Youngjae chased after Jackson as he shouted his name and he saw Jackson going in the direction of the house and he knew once Jackson entered his room, he won't come out.

"Jackson, please stop." Youngjae said as his pace began reducing.

Jackson stopped in front of the door and tried to open it but then remembered that the door was locked and he wasn't with the key. He slid down the door with his knees pulled up as he put his face between his knees, wrapping his hands around his knee and cried.

Youngjae finally got home, wondering why Jackson didn't go inside but then remembering neither of them grabbed their bags. He sat down on the floor close to him and pulled Jackson into a hug, making Jackson raise his head and placed his face his the crook of Youngjae's neck, taking in his vanilla scent.

"Its fine. Everything fine, I promise." Youngjae said rubbing his back, soothingly.

Jackson just kept on crying without saying anything and Youngjae just sat there, rubbing his back and whispering sweet nothings to him.

It took another 20 minutes before Jackson was just hiccuping and sniffing. He shifted away from Youngjae and used his palm to clean his face.

"Are you okay now?" Youngjae asked as Jackson nodded. "What happened? I mean we just got to the coffeeshop, Mark called Rose and ordered something, she begged you to help her take it and 5 mins later you came running out of the locker room, crying. Did Mark tell you something?"

Jackson shook his head.

"Did he touch you?" He asked and Jackson shook his head again.

"Then what ha-"

"Bambam was in there." Jackson said as Youngjae's mouth flew open.

"Oh." He said.

"I missed him so much, Jae." Jackson said as fresh tears began pouring out. "So so much that it hurts."

"I know you do, Jacks." Youngjae said patting his shoulder. "I know."

"He told he he still loves me but he loves Yugyeom more. He told me to wait and then he does this?" Jackson asked. "What normal person does that?"

"Most people. Jackson, Bambam is a very nice guy."

"I know that." Jackson said. "He's so sweet and innocent. He acts so naive some times and it just adds to his adorableness. Sometimes I just stare at him and he grateful to God that he's mine." Jackson said as Youngjae just watched him.

"You must really love him." Youngjae said.

"I love him so much, I don't think anyone could ever replace him." Jackson said honestly. "I think I'd just go back home."

"Home? To Busan?" Youngjae asked ad Jackson nodded, making Youngjae's eyes widen.

"Since I came here to forget about Bambam, but seems like he's going to be everywhere I go." Jackson said

"Jackson, it took you a whole one month before you saw him. He's a model, he's always travelling. You can't go back." Youngjae pleaded. "Please, Jacks."

"I want him back, Jae." Jackson said. "I want him so much."

"Let him go, Jackson. Yugyeom is a wonderful person, he doesn't deserve to get hurt."

"And I do? I'm a bad person that deserves to get hurt?"

"No!" Youngjae said quickly. "Of course not. Jacks, sometimes bad things happen to good people. Its life, you just have to move on."

"Argh!" Jackson shouted as he rested his head on his palms.

"You're a good guy Jackson. You'll find someone that truly deserves you, I promise." Youngjae said ss he hugged Jackson, resting his head on his shoulder and Jackson resting his head on Youngjae's head.

Youngjae got to the coffeeshop and began receiving questions from his colleagues about Jackson. He just smiled at them and told them he was just a little sick.

"I know something happened in here with Mark and Bambam." Rose said when Youngjae went into the locker room.

"Uh..." Youngjae trailed off. "He's fine now." Youngjae said packing his and Jackson's bags.

"What happened??" Rose pressed on.

"Rose, I'll explain everything to you later. I just need to get home and take care of Jackson." Youngjae said as she nodded.

"Make sure you call me tonight." She said as Youngjae nodded.

"Where's Mark hyung?" He asked.

"I think he's in Jaebum oppa's office. I mean, I saw him going towards that direction." Rose said ad Youngjae nodded.

"I'll just go see them." Youngjae said as went to Jaebum's office.

He knocked on the door.

"Yeah? Come in." He heard Jb reply.

He twisted the handle and entered, seeing both Mark and Jaebum.

"Oh, Youngjae. Just the guy I want to see." Jaebum said.

"Anneyong hyung." Youngjae said as he walked close to the desk.

"Have a seat." Jb said as Youngjae said beside Mark.

"How's Jackson? Is he okay? Where's he?" Mark blurted out curiously.

"Mark, take it easy I'm sure he's fine." Jb said. "Youngjae, hows he doing?"

"Uh, not so good. He's too hurt. He wants to go back to Busan." Youngjae said as Mark immediately stood up.

"What? He wants to go back to Busan? Why? He can't do that." Mark said angrily. "Let me see him, please."

"Hyung, I don't think that's a good idea." Youngjae said.

"Mark, Youngjae's right. Jackson needs to rest for a while." Jb said. "Youngjae, I want you to make sure Jackson is fine. Make sure he doesn't leave Seoul. Take the rest of the week off and stay with him since today's Wednesday. I'll come over on Friday after work to see him."

"Deh, hyung. Komawo." Youngjae said.

"Grab some slices of cake on your way out." Mark said. "Make sure he's not out of your sight so he won't do anything stupid." Mark added as Youngjae nodded.

"Komawo, hyung. Jinjja komawo." He said gratefully. "I'll be on my way."

"Take care." Jaebum said.

"Deh." Youngjae said as he left.

Mark's head fell as he fiddled with his fingers that were on the desk.

"You really care about him, right?" Jaebum asked as Mark's head snapped up.

"He's your employee, I care for him like the others." Mark said sharply making Jb chuckle.

"Mark, you've been single for quiet a while." Jaebum said as Mark bit his lips and looked down.

"Hyung, you know why I can't date. Not after what happened with Taehyung." Mark said sadly.

"Araso." Jaebum sighed. "Go see what's going on out there."

"Deh." Mark said as he stood up.

"Don't think too much about Jackson. He'll be fine." Jaebum said as Mark nodded before leaving the office.
