N comes home after a particularly exhausting and unexpected day to see Leo coming out of the kitchen with a small plate of what looked like a piece of cheesecake on his left hand and a spoon stuck in his mouth. 

"You look awful. "Leo commented in a muffled voice since the spoon is still in his mouth. 

N flops down on the couch, whining. "I feel awful too. "

"How come? "Leo asks, finally removing the spoon so that he can talk properly. "I thought you just went for some flowers with Woongeun for that Celebrity Bromance show? "

"Well, it was supposed to be that way until that kid tricked me. "N sounds a bit mad, which surprised the younger up. 

"What happened? "

"You see, after we finished getting those flowers, he said he's gonna take me to eat. But then it turned out that he has planned to trick me to play water sports. How cruel is that?! "N grumbles. 

Leo doesn't know whether to laugh or pity the leader. He knows how N is so scared of such things. He still remembers how pale the leader was when they went to a particular ride in an amusement park a few months after their debut. "So did you eat? "

"I ate, of course! But that's not important! "N says helplessly. Even though he looks angry, Leo couldn't help but feel that he's very adorable. 

"What's important then? "

"I told him that I'm really scared of water sports and I've even fainted once when I did it during a trip in high school but he still insist for us to try it. He didn't even budge! Isn't that very cruel? "N rants. 

"Of course. That's really is cruel. "Leo agrees. 

 "And do you know what's worse? "

"What? "

"He can't even swim and he still dares to try those water sports! How ridiculous is that?! "

"Very ridiculous. "Leo nods multiple times just to emphasize. 

N huffs, crossing his arms with a pout. "I regret agreeing for that show! "He exclaims. 

"But did you have fun? "

"Fun how? I felt like dying! See! My hands are still shaking! "N shakes his hands in front of Leo's face, trying to prove his point. 

Leo laughs. "I see. Here, have some cake. "He scoops some cake off his plate with the spoon and held it out for N. 

N eagerly ate it. "Yummy! "

Leo takes another spoonful and feed him again and again as he secretly crosses the distance between them until the two of them are literally huddles together. N doesn't seem to mind. 

When the cake is finished, Leo places the empty plate on the coffee table in front of them and let out a shocked gasp when N is suddenly sprawled across his lap. 

"Thanks... "the leader mumbles. 

Leo carded N's soft hair using his fingers. "No problem. I'm always here, okay?  I know I was ignorant but from now on, please keep in mind that you can depend on me as well. "

N hums. "Thanks, Taekwoonie... "
