Sungmin didn’t make it to the hospital the next day. Somehow his schedule had been stuffed with appointments and he couldn’t get out of any of them, let alone get more than 3 hours of sleep that night. When the next day again came, he was beyond exhausted but he needed to see Hyukjae so badly that it hurt.

“Hey, Hyuk. I’m sorry I didn’t come yesterday, the schedule was crazy,” he explained to the immobile dancer while bending down and kissing his forehead tenderly.

“I missed you,” he sighed as he sat down in the chair once again and took the dancer’s hand in his.

“Teukie hyung asked me to say hi, he called us this afternoon. He misses you.”
