Han Jisung p.o.v.

We are back at the Tokyo airport. And I have anxiety, again. This time however, Minho stands next to me, on my other side there is Changbin.

Chan says something to the bodyguards and we make our extremely chaotic entrance. Luckily everything goes smoothly this time, Minho doesn't leave me for an instant and I feel safe between him and Changbin.

We reach the plane, which is much larger than those we are used to traveling in Korea and Japan. We should spend about 10 hours on that beast.

I immediately look at Minho and, as much as he tries to keep a calm expression, he seems pale.

«Can I sit next to you?» I ask, without even thinking.

He's been so caring to me lately, I want to make myself useful for him too.

Three days ago I woke up in his bed and, after a few moments of panic, I remembered that I had fallen asleep while we were watching a movie. I blushed at the thought of him tucking me in his bed and then I walked out of the room. He and Felix were already awake and Lee Know had ordered a super breakfast for the three of us.

During the concerts we joked a lot. We have a part during 'Domino' song that has became our part. We always get close to each other during that, inventing different ways to interact. The web is already full of videos with the two of us in those moments, the STAYs seem enthusiastic about it.

Lee Know nods and chooses a seat away from the window. I sit next to him, Changbin is positioned to his left.

I smile at the rapper. It's reassuring to see that we support each other so much and Changbin has always been doing it, without even having to think about it.

I refocus on Lee Know who seems to be getting more and more nervous. He can't find a comfortable position, he can't sit still, and when the plane starts to move he stiffens. He closes his eyes and tries to focus on his breathing. I've never seen anyone so scared on a plane, but above all I've never seen anyone so scared and so apparently calm.

I grab both his hands and stroke them gently.

«Everything will be fine, I promise you, Minho-hyung.»

I see him smile a bit, but he doesn't open his eyes: «Nice try, Jagi» he jokes, getting my attempt to distract his mind by calling him 'hyung'.

The plane picks up speed, it will soon take off and leave the floor. Minho's hands grip mine, but it doesn't matter if he's hurting me.

«It's okay, Minho, it's okay. I'm here with you» I keep whispering in his ear.

I give him a small kiss on the cheek and he finally seems a little bit distracted by this.

He keeps his eyes closed but he murmurs: «Don't stop, please».

Glad to be able to help him, I keep giving him small pecks on the cheek, alternating them with calming words:

«You're so brave, Minho. We will be soon in LA, I know you will love the city...»

I'm so busy trying to calm him down that I don't notice how soft his right cheek is and how much I love kissing it.

Finally the plane takes off, stabilizes, and Minho slowly opens his eyes. He looks at me and his eyes are filled with tears. 

«Are you okay?» I ask, worried. I don't know what I would do if he starts crying.

He nods and strokes my hands, still intertwined with his:

«How did you call me, jagi?»

Oh shit, there's that grin again. That means that he's fine now, back to the usual sassy himself. And I'm glad.

So I roll my eyes, smiling.

«Were you so scared you heard voices, Minho?»

He lefts out a giggle: «At least, you call me Minho.»

I stop laughing and realize it at that moment.

Fuck, he's right!

One point for you, Minho-hyung.

We are in LA. The flight went good and the airport was less full than Seoul one. I calmed Minho during the long landing and he never left my side in the airport, not even for a moment.

My room mate in the hotel is Changbin this time, so don't ask me why there is a Lee Know on my bed now.

«Lee Know, you have your own room, do you know?»

«Your bed is better» he says seriously, laying on his back and watching the the luxurious ceiling of the hotel room.

I'm sitting on the bed, next to his head and I lean over to meet his eyes:

«You can tell me that you want to stay with me, tho!» I laugh «You don't have to make excuses»

He turns to me, crossing my gaze:

«Yeah, that's true. I wanna stay here with you, Jagi» he says.

He is not laughing and my heart skips a beat.

«O-okay, so... do you wanna cuddle?» I ask, hesitant. Maybe he needs attention and this is his weird way of asking for it.

His eyes shine and he nods. He puts his head on my lap and I start to caress his hair. I didn't even think about it, my hand just moved by itself.

He falls asleep almost immediately, while I think about how soft his hair is.

I stare at his face, it's extremely cute and innocent when he's asleep and unaccompanied by his sharp words.

I stay like that, looking at his features, for what I think is almost an hour.

Fuck, I think I'm in love with his face.

I laugh at myself.

«What are you laughing at?» he asks, with his eyes still closed.

Oh, shit, he is awake.

«At you, obviously. You are so cute when you sleep, Minho-hyung»

He opens his eyes abruptly.

«Did you finally call me like that?» he seems surprised.

I nod and I scratch my neck: «I think I did it...»

«OMG, I loved it!» he smile.

Why was this so important for him?

«Are you finally satisfied?» I ask, mocking him, and I start stroking his head again.

«Obviously not. Next goal is to make you call me 'jagi'.»

I laugh at his stubbornness. Why is he so obsessed with the way I call him?

«And then?» I ask, curious of his imagination.

«Then you will ask me to marry you» he says, with a convinced expression.

I meet his gaze and I can't help myself: I burst out laughing, throwing my head back. And he follows me, laughing heartily.

«You are really something, Hyung» I say, almost with tears in my eyes from laughing too much.

«But come to think of it... It's weird for me if you call me 'hyung'.» he adds shortly after, fluttering his eyelids.

«Are you kidding me?»

He's been insisting on being called that way for weeks!

«If I tell you what was the nickname I wanted to say during Felix's game, could you call me like that?»

He sounds serious, but that can be a dangerous promise to make.

«Mh... I don't know, you might come up with something embarrassing like 'honey' or 'jagi'» I say, voicing my thoughts.

«I swear, it's not something like that!» he says and he hands me his little finger. Again.

I nod and I lock my finger with his: «Okay, let's listen to this nickname»

«I like... 'Min'» he says, watching my face to see my reaction.

«Oh... that's quite normal by surprise.» I notice. He is still laying on my lap and I look down on him.

He bursts out laughing: «What do you mean by that?» 

«You are weird, you know» I say, enjoying the sight of his laughter. 

«No, I'm not!» he retorts.

«Yes, you are. But that's what I like about you.»

I don't know how that came from my mouth, but he gets up quickly.

«So, do you like it?» he asks, changing the subject, back to the nickname.

«'Min'? I guess it's okay»

I actually think it's adorable, but I don't want to give him too much satisfaction. And I already said too many cute things today.

«I was talking about my strange temper» he explain, with a wink.

I hit his chest lightly, making him laugh.

«Sorry, sorry, just kidding!» he smiles, «So... Can I call you 'Jagi'?» he asks, looking into my eyes. 

And how the hell am I supposed to say no to those eyes?

I puff: «Okay, Min, you win.»
