"Cheolmin-hyung...thank you for bringing me to the festival today.", Seonghwa gave a big cheerful smile as he saw Cheolmin enter the bedroom, out from the shower.

"Of course! I promised you we'd go on a date right? It's my payback for the days I didn't get to go with you during the weekdays.", Cheolmin smiled back, ruffling Seonghwa's hair, the younger blushing intensely.

"I- I should go take a shower now.", Seonghwa abruptly said and ran towards the bathroom. 'Cute.', Cheolmin thought to himself.

- after a few minutes -

Seonghwa comes out of the shower, only with boxers and a huge shirt, making him look like he had nothing below. Cheolmin gives him a glance and pats the space beside him on his bed. Seonghwa's eyes widened as he knew what it meant...he was going to sleep beside his boyfriend.

"I can just sleep on the floor or in the living room.", Seonghwa nervously giggles as he stays standing by the bathroom door.

"Hwa, I'm not going to bite you or anything.", Cheolmin assured as he gave a soft look to Hwa. Seonghwa takes a big swallow and slowly walks towards the bed. After lying down and turning his back, Seonghwa takes out his phone, trying to distract himself from the tension.

"Why are you giving that phone more attention than me?", Cheolmin asked, him visibly sulking behind Seonghwa.

"No reason, just scrolling through my SNS.", Seonghwa lets out a faint chuckle. He then feels Cheolmin's body get closer and that's where his body tenses up again.

"Just relax Hwa, I just wanna feel your body near mine.", Cheolmin said in a low tone, his arms wrapping around Seonghwa's small waist.

"Y-you should stop, Cheolmin-hyung..we should go to sleep now.", Seonghwa tries to stop the growing sexual tension as he puts his phone down on the nightstand.

"Close your eyes, I just want to make you feel warm.", Cheolmin's hand then slips into Seonghwa's boxers, earning a gasp from the younger.

"Hyung we shouldn't do this..I'm sure you're tired.", Seonghwa's breath turns shaky as he panics from the touch. He then feels fingers wrapped around his member.

"Baby, I won't hurt you trust me...give in to me.", Cheolmin whispers to Seonghwa's ear as his hands gently strokes. Tears were threatening to fall from Seonghwa's eyes and his body shook. He was not ready for this, he didn't want to do it right now.

- present -

"Hyung, p-please...stop.", Seonghwa utters, his voice cracking from the stress in his tone.

It was 2 am, in the room the only person asleep was Seonghwa. Hongjoong was still focused on his music production with his earphones, but he hears a small muffled crying voice and that's where he removed a piece.

"I-it hurts, hyung...stop, please.", Seonghwa continued moaning and crying, it was visible he was having a nightmare.

Hongjoong immediately closed his laptop and goes to Seonghwa who was violently shaking and crying. He takes Seonghwa's hand and taps it, trying to wake the other, but it wasn't working so he taps the face.

"Seonghwa, wake up. It's just a dream. Seonghwa, please.", Hongjoong was in distress seeing Seonghwa like this. It wasn't the first time he had to wake up Seonghwa from a nightmare, but it was his first time seeing Hwa this frightened.

"Come on hwa, wake yourself up from the dream.", Hongjoong shook Seonghwa's body.

The other jolting up with fear, tears and sweat. Seonghwa looks at Joong with those eyes, showing how fragile his soul was at the moment. Hongjoong had forgotten about the pain he felt, right now he wanted to have this boy close to him, he wanted to comfort him.

"I'm sorry Joong...I'm sorry I hurt you.", Seonghwa's head falls onto Hongjoong's shoulders, his muffled sobs were heard around the room. Hongjoong embraced Seonghwa in his arms, caressing the back of the vulnerable boy in front of him.

"It's okay, don't apologize to me now. Just focus on yourself, calm down Hwa.", Hongjoong played with Seonghwa's hair to calm him down, knowing it worked after a few minutes when Seonghwa had a stable breathing.

"I'll get you some water...wait here.", Hongjoong said, slightly pushing Seonghwa's head so he can stand up to get water from the kitchen.

"Here, drink some water.", Hongjoong gives a cup to Hwa, half filled with water. As Seonghwa drank, Hongjoong didn't notice that he was staring the whole time until Seonghwa looked to him. His eyes swiftly looks down to avoid his embarrassment.

"I'm sorry you had to see me like that.", Seonghwa puts the cup down on the nightstand. Hongjoong scratched his nape and slowly looks at Seonghwa.

"Its fine...you also saw me in that state too.", Hongjoong said, recalling the time when he was bawling his eyes out because of his grandmother a soft giggle leaving his lips. Seonghwa heard the giggle and a smile forms on his own lips without him knowing.

"Again, I'm also sorry for what happened a few days ago.", Seonghwa broke the silence and Hongjoong's smile disappears.

"Look, um, you should probably go back to sleep its 2 am.", Hongjoong tried to prevent the talk from what he expected it to go. He grabs the cup on the nightstand and plans to walk out back to the kitchen but felt a hand wrap around his wrist.

"Please, I want to talk to you about it and explain.", Seonghwa said with a stern voice.

His eyes fixed on Hongjoong, he didn't want to waste another second of his time just for it to be wasted on ignoring each other. This was the perfect time for them to have a serious talk about what happened and for them to fix their relationship again. He wouldn't wait for how many more days, especially that it was almost near Hongjoong's birthday.

"Seonghwa, its 2 am, we can't talk things like this in the middle of the night.", Hongjoong answered, him trying to break free from Seonghwa's grip. As soon as he did, he walks again towards the door but was blocked by Seonghwa.

"I'm sorry Hongjoong. But I don't want to waste more of my time with you ignoring me like I don't fucking exist.", Seonghwa was desperate to have this talk, he didn't want anymore misunderstandings.

Hongjoong looked down, taking a deep breath and sighed, "Fine, we'll talk."
