It is an absolute human certainty that no one can know his own beauty or perceive a sense of his own worth until it has been reflected back to him in the mirror of another loving, caring human being.
John Joseph Powell
Established Relationship...
Renjun was a few inches shorter than him, and he had the perfect height for Donghyuck to kiss his nose while they were standing or cuddled up in the sheets when winter would become too cold during its season.
His hair was caramel brown, at times he would dye it a little bit lighter in color or darker, depending on his mood or to how his husband would prefer. He's Chinese and was born somewhere in the province of Jilin.
Donghyuck had black silver gray hair at that time when they met, and Renjun swears his undies drop every single time he reminisces of his husband and how they instantly fucked upon their first encounter.
It is now 1:30 am on a hot summer night, the two lovers were supposed to be sleeping but, Donghyuck kept thrashing and moving around, throwing away one of their pillows on the ground. It was getting too hot when he sat up and took off his shirt and laid down next to his husband once more, but then again he just couldn't stay put.
As a result, it wakes up his lover on the right side of their bed, hair strands popping out from the sides, giving him the most deadliest glare.
"Lee Donghyuck, I have work in a few hours, can you at least be considerate enough to let me sleep in peace?" Frustration seething through the Chinese's breathe as he waited for his husband to reply.
"Are you serious? Am I the only one who feels like the weather is too hot right now to even sleep in!?" Donghyuck answers in a hushed tone. Even when it's just the two of them living together, he knew better than to raise his voice at the monster he just woke.
"Sweetheart, its so hot, I can't sleep well it's making me restless"
"Then grab the sheets and sleep on the floor where it's cold, that way I can rest properly cause I have to be early for work later" Angrily turning his back from the tanned male, Renjun shuts his eyes as he tries to go back to sleep.
As much as I love you, you can be really much of a dick at times.
Simply not arguing anymore, Donghyuck sighs out and grabs the pillow he threw earlier from the floor along with his shirt. He sits at the corner of their bed, reaching out to gently comb the soft strands on his husband's head , placing a soft peck as he apologized in a very soft voice before leaving their room to sleep in the living room where it's cooler when the windows are opened.
Morning comes a few hours later and Renjun wakes up a few minutes before his alarm. He turns off the incoming tone before facing the empty space of their bed. He knew he had been mean last night, but he had a meeting to attend to the first thing in his company and he can't afford to be late.
Getting up from his bed, he got ready in the most quiet way possible knowing that his other half might not have gotten enough shut eye from last night due to his complaints. By tippy toes he entered the living room and spotted Donghyuck still sleeping on their couch, shirtless but clinging tightly unto his pillow.
It broke Renjun's heart to see his lover's uncomfortable face as he slept. Feeling guilty when he had to prioritize himself last night. He knew he was selfish but Donghyuck understood him and always does his best to never drag him along with his work.
Renjun took it upon himself to whip up a small breakfast ,some fried rice, ham and brewed coffee enough for his husband to drink later when he woke up.
Checking the clock twice he takes out his pen and a sticky note. Writes down a small letter that consisted of several sentences that had "please forgive me" and "I'm sorry for being a dick to you last night" before leaving.

The apartment was empty from the moment he opens the door. Might be because his husband went out to cool his head off or go to the local bar to get wasted again since it's his day off.
Deeply sighing, he enters the place after taking off his shoes, which was neatly placed on their shoe rack by the door. Renjun takes out his phone, there were no messages, no miss calls, not even a notification from his husband , who was probably either pissed or mad at him from being neglected the other night.
Typing, he left messages to his close friends regarding about Donghyuck 's whereabouts.
Now just in his shirt and boxers he sits on the coach where Donghyuck slept last night and hugs the pillow that was forgotten to be returned to their room. It smells of his strawberry shampoo and a little bit of his musky scent.
Lee Donghyuck, wherever you are please come home soon.
It was about 10pm now and the door opened softly with a figure that Renjun had been expecting after agonizingly waiting for 3 hours.
"I-I'm home" Donghyuck awkwardly greets his Chinese husband, hand scratching the back of his head.
Renjun doesn't reply. He doesn't reply until he walked across their living room, standing in front of his husband who had their main door closed behind his back.
"You're probably wondering why I came home late... I didn't drink or anything. I was at the appliance store the whole afternoon-"
"Wait, why -?"
"I realized that our air conditioning is probably broken, plus it needs to be replaced.... So I bought a new one. A better one at least. It's going to be delivered here tomorrow so yeah, oh! And here" Not having to notice, Donghyuck was carrying a small take out plastic from one of Renjuns fave Chinese restaurants.
He places it on the nearest counter along with a pint of cookies and cream ice cream with two spoons "I figured that it would still be hot tonight, so I bought ice cream... to cool us off--"
Renjun just stares. He still refuses to say a word. After listening to Donghyuck explain.
How could he?
He'd been selfish.
While his husband had always been considerate about what's happening and to what might happen to the both of them, if he didn't make it up for them both.
With his slim arms, he wraps it around Donghyuck's waist, burying his face on the crook of his neck. This was enough for the tanned male to tangle his fingers on Renjun's hair, as his free hand soothes long patterns on his back..
"Airen-- I'm so sorry -- "
"Shhhhh, it's alright sweetheart . No need ."
Even with his selfish tendencies, Renjun will always be loved. And Haechan never fails to make him feel that way.
