I’mthe one who likes you so what am I expecting?

hello.
This story is a short fic that I wrote for a friend.
Which we thought about since last year(...)
The reason for naming the fic "79" is that it means "friend".
I thought of this myself because Chin has the same sound as Chill, which is the number 7 and is written with 7 lines.
For me, the number 9 became 79.
In fact, the fic is much shorter than this, but I enjoyed writing it until it was long.
Because we are easy-going people, we cry easily. So it didn't come out as sad.
Next time I'll fix it again!
Finally, please leave your feedback through tags and comments.

Your beautiful smile
Your trembling deeds
Your deep, hoarse voice mesmerizes your listeners.
These things made Ijeno's heart work hard, but he had to keep his heart closed tightly to prevent him from showing his feelings.
In the end, the word friend became a word that I unconsciously hated, especially when it came from someone named Na Jae Min.
Jeno thought about it many times because we often hugged and even kissed. The touch of rough hands is a great tool for making his heart flutter whenever he talks about status or relationships. He only got the same answer.
“Jaemin, what do you think I am to you?”
Doyou love me? Like I love you
“I don't really want to talk about it. But you already know this.”
“How are we close friends?”
Doyou love me? I don’tlove you
Pretty funny...
Jaemin's eyes were so different from Jeno's. The feeling of saying the word friend was honest and he had no hope of changing this state.
It hurts...that the other party never thought of him as more than a friend.
It hurts...that he was the only one who thought so far.
It hurts...that the other party never said words of love from his mouth like he had hoped.
But he never thought of confessing because he was afraid of losing this person.
Originally, we spent our weekends together not reading comic books, playing games, or just hanging out like normal teenage boys. When new people come in, things that have always been done together become difficult. It was as if Jaemin was slowly drifting away from Jeno more and more.
“Hwang Injun, nice to meet you.”
“As well, I'm Jeno.”
“This is the first time I've met you. I didn't think he was this handsome. Jaemin often tells us stories about Jeno.” He greeted with a friendly smile and used his eyes to study his face. Is this the person you've been trying to avoid all this time?
“Is he as handsome as Jam?”
“Much more handsome! I'm going to go buy something for my little brother for a moment." Injun walked out and Jaemin hugged Jeno's neck and touched the corners of his mouth with his fingers to make him smile.
"Come hang out together and smile a little. Jeno smiles cutely." Slowly, he smiled widely naturally even though he didn't feel happy in the slightest. "Like this."
“What about Donghyuck?”
"I see you're almost there... How is Injun? Cute, right?"
"It's cute. It looks good on you."
"Really? I'll probably talk for a while and then try asking to date you. What do you think?"
What are you talking about?
“Keep talking, but what are you carrying?” Jaemin removed his hand from Jeno's neck before reaching for the bag the little man was holding.
“Chenle's snacks. He was crying and wanted to eat, so I bought it for him.”
“Very kind. I want to have something like this. I'll invite you to treat me to chocolate bingsu every day,” Jaemin teased, and in his heart he really thought that, but not in the status of friends or siblings, rather lovers.
“Raise Jam every day. We are quite poor.”
“So, is it a good idea to change to eating together every day?”
"If diabetes asks for We are not responsible.”
“Oh, please take responsibility for your (feelings).” Jeno stood quietly listening to their teasing sentences. Little by little, jealousy began to increase within me.
The vibration from the phone in his pocket couldn't be anyone else but Donghyuk's caller, so Jaemin asked to answer the phone. Leaving Jeno alone with Injun, an uncomfortable atmosphere began to form. Therefore, Injun chose to start the conversation first.
“Does Jeno not like us? Jaemin has invited me several times and he hasn't come.” It seems like it's made it even more awkward than before.
“No...we're just a little busy.” He lied a big lie on purpose.
"Then from now on let's come together often. Traveling with many people is fun."
“We live together and it's not fun and we don't talk much.” This time he responded with sincerity because many roommates always tell him this.
“We don't talk much and it's hard to keep up with Donghyuk. Haha.” Keep deflecting the topic to reduce the awkwardness, but that doesn't help much.
“Who mentioned Donghyuck's name?” It was like heaven had sent Donghyuck to help destroy this atmosphere.
“Geno! Jeno said Donghyuck said— oh.” Injun was lightly smacked on the forehead by Donghyuck once. Jaemin managed to turn his face and show a pained expression, blowing the pain away.
“Friends, haven't you forgotten that there are people named Jeno and Donghyuck standing here?” he interrupted, annoyed. This is different from the other person who is feeling more jealous.
If they all feel the same
As for us, we just secretly like one side.
What else can you hope for?
“I won't forget, should I watch a movie or sing a song?” Jaemin asked.
“Want to sing/sing!” was the response from Donghyuk and Injun, while Jeno didn't comment.
“What about Geno? Do you want to sing?”
“Whatever.”
“Let's just sing a song.”
The four of them headed to their usual karaoke shop, but Injun had been with them for the first time. Donghyuk took care of the expenses and let the rest choose water and snacks before heading to their rooms.
“The microphone must be ours!” Donghyuck ran straight and grabbed the first microphone. It looked like that microphone probably wasn't being sent to anyone else. Injun was the other person holding the microphone.
“Jaemin, turn off the lights,” the number one person holding the microphone commanded, seeing that Jaemin had walked in last.
“What should I sing, Donghyuk!” He used his eyes to scan the song names in the notebook until he stumbled upon a song. “Let's sing this song.
hopelesslove
of Park Jimin"
Jaemin volunteered to press the remote to search for songs. While waiting for the music to start, the two people holding the microphones checked their voices and when the lyrics flashed on the screen, they immediately began singing together.
How beautiful is that smile?
Time stopped when I met you
When that love happened to me
what you say your movement
Make my heart work hard
But I must close the door on my heart tightly
The way you look at me is different from the way I look at you.
It's sad to know your feelings
Seeing you, you know that there is no way to hope.
It's hard for me because I love you so much.
It hurts to hear that we're just friends.
Even though it hurts, I can't go back to where I was before.
이 Hopeless Love
This is hopeless love.
The song ended with a score of 95, which is considered satisfactory for a man who sings about women. Injun handed the mic to Jaemin. He looked at it but received it confusedly before being pulled up to go sing a duet with Donghyuk instead. The person who had just given up the microphone picked up a tambourine to help with the rhythm and sat down next to Geno.
"Isn't it fun?"
“I don't really like singing. I'm more skilled at dancing."
“Then let's get up and dance next song. We saw that Geno was not having fun and regretted choosing to come here.”
"No, it's better to listen to other people singing," Jeno denied in case Injun would feel better.
"This...just now, when we were singing."
"Is there something wrong?"
“Why are you secretly looking at Jaemin with such a sad expression?”
"Do you like Jaemin?"
His heart was beating fast with the rhythm of the music that was currently playing. The question was like an arrow, with Injun shooting it into the center of his heart. Your throat is dry, even though you just drank water. His face felt numb and numb for a moment.
"What did you say?" I tried to keep my voice from stuttering, but Injun couldn't tell.
"Your face shows it all. There's no need to hide it."
Jeno was silent for a moment and then replied. "We like Jaemin, so what can we do?"
Since he likes you?
This time they were both silent. Injun isn't a little kid who doesn't know that Jaemin is flirting with him. He's just curious about the relationship with the person in front of him and chooses to ask frankly because the two of us hardly have a chance to see each other because we study in different classes and Jeno seemed to like avoiding him.
“Donghyuck, let Jeno sing some songs. Jeno wants to sing!” shouted the person who had just finished singing and was choosing a song to look up.
“Like Geno. Did you force him?” Donghyuk replied.
“Well, Jeno hasn't sung a single song yet. Go sing with Jaemin.” Use all your strength to push the other person up. Donghyuk handed over the microphone so he had to leave.
“Do you want to sing a song?” As he opened the notebook and looked at the song list, he turned to ask the person who had been quiet since entering the room.
“It's up to you.”
“I want to sing.
some
But it's better to save it to sing with Injun. Your voice is too deep, probably not appropriate,” Jaemin whispered softly so that only the two of them could hear.
"cry
love me right
of
EXO
Together” decided to choose the song himself and pressed without delay.
While singing, we made some eye contact. Injun and Donghyuk got up and danced, helping to make the atmosphere more lively than before, but Jaemin still only looked at the person who smiled and showed his fangs while singing the lines.
just love me right
Stay well
When the song ended, Jeno knew what he should do. He handed the microphone back to Injun and sat still as usual. Looking at it with the naked eye, it could be seen that Jaemin was intent on singing.
some
How much are you with another person?
An hour and a half had passed since the scheduled time for the karaoke room, so he walked out of the shop and headed home.
“Jam, you don't have to send us off. We can go back on our own with Jeno.” I tried to deny it from the moment I was in the room but it didn't work.
“But Jam wants to send you.”
“How could you leave Jeno to go back alone?”
“Donghyuck can still go back alone.”
“But Donghyuk's house is different from Jamni's house.”
“Our house is different from Ban Jam too.”
“Stop arguing, Injun...if he wants to go, just send him away.” Donghyuck cut off the annoyance of people arguing like a kindergartener.
“I can go back alone. Let's send Injun off," added the other person even though they wanted to go back together as Injun said. After all, a stubborn person will always be a stubborn person. The more determined Jaemin was, the harder it was to stop him.
“Then I'll see you at home.” Jaemin took Injun's hand and walked out, leaving only him and Donghyuk still not moving away.
“What did you talk to Injun about today that made you seem so stressed?”
“He knows I like Jaemin.”
“What should I do next?”
Donghyuck grabbed his friend and hugged him, resting his head on Jeno's shoulder and slowly letting the tears fall until they soaked the jacket of the person who was stroking his back to comfort him.
selfishness Jealousy makes him feel confused and hesitant. Should he wish or help make Injun's wishes come true? Should he confess? If he confesses, the answer is already clear: does the other person like someone now or should he steal Jaemin?
It's like the cracks of pain inside his heart are starting to widen every day. He wants to stop liking him if he's stuck, he can't, but he can't stand being like this. Just wait one day to hear Jaemin speak directly. That I've never felt more than a close friend, even just a little.
“I think Injun seems different these days. Whenever I invite him to go somewhere, he always has appointments and he rarely responds to messages. Or maybe he doesn't like me, what do you think?”
“No, Injun probably has really important business to do.”
"That's right... but it's nice to come home with you."
Jeno also felt good that throughout the week Jaemin came home with him, stopping for tteokbokki at a roadside shop or exchanging fun stories. It's like going back to the past before Jaemin met Injun.
“This Sunday is your birthday. Do you want a special gift?”
“Whatever you bought for me, I feel like it's all special.”
"Really? Haha. This Saturday, let's go cycling along the Han River together. Don't say no."
“You can go then--”
“Injun went too. But Donghyuck didn't come because he was busy.” Jaemin answered the question before he could even speak.
“As for Sunday I apologize in advance that I may not be able to attend your birthday party.” It must have been an important meeting with Injun.
“But I'll try to get there in time. Don't be sad.” Jaemin rubbed his head until his hair was unruly after seeing the birthday person's face dejected.
“I'll wait.”
Fast forward to Saturday and Jaemin and Jeno were already waiting at the park and had arranged to rent bicycles when Injoon arrived and complained about only renting two bikes even though there were three of them by Jaemin. He reasoned that he wanted Injun to sit on the back of him.
“We want to ride too. Or do we rent again--”
“No need to, if you want to ride, just switch with Jeno.” Jaemin said to stop him, but was afraid that the other person would ride all the way until it was Jeno who had to be in the back, so he interrupted. “There is a condition that you can ride all the way to the fountain.”
“That's all you got...then let's compete if we reach the fountain area first. We'll go back to riding, but if we win, we'll have to let you ride all the way to that little bridge.” The little man offered to bargain and then pointed out the location. If we rode non-stop, it was quite far. Of course, Jaemin didn't deny it.
"agree! Jeno hold on to your waist or you'll fall because I'm going to ride at full speed.”
As said, Jaemin focused on cycling as fast as his legs could, so victory came easily. Jeno hugged his waist and didn't let go until they decided to rest on a bench near the fountain.
“Would you like some water or snacks? I'll go buy it for you.”
“Do you want me to come with you?” Jeno offered himself, not wanting to be in a situation where he was alone with Injun.
“It's okay. Being with Injun is really close." Then he whispered softly. “In case I take you home next time.”
"Whatever Jaemin bought, we ate it all. There was someone to feed us!"
“Don't let me see that you secretly threw it away. If you abandon me, I won't raise you again.” Jaemin turned to threaten him before walking to a nearby convenience store.
“Today I'm in such a cruel mode,” Injun muttered to himself. Until they saw that Jeno was willing to sit down next to each other, they immediately started talking.
“With Jaemin, haven't you gotten anywhere yet?”
"He never thinks more than friends and even complains that you don't respond to messages."
“We tried to let you spend time with Jaemin but you couldn't make him like him...probably never confessed.” He said it again and it was right, he was happy to stand and look at Jae. The min next to me wants to own it but doesn't want to lose it later.
“My time for being a good person is over.”
“Do you have any idea why he won't go to your birthday party tomorrow?”
“Actually, I don't know, but my little brother suddenly said it.”
“What do you mean?”
“A very special birthday present from me...Tomorrow Jaemin will ask me to be his girlfriend.”
“...H-?”
“The reaction was less than expected. How do you feel in your heart right now, the pain? beard? Or are you holding a grudge against me?”
“You lost before the game even started, Jeno.”
talk to me.
Oh hey, this isn't like what we talked about.
There's only a little more left and it's almost over.
