"I—I...I just thought we were building things back u—up. But apparently th—that was one sided! It's all my fault!" Hendery sobbed into Jungwoo's shoulder.

"Hey...things were just really complicated with you two. And I mean in a sense it was your fault—but I'm really sorry that this happens Hendery. I know you were really trying to be better," the elder said comfortingly, his hand rubbing up and down the length of the boys back.

A particularly loud sob came out of him before he yelled, "B—But I love him! I don't want to s—say goodbye to him!"

In that moment, Jungwoo was torn. Hendery had messed up his relationship himself by cheating, which really hurt Xioajun. But on the other hand, that was almost a wake up call for him, he'd spent the past few months doing everything he could to be a better person. The Hendery he first met was a completely different person than then on that was sobbing into his shoulder. So the only response Jungwoo decided on giving was just wrapping his arms tighter around the heartbroken boy. Nonetheless, any words he could've said wouldn't have made a difference to his shattered heart.

Hendery was like a rope that's broken all but one last thread, and Xiaojun was the bit of tension it needed to send itself down the never ending pit below. That pit being his own sadness and self loathing.

He'd finally broke apart from what was holding onto his happiness. "I don't w—want to be here if I can't be w-with Xiao...Xiao m—my baby...I'm nothing without...him!"

"Hendery, look at me," Jungwoo spoke, holding the most gentle authority within his tone. "Your worth isn't determined by the people you end up with or been with. You have to realize you're special even without Xiaojun. Do you want Xiaojun because he makes you feel like you're actually worth something or because you truly love him? I hope it's the ladder, but Hendery, all of us—all of your friends know you are so much more than the people you've dated. You are something without him...you're fricking Wong Kunhang and you don't need anybody to define you. I know that you've changed and whoever you end up with is so lucky...but you don't have to end up with Xioajun. It hurts right now, but one day you'll be so in love with somebody else that you won't even remember this moment, okay? Believe in yourself first—love yourself first. The fact that you cheated doesn't have to define you, you're so much more than your mistakes, please don't say you're nothing without him."

Hendery looked up at the elder with teary eyes, that was the first time somebody truthfully told him he was worth something. This was the first time somebody could actually look past the fact he cheated—because he was terribly guilty about that. He hated himself for so long because of what he did, but it's possible for people to change, he doesn't have to be branded a cheater for the rest of his life.

Lucas couldn't help but smile when he walked into his dorm and saw Jungwoo and Hendery asleep together on his roommates bed. It was good to see Hendery finally asleep. Over the past week, everything had been pretty rough for his roommate, but Jungwoo was there for him whenever he needed it. That was one of the things Lucas loved about his boyfriend, the fact that he would drop everything to help somebody who was upset. 

Squatting down next to the bed, Lucas put a hand on the side of Jungwoo's face, "Baby..." The boys nose scrunched up slightly and he let out a small whine. "Angel, wake up." The younger said softly, trying to coax him awake.

Jungwoo's eyes fluttered open, a small smile forming on his face when he saw who it was. "You're back! I missed you!" He practically whispered.

"I'm guessing you don't want to go practice tonight?" Lucas asked.

After shaking his head, Jungwoo climbed off of the bed and placed himself in his boyfriends lap. "'M too tired," he mumbled, laying his head down on Lucas's shoulder. "I'll just go in the morning..."

"I was going to go to the gym with Johnny tonight, but I can reschedule if you want me to?"

Jungwoo shook his head once again, "You don't have to stay here, go ahead. But please put me back on the bed first."

The younger let out a quiet laugh before standing up, Jungwoo still in his arms and placing him back next to Hendery. "How's he doing?"

He shrugged, "A little better? He stopped crying for awhile so we were just talking then I'm guessing we fell asleep." M

Placing a small kiss on his forehead, Lucas gave his boyfriend a small smile, "If you need anything, call me. I'll be back in a couple hours."

Before Lucas could pull away, the elder quickly leaned up and pecked the boys lips, "bye bye, have fun."

✨✨✨

"Johnny I'm so in love with him—oh my gosh he gets more perfect everyday!" Lucas squealed as he watched Johnny do some push-ups.

"That's sweet, it really is, but you've been...sitting on that bench just watching...me this entire time." He said in between small pants.

Getting down onto the floor, the younger started doing push-ups across from his friend. "So anyway, Jungwoo is so adorable and I literally want to kiss him every second of every day. Tomorrow is our three month anniversary and I'm so excited...three months already whew..."

Johnny let out a small, "mhm," before he let Lucas's voice drift into the background, not being able to take another minute of his sickeningly sweet rambling.
