He's Back |Park Sunghoon|

4

"Park Sunghoon! Stay still!" Jake whisper-yelled as he tried to open the door with the tall man completely laying all his weight on his shoulders.

He finally got to open the door and Sunghoon giggled softly.

"I'm home!" He yelled and Jake shushed him, making him giggle even more.

Jake struggled to bring Sunghoon to the bedroom, but made it, opening the door as quietly as possible.

Angelica was laying on the bed, fast asleep.

Sunghoon smiled sheepishly at the sight of her as Jake tried to take his shoes off, accidentally dropping one.

"Shhh the baby's sleeping." Sunghoon slurred and Jake shushed him again.

After his shoes were off, Sunghoon made his way to the bed, surprisingly quiet.

But he couldn't seem to control his body and he accidentally plopped down on the bed a little too hard.

Angelica stirred but she didn't wake up, to which Jake shook his head.

There could be an earthquake and she still wouldn't wake up.

"I'm leaving." Jake whispered to Sunghoon, who only waved enthusiastically.

Jake rolled his eyes and closed the door after him.

Sunghoon turned on his side, his gaze on Angelica who laid face down with her hands under the pillow.

He scooted closer to her and placed an arm around her, laying his head on her back.

"I know you're awake." He slurred as he closed his eyes.

Angelica's eyes opened as she stared into the dark room.

"You smell disgusting."

"Are you mad at me?" He questioned and she softly shook her head.

"Why would I be?" She asked as she grabbed his hand that was around her and pulled it towards her face to place a kiss on it, softly intertwining their fingers.

"Because I didn't watch the movie with you."

Angelica let out a small laugh.

"You would have fallen asleep anyway." She giggled and Sunghoon chuckled softly.

"That's true."

As he held her tighter and felt her warmth, he felt tears come to his eyes again.

"I love you. I'm not letting anybody hurt you." He said weakly as he placed a soft kiss on her shoulder.

Angelica felt his tears on her back as he snuggled closer to her.

"Are you sure you don't need to talk about it?" She asked softly as she was starting to get worried.

She didn't get an answer as he was already fast asleep.

Angelica sat at the counter-height table eating porridge as she recalled what Sunghoon had said the night before.

Why was he so sad?

He was a happy drunk. He was the type to be super affectionate and would constantly laugh at things like his own breathing.

Just because of his mannerisms the night before, she knew something was really wrong.

She heard footsteps coming down the hallway and she looked over to see a slumped and hungover Sunghoon.

"How do you feel Buba?" She questioned as he walked towards the couch and sat there, just blankly staring into space.

"I made you some porridge." She said as she pointed at the seat in front of her, where his meal was covered.
