Ship: Kim Youngjo | Ravn x Yeo Hwanwoong // Kim Geonhak | Leedo x Kim Youngjo | Ravn
Watch. That was all Hwanwoong could do. He wrapped his arms around himself, breathing out a quivered sigh, oddly cold.
It hurt. That was how Hwanwoong could only describe it. Hurt: the pressing down on his chest, his lungs burning when he was breathless at the sight of him, and then his lungs squeezing his heart when he took shaky, heavy breathes at the sight of them.
Them. They weren't who he despised. In fact, he despised neither of them, he couldn't bring himself to hate such close friends.
Friends, Hwanwoong would scoff, a bitter word filling a bitter mind, leaving a bitter taste in his mouth.
Regret followed soon afterward. He had no right to feel bitter since it was his fault for never saying anything. But at the same, Hwanwoong realized, he could've never done anything.
Youngjo was never his, no matter how much Hwanwoong desired it. Youngjo could never be his. He's Gunhak's, and Gunhak's his. They were meant for each other, and it became clear to Hwanwoong and his bitter thoughts as he watched.
And it hurt.
