Parting || Jeongcheol

Chapter 14

After the moment of getting closer to the end of the world
Is gone, I found my light

----------------------

Ever since that confrontation, Jeonghan has been on the edge. He was glad to be able to express what he has been feeling for the longest time but at the same time, he was scared that they'll do something to him. He may have Jun and Minghao but he was still scared.

Oh- Jun and Minghao, don't get me started on them. They were Jeonghan's saving graces. They were the anchors that keep him grounded. They helped him so much, no amount of debt can pay back how much they have helped him.

What if- what if it was them that he loved? Would Jeonghan not be in this much pain? They were such a lovely couple and Jeonghan wouldn't dare try and break them up but... what if he was with them too? Would they love him more than he ever will?

What was Jeonghan thinking? Of course he couldn't join their relationship... They're happy together. They're contented. They don't need anyone else, especially a broken boy. But, Jeonghan couldn't help but think that maybe- maybe he could fit in.

They always made Jeonghan feel like he was needed, that he belonged. He never felt like he was left out even when they spoke Chinese or went on dates. Sometimes.. sometimes, Jeonghan feels like he takes them for granted.

But he is thankful. He could see how much they are willing to do for him. They don't look forced or annoyed when Jeonghan suddenly breaks down and needs someone to help him back up. They don't need anyone telling them to help him- they do it on their own.

Even when Jeonghan tries to tell them that he was fine, they know that he's lying and would never leave his side. Because of that, Jeonghan realized- they were all he needed. He realized that maybe- maybe they'll be the ones to heal his broken self.
