Hyungwon sighed and set his phone down. He felt bad leaving Wonho alone, he knew the older didn't have friends at school. Neither did he. Hyungwon was avoiding everyone except his little brother Jooheon, who has been going to a therapist for three weeks now. He was so angry that his parents would do this just because Jooheon played with girl toys and wanted to play a girl role in the school play, he was absolutely disgusted by his parents.

"Hyungwonie do mommy and daddy hate me?"

"I think so, but it's okay. I love you with all my heart, I'll get you out of here and you can live with me and my boyfriend one day." Hyungwon whispered into the little boys hair which smelt of strawberries and baby powder, a weird but peaceful mix. He picked the little boy up and decided to take him out. The poor boy has been stuck in the house for a month, his school expelled him which was dumb.

"Hey go get dressed and let's go to the park."

"YAY"

Hyungwon chuckled, went into his room and texted Wonho.

Hyungwonieee
Hey, sorry I've been MIA lately, I'm taking my little brother to the park right now if you want to come.

Idiot
It's okay, and yea I'll go, see you there.

Once Jooheon was ready they started walking downstairs when he saw his parents scowling at him. Hyungwon picked Jooheon up, glaring at his parents.

"Where do you think you're going, he doesn't have an appointment today? The doctors out."

"I'm taking him to the park, he's just a kid and shouldn't be cooped up in this house all day."

"He's sick. He's not fit to go outside, what if he spreads his disease?"

"Please tell me you're joking. He's not sick, now I'm leaving whether you like it or not. Now bye."

Hyungwon ran out before his parents could say anything, or even worse hurt him or Jooheon.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Hyungwon arrived at the park he told Jooheon to go play, and then looked around to see if he could find Wonho.

He saw Wonho waving at him, Hyungwon then walked over and greeted him.

"Hey, long time no see."

"Yea no shit. You okay? People are talking about your little brother at school, more specifically your older brother is talking about him. He said that your little brother is in therapy, he also said your parents are considering sending him to a gay camp. Is that true?

"I don't want to talk about it okay. I'll make sure that never happens though. I love Jooheon with all my heart, I don't even want to imagine a poor 7 year old boy all alone in one of those hell holes. How has school been?"

"It's okay, pretty boring. Oh Pyo and Taeil got together though, they're being really careful so they won't get caught."

"Well that's good. Hopefully it works out well"
(A/N: I forgot to mention that Wonho and Hyungwon ended up getting really close. Neither of them know about the other being gay though, they just know that both of them are really open minded and accepting of people.)

"So how is Jooheon taking all of this?"

"He's confused and afraid that my parents hate him. He thinks they'll give him up for adoption. I just need to wait a couple more years and then I can move out and take him with me so he'll be safe."

"Your family sounds fucking crazy."

"Language. Yes they are."

"Oh sorry, I'm so used to cussing around Shownu I keep forgetting that you hate it."

"Its okay. I should probably go, it's getting late. Ughhh I don't want to get yelled at by my parents."

"Why would they yell at you?"

"They think Jooheon will spread his disease."

"What disease? How is wanting to be a girl a disease?"

"I don't know, well bye."

"Bye, you going to school tomorrow?"

"Yea maybe."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mom, Dad we're home."

"Hyungwon please come into the kitchen we need to talk." Hyungwon didn't like how emotionless his father sounded.

Hyungwon told Jooheon to go into the play room and then walked into the kitchen.

"You wanted to talk to me"

"Hyungwon you deliberately disobeyed us when we told you Jooheon can't leave. We don't trust Jooheon staying here, because who knows if you'll take him out other times and risk him corrupting the other children, so we decided to have him live with his Aunt for now. She'll set him straight and will make sure he won't spread his disease. I want you to help him pack his things."

"Y-your joking r-right?" Hyungwon felt a lump grow in his throat.

"No we're not, now go and do as your told."

You guys are sick absolute monsters"

"Hyungwon we have a little girl to look after, he could infect her."

"YOU G-GUYS ARE HORRIBLE. JOOHEON IS YOUR SON, YOUR FREAKING SON. HOW COULD YOU?" Hyungwon let the hot salty tears that were welling up in his eyes fall.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU DISRESPECTFUL LITTLE SHIT." His father picked Hyungwon up by the collar and was about to punch him when his mother stopped his father.

"Honey stop, just because you hit him won't mean he'll listen"

His father sighs and let's go of Hyungwon which led to him falling.

"I-I hate you guys."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hyungwon took Jooheon into his room and told the little boy the horrible news. Jooheon started crying and shaking, Hyungwon took the little boy into his arms and started to rub his back.

"I'm so sorry this is happening to you"

Jooheon ended up crying himself to sleep in Hyungwons arms.

"I'm so sorry"

A/N: So the ending to this was depressing. I'm sorry. I only have two weeks left of school which means final exams so I'm sorry if I don't update and if I do the update is really short and bad. I hope you all do well on your final exams and have an amazing day. I love you all bbs <3
