“if we are twins my parents have some explaining to do, like where the heck did they find me!” he’s partially joking, mostly about the finding him part, but he does want to ask his parents about his past, where or who is he actually from. and why was it always so hidden. “twins, that is kind of crazy don’t you think? like how would we have gotten separated..?”
“well we are alike in a lot of ways, like for instance, we look exactly alike. and our personalities seem to be alike.” he giggles, he finds himself amusing. but they did seem to be very much similar, personality and looks. it was a little trippy for jeongin but he did find it fascinating. “we are officially now friends. oh my god channie hyung is going to faint when he sees you! he can barely handle one of me, but two of me….”

" same here how come my parents didn’t tell that i had twin earlier. " he huffed in a joking manner crossing his arms in front of his chest before falling into a fit of giggles he truly wished that all of this was true so that he wouldn’t feel so lonely whenever he was without his group mates he could finally call someone his friend not least on the fact that both of them really did seem to lookalike from their faces down to their personalities it would be almost be considered wrong to not say that these two were somehow related to each other let alone pass off as actual twins.
" that is true it would be a crime if we’re not twins or at least somehow related to each other. " he added nodding his head in order to affirm the other male’s words he was just so glad to finally have someone else as his friends and hopefully in the process of this his group mates could get some rest his chaotic shenanigans as he’d probably spend all of his free time with his twin. " cool it’s great to finally have another idol friend. you could say the same time for my group’s leader seokjoo hyung i can’t wait. "

HYUN-TAE -not so hypothetically- gave your number to one of the new guys? HYUN-TAE becaaaaausee i - i dunno. i guess they were cute but lowkey intimidating HYUN-TAE and wanted to hang out and i just panicked and gave them your number HYUN-TAE are u mad at me?

MINJUN : you know you could have just given him like a fake number or something. MINJUN : lmao no i’m not mad at you hyung i was just wondering whyyyyy me ??

“how dare my parents keep that i have a twin from me” jeongin giggles out, he felt excitement at the thought of him having another him. he already seemed to like minjun, the other was easy to get along with. usually jeongin was extremely awkward. he hoped that they are twins, he really was praying. it would be so cool. and maybe them being twins meant they get to hang out more, especially out of work.
“it has to be true! look at us! we look alike, and we get along so well, it would be devastating if we were actually not related!” he knew he was dramatic. and this means there will be two of him to mess with his hyungs, and that enough was the best thing. two chaotic jeongins would cause his hyungs to go bald from stress. “oh my god! i can’t wait to make channie hyung faint with this news! he’s going to pass out and i hope i can record it!”

" you can say that again. " he said rolling his eyes before falling into a fit of giggles he just felt so happy to make friends and be with someone else other than his group mates not like he hated them or anything , but he clearly wanted to expand his circle of friends beyond people outside of his group and company. so he was glad that both jeongin and he had meet today and at first sure he didn’t believe the rumors of the both of them looking alike let alone being possible twin , but upon meeting the other male clearly they were the later with how much they looked and acted like one another. but in the event that the both of them weren’t twins it was still nice to meet the other and they truly just really looked alike as he was beyond happy to have another friend and cause even more chaos among the other’s hyungs later on.
" yeah i know right ?? i mean we’re both so similar to one another. " he added nodding his head along to the other’s words affirming them he really did hope that what jeongin was saying was the truth that they were really related even twins they were just so alike another that no one could really deny that fact anymore. he was beyond excited to cause even mischief among the other’s group mates fully aware that they’d clearly all freak out once they see the both of them together and he knew that the same thing would probably happened with his group mates as well thinking that his leader would probably expire on the spot once he saw them together not wanting to deal with not one minjun , but two of them with the exact same level of chaos within them. " yeah i can’t wait for that either i mean if you’ve got nothing to do right now why not we surprise our hyungs then ?? "

𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 the best u could have done!! +10 proud 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 i don’t know. it’s for people i care about 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 🙄 no comment. it was a stressful week 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 i know and i’m glad you’re full grown… 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 and it shows, i care that’s why it matters 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 you’re important to me, that’s all i think

minjun : yay do i get a prize for that ?? minjun : you can say that again it’s been one hell of a week. minjun : aw don’t tell me you’re going to cry hyung ?? minjun : omg i’m just kidding pls don’t kill me. minjun : i love and care for you hyung a lot. minjun : seriously i’ve always been grateful for you hyung ty.

minjun was at a loss for words for once in his life he’d never expected for someone he looked up to as an older brother to confess their feelings like that. he didn’t know how things developed into what they were at this very moment as the both of them were just out on a rare day off with a couple of mutual friends on a night out he was never really a huge drinker only doing so with close friends so at this point he was half expecting for something crazy to happened around them , but this completely came out of left field for him. the thought of the other male liking him in that way never really crossed his mind as in the past they haven’t voiced any inkling of that towards him not even as a joke so he was beyond confused on what exactly had caused the other male to suddenly confess their feelings to him could it be the alcohol or did they have this feeling towards him hidden deep inside of them which only up until now had bubbled up to the surface. " i-i’m sorry hyung i knew i should have stopped them from egging you on from drinking. " he said swallowing down hard on his saliva clearing his throat before continuing. " no need to apologize here hyung it’s my fault really. "

————— this was not something he really wanted to do, but it was something he really needed to do. he had been tiptoeing around it the whole week, but now that they have a little time to actually see them seems more appropriate. ‘ i’m sorry about what i said the other day ‘ 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 said first, avoiding eye contact at all costs. ‘ i shouldn’t have dinked at all, and i shouldn’t have let it speak my mind so easily ‘. ‘ the last thing i want is make anything between us uncomfortable ‘ it was the best he could do to start the conversation. ft. @kissespoisoned

jeongin giggles, he doesn’t even know if they are twins but he is already praying they are. “i’m going to ask them! because i have to know if we are actually twins! what if we are! oh my god, i need to know.” he almost squeals out, but he doesn’t. he was so thankful the fans had pointed out they look alike because if not, he would not have ever met the other, or so he is convinced.
sure jeongin had brothers, but his older brother and younger brother weren’t his age. and growing up he and his older brother fought so often, it wasn’t the best he admits, so the thought of having a brother actually his age and could relate to him better, it seemed perfect. no age gaps. and the thought of just messing with his hyungs, his members, perfect. it wasn’t a secret jeongin was playful and loved to mess with them constantly, he wasn’t maknae on top for no reason. “do you wanna surprise your hyungs first! we can totally do that and then we can give my hyungies heartattacks after!”

he couldn’t help but feel excited about the whole thing not only was there a possibly that the other could be his sibling even twin something that he’d been dreaming off ever since he could remember as he always longed to have another sibling let alone a twin especially since he grew up as an only child. on the other hand the chance to scare the living daylight of his groupmates especially his leader with the fact that there was not one but two of him now to cause even more chaos in their lives at this point. " yes please i should totally ask mine too maybe we really are twins then. " he said with nodding his head affirming their words he was pretty much bouncing off of the walls he just couldn’t contain his excitement about the whole and really looked forward to finding out from their parents to see if they were really twins or not that were just separated at birth for whatever reason.
having grown up as an only child he had always left really lonely even when he was with his friends as he’d heard so many great things for having another siblings weither they be older or younger than him he didn’t really mind. so when he first became a trainee at his current company and meet his future groupmates both his hyungs and noonas he always thought of them as his siblings even if they weren’t blood related , but with the prospect of the other male being his actual sibling or even twin he couldn’t help but feel beyond happy on finally being able to fulfill one of his lifelong dreams besides obviously debuting that is. " yes of course we totally can especially since most of them are just waiting around. " he added with a mischievous grin formed onto his lips he always liked causing chaos especially at the expense of his hyungs and take every opportunity given to him to do so and he was for sure thinking that once they both see them together that they’d all just die from the shock with having to deal with not one but two minjuns instead with twice the chaos added to the group motioning over to the other to follow him to their waiting room in order to give his hyungs the shock of their lives.

————— he was mentally slapping himself. how could he - and of all the people he knew - decide to crush on someone who looked up to him like minjun did ?! and why on earth did he felt the need to just say it out loud that day ?! stupid, 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲. stupid, 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲. still, he didn’t seem to be heartbroken or saddened about the fact that those feelings were out there to be non-reciprocated, but he rather felt embarrassed. - i would personally cut him some slack because it had been a while since he had felt this way last, the racing heart, and it was not an easy feeling for him to give in to. his agenda had him surrounded with people he was always working with, so the little time he got to be off that mindset and with someone that also allowed him to feel a bit more like himself hit him differently, apparently. probably, or for sure, in a way it shouldn’t have. ‘ it will go away, so you don’t have to worry about it ‘ he told minjun, not really sure if that was completely true, but at least it was his intention, to turn it off. it was what he needed to do and what would be best for minjun anyway. he wanted the best for minjun always. ‘ i don’t think you need to apologize to me, but um - the other way around. i’m sorry i put you through it ‘ he said after a while, looking down because he felt a bit too vulnerable. ‘ and i - all i want is for us to go past it, if - if that’s okay with you ‘

minjun still couldn’t believe that all of this was real as to him everything felt it was some cruel dream on his part as he never thought that in a million years that someone like hyuntae would confess to him like this just so out of the blue. but don’t get me wrong here it wasn’t like he didn’t reciprocate his feelings back to the other male it was just came out of left field and it wasn’t like the other had given a hint in the past of his hidden feelings towards him and if in the event that the other did minjun must have not caught on to it at the time as he never saw the older in kind of light up until this very moment he really did look up to the other male admiring them for not only their skill but their hardwork & perseverance and the fact that hyuntae always had his back no matter what and he had thought that he loved him like an older brother especially given how he grew up as an only child. a permanent frown plastered onto his lips he couldn’t help but feel guilty for letting this sort of thing happened to the older male as from his perspective he should have stopped their mutual friends from pretty much forcing the other to continue drinking past his limits when he knew all too well that hyuntae was a rather light weight when it came to drinking , but for some reason he continued for things to escalate further and further innocently thinking they both had rather stressful weeks up until the very moment that those words had come out of their mouth therefore bringing up all these feelings of guilt and resentment inside both of them. " i-i’m so sorry hyung. " he almost couldn’t say the words not wanting to hurt the older male anymore at this point only wanting to make the other feel better about the whole thing to not make them feel like he had regretted saying those words to him he almost glad that he did because now he was able to finally say how he truly feels about the other without ruining their friendship even more than it already was this point. " i-i really am sorry hyung but i think i feel the same way about you ..... "

jeongin was excited to have a brother, maybe a brother, his age. his older brother was ‘too old’ and his younger, well he was still in school. so in a way there are gaps in there relationships due to age, though he does get along with them well. “i wonder what happened. like if we are twins why do we have different parents?” he was sure his parents could never get rid of one twin and keep the other. why would they?
jeongin does consider his members his older brother, and even though he doesn’t have much of a gap with seungmin, he still was the only 01 liner in his group, and the 00 line in his group all had a special bond, it was noticeable, so maybe he and minjun could also have that special bond, that bond where they could look at each other and have a silent conversation. “okay! lead the way, minjun!”

minjun was beyond excited at this point that there was a high chance that the both of them were in fact related to one another and for whatever reason their parents put him up for adoption and kept jeongin instead which honestly filled his curiosity even more than it had before. as to why exactly had that happened wanting to know what the exact reason why he was given away when certainly there was still a possibly to keep the both of them instead of separating them at birth could it for financial reasons or even more sinisterly their parents didn’t like minjun for whatever reason , but then again in hindsight that could be furthermost from the truth here especially since they had the exact same type of personality and were alike one another almost to a t. those questions however could wait though with them best being answered by their parents in due time and he only wanted to concentrate to the best news he could have gotten his entire life really that he finally had a brother not only that that he had a twin that was alike him in more than one way. " who knows really i’m pretty sure they’ll answer that eventually. "
at this point in time he couldn’t wait what could await the both of them and how their friendship would develop into especially with how much mischief the both of them would cause among their respective groups. and even he had formed very close bonds with his group members after years of training with each other at their company prior to debut he could just tell that things were going to be different with jeongin as the both of them would share a bond that he could have with no one else in this world so he was again beyond excited for the future to come to light letting out a soft chuckle saluting the other male before leading the way to his group’s waiting room anticipating the chaos they were about to cause among his hyunggies. " follow me captain. "

————— whether it was love or infatuation, 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 found either of those concepts / feelings to be extremely hard to understand fully. he wasn’t all that sure if he could elaborate a lot about the reasons why, but those words had always scared him. it had something to do with what his mum had to go through after love fell apart for her, and how his life had changed back then. in a way, love brought a lot of trauma, but it also brought a lot of luck and healing. he himself had been in a relationship once or twice before, but they were not as important nor as solid to mention them as pillar experiences. indeed, they had been hanging more on the disaster side of things. - when it came to his crush on minjun, he’d like to say that he didn’t see it coming all that clear either. yes, minjun was pretty and had, like 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 had told him, grown into a man. maybe it was the witnessing of that progression what had caught him so off guard because pretty wasn’t the only thing minjun had going for himself and 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 was well aware of all of those other things that surrounded it. when he realized the way his heart raced after he saw him one day, he knew he was pretty much f a l l i n g . it didn’t happen over night, he was sure, but the realization kind of did. there had been a fair amount of testing his heart out and a lot of denial as well. yet, when he realized he was helpless against his emotions, he decided not to make it obvious, to give it time to fade away on its own. before the feeling could ever die down, alcohol and confessions happened. stupid, 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲. he had repeated over and over inside his head, but seeing that there was nothing he could humanly do to erase what was uttered, he was now asking for forgiveness and promising the impossible. he was about to reassure minjun that he really didn’t have to apologize anymore, but the shaking of his head suddenly stopped when he uttered that very last bit of information that changed e v e r y t h i n g . ‘ w-what? ‘ he uttered like a fool, eyes widening. ‘ you like me too l-like something more than a … hyung? ‘ it was a stupid question considering he was fully capable of grasping the situation, but it was all his brain and his jumpstarted heart could do for him. ‘ i take it back ‘ he blurted out. ‘ i take back what i’ve said, i don’t want to let it go if you feel the same way ‘ he sounded, for a moment, like a train wreck.

minjun was still so confused about the whole thing even if on the outside he didn’t look like it with the same cheesy grin he always had on graced his features he would have never expected that one of his very close friends would confess to him like this not least of all hyuntae the one hyung that he’d always looked up to and admired for all of the the assurance and guidance he gave to him when they first meet each other all those years ago. especially given how young he was at the time he had pretty much latched onto the older male whenever there was something troubling him so it sure was a news to him to hear that hyuntae had a crush on him and don’t get me wrong here it wasn’t like he was opposed to it especially given how pretty he thought the other male was and everything now and then the intrusive thoughts of making the other his and kiss him on the lips , but obviously he never even dreamed on acting upon those thoughts in order not to ruin their close friendship and make things awkward between the both of them especially since he wasn’t aware if the older male had even felt the same way as he did. that was until now however with alcohol passing through their bodies the sudden confession came out into the open for once and minjun would be lying to himself if he said that he wasn’t a little glad that they’d gone out drinking that fateful night. for now though he wanted to take things as slowly as he possibly could not wanting to rush into things with other letting out a soft chuckle upon hearing their words causing his cheeks to heat up ever so slightly " yeah i’ve been feeling this way about you hyung for a while now if i can call you that now. " he said covering his face with both of his hands wanting to test the waters between the both of them anticipating on how the older would react to his words.

————— i don’t think 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 was actually grasping what was going on then and here. if anything, he was just trying to keep himself cantered by looking intently into minjun’s eyes. expectant. ‘ i um- i think so, i mean i don’t know ‘ he stuttered a little. yet, putting korean stratified language system behind, all 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 could really do was catch the way he was smiling and the way he’ll cover his face, which in return had 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 smiling softly, tenderly and to the point he let out an involuntary chuckle. ‘ stop, you’re making me nervous ‘ he said, hand reaching softly to take one of minjun’s own. before he could really think it through, he intertwined their fingers together and squeezed his hand. 𝗵𝘆𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗲 reached and touched his cheek with the back of his free hand and kept it there for a moment to help it cool down. ‘ you’re so cute, you make my heart go all over the place ‘ he admitted in a soft voice, almost as if he wanted to keep it a secret between the two. maybe this was not the best place to talk about it, or to show his affection either, but he was still going to reassure minjun that he made him feel these things, even if he had to be careful from other trainees / idols going into the dance room. ‘ i really don’t know what to do ‘ he said honestly. ‘ i never thought you would feel it back so i - i’d - i’d like to get closer. don’t doubt it. i just don’t know how would that make you feel ‘ he was stalling because not only was it nerve wracking to think about it, but also he didn’t want their first approach to feel so conditioned by their surroundings.

minjun was for sure that this moment wasn’t real there could be no way that it was for someone like hyuntae a hyung that he’d been admiring every since the day that they first meet each other had confessed to him like that not only that fact that he was finally voicing his mutual attraction to the older male. and despite the fact that all of this pretty much came out of nowhere he still welcomed all of the happy feelings he currently feeling inside of him he couldn’t be anymore happier at this point really and the whole thing that he was afraid of was that all of this would be revealed to be a cruel prank on him set up by not only hyuntae , but also the other idols / trainees at the company even if deep down he was fully aware that the other male would never do something as cruel to him as for now they’d never given any sort signal to him that that was the fact. but still that thought still lingered at the back of his mind that what if all of this was lies so for now he remained rather skeptical of the whole thing and would prefer to take things between them slowly as he clearly didn’t want rush into the things the older male even if all of what had already transpired between the both of them made him the happiest person in the world and judging by how much he blushing at the moment the whole thing was only outwardly showing just how happy he truly was. " what ?? no hyung you’re the one whose making me so nervous here. " he said letting out a nervous chuckle as his cheeks began to flush even more his chest began to beat out of his chest so loud he could swear that the older male could hear it especially with how closer the both of them were at this point. if it wasn’t evident at how flustered he currently in the moment he didn’t want this moment to end anytime soon and he only wanted to prolong this happy occasion wanting to stay in this state of euphoria for as long as he possibly could at this , but with the threat the anyone could barge into the room they were currently it was evident to the both of them that they needed to go somewhere more private so they could fully enjoy this moment amongst each other. " y-yes i’d love that too hyung but i think we need to go somewhere more private before someone comes in. " he added only wanting to prolong everything that was going on between the both of them and yes despite the fact that all of it felt so brand new and nerve wreaking he still wanted to be with hyuntae.
