changbin sighs as he sits on the couch. hearing all the chatter and different things being moved around.

he fiddles with his fingers, feeling anxious to go out for this interview the group was doing.

he had gotten his make up done and changed into the clothes the stylist had agreed on.

now he was waiting for everyone to finish getting ready.

he felt the couch dip next to him and a pair of hands grabbing onto his.

his anxious fiddling stopped and comfort filled him.

"you okay?"

changbin slightly turned his head to the voice, smiling softly as he recognized his boyfriends voice.

"not really.. i'm nervous."

chan gave a gentle squeeze of comfort, placing a soft kiss on the side of changbins head.

"i know. you'll be great though and i'll be by your side to help answer any questions, okay?"

changbin nods slowly, still feeling a bit uneasy.

"you guys ready?" their manager asks.

"yeah we are. ready changbin?"

"yes.."

they stand up from the couch, their manager gives a pat to changbins back and reassuring that he was going to do great out there.

the group had stepped out of the dressing rooms, going to the set and taking seats.

in the front row it was; chan, changbin, seungmin and hyunjin.

the second row was; minho, jisung, jeongin and felix.

"everyone ready?" the director asks as the interviewer was also getting seated.

everyone said yes and the cameras started rolling.

the interview was going great, the host made everyone comfortable and joked around with the group.

the ending was coming soon, but the host had a last question.

"now changbin, may i ask, how do you deal with being visually impaired?"

the group fell silent, glancing over at changbin and watching his face fall.

chan can tell he doesn't know how to answer it, seeing his eyes becoming glossy and his leg bouncing.

"uh well changbin deals with it perfectly fine. we accommodate with him, yes, there will be a few problems but we always manage and make it work.

changbin swallows the lump that formed in his throat, nodding at chans words in agreement.

"yeah, and his stage presence is still cool!" jisung adds, patting the others shoulder and giving a gentle comforting squeeze.

the host gives a small smile, understanding that the question possibly made the rapper uncomfortable, but unfortunately they had to ask due to their boss.

they ended the interview, the cameras shutting off and everyone that helped out thanking stray kids and stray kids thanking them for their hard work.

they were soon back at the dorms. everyone doing their own things, like watching tv or taking naps.

changbin had went to his and chans room, changing into some sweats and a hoodie, grabbing a book and getting comfortable in the bed.

he was focused on his book, he didn't hear the bedroom door opening and chan walking in.

he felt the bed dip and a hand on his thigh.

"hey you okay? i know the last question was uncomfortable for you.." chan asked softly.

changbin stopped his reading, letting out a upset sigh, "it's just still hard to answer those types of questions and not only that,, but i'm tired of being asked about my blindness..."

chan can somewhat understand. every interview they've had since they've started has always asked the same questions over and over.

and every time, changbin gets a bit choked up because he doesn't know how to answer it.

there were no words that can describe how it was living being blind and being in a growing successful kpop group.

"i understand.."

"but do you?" changbin snaps, he slightly turned his head where the direction of chans voice was coming from.

chan was a bit taken aback, "i may not FULLY understand what it's like living in your shoes, that's fair... but changbin, i understand how the questions can make you feel uncomfortable and upset. do you think i enjoy hearing them?"

changbin just felt overwhelmed with everything. he couldn't help but just cry.

he covered his face and let the hot tears roll down.

chan quickly hugged the younger. pulling him onto his lap and rubbing soothing circles on his back.

"i just don't always want to be known as 'the blind idol'. i want to be known as more! as someone due to my talents..."

chan continues to rub soothing circles, "i know... i know. we just need to continue pushing forward with our paths. outshine your talents so everyone won't just know you as the blind idol."

changbin continues to cry, his tears slowing down and just letting out sniffles, still holding onto chan.

"come on, let's get ready to sleep." chan says quietly, adjusting them to lay down fully on the bed.

changbin hiccuping and having sniffles, chan wiping away any stray tears that escaped his eyes.

"i love you... i'm sorry that you go through this with every interview and every interaction. i know it stresses you out and makes you anxious."

changbin feels around chans face, trying to find his cheek to place his hand on it.

"thank you.. i love you too."

chan pulls changbin closer to him, their legs tangling up but in a comfortable way.

changbin buried his face into chans chest, feeling tired from the day and the small crying session.

chan kissed the top of changbins head, "sleep well baby,,"

changbin hummed, "you too."

soon sleep drifting over them. the day becoming the past.
