IN WHICH HE SAW THE HURT IN THE BOY'S EYES !

renjun lay in bed, staring up at the ceiling as donghyuck and chenle scrubbed the floor, trying their best to clean the bloodstained floor.

jungwoo wrapped the boy's wrist in bandages, occasionally making the boy flinch.

everyone decided to come to renjun's house to spend time with the boy. they all knew he needed moral support, they just didnt know... why. they had no idea as to what caused the boy's mental breakdown and they had no intentions to ask him until he had recovered-- or just until he told them.

everyone had arrived-- well not jaemin and jeno. renjun wasnt complaining though, seeing them would only trigger yet another mental breakdown and honestly he doesnt think his body can handle anymore vicious sobbing.

"ok all done," jungwoo said, startling the younger of the two.

"thanks," renjun muttered, smilingly sheepishly before bringing his arm to his chest.

yukhei suddenly bursted into the room, mark trailing behind the taller, "let's watch marley and me."

everyone in the room groaned in disapproval.

"ok hear me out, renjun's sad so what better to do than watch an equally sad movie. negative plus negative equals positive, PEMDAS!'

"he has a point," mark spoke up, gaining a scowl from his boyfriend.

"i don't think-"

"no, it's ok jungwoo, it's my favorite movie" renjun assured the older.

-
the movie had finally reached the end and the room was filled with quiet sobs and small "marley no's" occasionally. all in all, marley's death affected everyone.

as the credits rolled, the lights flickered on revealing a smiling jeno and jaemin.

"crybabies," jeno said, taking a seat on the edge of renjun's bed. luckily for renjun, he was sound asleep, not aware that the couple had arrived.

"ok so who's gonna tell me what happened?"

"w-we don't know," donghyuck replied, avoiding eye contact by searching for another movie.

"h-he relapsed... he's cutting again," jungwoo finally answered, catching jeno by surprise.

"WHAT- why?"

"we don't know," donghyuck repeated, his tone more pained than before.

"we're spending the night here to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid," jisung blurted.

"alright, guys let's try to lighten up the mood a little, i'll make food," jeno sighed, getting up to leave the room. everyone followed except jaemin.

he worried about the boy. he never noticed how the boy had seemed sad over the past few days- he never even thought about all of the pain the boy could possibly be enduring. after all, he spends all of his time with jeno. to be frankly honest mayhaps jaemin had forgotten about the elder.

"jaemin?"

jaemin was yanked out of his thoughts by a rather croaky, yet soft voice. he turned around to see none other than renjun, rubbing the sleep from his eyes while releasing a soft kitten like yawn.

'cute.'

"jaemin i-"

"WE'RE COOKING HOTPOT- RENJUN!" jeno yelled, rushing over to renjun, to smother him with kisses. everyone else ran in hugging renjun, just not the kissing part.

as renjun hugged donghyuck. he and jaemin made eye contact. jaemin saw a glint of something in the older eyes. he saw hurt... pain... he saw heartbreak?
