"I had a weird dream the other night. It's actually a recurring dream..." Minho said after swallowing his pizza. He prepared to take another bite. But then Caleb inquired,

"What's this dream about?"

Minho kind of considered coming up with a lie. But he had to come clean.

Maybe talking about the dream would make it go away.

Besides, he didn't have to tell the younger that he was victims in his dream. Or moreso nightmare.

"Well, I keep having this dream that I killed this guy. I see the guy's face towards the end of the dream. And after I see his face, someone kills me. But before I die, I wake up."

Caleb nodded, taking a sip of his Sprite. "Hm. Trippy. Who's the victim?"

"I don't recognise the face."

"I see..." Would Caleb bring up the fact that he had a similar recurring dream? A dream where he dies at the hands of Minho every time.

But before he actually dies, Minho gets killed?

He never sees who killed the older. Because he wakes up before the dream gets to the juicy part.

But the dream is still a little unsettling nonetheless.

He didn't know why he had this dream.

He hadn't had a real dream since he had been diagnosed.

Even way before then, actually.

But now all the sudden, about a few months before he met Minho, he begins to have this dream.

Before, his murderer had been a faceless man. And upon meeting Minho, the older's face had been the face of his murder in his dreams.

But who was his murder's murder?

"That doesn't make me seem a little off, does it?" Minho enquired.

He didn't really talk about personal stuff seeing as though ... well ... it was personal. But he figured that since he and Caleb were a thing, he should open up even more.

Minho didn't have to deal with his problems alone. And Caleb had let the older know that the morning following Valentine's day.

A few minutes after accepting his proposal.

Caleb had been a bit hesitant to accept his proposal. He kept saying stuff like, 'you don't want to date a crazy bat like me,' and 'I'd just get in your way. After you learn more about me, you won't like me...' and some other stuff to keep Minho from persisting.

But the older was very adamant on getting with Caleb. He had told the younger about the feelings he had for him. And how he just wanted to date him.

If the relationship didn't last, that's okay. At least they could say they tried.

And that was how they ended up passing the one month mark of dating.

Minho still didn't know why Caleb was very set on staying single.

Especially because the other was very affectionate. He loved to cuddle. And kiss. And be touched.

And touch.

Of course he had his days when he'd be off and not want anything to do with Minho.

But majority of the time, he was very relaxed and affectionate.

"Thank you for sharing with me." The older smiled a little.

He did that more.

He was a sucker for affection, as stated before.

Turns out he just needed a little love and affection to turn his frown upside down.
