Hendery paces up and down, brushing his finger against the wall before turning swiftly on his heels and moving to touch down on the other side.

He stops in the middle, tightly clasping his hands together before slowly sliding them up to hold himself, his nails digging deeply into the flesh near his elbow.

He drags down, raking his nails along his arm, the skin becoming pink and irritated as a sweet rush of pain courses through him.

"Lights out!"

He jerks his head towards his still closed door as the manager walks down the hall, tapping on their doors and repeating his statement.

No one ever listens but it helps the manager feel like he's actually doing something when he "Reminds" them to get a good nights sleep.

Hendery watches as the light flicks off in the hall before collapsing on his best, curling his body into a tight ball as he squeezes his eyes shut.

Images flash behind his eye lids, mistakes, voice cracks, everything he's ever done wrong, slamming deep into his gut as a single tear slides down his cheek.

Imperfect

The members didn't believe him when he said that he was more than sad.

Dismissing it as nerves and nothing more.

It's way more, a deep, guttural feeling of self loathing and intense sadness causing eating away at his heart and his will to persevere.

He clutches the blankets tightly in his fists as he forces away the thoughts, falling into a dreamless sleep, his cheeks still moist.

Hendery managing to be the only one with his own room didn't have to deal with the expressive thoughts of having a roommate.

"Hendery is sad."

"I know."

"Why don't any of the other members do anything?"

"They don't understand."

"Do you understand?"

"No."

Xiaojun pushes off the bed, heading towards the door.

"Where are you going?"

"To lay with Hendery."

. . .

From the night forward, at roughly the same time the boys would sneak into Hendery's room.

Curling around him on either side in some sort of protective barrier in hopes of giving him some sort of foreclosure.

Being a light sleeper there wasn't one moment when Hendery wasn't aware of the two boys but he found himself enjoying the extra warmth and attention.

This went on for days and soon he began to anticipate the moment they would come to relive him of his saddening thought.

That is, until they didn't.

After sleeping with the boys for almost a week they had suddenly stopped coming.

Hendery couldn't help but miss their constant presence and eventually got up the nerve to search for them.

Creeping down the hall, Hendery slowly inches his way towards their shared room.

By the time he had grabbed the handle of the door he had heard their hushed voices, whispering inside.

He quickly retracts his hand before pressing his ear to the door.

"I-I think I like Hendery..."

"WHA-"

"Shhhhhhh!"

The sound of Yang Yang's muffled yelling drifts through their door before silence.

"I think I like him t-too..."

Hendery gasps silently, slamming his hand over his mouth.

He lifts out of his crouch, only to slam his head against the bottom of the door handle.

Cursing quietly, he wraps his hands over his head, rubbing gently.

He slowly turns his head to the side as he hears the click of the door opening.

Tipping his chin up he meets eyes with Xiaojun and Yang Yang, a light blush spreading across his cheeks as the trio stare at each other.

"U-uh, I totally wasn't eavesdropping..."
