"Sooo.."
Kyung groaned as soon as Jaehyo began speaking.
"We saw the post." Taeil finished for him and Kyung was more than ready to sink into a hole and die.
"Is it still up?" He asked, remembering that Jiho had promised to take it down.
"Yup." Minhyuk answered and Kyung pursed his lips. That asshole. He cursed under his breath, wondering why life had to be such a bitch to him.
"It's not what it looks like." He mumbled, not having the energy to give a more indepth explanation.
"I was guessing you'd say that." Jaehyo answered, a sly snicker escaping his lips.
"Guys you need to help me. At this rate the rumors aren't ever going to stop." Kyung whined.
"I think you guys look cute together." Taeil mumbled, earning an unimpressed glare from Kyung.
"Whose side are you on anyways?"
A soft cough interrupted their squamble and all three boys turned to face Minhyuk, whose gaze was glued on his phone. The other, sensing the stares he was getting, looked up. All three looked away quickly, averting their eyes.
"What?" Minhyuk asked and none of them answered, returning to their food. It was unusual that the other was taking all of this so easily, considering how much he claimed to hate Jiho.
"Alright don't tell me." Minhyuk mumbled.
"Imma go use the washroom for a sec." He added, standing up from his spot before walking away. A moment of silence passed over the table in the other's abscence, before Jaehyo decided to speak.
"Something's up." He mumbled. Taeil nodded and Kyung pursed his lips.
"He's taking all this too easily..." Jaehyo continued.
"It's almost as if he doesn't hate Jiho anymore." Taeil mumbled. Kyung agreed and upon noticing the small smirk that fell on Jaehyo's face, he groaned.
"I know that look." He seethed and Jaehyo chuckled.
"Hell ya you do."
Taeil sighed.
"He's going to make us do something stupid." He whined and Kyung narrowed his eyes.
"What is it?"
Jaehyo shrugged.
"Nothing much. Minhyuk is keeping secrets from us, and what do good friends do with secrets?"
"Respect them?" Taeil answered. A pause ensues between them before all three bursted out laughing.
"Good one Taeil." Jaehyo joked.
"Okay but seriously, we need to find out why he's acting all chill about everything." He added. Upon noticing the excitement in the other's voice, Kyung's grew suspicious. Excited Jaehyo was bad news.
Oh well. It wasn't like he'd make them spy on Minhyuk or something.
................
"Why are we spying on him again?"
Jaehyo smirked, adjusting his sunglasses.
"It's the only way."
"Dude we look so sketchy." Taeil mumbled, pulling down his hood which Jaehyo had insisted he put on.
"Shut up and put your hood back on." Jaehyo hissed and Taeil whined.
Right after school had ended, Minhyuk had left for work and Jaehyo had dragged them both to his place and insisted they "suit up." By suiting up he'd meant putting on dark clothing with what he called "undercover accessories"-Taeil in a black hoodie, Kyung in snap back that covered his eyes and him in a fedora hat and sunglasses.
"This is stupid." Kyung hissed.
"He's not even in there." Taeil whined.
They were currently sitting outside of the coffee shop Minhyuk worked at, trying to look inconspicuous in their dark attire that definitely didn't make them stand out. The few people that were seated in the other tables around them sent them suspicious looks, but despite that Jaehyo had insisted they stayed. They'd been sitting there for 10 minutes now looking through the shop windows, yet the person at the counter had yet to switch with Minhyuk.
"He's probably on break or something." Jaehyo mumbled.
"He shouldn't be on break for another 20 minutes." Taeil stated, shrugging when the other two raise a brow at him?
"What? I know he's schedule. I'm actually a good friend."
Jaehyo scoffed, returning back to looking out the window.
"Ooh look!" He suddenly exclaimed, hitting Kyung's arm.
"Ow!"
"Shh, he just walked in!" Jaehyo hissed.
"Why would he just walk in? He was supposed to be here an hour ago. He's not even in uniform yet." Taeil interjected, squinting at the window. They watched as the person, who was definitely their friend, walked up to the counter.
"What the heck...is he getting something?" Kyung asked, suddenly getting interested as he watched his friend make an order.
"Correction, he's getting two things." Taeil mumbled, watching as the person on the counter got out two bags and picked out two muffins from the glass display, placing each one into a bag. He then proceeded to pull out two cups, turning to the coffee maker.
"Do you guys know what this means?" Jaehyo whispered from beside them.
"That we're great spies?" Taeil mumbled and Kyung rolled his eyes.
"This smells a lot like a date." Jaehyo added, watching as Minhyuk collected the bags, pulling out his phone as he waited for his drinks.
"This is insulting." Jaehyo continued.
"How come he get's a date before us?"He whined and Taeil scoffed.
"Technically Kyung got a da-"
"Don't you dare finish that sentence." Kyung quickly interrupted.
"Guys he's leaving." Jaehyo hissed. All three watched as Minhyuk collected his drinks as well, paying the cashier before making his way back out.
"We're following him aren't we?" Taeil mumbled. Jaehyo pushed up his sunglasses.
"You bet your ass we are." He answered, strutting away.
"What does that even mean?" Kyung asked, following anyways.
...............
"Oh my god." Taeil hissed
"We were right."
Jaehyo snickered.
"I knew the shithead was hiding something."
They were at a park now, having followed Minhyuk- from a distance- to the location. Minhyuk had walked over to a bench in which someone had been seated. The three had found a place to hide behind a bush, but they weren't close enough to hear the two, not to mention that the bench faced away from them so they couldn't see whoever it was either. Judging from the way the other was dressed and the short blonde hair, it was a guy- not like that was a surprise as Minhyuk had come out as bi forever ago.
"What if they're just friends? Did you consider that? " Kyung asked and both Jaehyo and Taeil turned to send him an incredulous look.
" Dude. He spent money to buy them food, you know how cheap he is. Are you like blind to love or something?" Taeil inquired and Jaehyo snickered.
"Would explain why he's yet to get into Jiho's pan-"
"Jaehyo!" Kyung exclaimed and the other two boys shushed him simultaneously.
"You'll get us caught dumbass." Jaehyo hissed.
"Oh. My. God." Taeil mumbled from beside them and they both turned in the direction the other was looking at. They gasped.
"Are they..?" Kyung trailed off, now gaping at what appeared to be the mystery date leaning up into his friend, muffins and drinks now forgotten on the bench as they locked lips.
"Still think they're just friends?" Jaehyo whispered from beside him.
Damn...
Minhyuk had a shit ton of explaining to do.
