The ride to Niki's place was silent as none of them spoke a word, sunoo had stopped crying and Niki was more than grateful for that. After parking his car, Niki opened the door at Sunoo's side carrying the sleeping boy on his back.

Niki carried Sunoo's on his back as he got in the elevator pressing on the floor he needed to go to. Sunoo was closing his eyes not wanting to face anything or anyone right now, he just wanted to let his guard down for once and let Niki take care of him.

He was embarrassed for breaking down in front of niki like that and acting so childish, but what could he do when his heart was hurting so much? It's not like he wanted to cry and embarrass himself in front of so many strangers and make things even harder for Niki.

Upon arriving at Niki's apartment, Niki placed sunoo on the couch as he walked into the kitchen to get some water for Sunoo. He walked back with a glass of water in his hand, he bent down on his knees in front of the sitting figure of Sunoo "hyung, here have some water."

Sunoo stared at Niki for a few seconds before taking the glass of water, drinking it all in just one go, handing the glass back to niki taking a deep breath. Niki smiled taking the glass from Sunoo's hand, "You must want to shower after all, you can use the room I prepared for you while getting this apartment."

"Is that okay?" Sunoo asked, hesitantly fidgeting with his fingers as he looked down, not sure why he felt so self conscious and worthless all of a sudden. Niki placed the glass down taking Sunoo's hands in his own "Sunoo-Hyungie.. everything is going to be okay, and you don't have to be scared or feel sorry for anything..I will always protect you, now go take a warm shower, I will bring you a pair of clothes."

Sunoo bit his lower lip nodding he didn't want to cry anymore but the way Niki looked at him, the way Niki was holding his hand, made him feel so safe that it made him want to cry even more, because he was sure that, Niki would sit down and listen to him cry all night without saying or asking him anything.

The bathroom was full of warm steam as sunoo turned off the shower stepping out of the bathroom with a bathrobe around his body. He stares at his reflection in the mirror, his eyes are red and swollen from crying, his face is pale as if all the life has been sucked out of his body.

He sighed sitting down on the edge of the bed, he covered his face in his hands taking a deep breath to calm himself down. He knows that he has to get a grip on his emotions and face the situation he was in. It was no more about Sunghoon and him, it was now about Sunghoon, Wonyoung and him.

He will not care about Sunghoon's reason for lying to him, nor will he turn an blind eye to all the things he has done, either Sunghoon gives him answers to all of his questions or he has to do something he has been avoiding for almost a year now.

He was brought back from his thoughts as he heard knocking, he sat down straight pulling himself together, he didn't want to worry Niki any further, "yes?" He asked, tilting his head slightly as he stared at the door. "I bought you clothes, if you stay in the bathrobe for a long time you might catch a cold" niki spoke from behind the locked room.
