« Hyung »

It was with surprise that the two men turned back to the sofa. They didn't expect anyone to be up at that hour. They approached Yohan, Ji Wook sat beside him while Seo Joon went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. He, in turn, sat down on the couch across from the other two.

« Hyung, what's going on with Todd... Yohan asked, looking Seo Joon straight in the eye, wanting to have clear answers regarding his friend's situation.

– Todd? ah, the situation is a bit complicated, and it's my fault, I'll talk to him tomorrow.

– Like how you talked to him this morning ?

– Yohan ! whispered Ji Wook. This one looked at Ji Wook with as much determination as Seo Joon before turning to continue.

– I don't know what happened between you, Todd didn't tell anyone about it, except Theo, who didn't want to say anything out of respect for his brother, but he seemed rather happy yesterday at the reverse today. I saw you talking this morning, and he seemed depressed... after a silence that seemed far too long for everyone, Yohan continued. Are you together?

– Not yet

– Not yet ? It means there's a possibility, it means your feelings are mutual, from how he's been acting all day it doesn't seem like it.

– It's a bit complicated... I will talk to him tomorrow, it's my fault, I said something that hurt him.

– Hyung... Todd, he looks like a playboy, who doesn't care a bit about everything, and we can't deny that he's a bit like that, but when he gets involved in something, he gives it his all, whether at school, in sports... or his relationships. It's not my place to tell you about his childhood, but he didn't have it easy despite being born into a socially well-to-do family. Take his feelings into consideration. Yohan got up to go to his room with Ji Wook behind him, who wanted to wish him good night.

– Yohan, I promise to take care of him, I was selfish, I thought only of myself and not of us. I'll catch up tomorrow, I don't want to let him go.

– Start tonight, if you don't want to let him go, start tonight. He hasn't come back yet. It's almost 1 a.m., it's dark outside. We talked about it with Theo, we wanted to go get him, he's probably near the lake, where he always goes to read. If you want to prove to him that there is still a possibility between you two, go get him. Clarify the situation now, it's the only way for you not to lose him. »

On his words, Yohan entered his room with Ji Wook behind him. He took her hands seeing that he was worried. He hugged him for a few moments to support him, before letting him go into the bathroom to prepare for sleep. He kissed him on the forehead before sitting on the second bed while waiting.

He knows that Yohan and Todd are close, even though they don't have the same circle of friends at all, the same interests, they remain essential to each other. It's not for nothing that they have remained friends after all these years. He sees that the situation is not the best and cannot imagine the anguish of knowing Todd alone in the dark, in the middle of the night. It must not have been easy for Theo either, but Seo Joon and Todd have to solve their problem, the faster, the better.

Things happened naturally, Ji Wook was put under the blanket not having the strength to go up to the second floor. He decided to take the second bed for the night, he wanted to stay close to Yohan. Tired, he didn't take long to doze off, but he wanted to stay awake to say goodnight to the youngest. To his surprise, this one comes to slip under the blanket, where Ji Wook was, taking him by the waist so as not to fall from the bed, which is a little small for two people. The silence was in order and neither of them wanted to talk, Ji Wook being afraid that the youngest would change his mind and Yohan not wanting to have to explain his behaviour, this one going against the words he said. stated a few days earlier. They both remained silent, enjoying each other's warmth.
