Six Months & Five Days | Yeonbin

[2]

Taehyun's POV.

I stood up quickly and ran after Huening Kai. "Hyuka! Slow down, where are you going?!" I yelled chasing after him. I tried not to be too loud considering we were still in the Hybe building, "leave me alone!" He yelled back.

I frowned but didn't stop following him. He turned the corner heading left, it seemed he was heading to our dorm. "Ah!" I winced, "Joesonghabnida!" I looked up to see who I had bumped into. "Jungwon?" I asked, "Sorry Hyung, I'm in a rush" He scratched his nape apologizing again, and walked off.
(Joesonghabnida is a way to say sorry)

Where did he go...

I grabbed my phone and dialed Huening Kai.
"This caller is currently unavailable, please leave a message after the beep."
I closed the call and headed down the corridor. If he won't answer then I'll look for him the hard way.

I first went over to check our dorm. I opened the door and walked in closing the door behind me. I went over to Huening and I's room since he was most likely there.

It's locked

"Kai... open the door." There was no response. I pulled out my phone and called him once again. I could hear his phone ring on the other side of the door.

"Please leave Hyung..." I heard him say.

Was he crying??

"No, I'm not going anywhere. Please just open the door." I stood there waiting, "I'll stay here all night if I have to." I heard the door unlock from the other side. He opened the door and I saw him in front of me looking down with his hair covering his face. I walked inside, closed the door behind me, grabbed his hand, and went over to my bed.

"Sit," I told him.
"I'm sorry..." he said, covering his mouth as he sat down beside me.

He was... still is, crying

I pulled him closer laying his head on my shoulder, I could barely hear his sobs as it was clear he was trying to hide them. "It's ok if you want to cry I won't say anything," immediately after I heard him let out a louder sob. My heart broke, I've never heard Huening Kai cry... none of us have. He practically never cries and if he does it's never in front of us. I wrapped my arm around him, laying my head on his.

"This is kinda awkward," he laughed between his sobs.
"How come?" I asked.
"Cause I have to hunch down since you're shorter than me." He said.
"I'm 177cm tall?!" I defended myself. I pushed him away and slapped his thigh.
He giggled, "and I'm 183cm," He said back.
I sighed, "That's not important right now. What's important is if you're ok?" He suddenly went silent looking back at the floor. "you don't have to say what's wrong if you don't want to," I added.

I could see a smile form on his face which made me smile. However, a tear escaped my eyes, seeing Huening cry also made me cry. I laid my head on his shoulder and wrapped my arm around his waist. "It's my fault...Hisbackwashurtlasttime,Imadeitworse!"

"Slow down.." I said, rubbing his shoulder. He nodded and apologized. However, Instead of saying anything else he turned his head and looked me in the eyes, his sad expression now gone. I wanted to look away, it felt weird. And... Well? I think my ears are red, or is it just really hot in here?? Finally, Huening looked away.

"It's my fault... His back was hurt before and now it's happening again and it's all my fault for tripping Yeonjun Hyung. I made it all worse, and on top of that, I even made it to practice late." He didn't cry again this time. Instead, he sat there with an upset expression.

"It's not your fault... don't blame yourself!" I said, "You didn't mean to, it was an accident, and we all make mistakes." He stayed silent. "Hyuka, look at me." I grabbed his chin and turned his head looking him directly in the eyes.

Seriously!! Is it hot here???
C'mon Taehyun, get yourself together!

"Don't blame yourself, Yeonjun Hyung isn't blaming you is he?" I raised an eyebrow. He shook his head, "So you shouldn't blame yourself either!" I scolded. "Do you know how worried I was when you ran out, I'm sure the others were worried too!" I told. He nodded apologizing, "Stop. Don't apologize!" I pulled him into a hug.

Some time went by but I wasn't sure how long. I was currently lying on my bed with Huening next to me, his head buried into my chest, and his arm around my waist. He fell asleep but, I couldn't. I played with his hair as I wrapped my arm around him as well. Huening Kai was always adorable, but he looked cuter asleep.

While my eyes were still on Huening I heard the door open. I looked up to see Beomgyu waving "Hi" to me. I pressed my lips together and slightly lifted my hand to wave back. "Is he ok?" Beomgyu whispered slowly, walking in our direction. I frowned, turning back to Huening Kai. Beomgyu Hyung ruffled my hair, "what's wrong." He said. I looked at him not noticing that I was now crying. "Tae, don't cry!" He wiped away my tears and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Hyung..." Huening Kai looked up at me, his eyes widening as he saw Beomgyu Hyung. Quickly he got up distancing himself from me.

Beomgyu and I looked at each other confused, "ohhh," Gyu said. "You two were cuddling," he made a smug face.

My eyes widened, and I felt my heart start beating faster. "Hyung!" I yelled, "It's not like that! I was comforting him!!" I shoved Beomgyu Hyung slightly. "Mhmm, sureeee."

"I was! He..." I paused looking at Huening Kai, he shook his head. "What happened?!" Beomgyu said, crossing his arms. "Why'd you run out?" We stayed silent neither saying a word, I wasn't sure why Huening Kai didn't want to tell Beomgyu Hyung but I wasn't gonna force him to.

"I don't want to talk about it," Huening said with a plain expression, not showing any emotions. Beomgyu Hyung glanced at me and then turned his attention toward Huening Kai, nodding in response.

"How is Yeonjun Hyung?" I asked. He sighed and looked down at his lap.
"He's in the hospital..." He replied.

I quickly sat up, "W-what? what happened is he ok is it serious does he need surgery... is he," I paused. "Is he leaving?" I started crying tears falling down my face, I noticed Huening wasn't crying. He was just staring at the floor, almost as if he didn't hear what we said.

Beomgyu hugged me, "It's not that bad don't worry... he'll be ok I promise." He caressed my hair, "Shh, it's ok." He lifted my head and gave me a sincere smile pulling me back into the hug.
