Jihoon and Seungcheol's relationship is the definition of "couple goals" as per their friends. They rarely fought; their days were filled with so much love and compassion that they don't have time to argue with each other.

But that's the problem, you see. They were too blinded with love that they didn't think about the troubles they might face, which brought them to their current situation right now.

"We're getting farther apart.." Jihoon said with a small voice. His head was bowed down, unable to look at his lover.

Who would've thought a single problem would lead to multiple fights and sleepless nights? Seungcheol wasn't coming home until late, and Jihoon was getting busier with his work. The fights were never resolved due to lack of communications and pride.

"Maybe... maybe we weren't really made for each other, don't you think?" Seungcheol said with a blank expression. His voice was monotonous and he was staring off at space.

Jihoon hummed in agreement, trying his best not to let the tears fall from his eyes. He somehow failed for some tears streamed down but he quickly wiped them away. Seungcheol, on the other hand, saw everything.

"Let's.. end it here."

Seungcheol's breath hitched. He somehow hoped he would hear how they should both fix their relationshp, but his expectation got shattered.

"Oh.. Okay." was the only words Seungcheol could say.

The room fell silent for a few seconds. Nobody dared to speak, until Seungcheol decided to break the silence. "When.. When you get tired from life, when things are hard, come to me. You know I'll always be here, right? You'll always have a special place in my heart."

The younger couldn't help but release a sob when he heard that. "Those were the words I wanted to hear from you before, Cheol.." He said to himself, but he just nodded on the outside.

"Will you.. smile for me again?" Seungcheol went near Jihoon and cupped his face. He made the boy look at him, and oh how he was hurt when he saw the sadness in Jihoon's eyes.

Jihoon forced himself a smile; a sad smile. Seungcheol placed a small kiss on Jihoon's forehead, making the younger close him eyes to relish the moment.

Maybe their friends were wrong when they said that they were the definition of "couple goals".
