"O-okay..." and then jeonghan turned and was about to leave but...
Jisoo couldn't hold himself back... he pulled jeonghan and hugged him tightly. He engulfed him like he's going to lose him anytime soon, which is true.
Yes. Jisoo knows what's wrong with Jeonghan. But he can't tell it to jeonghan. It'll just hurt him even more to see him getting hurt.
"J-jisoo..."
"J-just..." jisoo sighed.
"...let me do this just for once." He continued. But his voice started to crack and started to stutter.
Jeonghan can't just push jisoo away. His brain wanted him to push Jisoo away, but his heart and soul wanted to hug him back.
God knows how much he loves Jisoo. And how Jisoo still loves Jeonghan. Too deep.
While hugging Jisoo, Jeonghan felt something dripping in his shirt in his shoulder, he was about to check what's that dripping, but Jisoo just hugged him deeper.
He can't let Jeonghan see he's crying. He can't let him know that he's weak. He should be strong, just like Jeonghan before.
He regretted all his actions before. But he decided before he fix his issue with Jeonghan, he should fix his issues with his friends first.
'Save the best for last'
Before Jeonghan pulled away, Jisoo wiped his tears quickly.
"Alright. I'll see you the day after tomorrow?" Jisoo asked.
"I'm not sure if I'd be able to come that early. But I'll come back, for sure."
"...doctor hong"
Jeonghan's last words made the both of them chuckle.
He didn't even realize that he was smiling himself. He cleared his throat and looked away.
"Alright. Bye. Take care." Jisoo bid goodbye.
"You too."
As the door closed, jeonghan started to sob. So did jisoo on the other side.
They longed for each other. The moment jisoo hugged jeonghan, jeonghan felt calm. He's at ease whenever jisoo hugged him. The same feeling from before.

Jisoo was in a bar again. Because he felt horrible. He haven't drank a lot yet. He was just drinking little amounts of alcohol. He was just holding the glass in his hand and looking serious ever since."Hey, jisoo!" Aron screamed in his left ear. Jisoo ain't surprised though since Aron has been doing these things befofe.
Jisoo just looked at him and continued to think about how he'll fix things and confess something to his friends without jeonghan knowing.
Aron frowned. "Jisoo isn't like this" he whispered. Actually, he wasn't.
Jisoo's eyes lit up, he stood up and left a curious Aron alone. Sure, Aron's worried, but he knows he gotta give jisoo some personal space. He knows that he's nothing to jisoo since jeonghan came back.
Jisoo tried contacting seungcheol.
Seungcheol declined his call two times, but he finally answered the third time.
[ What do you want ]
"H-hey seungcheol... I jus— can all of us meet at the address I'll send you? Call everybody, excluding Jeonghan. I need to tell you something."
[ After you decide to stay away from jeonghan, sure. ]
"N-no, just hear me out first, please?"
[ why would we agree to your invitation? Why would we accompany you and listen to your bullshit? ]
"Because it's about jeonghan's health."
[ what do you mean? ] his voice started to soften.
"Just come to the address I'll send you."
[ FINE. ]
Call ended.
Jisoo closed his eyes and collapsed in his bed, straight to dreamland.
—
"FINE." After seungcheol agreed, he ended the call quickly and looked at the focused eyes on the phone."You heard it clear, right? Clearly, we have to see him. Anybody wanna go?" Seungcheol's hoping nobody will come.
But they all did. They felt sorry for jisoo, for leaving him all alone, except for seungcheol, who holds grudges. Heavy, heavy grudges.
"Then, go." And seuncheol was about to walk away, but jihoon started to get annoyed and called him with THAT voice. Yes, that scolding voice.
"SEUNGCHEOL." Which made seungcheol stop in his tracks. He sure is two times bigger than jihoon, but he's under him. So yes, he is afraid in his own boyfriend.
Seuncheol just stopped, but didn't look at jihoon.
"If you make another step, you're going to regret it for the rest of your life." Jihoon said with matching sharp eyes.
"Uh, hey jihoon do you want us to go or—"
"STAY. This is not about me, or seungcheol, or anybody in this room. It's about Jeonghan we're talking about. Could you please lower your pride and understand jisoo first? Oh, and before you fucking open your mouth, no I'm not on anybody's side. For pete's sake! I've known you for god-knows-when." Jihoon protested, he was holding back his tears to be honest. Seungcheol knows that Jihoon is just a soft baby.
Seuncheol turned, looking at his teary eyed boyfriend which broke his heart. He dropped his pride and pulled jihoon into a hug.
And with that, jihoon couldn't hold back his tears any longer, he just sobbed in his boyfriend's chest and scolded him once more.
"Shh." And seuncheol continuously rubbed his back and letting him breakdown.
They even forgot that their friend are behind them. Seokmin is crying, and soonyoung is just trying to stop him, but he ain't stopping. This kid really cried at someone else's drama.
Until Chan noticed that he's the only one who doesn't have a special someone. "Seungcheol hyung has jihoon hyung. Jisoo hyung has jeonghan hyung, Junhui hyung has minghao hyung, soonyoung hyung has seokmin hyung, wonwoo hyung has mingyu hyung, seungkwan hyung has hansol hyung. What about me?! What do I have? A FUCKING POTATO???"
"Watch your language. And you're too young for drama shits." Seungcheol managed to scold him while comforting jihoon.
"But—"
"No buts."
Other than that, Seungcheol's just as worried as his friends.
