Author POV

The next day went by pretty quickly. Taeil went to visit his family back to his hometown for the remaining days of their break. Mark went to the Dreamies to spend time with them and Yuta went to visit the 5th floor members. That leaves Jungwoo and Jaehyun at the dorm alone.

Both boys were going to watch a movie together like they decided yesterday. Jungwoo was waiting in their living room as Jaehyun went to go get their food they ordered downstairs.

"Okay Jungwoo, calm your shit down. This can't be that bad. Don't be too obvious, you can do this." Jungwoo uttered to himself.

Jungwoo was so into his thoughts that he got startled when he heard the door opened. He looked over to see Jaehyun coming in. He saw that he had a lot in his hand so Jungwoo stood up to help Jaehyun with the foods.

They both walk over the small table in front of the tv and put the foods down. Jungwoo let Jaehyun choose the movie and as he expected it was a horror movie. Jungwoo complained about it to the other boy but eventually let it go.

As the movie started, both boys started eating. Jungwoo basically finished everything as he was very hungry.

They were at the climax of the movie, Jungwoo sat closer to Jaehyun under the blanket since he got scared. Everytime there was a scary scene, Jungwoo would jump and hide under the blanket holding onto Jaehyun's arms.

The older ones would just laugh at Jungwoo's reaction. Jungwoo would slap him in the arms when he laugh and complained why he chose that movie knowing that Jungwoo is very scared of horror movies.

The movie went on, and a very scary scene went on that made Jungwoo jump onto Jaehyun's lap. Few seconds later, he realized the position they were in. Jungwoo was freaking out he looked up at Jaehyun to see his shock face. Both bodies tensed at the position they were in.

They were both staring at each others eyes for almost a minute now. Jungwoo soon broke off the eye contact and looked at Jaehyun's lips and back to his eyes. He slowly leaned in. Jaehyun notice what the other boy was doing. So he pushed him off his lap.

"What the hell woo?!, i have a girlfriend, what the hell do you think you're doing?" The older one snapped at him.

Jungwoo quickly realized what he did and apologized, "Hyung I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that" his voice crack as there were tears in his eyes. "Do you like me woo?" Jungwoo was completely speechless right now.

"I- hyung-" "tell me the truth" Jaehyun said while eyeing the other boy. Jungwoo took a lot of courage, he look up to meet the older ones gaze and confidently said "I like you, hyung"

"look woo, I'm sorry but I don't like you that way, I only see you as a younger brother. I have a girlfriend, I hope you understand that" with that Jaehyun walked away.

Jungwoo POV

"look woo, I'm sorry but I don't like you that way, I only see you as a younger brother. I have a girlfriend, I hope you understand that" he said sounded disappointed and walked away leaving me alone on the couch.

I started bawling my eyes out. I can't believe that just happened. He totally hates me now. I continued crying until I felt all the energy I had inside was drained out of me.

I took out my phone and dialed Doyoung-hyung. He answered after a few rings. "Hey woo, what's up?" He said. "I told him" my voice was hoarse from all the crying.

"Oh woo, do you want me to come over? I can come up if you want" he offered. "No hyung, I want to be alone right now. I just wanted to tell you" I was about to cry again but I held it in as I said that.

"Okay, let me know when you're ready to talk" he said in a worried tone. "Yes hyung, I will. Also hyung, is Yuta-hyung there?" I asked him.

"Yea, he's drunk btw so he might be sleeping over tonight, why? Do you want to talk to him?" He said. "No hyung, it's okay, can you just please tell him that I'll be sleeping in their bedroom for tonight?" I said that to him. "Sure woo, I will" "thank you. I got to go now hyung. Good night" "good night woo, rest well okay?" I hummed in response and hang up the phone.

Jaehyun POV

After I walked out of the living room, I went straight into our shared room. Shaking my head as I couldn't believe what just happened. I felt bad for yelling at him but he hid something important from me.

That's why he has been acting cold and distant lately.

My thoughts were interrupted when I got a call from my girlfriend.

Jungwoo POV

I look around to see the room messy. I stood up from the couch and started cleaning up the food from the table. I washed the dishes and folded the blankets that was on the couch.

I got cold so I decided to get a hoodie from my room. As I was about to go in, I heard Jaehyun-hyung talking to his girlfriend. I felt a sharp pang in my heart.

Instead of going inside, I just walked away and headed towards Yuta-hyung's room. I borrowed one of his hoodie since I was still cold. I laid down on his bed and put one of my hand on my forehead.

God Jungwoo why...you just had to do that ughh I was too tempted. Now he totally hates me. Ah I'm so embarrassed. Should I just avoid him or- ugh I don't know what to do anymore.

I started overthinking not realizing that tears are slowly falling down my face. After a while, my eyes were getting heavy, slowly drifting to sleep.
