       "Do I look alright???" Soobin combed his hair back, trying to make sure no hairs were loose. Hueningkai smiled and pulled soobins hand from his hair.
     "You look fine soobin, what should we say?you watched a lot of videos right??" Hueningkai smoothed out the lines in soobins shirt, pleasantly surprised to feel soobins tummy. Oh yes, he would do this more often.
      Soobin smoothed the curls in hueningkais hair with his fingers, noticing how soft hueningkais hair was, it made him think of when Hueningkai showered at the mansion, this whole time ....Hueningkai hadn't showered then because he couldn't....
     "Soobin?" Hueningkai noticed the boys smile falter and his lack of response to his question.
     "Ah, right a lot of them said to be honest, and-"
      "You brat." A female voice hissed, making soobin and Hueningkai freeze.
      "H-hey leana." Hueningkai smiled at the early unplanned opening of his front door.
     Leana responded with a hug, Hueningkai could feel her relief and happiness that he was back. She just needed to act mean so she wouldn't cry, Hueningkai knew that. Soobin didn't though.
        Soobin watched in fear as leanas hug squeezed Hueningkai menacingly, he tried to mention that Hueningkai was recovering but couldn't bear to leave a bossy impression on hueningkais family.
     Hueningkai finally let out a pained groan, not being able to bear it any longer. Leana quickly noticed and released him.
      "Sorry sorry. Come in, you live here too. Mom and dad went to get you a surprise, they weren't expecting you yet so you have time to prepare." Leana let her extremely happy smile seeing her brother again slip when Hueningkai and soobins backs were to her as they walked in.
       "You!" Leana yelled and teased, seeing soobin jump and turn around like a confused bunny.
        "You're cute." Leana smiled, she did think the boy was handsome, and wanted to give off a friendly open aura so the boy would loosen up.
     "YES IM SORRY MY NAME IS SOOBIN ITS SO NICE TO-....what?" Soobin had prepared for upsetting her but processed what the girl had said.
       "Don't worry I can already tell. Go make sure Kai is alright going up the stairs." Leana gave a wink and watched the tall boy, bow, wave, then shyly walk up the stairs.
        She can tell what?!that I'm gay???! A mafia member???!dating her brother???!! Soobin was panicking even more now instead of calming down, his mind got distracted however by seeing the family pictures while walking up the stairs.
      He smiled at a picture of Kai and his siblings at a water park, and only found his smile widening with every picture he saw until he ran out of stairs, and had stepped into the second floor.
     Soobin walked down the hallway to the obviously open bedroom door, Hueningkai had already made it to his bedroom without him.
     Soobin frowned when he peeked into the bedroom door and saw Hueningkai, laying on his own bed, holding his plushies, with a sad expression. He had his eyes closed, looked almost as if he were sleeping, but somehow looked sad.
      Soobin nearly tripped over a grape juice bottle but safely made it to hueningkais bed. Hueningkai scooted over when he could smell soobins scent getting closer. He didn't even have to open his eyes, nor did he want to, he savored the feeling of his own bed.
      "They really left it just like it was, sorry." Hueningkai let a little smile drip with his words. He heard soobin trip over the grape juice bottle.
        "That's alright, I like seeing how you live. How you actually live." Soobin corrected himself and wrapped his arms around Hueningkais torso.
      "I'm glad you're home." Soobin smiled and played with hueningkais hair, smiling when the younger leaned into his hand.
      "Me too."

   "Then I woke up at the hospital." Beomgyu finished. His mother and himself had been talking for hours now, after many years from both beomgyu and his mother, their kitchen table was filled with tissue boxes.
       "Honey- im.....i don't know what to say, where to start..." His mother ran her hands over her face and took a deep breath.
    "Mom, I love you and I'm glad to be home...but I'd really like to be alone for a bit." Beomgyu gave his mother's hand a loving squeeze.
       "Of course!!I'll make you a home cooked meal you just rest, or roam the house, whatever you want." His mother rushed to her feet and made a bee line for the kitchen, starting to make beomgyu his favorite dishes immediately.
      Beomgyu had cried so much with his mother that he felt drained, literally. He stood from the tables chair and dragged himself into the livingroom, dropping himself into the couch he used to lay on everyday after school. Which now felt foreign, could things ever go back to the way they were? Did he want them to?
      "Yeonjun." His mother tried, rubbing circles on her son's back as he stared at his food coldly.
     "No. I don't want him involved in any of this, his friend mentioned stockholm syndrome too! If I keep him then I'm only being selfish." Yeonjun ate the bite of food off his fork rather aggressively.
     "Then why are you sulking around the mansion? if you don't regret it, then why be sad over it?" His mother got frustrated at this point. She didn't understand why yeonjun's actions contradicted his feelings.
     "I won't even think about seeing him until I know dad caught every single one of those mafia members.....I remember seeing at least three faces that weren't put behind bars." Yeonjun took another bite of his food and decided he was full. He pushed the plate aside and left his mother at the dinner table, retiring to his bedroom.
      "That and I can't face his family after they find out that my family is a mafia, bought their son, from my uncle, who by the way kidnapped him in the first place. Then continued to keep him here. Lastly, not to mention him getting shot, near death." Yeonjun laughed sadly about how ridiculous the matter was as he slid his back against the inside of his bedroom door.
     Yeonjun stared at the chain on the floor, the empty snack wrappers, and the towel that beomgyu had used the other night hanging over the bed frame.
     "I miss you beomgyu...."
