3; cinema?

"Hyung~ Please come to the cinema with me this afternoon! You can bring Haneul and I bring Sungmi and we can make it a double date! Please~", a very good-looking male was tugging at Seonghwa's sleeve, begging for him to join him in the cinema. Seonghwa looked at the younger. "I don't want to", he simply stated and tried walking off. "Hyuunng~!", the blonde was still holding onto his arm. "San~", Seonghwa mocked his best - and only - friends voice. Latter looked at him and started pouting. He even tried to make tears appear in his eyes. Seonghwa couldn't take it anymore: "Okay, okay! I'll come with you. But no double date! Haneul and I aren't on the best terms right now..." "Just dump her already! You don't have feelings for her, you guys always fight, but you're still together. Why?" Seonghwa just rolled his eyes. "I can't break up with her." "Why not?", San looked at the older confused. "I just can't, okay? Lunch break is over, get to class!", Seonghwa snapped and walked away. San followed him. "It's okay, calm down hyung. But remember: When something's bothering you, you can always come talk to me, okay?" Seonghwa just shrugged and kept walking to class.

On the outside he seemed absolutely unbothered. He made it seem as if his friend's words meant nothing to him, but deep inside Seonghwa was happy. Happy that he had at least one friend who he could rely on. He never had anyone except San. The two of them knew each other for as long as they could remember. Their families were friends for ages and because they gave birth to their sons around the same time the two were with each other all the time even as babies.

San could still remember what Seonghwa was like in the past. He wasn't always the cold and unfriendly guy he was now. He would smile all the time, would have endless fun with San and he had many friends. He was always cheerful. But after all that shit had happened to him he shut out everyone, even San sometimes, he never smiled and he never showed any feelings whatsoever. Just his cold poker face on display all day every day. San knew the reasons for that and he knew that he should never tell anyone about it. But what he didn't know about his best friend, was the reason why he couldn't break up with Haneul. Seonghwa made sure to keep that a secret.
