My Son, Beomhyun

Chapter 97

Beomhyun let's out a sigh as he leaned against the pillow of the hospital bed.

It's been around three days since he was rescued and was brought to the hospital. And currently Beomhyun was alone in his ward, although his parents did stay overnight but they left to get somethings done and settled.

His appa-Gyu was forced to head back to Beeojegug for a meeting due to the incident. But promised to visit tonight.

Taehyun on the other hand went to buy some fruits with Yeonjun, they probably won't be back for an hour and a half. Since it was a weekday and with the rush hour, it'll surely create traffic.

He wasn't even allowed to have visitors because Beomhyun wasn't allowed to be around a bunch of people yet. Which sucked because Kyle has been visiting him and the poor boy could only look at Beomhyun through the window with puppy-eyes that had tears threatening to spill.

And boy did Beomhyun's heart clenched as he remembered the sad look Kyle had.

Then Beomhyun found himself craning his neck to the window that was beside him. Which gave the boy a good view of the hospital's garden, he also noticed a tree near his window and a Soojun sitting on a branch.

Wait...

Beomhyun snapped his head to the tree outside his window and without a doubt. He saw non-other than Choi Soojun sitting on a tree branch with a hand holding firmly on one of the upper branches for balance. Along with a cheeky smile on his face.

"Soojun-hyung?!" the young boy exclaims.

The cheeky smile on Soojun's lips only widened as Beomhyun said his name, and saluted playfully at the brunette.

"Hello, Byunnie!" Soojun greeted him.

"Why are you sitting on a branch you idiot you'll fall!" Beomhyun exclaims once more, ignoring Soojun's comment. He got out of bed and opened the window to his room.

Soojun pouted, "Well I can't really go through the door so why not do it the romantic way?"

The younger boy scoffs. "Yeah right, one romantic wrong move from you on that tree and you go bye-bye to the ground!" Beomhyun states, emphasizing the romantic as he gave the boy a threatening look.

"Why are you even on a branch in the first place?!"

"Because I wanted to see you. I can't go inside, remember? Only family members are allowed in your ward, duh!" the older male rolled his eyes as if it was the most obvious answer ever.

The young brunette blinks, before sighing. Beomhyun looks from left to right before shifting his gaze back to Soojun.

"Alright Choi, come in."

"W-Wait, really?" Soojun stammered, blinking at the young boy.

Beomhyun nodded in confirmation.

"But... I'm not a family member tho?" Soojun says, voice confused.

The younger boy scoffed, "Well it's either I let you stay there like some stupid idiotic bird or you get in the ward before someone sees you, hm?"

"Oh?" Soojun smirked teasingly, and the young Kang looked so down at him.

"On second thought, stay there and be one with nature. I'll just close the window-"

"WAIT BYUN I WAS JOKING!" Soojun exclaims in a panic when Beomhyun was about to close the window.

With a blank face, Beomhyun nods. "Good, now jump before I change my mind," he saids as he steps aside.

"Alright, alright, sheesh." Soojun shifts his position on the tree. And jumped towards Beomhyun's window, effortlessly getting inside the ward.

"Y'know, I still don't understand how tall you are and yet you managed to get in the window with no mishaps." Beomhyun commented, sitting on his bed.

Soojun sits next to Beomhyun, and shrugs. "Beats me, maybe because I'm one of the best?" he says with a cocky smile.

Beomhyun rolled his eyes and scoffs playfully. "So arrogant."

The raven haired male only chuckled, "I didn't lie though."

Then silence reigned over the two boys.

"How's your wound by the way?" Beomhyun asked, pertaining to the older boy's stab on the chest.

"Hm? Oh it's healing perfectly don't worry," Soojun assures him with a smile, but soon it faded once he saw the bandages peeking from Beomhyun's hospital shirt.

"How's your cuts?" Soojun asked, voice dropping to an octave.

"They still hurt in some parts, but their healing smoothly so I guess it's a good sign." Beomhyun shrugs, giving the older male an assuring smile.

Soojun hums, his bangs were down as they covered his eyes. He gave Beomhyun a soft yet sad gaze.

The brunette on the other hand scoffed. "Now now don't give me those watery puppy eyes of yours hyung."

Soojun blinked and tilted his head. "Huh?"

"Don't tell me you're planning on apologizing because you couldn't save me that day?" Beomhyun asked.

The ravenette was taken aback.

'Welp, he got me there.' Soojun thought.

"I mean..." Soojun scratched the back of his head. "It was my fault so..."

"And it was my fault as well, y'know." Beomhyun says. "So don't blame yourself, don't apologize as well."

Soojun only stared at him before smiling. "Well, if that's what the prince wants then who am I to disobey?" he says as he ruffled Beomhyun's soft hair.

"You're seriously still on that prince agenda of yours?" Beomhyun utters in disbelief, swatting Soojun's hand away from his hair.

Soojun smirks. "You know it."

The young Kang gave him a dead look. "I'm starting to regret on letting you in Choi."

"You say that as if you aren't a Choi to begin with," Soojun scoffs.

"Because I'm not?" Beomhyun says.

"Not yet," Soojun utters. "Once uncle Gyu and uncle Taehyun get married then you'll officially become a Choi."

"You sound as if it's that easy." Beomhyun laughs. "You know changing a surname requires a lot of paperwork and processes to go through, right?"

"It does?" Soojun asks.

"Yup," Beomhyun nods. "It'll take awhile since you need to change your birth certificate and basically everything."

"Huh, that's a long process indeed," Soojun mutters before averting his gaze to the younger.

"Then why don't you marry me." the ravenette said.

Beomhyun gave him a surprising look. "What?!"

"I mean, you did say changing your surname would take a long process. And wouldn't marriage speed that up?" Soojun explains in an innocent manner.

"I-I mean that's true..." Beomhyun stammers. "B-But why would I marry you?! Plus I'm not planning on marrying anyone!"

"Hmm, you don't know that Byunnie." Soojun says before heading towards the window.

"Besides, you never know, maybe in the future you and I will end up together?" he teases the young boy who laughs.

"Ha! In your dreams!" Beomhyun says.

"Well then, I'll keep dreaming," the ravenette took Beomhyun's hand and kissed his knuckles. And before he leaves, Soojun flashes him with a smile and says.

"Farewell, my prince."
