An hour after Dokyeom slept, Mingyu went to check on him, instead of leaving after seeing that he was still asleep, he was standing on the edge of the bed, staring at Dokyeom's sleeping form, his peaceful face which reminded Mingyu of his past lover, one that he loved with all his life, but couldn't spend his whole life with.

Mingyu laid down beside Dokyeom on his side, propping his head up on his elbow, his other hand reaching Dokyeom's cheeks, caressing them softly, mesmerized by the beauty in front of him. He smiles, leaning forward to place a soft kiss on Dokyeom's forehead.

Mingyu's thumb traces Dokyeom's bottom lip slowly and softly, trying not to wake him up. Fifteen minutes pass by and Mingyu continues to stare at Dokyeom's innocent face his hand still caressing his face, tracing his features.

Dokyeom wakes up from his nap, feeling ticklish. He opens his eyes and his breath hitches, eyes widening when he sees a pair of eyes staring at him, too close for comfort.

"Good evening," Mingyu says, squealing internally at his cute expressions. "Sleep well?" He asks, Dokyeom snaps out of his thoughts and sits up. "Y-yeah," Dokyeom says, trying to compose his racing heart. He notices Mingyu's eyes are black now, clearly different from the dark blue ones he saw in the car. Dokyeom looks back in his eyes to confirm. Mingyu chuckles, catching up on Dokyeom's curious stare. "I wear contacts. That's what you saw before." Dokyeom's mouth forms an 'o' shape, nodding his head in understanding.

Mingyu sits up after him. "Come down for dinner." He stands up from the bed and ruffles Dokyeom's hair, walking out of the guest room after giving him a small smile.

Dokyeom's mouth is hung open, his cheeks turning crimson red, shocked because nobody has ever treated him this nice before. He places a hand over his heart, beating in his ribcage rapidly. "Why am I...nervous?" He asks himself, lightly slapping his blushing cheeks to snap out of it.

Dokyeom walks downstairs, trying to locate the dining room. He walks towards the living room, looking around at the extravagant place in amusement, plush black leather couches, a fireplace below the huge TV, aesthetic paintings hung on every wall, the smooth tiled flooring, and last but not least, the biggest chandelier he's ever seen, hung from the ceiling. "This is even bigger than Joshua's." He whispers to himself.

"AH!" Dokyeom screams, startled when Mingyu appears behind him from nowhere. "Y-you scared me." Mingyu purses his lips, trying to hide his smile, he composes himself and speaks. "The dining room is over there, come." He walks ahead, Dokyeom following behind.

Dokyeom slows down, seeing a few other men scattered around the dining area. His introverted nature comes out when everyone turns around to stare at him. He shifts uncomfortably in his place. Mingyu sits on one of the chairs. "Dokyeom, come here," He pats the empty chair beside him. "Don't worry, they are my brothers." He smiles reassuringly. Dokyeom sighs, feeling some of his nervousness dissipating. He walks over and sits beside him.

Mingyu starts introducing him to everyone and vice versa. "Guys!" He calls out, waiting for them to quiet down. "This is Dokyeom." Mingyu puts his hand on Dokyeom's shoulder, and everyone's attention turns to him.

"Dokyeom, That is Wonwoo," He points to Dokyeom's left. Wonwoo waves at Dokyeom with a smile, and Dokyeom smiles back.

Mingyu starts introducing the other men one by one. "His name is Chan, the youngest." He points to the guy beside Wonwoo.

"He is Jun, he's one of our Chinese members." Mingyu points to his right. Dokyeom cranes his neck to look over at Jun and they smile at each other.

"He's Seungcheol, he's the oldest and the best." Dokyeom smiles at Seungcheol, him doing the same with a nod of his head.

"That's Hoshi." Dokyeom looks at Hoshi, who's stuffing his face with waffles, Hoshi pauses and smiles at Dokyeom, his cheeks full of waffles, a piece poking out from between his lips.

"Minghao, he likes to be called The8 and he's our other Chinese member." He points to a calm-looking guy in the corner of the dining table.

"Woozi, he's a cutie but dangerous." He points to the guy beside Minghao.

"That's Seungkwan, you'll love him." Mingyu chuckles.

"And that's Jeonghan, he's from your city." He points to the last guy who was hidden behind his huge body.

Dokyeom's eyes widen. "J-jeonghan?" His mind reels back to the traumatic memories of getting caught kissing in the club, he clenches his fist, trying to stop it from shaking when he remembers how much he had to suffer just because of a drunk kiss, how many times he got punished and humiliated because of it. It was him, it was Jeonghan who kissed him.

"Are you ok?" Dokyeom snaps back to reality, hearing Mingyu's soft voice and a comforting hand on his back. "Y-yes yeah, I am." He looks back at Jeonghan who's on his phone. 'Did he not recognize me?' He thinks to himself.

"You can get to know them better later, let's eat now." Mingyu nods towards the plate of waffles in front of him.

"When will I go home?" Dokyeom asks in his small voice, he bites his lips when Mingyu doesn't even look up from his plate, ignoring him completely. "When will you let me go?" He asks again, louder this time. He looks around at all the men, nobody looking up from their plate or giving him answers.

Dokyeom tries to control his tears and starts eating too, thinking it must be a rule for them to not talk while eating and plans to ask him later.

Dokyeom finished his breakfast the last and by the time his plate was empty, everyone had gone to do their stuff, leaving him alone in the dining. Dokyeom gulps down the fruit juice and stands up, walking to and up the stairs to get to his room.

As soon as he exits the last stair he is pinned against the wall by two strong hands, he gasps, his eyes closed. "Nice seeing you here." Dokyeom opens his eyes, his breath stuck in his throat, seeing Jeonghan just inches away from his face. "W-what?" Dokyeom stutters, his words coming out in a breathy whisper.

"It's been a while, babyboy. Don't you think?" Jeonghan smirks, wrapping his arms around Dokyeom's waist, pulling him impossibly close, their noses touching. Dokyeom pushes his face back. "You-you remember?" His eyes widen.

Jeonghan chuckles. "Of course, How could I forget these...lips?" Jeonghan's eyes trail down to Dokyeom's lips and he licks his own. "Wh-"

"Hyung!" Dokyeom flinches and pushes Jeonghan away, his eyes on Mingyu glaring at Jeonghan from the middle of the stairs. "Dokyeom, go to your room. Now!" Mingyu orders, his eyes glued on Jeonghan. Dokyeom walks away from them in a hurry and to his room a few feet away. The door closes with a loud thud and he sits down on the bed, hearing Mingyu and Jeonghan arguing outside. He covers his face with his palm, sighing loudly as tears start flowing from his eyes into his palms. Just when he thought everything would be fine now, another problem arises, he wonders when all his problems will end.
