*I wrote this entire chapter just to find out that I accidentally deleted it so uh yeah 😃😃😃😃😃*

Woo woo: Hey, so my group is throwing a party in celebration of our recent win. Wanna come? The rest of your members can come as well :)))

"Shit," Seungmin muttered, shifting uncomfortably in his seat at the dinner table.

"What is it? " Jeongin questioned, leaning over to look at Seungmin's phone. Chan also peered over, squinting to read the print.

  Chan was sitting on his left and Jeongin sat on his right. All three of them had neglected their food in front of them, in their own world while the rest of the members laughed loudly and joked with each other.

"Hmm, a party I see, " Chan said, smiling. "We should go. "

  "No, we should not. There's no way I can go and act like everything is normal. After what happened, I can't show my face. And I need to tell him that I don't feel that way for him. But I can't do that there, " Seungmin said, sighing and turning off his phone.

  Jeongin looked up from his position, blinking at him in confusion, "why not? Isn't that the perfect opportunity to talk to him? "

  "Yeah," Chan said, leaning back in his chair. "You're gonna get the chance to talk to him alone, I promise. Besides, I need to talk to Hongjoong anyway. "

"Why do you need to talk to Hongjoong? "

  "Just something I'm curious about, " Chan said, pushing back his chair and standing up. "But you should go. We need a break anyway and I'm sure we'll be allowed to go. We can go as a group so you don't feel as awkward. "

"That sounds fine to me, " Jeongin said, smiling. He gave Seungmin a pat on the shoulder before clearing his plate and following Chan out of the room, talking about what they would most likely wear.

  One by one, the members faded away into different rooms. A few left to their own perspective rooms in the other dorm, leaving Seungmin alone in the dining room. He stared in front of him at the plate full of untouched food, and frowned. He didn't think it was a good idea. If he were to go to that party and meet Wooyoung's group, wouldn't that be the same as meeting his family?

  But he didn't really see any other way that would be as easy. Asking him to hang out to talk to him would be like asking him out on a date and there was no way he was going to break the news over text.

"Why didn't you eat? "

Seungmin looked up to see Lee Know reaching for the plate in front of the younger. Seungmin mentally cursed when he felt himself blush.

"I lost my appetite, " he said quietly.

"You've been 'losing your appetite' a lot recently. I'm worried about you, " Lee Know commented, clearing his plate and sitting next to Seungmin.

"I'm fine. "

"Yeah, right... You don't like Wooyoung... Do you? "

Seungmin tensed, staring down at his fingers which had bruised after picking and biting at them repeatedly. "No, not in that way. I feel... Bad. "

Lee Know wanted nothing more than to comfort the other, but he didn't know how to without flustering him.

  Glancing at the younger, he furrowed his eyebrows slightly. Seungmin had always been the cutest to him, even above Jeongin. It broke his heart to see the other's bright smile disappear because of him. And there was nothing he could do about it.

"Seungmin, I have complete faith that you are going to figure this out. I know you Seungmin. I know that you're going to pull through and come out even stronger. Because that's who you are. Just follow your heart. Because if I trust it, you should too. "

  Seungmin didn't know how emotional of a person he was until now. He broke down in tears for the millionth time that month, gripping the table's edge. But in an instant, Lee Know's arms were around him, pulling him into a tight hug.

"I love you Seungmin. Even though I don't see you as a lover, I do see you as more than a friend. You're family. And without you, I wouldn't be me. "

  This only made Seungmin cry harder. He didn't know how long he was sitting there in the other's arms, but before he knew it, he woke up in his bed.

  Glancing at the illuminated clock on his night stand, he noticed it was 4:30 AM. Sighing, he flung himself back on his bed and grumbled nonsensical stuff to himself while making up images with the lines on the ceiling.

  After thinking for a moment, get brushed the hair our of his face and grabbed his phone, and messaging Wooyoung.
