7 | "ming is concerned"

ming put his phone down and looked around the area for a sign of his best friend, yet there was nothing. he texted and called him, no answers, he almost called the police at one point, until he finally sees the man limp over to him and he stood quickly, concerned about the health of wayo, "what the hell is up with you? you're limping! are you okay!? why didn't you answer your fucking phone, dumbass!?"

wayo was being bombarded with questions, though he dreaded it, he wanted to sit down first, "first of all, shut the fuck up and i'll tell you everything. sit down." he ordered as he did the same, "so, i'm not a virgin anymore."

"ah, that's why you're limping," ming smirked, wiggling his eyebrows, "good for you, how was it?"

"amazing, i see why you do it with kit all the time after school!" wayo said, ming widened his eyes how much did wayo know before them actually making out in front of him, the younger watched ming's expression changed but shook it off as he continued to speak, "we did it again this morning, but it was harder than last night."

"did he hurt you?" ming asked and wayo laughed.

"i like it like that, i never knew i'd be into that stuff, also, kit's advice worked. phana likes for me to call him doctor instead of daddy though," wayo blushed and lowered his voice, "he's huge."

"oh my god, speaking of the devil." ming mumbled, looking over to see beam, phana, and kit walk over to their table, he smiled at kit who only bid him a quick nod, which was unusual because kit would either smile along with his signature eye roll or he'd wink at him. he seemed out of in, like in deep thought. knowing kit, he'd mostly likely have to wait until they got back to the dorms.

kit sat next to ming and forced a smile, "hi." he said softly.

ming looked at kit worriedly, "hi? that's all?"

kit bit his lip nervously and shrugged, this wasn't him at all, "what else is there to say?"

"call me a loser, tell me to fix my hair or something," ming said and kit looked down to his lap, the younger worriedly looked over to phana and beam for help, instead of looking concerned like he did, they looked sympathetic.

wayo began to look concerned as well as kit wasn't swearing at anyone, making smart remarks, he hasn't even touched his food aside from putting the container on the table. ming didn't know how to approach the situation, it was a hit or miss, either you could get an answer from him or not. when he meant no he really meant it, "are you going to at least eat?"

"i'm not hungry." kit sighed, ming looked towards everyone else before standing up and gently took kit's hand in his before getting up and walking away to his car, "what are you doing?"

"kit, you're always hungry, what's wrong? did you get a bad grade or something?" ming asked opening the car door to the backseat and sliding in with ming following after, "talk to me, baby, i don't like seeing you upset."

kit looked down, "i uh.." he began fiddling with his fingers, he closed his eyes and shook his head, "i can't."

"talk to me," ming said softly, "please."

"i fucking can't, ming," kit said as he looked at his lover a heavy silence settling inside the car, "..we should go." he mumbled.

"is it your ex?" ming questioned, the look on kit's face spoke volumes when he didn't. ming wanted to comfort him, hold his hand, just something that could prove to him that he was here for him whether he wanted it or not.

"how do you know about my ex?" kit asked, "who told you?"

"you did," ming said, it only took him a second to realize that kit was drunk the night he told him about him, "fuck. you weren't sober."

it was a late saturday night, ming had just got a call from beam to get kit from a party, though it was late and he was tired he couldn't blow off kit especially in a time if need. he agreed to pick him up and went to the location that was sent to him.

for a split second, it didn't seem like kit was drunk, he seemed more upset than drunk yet he had a slight stumble in his walk and his words were slurred. ming decided to let him chill out until he was back in his dorm. his hair was disheveled, clothes wrinkling and eyes droopy.

"you don't seem like you just came from a party." ming spoke, kit just shrugged and looked out the window.

"wasn't all that good anyway, my ex was there." kit sighed as he rubbed his face with a pout, ming glanced at him and hummed curiously.

"what's up with him? he an asshole? cheater?"

kit chuckled dryly, "oh, man, is he," he sighed, "he didn't even like me, he claims he's not even into guys, but the things he did with me were too gay to be classified as straight."

"too gay to be classified as straight," ming mumbled under his breath for comic relief and something to tease kit about later. he looked over to kit again, the elder had an obvious mannerism for when he was upset, he fiddled with his fingers furiously, it couldn't go unnoticed, "okay, so, he dissed you."

"i was just a play thing," kit said, "not even in the good way, "i was queer baited throughout our whole relationship to the point where i didn't even know if we were truly together or not, he cheated on me, blamed me for it, and tried to drug me."

"oh my fucking god, i'm gonna fuck him up,can i turn around?"

kit touched his arm, "please don't, i just want you right now, please." ming couldn't disobey what the elder wanted, his health and well being was more important than anything. ming was going to be there for kit, no matter what. he will be there to the very end.

"oh my god." kit sighed, grabbing his bag and getting out the car, ming widened his eyes as he ran after him.

"kit!" he called out, grabbing the man's arm and holding him back, "what's up? what's wrong?"

"please let me go," kit said softly, startled by getting snatched back closer to the younger, "ming!"

"i want to help, talk to me." ming said, trying to look into the elder's eyes, but his gaze was avoided.

kit shook his head, "i didn't want to tell you for a reason!" kit said, snatching away from him and stepping back, "can you stay out of this? please?"

"babe, i just want to be there for you!" ming said, grabbing a hold of kit's hand again before he was pushed back, he just stood still as kit snatched his hand away again.

"be there for me from a distance, don't follow me." was all kit said before walking away from him, not even sparing him a glance, not even hesitating to walk away from them. the brunette sighed and looked over to the others to see them looking on, almost unsure of how to react.
