Warning: Minor swearing. Suggestion of domestic violence. This chapter contains angst and self-doubt that may be triggering. 

This sort of thing happens fairly often. Jinwoo would say, maybe around once a month. The second time it happened, Jinwoo was surprised, but nevertheless took Seungyoon in and soothed him with all his heart. Then one day, it was as if Seungyoon decided to make it into a habit, and Jinwoo couldn’t help but lecture him disapprovingly, scolding and asking him whether he was a girl having her monthly-period. Even so, the wounded expressions and lifelessness displayed on Seungyoon’s face made Jinwoo feel uneasy every time. Jinwoo may bark out those words, but he will always look after Seungyoon until the situation gets better.

The truth is, Jinwoo knows very well that Seungyoon really has no other place to go.

Seungyoon is most definitely a romantic. A romantic if you put it nicely, but realistically speaking, a fool. So foolish that you would want to swear at and beat some sense into him. He puts love before everything else and is frustratingly tolerant. His relationship with Minho continues like a speeding train without brakes even though they often fight, to the point where Seungyoon will leave to go to Jinwoo’s at least several times per month. On so many occasions did Jinwoo tell him to break it off with the other if the relationship is really so tedious, but of course, stubbornness always gets the best of Seungyoon.

‘At a guess, perhaps he clings onto all his past and current existing relationships so stubbornly like this.’

“Jinwoo hyung, I think this is a bit too big for me.”

“If you are going to complain then don’t wear it. My clothes are way too precious to be lent to someone who talks too much.”

“Hyung you haven’t grown much in terms of height but it seems like your body keeps getting bigger? Have you been working out? When I wear your clothes it feels like you are much bigger than me, even though I am taller than you.” 

“Do you ever think it may be because you are too skinny?”

“There’s nothing wrong with that if I am eating well and living well.”

“Funny, running away from home in the middle of the night, coming here drenched in rain like a pathetic child is your definition of eating and living well?”

“Actually I’ve always found it rather romantic to be out in the rain without an umbrella on a rainy day. Didn’t you know that? “

“Wow, seriously Seungyoon, bull just rolls off your tongue. You are unbelievable.” 

With a sweet idiotic smile on his face Seungyoon raised his arms and began to put on the jumper, when all of a sudden Jinwoo cuffed him around his head. Seungyoon stopped awkwardly.
