Wonwoo was about to fall asleep when he heard numerous knocks on the front door.

"Is that Mingyu? Figured he wasn't coming." Wonwoo muttered to himself as he walked downstairs.

The second Wonwoo opened the door, Mingyu nearly flew into an embrace in his arms.

"Gyu? What's wrong? Shit, are you- what the hell? Here, step in the house." Wonwoo panicked as the male began crying into the tight hug.

"Shhh it's okay. Whatever it was, don't worry about it. You aren't there anymore." Wonwoo spoke as the two made it inside and on the couch.

Mingyu sat down on the couch, but pulled Wonwoo onto his lap as he continued sobbing with his arms around Wonwoo's waist.

"Gyu, please. I hate seeing you like this. What happened, baby?" Wonwoo asked, cupping Mingyu's face with his hands and wiping the male's tears.

"M-my parents. They let a really shitty person in the house. I hate what he did to me, b-but they're hanging out with him like nothing happened!" Mingyu admitted.

"Shit. What the hell? Why the hell would they-" Wonwoo was cut off by a kiss, which felt...wrong, considering the moment.

So Wonwoo broke the kiss.

"Fuck- fuck I'm sorry! I just- I can't do this, Wonwoo!" Mingyu yelled.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Wonwoo asked.

"I'm turning into him! I'm using people just for their bodies, Wonwoo! What if you didn't pull away? I wouldn't have stopped!" Mingyu yelled.

"Gyu, you aren't that type of person. I didn't pull away because I was scared of you or anything like that. I trust you more than anyone. I pulled away because you aren't in the right state of mind, okay? That would be me taking advantage of you." Wonwoo explained.

"I'm sorry." Mingyu said while sniffling.

"There's no reason to apologize." Wonwoo said, Mingyu hugging him tightly.

"Let's go to bed, Gyu. I think some sleep would be good for you. And let's skip school tomorrow. You need rest. We can talk more in the morning." Wonwoo said, Mingyu nodding as the two got up from the couch.

"Wanna take a bath or something before you sleep?" Wonwoo asked, Mingyu shaking his head.

"Okay, that's fine. Come on." Wonwoo said as they went upstairs to his room.

Once there, Mingyu quickly changed into his night clothes and got in the bed.

"Goodnight, Gyu. I hope you feel better in the morning." Wonwoo said, pecking the male on the cheek before turning off the lights and slipping into bed as well.

"Can we cuddle?" Mingyu asked, him and Wonwoo on the far sides of the bed.

"Of course." Wonwoo said, Mingyu nodding and hugging the male tightly.

"Thank you. I love you, Wonwoo." Mingyu muttered out before falling asleep.

I love you? HUH? Like in a platonic way, right? Not romantically? No, Wonwoo! Not the time! Mingyu just came here dealing with a lot, and you're thinking about an I love you!? I should be ashamed of myself. Wonwoo thought, shaking everything off before eventually falling asleep as well.

The next morning, Mingyu woke up with Wonwoo nuzzled in his chest, and their fingers intertwined.

He felt bad for not sharing hardly any information with Wonwoo, but he didn't want the male to view him any differently. He didn't need Wonwoo to be delicate with him and pity him and treat him like a victim. He would rather have things stay the same.
