hm?" Changmin shook his head then leaned against him. Chanhee had finally entered with a smile on his face. "Younghoon! And you." "Chanhee, I'm just going to cut to the chase. Just get over me. I don't have feelings for you. And stop with the threats, it doesn't suit you." Younghoon heard Chanhee laugh and immediately became skeptical. "Easier said than done, Hoonie. Who's to say I haven't carried out my threat? That thing doesn't deserve you." "That's not up to you to decide, Chanhee. If you really love Younghoon, you'd respect his decision and support him all the way." They both looked at Changmin who had just laid down words of wisdom.

"That's true, but who says I should have to live by that?" "Chanhee, give it up. Can't you do this for me? Please?" Chanhee looked at the both of them then closed his eyes. "Fine! Only because Younghoon pleaded me to." Younghoon gave Chanhee a hug and rocked side to side. "There's this kid who's been asking me about you. It was Hyun something. I don't know what he wants, but he gave me this to give to you." Chanhee took the paper then walked away. "I was worried that he'd pull a knife on us." Younghoon turned around then flicked Changmin's forehead. "He's not stupid enough to do that." "But smart enough to make threats you can't just ignore." Younghoon sighed then sat on the floor. He was thankful that this episode had come to pass.
