“Come here Mir~ I won’t hurt you, you know I love you right?” A quiet voice behind Mir spoke.

“No, this is just a dream an awful nightmare.” Mir whispered to himself as footsteps came closer to the spot where Mir was hiding. The male stopped right I front of him, kneeling immediately as he saw Mir’s face.

“Don’t cry Mireu, everything will be alright as long as you are with me and nobody else. You are mine Mir...” Mir clenched his eyes shut as he felt the slightly older male grabbing his chin forcing him looking his way.

“Cheondung, please…” Mir begged he wanted so badly to wake up right now, those nightmares hunted him almost every night; he would always wake up with a loud scream and sweaty body – thank god that his parents aren't home most of the time.

“Only mine…” Cheondung smirked.

Mir woke up immediately a loud gasp leaving his dry lips, it was one of those nightmares again, another exhausting nightmare leaving him all breathless and tired. The number of times Mir had woken to the same exhausting nightmare was uncountable; it will be always the same - running, hiding and being scared that he could be found wherever he hides and even though he hides very well this Cheondung from his dream will find him and whisper the same exact words every single time.

The male brought his legs closer to his chest, chin resting between his legs, he is exhausted he needs break, but he could not escape that easily. A slight knock on the door prevented him from thinking negative thoughts. With a simple ‘come in’ the door was soon opened; his mother was standing there looking at his lovely son with a smile on her face, but as soon as she saw her son looking lifelessly she hurriedly come closer to Mir and hugged the boy.

“Again that nightmare?” His mother asked quietly, hugging her boy tightly.

“I wish it could stop, mom… I feel that it is slowly breaking me apart.” Mir said tears forming in his eyes.

“Mireu don’t say those kind of things, everything will be okay. I’m here for you, but if you want me to help you I should know about the nightmare that hunts my precious angel.” His mother cooed combing Mir’s hair with her fingers.

“It’s always the same…” Mir started, slowly. “I would always run in an endless hallway and even though I find some place to hide Cheondung will find me immediately.”

“What do you mean? Why does Cheondung hunts you?” His mother interrupted almost immediately.

“You know that we had some conflicts.” Mir said as he released the hug only to press his back against the headboard, Mir’s mother could only nod as he saw her little boy struggling talking about it. “But those conflicts were because he liked me, more precisely loved me but I couldn’t return his feeling because I liked someone else. For me Cheondung was my best friend and brother I couldn’t see him as something more than that.” Mir stopped just to catch his breath, his mother was listening to everything.

She was about to say something before Mir cut her off. “I know that we had that talk about me liking men, but I’m not into girls, mom. I’m your only son and I know that you want me to marry a pretty girl and have kids, but those exist in the fairy tales. And someday when I meet the perfect prince for me I would adopt a little girl and name her after you; she will be the perfect daughter mom.” Mir’s face was already in tears as he choked on his last words, his parents didn’t like the idea of liking the same as his, but slowly as they talked and talked they agreed.

“I know that when you find that man that will melt you with his smile and kindness - just like your father did to me - I would be there
