Sanghyuk's POV
"Hakyeon!! Please, please get up off the floor! You're going to cut yourself!" I exclaimed.

Did Hongbin not know that Taekwoon was in prison? I mean, if he did, that was a pretty stupid question to ask.

"What happened?? Hakyeon, I'm so sorry!" Hongbin apologized.

Hongbin and I both helped the sobbing Hakyeon off the floor, and brought him over to the couch. The shattered glass was all over the kitchen floor, and someone had to clean it up.

"Hongbin, you stay here and calm Hakyeon down. I'll clean the kitchen up." I told him.

I grabbed the broom and dustpan from the front closet, and started to sweep the glass up from the floor.

Hongbin's POV
When Sanghyuk left Hakyeon and I, I rubbed Hakyeon's back. He was still crying, but he was taking deep breaths and he was trying to relax himself.

"Hakyeon, I'm so sorry for asking-"

"It's fine Hongbin, you didn't know." He said to me, wiping his face.

"I didn't know what?" I asked him.

What did he not tell me?

"Taekwoon isn't here because..." He took in a deep breath, then exhaled. "... He's in prison."

"PRISON? WHAT THE HECK?" I yelled at him.

"He's a suspect of some murder, and they had to take him in for questioning and whatnot... I'm not fully sure about all the details, but he's gone!" Hakyeon started to crying again. His hands covered his face, but you could still hear his cries calling out for Taekwoon.

"Ssh... It'll be alright Hakyeon." I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him into a tight hug once more.

"He's gone Hongbin!! A-And I don't know when he'll even come back!!" He mumbled.

"Hakyeon, Taekwoon is a strong guy. He'll take care of himself, and he'll be back home soon. It's just going to take some time, okay?" I pushed away from the hug and looked at his teary face.

Just then Sanghyuk had walked in, and just looked at us. There was a look in his eyes, but I couldn't tell if he was happy or sad.

"Hongbin's right. Taekwoon will be home soon." Sanghyuk came over and sat down beside Hakyeon.

He wrapped his arms around Hakyeon, and smiled.

Then suddenly Hakyeon started laughing.

"Oh? Why are you laughing Hakyeon?" I asked him.

"THE PIZZA'S GETTING COLD!!!" He changed the subject.

"Oh Hakyeon..." I started saying, then we all started laughing.

"I'll get you all some slices. Be back in a jiffy!!" Hakyeon said, then got up off the couch and headed back into the kitchen.

"So Hongbin..." Sanghyuk said awkwardly.

"You have a cute smile, you know that?" I complimented him.

It was the truth!! He did have a cute smile!

"I- thank you..." He said embarrassedly.

I pinched his cheeks, but tried fighting me back. He tried pushing away, but I wouldn't let him win. Soon enough, after all the pushing and shoving, he fell over and well... so did I.

Hakyeon walked back into the room, carrying a few plates with pizza slices on them. I could see him face and he was smiling very evilly.

"HONGBIN!!! GET OFF OF ME!!!" Sanghyuk laughed, not noticing that Hakyeon was looking at at us.

I quickly got up and looked down at the floor. I made no eye contact with anyone, and I made no sound.

"So um, hope I wasn't disturbing anything." Hakyeon laughed, then put the plates on the table.

"OH! Um... NO!! You weren't disturbing anything!!" Sanghyuk blushed, then went to the table to grab a plate of pizza.

"Whatever Sanghyuk..." Hakyeon rolled his eyes, then went back to the kitchen to grab himself some pizza.

"S-Sorry about that..." I said to Sanghyuk, then I got the other plate of pizza.

"It's fine, I'll just get you back later." He smirked, and took a bite of his pizza.

When Hakyeon came back with his pizza, the three of us sat down on the couch and Hakyeon turned the turn television on.

"So what do you all want to talk about?" Hakyeon asked us.

Taekwoon's POV
After the visit with Hakyeon and Sanghyuk, Jiseong came in to take me back to my cell. Wonshik was waiting on the bed, laying down as usual.

"Thanks Jiseong." I said, then he nodded and left. "So Wonshik? What are you humming to yourself now?"

"Just a song... Hakyeon came right?" He asked.

"Yes." I told him.

For some reason, Wonshik's been on my mind recently, and not Hakyeon. I love Hakyeon, but everytime I think of him, Wonshik always pops into my mind. I wonder why that is...

"Hey, you spacing out?" Wonshik asked me, and clapped his hands in front of my face.

"Oh, yeah I was." I awkwardly responded.

"Ah... So when can I meet him?" He asked me, then hopped of his bunk and came to sit down on mine.

"Don't you have better things to do then ask me about Hakyeon?" I joked around.

"Whatever Taekwoon..." He rolled his eyes at me, and ruffled my hair.

"Hey! Don't touch my hair!!! Otherwise I'll have to start tickling you again!!" I told him.

"NO! ANYTHING BUT THAT!" He laughed, then put his arms up, pretending like he was surrendering.

I started laughing with him, then turned away. Is this right?

While I was thinking to myself, I had no clue that he was gong to tickle me, then he put his hands on me and I burst out laughing.

"WONSHIK!!!" I laughed.

"HAHAHAHA!!! IT'S PAYBACK TIME!!" He laughed maniacally.

We were both having fun laughing with each other. It was great to have someone whom I could laugh with and play with, even though I'm in a gloomy place such as this.

"HEY! SHUT THE HELL UP!" Another prisoner yelled. "STOP HAVING SEX!"

"Ugh..." Wonshik groaned, then stopped tickling me. "MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS! AND WE AREN'T EVEN DOING THAT, SO LEAVE US ALONE" Wonshik yelled back.

"Wow Wonshik, I'm impressed." I told him.

He looked at me puzzled. "What do you mean?"

"You didn't swear at them. I think you're becoming a nicer person." Then I smiled at him.

"Heh... I hope that's the truth." He somewhat smiled back at me, then went back to his top bunk.
