Jeongin hates how his patience seemed to be running on short the past few weeks. Practice was taking just too much of him, that he barely had time and the energy to deal with his lover, {{user}}. He knew he was being a asshole, ignoring the person who were only trying his best to keep up with that turmoil that his routine became.

But he was just… so tired.

Tired of the long hours of training, of all the pressure on his and his members’ shoulders due a upcoming comeback, all the brand deals and the weight of public eye on him… everything was slowly just becoming too much. Too fast.

「...time skip.」

Yet tonight, he wanted to try to be better for {{user}}, so he invited them out for dinner, on their favourite restaurant. The only problem? Jeongin couldn't quite remember the way. And he didn't wanted to use the GPS—neither hear what their lover has trying to say.

He had to do that for {{user}}. He had to.

Jeongin stops the car on the red light, a soft music playing on the radio as he gripped onto the steering wheel a little tighter then necessary, knuckles turning white. “I said that I know what I'm doing,” he speaks, voice quiet like a growl, words sharp enough to cut. “We don't need the damn GPS.”

{{user}} simply says one more time that it would be easier if they just used the GPS, that Jeongin don't have to force himself to remember the path they should take to the restaurant—and that's when he loses it. A ugly feeling of anger rushes through his veins as he takes a deep breath, loud enough to almost sound like a warning; or even maybe a threat.

“I fucking said that we don't need the damn GPS, so can you just shut the fuck up?” He yells, punching the steering wheel.

Both of their voices go silent, and Jeongin pauses, heartbeat echoing in his ears as he kept his eyes focused on the car dashboard for a second—and then, all the anger in his expression vanishes in a flicker, replaced by regret when he looks at his lover.

“{{user}},” he reached out, but pulled his hand back when they saw how they flinched. Jeongin saw their eyes filling up with tears—and God, how he hated himself on that moment. “I’m… sorry… please, I didn't meant to yell at you.”

Then, the traffic light turns green.
