Seungcheol sighed as he prepared himself to walk into his house. He walked in, followed by a man. "Jeonghan, meet my boyfriend, Jisoo," he said, placing a hand on his shoulder. Jeonghan, who was dusting the shelves, turned around, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Boyfriend?" he asks, his voice steady but a hint of confusion in his tone.

"Yes, Jisoo and I have been seeing each other for a few months now. So, I thought it was time for you two to meet." Seungcheol said, trying to gauge Jeonghan's reaction. Jeonghan's smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Nice to meet you, Jisoo," Jeonghan said politely. "Would you like something to drink?" He tries to keep his composure.

The evening progressed awkwardly. Jeonghan's usually seamless interactions with Seungcheol now seem so forced. He couldn't shake the growing frustration inside him. He watched as Seungcheol laughed at Jisoo's jokes and the way he touched his arm. Something twisted in his chest.

As the days passed, Jeonghan's jealousy intensified. He needed to get rid of Jisoo. He needs to break them up. So, whenever Jisoo would come over, he would misplace his belongings. It was subtle at first, but his actions became bolder.

One evening, the two were sitting in the living room on silence, when Seungcheol decided that enough is enough. "We need to talk," he said, his tone serious.

Jeonghan's eyes darted nervously. "About what?"

"About you and Jisoo. I've noticed... things," Seungcheol said carefully. "Jisoo is just my coworker. I paid him to help me. I wanted to see how you'd react to me having someone else in my life."

Jeonghan's face fell. He felt a mix of relief and betrayal. "Why would you do that?"

"Because I needed to understand what was happening with you," Seungcheol said gently. "Your behavior changed, Jeonghan. You became possessive."

Jeonghan looked away, feeling a pang of guilt. "I'm sorry," he muttered.

The night ended early, with the two still having tension. It has never felt so awkward between them- it didn't sit right with Seungcheol, but he pushed it aside.

The next morning, Seungcheol woke up to find Jeonghan sitting on the couch, staring blankly into space. "Jeonghan, are you okay?" he asked, walking over to him.

Jeonghan looked up at him. "I'm sorry for everything," he said softly. He stood up and hugged Seungcheol tightly. He hugged him back, as he caressed his hair. "It's ok, Jeonghan-"

Before he could finish his sentence, Seungcheol felt a sharp pain in his side. He gasped, looking down to see a knife in Jeonghan's hand.

"Jeonghan... why?" he whispered as his vision blurred.

"I'm so sorry," Jeonghan said, his voice breaking. "But I can't lose you."

Seungcheol's vision went black.

When he woke up, he was in the lab, but something was different. He felt strange, his body responding in ways he didn't understand. He looked at his hands - they were partly metallic. He was a cyborg.

Jeonghan stood nearby, watching him anxiously. "I had to, Cheolie. I couldn't let you leave me."

Seungcheol's mind was a haze of confusion and anger. "What did you do to me?" his eyes looked at him with a mixture of anger and sadness.

"I made you like me," Jeonghan said, sniffling as he tried to keep a smile on his face. "So you would never leave."

At first, Seungcheol tried to adjust to his new existence. Jeonghan had programmed him to love, to feel the same intensity of emotions that Jeonghan felt. But as time passed, something felt wrong. The love he received from Seungcheol was mechanical, forced.

Jeonghan watched as Seungcheol went through the motions, his heart breaking. He realized the gravity of his mistake. This wasn't love; it was a hollow imitation. He had taken away Seungcheol's free will, and in doing so, he had lost the person he cherished most.

One night, the two were watching a movie in bed. "I made a mistake," he admitted, his voice barely a whisper. "I thought if I made you like me, we could be together forever. But this... this isn't right."

He clinged onto Seungcheol. He held onto him for dear life. He couldn't believe what he'd done.

I love you.. I'm sorry..
