JR's POV

His words don't make any sense to me. How can he claim such a ridiculous thing? I chuckle, but Zelo's serious look makes me stop- is

he perhaps telling the truth? To test whether he is or not, I say:

"Stop making fun of me. It's hard enough on me." Yet still, Zelo keeps his serious expression on, shaking his head violently. His hands

grab my shoulders.

"No. No, no, no. You don't get it." His glare entwines with mine.  "He really does. What Yongguk hyung told you- it was all a lie. We

played a trick on you. Ren loves you, but we needed to get him away from you. He wouldn't have followed us otherwise." He leaves me

speechless. Then, my fist automatically clenches and hits his cheek, making him stumble backwards a few steps. Zelo holds his hurting

cheek, but he looks up to me without any sign of anger or surprise showing. He spits.

"I deserved that, I guess."

"Hell yes you did." I gradually release the tension from my body, miraculously I'm not truly angry at all.

"But you believe me now?" I don't need to give it more thought, my heart that's still longing for Ren tells me to believe Zelo. It's beating

joyfully.

"Yeah."

Zelo grins contentedly , then turns and signalizes me to follow him.

"What are we waiting for then?"

***

The younger boy leads me to a huge white building in the central part of the city. It looks intimidating and serious, like some kind of a

big company's headquarter, it even has security persons wearing black suits guarding the entrance. I almost expect an upcoming fight

since it seems too unrealistic to just walk in there, but surprisingly, no one holds us back. I wonder what exactly is going on here. I give

Zelo a questioning glance.

"They won't do a thing since they know me. But they better not realize who you are before I bring you to Ren." That sounds convincing,

and I instinctively pull up my hood to cover my face. Who knows how well this building is being observed. I can't risk being hindered

from seeing Ren at this point- he's too close to fail now. I can't wait to see him. Yet the closer we get, the more uneasy I grow. What if

Zelo lied? A mean inner voice says, and my doubts start to rise. If Ren doesn't love me anymore and I go see him nevertheless,

wouldn't it just rip old wounds open? Wasn't I just at the point of letting go? You weren't. I know that. So it doesn't matter what happens

now. We turn around a corner after getting out of a lift, now hurrying down a corridor as white as the whole complex itself. We arrive

way too quickly, I'm completely unprepared.

"Here we are. I think you might want to go in alone...But hurry. My hyungs won't be able to keep them from fixing the cameras forever."

 Cameras? I want to ask him a thousand questions, but they all disappear from my mind when Zelo opens the door- and I step in,

facing a wide eyed Ren sitting on a bed. I can't control my actions anymore. With shivering knees, I approach him, the prettiest being

on earth, supposedly mine- and break down in front of him.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I-" My voice breaks as I burst into tears, and Ren's picture blurs to a point where I can't tell what expression he

makes. Just don't let him reject me. If it's that, I couldn't take it.

Ren's POV

I've been waiting nervously ever since they told me that Zelo was looking for JR. They said he wouldn't take long and that I'd see him

today. I didn't believe them. I thought they lied to me again. I didn't see any reason for JR to come back.

However, here he is, crouching down in front of me, shaken by quiet sobs, and I can't move at all. He apologized to me, and I wonder

for what. For being the most important person in my life? For making my life worth living? Then, why is he crying? And why is his aura

so bright while he's in that much despair? I snap out of my trance and glance around, unsure of what to do- it has been too long. Too

long for me to handle him right. Didn't he throw me away? He did, so why is he here, begging for forgiveness?  My mind might not know

what to do, but luckily, my body does. It moves on its own as I climb down the bed, crawl towards JR, and pull him into an embrace. At

first he struggles, wanting to get away while constantly mumbling things like: 'No, you don't deserve me' and 'I'm so sorry.'. I don't want

to see him apologizing like that.

"Hyung, it's okay, don't apologize, I'm right here-" He relaxes hearing those words, even though they come out hoarse and silent. I wrap

my arms around him even tighter and bury my face in his hair. We stay that way until his body starts shaking less violently.

"Ren, I- " What he wants to say is what I want to hear, but I can't believe it just by hearing it. I need proof. A real proof. I start to tear up

as well as I demand:

"Hyung, if you still love me, then kiss me. Right now."

-----------------------------------

Ah, it's a miracle~ I wrote.

Just couldn't let you guys wait any longer >.< I can't even apologize enough for making you wait that long. I'm still determined to finish this.

So, enjoy. (Even though the quality might be suffering a bit ._.)
