Everyone had gone to sleep. Chan stood outside the hotel. It was dark. All the shops had closed except the one Chan bought his last cigarette from.
He let out a puff. He'd let himself down. The smoke dissolved into the sky.
"Hey ,bud."
Chan was startled, he turned around to see a tall figure in the dark, stepping into the light to reveal Hyunjin.
"Can't sleep?", Chan asked.
"Guessed it."
He offered him a cigarette, Hyunjin refused.
"I can't smoke again. I'm years without it."
"I'm sorry I put Felix through all that.", Chan admitted.
Hyunjin was a little surprised. "He's stronger than we think,you know? It takes a lot of strength to be kind in a world like this.. and Felix is the kindest man on earth. I'm sorry if I was too harsh on you, man. I misunderstood you."
"Thanks.", Chan inhaled deep. Another puff.
The two stood there for what felt like an hour.
Finally Chan spoke, "You know.. its nice to see how you and Felix have stayed together despite so much. I've never heard either of you say one bad word to each other."
"It just happens. Its love. You'll know it when you're in love."
"I think I am.", Chan confessed, his voice shook. " His name is Jeongin. I had to be with him under the pretense of a student. He felt pretty betrayed when I revealed my real self, I guess. I've not seen him since that day-"
His voice broke again. There were tears in his eyes, and they dropped like rain from the balcony.
" I can't blame him. ", said Hyunjin," But I know he loved you. He'd kept your picture in his wallet. He was always out buying meds for you. He could never speak that well. But his love is in the little things of life. "
" I'm just paying the price. I almost ruined you and Felix, I've almost ruined my brother's love for Changbin. You know, it was his first time being that soft for someone else.. I'm a failure. A total fucking failure. "
" Don't say that.. ", Miyeon had suddenly appeared behind the boys. She couldn't sleep either, there were bags under her eyes.
There was a shared sadness in the three. Something only they really could feel. Miyeon pulled the both of them in a hug.
" Now off to sleep, boys. Tomorrow's a big day."
" Where'd we be without you, Miyeon? ", Chan loosened up.
They turned around and went into the room, not noticing the eyes that watched them from the darkness below.
