Why do I have no control over me when it comes to you

I know for sure that you will eventually find me, no matter where I go

Cloud nine is my address since the day I became yours

I am near you, I am what you feel, I am in your memories too.

And you have become a part of  every breath I take.

Who are you to me?

What is our relationship?

Why do you create this bond?

Why do I have no control over me when it comes to you?

(English translations of a song I love. The song does exist but by a different singer and  in a different language)

Han heard Minho humming the song. Not once did they have an eye contact throughout the song. For some reasons, Han had a strong urge to see those chocolate orbs of the younger but the younger had his head lowered throughout the song. It was only when the song ended, the younger lifted his head to meet Han's eyes. A wave of unexplainable emotions passed through both of their hearts.

The eye contact was broken by a knock on the door.

"Come on boys! Movie time" Mrs. Lee yelled from outside.

"C-coming mom!"

After the movie, the family had their dinner and went to their bed. On the request of Mrs. Lee, Han was also staying for the night with them.

"You can have the bed. I'd take the couch." Minho offered

"Is your bed that small?"

"Neither is my bed small nor am I. That's why you should have the bed"

"W-what the fuckk" Han's eyes widen in shock hearing Minho's questionable statement. The tip of his ears bloomed red.

" Wait- no- i- i didn't mean that. Fuck! I mean we both are adults so it would be not comfortable for both of us to adjust on the same bed." Minho's cheeks were also dusted pink .

"Ahh- it's o-okay. We can manage. I generally curl myself so it shouldn't be an issue. Even if there is, we would figure it out later. I'd hate making you sleep on the couch in your own house."

"But-"

"No but and if you still argue then I'd be the one sleeping on couch."

"Wha- Fineeee geez."

" Good boy. I'm going to shower. You can get pillows and blankets until then."

-

"You do realize that people can feel you stare, right?" Han said with his eyes closed and a small smile on his face

"I wasn't staring at you." Minho said composing himself after getting embarrassed from getting caught.

"Let's say what you are saying is the truth."

"Hyung, what do you think about the song?" Minho said after a long silence. Han was almost in his dreamland.

"Huh!!!" Han said opening his eyes to look at Minho.

" Ummm- i mean as a musician, what would be your remarks on the song? Do you see any potential at all in me as a musician? I know I said I love dancing and being a dancer was what i was aiming for from the start and at some level, I am already living my dream but I don't wanna limit myself just to dance. During the previous album, I kept wondering what if we made the music we are performing. I know it's not gonna happen anytime soon but at least once, i wanna perform on a song I made .... So, I have started working on it. I know I am not good enough yet but I really wanna-" Minho at some point started blabbering because of nervousness.

"Min! Calm down! Take a deep breath." Han said while holding Minho's left hand. Minho did as he was told. Though he was still nervous, he was calmer than before. Han turned to his side and cupped Minho's face.

"Look! I am not gonna say that it was perfect just to motivate you. There were mistakes here and there. There were things which could be better. However, if you are seriously interested in music, you would work hard to improve. Potential you ask, you definitely have it considering this was your first song. If you want to try music, I'll always be there to support you provided you work for it." Han said smiling.

"Hyung, then can you be my m-mentor"

"Huh! No i - I'd help you find better ones. I am not as capable as you think. Hehe"

"Why- no I want you to teach me the basics. You're so good at it. Come on hyung! I've heard your song"

"One and that too was made ages ago. "

"And it was so good. I don't even understand why wouldn't you upload it."

"WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT ME NOW?"

"BECAUSE YOU WOULDN'T HELP ME"

" I NEVER REFUSED. I SAID I'LL GET YOU BETTER ONES."

" NO. I WANT YOU"

A silence engulfed in the room for a minute before Han broke it.

" Fine I'll tell you what I know and then we'll get better mentors for you."

"Okay" Minho said while biting his lips to  avoid grinning.
