"Taekwoon?"

Jaehwan crossed his eyebrows and helped him up.

 

"J-Jaehwan..."

Taekwoon weakly smiled and touched Jaehwan's face.

 

"I'm back home."

He sighed in content and closed his eyes.

 

-----

 

"Taekwoon hyung~"

Jaehwan softly sang into Taekwoon's ears when he saw his eyes opening.

 

"...I-I'm back? It must be a dream, isn't it?"

He shot up from the bed and looked around his surroundings.

 

"You aren't dreaming. I'll show you." 

Jaehwan slapped his face with alittle force and smiled.

 

Taekwoon immediately glared at him for awhile but chuckled afterwards.

 

"I missed you, even though we just didn't see each other for a few hours."

He smiled in embarassment and hugged Jaehwan.

 

"My father already registered me to Loen High."

Taekwoon looked down to the ground and sighed.

 

"What should we do then?"

"I-I don't really know how to handle this either..."

He looked at Jaehwan and slightly smiled.

 

"But I'm just glad we're back together again."

He shyly held Jaehwan's hands.

 

"I have to go somewhere. Talk to you later, alright?"

Jaehwan pulled his hand away rushed to the door.

 

"Where are you going?"

"Hakyeon's having a dance competition right now and I've already promised to be there to cheer for him."

He exitted the room and quickly rushed to the location of the competition as fast as he could.

 

-----

 

"Congratulations."

Wonshik ran into the room and hugged Hakyeon tightly from behind.

 

"T-Thanks. But it's just the second round, I still have two or three more rounds to go."

Hakyeon smiled at him and took a deep breath.

 

"Don't take it too hard, alright?"

Wonshik looked at him at the mirror and wiped away Hakyeon's sweat with his sleeves.

 

"Yah, my is pespiration so disgusting and you used your sleeve to wipe it away."

"Anything for you."

He chuckled and rested his chin on Hakyeon's shoulder.

 

"...I have something to tell you."

Hakyeon looked at the mirror and sighed.

 

"Jaehwan called me earlier on and told me that Taekwoon went missing. I'm really worried."

He played with his fingers and puffed his cheeks.

 

"W-What happened?! Why would he suddenly go missing?"

"He actually called me yesterday and said he was leaving the school because his parents were planning to register to Loen High. So he told me that he decided to run away from home. So I guess he really did leave."

He took a deep breath and sat up straight.

 

"But I need to focus on the competition first. I'll call Jaehwan later."

"Good luck. It must be tiring."

Wonshik gently pecked Hakyeon's lips and made his way to the door.

 

"I'll find you later. Bye."

He smiled and waved as he left the room.

 

Hakyeon stood up from his seat and looked at himself on the mirror.

 

"I can do it."

He smiled to himself and left the room to prepare for the next round.

 

When it was his turn, he confidently walked up the stairs to the stage.

 

When he looked at the audiences, he immediately spotted someone he was expecting.

 

It was Jaehwan.

 

He was standing beside Wonshik, brightly smiling and waving at him.

 

But his eyes were just stuck at Jaehwan.

 

He didn't know why either.

 

-----

 

Taekwoon was finally willing to get out of the bed and take a walk around the school.

 

He decided to head to the school office and check the name list of the students on the board outside. He looked from top to bottom...and saw his name.

 

"Jung Taekwoon."

He raised an eyebrow and looked at his name with his photo on top.

 

"I guess they haven't updated it yet."

He entered the office and searched for the staff working in there.

 

"Excuse me. Has the student list been updated?"

He asked one of the female staff.

 

"Nobody has left yet, so it isn't updated."

"Kamsahamnida."

He slightly bowed and left the office.

 

"...Nobody left?"

He crossed his eyebrows and strolled back to the dorm.

 

*Rring Rrring!*

 

He took out his phone and saw that he received a message from his father.

 

"Fighting"

He locked his phone and shoved it back into his pocket.

 

"...Appa kamsahamnida."

He softly muttered and smiled.

 

-----

 

"I've been staying bere for days...When are you going to wake up?"

Hongbin pouted and laid back on the chair.

 

"Just wake up already...You can scold me all you want, beat the crap out of me, slap me as hard as you want!"

He cried and held Sanghyuk's hand.

 

"Ugh..."

He stoned at that position.

 

Did he hear Sanghyuk speaking?

 

"D-Did you say something?"

He shot up from his seat and looked at him.

 

"W-Where am I?..."

 

-----

 

"Hyung!"

Jaehwan dashed across the room and hugged Hakyeon tightly.

 

"I've been waiting for you."

Hakyeon chuckled and patted his back.

 

Wonshik walked towards them and faked a smile. He did feel slightly jealous, but they were just good friends, nothing's wrong for them to hug.

 

"I have great news."

Jaehwan pulled away from the hug and took a deep breath.

 

"Taekwoon hyung is back."

"Really? That's great! B-But where did he go?"

"I have no idea either. But I'm so glad to see him back in the dorm."

He clasped his hands and brightly smiled.

 

"Wonshik ah, don't be shy. Come here."

Hakyeon gently held onto Wonshik's hand and dragged him over.

 

"This guy over here is just acting shy. He was kissing me all over my face before you even came!"

He chuckled and looked at Wonshik.

Wonshik awkwardly smiled in embarassment and hung his head down.

 

Does he really have to tell Jaehwan about it?

 

*Rring Rrring!*

 

Hakyeon slightly jumped and answered the phone call.

 

"Hello? Ah, yes I am."

He slightly nodded as Jaehwan and Wonshik looked at him.

 

"...What?"

Hakyeon widened his eyes in shock.

 

"A-Alright. I'll be there as soon as possible."

He ended the call and bit his bottom lip.

 

"What's wrong?"

Wonshik placed his hands over Hakyeon's shoulders and looked at him on the mirror worriedly.

 

"I have to go to the hospital."

Hakyeon shot up from his seat and crossed his eyebrows.

 

"Hyung, what's wrong? Did something happen to Hyuk?"

Jaehwan looked at him and slightly frowned.

 

"T-The doctor said that he woke up...But he can't remember anything..."

Hakyeon quickly grabbed his phone and ran towards the door.

 

"What about the competition? You've already gone this far."

Wonshik and Jaehwan followed him.

 

"Hyuk is the most important person ever to me. I don't care if I lose the competition, I just want to see him now. He needs me."

He exitted the room and quickly took a cab to the hospital, along with Jaehwan and Wonshik.

 

-----

 

"Hyuk!"

Hakyeon dashed into the ward and ran towards Sanghyuk.

 

"H-Hyuk..."

He smiled as a tear rolled down his cheek.

 

"...Who are you?"

Sanghyuk looked at him and slightly tilted his head.

 

"I'm Hakyeon...Cha Hakyeon. Hakyeon hyung! Don't you remember me?!"

Hakyeon cried as he held his hand.

 

"I-It sounds familiar...But I-"

"You have to remember me! I'm Hakyeon hyung! Hakyeon hyung!"

He cried once again and burst into tears.

 

"Hyung, don't force him...He just recovered. He needs time to remember, alright?"

Wonshik pulled Hakyeon away and hugged him.

 

"I-I'm sorry...I just can't remember anything..."

Sanghyuk looked at Hakyeon worriedly and sighed.

 

"Hyukkie ah...How can you not remember your hyung? I cared for you the most...I treated you better than the rest...And I treated you like my family member..."

Hakyeon cried once again as he hugged Wonshik tightly.

 

"Stop forcing him already hyung...He won't remember anything if you keep on forcing him to."

Hongbin softly spoke and sat on the chair beside the bed.

 

"This is all your fault! Everything wouldn't have happened if you didn't want revenge at all! I even lost the competition just to come all the way here to see Hyuk!"

Hakyeon pulled away from Wonshik and glared at Hongbin as he growled at him.

 

Wonshik looked at him.

 

He didn't know about Hongbin and couldn't see him at all, but why were the others able to see him?

 

Hakyeon had forgotten that Wonshik didn't know anything.

 

"Everything is all ruined Lee Hongbin...It's all ruined by you."

He walked to Hongbin and forcefully pinned him to the wall.

 

"Enough is enough. I just want you to leave all of us alone, especially Hyuk."

"H-Hakyeon hyung...You don't understand...I'm willing to change my ways!"

Hongbin looked into his eyes in fear and slightly shook his head.

 

He couldn't even move a single inch at all.

 

"I don't care. Everything has already been ruined by you, aren't you contented enough, huh?"

Hakyeon shot him a death glare as he lifted his fist up.

 

"H-Hakyeonnie hyung! Don't do that!"

Sanghyuk immediately cried and grabbed Hakyeon's hand.

 

Everyone looked at him in shock.

 

"You...You just called me Hakyeonnie hyung!"

Hakyeon immediately sat beside him and brightly smiled.

 

"I was just joking about it. I didn't lose my memories at all."

Sanghyuk playfully chuckled and hugged Hakyeon tightly.

 

"D-Don't hit Hongbin hyung. I believe he'll change."

He pulled away from the hug and smiled.

 

"But Hyukkie...What if he harms one of us again? Especially you..."

"I know he won't. I trust him. He'll change his ways."

Hongbin looked at Sanghyuk and smiled in content.

 

He felt glad that at least someone trusts his words.

 

"...Fine."

Hakyeon pouted and folded his arms.

 

"I have to go outside for awhile."

Jaehwan suddenly spoke as he made his way out of the room.

 

"What's wrong with him?"

Hakyeon looked at Jaehwan worriedly.

 

He immediately glanced at Wonshik, since he might know why because he was standing right beside him the entire time.

 

"I don't know either. He was messaging Taekwoon hyung earlier on, that's all I know."

Wonshik shrugged and avoided eye contact with everyone.

 

"You guys don't have to stare at me like that you know..."

He chuckled awkwardly and shoved his hands into his pockets.

 

"I'll go check on him."

Hakyeon softly sighed and walked out of the room, searching for Jaehwan.

 

He saw him sitting on a chair talking on the phone. He jogged towards Jaehwan and sat beside him when he had ended the phone call.

 

"What's wrong?"

"I was just informing Taekwoon about it. Don't worry."

Jaehwan chuckled and shoved his phone back into his pocket.

 

"God...You made everyone so worried."

Hakyeon sighed in relief and hugged Jaehwan.

 

"Hyung...Aren't you upset? You just lost the competition just like that even though you've been training for weeks."

Jaehwan looked at him worriedly.

 

"It's okay. I'll do anything for Hyuk because he's the most important person I ever had in my life. I treat him like my family member and I don't want to ever lose him."

He looked at Hakyeon and slightly smiled.

 

Hakyeon always liked to think and care for others before himself. But the people he always cared the most for, were the people who had hurt his heart the most too.

 

"Hyung...Don't you think you're caring too much for others instead of yourself?"

He looked into Hakyeon's eyes.

 

He could clearly see that deep inside, he was insecure and depressed. Everyone would always think him as a annoying guy, but actually all he wanted was attention and love from others.

 

"Wah Jaehwannie~ Since when did you care so much for others?"

Hakyeon pinched his cheeks and chuckled.

 

He felt so happy that someone else cares for him other than Wonshik, who was always too busy to pay any attention to him.

 

"Hyung...It's too obvious."

He awkwardly chucked and hung hus head down as he faked a smile.

 

"Caring for others gives me happiness. Because I'm glad whenever I see them smile because of me."

He played with his fingers and looked up to Jaehwan.

 

"You feel the same way too when you see Taekwoon smiling because of you, don't you?"

Jaehwan slightly nodded and placed his hand over Hakyeon's shoulder.

 

"You can find me if you feel lonely or anything."

He chuckled and patted his back.

 

"...Thanks. Nobody ever realised my pain before. Even if they did, they didn't really cared about it and avoided me instead."

Hakyeon smiled and hugged him tightly.

 

He pulled away after a few seconds later and stood up from his seat.

 

"I'm going back to the ward room."

"I'll wait here for Taekwoon. He's on his way now."

Jaehwan brightly smiled to him and waved.

 

He turned away and saw Taekwoon running towards him from far. He stood up for his seat and waited for Taekwoon to reach him.

 

"How is he?"

Taekwoon panted heavily as he placed his hands on Jaehwan's shoulders and calmed down.

 

"He's fine right now."

"Go in."

He grabbed Jaehwan's hand and dragged him into the ward room.

 

All of them stared at the both of them, since they just barged into the room like that.

 

"Yah, don't scare me!"

Hakyeon frowned and folded his arms as Wonshik chuckled at how cute he was.

 

"Taekwoon hyung!"

Sanghyuk shouted at Taekwoon and brightly smiled.

 

"How are you?"

Taekwoon slightly smiled at him as he walked to him and sat beside him on the bed.

 

"I'm fine now. What about you?"

"...Great."

He ruffled Sanghyuk's hair and chuckled.

 

"Hakyeon ah, I need to speak to you."

Wonshik grabbed Hakyeon's hand and dragged him out of the room.

 

He did hold his hand gently this time, because he was aware of the scars and wounds and he didn't want to hurt him again.

 

"What's wrong?"

"Tell me."

He looked at him and spoke.

 

"What are-"

"The person you were shouting at just now. Who is he? Why can't I see him? Is he a ghost or something?"

Hakyeon's eyes widened.

 

He had totally forgotten about it. He thought everyone already knew about Hongbin.

 

"...Yes he is. His name is Hongbin, which is kind of obvious because we were all talking about his name earlier on."

He hung his head down and sighed.

 

"What did he do to everyone?"

"Many things. He pushed Hyukkie down the stairs, he cursed Jaehwan and he ing strangled me until I almost died!"

 

He felt a tear rolling down his cheek as he spoke.

 

"You don't know how much I hate him..."

He hugged Wonshik and burst into tears.

 

"I was so scared. If Hyuk didn't came in to save me, I would have been sent to the hospital or I might have even been dead by now."

Wonshik patted his back and Hakyeon's hair with his other hand.

 

"Why didn't you inform me about it?"

He pulled away and looked at Hakyeon worriedly.

 

"I-I didn't want you to worry about me because I know you're busy..."

His gaze softened and he sweetly smiled at Hakyeon.

 

"I'm sorry. I know I'm already counted as a bad boyfriend."

He hugged Hakyeon once again and gently kissed his forehead.

 

"No! You're the best boyfriend anyone could ever have!"

Hakyeon shyly chuckled and hugged him back tightly.

 

"Could you ask Hongbin to make himself visible to me? I want to see him."

He pulled away from the hug and looked at Wonshik as he softly sighed.

 

"Fine...Let's go back in then."

He interlaced their hands together and entered the ward room again.

 

"We're back."

He brightly smiled to everyone and walked back to their seats.

 

"Hongbin ah, can you make yourself visible to Wonshik? He wants to see you."

Everyone's eyes widened as they all looked at Wonshik.

 

"I-I thought everyone here already knew about Hongbin..."

Jaehwan crossed his eyebrows and looked over to Hakyeon.

 

"It's my fault. I never told him anything about Hongbin."

Hakyeon chuckled and placed his hand on top of Wonshik.

 

"Alright then..."

Hongbin walked towards Wonshik and placed his palm on his forehead, making himself visible. Wonshik slightly jumped up when he saw Hongbin slowly appearing right infront of him.

 

"...He doesn't look like a bad guy at all."

He softly whispered to Hakyeon, but mostly everyone could hear him because the room was so quiet.

 

"Hahah...But you're totally wrong. He may look handsome, but his heart is the opposite."

Hakyeon glanced over to Hongbin and rolled his eyes.

 

"Hyung. You seriously have to stop."

Sanghyuk got up from his bed and glared at Hakyeon, which made him really shocked.

 

"Han Sanghyuk. How could you talk back to me for a guy that has caused harm to almost all of us? Do you really believe that a guy like him will change his ways?"

Hakyeon shot up from his seat as well while Wonshik held his hand to prevent him from charging to Sanghyuk.

 

"Everyone needs a second chance. Everyone makes mistakes in their life. Even you too, hyung. How the hell would you know anything if you haven't given him a second chance at all?"

He shoved Wonshik's hand away and walked towards Sanghyuk.

 

"Why are you so willing to fight with me just for someone who almost killed everyone? You think it's worth it? If I gave him a second chance, he might even try to burn the entire school down!"

He grabbed Wonshik and Jaehwan's hand and dragged them out of the room.

 

"...It should all be my fault."

Taekwoon softly muttered as Hongbin and Sanghyuk looked over to him.

 

"Hyung...It's not. It's my fault. I was the one who wanted revenge and caused everything to be like this. I'm sorry."

Hongbin looked down to the ground and bit his bottom lip.

 

"Hyuk ah...Hakyeon hyung is right. It isn't worth it to fight with him for me. You should apologise to him."

He walked towards Sanghyuk and looked at him worriedly.

 

"Hakyeonnie hyung is a stubborn guy. I know he does all these because he cares for all of us, but he should really give you a second chance. I know you will change, because I believe in you."

Sanghyuk held his hand and smiled at him.

 

Taekwoon suddenly faked a cough and stared at the both of them, which they immediately pulled their hands away from each other and avoided eye contact.

 

"So...Are you going to apologise to your hyung?"

He slightly smiled and looked at Sanghyuk.

 

"I will apologise to him when I find the right time to do it."
