[✓] ❛ my darling ❜ || sungwon

015: my darling.

"jay! why would you do something like that to jake? you know that he has, like, asthma or something! you should be more considerate of the people around you before saying or doing things that could potentionally put them in danger. say sorry, even though I have no idea as to what you may have said!" sunghoon stepped up to jay, a cutely angered expression on his face. he scolded jay as if he were his parent, a finger pointed towards jake who was still struggling and squirming around on the floor.

"j-jake, do you need an inhaler? I could ask noona for one—" sunghoon quickly turned around to jake once he had stopped making noises and gasped when he saw the other practically lifeless on the floor. "uhm, j-jake? jake, are you okay?" he shook the other relentlessly, watching in confusion as jungwon walked up to his breathless body slowly.

"he's just playing." jungwon snorted, slapped jakes face playfully. jakes eyes shot open at the harsh touch and he sprung up from his place on the floor, his act having been exposed much quicker than he would have wanted it to.

"sorry, jake. I didn't think that me flirting with you as a joke would harm you this much. I promise I won't do it again. unless you want me to, that is." jay winked at jake, completely spoiling the purpose of his half-assed apology. sunghoon gasped once he headd the reason that jake had been choking, a smile overtaking his concerned expression.

"does jakey have a crush on mr. seattle?!" sunghoon squealed like a fanboy who had just met his idol, his hands squeezing jakes cheeks obnoxiously. jake shut his eyes, mentally cursing jay out for exposing him like that. he sighed before nodding, unintentionally revealing his crush not only to his friend and his friend's boyfriend, but jay — his crush — too! he had basically just confessed.

"oh—" jay's eyes sparkled momentarily before he gave sunghoon a look that suggested that he would be having a talk with jake. "let's go and talk about this somewhere more private. how about it, jake?" jay asked in english, whatever he had said remaining a mystery to the other two fully korean boys in the room.

"wonie, what did he just say?" sunghoon turned around to look at jungwon, curiosity written across his face. jungwon smiled at him whilst shaking his own head, showing that he knew little to nothing about what his words meant either.

when jay and jake left the room, sunghoon and jungwon stared at the door. they wished that they could hear some remnants of their dreaded conversation through the wooden entrance, but alas, they couldn't. tired of trying, they assumed that either jake or jay would tell them what had happened, and then slumped back into their own seats.

sunghoon was doing nothing, really, just sitting there, playing with his fingers to find something, anything to do. that's why he found it odd when jungwon suddenly pulled him in for a kiss, their lips meeting at the most random and unconventional time ever.

sunghoon let out a small, surprised squeak into the unexpected contact, not quite anticipating for a kiss from jungwon inside of an old, dusty, and, most importantly, empty classroom. he just hoped things didn't get too heated, beause he wasn't really one to endorse public endeavors of that rate — especially not in school.

their tongues entangled with one another, embracing their feelings through soft strokes on the skin and light bites on the lips instead of words. the engagement between their lips was purely innocent, just a kiss of love and gratitude.

when they pulled away from one another, smiles conquered their formerly dull and expressionless faces. jungwon's usually hidden dimples made a rare appearance, causing sunghoon to smile even brighter than before.

"your smile is so beautiful," jungwon began, ready to flirt with the younger boy, "just like you." he continued. sunghoon elicited a soft giggle at the unprompted compliment, shying away from jungwon's hold.

"it's been a whole week and you're still shy from the compliments I give." jungwon stated, grinning amusedly at the flustered look on sunghoon's face. "cute." he booped his nose.

"come, sit." he gestured towards his own lap, making the other male in the room even more red. he reluctantly stood up and sat down in the aforementioned spot on jungwon's body, hiding his face in the olders neck.

"you know how much I love you, right? and how I'm truly, so deeply sorry for every single thing I've ever said to you?" jungwon started apologizing out the blue, confusing sunghoon. sunghoon didn't raise his head, only for the sake of his comfort — and the fact that he would probably tear up if he looked at jungwon whilst talking about such a heavy topic.

"I know." he whispered, pressing a kiss to jungwon's neck lovingly. the action encouraged jungwon to keep going, even if it wasn't necessary.

"I can't believe I was such an asshole to you. I've always heard the saying; 'boys will be boys, and if they're rude to you, it just means that they like you', and shit like that, but embodying it really did not feel right. not at all." he continued, his voice lowering to a mere whisper. "don't even get me started on daeyoung. she's a bitch and we all know that now. it's almost cliché, really. really cliché."

"I guess so." sunghoon chuckled almost inaudibly, trying not to break through the seriousness of the much needed conversation.

"I'm trying to better my ways, and I hope you can see that. like I said before, if I ever do anything to you — to hurt you, physically, mentally, or verbally — please, don't even think twice about leaving me. I promise, I'm going to try my best to become the person that I was before I let this 'mean, bad boy' persona take over. I wasn't anything like this and I hope that in the future I won't be even similar to this anymore." jungwon started wrapping up his apology, showing that it was in his best interest to make sure sunghoon was okay.

"I'll never hurt you again. I'll never yell at you again. I'll never make you cry again. unless it's happy tears, of course." he broke through his emotional seriousness to laugh a little, ultimately making sunghoon hold onto him tighter as he laughed along as well. "I'll never make you feel like you have to be afraid of me, hide from me, or complain to anyone about me. if it ever comes to that, I'll do everything I can to make it up to you, if you allow me."

"I'll never make you feel lonely. I'll be there for you for every problem that comes your way, even if it takes a toll on my own mental or physical health, I will list you as my first priority. you are my lifeline, and nothing could bring the same amount of pain as you leaving me." jungwon pressed a long kiss to sunghoon's cheek, acting as a repayment for the kiss that he had received on his neck just moments ago.

"I'll do my best to make you happy. you're mine now, it's my duty to do so." jungwon completed his long speech, putting his hands on sunghoon's to make him look towards him.

"I'm yours?" sunghoon questioned, a happy grin etching itself on his face. jungwon stared into sunghoon's shining eyes for what felt like minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, even years.

"only mine, darling." he whispered before locking his and sunghoon's lips once more.
