Come Dine with Me⌖ Maxx and Hana
Taehyun looked over at Hana, he saw Jazmin in her in so many ways, and that was both a problem and a blessing. A blessing because Taehyun could see Jaz in the girl and it reminded him of all the good times he’d had with the girl he’d vowed to protect. But a curse because she also reminded him of the huge hole in his heart that belonged to his family that he’d lost. The last time he’d seen his sister was after she’d passed on.
He’d called out for her, tried to summon her to him and she’d come, only for him to push her away. He needed to control his power and maybe he could see her again. Maybe he could stop the fainting, maybe he could do something to change everything. He smiled at Hana as he chopped up the carrots. “You should come to the rink sometime, I can teach you to skate.” He had always loved skating with others, helping them learn especially now he wasn’t able to do it.
He was wearing basketball shorts and his hoodie from Team Canada, from his Olympic games, both of them red and white with the maple leaf on, the jacket said Ice Hockey, Noh on the back and both at #82 on them. His knee was in a knee support and was visible. He didn’t mind her seeing the support on his knee. He had told her about his injury the hit he’d received on the ice which had ended his career and made his knee hurt sometimes.
“I can sort it out so it’s just us if you are worried about falling and someone skating into you, although I can assure that that had never happened.” He smiled as he continued with the food preparations. He was feeling a little out of it recently, he’d found out that his ex had been injured and it hurt to know he wasn’t there. But Taehyun had found out that love was in the end just a lie to one person. He’d lost his family and his career and his boyfriend had left because he was too much and the old Taehyun had gone.
But that didn’t stop him still caring a little for the man who’d spent so much time with him despite the amount of secrecy in their relationship. He’d not really disclosed anything about his ex to Hana. He hadn’t told her about anyone he had been with, although there weren’t many people he was romantic with, even in the past. He didn’t really know how to talk about love, because he guessed in a way he felt like her big brother who wanted the best for her and his views on love weren’t exactly the best for her.
“Please tell me why I got a visit~ I thought I was going to have to come find you.” He teased a little. “Are you in trouble?” big-brother mode activated. He trusted she could probably take care of herself but he didn’t want to take that risk.
