"So... why are we here?" Seungkwan asked, turning towards Hansol while the others were becoming smaller and smaller until they disappeared behind a tree.

"Well... let me explain before going in..." Hansol held Seungkwan's hands in his, then gazed at him with a subtle smile on his face. "I come here when I need some alone time, when I need to think or when I feel uncomfortable about a situation. This is my safe place, kinda like the lower part of the table for Seungcheol." The boy giggled. "But I want you to know this place, because you are the only person that I want to be by my side in the difficult times. So from now on, this is not only my safe place, but it's ours." The boy smiled and, without saying more, he led Seungkwan into the little space the bushes formed. It had a cat house too.

"There was a cat here, but she died because she was very old. She was fierce even though she couldn't even walk properly. Someone made this house for her, but she never used it. So I thought, that maybe putting a cover in here wasn't that bad."

Hansol put an hand into the little entrance and threw out a cover. He opened it and layed it on the little space of grass.

"This is so beautiful..." Seungkwan smiled.

"But not as much as you are." Hansol giggled as the older blushed.

"Shut up."

"No, you have to know how much of a wonderful person you are. You seem to forget sometimes, and I'm here as not to make you forget about it."

"You're such a sweetheart." Seungkwan smiled widely and gave a kiss on the boy's cheek. "And you are an amazing person too. I think I've never fallen for someone as fast as I did for you, and as hard as I did for you. I want you to know that you can always rely on me, for everything."

"Then, we'll be there for each other." Hansol smiled. "Now let's sit, there's something more."

The two sat next to each other.

"Look down there. It's about to be Summer, right? Well, you can still see some white flowers, and those are going to become fruits. Two years ago, as a freshman in college, I was pretty lonely, so I came here everyday and saw the whole journey, from the blossom until the fruits. It made me think a lot."

"But it's beautiful anyway, even though the flowers blossom and die, they are going to come back the next year." Seungkwan smiled widely and held the younger boy's hand, intertwining their fingers as he spoke.

"Love can be like that too. It can blossom and die so easily..."

"But it can always come back."

"And are we gonna come back?"

"Of course we are."
