Choi Beomgyu has an actor for a boyfriend. 

No, he doesn't mean when Taehyun acts dramatic when Beomgyu refuses to do chores for him, or when he pulls out his pitiful eyes whenever Beomgyu says no to him. Or when he acts as if he's upset when Beomgyu doesn't pay attention to him. 

He means it in a professional job type of way. 

Taehyun was a child actor. Being exposed to the fame and spotlight at the early age of eleven wasn't always a good thing. It came with struggles, but Taehyun didn't pay any attention it. He loved his job, he loved portraying various characters and emotions. 

If Taehyun wasn't worried, Beomgyu sure as hell was. 

You see, even Beomgyu didn't know how he managed to pull such a gorgeous guy like Taehyun. They met in high-school, and started off as seatmates to good friends. Soon, it evolved into something else. 

Something more intimate and domestic,

Like a couple. 

This happened a few over four years ago. Beomgyu shuddered at the thought of the time being passed by so soon. 

They were now in their final year of University, with Beomgyu majoring in music and Taehyun majoring in acting and film. For Taehyun, it was difficult managing both his career and academics. Well, also maintaining his secret relationship with Beomgyu, away from the public's hawk eyes. 

For Beomgyu, his main concern was his boyfriend, who didn't give a shit about his own damn health. 

It pained Beomgyu to see his lover overworking himself, trying his best to be the perfect persona that he didn't even create. Beomgyu tried his best to take care of Taehyun by often giving him at least two home-cooked meals a day, reminding the younger to keep himself hydrating, helping Taehyun learn his lines and helping him with his audition preparations by staying up late in the night even when he had early classes the very next morning. 

"Tyun, you okay?" Beomgyu knocked on the open door, letting the very focused male know that he was here. 

Taehyun hummed, circling and underlining something on his script page. His front bangs were tied in an apple bun so that it could avoid from falling in front of his eyes. He was wearing an oversized shirt, which Beomgyu confidently knew that it was his. His forehead had a frown creasing on it and there was an emptied cup of iced-americano on the desk. 

"Did you eat or drink anything today?" Beomgyu asked, concerned as he saw Taehyun chew on the remaining ice in the cup. 

Taehyun shook his head as a no. "Not since four pm." He said, not glancing up from the page. 

"Four pm-" Beomgyu stammered, taking a look at his wrist watch. "It's almost nine-forty right now. Should I cook up something for you?"

"Not needed." Taehyun shortly answered. "You must be tired. Get some sleep, I'll join you in a bit."

Beomgyu sighed, walking towards the desk and placing a hand on Taehyun's shoulder from behind. "I think you should now leave it for today. You look so tired, literally few seconds away from passing out." 

Taehyun didn't reply and Beomgyu felt a bit frustrated when he saw Taehyun turning over to the next page. Why wasn't he listening? Saying that the older one was concerned was an understatement. Taehyun looked so fatigued and drained out. Beomgyu's heart clenched at that.
