reach out to you but I cannot have it

"Sunoo, you need to breathe and calm down."

Jungwon said while trying to pull away from Sunoo so he could breathe. Jay walked in holding a cup of water and some barley tea. Jungwon passed the cup of water to Sunoo, holding it for him as he took small sips. After a while, the boy could finally breathe but his tears weren't stopping.

"Remember the guys from the p-park the other day...?"

Jungwon nodded and quickly rubbed his back, understanding the situation. Jay sat next to Sunoo and fixed his hair.

"What happened the other day ? Were you guys chased ?"

"No, there were two men dressed in black who were giving looks at Sunoo. So we ran back to the apartment because I felt something was off too..."

Jungwon mumbled under his breath. Sunoo took the small towel from Jay's hands and wiped his face. Jungwon was jealous but this situation was exceptional. *ehem ehem*

"You can talk about it sunsun."

Jungwon said taking the cup away from Sunoo.

"I don't know... it's something about the way they look at me. I felt like I was threatened and in some sort of danger but... at the same time I felt like I would never be alone ever again. I just... can't get them out of my head !! it- i- won't go away !"

Sunoo started banging on his head and Jungwon tried to stop him. Jay took a deep breath and started thinking of a sentence that would not hurt the boy in any way.

"Hey... I know I won't be much of a help but you need to try and stay strong for us Sunoo. You can't let this thing get to you and eat you up. Others might feel you're attractive in a good way of course. How about you try to calm down and think things over so stay here for the day okay ? I really won't mind it."

Jungwon smiled as he felt moved by his boyfriend's words. He felt grateful that he was paired up with Jay. Sunoo was calming down but was still shaking. He took more sips of the hot tea as Jungwon patted his back.

"I'm s-sorry... I didn't mean to come here and make you guys worried..."

"Sunoo, we're glad that you came to us for help. We would always be here whenever you need us okay ?"

The boy nodded and smiled slightly as Jungwon giggled at the older's puffy face. It looked cute, not gonna lie. Jay got up and went to lock the front door once more and closed the curtains while Jungwon kept Sunoo company with small talks. Jay passed some pillows, blankets and thick comforters for them to sleep.

They moved the furniture and laid down. As soon as they laid down, Sunoo was already dozing off. Jungwon sat on the couch with Jay as they looked at the boy who was sleeping peacefully.

"I'm worried about him."

"Me too, Won. I don't know if it's just me but this is not the Sunoo I knew anymore... But not in a bad way of course. It's just that it hurts to see him like this right ?"

"Yeah... Thank you for your comforting words earlier. Never knew a tsundere like you can comfort people"

Jungwon giggled while Jay gave a small glare at his lover.

"Anyways, whoever those men we saw at the park the other day must have been crossing paths with Sunoo while we weren't by his side."

"Won, don't you think Sunoo's condition is quite bad ? I mean it's not safe for him to live alone anymore... "

"He doesn't want to go to the therapist for the past 2 weeks and he still wouldn't accept our offer of living with us. He thinks he's getting in the way of our relationship..."

"Ah... "

Jay nodded as he looked at Sunoo. The blonde was still his best friend and thanks to him, he got to meet Jungwon. Jungwon gave Jay a small goodnight kiss and slid down the couch, cuddling up with Sunoo. Jay laid down on the couch and closed his eyes, worried about his friend's condition and his lover.
