"you look tired," Jaemin comments. Brushing away Jeno's bangs that fell over on his forehead from the sweat as he looks at the boy's dull eyes.

"I think it's a human thing." Jeno replied, stepping out of the entrance doors first that was opened by Jaemin and muttering a soft 'thanks' to the elder.

"How would you know? You're a demon, sweetheart." The raven haired boy said, draping an arm around Jeno's shoulders like what he'd been doing after they've gotten closer.

"I'm not using any of my powers, I think I'm overworking and the effects are just starting to kick in now." The younger mumbled as they walked together. "Being a normal human is tiring."

Jaemin scrunched his nose and comments, "humans are weirdly weak and confusing."

Jeno giggled and shook his head, "you don't know that feeling yet, Jaeminnie. You've been using your powers at times." He said, looking up at the elder.

Jaemin scoffs at his words, "not that much anymore like before. I've been trying to get used to this 'be a human' whole thing, and I think I may be having progress." He hums.

He meets Jeno's wondering eyes and smiles. "Oh?" The blue haired boy blurts out, "what's your motivation?"

Jaemin smiles wider at Jeno's dumbfounded question, "you." Straightforward and honest. He should get more rewards after this, he deserves it.

Jeno's cheeks turned pink and looks away feeling shy, "why?" He mumbled, biting back a smile of his own.

"I'll summarize it for you. And that's because you're... You," Jaemin shrugged. "You're just my type, sweetheart." He added, leaning in to Jeno's ear to whisper his words.

The blue haired boy squeaks and pulls away to look at him, "I can't tell if that's actually the reason or you're taking this opportunity to flirt." He snickered.

The elder rolled his eyes, "I'm taking it as both." Jeno said after he saw Jaemin's face and smiles. "It's okay, I find it sweet." He shrugged this time.

"You find everything about me sweet is what I'm assuming," Jaemin whispered teasingly, leaning in to Jeno's face and puckered his lips jokingly.

To his surprise, Jeno leans in as well, pecking his cheek where it was near to his lips making Jaemin almost trip on their way. "Jesus."

"I guess you can say, you're my type too Na Jaemin." Jeno whispered before looking back to his front with a grin.

"Well shit– should I take you on a date now?" Jaemin immediately asks, voice a bit loud making it more obvious he was actually really excited on the idea. "If– if you want."

"Of course," Jeno answered nonetheless and leans in to Jaemin's side. Not making eye contact, but the elder could tell that the boy was as excited as he was.

They arrived at Jeno's house first, as always, the owner opening the gates and beckoning Jaemin to come in so they could hangout for a while, as always.

Jaemin sometimes stays for dinner. Sometimes, when he's not worrying over his unfinished schoolwork unlike Jeno who finishes his own in the library as soon as possible.

But something was new for the both of them when Jeno unlocks his door to see–

"Oh look who it is! It's Na Jaemin, right?"

"Haechannie?" Jeno widened his eyes in pure confusion, "what are you doing here?" He scans the living room that was nothing but filled with some wrappers and such.

"Jeno! Hey!" The tanned male demon stands up and approaches his friend with a grin. "How are you?" Glancing a bit at Jaemin behind Jeno's shoulders.

The blue haired boy suddenly pushes him away, arms length and stretched out that made Haechan shook. "Did my dad sent you?" The boy's tone turned cold.

When Haechan only blinked at him, a bit perplexed by his friend's sudden action and was still trying to process things. Jeno glared.

"I swear on hell, if my dad sent you to look after me or whatever like I'm 5 and think he can get away with it after the first time and apologized–"

"Woah, calm down. Nobody sent me here," Haechan interrupts his friend. Jaemin raising a brow at them and taking a step towards Jeno.

When an arm wrapped around Jeno's hips, he visibly relaxes and sighs. "Good." He muttered before tilting his head, "wait– how and why are you here, then?"

"I summoned myself." Haechan deadpanned before chuckling at his joke when Jeno rolled his eyes. "Okay, I owe Jisung some blood for making me a portal here."

"When are you paying?"

Looking at Jaemin, Haechan goes, "we can start now."

"Oh, what the fuck–"

"No!" Jeno raised his voice and turns his body towards Jaemin before hugging the elder around his neck tightly. "Don't you fucking dare!" He, kid you not, snarled at his friend.

Both boys shook at Jeno's change of attitude, they were at the least, intimidated.

Jeno never raised his voice like that unless he was really upset. Take that time with the Satan situation.

And most of all, he never snarled, especially towards his friends. He's always been kind and never took some negative or scary actions when the three of them are teasing each other.

Instead of doing something, Haechan observes the way Jeno had his arms around Jaemin's neck, the latter had his own around Jeno's. The way his friend leans in closer to snuggle against Jaemin was what made it all clear.

"Okay, I was joking. Don't worry, I won't do anything to Jaemin." Haechan swore, his tone made it obvious and promising for his friend to believe him.

Jeno exhaled, nodding and turning to Jaemin with a pout. "Sorry."

The elder smiled and shook his head, "don't be." He replied and turning towards Haechan who continued to observe them like a protective brother.

"Well, I think I actually have to go. I have to finish my schoolworks and there's some chores I need to finish too." He excuses himself.

He tries his best to ignore Jeno's pout aimed towards him, "it was nice meeting you... Haechan." He awkwardly said, even though they didn't properly introduce each other, it seemed like they didn't need to.

The said demon nodded stiffly at him, "hmmm.... Likewise." Receiving a scowl from his friend, he puts his hands up in surrender.

Jeno grunts and looks back at Jaemin, "I'll see you tomorrow?" He asks, his arms still around the elder's neck.

Jaemin hums and caresses his sides, "we can talk about our plan for our date." Smiling when the blue haired boy kissed his cheek as a goodbye before he pulls away and waves at them.

"Wait what?!" Haechan exclaimed.

"Bye bye, Jaeminnie!"

"Bye sweetheart!"

"What the fuck?!"
