''Hey hyung?'' Shawn spoke softly while mindlessly staring into the ceiling.

''Yes?'' the older boy answered, turning around to face the younger.

Shawn breathed out and rolled onto his side so he was completely turned towards Jihyuk.

They were actually really close to each other since they moved to lay on the bed after finishing two more movies.

Shawn licked his lips and shyly stared into Jihyuk's eyes. ''Hyung, is there-is there something that you're not telling me?''

Jihyuk had instantly stiffened and looked away. ''Shoot. Is it obvious?'' he thought nervously, biting his lower lip.

Shawn gasped even though he already knew something was off. Jihyuk's reaction just confirmed everything.

''There is something, isn't there?!'' he squeaked accusingly, shuffling a little so he was sitting on his knees in front of the other. Jihyuk just gulped and sighed.

Shawn pouted and then whined loudly. ''Hyuuung! How could you?!'' he dramatically threw his head back and pointed at the older boy who just groaned.

Jihyuk nervously ran a hand through his hair. ''I'm sorry Shawn-ah. I swear I will tell you, but I don't want to rush it. I'm not sure this is the right time for it.'' he said and then sat up too. Jihyuk reached out and took Shawn's hand between the both of his. Their size difference was almost funny to how tiny Shawn's hand looked.

''Promise that you'll tell me Hyukie?'' Shawn asked cutely. Jihyuk cooed at him and nodded. ''Of course Shawnie. Hyukie promises.'' Jihyuk teased in a baby voice. Shawn giggled and scooted closer to Jihyuk. Jihyuk grabbed his forearms and pulled him to sit in his lap to which Shawn squeaked in surprise. ''Thanks hyung.'' Shawn grinned and then pressed his body into Jihyuk's. Jihyuk wrapped his arms around him, the rings on his fingers shining in the Sun. It still was day outside but it was beginning to darken.

The pair just embraced in comfortable silence, enjoying the warmth of each other until Shawn looked up from his place in Jihyuk's neck.

''You would have told me before or now if it involves you being somehow hurt, right?'' Shawn asked, concern laced in his eyes.

''Of course I would. And don't worry, nobody is hurt. Just something I don't know how you will react to.'' Jihyuk reassured him, one of his hands brushing up and down the purple haired boy's back.

Shawn frowned. ''Is it something bad?''

Jihyuk shook his head. ''No no, it's good, but I just don't know how you'll take it.'' Jihyuk was struggling to not just blurt out everything to the younger. He really wanted to do so. But Shawn was still recovering. He couldn't.

''Isn't it better to tell him now?'' Chanyoung asked him hopefully. Jihyuk sighed to his wolf. ''I don't think so Chan. Not yet anyway.''  he answered him. The wolf groaned and then went to sleep.

Shawn whined and slapped his hyung's shoulder while burying his head back into his neck. ''Yah Park Jihyuk! You're worrying me!'' he slightly nipped at Jihyuk's neck as a punishment. Jihyuk froze for a moment, but quickly regained his composure. ''Aish, you brat.'' he muttered and hugged his dongsaeng again. ''Don't worry about it. I'll tell you soon enough.'' he promised. Shawn purred a little to that which made Jihyuk laugh. ''You are so cute I swear.'' he cooed. Shawn's face reddened at that. Since he didn't know what that meant, he thought he was just hot.
