tell me, you hate me,

.

"Chan don't!" Felix screamed as Chan threw a blow Y had taken knocked down to the floor with Chan on top of them.

Chan didn't listen to Felix, it was almost as if he couldn't hear Felix occupied by his beliefs and emotions entirely.

Hyunjin was holding onto Seungmin trying to stop him and explain everything but it was hard with tears in his eyes, his voice cracking multiple times as he tried not to sob.

"Seungmin please don't, don't, if you love me don't," Hyunjin pleaded Seungmin halted to a stop in confusion.

"Why are you protecting this sick person so much? They fooled us with this Sunny dude and proceeded to take all three of you away. We should end this for good!" Seungmin argued back.

"No, Seungmin please don't, it's not what it appears, it's not them."

"So there's another person behind all of this?" Seungmin asked, confused.

"Kinda but that person is not at fault please don't hurt them!" Seungmin sighed. He stopped trying to fight out of Hyunjin's grip, holding him close.

"Okay, okay then," Seungmin said, rubbing circles onto Hyunjin's back.

"Just,"

"Don't cry," he whispered, holding Hyunjin who broke in his arms. He had missed the latter being away from him was like hell for his soul. He acted like he didn't care but he missed him more than anything.

"I," Hyunjin wept.

"I just really missed you,"

Felix hugged Chan from behind in order to stop him.

"Chan, Chan, Chan stop, please just stop," Felix cried the tears leaving his eyes like rain from the clouds, repetitively.

"Felix, don't cry for me," Y whispered.

"Don't waste those tears on me," Y tried to console Felix and Chan halted to a stop, fist hanging in mid-air. His brows furrowed in confusion.

"Who are you?" Chan asked his chest rumbling with anger but he had calmed down.

Y smiled sadly.

"That's the part I'm not so sure of," Y whispered looking at the grey sky.

"I was supposed to be the villain,"

"But, suddenly these three made me like I wasn't,"

"You can kill me if you'd like to, maybe that'll solve everything." Y grinned but something in their eyes reminded Chan of himself. It was the sorrow and sadness swirling around those orbs. Those sad orbs reminded Can of his childhood his father abandoning him, his grandparents slowly following along, Manso leaving him, and then there was Felix. Felix was still here and holding onto him for dear life.

"Shut up," Chan mumbled frustrated with their words.

"Don't you dare say that! none of this was your fault, don't make it look that way," Felix whispered, holding Y's hand and something in Chan clicked.

"Why not? You hate me right Chan? It's only appropriate if the hero kills the villain, just kill me and end this, end this book, end this drama. I hurt you didn't I?" Y thought ending themselves would be the only solution. Chan looked at them and finally saw the pain on that grinning face.

"You..." He whispered, dropping his fist.

"You're not,"

Y looked at him in surprise, his expression asking; 'what the hell do you mean?'

"I don't hate you," Chan's hands are no longer a fist.

"You just caused me so much pain, but with all your empty threats and letters, these past two years for the first time, you made me feel as if..."

"As if I wasn't lonely, I can't hate you. I can never hate you,"

"Now that just sounds weird and depressing," Y frowned.

Chan got off of Y.

"Why be kind to me, when I have shown you no mercy?" Y asked not getting it.

"I have hurt you, and your friends I have tormented you much more than anything, so why are you?" Y gestured to the eight men who stared at the Y. They understood now that they had a closer look. They understood how broken Y was, even when everybody could overlook it, they didn't. 

"The world will torment us, but as long as we have those we need, we won't give up, they will always be there for us. I choose not to give up," Chan smiled, remembering Manso and his kind words. Glancing at Y for a bit before looking at the members, a smile set upon his face.

"At least not that easily. I can be that person for you, the person who helps you go on, and wipes your tears away." Chan smiled, extending his arm out.

"From now on you're Stay. Our Stay."

"There's no reason to be afraid anymore, we're here now," Hyunjin grinned.

Stay could swear the whole world could hear their heartbeat. Tears filled in Stay's eyes.

"You have no idea how long I've waited to hear those words," Stay grinned, fresh hot tears slipping past their cheeks as they stared at the eight men that just completely changed their life. Placing their hand in Chan's, ugly sobs came out of their mouth before they could stop it.

"How the fuck are you so nice?" Stay asked, trying to keep it together. Because they couldn't, they couldn't accept this. 

Chan shrugged.

"I'm sorry but, I can't," Stay denied taking steps back.

"You can't do what?" Seungmin asked.

"I can't be your stay," Stay denied it again.

"Why not?" Changbin asked.

"I'm cursed, I will only harm you or die. Don't you see? I can do anything my life is supposed to be miserable," Stay looked up at the eight boys wiping their wet cheeks away embarrassed.

"But there's a second way to break the curse," Hyunjin said suddenly.

"What is it?" Chan asked urgently.

"Someone needs to..." Stay closed their eyes, cringing immensely.

"Feel love for me,"
