Mingyu was walking to the base from the graveyard. His steps were slow, and calm. His long legs fitted by sleek black dress pants. The boy looked extremely good looking in a suit, and received many stares and whispers from girls that walked by. Some were even tempted to ask for a picture with the model like boy. And they would've dared to, if he wasn't keeping his head down, staring at the ground intead of the scenery before him. The boy got to the base, and sure enough his brothers were there. All of them in fine, all black suits. Mingyu looked up from the ground and was greeted with his friends in dashing suits, spread out all throughout the base, solemn faces staring back at the boy. Mingyu blinked twice while staring at the boys, then he looked down at his own suit and said,

"Well damn," the boys looked slightly confused,

"We clean up nicely. We're pretty damn attractive, if I do say so myself." Mingyu continued, buttoning the suit and chuckling, and the other boys followed, grins stretching across their faces, and their familiar unique laughs filled the room at the enlightened mood

"Yah, you just realized that?" Soonyoung said when the laugher died down enough that they could all hear his voice. The laughter returned and Mingyu began walking towards the boys. 

Mingyu plopped down on the couch beside Seungcheol and Soonyoung was on his right. The tallest sighed, and said,

"I'm hungry." 

No one brought up the matter of the situation, because they knew if Mingyu wanted to talk about it, he would. It was the same thing with Seokmin, and so Jihoon just said,

"Wanna order pizza?" 

"Let's get mozzarella sticks!" LeeChan added,

"Yeah, but make sure to order some sauce.. I don't like eating pizza without sauce." Mingyu confirmed that pizza would be their lunch today. 

"Should we get 1 or 2?" Jisoo asked, and thus began a long conversation as the boys said the things they wanted and it took a couple of tries to finally confirmed their order. 2 Medium pizzas, with mozzarella sticks for Chan, and then the debate for the 2 pops began. Mingyu didn't like fizzy things, because it gave him hiccups so he wanted iced tea, but then everyone wanted either Coke or Root Beer. Finally, after 15 minutes they confirmed what their lunch would be.

"Jisoo-ah, toss me your phone" Jeonghan said, extended his hand ready to catch

Jisoo just tossed it, and said 

"Oh, my password is-"

But Jeonghan had already unlocked it. They gave each other a cute smile and then Jeonghan proceeded to order their lunch. The boys talked with each other for a while and then they heard a faint knock on the door. Mingyu got up and opened it, revealing a tiny girl who was probably their age, just short. She was wearing a hat that said Pizza Pizza on it, and she looked up at the handsome male who was staring down at her. She was carrying pizzas that looked heavy, and her voice shook as she said,

"H-Hi, uhm. Did you- Did you, uh, order some pizza?" 

She seemed really nervous being greeted with such an attractive boy, and Mingyu chuckled showing her a dashing smile,

"Yup." he opened the door wider, revealing more attractive guys in suits and the poor girl felt like her nose would start bleeding. 

"Jisoo-ah, help this girl with the pizzas while I pay" Mingyu instructed, and the boy listened, getting up from the floor and jogging to the door. He acted like a gentleman as he bowed at the girl and took the boxes, and flashed her a stunning smile. She felt her cheeks grow warm as she stuttered,

"T-Thank you!" And Jisoo chuckled, making her cheeks grow redder with embarrassment,

"Thanks!" he said with a gentle voice and then walked off the rejoin the hungry, cheering boys. Mingyu finished the transaction and then handed her back the debit machine. She accepted it with a bow and said,

"Thank you," her nervous and awkward aura still there.

"Thanks! Take care, have a good day." Mingyu said, with a gentle smile and then proceeded to close the door.

The tallest was rejoining the group just in time to hear Jeonghan say,

"So, Mr. Hong, do you swindle every girl you see with that smile?"

Jisoo laughed,

"Oh no, Mr. Yoon, please don't misunderstand," he replied with an overly sarcastic 'gentleman' voice,

"However, I did manage to get someone who looks like a girl to fall for me with that same smile." the boy continued, teasing at Jeonghan's long hair.

Before the couple could get any cheesier than the pizza waiting in front of them, Soonyoung interrupted saying

"Yah yah, I'd like to preserve my appetite please!"

"You guys are so lame, go up to the roof if you're going to be this cheesy" Mingyu said while reaching for a slice of pizza.

"Yah, you're one to talk! You and Wonwoo are always talking like, 'That's what you get for being so attractive', oh 'Babe'" Minghao imitated and mocked Mingyu's voice while quoting some of his cheesy lines. The boy hit Minghao in the arm in response, as the other boys laughed.

"Finally, you're back together..." Jisoo said,

"Took you long enough, idiot." Seungcheol added and took a bite of his pizza

"Can't believe you even broke up with him.." Hansol said

"Yah! I did it for his sake," Mingyu defended himself.

And then a debate began, and LeeChan sat on the floor, and ate his mozzarella sticks in silence as he listened and watched his hyungs bicker. There were many accusations being made in the chaos of their voices, mainly of Mingyu being a complete idiot for breaking up with Wonwoo, Jisoo and Jeonghan being the cheesiest couple, and Mingyu is lucky that Wonwoo still loves their tall, stupid leader. It concluded in agreement that Mingyu and Wonwoo were lucky to have each other, and their lame relationship was on par with Jeonghan and Jisoo's. The boys were all laughing, talking, stealing bites of each other's pizza even though there was more than enough on the table. If you heard their conversations, and the way they laughed, and gripped their stomachs as their eyes due to too much laughter, you would've never thought that just an hour ago, they were all attended the funeral of their brother's mom. You would've never came to the conclusion that a boy present amongst that laughter had just lost the most important person in his life. No one dared to mention Mingyu's mom, they knew it would totally ruin the mood. But not only that. They all knew that Mingyu wouldn't show his weakness and sadness infront of them. He wouldn't cry, and grieve the death of his mom while he was around them. Mingyu wouldn't let tears fall infront of the boys, because he was like that. That's the kind of person he is. Because that's the kind of leader he is. The boys respected that, and laughed with him because they knew that he would probably go somewhere later to grieve alone. And so, his brothers were his distraction of happiness for now. After hanging out at the base for 2 hours, and making Chan take out the garbage from their lunch, Mingyu decided that he would get going. He waved bye to the boys and gave a sincere smile, more out of gratitude than just simple happiness. When he left the base the boys were quiet, all of them still looking at the door,

"Mingyu-hyung is so strong."

LeeChan said, breaking the silence with words that everyone was thinking.

"I don't think I could smile if I lost my mom..." Jihoon said, "let alone the day of her funeral."

Everyone was nodding in agreement with the words being said

"I'm scared for the day he might crack... We've only seen him cry once, and he didn't even cry when Seokmin passed..." Soonyoung said.

"He's our leader, but I hope he knows he doesn't need to hold in his emotions when he's with us." Jihoon added,

"But you guys know Mingyu. He knows we all look up to him, and I'm sure he thinks that if he breaks down, our groupwill too..." Minghao said,

"But, I'm relieved that he cried in front of Wonwoo."

"Really? When?" Jisoo asked, surprised. Minghao nodded and said,

"Jun told me, and Wonwoo probably told him." the boy informed the others how he knew this.

"You know, I'm really glad Mingyu has Wonwoo..." Jeonghan said, and the other boys agreed.

The boys decided to drop the topic, after discussing their appreciation for their strong leader, and decided to just talk about random things.

Meanwhile, Mingyu was walking, but not to his house. He didn't want to go home tonight, because everything there would remind him of his mom, and he wasn't in the mood to have a complete mental breakdown. And so, he walked to a familiar place that he's been to many times. Wonwoo was sitting in bed when his phone went off. On the screen displayed a text from his boyfriend, 

Mingyu: Hey Babe, what're you doing?

Wonwoo replied,

Wonwoo: Just laying in bed, why?

Mingyu: I'm outside your house. Can you come out for a sec?

Wonwoo read the text and got up from his bed. He walked over and looked out the window, and sure enough, he could see Mingyu's tall figure on his porch. The boy went downstairs, and walked towards the front door. Narin and Minsung were enjoying a variety show in the living room.

"Where you going, honey?" Narin asked,

"Mingyu's outside" Wonwoo answered then proceeded to open the front door, revealing his tall, handsome boyfriend still in his suit. He had both of his hands in  his pockets, and gave Wonwoo a gentle smile,

"Hey," he said. Wonwoo couldn't help but smile back and say,

"Hi," his low voice said. 

The couple stood there for a few moments, just looking into each others eyes. Wonwoo could tell that despite Mingyu's facade, he truly wasn't okay. Before he could say anything, Narin interrupted their blissful silent moment,

"Hey there, sweetie!" she said,

Mingyu smiled and bowed,

"Good evening, Mrs. Jeon." he replied with a gentle voice.

"I told you, call me either Narin or mom-" 

The sensitive subject was brought up accidentally, and Wonwoo shot his mother a deadly glare. Mingyu looked down at the ground with a sad smile on his face as Narin had an inner conflict of whether or not she should apologize. Wonwoo did it for her,

"Sorry..." he said lowly, and Mingyu looked up from the ground,

"It's fine," the taller assured and then Narin began talking again,

"Sweetie, why don't you come in?" she said, opening the door wider and gesturing for Mingyu to come inside.

"I'm okay, thank you. Actually, could I borrow Wonwoo for tonight?" Mingyu requested.

"Eh?" the mother and son said in unison. Mingyu just stood there smiling, because he knew he said his previous sentence clearly.

"O-Oh yeah, sure!" Narin said as she pushed Wonwoo outside and he stumbled, conveniently into his boyfriend's strong arms.

"Mom, what the Hell!" Wonwoo said, upset that she just pushed him.

"Okay, thank you!" Mingyu said as he took Wonwoo by the wrist and started dragging him,

"Bye Honey! See you tomorrow!" Narin said as she waved from behind the door.

The couple was walking, being lead by Mingyu as Wonwoo looked behind him, at his house, surprised that his mom just let him go out overnight. 

"Babe wait, let me go back and change." Wonwoo said, after he looked down at his attire of a hoodie, sweatpants and black and white Chuck Taylor's.

"No, you look fine," Mingyu said, continuing to walk and lead Wonwoo by his wrist.

"No, seriously let me change," Wonwoo said as he stopped walking and tried going the other way to his house. Mingyu didn't let go of his wrist,

"Babe~, just let me change, I'll be like 1 second!"Wonwoo said,

"I said you look fine!" he argued,

"Yeah, I look so nice in sweatpants and a hoodie next to my boyfriend in a suit." the other protested. 

Wonwoo once again tried to walk away, breaking his wrist free from his boyfriend's grip, only to be spun around and picked up bridal style by Mingyu. The taller held the Class Pres. in his arms, and began walking as Wonwoo squirmed,

"Yah, babe. Let me down, babe, yah!" Wonwoo yelled as he hit Mingyu's chest with his weak fists, making Mingyu laugh.

"Nope~" Mingyu said as he continued walking, carrying his boyfriend.

"Yah Mingyu-ah! Let me down!" the other continued yelling,

"Do you still want to change?" Mingyu said,

"Yeah I do, so let me down!" the other replied,

"Then no." Mingyu and started laughing as he began jogging with his boyfriend in his arms. Wonwoo continued punching his chest, but as Mingyu began running, Wonwoo couldn't help but smile, and then laugh at his boyfriend's cute actions,

"Okay, okay, fine I'll walk!" Wonwoo announced, laughing between his words,

"You promise?" Mingyu asked, looking into his boyfriend's eyes with raised eyebrows,

"Yes~, just let me down!" 

Mingyu finally followed his boyfriend's request and let him down, carefully unto the sidewalk.

"Gosh, you're so weird," Wonwoo said, adjusting his hoodie that was wrinkled due to his position while being carried. 

"But you love me!" Mingyu said with a goofy smile then took Wonwoo's hand in his as they continued walking.

The couple ended up walking to the base, which is where Wonwoo had presumed, considering he thought Mingyu didn't really want to go home tonight. They made their way to the roof, Mingyu grabbing the telescope on their way, while Wonwoo grabbed some pillows and blankets. The couple made their own little bed on the rooftop, that wasn't necessarily the comfiest but it was their own, and that's what mattered. Mingyu set up the telescope at an angle where they could see the stars as they sat on the ground, on the blankets. Wonwoo didn't mind spending the night with Mingyu, they had before, and he knew Mingyu needed him the most at this moment. Mingyu took off the jacket of his suit, revealing his thin black dress shirt, and he laid the jacket on Wonwoo's side of the bed, providing extra cushion. The boys spent a while looking up at the stars, Mingyu once again showing off his vast and passionate knowledge for astrology, never failing to fascinate Wonwoo. As the night grew darker, they stopped looking at stars, and they were now laying in bed, just looking at the night sky. Wonwoo was using Mingyu's arm as a head pillow, and had his arm around the taller's waist. They talked some more, laughing and sharing experiences of their past that would make the other smile. It was now almost 11PM, and their position had changed. Now, Wonwoo's pillow was his boyfriend's chest, as he played with the dress shirt buttons, and Mingyu was playing with Wonwoo's hair. A couple of moments of silence went by and so, Wonwoo asked,

"What do you wanna talk about, babe?" 

This question was followed by some more silence, as Mingyu looked up at the stars, thinking about his answers. Wonwoo patiently waited for their next conversation topic, but was slightly surprised when Mingyu finally answered,

"My mom." 

The Class President looked up from his boyfriend's chest,

"I want to talk about the amazing mother that raised me.. to talk about the amazing person she was, and all our funny memories. I want to talk about my mother, to someone I know she would've loved." Mingyu continued, a sad smile on his face as he looked down into Wonwoo's eyes. 

The next half an hour or so consisted of Mingyu telling Wonwoo about his mother as he was growing up. The way she cooked his favourite dish, and the way she was insanely proud of Mingyu for learning sign language to communicate with her, as well as all his academic achievements. He rambled on about how she found out that Mingyu was gay. Basically, Minah noticed that Mingyu was never around girls, and wasn't too surprised when Mingyu finally straight out told her that he prefered guys. He also told his boyfriend the story of his mom and him going on a picnic, which made Wonwoo smile, as Mingyu too smiled while reminiscing about the past. Mingyu sighed, and said,

"You know, she was the most important person in my life..." Mingyu said, and Wonwoo could feel the atmosphere start to become more serious and solemn.

"And now that she's gone..." Wonwoo could here Mingyu's voice starting to crack, and looked up again to see silent tears rolling down his boyfriend's cheeks.

"I'm lost, Wonwoo-ah." the taller choked out, through his tears.

Wonwoo had never been able to stomach watching Mingyu suffer, or be in pain, let alone cry. Wonwoo stopped playing with his buttons and wrapped his arm around his boyfriend's torso,

"She was my everything. She guided me through life, but now that she's gone, I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't know if I can find the right path in life.. I'm scared I'm going to mess up so bad one day... And so, I'm stuck in this moment in my life.. I don't want to think about the future, but I don't want to think about the past..." Mingyu said, his voice shaking and Wonwoo had begun to tear up,

"I'm lost without her... So ing lost." Mingyu repeated, and all Wonwoo could do was hold him. 

"She's still there, Mingyu-ah.. She's still guiding you from up there," Wonwoo said, looking up to the sky, "In the sky that you love and appreciate so much... She's your star, your light in the darkness that'll guide you in life"

Silence along with the occasional shaky breath of Mingyu filled the air.

"And I know you may seem lost now.. But I'm also here for you, I hope you know that. Your mom will always be by your side, and the best thing you can do for her, is show the world the amazing son she raised." the other said, as Mingyu listened, "Make her proud. Continue to smile because you know she would've wanted you to be happy..."

The couple laid there, holding each other while Mingyu mourned and finally let the tears fall. He didn't have to put up a facade like he did with his brothers. He let Wonwoo see the weak him, he let himself breakdown infront of the boy he loved. They didn't speak, words weren't needed at the moment. Wonwoo let Mingyu cry, slightly happy that he finally released all the bottled up sadness inside of him. After a few minutes, Mingyu managed to calm himself down, still taking sharp breaths through the tears, and his eyes were bloodshot red. When he had calmed down enough to form coherent words, the boy began speaking, looking up to the sky

"Mom..." he said, "I have the best freakin' boyfriend, don't I?" Mingyu said with a smile, as he hugged Wonwoo tighter. Wonwoo couldn't help but smile at his words,

"Mom..." he continued, "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you from that monster..." Wonwoo could almost hear his boyfriend's heart break as he addressed the situation,

"But I will protect my happiness.. I'll smile everyday, just like you would've wanted me to." Mingyu said, "and I also can't help it when I'm dating someone like this," the continued as he once again tightened the hug,

"I will make you proud, Mom, I promise... I'll make you happy and proud, so that you can look down on me from Heaven and smile thinking that I'm your son." 

Mingyu went on to talk to his mother, making promises, thanking her, apologizing to her, bragging to her about Wonwoo. After talking for a while, Mingyu and Wonwoo began to grow tired. Wonwoo's eyelids barely remained open as Mingyu was too drifting off to sleep. The couple intertwined, underneath warm blankets, their calm breathing now in unison. Mingyu kissed Wonwoo's forehead and whispered,

"I'm so lucky to have you." before placing a sweet kiss on his lips, which Wonwoo smiled into. 

When the kiss broke, they laid there, staring into each other's eyes, as Wonwoo whispered back,

"I think the same thing everyday."

The couple smiled and then slowly drifted off into slumber as the stars of the night sky acted as their night lights. Their sleep was sweet and uninterrupted, until the next morning when they woke up, only to be surrounded by 8 boys.

"Yah~, Mingyu-ah... On the roof, really?" Soonyoung asked,

Mingyu squinted his eyes in confusion, but mainly from the blinding sunlight. Wonwoo had woken up too, and was now rubbing his tired eyes with his sweater paws as he yawned, cutely.

"What?" Mingyu said, "We just spent the night up here."

"Wow, the whole night?" Seungcheol said, and Mingyu finally caught on to what they were hinting at. Minghao looked at their makeshift bed of blankets and said,

"You could've atleast had the decency to do it on a bed-" 

"Yah! I'll kill you!" Mingyu said as he quickly got up from the blankets and began chasing his best friend. 

Wonwoo sat tangled in the blankets, blinking away his sleepiness, completely lost in the situation.
