They say silence is Golden,
I believe it is true,
Because in that Golden silence,
my thoughts occur of you.
Seonghwa could see the pain in Hongjoong's eyes as he tried to hide the burns on his hand from the coffee accident earlier that day. Without a second thought, Seonghwa took Hongjoong by the hand and led him to his home.
As they walked through the streets, Seonghwa couldn't help but notice how Hongjoong's eyes lit up at the sight of the bustling city around them. It was as if he had never truly seen the world before, and Seonghwa couldn't help but feel a rush of protectiveness wash over him.
He let Hongjoong guide the way , holding his hand protectively as if someone was gonna take him away. They waled through a few alleyways and reached his home.
Seonghwa was a bit surprised at the condition of house, which was bad to say the least- it had 2 shattered window, the walls seemed frail and the door didnt seem much secure either. Oh how, he wished to help Hongjoong and hug him tightly in his arms!
They both entered the house with hongjoong being unusually quiet, he did not want Seonghwa to see his rattled home, but had no other option as the latter wouldnt agree to let him go alone.
They made their way into the living room and Hongjoong went towards the kitchen to bring something for Seonghwa, who lightly stopped him.
"Hongjoong, listen bubs, we're friends and friends dont let their friends get hurt in any way possible, ok. So laty down, I'll bring some water and a wet towel."
Hongjoong nodded and said,
"The wet towel is in the right cabinet in the kitchen"
Seonghwa was glad that the boy was finally accepting the help he needed and brought a glass of water, a wet towel and some ointments which he found there.
Hongjoong tried to take the ointments to apply them himself, but Seonghwa said,
"Let me take care of you, Hongjoong," Seonghwa said softly, his eyes filled with concern.
Hongjoong nodded, grateful for the kind gesture. Seonghwa carefully applied the ointment to the burns, his touch gentle and soothing. Hongjoong winced in pain, but Seonghwa's calming presence helped ease his discomfort.
They fell into a comfortable silence. The only sound in the room was the soft cawing of the crow. Seonghwa glanced up at Hongjoong and their eyes met. In that moment, a spark ignited between them.
"Thank you, Seonghwa," Hongjoong whispered, breaking the silence.
"I've never felt more cared for than I do with you, Seonghwa," Hongjoong said quietly, his voice filled with emotion.
Seonghwa's heart skipped a beat as he gazed into Hongjoong's eyes, seeing a depth of feeling that mirrored his own.

SEONGHWA POV
No longer controlling my rampaging heart, I grabbed Hongjoong by his waist.
I lunged forward, with our tongues battling for dominance , only for his tongue to be held down. He grabbed on to my shirt, which was a little lose, coming in contact with my bare skin. We both kept our mouth fixed to each other and looked to each other in the eye. He ruffled my hair while keeping his head on my shoulder.
"I love you Seonghwa, let's stay together"
"Me too Hon-"
"SEONGHWA!"
I jerked awake to see Hongjoong in front of me.
Wait. A dream. A dream about Hongjoong. A dream about Hongjoong kissing me. AHHHHHH WTF.
CALM DOWN CALM DOWN. I felt my entire face burning up.
"Ah, Seonghwa, you seem red, do you perhaps have a fever?"
Hongjoong came forward to kiss m- no. to check my temperature. That's right, stop yourself Hwa, get a hold.
"No, It's alright Hongjoong, I didnt realize I fell asleep and how are your burns?"
"The're much better thank you, and you were sleeping by the time I went to get water for myself, so I didnt want to wake you up."
"Whats the time right now?"
He pointed to a watch on the wall which said 9:00 AM.
I'm so glad I missed my college for this. Wooyoung is such a great adviser.
🫧𓇼𓏲*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
After bidding goodbye to Hongjoong, I went towards home and opened the door with the spare key I had.
As I approached San's room, I noticed that it was slightly ajar., Feeling weird, pushed it open and stepped inside, only to freeze in shock at the sight before me.
Wooyoung was coming out of San's room, half naked. My heart pounded in his chest as I took in the scene before me. Wooyoung's tousled hair and flushed cheeks, the way his eyes widened in surprise as he saw me there, frozen in the doorway.
God my little brother got laid before me.
"What.what's going on?" I managed to say , out of the million curious question that were lingering in me.
Wooyoung ran a hand through his hair, looking sheepish. "I-I'm sorry, Seonghwa. It's not what it looks like-"
"Shut up Wooyoung, I wouldnt care less if you slept with San... just keep his heart safe Ok? He's a sensitive kid."
Wooyoung smiled and said,
"Thank you. I will Seonghwa. I'll protect him like my life depends on it."
I smiled and patted my best friend's back,
"So where's San right now?"
Wooyoung put his hand on his forehead,
"Aisshhhh, I almost forgot that I had woken up to make him some coffee to wake him up."
"Alright then, make me one too, I'll wake him up"
"Anyways, is Hongjoong better now?"
"Yeah , deff better than yesterday."
"That's great to hear, will hear the rest of the story later"
"Alright"
I walked into San's room, the soft morning light filtering in through the curtains. And I couldn't help but smile at the sight in front of me. San was curled up in bed, his Shiber clutched in his arms, a small smile playing on his lips as he slept peacefully. He's grown up so much, he's such a strong person. Dad would be so proud and Mom would be so happy
Gently, I approached the bed and shook his younger brother's shoulder. "San, it's time to wake up," he whispered softly.
San stirred, his eyes fluttering open as he looked up at me with sleepy confusion. "Hyung?"
He came in terms with reality and his eyes wide opened,
"HYUNG! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE! I SWEAR WE DI-"
I ruffled his hair and said,
"Don't lie Sannie, I can tell when you are. And Dont worry, I'm not gonna stop you both from dating."
San quickly returned to a calm state and hugged me,
"Hyung, you're the best!"
"Alright, I know I'm the best but when did you start dating? I didnt know you two had met already"
"Well, we hadn't, it was love at first sight kinda thing, he proposed to me last night. And dont pout about not thinking and all, I know all about Wooyoung from what you told me"
I smiled at my Younger while Wooyoung brought coffee,
"Seonghwa now your turn"
