withered flowers; evanesce

Description

Flowers are beautiful, aren't they? Sometimes they bloom in the harshest of conditions, fighting for the chance to paint the world in a myriad of colours. What matters is that they survive and continue to bloom, regardless how difficult things may be.

Akin to the love Hyukjae and Donghae feel for each other. Not a single day goes by where they aren't thankful they'd crossed paths, that their lives are in sync from the moment they knew each other. They have a friendship like no other, one envied by most. There is so much love in this friendship. So much.

But you see, flowers wither. No matter how pretty, fragrant, or full of life they are, even the most beautiful things die. They're left to turn to dust, alive only in the memory of those who've seen them, heard them, smelled them, touched them and maybe even tasted them.

But love.

Love never dies.

Foreword

entered this for the #eunhaetopia contest hmmm i've never entered a writing contest before (plus idk i'm not very confident in my writing but hey)

angst all the way. literally not fluffy at all. you're going to cry like a little , this i know, because that's exactly what i did while writing this. five mothering long chapters and an epilogue. enjoy, you sadists

based on evanesce by super junior (obviously)

non-AU (kinda)

ALSO!!! HONESTLY!! i didn't beta this and i didn't really add any overly intricate details/flowery language so it's pretty bland and straightforward to me (meh) but the storyline is mostly there so.. i'm sorry i'll get to editing it soon!! i've been busy sigh :-(

nonetheless i hope you enjoy!!

Chapter 6: I've read this for the nth time and still made me bawl my eyes out just the same. I really love how you wrote this angsty story about our favorite EunHae. 🥹🥰🥹

Chapter 6: I embarked on this journey with clear mind that it was angst, as you mentioned initially. I came prepared and yet it was still hurtful.
My favorite moment is when they’re on bed and Hyukjae tells that he loves Donghae.
Knowing he’s ill, it makes it sound different and at the same time you know for Donghae it sounds the same because he’s still clueless.
My second favorite moment is when Donghae peppers Hyukjae with kisses and gives him a kiss on the lips.
You managed to portray what they mean for each other and having Hyukjae asking Donghae “let me go” was so sad… the epilogue gives you some peace of mind because you can see Donghae is doing well regardless of this huge void he gotta deal with.
Truly well delivered, now I will be sad for the rest of the day🥲✌🏻

Chapter 6: I cried. So much. This reminded me of my aunt. She was everything to me cause she was there for me on my worst and my best. She got diagnosed with cancer and on her last day.. i wasn't there weith her because i didn't know and i had homework. I got a call saying she.. left. Andi cant help but regret not visiting her on that day. It was a thursday and i was wearing my schools uniform, i remember it so clearly it hurts

Chapter 6: Wow, I guess I really needed a good cry. This is so heartbreaking, and it reminds me of losing my grandmother. She was tired, but fine, and suddenly everything went to hell and we lost her. I feel Donghaes pain, the anger and frustration of not being able to do anything but watch. I might be a wreck right now, but thank you <'33
