He loves him, but he is definitely not in love with him.

“Oye, Key! Here’s your juice!”

Key smiles as he catches the can of pineapple juice Jonghyun passes him. It is the last can of pineapple juice they have. It is Jjong’s favourite as well. Nonetheless, he opens the can of apple juice for himself.

Key feels the familiar stab of bittersweet pain. Why couldn’t Jjong be in love with him? Would Key be happier if Jjong loved him less but was in love with him? Or does Jjong need to love him even more to be in love with him?
