Yeonjun didn't sleep a wink.
All night he was tossing and turning. Every time he closed his eyes the vision of Taehyun's bloody skull cracked on the ground and his lifeless body laying there flashed through his mind. Soobin woke up a couple times beside him, kissing his shoulders and whispering everything would be okay before falling asleep again with Yeonjun in his arms.
When daytime raised soobin woke seeing Yeonjun already up dressed and stood by the window.
"Baby are you okay?" Soobin spoke up softly, his voice a little croaky.
Yeonjun turned around and gave him a small smile.
"I'm okay" Yeonjun nodded
"Did you sleep at all?" Soobin asked frowning.
Yeonjun shook his head. "No. Not really"
Soobin climbed out of the sheets and hugged Yeonjun. "I'm going to go brush my teeth okay and then we can make breakfast yes?"
Yeonjun smiled again. "Sounds good. I'll wait downstairs I'm sure beomgyu will be awake by now"
With soobin in the bathroom Yeonjun wondered down the stairs.
"Morning, everything okay?" Beomgyu smiled warmly, unknowing of what went down yesterday.
"Everything is perfect" Yeonjun smiled before walking over to the stove.
"Breakfast?" Beomgyu asked.
"I'm just waiting for soobin to wash up but feel free to help yourself" Yeonjun offered.
"Oh I already ate. Being here three years my body kind of got into the routine of being up at 5am" beomgyu chuckled
Yeonjun frowned. He hated being slapped back into reality at times like this. Things were going so nicely, well besides taehyun, and Yeonjun didn't want it to end.
"Morning beomgyu" Soobin greeted.
"Morning, you're moving a lot better now are the sores on your feet gone?" Beomgyu asked
Soobin nodded with a smile. "much better. It's amazing what a couple days rest can do for you"
"What happened to your face? You looked fine yesterday morning?" Beomgyu questioned as soobisn faced was swollen and beginning to bruise.
Both boys immediately tensed up at the thought of what happened yesterday.
"Um I actually fell down the stairs while you were out haha. Cut my face pretty bad. Those stairs are harrdddd." Soobin assumed the lie wouldn't work but he didn't want to drag beomgyu into it.
"Jesus it looks like you've been in a fight. Those stairs really showed you who was boss" Beomgyu grimaced.
Yeonjun watched as the boys interacted. They were laughing off the fact their bodies were winding into something they shouldn't be doing. It made Yeonjun sad.
"Well If I have anything to say about it you won't be getting any bruises, cuts or sores anywhere anymore" Yeonjun walked over to soobin and kissed him. "Except for the ones you cause yourself" he laughed.
Unknowingly to any of them Yeonjun's fathers trip got cut short
And he was on his way home.
-
The three of them were sat talking in the living room when they heard horses neighing outside.
Yeonjun shot up and looked outside the window.
"Oh shoot, it's my father!" Yeonjun panicked.
"What! He's back already" Soobin and beomgyu both raised to their feet.
"Soobin quickly outside, umm Beomgyu go wash some dishes or something I don't know" Yeonjun felt tears coming to his eyes he was so scared if he got caught his father would surely kill the pair and Yeonjun could have serious punishment.
The three scattered. Soobin ran out of the back of the house to make sure he wasn't seen before going back to harvest the crops that were only half finished after yesterday.
Beomgyu headed to the dining room to clear up any mess the boys had left scattered around.
And as for Yeonjun he ran upstairs to get changed and prepared to put on his biggest act.
A few moments later and his father wondered up the path to his house. Walking straight past Soobin not even batting an eye.
As he entered the house Yeonjun was there waiting for him at the door.
"Father I had no idea you'd be coming home early. What happened?" Yeonjun asked with a smile, his palms super sweaty.
"We managed to strike a deal faster than I thought we would so we headed home" Mr. Choi explained
"That's wonderful" Yeonjun nodded
"So how have things been. Did taehyun come and visit?" He asked
"Oh umm. Things have been great" Yeonjun informed
"And taehyun?" He pushed
Yeonjun cleared his throat. "He umm. You know what he. He actually didn't"
"Huh strange. I was sure he would" Mr.choi shrugged it off
"D-did Mr. Kang head home?" Yeonjun stuttered
"He did. And how are the slaves? Did they keep doing chores while I was gone?"
"Of course father I wouldn't let you down." Yeonjun chuckled nervously
"I'm going to take a shower. Make sure that brunette has a towel and some fresh clothes ready for me when I get out"
"Y-yes father" Yeonjun nodded as his dead walked past.
Once he had left Yeonjun Let out a sigh of relief he didn't know he was holding.
"Oh my goodness" Yeonjun whispered
He wondered over to beomgyu who was changing the table cloth.
"Father wants you to go pick out some clothes for him after he showers" Yeonjun spoke quietly.
Beomgyu nodded his head before walking out of the dining room.
"Yes sir"
