Can You Hear Me? [B.A.P Fanfiction]

Enchanted

Despite them being labelled as "boyfriends" nothing really changed between the two. They're little dates were a little more sparse than a few months ago when they had gone to the zoo.

Junhong and Yongguk still mainly communicated via text since that was the only way the two would be able to fully disclose their thoughts in a healthy way. Otherwise there'd be too many misunderstandings.

Junhong often overthought things and when he overanalyzed Yongguk's actions or facial expressions he'd get upset. Yongguk on the other hand often thought too hard about how to act around Junhong, taking his disability into consideration and most of the time Junhong wasn't even paying attention.

They were 4 months into their relationship and everything was going relatively well. Yongguk would join Junhong for dinner sometimes and he'd compliment his lover on the improvement of his skills.

One night whilst Junhong was sitting on his couch watching a movie he felt a vibration in his pocket. He was delighted to see a text message from Yongguk, because although no one else texted him he'd be disappointed if it was another advertisement.

From: Yongguk

To: Junhong

Junhong-ah, my company is holding a corporate party on Thursday, would you be interested in going as my date?

Junhong thinks about it for a moment. Yongguk was a composer, meaning the people at the party would be none other than musicians or composers alike as well as wealthy adults who enjoyed music.

He could imagine a serene ball room, one side covered in fancy tables topped with glass decorations and expensive food. While the other held a band and a fantastic dance floor where the people of the company could celebrate with their music.

He also thought of standing by Yongguk's side, standing tall and proud as the man's lover but he knew he couldn't do it. Not when musicians would openly question him whether music was of interest to him despite being deaf.

He could feel the pity and empathy and frankly he didn't even want to risk going through that. As much as he wanted to go and support Yongguk, he knew he wouldn't be able to do it.

It would only result in him becoming upset and Yongguk apologizing about the whole situation and it was something Junhong wanted to avoid if possible. He unlocked his phone once more and began typing a reply to Yongguk.

From: Junhong

To: Yongguk

I'm sorry hyung, I don't think I should go. I just don't feel comfortable about it.

From: Yongguk

To: Junhong

Of course baby, it's okay. I'm glad you told me honestly rather than forcing yourself.

From: Yongguk

To: Junhong

Unfortunately, it's something I can't skip out on. So I'll have to text you throughout to keep me company

Junhong smiles widely at the thought of Yongguk's cheeky smile and he nods to himself, his eyes trying not to stare at the pet name Yongguk had used. The elder was becoming much more affectionate with him and it was sweet and all but there was only so much his heart could take.

A little part of him felt sad that Yongguk would be attending all alone but the elder was bound to have some kind of friends there right? It wasn't like a composer worked all alone after all, he worked with his artists as well.
