XXXII- Tired voices

"Y/N..you gotta trust me on this! He does like you back, okay?"

"No he doesn't!" You hissed into the phone

"Doesn't what?" Chan's tired voice made you snap your head towards the door.

"Nothing. Im talking about Ahn's pet rat." You were quick to lie.

He knew you too well, understanding immediately that you were lying. Yet, He nodded, giving you time to wrap the conversation up.

"Oh my god! Is chris there?" Ahn whispered.

"Yup. I'll uh- i'll call you later?"

"Yikes okay. Good luck!"

You cut the call, wiping away tears to face your fate

"Chri-"

"Y/N.."

The two of you stopped.

"You go first." You said, giving him a defeated smile

"Uh- I planned to meet with JYP tomorrow, at 8. So be ready." He said, avoiding eye contact.

"Oh." You nodded slowly, "Yeah.. okay."

"What were you going to say?" He asked, fidgeting with the ring on his finger.

He was definitely trying to avoid you.

"Uhm." You shook your head, trying to make sense of this awkward situation. "We're good, right?"

He turned up to look at you, his expression was hard to read.

Before he could answer, a short, buff man strided to the door.

Changbin's expression faltered as he saw your tear stained face.

"Y/N.." His eyes turned to Chan, then back at you.

A silent understanding passed between the three of you, "Did you wanna sleep here?" Changbin asked

You were sitting in his room to avoid, well, human interaction.

"Oh- oh no. You can have your room." You chuckled, getting up.

"Its okay if you do. Honestly, I dont mind." He said.

"Nah. Its fine. Thank you, binnie." You gave him a small smile.

The two men watched as you slipped between them by the door. Trying your hardest to avoid touching Chan.

"What the fuck did you do?" Changbin narrowed his eyes at the taller man.

"Why do you think i did something?!"

"She doesn't go to bed before giving us a hug." Changbin side eyed Chan.

Chan sighed, "Look. I fucked up."

"Figures." Changbin scoffed

"Will you listen!" Chan said, shoving the older man into the room and following him in before closing the door behind them.

Chan rubbed his forehead in stress, "She told me she loved me."

Changbin's jaw dropped. "What?!"

Chan sucked in his breath. "This is- i don't even know."

"Bro your ears are red." Changbin pointed to Chan's ears, and reflexively, he covered them.

Chan couldn't keep his feelings at bay any longer, his entire face flushed.

"She told me she loved me!"

"So, why, instead of finding yall making out, did i find her crying?" Changbin deadpanned.

Chan sighed, "Because..i didn't tell her i loved her back-"

"What?!"

"Listen!" Chan glared, " You know being in a relationship is extremely hard for us."

"Okay? You talk as if thats stopped idols from dating."

"She's from Australia!"

"So are you???" Changbin gave him a look.

"You know what i mean. Long distance is hard!"

"If you loved her enough, you would make it work."

"Love her enough? I love her like my life depends on it."

Changbin smiled, "What are you waiting for then?"

Chan licked his lips, "What about JYP?"

Changbin's expression turned into a disgusted one. "Fuck JYP, why is he even a part of this conversation?"

"What if he doesn't approve of us dat-"

"Stop making excuses dude. What's really the problem?"

"Im scared." Chan sighed, "I just- she's so amazing im scared i'll ruin it. I already made her cry."

Changbin breathed out. "You better make things right. I swear to god if you hurt her-"

Chan put a hand on Changbin's shoulder.

"Alright. I'll tell her how i really feel."
