28 | HaPpy... Not...

One thing he always hated. it was being alone, in a big house that had 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a rec room, a swim area and workout center. Why did they need such a big house if no one would reside here anyways. It was his first time back at this house since moving into the dorms for university.

He had entered his home, as expected his family no where in sight. No one to say 'Hey I'm home!' Or 'How was school son?'. it was a ghost town. Why did they ever keep this place? His father was always working and at an apartment closer to the hospital and his mother was always traveling. They haven't ever sat down having a meal since his 14th birthday. 

What happened to having dinner tonight? They had to have forgotten...

Again... Oh wait, it was expected.

It was lonesome. Sighing heavily as he dropped his bag, it wasn't like anyone could get mad at him. He lived practically by himself. Trying to understand having a father who was a doctor and a mother who was a fashion designer. It was hard to keep up to the expectation.

Hyunjin sauntered to his kitchen opening the fridge and his eyes took sight of a bottle of soju. Did he care it belonged to his parents? No, of course not. They weren't there to stop him anyways. Cracking it open throwing the cap into his recycling bin he trudged to the backyard. It was nearly sun set, he clicked on his phone swiping through trying to find a song. 

A song that made him feel like he wasn't alone, it was nice having that one person. But now, he doesn't. It was a new song just released by someone who seemed to read him like a book. Hyunjin didn't even know who the artist was. No one did for that matter. 

"Fell on the earth I'm an alien on this earth

Feels like I don't fit in anywhere

No matter how hard I tried to smile I feel so lonely

An alien that got mixed with the earth people

I tried to speak my voice but no one hears me"

He sat down on his lawn chair by the pool sipping his drink. Hyunjin hated this feeling. He hated being the way he was. He remembered when his life was okay. 

"Minnie! you forgot your book again!" Hyunjin chuckled as the older was going down his steps. Minho turned around with a smile. 

"Gave me a reason to see you again, before I left for the night." Minho responded taking the book from the tallers hands. Hyunjins hair was brown at the time, longer and pulled up in a pony tail. His pearly smile, made the older smile. Seeing Hyunjin like this was happiness to Minho. It was better than seeing him in his worst state of despair.  

"Are you sure you'll be okay tonight? I know you hate being alone Hyunjin. I'll stay..." 

"You have finals tomorrow Hyung, just go home. I don't want to be a burden. you know that." Hyunjin responded with a low voice. Minho cupped the youngers neck, bringing their foreheads together. 

"You'll never be a burden Hyunjin. Its why I am here." Minho said bringing his lips to kiss the younger. Hyunjin gasped, feeling Minho pulling him in closer. The moment made him feel fuzzy, making him forget his loneliness. Even if it was just for a bit. 

Minho's lips tasted like cherry, the olders tongue swiped along his bottom lip, making Hyunjin instantly melt to the feeling.
