Love is a strong emotion, one can't handle it all by themselves, they need someone to hold their hand through the journey and carry the strong weight together.

Love is a caterpillar. It starts as a small ugly feeling, you don't like it nor you want it. Slowly, it grows bigger and starts forming beautiful little wings, that's the time where the love you have is something mesmerizing, you want more of it, you want it to grow bigger.

But as the small caterpillar turns into a butterfly, the glass container starts to become suffocating for it, the little butterfly can only swap its wing but not be able to fit in there. The feeling of love starts to grow in your heart too, just like the butterfly, and over time, it becomes hard to breathe, it hurts the fragile heart.

The butterfly starts to swap its wings faster and more forcefully, until the rage inside the small being turns into hatred for the place it was formed in, the glass container. The pretty feeling of love turns into an ugly emotion and just like the butterfly it starts to break the heart little by little, piece by piece.

And in the end, the butterfly has broken the glass and free itself, the love too. It has broken its birthplace and has left the owner of the heart all alone, feeling like a stupid piece of shit for taking care of the feeling and caterpillar, for letting both of them break him until all left of him is a broken heart and glass, ready to hurt anyone who tries to get close to him.

But that's not the case all of the time. Sometimes, the owner frees the butterfly by himself and lets the pretty thing fly freely, a feeling it hasn't felt for a long time.

Beomgyu, too, freed his love from the suffocating container and showed it to his world, his Taehyun.

Now the little butterfly isn't hurt nor does it hurt Beomgyu.

Oh, Taehyun, his world, his star, his everything.

His Taehyun.

Taehyun who loves his scars, Taehyun who drew stars on them, Taehyun who thinks Beomgyu deserves the whole world, but the world doesn't deserve Beomgyu, Taehyun who would do anything for him but still refuse to say a small 'I love you' to Beomgyu.

"Taehyunie~" Beomgyu called for the latter who was sitting on the couch with his phone in his hand.

"What do you want?"

"Ouch, you broke my little heart with that tone of yours, star"

Taehyun rolled his eyes at his boyfriend's dramatic action, but still managed to show his smile. He put his phone on the table and turned to Beomgyu who now had his back turned to Taehyun. He could feel the small pout on Beomgyu's lips.

"Ayy, come on. You know I was busy texting Huening, he is my best friend after all, you text Yeonjun hyung all of the time too!" he said with his hands crossed on his chest.

"Beomgyu, come on!!! Why are you acting like a kid" he whined but Beomgyu still didn't answer him.

He sighed. Taehyun knew exactly what Beomgyu wanted, it was one of his tricks to get Taehyun to do what he asked him to do.

He slid himself closer to the older, and threw his arms around Beomgyu's shoulders, back hugging him. Beomgyu still didn't show any reaction.

'You really want to play that game huh?'

Taehyun rested his head on Beomgyu's shoulder and looked up to him with his eyes full on doe mode, he placed a kiss on Beomgyu's neck and didn't know from the spot.
