And it all just stopped...

Soobin was overwhelmed by his emotions that he struggled to understand. It was as if a heavy weight was pressing down on him, leaving him breathless, as though the entire world around him was collapsing.

The sense of impending doom hung in the air, and he couldn't shake the feeling of helplessness that gripped him tightly. The situation was weighed heavily on his mind, leaving him to wonder how in the world he would ever find a way to untangle the chaos. Desperation clawed at him as he searched for answers, but all he could feel was the suffocating pressure of uncertainty.

Everything just went by so fast. One moment, he was with Yeonjun... having the best time of his life, laughing, talking, and kissing that felt like they would last forever...

But now, that energy had vanished, leaving an unsettling silence in its wake.

Yeonjun, he was gone, he left...

It was just Taehyun he was facing with an expression on his face he could not read. The unreadable look on Taehyun's face made the situation even more intense, as though it was a mirror reflecting his own confusion and heartache.

"...Taehyun..." He hesitantly spoke. "W–We need to talk..."

At this moment, they found themselves in a rather tense situation. Seated together on the couch, he felt the weight of Taehyun's expectant gaze, which hung heavily in the air between them.

It was clear that Taehyun was eager for an explanation, but all Soobin could think of right now was how on earth was he going to explain everything that had happened? How was he going to explain how he fell in love with him? Or how hating Yeonjun turn into loving him?

Oh, just how he wishes he could just bury himself in a hole and disappear forever with.... yeonjun. However, he knew he could no longer keep this secret to himself; it was essential that he shared it with Taehyun.

Taking a deep breath to steady his nerves, he prepared himself for what he was about to say. With a mixture of anxiety and determination swirling within him, he thought to himself, "This is it" He mustered up the courage to finally face Taehyun, ready to tell the truth, no matter how daunting it might be. Here goes nothing.

"... I like Yeonjun.."

Taehyun's eyes widened in surprise as he prepared to speak, his mouth opening slightly. However, before he could utter a word, Soobin quickly intrupts a sense of urgency in his voice. "Wait, hold on! Please don’t say anything just yet. Let me finish everything I need to say first, alright?"

Taehyun closes his mouth and nods, waiting for the older to continue.

"...I know I'm a bad brother. I know I am, but... I–I just couldn't help it." Soobin looks down.

Taehyun stays quiet, waiting for him to continue.

He lets out a deep sigh, his shoulders slumping slightly as he gathers his thoughts before speaking again. "You know, these past few weeks—or maybe it’s been months; honestly, I’ve lost track of time, but I’ve been dealing with some intense feelings for Yeonjun. It’s confusing because I know I shouldn’t feel this way, but I really can’t seem to help it. There’s just something about him that brings me so much joy whenever I'm near him. It's like every time we’re together, I feel this overwhelming sense of belonging, as if I’m exactly where I’m meant to be in that moment."As he speaks, a tear escapes the corner of his eye, trailing down his cheek.

Taehyun lets out a deep sigh, his heart heavy with concern, as he wraps his arms around Soobin in a warm, comforting hug. He gazes at the older, feeling a mix of empathy and confusion. Love has never been a priority for Soobin; he often brushed aside the idea. But now, Taehyun can see that things have changed dramatically.
