While the others ignored Minho's constant show off, it pissed Jonghyun off to no end. He wanted to find out what power Minho exactly had. Jonghyun wanted to get to the end of it, he somehow convinced Jinki who had been lazing off at the dorm that they all should visit a new amusement park that opened at the end of the city. The real reason was that he wanted to consult a professional about this problem. Soon they all were at the park, inside a rouge coloured tent with candles and incense lit. There was a crystal ball in front of them. As they waited for the person to come Kibum glared at Jonghyun who sheepishly smiled back at him.
"What?", Jonghyun turned to face Kibum while the others were preoccupied with checking the surroundings.
"Is this the professional help you were talking about? Tarot cards?", Kibum hissed. Jonghyun shrugged as an old lady with a huge embellished bun on her head came out. She started to speak in a mystical accent at first but later just asked them to pick cards one by one normally.
"What is this hyung? I don't need cards to tell how fabulous my future is going to be", Minho huffed.
"Oh no my child. My cards are pretty accurate and come true all of the time. Why don't you try picking out one, the consultation is free for the pretty boy here", she looked at Jinki who smiled and shifted uncomfortably before picking a card out and handing it to her.
The lady laughed out loud before turning the card to them. "He is really clumsy isn't he?", she looked at everyone before they took a double take at jinki and nodded frantically.
"You stumble and fumble , but you are actually very smart, might as well be a genius. You think a lot and actually have a lot more love inside you than you show. You will be great in whatever field you chose to be but will be doubtful of yourself. It is unnecessary because you are more amazing than you think you are.", she smiled as Kibum's hands reached the card deck slowly and he picked out one himself and she told him how much of a gypsy at heart he was and how he should be careful with his friends sometimes. Jonghyun smiled to himself and egged on Minho to pick the next card. Minho picked a card hastily and placed it on the table. Her eyes widened and jaw dropped as she looked back at Minho.
"T-This card!..No one has ever got it before. It's the most powerful one. Anything you want comes to you, you'll have the most golden future.", she exclaimed and Jonghyun's shoulder's dropped. That meant bearing more of Minho's nonsense.
They left the tent and went around looking at the newly built park which had so many new rides and booths. While Jinki was interested only in his hot dog, Taemin pointed out to a kissing booth.
"What's a kissing booth?", Jonghyun squinted his eyes because the sign was a little too far to read. When Kibum explained it to them, Minho made a joke on how people who kiss someone with a golden horoscope like him are lucky and that it would be hilarious for someone like him to pay to kiss some random person in a stall. Jonghyun did not know what got into him but he turned around and pulled Minho's collar and pressed a kiss onto his lips. Minho suddenly felt weak in the knees and almost lost balance tripping over.
"WHAT THE HELL JONGHYUN!", he yelled.
"See, anyone can kiss you", Jonghyun shrugged and walked off as Minho yelled a few profanities and kicked a garbage bin beside them hurting his toe.
The next few days were a nightmare for Minho. Starting with his toe at the amusement park he started hurting himself in the most trivial situations and nothing went well for him. He limped and looked daggers at Jonghyun every time they passed each other. He then got stuck in a neighbourhood he actually thought he knew pretty well before his phone died and he got chased by a mob of fan girls. He came back home dirty, hurt, tired and limped back into his room. He was about to burst out into tears when he saw a game ticket from their amusement park visit on the table beside his bed.
The next day, Minho was back at the same tent, the same lady came back but in a different coloured robe. She started to speak in the same weird accent but recognised him and stopped. Minho almost cried telling her what had happened. She tapped her index finger on her chin looking up.
"Hmm, this cannot happen, pick up another card", she looked at him as she shuffled the deck, her eyebrows furrowing. She frowned looking at the card Minho picked up.
"Something's not right" , she shuffled the cards and asked him to pick another one. She gasped at the card he picked.
"What happened?", Minho looked at her wide-eyed.
"That's what I want to know what happened from the time you left this place until now?", she raised an eyebrow.
"Everything's normal, except for my luck. I hurt my toe here that day and I haven't been speaking to a hyung since then, other than that nothing significant happened", he shook his head.
"And why did you fight with your hyung? Is he the one of the boys who came with you that day? Is it by chance the silver haired boy?"
"Yes! We kissed", Minho said embarrassed.
"Oh I see, did he ask you for it? ", the lady came forward to face Minho.
"I-no, I kinda provoked him", he bit his lip as a blush crept across his face.
"Kiss of pain-Kiss of gain", she said as she suddenly got up and walked around the tent. "Seems like he is very powerful, He took away all your power with that kiss."
"Oh gosh! What do I do now?", Minho cried out loud as the lady walked around him thinking deeply before she settled down.
"There is no cure written for this in any science but", she beckoned him to come closer, " Since you lost your power with a kiss, you have to get it back with another one, you have to kiss him again." Minho looked at her like she was crazy. He decided to get his power back,even if it meant that he had to kiss Jonghyun again.
When he reached the dorm, he saw Jonghyun take out a jug of milk and pour it into a bowl of cereal. Minho limped closer to him and stood supporting himself against the counter.
"Hyung", he started off before Jonghyun turned around "What?", and cut him off. Minho's cheeks flushed as he tried to ignore that Jonghyun was shirtless.
"I just wanted to ask you how your day was", he smiled as he struggled being nice to Jonghyun.
"Since when do we ask each other about our days?", Jonghyun leaned against the counter opposite Minho and slurped milk from his bowl.
"Huh?", Minho realized he was distracted by Jonghyun's shirtless body and how his eyes traced the corners of his chiselled body. He cleared his throat, "I- um, I kind of felt bad that I was being rude to you and realized I was wrong so"
Jonghyun raised his eyebrows and let out sarcastic laugh before patting Minho's shoulder on his way out.
The next few days Minho tried every trick in the book to get into the good pages of Kim Jonghyun. He made him breakfast, opened doors for him while Jonghyun eyed him suspiciously. He even complimented Jonghyun on how he was the best looking in their group and how he could be a visual, a composer and a vocalist all by himself. The others looked in shock when they heard Minho say these things. Jonghyun just gave him a look and left the place.
The next day Minho made an excuse and came back to the dorm earlier than the others, he slipped into Jonghyun's side of their room and began searching his cupboard for any clues or a diary or anything really. He dropped the vase on the table surprised when he heard Jonghyun's voice behind him.
"What are you doing? ", Jonghyun stood close with a stern expression on his face. Minho froze trying to think of words.
"What's wrong Minho? Why are you going through my stuff? You've also been acting very weird lately. Is there something you need to tell me?", Jonghyun spoke in a low raspy voice. Minho broke down crying.
"I-I am sorry hyung, I am always so selfish and act like a snob, I don't know why I act like that, Just because I have the power to get what I want and that's really the only thing I have, I am sorry I've just been an asshole though I really really love you and that's why I keep arguing and fooling around with you and I was really glad you kissed me but I lost my power and I've been trying to get--", Minho spoke non-stop before was cut off by Jonghyun's lips on his. Jonghyun wiped his tears away with his thumbs and pulled back looking into Minho's eyes.
" I really really love you too Minho", he whispered before he threw his arms around Minho's neck and kissed him again. Just like that Minho got his power back but he knew he wouldn't use it any more because all he ever wanted was in his arms right there.
