"I'll take you home," Beomgyu announced when the time came for Yeonjun to leave. After all, it was still during the week and they both had to return to work the next day, yet Beomgyu wasn't quite ready to let the brown-haired man go. And as soon as they had put on their shoes as well, the two set off.

The walk wasn't too far, but they had enough time to talk a bit more. "Are you actually still recording a new anime?" asked Yeonjun with interest.

"Yes, but this time it's not a story by Eunwoo. It's called 'The World Ends With You' and this time I'm doing the Korean dubbing voice of one of the side characters," he told the florist. "It's actually quite enjoyable to dub in your native language."

"I can imagine," Yeonjun said with an approving nod. "I'm excited to see it. I finished watching World Trigger years ago. More - ... out of frustration," Yeonjun laughed hoarsely, rubbing his stomach. "But it was good."

Beomgyu lowered his eyes, but didn't reply.

"Because I missed your voice," Yeonjun then admitted, looking at the 27-year-old's thoughtful profile.

The younger stopped and grabbed Yeonjun's wrist. "You don't have to miss me anymore," he said softly, "I'm here now, after all."

"Thank goodness," Yeonjun smiled, letting his fingers slip into his ex-boyfriend's hand. "I don't want to have to miss you anymore."

"Then why do you still look like I'm gone?" Beomgyu took the latter's wrist again and pulled him in his direction so that he was facing him. Then, taking the latter's other hand as well, he brought both of Yeonjun's hands to the latter's face so he could embrace it. "You said you want a fresh start, but not in what way. Do you just want to be friends with me or more? Because I'm pretty confused right now. I know things can't go back to the way they were and I don't want to blindside you either, but I don't think you even know how much I've missed you."

Beomgyu placed his hands over the brown-haired boy's, but didn't manage to look him directly in the eyes, instead keeping his gaze at chest level. "And I missed you so much. Your laugh and how stubborn you can be sometimes. That even after the year we've lived together, you still can't manage to put your shoes down neatly, or how you used to steal my blanket at night just to make me snuggle up to you. I missed how we used to tease each other until we finally got into serious fights, and how you get ten times more attractive when you're really mad." Beomgyu paused for a moment and closed his eyes. "I miss the flowers you bring home and tease me about when I don't know them. I'm sorry I left, Yeonjun, that you thought I didn't care about this relationship and that I didn't love you anymore. But I do. I love you Yeonjun, you are my sun and daisies always follow the sun."
