The guard was starting to lose hope that the prince was in the palace. He was at the fifth floor of the place with no sign of Minghao in sight. He turned right towards a hallway only to meet a dead end. This made him annoyed, but he tried to stay optimistic about the search. His patients lowered when he met another dead end.

Jun had only one option left, the map room at the far end of the floor. He made his way towards the door of the room and opened it with full force. His eyes wondered around half the room but soon felt a impact painfully land on is forehead. He groaned and rubbed the spot that might leave a bruise. Junhui looked around and saw Minghao, the prince had another book in his hand.

He sighed in relief. ❝Minghao-❞ The guard was cut off as another book came flying in his direction, luckily he dodged it in time. ❝Cmon flower-❞

❝Don't call me that.❞ Minghao spat as he tried grabbing another book to throw.

❝Minghao, please let me speak. I want to set things right with you.❞

❝Jeonghan was right, I shouldn't have let us get too close. You hurt me Junhui...❞

❝That's why I want to apologize to you. Please let me.❞ Jun finished as he looked at the younger boy. It took awhile for Minghao to say his answer, but he gave a nod and put the book down. The guard grinned softly and sighed. ❝I'm sorry... for being an idiot and was obviously hurting your feelings. I wasn't thinking straight and was to caught up in the moment. You were trying your best and I feel guilty for causing you pain.❞ He finished and looked back at the prince who was quietly sobbing.

Junhui made his way to Minghao and wiped his tears away, the other tried pushing away but his actions didn't allow him as he leaned into Jun's chest and cried into his neck. The other hugged him and swayed them side to side to help calm the other. ❝You can hate me after this, just please don't cry anymore.❞ Minghao shook his head and wrapped his arms around Junhui's neck for support.

❝I can't hate you... I like you...❞ The prince mumbled into the other's shirt.

❝What was that?❞

❝I-i like you...❞ He repeated again, his eyes were turning red along with his cheeks.

❝You're to quiet.❞ Junhui teased the boy. He heard it the first time, he just wanted to make the prince flustered.

❝I like you, Junnie, a lot...❞ Minghao spoke up. The prince closed his eyes and got ready for any rejection of any sort. He was shocked when he was met with a kiss on the lips, he kissed back and filled in any space in between them. The sweet feeling the prince was having felt wonderful, he didn't want it to end. When they broke apart after and stared into each other's eyes, now the both of them were crying.

❝Does that give you my answer?❞ Junhui chuckled as he rubbed circles on the boy's sides. Minghao nodded and smiled, he felt like their fight didn't even exist.

Of course this wasn't a happily ever after for the two as a loud bang was heard from behind. It was Hansol, the guard looked worried. ❝Hansol? What's wrong?❞ Minghao asked him right away.

❝Minghao... Seokmin, Jisoo, they were attacked-❞

❝Jisoo?❞

Please lead the way immediately-

enjoying the sweet things while it lasts
