back to you || yeonbin

"Was there ever someone else, hyung?"
A lean hand swiped back his hair from the front of his forehead.

"Just you, Soobin."

Soobin smiled and laid back on the grass, beside his lover. He went back to his book, Norwegian Wood and gave out a satisfied hum.

Yeonjun laughed softly and shifted, to lightly spoon his boyfriend.

"You?", asked Yeonjun.

Soobin giggled a little and turned to face Yeonjun.
"Just you, hyung."

Yeonjun smiled brightly as he pulled forward for a soft kiss, on his lover's lips.

Soobin smiled into the kiss, and grabbed his hyung's collar to deepen it.

A thousand words passed into it. Maybe a thousand more.
They were one.
Destined.
The book laid there, forgotten. A silent witness to the serene love.

Blind.
It's all blind.
Everything's dark.
There's no light.
There's no way out.

Soobin's eyes fluttered open, only to see an unfamiliar hospital room. Beside his bed, sat Doyoung, dozing off. Tired.

He suddenly woke up on hearing Soobin cough.

For the first time Doyoung saw the little bunny, weaker than ever.

He had lost his color, his playfulness.

He realised Soobin could burst out any moment, on seeing him stare blankly at the wall.

Doyoung silently walked upto the said man, and placed a warm hand on his frail shoulder.
"Why can't I move on?", said Soobin, in a criaked whisper.

And he broke.

Endless tears flowing from his eyes, while his mind rewound the scene he saw at the cafe.

Yeonjun.
His Yeonjun.

With someone else.

Soobin wailed out loud, calling out his old lover's name, thrashing around the bedsheets.

All the while, Doyoung held him, in a hushed mourn.

••••••••

Seokjin ran along the hospital corridor, frantically searching for Soobin's room. When Doyoung called him, Seokjin said nothing but raced ti the hospital. He never said a word to anyone.

He just prayed.
Prayed that nothing would happen to his younger brother.

And when he saw his junior, in the bed, pale and fragile, Seokjin had to hold on to the door for a little support. He gazed at Soobin, and on seeing his tear-streaked face, his mind raced.

In anger.
In sadness.

He rushed out and asked Doyoung, what in the hell had made his little one cry?

Doyoung gave a forelorn look at Seokjin.
"The same reason he had for the last six years."

Seokjin on hearing this, slumped beside Doyoung and asked, "He saw him?"

Doyoung nodded.

Seokjin gave out a weak sigh, and mumbled out, "Leo?"

Doyoung nodded again.

The former idol beside him gave out another weaker sigh.

What have I done?
