the young male sat in the dark on his bed, hugging his legs tightly to his chest. he was completely silent, hoping that he would be left alone. if only that were true. he'd made a big mistake that night, a tremendous mistake.

the male's father, a broad man who greatly towered over his son, had burst into the room, the door almost flying off its hinges. he could hear his mother's cries and pleas to stop, but it didn't help. she wasn't strong enough to save him.

the tall man slapped his son, leaving his cheek red and soar. he'd already begun to cry, and there was no stopping those tears. he screamed all kinds of things at him. 'faggot', 'mistake', 'slut'. it made him cry even more. his mother sat helplessly on the floor, crying into her hands as she allowed it to happen. she allowed her son to be beat half to death.

all because he liked boys.

minho walked into the lecture room, hyunjin's head shooting up at the sight of him. he waved slightly, but the older simply ignored him. it made him confused, especially after what happened yesterday. the younger tried not to let it bother him, and tried his best to focus on the lecturer, and he really did try.

he couldn't help but feel as if he had done something wrong, something to upset the older. am i bad at... it? so many thoughts flowed through his mind, his face reflecting that. he didn't even notice minho staring at him for the whole lecture.

at dismissal, hyunjin stood up quickly, throwing all his things into his bag and slinging it over his shoulder. he looked up towards minho's seat, but he was already gone. he sighed; hyunjin had hoped that he could talk to minho, to find out what was up, but it didn't seem like minho wanted to talk to him.

it was late, two minutes past midnight to be exact, and minho sat on the couch with his younger sister hugged into his side. he'd been watching this random drama, 'tempted', because he couldn't sleep. he didn't know why though; there was nothing stopping him from sleeping, no thoughts filling his mind. well, except for one.

hwang hyunjin.

he ignored him today, out of embarrassment. he thought he came off as desperate to the younger, and he hated to be looked down upon. he didn't like how weak he felt around hyunjin, how completely powerless he was with him. it scared him. but in a way, it intrigued him.

how did minho let hyunjin top him like that? he was so compliant as well, and didn't stop him once. did i... enjoy it? he shook the thought from his head. when he next see hyunjin, he's going to pay, big time.

he heard a soft click from the front door, signalling that someone had come inside. minho carefully pried minhee off of him, laying her on the couch and sliding a blanket over her body. he stood up to go meet whoever was at the door, but they already stood in the doorway of the living room.

his mother.
