Ilhoon is now wrapped with several layers of blankets as Hyunsik insists him to stay warm.

“Stay with Changsub for a while.” Hyunsik handed him the cup of warm milk and ruffles his hair when he slowly nodded in agreement.

He found comfort in whatever Hyunsik does.

“Does your mom know that you are here?” Changsub asked with the concerned face and Ilhoon shakes his head. He saw Hyunsik is worrying that he doesn’t speak a word since he arrived.

“I-”

“It’s okay. You don’t have to say a thing if you don’t want to.” Hyunsik put his arms around the younger as he draws a circle on the younger’s back and this is comforting too.

“When are you leaving?” Changsub asked as he handed the bags to Hyunsik but Hyunsik does not take them.

“I am not.”

“You mean you are gonna sleep here with Ilhoon? I don’t have extra bed other than a couch! You two won’t fit on the couch.” Changsub realizes he asked unnecessary question when he receive the glare from Hyunsik and saw a blush on Ilhoon’s cheeks.

Ilhoon has the feeling that Changsub is giving them time to talk which they do need. He really wanted to talk to Hyunsik about everything. He wanted to ask about the kiss, and his feelings for Ilhoon and what he thinks about him, oh he can’t stand the thought about Hyunsik thinking that he is ill too.

“Do you feel like sleeping yet?” He flinched to the voice coming beside him. It’s Hyunsik, getting in the bed that they are supposed to sleep together after dimming the lights.

Okay, it sounds a lot worse that Ilhoon expected.

“N-no.” Ilhoon answered. He noticed how his voice does not come out after crying and shouting at his mother. Ilhoon is so not proud of what he’s done today.

“Hey, come here.” Hyunsik grabs Ilhoon by hi
