Star-CrossedAN: . I took so long updating. I am so busy. I'll be graduating this sem and I'm now applying to med school so I don't have any free time. But i had short break today and decided to make a little update (another thing to apologize for because this is SUPER SUPER SUPER SHORT).
Jeonghan looked so lost sitting on the bed, eyes flickering around the room as if taking in his surrounding. He was hugging himself tightly while tapping his foot on the hard stone floor.
"Are you alright?" the Prince asked.
"Yes. Just cold." The boy breathed out softly.
Slowly, he moved closer and put his arms awkwardly around Jeonghan, who turned to him with wide eyes at the contact. It was again a hasty move, yet at that moment he didn't stop himself.
