A Train At First Sight

Chapter 34

After that fiasco, Sunghoon and Sunoo arrived at his house tacitly understanding that silence is what they need throughout the ride. But after, Sunghoon's mind is all about Sunoo.

There was a linger of confusion and trouble in his heart. He believes he cried not because he missed Xavier but he had deeper reasons.

As soon as they went inside the house, Xavier joyfully approached Sunoo. The latter decided to hug Xavier and ruffles his hair. "Xavi, I missed you." Sunoo said.

Xavi somehow understands Sunoo's distress and proceeds to lick his face. Sunghoon grabs Sunoo's hands and lets him sit in the couch. "What happened?" Sunghoon asked.

"Huh?" Sunoo replied.

"Why did you cry earlier?" Sunghoon asked.

"Nothing, I just missed Xavi." Sunoo replied.

"You're not being truthful. You're hiding something. I know it." Sunghoon confronted him.

"Huh?" Sunoo asked anxiously.

"Just tell me the truth okay. I won't ever judge you." Sunghoon said in comforting manner while cupping his face.

"Is it my fault that I don't like to see them together? cause if that's the case then I'm okay with being the villain." Sunoo replied.

"You mean, Jay and Mickey?" Sunghoon asked.

"I like him. It hurts me every second knowing I could never be that person." Sunoo replied.

"I figured." Sunghoon said.

"What?" Sunoo asked.

"I mean, I knew the signs. But I still wasn't expecting it. I'm at lost." Sunghoon replied.

"Why? It's not really important. I just want to stay out of the lane and move on." Sunoo said.

"Yeah, cause I like you so much and it hurts me that you're hurting for another guy who has someone already." Sunghoon replied.

"Sunghoon, I'm not joking. This isn't just some type of drama that you want to get into." Sunoo said and was about to leave.

Sunghoon grabs him and pulls him towards into his lap. "I'm sorry Sunoo. This might came off as shocking but I really do like you. In fact, I like you way before." Sunghoon replied.

"Why? Why me?" Sunoo asked.

"Then why Jay? why not me?" Sunoo asked back.

"But why are you telling me this now when I'm a wreck. You're just adding fuel to the fire. Now I have to think about it." Sunoo replied.

"I don't care if you feel wreck. I'll be here for you. And you don't have to think about it. Just accept my feelings because I won't force you to like me. Your happiness will always be my first priority." Sunghoon said and kissed his cheeks.

"I don't know what to say. I'm out of words right now Sunghoon. I really treasure you as my friend and knowing you have feelings for me is a new concept that I have to fathom. But thank you for being honest." Sunoo replied as he hugged him in return.

"How about we have dinner tomorrow. Just the two of us? Let us forger all the bad things today and just live in the moment. You in?" Sunghoon asked him out.

"I would love that." Sunoo replied.

On the other hand, as they continued to get drunk, Jay still wore a sour expression. He badly wanna feel drunk to get the bitter taste off what happened earlier.

He badly wanna pull Sunoo into him and just leave with him. He can't really understand how Sunghoon and Sunoo could be together as friends. If he were Sunoo's boyfriend, he wouldn't let someone named Sunghoon even close to him.
