Jinki looked up from his struggle with a uniformed policeman as the elevator door opened, eyes widening as he saw a familiar figure frowning down them from the doorway. "What is going on here?" Minho coldly asked the policeman. The policeman quickly snapped a salute and edged away from Jinki, who was holding his precious bag to his chest as he pressed his back to a corner of the elevator. "Sir, ah. I was just...well." "He was inviting me to lunch," Jinki simply said. Minho looked at Jinki from head to toe. "He was inviting you to lunch while dragging your coat off and tousling your hair?" Fearing for his life and more importantly, his career, the policeman muttered an apology and excused himself out of the elevator, not even sparing a glance back as he hurried down the hall. Minho called after him, but the policeman had already disappeared around a corner. Minho calmly entered the elevator and closed the door. "Did that guy hurt you?" "No, he was just really inviting me to lunch....aggressively," Jinki said as he collected himself and straightened his clothes. "I guess he got a bit overexcited." "Why do these things always happen to you?" Minho grumbled as he pressed the button for the 14th floor. Slinking back to his corner, Jinki offered Minho an embarrassed smile. "T-thank you," he said. "You always help me about them and I'm sorry for the bother..." "Always is an understatement," Minho said sternly, although a smile was teasing the corner of his lips. "Even in high school you get bullied. Even in university. And just last week you had some guy from CID feeling you up by the autoclave, seriously." Jinki scratched his head which is void of any understanding as to why he seemed to be very prone to being cornered by random people and being invited for lunch, dinner, tea, coffee, karaoke parties, marathon Mario Kart-ing, and one-night stands. "I'm sorry..." Minho only shook his head and reached up to brush something off Jinki's shoulder. "I always feel thankful that you manage to find me on time, though," the forensic expert continued. "I didn't think you'd be passing by the disinfecting room and stopping the CID guy from pushing his tarts on me. Like how I didn't expect you'd be there to stop those boys from high school from smashing my glasses." Jinki laughed. "But then again, I am surprised with everything. Like how we entered the same department and how you even became my superior." Jinki's superior only sighed and unconsciously placed a hand on the small of Jinki's back. "You're so vulnerable. I don't know what pheromones you're exuding that people can't stop touching you," he murmured. Jinki laughed. "How did you stop them, by the way? I never knew how you managed to save me back then?" Minho's face was cool and collected. "I offered him extreme sexual favors and they got scared." There was a long silence before Jinki spoke again. "...I mean those guys from high school, Minho." "Oh." Minho thought for a while as the elevator dinged and opened on their floor. "I offered them extreme sexual favors and they got scared." Before Jinki could react, Minho took his turn with questioning. "So, anything interesting going on?" "Um, Jonghyun said he wants to watch a movie." Jinki almost dropped his bag as he tried to keep up with Minho's steps. Damn, why were Minho's legs so long? Minho nodded in understanding. "Oh, good for him to take a break once in a while. What will he watch?" Jinki blinked. "He...wants to watch a movie with me." Minho stopped, then slowly turned around. His office was just a few steps from where they stood. "Why?" "B-because I'm his friend?" Jinki answered as Minho started walking again. Nodding absently, Minho unlocked his office door. "Well, he has other friends, I'm sure." "But..." "I hope he has fun watching his movie. Tell him to tell us if the movie's good so we can watch it, ok?" "Minho..." Minho opened the door to his office a bit wider, inviting Jinki in. "So, do you have plans for tonight? I'm sure you're quite free. Do you want to go to my flat?" "S-sure?" "Great!" Minho's smile lit up his own office and Jinki wondered why he felt something was off before when here they were happy and content with plans of dinner at a friend's home. "Wait a second. I just need to make a call." "It's fine. If it's urgent I can wait," Jinki offered as he sat down on the couch. Minho pressed his ear against his phone, giving Jinki another smile. "Don't worry, it'll be just a minute." Jinki heard the phone ring on the other side, then someone answered. "Kim Jonghyun, what is it?" Minho sighed a bit before speaking. "Try something again and I'll fucking fire your ass." Then he hung up. "What just happened? Is anything wrong?" Jinki asked, suddenly worried. It wasn't his first time seeing Minho like this, but it was the first time he called Jonghyun and said such. But Jinki's worries disappeared when Minho reached a hand to him. "Nothing. I'm just joking. Let's go?"
