Byounggon woke up to see Jinyoung standing by the closed blinds, perking up at the peculiar choice of place to stand.

"You okay?" he asked.

"He's been like that for a while," Yonghee answered back from behind Byounggon. "He's thinking."

"Oh!" Jinyoung turned suddenly. "You're awake. What about your partner in crime?"

Byounggon turned around to look at Seunghun, still soundly asleep. He was beautiful. "What are you waiting for?"

"Jaeseok thinks we should leave," Jinyoung said, sitting down in the corner chair. "He said leaving the country would be the best options, but we obviously can't do that. But it got me thinking." He swung his legs. "If you guys could go anywhere, where would you?"

"Probably..." Hyunsuk hummed. "I don't know. I like Seoul. But I'd like to visit Venice one day."

Yonghee nodded. "Maybe, like, Japan or something," he shrugged. "What about you, Jinyoung?"

Jinyoung looked up for a moment. "Home," he decided. "Byounggon?"

Home was nowhere near an option for Byounggon. He didn't want to go home because that's where his parents were. But... he missed the days before he came out, when his parents still loved him and treated him like their perfect child. And he wanted that.

"Home," he answered.

The bed shifted beside him, and Seunghun's bedhead poked up. "New York," he said. "But in actual terms, I think we should got to Paju," he voted out of nowhere. "It's close enough, but it's not exactly popular."

Jinyoung opened his mouth, then closed it, then opened it once again. "Yeah. Yeah, that's good, actually."

Byounggon didn't think too hard about Jinyoung's question after that.
