Having not heard from Yunho for a while, Yixing was beginning to get worried 

He knew that Yunho was probably planning something. The man couldn't go this long without talking to Yixing and not have something up his sleeve. For Yixing this was worrying for him. It meant that Yunho had probably planned something big and the next time he wanted to see Yixing, it was going to be revealed. 

As a result of this thought, all Yixing wanted to do right now was run away, crawl in a hole and live there for the rest of his life. He wanted out now. He wanted to just go away and forget about everything, forget about everything he had done to people in the past. But he couldn't though. He had to stay and think of something. He had to protect the others as much as he could. He had to get Kyungsoo, the innocent party in all of this, out of here and as far away as possible. 

How he was going to do that was beyond him.

"You look troubled" Joonmyun said one night, wondering out into the kitchen to find a very much wide away Yixing sat at the table with a drink in his hand
"I had trouble sleeping that's all" Yixing replied as Joonmyun took a seat across from him 
"I could tell by the way you kept walking into things as you tried to walk out of the room" he said making Yixing cringe and mutter an apology before he took another sip of his drink. 

"How's your stomach?" Joonmyun asked 
"Feeling a lot better. The bruise is also fading away so I should be back to normal and you guys can stop babying me now" Yixing replied as Joonmyun laughed and Yixing looked up, frowning at the expression on Joonmyun's face. 

"Why do you always look at me like that?" he asked and watched as Joonmyun's smile turned into a frown 
"Like what?"
"You're always looking at me with a smile on your face. If it's not a smile then your eyes are always glistening" Yixing explained but the frown remained on Joonmyun's face. 

"This is how I usually stare at people" he muttered 
"No it's not. Not even with Jongin. I've known you and the others long enough now to know that the way you look at me is definitely not the way you look at the others" Yixing replied and could feel his chest begin to tighten. He didn't want to do this to Joonmyun. He had to though, it was for his own good. 

"Oh" was all Joonmyun said and slowly went to reach for Yixing's hand, but retracted when he saw Yixing move his hands away 
"Yixing I-" 
"No. Dont. Just stop" Yixing said but Joonmyun was not going to give up that easily. 

"But Yixi-" 
"No Joonmyun! Please. We can't" Yixing interrupted once again but Joonmyun was not giving up 
"Come on Xing, don't say we can't. We haven't even tried" he said and knelt down in front of Yixing.

"But we can't Joonmyun we can't even try" Yixing said quietly and tried to push Joonmyun away from him so he could be left alone. Joonmyun however is a stubborn man, determined to get his message across. If Yixing wasn't going to listen to him, he was going to have to show him another way. So it wasn't really a spur of the moment thing when Joonmyun pulled Yixing in for a kiss. What surprised Joonmyun was how Yixing slowly began kissing him back. Was he finally going to accept Joonmyun's feelings? 

"No Joonmyun" Yixing said, breaking the kiss and pushing him away 
"Please... please just stop. We can't do this. Just leave me alone" and it was there that Joonmyun realised that he was going to go nowhere with Yixing. 

"Fine then. If that's what you want" and with that went back to his room, leaving Yixing there alone in the kitchen. 

It was a minute that he was sat there alone did Yixing realise what had happened and everything came crashing down on him. When he realised what he had done, he had to smack his hand over his mouth to stop his cries from being heard by everyone else...
