jisung slowly made his way to the ballroom with chenle's lips still lingering on his cheeks. they were friends, was it normal for friend to do that? was it normal for friends to feel that way?

it's normal for friends to help each other, and that was what jisung did. he helped chenle getting what he want, which was a dance from someone. jisung meant to do it because they were friends but he definitely felt something more that what friends should feel. it reminded him of back then, the feelings he had with chenle.

it's coming back.

in fact, it never disappeared. he just locked it in the most deepest part of his heart but right now it barged out without permission nor a warning.

❝alpha jisung!❞

jisung blinked and got back to his senses as soon as he heard a familiar voice. turning to his side, he saw jaemin smiling at him while patting the seat next to his.

❝are you too deep in your thoughts to even go pass by me?❞ jaemin chuckled and made way for jisung to sit down.

the younger male let out a groan and buried his face down to his palms. ❝hyung, why does everything feel so right but is actually wrong?❞

jaemin furrowed his brows, not understanding a thing about what jisung just said. it took him a good minute before letting out a sound of realization to jisung. ❝you left me a while ago for chenle, how dare you do that?❞

❝don't complain, i know you loved renjun's and jeno's company a while ago.❞ jisung said, clicking his tongue at jaemin.

❝i still have to stab those two.❞ the older said with his eyes squinting and finding two familiar boys smiling at him. he only growled at them before leaning back from his seat. ❝how dare they give me kisses?❞

❝are you not happy about it?❞ jisung wondered why jaemin was mad instead of squealing in love accent.

❝they didn't give out any warnings!❞ jaemin huffed, crossing his arms across his chest and putting his tongue out to the two who are still smiling at him. ❝i could have kissed them back.❞

the younger male followed where his cousin was looking and gave jaemin a look. ❝okay?❞

❝anyhows alpha jisung, what were you upset about?❞ jaemin now turned his attention to jisung who groaned when he remembered what was running inside his head a while ago.

❝it's about chenle.❞

that made jaemin snort. ❝it's always about your friend.❞

knowing how much jaemin always teases him about that, jisung glared at the older male beside him. ❝hyung, it is so weird.❞

❝it's probably normal jisung. after all, he is your friend.❞ the older said, still emphasizing the word friend.

❝stop it.❞ jisung nudged him.

❝stop what, friend?❞

rolling his eyes, jisung looked away from jaemin. ❝i'm your cousin, not your friend.❞

jaemin gasped, in the most fakest way possible. ❝my friend is my cousin?❞

❝you do know it's possible for me to kill you?❞

again, jaemin let out another annoying gasp that made jisung clench his fist. ❝how dare you hurt your cousin, friend!❞

jisung raised his fist, making jaemin flinch from his seat, but luckily for the older, before jisung could actually ruin his face in the worst way, an emcee made her way in the middle of the ballroom. jaemin gave his cousin one innocent smile, that calls for 'spare my life', and jisung grumbled a curse word before putting his fist down and planning to kill jaemin next time.

❝to open this wonderful night..❞

as the emcee was speaking, jaemin too can't help himself to shut up. ❝so, why aren't you leaving yet?❞

❝hm?❞ jisung hummed in a questionable tone as he took some food from the table which they are surrounding and turned to jaemin with his mouth full.

❝you told me that you'll be leaving after eating.❞ jaemin said and the next second he gave jisung one knowing smile. ❝are you here to support your friend? that's cute.❞

gulping the food down, jisung sent jaemin a threatening look. ❝want me to commit murder in front of eveyone?❞

seeing that jisung looked serious, jaemin blinked a couple of times while looking away and went to find something that'll calm jisung down before he could actually kill him right there. ❝oh look jisung! it's your frien— chenle!❞

letting that pass, jisung now removed his attention from the tempting food that's laid out there for them to eat and went to fix his eyes on a familiar cute looking angel that's making his way in the middle of the crowd. he mentally cooed and spiritually cheered for chenle knowing that jaemin was looking at him and is waiting for any blackmail material reactions.

but his mood was ruined when he heard whispers from his back.

"watch him vomit."

"i'm going to bet my whole money that he's going to embarrass himself out there."

"he looks cute though."

jisung could only send them glares and stab them with knives using his eyes but quickly put his attention to chenle who seemed to be uncomfortable in front. taking a deep breath, jisung just hopes that he'll get to sing and show everyone who they are messing with.

with his smile shining and making everyone go soft in their seats, chenle was feeling far different from what he is showing. he didn't know why he was just feeling this now, he didn't feel this way when he was waiting. he was sweating, his hands were shaking as he held the microphone, and worst of all he felt like vomiting.

he's just nervous, that's it.

jisung had his brows furrowed when he could see chenle acting weird. it made him stay alert because of the cameras that facing at him. something is not right and he could feel it.

hold it in, that was what chenle kept on chanting inside his head. he then closed the moment the song started to play. chenle slowly swayed his body from side to side to match atmosphere and also not to be obvious that wasn't feeling good. chenle bit his lower lip, he was now scared to open his mouth now that he could feel something build up from his stomach and going up to his throat.

well, fuck.

❝jaemin, hold this.❞ jisung took his blazer of and is now wearing a white dress shirt underneath, making jaemin drop his jaw.

❝what are you doing?❞ jaemin panicked, worried that jisung might be out of his mind. ❝he's singing, you can't just seduce him and distract him.❞

❝what the fuck?❞ the younger threw his cousin a disgusted look. ❝that's not what i'm going to do.❞

❝then what?❞

❝something's not right, i can feel it.❞ and jisung was ready to move if ever something goes wrong.

he has to sing, chenle has to sing. his part is almost starting. bringing the microphone up to the level of his mouth, chenle opened his mouth and was about to start singing the first word but then shut it back tight and covered it when he felt something coming out.

everyone whispered from their seats and some decided to be jerks and started to film chenle who just dropped the microphone and used both his hands to cover his mouth. chenle wanted to run but the thought of vomiting along the way disgust him. but if he stays there, he would embarrass himself.

taking a step backwards, chenle already regretted doing so. he coughed out and accidentally let out his barf. and the next thing he knows, he was already letting everything out.

everyone then let out surprised gasps at the unexpected sight.

❝ji—❞

jisung stood close in front of chenle and held both the sides of his head, making him lean towards his chest and also covering him from everyone that's taking pictures and videos of him, of them. hearing chenle gag again, jisung just shut his eyes tight and let chenle barf to his clothes.

he still hid him away from the cameras, making sure his face won't be seen.

❝ji..❞ chenle continued to let it out, also sobbing at the same time. ❝i'm v-very sorry..❞

❝sshh chenle..❞ jisung bit his lower lip and looked up. he wasn't disgusted actually, also surprising himself at that fact, and instead he was worried about chenle. ❝just let it out, it's fine. i'm here, i'm just right here.❞

chenle placed both of his hands on jisung's hips and started to breathe loudly and heavily. ❝i c-can't..❞

❝le?❞

❝i can't breathe.❞

fortunately, jisung was there to catch chenle from fall down on the ground that was filled with his barf. not caring about his state and how he looked like right now, jisung carried the older bridal style and glared at everyone who had their phones out.

❝if i see a post about this, better expect for your life to be ruined.❞ jisung said with his voice raised, making sure that what he said went inside of their heads.

and after that, jisung immediately left the scene, the venue, and went out to run at a nearest hospital. he keep on glancing down at chenle chenle who's unconscious and could feel himself panicking. he tried to tell himself that everything will be fine and chenle will regain consciousness back if he arrives to a hospital faster.

jisung wanted to call an ambulance but he just can't drop chenle there, he was already slipping from his arms.

❝chenle, hang in there.❞ jisung mumbled, hoping for chenle to hear.

thanking the gods above, jisung saw a hospital nearby and didn't waste any minute to go inside. seeing that he was in need of help, nurses came to him and also brought out a hospital stretcher for chenle to be laid down.

❝le, stay with me. it's going to be fine..❞ jisung said, pushing the stretcher together with the nurses until he was told to stop since guest are off limits there.

jisung panted while watching chenle disappear from his sight. he was nervous as fuck and just hopes that everything will go well. he didn't care if everyone was looking at him with those looks since he was covered up with barf. jisung stood there, not wanting to leave, until someone would call out for him and tell him chenle's state.

❝ah, it's that person again.❞ a doctor came walking, catching jisung's attention.

❝excuse me?❞

the doctor gave him a smile. ❝is he your friend?❞ if it was jaemin telling him that then jisung would have punched him by now but since it was the doctor, he only nodded his head. ❝well, he came once to have a check up.❞

❝check up?❞ how come jisung didn't know about this? ❝is he going to be fine?❞

the doctor nodded, pushing the door open. ❝yeah, it's just pregnancy kicking in.❞

that's all that made jisung have so many thoughts. pregnancy? what did the doctor mean? chenle was going to be fine, that's something jisung is relieved about. but a lot of questions was running inside his head about chenle's pregnancy.

chenle is pregnant?

no, he probably could have just mistook chenle as another person.

but apparently, he and and the doctor had a talk about chenle's state after that. chenle is now resting in a specific room which jisung still had to tell jaemin and the others about it, meanwhile he is here listening to every information the doctor is saying about chenle.

it's confirmed, chenle is pregnant.

but who? and how?

❝thank you.❞ jisung managed to say as he stood up from the chair and took a bow in front of the doctor.

the doctor smiled and guided him to the door leading outside of his office. ❝no problem, take care of him okay?❞

take care of a pregnant chenle?

❝yes, i will.❞ jisung said with a forced out smile and went out of the room.

he would go to chenle's room after and check if he's already fine but jisung couldn't bring himself to do that. his foot stayed glued in front of the doctor's office. he spaced out and tried to let everything sink in.

chenle is pregnant and he doesn't even know.

chenle is pregnant.

who?

jisung's thoughts were then cut off when he his phone rang. he didn't wait any second and went to answer it after seeing the caller's id. he needs help, he didn't want to do. thinking, should he do something about it?

chenle is pregnant, what should he do?

❝mom?❞ jisung's voice came out as cracked, worrying the person who just called him.

"jisung? is there anything wrong?" jisung sounded like he was crying. it made the mother worry.

❝mom, where are you?❞
