As soon as the door closed behind Hongjoong and Mingi, chaos erupted. Seongwha had to be strong as the oldest but he wanted nothing more than to curl into a ball and cry, just as the others were doing.
"Do you think he's really going to cane us?" Yeosang was beginning to hyperventilate and Seongwha had to do something about that. Lying would only make things worse but there was no way that Seongwha could say yes to that.
"It's okay, honey. Hyung is here" Seongwha hugged Yeosang close to him. That was answer enough and Yeosang cried harder.
"Shh, Sangie. I need you to breathe, can you do that? Breathe for hyung please?" Seongwha took a deep breath in and out, coaching Yeosang through it until the younger was no longer hyperventilating.
"Poor Mingi" Yunho whispered. Jongho scoffed.
"Poor all of us" He muttered back. Yeosang shook his head.
"No. Poor Wooyoung" Yeosang whispered. No one had anything to say to that.

"Hands against the wall" Hongjoong ordered. Mingi hiccupped but he didn't have the heart to argue so he put his hands against the wall and waited.SWISH THWACK
Mingi bit his lip, keeping from crying out. Hongjoong was not holding back at all but Mingi didn't expect him to. What he had done was unacceptable, it was borderline evil. Mingi deserved this and he knew it.
SWISH THWACK
"Ahh!" Mingi bit his shirt, closing his eyes tightly as hot tears burned his eye. Hongjoong faltered. As much as he knew this was deserved, it was never easy to do this.
SWISH THWACK SWISH THWACK SWISH THWACK
Mingi crumpled to the floor, unable to take anymore. Hongjoong dropped the cane to the side, biting back his own tears. He refused to let himself cry in front of Mingi or anyone else.
"We're-" Hongjoong choked on his words and tears. "we're done" he whispered. Mingi stayed on the floor, crying loudly. Hongjoong had to leave; he couldn't take it. He knew he should have stayed behind to comfort Mingi but he just couldn't do it. Hongjoong opened the door, walking Mingi back to the others and entrusting him to Seongwha, who did not hesitate to wrap their gentle giant into a hug and wipe his tears. Seongwha even gave Hongjoong a worried glance but the leader ignored it. He didn't deserve any sympathy. Yunho and San both walked over to him, then looked at each other. Yunho stepped back, motioning for San to go ahead. Hongjoong followed San out of the room and to the same room he had just come from with Mingi.
San was one of the hardest, so was Yeosang. With each one, Hongjoong got closer and closer to the end of his strength but it was Seongwha that pushed him over the edge.
"I'm disappointed in you" Hongjoong admitted, sounding tired. Seongwha hung his head.
"I know. I am too" Seongwha responded. Hongjoong wasn't surprised to hear that. He had expected that much.
"What did Wooyoung ever do to you?" Hongjoong wondered. He had been dying to ask that the whole time but no one else would've been able to answer him. Seongwha was the only one.
"Nothing" Seongwha answered.
"I'm going to need more than that. There must have been something" Hongjoong waited.
"There isn't" Seongwha shook his head. Hongjoong couldn't believe that. Even he could not believe that his members would bully someone for a whole month for no reason. It was unthinkable.
"So you just bullied him, terrorized him for no reason?" Hongjoong looked up at Seongwha.
"I-yeah" Seongwha hated to admit it. There was nothing more to it than that though. That was all there was. Hongjoong stared at him.
"I can't believe you" Hongjoong's tone was sharp. Seongwha hung his head. He deserved that. He deserved everything that could happen: a hiatus, being kicked out of the company, no longer being an idol.
"I'm not reporting you to the company so you can stop thinking of all those possibilities because they aren't happening" Hongjoong snapped. Seongwha blushed.
"Sorry" He mumbled. Hongjoong scoffed, looking away from him. There was no more dancing around it, this had to happen and Hongjoong had to do it. As soon as it was finished, Hongjoong finally got over his guilt at hurting his brothers and pulled Seongwha into a hug. He hadn't held back at all and Seongwha was sensitive, no matter how much he denied it. He couldn't handle pain well and he couldn't handle knowing that he had disappointed someone, especially someone he looked up to and respected.
When Wooyoung woke up, he denied seeing the members just as Hongjoong had expected and it wasn't until a week later that he finally agreed to it, mostly because they had to attend a therapy session together as eight to get things resolved. It was safe to say, there was a lot of yelling and tears that day and no one talked to each other when they got home.
