Lucas went upstairs to get clothes for Jungwoo, his mind lingering on what he was told.

The fact that someone not only beat Jungwoo but also destroyed his self esteem and convinced him that he was a horrible person enraged him.

He put the wet clothes in the dryer and noticed his name tag on the back of the shirt.

So that's where it went.

He thought it was cute.

He quickly grabbed some dry clothes and ran downstairs, finding Jungwoo curled up and uncomfortable on the couch.

Jungwoo reached out for them when he noticed him. He changed swiftly.

The silence between them made his heart ache. Embarrassed and cold, he inched closer to Lucas, who was sitting on the other side of the couch.

Lucas saw him and smiled. "What are you doing?"

He held his hand out from his blanket burrito. "C-Can we cuddle?"

Lucas leaned forward and attacked him with hugs. They ended up with Jungwoo laying his head on Lucas' shoulder and Lucas wrapping his arms around his thin waist.

He moved Jungwoo to face him. "Will you kiss me?"

"What am I allowed to do while I do it?"

"Anything you want."

Jungwoo smiled and put his lips on Lucas'. He finally let Lucas' tongue in his mouth and sat idly by while Lucas explored.

He soon moved and straddled him, awkwardly putting his hands on either side of Lucas' face.

They pulled away and stared at each other for a moment before Jungwoo threw himself on Lucas and hugged him.

Lucas ran his hand down Jungwoo's spine. "You know, you don't have to ask to do that anymore. Just do it."

Jungwoo nodded and resumed his cuddling position.

Renjun later sleepily made his way down the stairs. "Good morning, hyung—oh, hey Jungwoo. Why are you here?"

"He's gonna live with us. Would you be alright with that?"

Jungwoo was surprised at Lucas. He hadn't told him that yet.

Renjun nodded. "I like Jungwoo-hyung. Hopefully he's smarter than you and can actually help me with my homework."

Lucas scowled at him but put on a loving smile for Jungwoo when he turned back around. "Would you be okay with that?" He whispered.

Jungwoo got embarrassed by the closeness and just smiled and layed his head on Lucas' chest.

"Mom and Dad will be back in a few days. Have you told them yet?" Renjun asked from the kitchen.

"No, but they already love him. They'll be fine with it."

Renjun hummed and left the kitchen with a cup of water, going back upstairs.

Lucas played with Jungwoo's hair, which made him very sleepy. He took his hand in his and squeezed. His skin was as cold as ice.

He wrapped him up in the blanket more and pulled him closer, kissing his cheek and collarbone in the process.

Soon enough, he heard light breathing and soft snores from the latter. He looked down at the boy in his arms and saw he was fast asleep. He kissed him once again before laying his head on Jungwoo and falling asleep too.

"Jungwoo-hyung...wake up..." Renjun whispered.

Jungwoo opened his eyes. He hummed.

"Your phone has been going off like crazy. It's someone named Taeyong."

He nodded and thanked Renjun when he gave him his phone.

He looked at the notifications.

[66 messages, 42 missed calls from Yongie]

Jungwoo scrolled through them, noticing that a majority of them were just him repeating things such as, "I'm sorry," "My parents didn't talk to me about it," "Where are you," and, "Are you okay?"

He didn't text back.

He threw his phone aside as Renjun sat down next to the cuddled couple. "Jungwoo, do you really love hyung?"

Jungwoo exchanged glances with him and the sleeping Lucas before smiling and nodding.

Renjun smiled too. "Good. I'm glad you guys are happy together. Lucas was really stressed out before he met you but now, he talks about you all the time."

"R-Really?"

"Yeah! He loves you too, Jungwoo. He loves you a lot."

Jungwoo smiled as Renjun left the couch and went into another room.

He tried to move but found his back hurting since he slept upright and on the couch. He decided to stay put as he didn't want to wake Lucas anyways.

However, he was not aware that Lucas had been awake for a while and was not moving for a similar reason.

"Are you hurt?" He asked, startling Jungwoo.

"Oh no, I'm just..."

Lucas lifted him off his lap and stood up, gesturing for him to do the same. Jungwoo did, but slowly. Thankfully, Lucas had no intention of making him walk on his own. He picked him up in front of him, Jungwoo wrapping his legs around Lucas' waist.

Lucas carried him upstairs to his room and laid him down on the bed. He leaned down to kiss him. "Do you still want to sleep?"

"Yes..."

"Mm, good. I'll stay with you."

Lucas laid down behind him and hugged his abdomen. He figured it would be enough to make Jungwoo fall back asleep, but it wasn't.

Jungwoo rolled over to face him. He poked him in the middle of the chest. "Could you take this off?"

Lucas looked down at his shirt and smirked. "You want me to take it off?"

He hummed.

Lucas sat up and began to, very slowly pull the shirt off by the hem. Jungwoo pouted. What was originally an innocent gesture turned into a strip tease quickly. He eventually sat up and pulled it off for him. He kept his smirk.

"Now you too."

Jungwoo turned red. "M-Me?"

Lucas nodded.

He sighed and took his shirt off in a similar manner that Lucas did, except, when his was pulled over him, he was pushed against the bed.

Jungwoo was intimidated by Lucas' harsh movements. He looked so fierce. So, he was surprised when Lucas just leaned down and tenderly kissed the center of his stomach and got off of him.

He pressed their chests together and caressed Jungwoo's sides.

"I love you, Jungwoo."

"I love you too, Lucas."
