The graduation day-

The hall was filled with people who were jamming on some k-pop music that the DJ was playing. Ask why? It was the graduation day for all the 12 graders who've completed their studies and now leaving the school. The school booked a very big hall and all the juniors were invited to give farewell to the seniors.

Amidst the blasting music on speaker, a very handsome man was drinking beer sitting in a corner, not minded the girls looking and squealing at him. He was used to it. Guess, perks of being popular. Note the sarcasm.

He sighed big when one of his friend came and sat down next to him, a glass of beer also in his hand. His friend didn't look at him. Instead, he kept his eyes on a boy dancing crazily with his mates as he took a sip from his glass before speaking. "Where's your baby, heeseung?"

"Taehyun, I told you to stop calling him like that. He's my bestfriend, more like a brother." The guy, now known as heeseung, spoke before also taking a sip from his glass.

"Yeah, keep yourself telling that." His friend mocked before speaking. "Anyways, when are you leaving?"

"Umm...maybe in two days or something?" He shrugged before emptying the glass and kept it on the counter, his friend following suite.

"But, why do you need to go? You can also study here?" Taehyun said as he slumped in his seat. Not liking the fact that his bestfriend is going to America without him.

"Leave it. We can't do anything Anyways. But, where's Jake? I haven't seen him in a while since he came." Taehyung asked, his eyes roaming all around the hall to find that particular person but turned to his friend when his phone made a 'ding' sound, indicating that he got a message.

Heeseung opened his phone and saw a message from jake.

Jaeyun😊
Hyung...

Me
Yes?

What are you doing?

Nothing. Just talking with taehyun.
But wait, where are you?
I didn't see you anywhere.


Oh. Can you come to the rooftop for a minute?

There's something I need to tell you.


Wait a minute.
Otw.

Okay...

Bidding his bye's to Taehyun, he made his way to the terrace where Jake has called him. He had told Jake about him leaving abroad and from that day, Jake tried his best to hide it but heeseung knew that he was upset.

Reaching there, he looked at Jake who was standing near the railing and looking up at moon. His face glowing from the light that moon emitted and his hair dancing with the soft breeze of air. Not to lie, Jake was really beautiful.

Something suddenly popped up in the older's mind and he snickered inaudibly. Going to stand behind the shorter, he shouted in his ear.

"Kamchagiya!!" The younger jolted in surprise as he turned around only to find his hyung laughing at him. It may sound creepy in this situation but he always found Heeseung's laugh endearing. He hit the older's shoulder resulting him in laughing more.

"OMG Jaeyun!! You should have seen your face." Heeseung said as he continued to laugh. Not noticing the blush that crawled up on the younger's cheeks. Jake liked that. Nobody calls him by his Korean name except heeseung.

"Stop it, hyung." Jake faked his anger and again turned to face the moon.

"Okay. Okay. Now, what was the thing that you wanted to tell me?" Heeseung asked, now standing beside the younger and admiring the moon.

"Doesn't moon look so beautiful." Jake suddenly said after a minute of silence receiving a nod from heeseung.

"We can look at the moon. We can admire it's beauty. We can frown over it's scars. We can talk to the moon whenever we feel alone. And it comfort us everytime." He stopped for a second before again speaking.

"But sadly, we can never have it." This time, Jake wasn't looking at the moon. He was looking at heeseung.

Taking a big breath, he told himself.

'Sim jake. It's now or never.'

"But in my case, I want to touch that moon for the last time." He said, turning his body to fully look at heeseung who looked confused.

"What do you mea-" Heeseung was cut off when Jake took a step forward and placed his palm on the older's mouth to stop him from speaking.

"Hyung."

"Are you drunk?"

"No. You know I have high tolerance."

Jake didn't say anything. He removed his hand and kept it on his sides. His hand sweating so much from what he was about do but he again told himself, now or never.

He again took a big breath to calm his insides. He may look normal from outside, but inside his heart was beating at an abnormal speed.

"I'm sorry hyung, but you're going to hate me after this." And in a matter of seconds, Jake was on his tiptoes, kissing heeseung who's eyes blown wide open from shock.

The kiss didn't last a minute before jake whispered, "I like you, hyung."

"Goodbye."

And with that, jake ran away from there. He ran away from his feelings. He ran away from his hyung. He ran away because he was afraid of rejection. He ran away because he knew heeseung only saw him as a little brother. He ran away because he didn't wanted to cry infront of the older. Again.

Not able to look at the older's eyes, he left the hall bumping into Taehyun on the who yelled at him to stop but does Jake give a fuck? Not at all.

Reaching his house and jumping on his bed, he cried hysterically because he knew he wouldn't see his bestfriend like hyung who he just confessed his feelings for a long time. He didn't know even if will meet the older again.

And, he hoped he wouldn't after what he had done today.
