After LIKE | HoonSuk [✓]

Hyunsuk looked at his phone. Looking at the date today really make him feel tired already. It's a day before 3 of his thesis due. And those are not even a simple one. For past weeks, he has been participating in soccer related events that he barely even have time for himself. He can't even see Jihoon for more than 5 minutes, so how can he has time to finish his thesis. But what can he do? He purposely enrolled here because of the scholarship. And the scholarship required him to ace in the academy as well, if not they'll stop giving him the scholarship.

Hyunsuk walked toward his bathroom and took a shower. He opened his closet, he has no willing to dress up today. He won't even going out from his house today because of the thesis he need to finish before tomorrow anyway. He took his favorite hoodie that he always wear when suddenly he got cold and a pair of sweat pants. After done, he walked out toward his kitchen. He opened the fridge. He sighed again. Nothing edible other than 2 apples left here. He can't even remember the last time he did the groceries because of his packed schedule.

He took the apples and get ready to do his thesis. He took the materials he needed and put it in the living room. Because if he do this thesis in his bedroom, there's a higher chance that he might will dozed off. Hyunsuk turned on the television because he's not used to a too quiet surrounding. He disliked being in a too quiet surrounding.

Hyunsuk took a deep breath before started to go his thesis. Suddenly, his phone rang. It's Jihoon. He answered the call.

"Not going out today?" Jihoon asked.

Hyunsuk just realized that he haven't told Jihoon that he's not going out today. Usually he'll text Jihoon as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning to tell him about his plan for their weekend. And now it's already pass noon.

"Ah! Sorry. I forgot to tell you. I have 3 thesis that are due tomorrow. I'm not going out today," Hyunsuk said.

"You sure?" Jihoon asked.

"Yeah," Hyunsuk sighed. His fingers keep on typing on the keyboard of his laptop.

"Have you eaten?" Jihoon asked. Hyunsuk paused for a while. He did ate an apple. So it's consider as he already eaten, right? But he technically has no food left. He'll just buy it after he done than. It's not like he's starving right now.

"I've eaten," Hyunsuk said. "I'll call you when I'm done. Sorry I can't hang out with you today, and yesterday, and last week as well. We haven't really meet each other properly past two weeks because of my schedule,"

"Okay. Good luck with your thesis," Jihoon said.

"Bye," Hyunsuk said. He quickly ended the call. Because he know that if he waited for Jihoon to end the call first, he will has things to say to Jihoon. It's a lot actually. There's a lot of things he wanted to tell Jihoon. He wanted to rant about his past weeks that he haven't get to tell to Jihoon. He needed Jihoon right now. But he has works that he need to get it done.

Hyunsuk sighed before continue to do the thesis. Jihoon probably will hang out with his other friends. With Junkyu, maybe? But Junkyu is not the type that like to go out according to Yedam. But, Hyunsuk saw some of their friends' post about hanging out with Junkyu, outside. So, Junkyu still willing to go out, right?

Hyunsuk felt insecure. It has been almost 6 months since he and Jihoon dated. But from what Hyunsuk saw, they didn't really acted like lovers. It's more like friends. He can do that even he didn't date Jihoon. He can be his friend without confessing to Jihoon. 

Did Jihoon actually okay with him being his boyfriend? Like he can date someone else that he prefer more than Hyunsuk if he wanted to. But Jihoon being Hyunsuk's boyfriend just make him can't do that, at all. Because he's already someone's boyfriend. Looking at how Jihoon make people look at him with admiration in their eyes whenever he's around. Looking at how every little small act Jihoon shown, making people like him even more. Hyunsuk felt insecure. A lot.

There's a lot of things that can take Jihoon away from him. The most close thing that he can ever think about, Junkyu. Jihoon looked so comfortable being around that guy. Even more than when he's around Hyunsuk.

Hyunsuk looked at his reflection on the mirror right in front of him. Yes. He has a mirror even in his living room. Looking at how he dressed himself right now, he does look like how Junkyu would dressed up on a daily basis.

Well. It's cute. But Hyunsuk don't want to be cute. He wanted to be cool. With his small frame, people always acted like Hyunsuk can't get anything done by himself. That's why he started want to appeared more cool and strong. And that's when he started to experimenting fashion and accessories. But without those, Hyunsuk is already strong enough. Even more than any other guy that are bigger than him.

"ONE DONE!" Hyunsuk shouted when he just finished one of his thesis. He arranged the book that he already done using and put it a little away from him and started to open another book. 

Suddenly someone pressed the passcode of his door. Hyunsuk already on stand by to kick out any trespasser who tried to trespass his house right now. He'll show that the trespasser chose a wrong house to messed up with.  

His eyes widened when he saw Jihoon at his door. Both of them exchanged glances for a while before Jihoon chuckled.

"What are you doing, Choi Hyunsuk?" Jihoon asked while still chuckled. 

Seeing that face after a few days, seeing Park Jihoon's chuckled and smile, somehow make him feeling emotional. Hyunsuk didn't even realized that he's started to cry.

"Why? Why? Why are you crying?" Jihoon who looked bright just now turned worried and quickly walked toward Hyunsuk. Hyunsuk touched his cheeks. There are tears. He tried to quickly wipe it dry. He never showed anyone his tears. He don't want to. But Jihoon saw it.

"No. It's just dust," Hyunsuk said.

Jihoon sat right next to him. He still looked worried while Hyunsuk tried to fake a laugh.

"Wanna hug?" Jihoon opened his arms. Hyunsuk can't hold it anymore. He throw himself into Jihoon's arms and started to cry again. He's tired mentally and physically. But he's trying so hard to be strong. Jihoon hugged him back and softly caressed Hyunsuk's hairs. "You've worked hard these two weeks, Choi Hyunsuk,"
