"You look so handsome," Ni-Ki said as he glanced at Sunghoon with a smile but in reality, he wanted to cry. He was looking at the man he loved but couldn't have.
He was getting married.
Sunghoon was getting married.
He wasn't getting married to him, he can't call him his anymore.
He couldn't handle that.
He didn't appear at their wedding. It was too much for him. He cried on that day a lot. He only saw him once in that suit of his. That was all.
"I can't believe that this is happening." He wiped his tears as he was deciding if he should suffer his whole life or should he take his own life knowing how much pain he would bring to his now ex-lover.
🎭
"I can't believe that this is happening," Ni-Ki said as he glanced at Sunghoon. "What are you talking about?" Sunghoon glanced at him confused. "This new choreography is hard." He sighed.
"I can help you if you want to," Sunghoon said as he glanced at the mirror in the practice room. They were supposed to rest, he even noticed Sunoo casually eating with Jake and Jungwon.
"How, hyung?" "It's not like I don't believe that you aren't an amazing teacher but-" he glanced at Sunghoon and continued. "Even Heeseung hyung couldn't help me, I don't know what is happening."
"That's probably because you couldn't sleep well." Sunghoon glanced back at him. "But, I noticed that you couldn't sleep as well." Ni-Ki shrugged. "I am older than you Ni-Ki, you're still growing." He said as he noticed Heeseung walking towards them.
"You improved." Heeseung suddenly said surprising Ni-Ki. He turned around and glanced at Heeseung. "Hyung you scared me." He nervously laughed. "Sorry about that." Heeseung shrugged. "I asked others-" Heeseung glanced at Sunghoon who crossed his arms at that. He grinned. "I mean- Sunghoon and I asked others if they can help you out as well and they said that they will."
Ni-Ki bit his lip at that. It's not like he didn't want their help but he just felt like he was their dance prodigy, their dancing machine- he was supposed to help them out not the other way around. "Sure, hyung." He smiled. "Thanks, hyung." He glanced at Heeseung.
"You should thank Sunghoon more." He smiled as he glanced at him. "He was the one to come up with that idea." Sunghoon glanced at him with his eyes wide open. Ni-Ki turned to look at Sunghoon. "Thanks, hyung." He smiled at him.

"Thank you for loving me." Everything went black. Ni-Ki was no longer alive, for Sunghoon the world lost its color. Before he at least knew that love of his life was around. That Ni-Ki is going to be happy with someone else.
Sunghoon had made a mistake. He felt tears fall on his cheeks. He lived the rest of his life unhappy with pain that even his wife- who he was supposed to be happy with couldn't fulfill. He died of old age, hoping he would be happy with Ni-Ki at least when he dies.

"Ni-Ki?" He glanced at Sunghoon. "Hyung?" He glanced back at him. "You lost your balance, are you okay now?" Jay asked worriedly. "I thought that you would faint..." Jake sighed as he walked toward them.
"What happened?" Jungwon asked as Sunghoon let go of him. "You can walk right?" He asked. Ni-Ki nodded. "No need to worry, I just dozed off that's it." He laughed nervously, hoping to make the tension disappear.
"Be careful next time." Heeseung sighed. "Yeah, Ni-Ki you should eat properly as well," Sunoo added. Ni-Ki glanced down. "I'll go to the bathroom if that's okay?"
"Sure," Jay said as he crossed his arms. "Do you need anyone to go with you?" Jake asked. He shook his head. "I'll go now, thanks hyung once again." He locked eyes with Sunghoon who only hummed in response.
🎭
He was now in a bathroom, completely alone. What is happening with me? What kind of illusions do I have? Am I that tired? He glanced at himself in the mirror. "What is wrong with me?"
He heard the door crack open. He glanced at the person who was now inside the bathroom. It was Jake. "Are you okay?" He glanced at him with concern all over his face. "When we get home, can I also watch that royale drama, hyung?" Jake nodded at that.
Maybe I just wanted to watch a k-drama.Yeah, that must be it. Ni-Ki knew that it was a stupid thought. He just wanted to have a reason for his so-called hallucinations, illusions, or whatever they were supposed to be. It wasn't the most logical one but it was a reason.
🎭
"Who's going to bring popcorn?" Jake suddenly asked. "I can bring it," Sunoo said as he stood up. "Thanks, Sunoo," Jake said with a smile on his face. "No, need to thank me, I always bring them anyway." He said as he started walking towards the kitchen.
"This kid." Jake sighed. Ni-Ki was sitting next to Jake who was sitting on the right side and next to Sunghoon who was sitting on the left side. Ni-Ki glanced at Jake who was scrolling on his phone. Out of boredom, he glanced at Sunghoon who was unbothered by ads that were played in front of him.
After what felt like ages, Sunoo was finally back. "Why are you all quiet?" He asked. "Because some of us are tired?" Sunghoon glanced at Sunoo. "I agree with Sunghoon," Jake added. "You ain't sleepy or tired?" Sunoo shook his head at that. "Some of us are going to sleep early," Sunoo said as he sat next to Sunghoon.
"Oh, great it started!?" Sunoo said full of excitement. Sunghoon glanced at him and chuckled while Jake tried to hide a smile but miserably failed.
Ni-Ki knew that his hyung was cute. Everyone would smile at him like that and think that he is cute even him. He glanced at the screen in front of him.
He didn't understand half of it since he didn't watch any of it before but it was kind of interesting to him. It was about a secret relationship between a princess and a prince from kingdoms who were in a war. A typical Romeo and Juliet thing. He sighed.
"How was it?" Sunoo asked expecting a positive answer. "Not bad," Ni-Ki said bluntly. "You don't seem to like it." Jake glanced at him. "It kind of came off like that." Ni-Ki chuckled. He heard Sunghoon laugh at what he said. "I think that he didn't find it interesting enough, I cathed him dozing off a few times." Sunoo glanced at him offended.
Jake started laughing along with Sunghoon while Ni-Ki smugly smiled at Sunoo as Sunoo frowned at him. "You have no taste." Sunoo said as he rolled his eyes at him.
