WOOYOUNG;

san had left the room after he told seonghwa to take wooyoung to 'the cell.' so, the two just stared at each other. seonghwa's eyes filled with guilt while wooyoung's with surprise and confusion.

"uh... fancy meeting you here," wooyoung tried.

seonghwa sighed in response and walked up to him; grabbing his arm and attempting to gently drag him to their destination. wooyoung complied for the most part, and just let seonghwa take him to this 'cell.'

after walking through a wide hallway, they entered a smaller one, stopping in front of a heavy metal door. with little hesitation or struggle, seonghwa pushed it open swiftly.

wooyoung's eyes widened; that door looked like it weighed over two tons.

seonghwa allowed wooyoung to enter first as he closed the door behind them. the two were standing in a long corridor lit with one dim light-bulb, a common occurrence in this building,  with a single room at the end of it.

the elder began walking quickly down the hallway, and wooyoung followed him despite the eerie vibe he got from the place.

the elder stopped directly in front of the door and pulled out a singular bronze key. 

he opens the door and pushes it open with just as much agility as before. again, the door looked like it belonged on 'the biggest loser.' seriously, how strong was he?

wooyoung entered first and was rather astonished by what he saw. the room was rather small, with no windows, and so was the bed in the corner, but fully furnished room and bathroom made up for it. especially considering he thought he'd be stuck in some sort of dungeon.

before seonghwa could make a move to close the door and trap wooyoung in this room for god knows how long, wooyoung stopped him.

"maybe you should come in. i think we need to talk."

seonghwa said nothing as his face remained expressionless, something he grew good at.

he walked into the room and stood there, waiting for wooyoung to talk. the younger walked to his small bed in the corner and looked back at seonghwa.

"so... you're in a gang," wooyoung started.

seonghwa felt like dying. his ego and dignity couldn't take confrontation this serious. especially from his boyfriend's best friend.

"obviously," the elder replied trying not to sound so harsh.

wooyoung's eyes narrowed, "i'm gonna go out on a limb here and say yeosang doesn't know."

seonghwa closed his eyes for a few seconds, "your point?"

"at this rate both of you will end up getting hurt," wooyoung replied after thinking about it for a few seconds.

seonghwa stayed silent and wooyoung saw this as an opportunity to keep talking, "i know we don't know each other that well, but i've known yeosang long enough to realize just how important you are to him."

"hurting him is never my intention," seonghwa defended.

wooyoung smiled faintly, "of course not, but intentions don't always control outcomes."

"what, so you're saying i'm gonna hurt him either way?"

the younger shook his head softly, "no, what i'm saying is that he probably knows you'll never hurt him, but that doesn't mean he'll be all happy about this," wooyoung  sighed before adding, "just... be honest with him. this lie has gone on for a while, no? he'll be mad, but at least it'll lessen the impact if you come clean soon."

seonghwa didn't say anything but he visibly relaxed after hearing that. he knows he's in deep shit for lying to him for so long, but it'd be better to openly come clean than wait until yeosang finds out unintentionally.

wooyoung was right. he had lied long enough.

seonghwa walked towards the heavy door and opened it, "if you need anything, flush the toilet twice. it may sound weird but it's code if you need help."

before he left the elder turned towards wooyoung, giving him a half-smile, "and thank you."

wooyoung smiled back and told him it was no problem. little did the lavender-haired man know what seonghwa was planning to do because of his friendly words of advice.

he was going to tell yeosang. tomorrow.
