Dunk was about to go bust down Joong's door after what he had tweeted. After he had tweeted back saying he did, in fact, need a hug, Dunk had immediately jumped into his car, starting the drive towards Joong.

When he got there, Dunk used the key that Joong had given him to let himself in.

Closing the door behind him quietly, Dunk crept through the hallways, looking for Joong. He started with Joong's bedroom, finding him tucked into the covers. As Dunk stood in the doorway, Joong looked up and met his eyes, already getting out of the bed. Dunk doesn't say anything but holds his arms opens. Joong nestles his face in Dunk's neck; Dunk wraps his arms around Joong, holding him tightly.

Joong doesn't want to talk. He doesn't want to cry, either. He simply just wants to be held by Dunk for as long as he possibly can. When Joong pulls back, Dunk holds his face in his hands, stroking his cheeks softly.
"You okay?" Dunk asks him softly, brushing hair out of his eyes.
Joong takes a deep breath and nods. "I'm okay. But... can you hold me for just a little a longer?"
Dunk smiles as he squishes Joong's cheeks in his hand and nods.

Joong sits curled up in Dunk's arms, his eyes closed as Dunk runs his fingers through his hair gently. Joong wants to say thank you but he doesn't feel like it's enough. Raising his head, he looks at Dunk with a soft smile on his lips, reaching his hand to touch Dunk's nose. Dunk meets his eyes, laughing softly.

There is something on the tip of Dunk's tongue, Joong can tell. He wants to coax the words out of him, but he's unsure how; instead, he looks at Dunk and waits for it to come out.

Dunk's heart is pounding on the inside of his chest. Joong is looking at him and he wants to say what he wants, but he doesn't know how to say it— He could just blurt it out. Can Joong hear my heartbeat? He thinks, glancing down at his chest. Is it really that loud?

Joong doesn't know what internal conversation Dunk is having inside his head, but he follows Dunk's eyes when they look down at his chest. He raises his own hand, pressing his palm over Dunk's heart, feeling the wild beat underneath his fingers. When he looks back up, Dunk is avoiding eye contact.

Joong's hand pressing against his chest is only making Dunk's heart beat wilder. He avoids making eye contact and out blurts, "I want to kiss you." Instantly, he feels his cheeks flush, he had meant to ask if he could kiss Joong, but now Joong is staring at him, an amused smile on his lips and his heart is beating so much faster than before and what if he just messed everything up, what if—

Joong's lips are on his, slamming his train of thoughts to a screeching halt. Joong grabs Dunk by the waist, pulling him forward and tugging him closer, maneuvering them so that he can sit on Dunk's lap. His hands are on Dunk's neck, brushing his skin lightly as he tilts Dunk's head back to deepen the kiss.

Joong pulls Dunk's lip gently as they pull apart, both breathing heavily. Dunk can't help but to instantly smile, drawing a hand across Joong's jawline. The movement almost sends shivers down Joong's spine and he smiles back at him, kissing the tip of Dunk's nose.
"I love you, Dunkie," Joong murmurs.
"I love you, Joong." Dunk replies, leaning forward to kiss his cheek. "I love you so much."
