    Summary

    Minho smiled his conspirator’s smile, utterly devastating.“If niceness was the only qualifier then I’d be good mate potential. Isn’t that funny?”

    Jisung looked away. “So hilarious, hyung.”

    Summary

    “He bet that we couldn’t get through the night as roommates without having sex. He said he's going to listen to check.” Minho chuckled as he said it aloud, realizing how ridiculous this whole thing really was.

    Jisung laughed lightly. The soft sound was music to Minho’s ears. “Well, that's stupid.”

    “I know!” Minho exclaimed. “He thinks we were like sex-fiends or whatever, like we’d die without touching each other for one night.”

    Changbin bets that Minho and Jisung can’t go a night in the same room without fucking, they prove him wrong, sort of.

    Summary

    Jisung shrugs, all too casual. “Just for fun. You know, for the bit.”

    “You want us to pretend to be a couple…in therapy. Just for fun.”

    “Yeah!” Jisung nods enthusiastically. "Just until the therapist figures it out.”

    Minho gives him a long, slow look that suggests he is currently measuring him for a straitjacket. “So. Two sessions, max.”

    It’s supposed to be a joke– two best friends and roommates walk into a therapist’s office, and pretend they’re a couple until the therapist figures it out.

    But old feelings die harder than old habits, and when everything they’ve been avoiding for five years finally catches up, Minho and Jisung start to realize they may not be pretending as much as they'd like to believe.

    or: Minho and Jisung are not a couple– or so they think.

    Summary

    It’s been a long time since Minho has met anyone new. Since he’s had to get to know someone. He doesn’t remember how to make small talk—but, honestly, considering Jisung was teasing him about getting stroked off by Seungmin earlier, haven’t they blown right past small talk? Minho opens his mouth to ask Jisung something, but before whatever inane question he still hasn’t decided on can start to form, Jisung beats him to it: “If you could go anywhere tonight, where would you go?”

    “I thought you were just taking me to your place.”

    “I’m a total fucking stranger, man. I could be taking you anywhere. To kill you.

    “You’re not a stranger,” Minho points out placidly, shrugging. “I know your middle name.”

    P206: On the eve of his wedding, Minho is enchanted by cater-waiter Jisung—and all the possibilities he represents for a different (better?) life.

    Summary

    “What’s… happening,” mumbles Hyunjin. “Why’s there food for, like. Ten?”

    “It’s for them.” Felix nods at Jisung and Minho, seated at the little table beside their stash of takeout.

    Hyunjin is silent. Then, “Oh Christ, another one of their stupid contests.”

    Best friends Jisung and Minho have always had a knack for turning everything into a competition—who can shower faster, who can eat more, who can sooner find a meaningless hookup at a party. It’s when they overstep (or, in Jisung’s case, trip over) the boundary between being friends and more that Jisung finds he cares far less about losing their little games than he does about losing Minho.
