Sticky notes and sweet breads ; Yeonbin

21

The door creaked open, but Soobin was unaware of the other presence as he quietly sat and cried, the sweet yet sad melody of Younha's "Lonely" reached his ears and shook his heart.

If it would have been some other time, he would have sat and grumbled about how criminally underrated Younha and her songs were. But now, he was grateful as her soft, tender, yet powerful voice embraced him in an invisible hug.

However, he found himself frowning when one of his earphones was taken away.

"Younha. Taste." Followed by little sniffles from a person Soobin had never expected to see again.

"Yeo-"

"Binnie... Binnie I'm sorry. I-I didn't know. I shouldn't have done this. I shouldn't have given up on you, on us, so easily. I should have fought for us longer. But... Things happened at home. And it made me so mad, everything around me made me so mad. I'm sorry Binnie, I'm sorry..." Yeonjun felt himself being pulled in a tight hug as he choked on his own words, a stream of tears blurring his vision and a big lump forming in his throat.

Both of them were crying in each other's arms. They missed this.

They missed each other beyond words.

"I'm so bad, I- *hic* I should be the one to comfortable you but I'm crying here-"

"Yeonjunnie, please don't ever say that. It's my fault too. I shouldn't have ignored you. I just- I just didn't want to burden you with my sadness... She... I loved her so much Jjunie, she meant so much to me. I knew this was bound to happen sooner or later, but... Everything, even the sweet bread you gave me everyday... Everything reminded me of her Jjunie. I'm trying my best to get over it. And I have. But sometimes it's becoming difficult..."

"Don't worry Binnie, this time, I won't leave you. I won't leave you even if you tell me too. I won't leave you even if you push me away and ignore me. I l- I adore you too much to leave you." Yeonjun said, pulling away and wiping away Soobin's tears with his sleeves.

"My thoughts were all over the place when I went home one day, only to learn that my parents are getting a divorce."

"Yeonjun I'm so sorry-"

"No... It's fine. We've been living alone all these years. Them being not together anymore doesn't really affect mine and Jinhee's bond. Father wanted to take her custody, but I had to fight against him. Eventually, he agreed to leave her with mum, and he moved away with his new girlfriend. Mum is living in a different mansion, somewhere far. Both of them will be sending money, but yeah, we'll have to be alone. It's better that way I guess. Jinhee was a mess, she didn't want to leave me and move away with dad. But yeah, things eventually fell into place", Yeonjun spoke, smiling softly at the boy who was gently rubbing off the year stains from his cheeks.

It was a soft and delicate moment, and they felt closer to each other than ever.

Things might be all over the place now, but at least, they had each other, and that's more than they could have ever asked for.

A/N : I started fangirling over Younha mid-story💀 I'm sorry I just love her so much 😭😭 Anyways yay they are back together!!
