Jeno was crying while cutting some onions while Renjun left him to play games with Myunghee and Chenle. Haechan was rooting for Myunghee and Chenle while Jaemin supported Renjun, only cause he didn't want his ass whooped.

"Dude, why are you so slow?" Jaemin questioned, confused how Renjun was being thrown away by two individuals who were for a fact, younger to him.

"I'm old here, treat me with some respect," Renjun said monotone, mad at how many times he lost already.

"Yes!" Another win and Chenle high fived Myunghee, the two wore big bright smiles while Jeno was finally done with his onions and had started cooking whatever Renjun gave him before leaving him alone.

Myunghee constantly felt a pair of eyes on her but she didn't pay heed to it, knowing it was Jaemin. She knew he needs time and she was ready for it, she was brave enough to confess first and so she was adamant on receiving the next gesture from him instead of her being the one instigating any relationship between them all of the time, even if that meant ignoring him for some time.

About an hour later they all sat down with edible food in their plates.

"I tried so if it's not fitting your taste, kindly keep the mouth zipped and chew on the food instead," Jeno said before starting with his meal, that he prepared.

"Just a little salty," Haechan said and Jeno pursed his lips, rolling his tongue across his inner cheek.

"I was talking about your attitude not your cooking, damn boy, calm your tits," Haechan said and laughed when Jeno threw a pillow at him.

After the meal they simply sat around the room, playing games or just talking. Jaemin was trying to come up with something, he wasn't the best with words and that only made things worse for him. He didn't want to be a douchebag by not even responding to a confession.

His eyes fell upon Myunghee who was washing the dishes with Renjun and walked to the place, making sure Haechan, Jeno and Chenle didn't notice him leaving. He looked around, there was a room right adjacent to the kitchen where Renjun and Myunghee were and he hid himself there, hoping he wouldn't make a fool of himself.

He bit his lip when he heard Renjun's voice.

"I'll be right back, there's two more plates on the table," he said.

"It's fine, you got soap in your hands, let me get them," Myunghee said, her feet bringing her out of the kitchen and Jaemin acted on reflex, grabbing her arm and pulling her into the dark room.

"Don't scream, it's me," he said immediately and Myunghee knit her eyebrows.

"Jaemin, what the fu-"

"Shh," he whispered and Myunghee noticed that he brought her to her own room.

"Why are we here?" She asked in a whisper and despite the darkness in the room, the little light that entered through the curtains emitted his face just fine.

"Umm, you see," Jaemin started and Myunghee looked at him intently, hoping he'll be able to open up without feeling uncomfortabe, she was patient as she gazed at him.

"Yeah?" She whispered back. Jaemin looked at her straight ahead, his eyes continuing to go down her lips ever so often, the dark around them making his eyes more sensitive. He was lost in thought when his hands went around her waist and Myunghee tightened her hold around his broad shoulders.

He wanted to say it, what he had in his mind and heart but it just felt so hard, he felt afraid.

His lips quivered a bit but that didn't go unnoticed by the girl, her fingers combed the little hairs in his back comfortingly to soothe his nerves.

"Myunghee," he whispered, his mind going haywire, feeling her so close to him.

Myunghee lifted his chin just enough and felt how his plump lips grazed against hers, his heart skipping a beat at the feeling. He pushed all thoughts away when he embraced her lips with his, kissing her gentle to begin with, his hands holding her hips pulled her closer to him, hugging each other as they kissed deeper, his head tilting for better access as he caressed her lip ring with his tongue, leaving his body to act on its own, Myunghee's hand went from his shoulder to his firm chest, rubbing against his collar bones before going back up to hug his neck, pulling him closer as their kiss turned wilder and deeper by the second, the tension filling them till they heard Renjun's voice.

"Did you run away like the others? Wow I need to do everything in here!" Renjun complained and Myunghee heard the boys laughing in response, she pushed away from Jaemin before they could go any further, a thin string of saliva breaking when they pulled apart, hot breaths fanning them as they ached for air.

Jaemin could hear how hard his heart was pounding in the back of his head, mouth agape as he looked at her swollen lips. He gulped, pulling away from her.

"Sorry, I-" Jaemin stuttered but felt a peck on his cheek, making him tongue tied once again.

"Don't be," Myunghee told him and walked out of the room like it was nothing. He was left there in the dark, knowing he was to come to a decision, he never felt his heart beat that hard when kissing someone and he knew he was up for something too intense.
