"what are you gonna do for christmas baby?" chan asked minho who was currently laying on the elder's chest, munching on some popcorn. the two boys had been watching "coco" on the tv, cuddling on the sofa under some warm fluffy blankets and soonie on top of them.

"hmm i don't know. actually i don't celebrate christmas but if you do, we can do something together? i mean if you want to, i don't wanna keep you away from your family if you were planning on visiting them..."

chan chuckled and caressed his boyfriend's head with his fingers delicately, brushing his digits through the boy's soft hair. "i'm not close with my family, remember that? of course i'd love to spend christmas with you! i do celebrate it but we don't have to celebrate it if you don't. we can just go somewhere and enjoy this time together without celebrating anything."

minho smiled and grabbed chan's other hand, placing it inside his own smaller ones. "i'd love to spend christmas with you too and i don't mind celebrating it since you do. i don't usually celebrate christmas because i'm not religious but i don't wanna keep you away from your own religion and its customs."

"i'm not really religious so i don't really mind about these stuff but i like christmas, that's why i celebrate it. i just really enjoy the atmosphere."

minho nodded and cuddled up closer to chan but the sudden sound of the bell ringing made him groan and untangle himself from his boyfriend's warm embrace.

"are you expecting anyone love?" chan questioned as minho got up from the sofa and just shrugged, annoyance occupying his face.

"trust me i have no idea who it is... just stay here. i'm gonna go open the door and see who it is and what they want. please pause the movie!" minho said and walked to the door, first looking at the peephole before opening it.

"oh hello. didn't expect you to come today." minho mumbled and stared at the floor beneath him awkwardly. it was his landlord and he was standing in front of the door with a weird expression minho couldn't really decipher on his face.

"hello minho. i just came to remind you that you owe me the loan for three months now. i don't know if you forgot to send it to me or something but i wanted to let you know because if i don't get paid soon i'll have to evict you."

minho's eyes widened in shock and his legs began wobbling. "w-what"

his landlord just shrugged. "you owe me 6,335,000₩ ($5,000) and you have until tomorrow evening to pay me."

minho felt his world collapsing around him. he didn't have that much money. he didn't even have half of it. how was he supposed to find such a large amount of money in one day?

nononono

"if you don't have the money, there's an alternative way you can pay me." his landlord suddenly smirked and started walking towards the boy with hungry eyes full of lust. minho stepped back and gulped, sweat forming on his forehead and hands.

this can't be happening...

"w-what are you doing?" he whispered weakly trying to back away from the older guy who kept approaching him.

"you don't have the money so i give you the opportunity to pay me in a different way. you've done this before anyways remember? you were working as a prostitute for that guy some years ago and slept with me twice. were you that drunk that you don't even remember me?"

minho wanted to scream. he wanted to yell at the top of his lungs and run away. run run run until that man disappears from his horizon. but he couldn't. he couldn't move. he couldn't even breathe. he felt like he suffocated. his vision was blurry and his mouth dry.
