Jeonghan sits distraught on the floor; He lays out all the polaroids with Mingyu, the cute letter his love had written, and half of a heart necklace. He thought back to when Mingyu has first given it to him, the way his eyes sparkled, the way his smile made Jeonghan feel.

SEVENTEEN had gone a on healing trip, everyone had to choose teams and Jeonghan studied the room of men. Mingyu stood eagerly, waiting to be chosen and he knew he would lose without him. "Mingyu," Jeonghan calls out proudly and Mingyu wraps himself around Jeonghan's body, giving him a tight squeeze.

After dinner and the games were over Mingyu pulled him aside. "I- I wanted to thank you for picking me first," he timidly bows his head. "You're my first too," he finishes off his thoughts, and hands Jeonghan a rose gold necklace.

He clenches onto the the necklace and heads to the bathroom. Once he feels safe, he opens his hand to find half of a heart. Confused he rushes again downstairs and sits near Mingyu, but is unable to get his attention so he decides to text.

Jeonghan: Half a heart?!
Mingyu: Yeah, do you like it ? it's mine ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Jeonghan: Wait, so why are you giving it to me ? don't you need it ?
Mingyu: Nop, it's yours now

Jeonghan regretted not taking care of Mingyu's heart. He needed to fix this, but there was only one way. Jeonghan had to come clean to the group, to Seungcheol, to his family but mostly to himself. And only then could he work on healing Mingyu's broken heart.

He reaches for his phone and calls the only person who knows him better than himself. A cranky voice answers,"What now ," Joshua sighs. "I need you,"Jeonghan whines. "If this isn't an emergency, I swear Yoon Jeonghan,"Joshua is cut off by his best friends pleas. "I promise it's not like before," Jeonghan does his best to convince him.

He giggles to himself thinking of all the times he's fooled his best friend . "I'm coming," he yawns and hangs up.
