Jiho looked himself in the mirror, touching the glass with his left hand and sliding it down, being really unhappy with himself. He felt like a failure, honestly. They didn't won and it made him pissed off and he felt like he failed the whole group with his work. He always overreacted, but he had so much pressure, so maybe it was normal. Kyung had to comfort him always, because the others were afraid to. When Jiho was like that, nobody wanted to make him even more mad.

Kyung was the only one to know him so well that he could make Jiho calm down, to get away from the self-hate he felt after failing.

Kyung knew Jiho and knew how to help.

Kyung didn't like to get help, but Kyung's help was worth of gold in those situations. He didn't want Jiho to do anything stupid. Jiho didn't know how much he should have appreciated him.

Kyung opened the door of the room Jiho was in and sighed, saying nothing and walking slowly next to Jiho without any fast moves or anything that would annoy Jiho even more. "Hi", he whispered and took a chair and sat next to the younger boy who was slightly sniffing in front of the mirror.

"I don't need your ing help Kyung, I can handle this", Jiho said, rising his broken voice and hitting his hand on the table. "I can I promise", he said, lowing his voice so the brokeness wasn't so clear.

"I know you can handle this Jiho, I know you can. You don't need me right now but I need to talk to you, I need you to think clearly. I need you to calm down and speak to me", Kyung said with a calmig, low voice and put his hand on Jiho's knee. "I know you can handle this."

"Yeah, I know it too, so why the are you even here anymore. Go yourself Kyung, I don't need you here", Jiho said loudly, almost yelling. Others would have been afrait of Jiho yelling to them, but Kyung knew he was gonna calm down. He knew he could do it, so he wasn't afraid.

"Because I need you to be the leader. You need to calm down and control yourself and stop yelling like a baby", Kyung said strongly as he stood up and pulled Jiho up too, making him face the mirror.

"I-", Jiho started with shame showing on his face, but Kyung didn't care about his explainings and talked over him. 

"Look at yourself. You are definetly not a failure", Kyung continued and turned Jiho again to face himself. "I like you like this, okay. I don't like failures, you are not a one, but please don't go this low. Don't hate youself over some stupid award. You being well is more important to me and it should be to you"

"But this is my fault we didn't win! And everyone wanted to win so bad and I am a failure", Jiho said as he put his hands in front of his face so Kyung couldn't watch him.

"Okay, sit back down, you didn't get my point", Kyung sighed and they sat down on the chairs they were before.

All Jiho wanted to was to know he could hande the situation. That's why Kyung told it to him. It was all Jiho needed to know, wanted to know at that moment, but still, the only one who could told it to him was Kyung.

Kyung was the one he had known for ten years, Kyung was the one he trusted when he needed to trust.

"You did good Jiho, you really did. It wasn't your fault we didn't win. Other groups were good too and we can't always win hey. What you are, is definetly not a failure", Kyung said and put his hand in Jiho's blonde hair. He ruffled the gently and tugged them a bit. 

"Do you think so?" Jiho asked, looking at Kyung in the eyes. 

"Yeah", Kyung replied and smiled to him.

"Then what am I?" Jiho asked, his face saddening again. Kyung really didn't want to see him sad.

"You are perfect Jiho. You are a perfect leader. You are doing good job", Kyung said and smiled calmingly to the younger, insecure boy.

Jiho turned to face Kyung straightly and looked at him for a moment, cupping his cheek. He leaned down so his lips were five centimeters apart from each other. Kyung could feel Jiho's warm breath against his lips.

"I need you to see that you can't always win. We can't always win. It is not your fault. Next time we'll do better. Don't stress about things like this", Kyung whispered. His breath hitched as Jiho's face got even closer.

"Do I make you nervous", Jiho asked, his voice had gotten much softer and they looked at each other in the eyes.

"No", Kyung lied. His heart was beating wildly in his chest and he was about to faint.

Jiho was so close to him.

"Did you lie to me like that before", Jiho asked, closing the small gap between their lips slowly.

"No", Kyung said as he did the final move and pressed their lips together to distract Jiho from asking more guestions. This was their first kiss, allthrough they had know each others feeling, but both just pushed the topic aside, because they didn't want it to ruin the good friendship they had.

Their lips moved slowly in sync, both melting into the kiss. Suddently in the whole universe, there were just the two of them, floating around like feathers in the wind.

"Do you love me?" Jiho whispered against the older boy's lips.

"Yeah", Kyung just said smiling to him.
