Cry Out With My Heart and Soul

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I crossed the room to where I'd stripped my shirt and answered the phone without even looking at the caller ID.

"Hello?" I said groggily.

"Wookie! I've been trying to get ahold of you for ages! Where are you?" Said the voice on the other end of the line. 

"Who the hell is this?" I rubbed my eyes sleepily and began looking around for Yesung. I could've sworn he had slept next to me… "Yesung are you playing a prank on me?"

"Yesung? Who the hell is Yesung?"

"Well you should know, it's you!"

"Um… Wookie… this is Henry. I don't know who Yesung is."

Suddenly, I was wide awake. "HENRY??" I yelled, almost loud enough to wake the dead. I heard a thunk from the other side of the room. I put my weight on my right foot so I could lean sideways to see what it was. "Yesung? That you?"

"Dammit, Wookie I told you it's Henry!"

"Shut up for a second!" I said to him.

"Oh wow… that hurt." Yesung moved his way into a sitting position with his legs crossed. I bent over him as he was rubbing his head. "Oh… you don't know, do you?"

"Know what?!" I said, startled.

"I can't really sleep in the same place for more than like, twenty minutes. I get up and go to another bed, the floor, or in this case, under a dresser…"

I paused at first, then started laughing. "What?" Henry said on the other side of the phone. "What's so funny?"

"You're a weird one, Yesung." I smiled and ruffled his shaggy black hair.

"Wookie! Talk to me!"

"Dammit what do you want Henry?" I stood up and began pacing the room.

"Who the hell is Yesung?"

I eyed Yesung, who was brushing his teeth in the bathroom. Where he got a toothbrush, I don't know. Maybe Carol brought some up after seeing we had no luggage. "He's…ah… He's my boyfriend."

"WHAT?!?" His scream almost knocked me to the ground. I switched ears.

"That's my ear…"

"I dumped you yesterday and you already have another boyfriend?! Had you been cheating on me?!"

"What if I was?"

"Where the are you?"

"How should I know?"

"Hmm. I don't know, just tell me the name of the damn town!"

"No can do."

"Why's that?"

"It doesn't have a name."

"Come again?"

"This town doesn't have a name."

"What kind of bastards don't name a town?!"

"The nicest people you've ever met in your entire life."

"The hell?"

"I quite like it here, actually, now that I think about it."

"I will find you. And I'm going to bring you home and away from that bastard, Yesung."

"Aw… Don't be so mean to Yesung. It makes me cry." Yesung looked over at me when he heard his name, then he finished brushing his teeth and began brushing his hair.

"That er doesn't deserve you. I do."

"That why you broke up with me?" Yesung looked over again.

Henry paused at this. "Look, Wookie… I… I'll come get you. We can make up, and –"

"No."

"What was that?"

"Did I stutter? I said no."

"Don't you miss us?"

"Of course I do. But you ended it, so that means you've moved on, right?" I didn't give him time to answer. "So that means it's my turn to move on, too. Goodbye, Henry."

"Wookie, wait…" I hung up and tossed the phone on the bed. Soon after, I felt a set of arms wrap around my middle, holding me in place. Yesung rested his head against my back. It felt nice… his arms holding my own in place, his bare chest against my back… I felt his heartbeat, he was so close.

"Wookie…"

"Yesung…?" Suddenly, his name rolled so perfectly off my tongue. I could almost believe the lie I'd told Henry about Yesung being my boyfriend.

"He's not worth it."

"Wha…?"

"I could hear… the way you talked to him… it seemed like you loved him. Not by the words you said, but by your tone of voice. I don't want to tell you who you can and can't love, though, because I've barely known you a day. But please don't go chasing after a guy like him."

I found myself shocked at Yesung's words. He'd known me a day and he already knew me well enough to detect the slightest change of tone in my voice? I had to admit, I was impressed. "Yesung… I promise I won't go chasing after him." I felt him nod against my back, and then I realized he was crying. He loosened his grip on me and I turned to face him. 

Then… I don't know where it came from.

Chapter 25: With all the roller-coaster emotions in the entire story the ending was pretty perfect. I liked it that Yewook just had a wonderful, relaxing day and could looking forward to a future together where they will be at each other's side, loving and supporting each other. They fought long and Wookie deserves a partner who treasures him with all he has to give. A beautiful ending. Thank you for sharing and keeping this story here for so long ❤️❤️

Chapter 24: I'm confused about Henry now. I mean I'm glad he's finally ready to let Wookie go, but if he wanted him to be happy why he didn't let him go way sooner? With all his psycho acts and maniac behavior, it comes to his mind that he only wants Wookie to be happy, now? This guy is insane. I'm happy Wookie is free for Yesung now, but I really wanted Henry to regret what he did to him and almost destroyed him. If Henry didn't get a proper punishment then he should give Ryeowook a proper apologize. Wookie deserves it. At least this nightmare will be over and we know Yeye will treat Ryeonggu way better than Henry ever did. Thank you for sharing this ❤️

Chapter 23: I was really hoping for Wookie to open up to Yesung about his true feelings himself. But obviously Yeye was fed up of waiting and thought now or never. But it's sad that Henry already destroyed Wookie self confidence that much, that he never imagined he himself could have a chance with Yesung and is the person of his heart. Wookie needs someone who will shower him with love and Yesung is just perfect for this. Thank you for writing ❤️

Chapter 22: Poor Wookie. Get well soon and then tell Yeye about all your feelings inside. This kind of horror ride must end so Wookie can live his life happy and with people around who will do good to him. Thanks again ❤️

Chapter 21: I can imagine that this is how Wookie must feel inside. Running out of battery. Totally exhausted and his entire world falling down. Hope he will feel better soon, and with Henry staying away from him. Thank you ❤️

Chapter 20: A pity Wookie gives up that easy. He should go out and fight for Yesung. It's sad he has so low self confidence, but I blame Henry for this. Anyway, thank you for this ❤️

Chapter 19: Oh Wookie, stop being a coward and open up to Yeye. Maybe you will get a nice surprise He never imagined why Yesung gave him his number? Or why Sungie was searching for him during the months? There is a reason, Wookie. You just need to listen. Thank you as always ❤️

Chapter 18: Henry is a psycho. Wookie should call the police and close the chapter of his past with him. Yesung is in so much ways on a different level than that jerk. Think wise Wookie. Thank you for sharing ❤️

Chapter 17: Great, Henry is going to ruin the mood again >_>
I was about to say what a lucky child Wookie is because getting his car fixed for free. But obviously he needs such good moments in life, because in a blink of an eye Henry is back to destroy everything. It's time for Wookie to cut the lines with him. Thank you again ❤️

Chapter 16: I can't understand why, Wookie is doing this to himself. This wasn't the first time Henry treated him like but he wanted to be back to this jerk just because he wanted to forget about Yesung. Worse forget Yesung so the older wouldn't get hurt anymore. Wookie definitely needs help to get away from this toxic person. And goddammit Henry needs to get punished for all his wrong doings in the past. Hope Wookie finally can realize that Yesung can be a, safe place, a safe home for him. Thank you for this longer chapter ❤️
