Liar | Yeongyu

30. Bones

Yeonjun woke up to his parents yelling his name. He groaned and rubbed his eyes, climbing out of the bed. The sunlight shining in his eyes from his opened window. He left his room and made his way downstairs seeing his parents waiting for him.

"What's going on?"

"Go get ready. We're on our way to sign a contract with Beoha and Sangchul." Sijun said. "You finally made yourself useful. Hurry up."

Yeonjun hesitated and went upstairs to get ready. It was officially the day. Two months of being with Beomgyu to finally get him the contract that they wanted. He took a shower and they drove over to Beoh's and Sangchul's office building. They went up to the top floor and met them in the conference room.

Beomgyu and his parents were already there waiting for them.

"Good morning, so glad you two could make it." Sangchul said as they all bowed to each other.

They all sat down, Yeonjun and his family on one side and Beomgyu and his parents on the other. They talked but Yeonjun wasn't listening, his ears rang as he watched them slide the paper over to his parents. This was wrong, his mouth was dry, he felt his palms starting to moist with sweat.

He needed to say something.

He started to open his mouth but met eyes with Beomgyu who was smiling happily at him.

"Are you okay?" He mouthed to him silently across the table.

Yeonjun swallowed and nodded. He didn't say anything.

Days later they had their celebration at a dancehall for their new partnership. Beomgyu wore a fitted white suite while Yeonjun wore a black one. They arrived together, Beomgyu's arm resting gently on his. Yeonjun's parents made a toast, something half-hearted and full with lies like their entire personality. He hate them. They clapped and drank champagne, it didn't take long for the music to start, a few people danced while others stood and talked.

Beomgyu's parents danced together. Yeonjun watched the go of them, Beoha always smiled at her husband with such genuine love in her eyes. Beomgyu might not have gotten along with them but unlike Yeonjun's parents it was always clear to him that they love their son and each other. While he looked at his parents and saw them standing next to each other and watching everyone else like strangers.

"Hyung?"

He snapped out of his thoughts and looked Beomgyu who was staring at him.

"Are you alright? You seem distracted."

"Sorry, this is just a lot...our parents are business partners."

Beomgyu hummed. "Yeah, I never would've imagined that happening but this is good. I like that our families will be close." He sipped his drink and looked around. "Should we dance?"

"...yeah." They walked out on the dance floor. They stood in front of each other, one hand holding his and the other rested on his waist while Beomgyu's other hand rested on his shoulder.

"You look very handsome."

"And you look very beautiful. I love the way this suit looks on you."

"It's hard to move in it." He laughed. "My mom got it altered without me being there so it feels kinda small."

"You're beautiful."

Beomgyu blushed heavily. "Thank you hyung."

Yeonjun continued to stare at him, all of this left him feeling weird. His parents got what they wanted at the cost of others like they always did.

"Can I ask you something?" Yeonjun said.

"Of course."

"If...if you met someone and you both got along really well but they lied to you about something in your relationship. Would you forgive them?"

Beomgyu thought about it. "It depends. I feel like with relationships that I've built like with Hueningkai and Soobin, it would be hard for me to stay mad at them, but it also depends on the lie. Why do you ask?"

"...Taehyun and I...we got into a fight. I'm a little unsure on what to do."

"I'm sorry to hear that. I think you two can work it out, you two are like brothers. Give it time and maybe you'll be in a place where you can talk." He kissed his cheek. "It's a night of celebration, don't think about it to much I hate seeing you upset."

"Thank you baby." He held him close and let out a deep sigh. They kept dancing, slowly swaying to the gentle piano music that played in the background.

After a while Yeonjun had to use the bathroom.

"I'll be right back, I have to use that bathroom." He kissed his cheek.

"I'll get us snacks, I'm getting hungry."

"Okay baby." He walked away and went to the bathrooom. He took a few minutes, used the bathroom, splashed water on his face, and took a few deep breaths. He felt hot, like he was suffocating but what he was keeping from him was trying to claw its way out.

"Keep it together. It's not even a big deal." He whispered before stepping out of the bathroom. He walked out and went to find him but didn't see him on the dance floor or at the snack bar. He continued walking around looking for him and when he finally saw him he felt like throwing up.

He was standing off to the side near the windows, but Yeji was with him.
