Everytime We Touch

TW: touch starvation

HueningKai was laying in his bed after midnight, eyes wide open staring at the ceiling.
HueningKai's hands where shaking, and he felt cold and empty.
He wanted warmth so badly, but no matter how many blankets he wrapped around himself, it would never make up for an actual person.
He wanted to reach out to someone, he wanted to hug someone, to cuddle, but he couldn't.
He didn't want to say anything to his Hyungs because he was afraid.
He was afraid they would just reject him, or ignore him, or tell him he will be fine in which he knew he wouldn't.
He was touch starved, he wanted physical contact, no he NEEDED physical contact.
But alas he decided to stay silent, and instead hug his plushies, imagining it to be someone.

The next day HueningKai trudged into the living room, completely drained from lack of sleep.
Although no one seemed to notice, at least he thought no one did.
Taehyun had realized how upset HueningKai has been lately, and finally decided to confront him about it.

"Hyuka?" Taehyun called out to HueningKai as he entered their room.
HueningKai looked up from his phone and answered
"..yes?"
Taehyun sat down at the foot of HueningKai's bed,
"Are you okay?"
HueningKai froze and shifted his eyes from his phone to Taehyun then back to his phone and nervously chuckled.
"O-of course! Why w-wouldn't I be??"
Taehyun looked at HueningKai with soft eyes, before grabbing his arm and pulling him in for a hug.

And suddenly just like fire against a wooden log, heat ran through HueningKai.
Taehyun's warmth burned against HueningKai's cold, shivering skin.
HueningKai couldn't hide anymore, as he collapsed against Taehyun's chest, gripping his shirt.
Hot tears rolled down HueningKai's face, and Taehyun used his thumb to wipe them off.

"Thank you.." is all HueningKai could say, and Taehyun at first a little confused, eventually caught on, and pulled HueningKai closer
"You're welcome"
