   Summary

   “You doing this-- it doesn’t-- it doesn’t change anything, you know.” Jaemin’s grip tightens as he speaks.

   Jaehyun sighs, then smiles. The curl of his lips is tired, but at least his smile reaches his eyes. That’s how Jaemin knows it’s genuine, that he’s not smiling to be teasing or deceptive or mysterious.

   “Neither does this,” Jaehyun murmurs, pressing his thumb right over Jaemin’s hammering pulse. “And yet, here we are.”

   (Two times where Jaemin catches Jaehyun, and one time where he lets him go.)
