it has been a week ever since wooyoung and san last spoke. for both of them it felt like an eternity. that night san left to take a shower but when he returned wooyoung was gone. san's world seems to fall apart. he was clean from the moment he met wooyoung. san was desperate to be better for wooyoung. no one was ever there to be proud of san. no one was there to encourage san until he met wooyoung. but with the younger now gone, he was falling back into his bad habits.

wooyoung walked towards the abandoned ferris wheel that night, the one he went with san with. climbing up the latter, he sits in the same place he has with san. he has no place to go to anymore. he left his parents house to be with what he thought the person he was going to spend his whole life with.

the next morning he woke up still sitting in the same spot. the sun light hit his face despite it being winter. lucky it wasn't as cold yet he knew sooner or later he will freeze to death if he sleeps outside. taking the bus this time, he drives back to the city he somehow needs to find another place to stay.

the sun finally set and the moon started shining bright. it was full moon and wooyoung sat in front of the Han river looking at the reflecting lights on the water. the whole day the only thing coming into his mind was san.

"did he eat or is he getting high again?"

wooyoung was hoping the second wasn't true. even tho san hurt him, wooyoung can't stop caring for him. after all he still loves san when he wishes he never did. and again he lets his tears fall, wiping them again with his sweater paw which actually is san's sweater.

"wooyoung?" he hears an unfamiliar voice behind him. even tho wooyoung was curious he honestly didn't want to see anyone, if he knows them or not. he hears footsteps coming closer to him and eventually he noticed that person has seated themselves beside the crying boy.

"uhm hi, are you okay?"

wooyoung looks up, seeing a black haired boy. he has cute features but his voice was kind of deep. wooyoung remembers seeing the boy around school but they probably never talked to each other.

"hi." wooyoung answered while wiping his last tear of his face.

"this is probably a little awkward do you want me to leave?"

wooyoung indeed felt a little awkward sitting with a random boy but yet he didn't want to be alone.

"no, you can stay." the boy beside him smiled a little, staring to sit more comfortably.

"you're wooyoung right? we go to the same art class. my name is yeosang." wooyoung immediately felt a little more comfortable when yeosang started to speak.

"he seems really nice." wooyoung thought.

"you seem kinda hurt if you want to talk, i'll listen." yeosang said smiling at the other to make him at least feel a little better.

"isn't it a bit early to talk to a stranger about my problems." wooyoung said making the both of them chuckle.

"why am i a stranger? i told you we go to the same class." yeosang said acting as if he was offended which made wooyoung laugh.

"yeosang i only know your name."

"yet ur already being informal. its actually 'hyung' for you." wooyoung rolled his eyes which yeosang also noticed.

"you're even rolling your eyes. what a brat." it was silent for a minute or two but it was more peaceful.

"what brings you to the Han river at this hour." wooyoung asked which was suprising to himself since he never is the one to start a conversation.

"hm, i just felt like it." yeosang answered.

"you?" he turned his head to wooyoung.

"can't you somehow tell."

yeosang looks back at the river, thinking for a quick second.

"ah, you probably broke up with your boyfriend." wooyoung looks at yeosang curiously.

"how do you want to know its 'boyfriend'?"

yeosang starts to chuckle again. "you really think to one noticed you and choi san dating."

wooyoungs eyes widened. "did people really notice that san and i are dating?"

"so you guys still are?"

wooyoungs heart started to ache. "no."

he hears yeosang sigh. "come on wooyoung, if san was an ass better drop that bitch." both started to laugh. yeosang was really bringing a little happiness into wooyoungs day.

"i'm sorry if that was stupid." he still laughed.

"you're fine, it feels good to laugh." wooyoung answered which also made yeosang smile.

"does it hurt much?"

"it does, it really does." wooyoung looked on the ground.

"you know my offer is still open. we can talk anytime. i promise i'm not like most people in school who gossip later on."

wooyoung does feel like he could trust yeosang. but he was still hesitating since he really doesn't know much about him.

"it still seems a little to early to talk to my classmate about it."

"its fine, at least you didn't call my 'stranger' this time."

the both of them continued to sit in silence just looking at the city infront of them.

"its getting late, i should go home." wooyoung only nodded yet had a smile on his face.

"what about you?" wooyoung didn't know what to answer, he still has no place to go to.

"uh...i think i'll stay here." wooyoung avoided eye contact with the other. yeosang heard the hesitation in wooyoungs voice which was kind of suspicious.

"wooyoung?"

"yea?" he looks up at yeosang again.

"do you have a place to go to?" yeosang asked again which made wooyoung only panic more.

"uh sure i do." he lied but yeosang knew immediately.

"where?"

"i'll figure it out." he answered.

"yea sure." yeosang said pulling wooyoung by his wrist which made his eyes widen.

"w- wait im not going with a stranger."

"i told you to not call me stranger!" yeosang said again.

"yeosang wait!"

"we just got to know each other now you're taking me with you."

"i dont want you to die out here."

with that wooyoung and yeosang took off to yeosangs apartment. in was a 10 minute ride with the bus. he opened the door letting the younger in.

"you live alone?"

"yea my aunt is the landlord and my parents live away from seoul."

wooyoung looked around yeosangs apartment. it wasn't the biggest but it was perfect for one to two persons.

"you really dont mind me being over tonight."

"you dont have much friends dont you." wooyoung nodded to his question.

"well I dont either. you're alone, I'm alone. lets be alone together." yeosang said showing his cute smile once again, making wooyoung stay.
