[M] New Kid || Yeonbin

chapter 29

"That's great! I think he missed it a lot here when he couldn't work."

"I missed him too. He's such a nice kid."

"Hey, hyung!..." Beomgyu said as he came from the garage with a back pack over his shoulder, "Just one sec, I need to clock out." Beomgyu said as he brushed his hair out of his eyes and fixed his glasses.

"No worries, I'm early..." Soobin furrowed his eyebrows, "Where's your sling?"

"Oh, I can't wear it while I'm working or I literally won't be able to do anything."

"Don't tell Taehyun-ah that."

"I already did... He didn't take it very well."

"Is this the secret boyfriend I've heard about?" Yoonsa asked with a smile.

Beomgyu froze, "W-What?"

"Soobin-ssi told me you have a boyfriend... How come you've never told me?"

Beomgyu stamped his time card and put it back into its holder, "I-I don't know."

"What's he like?" Yoonsa asked as Beomgyu walked over to them.

Beomgyu softly smiled, "He's cute."

"He should come and meet everyone sometime."

"O-Oh... I-I don't know."

Yoonsa sighed, "They're not gonna care, Beomgyu-ssi."

"I just started to finally fit in with them."

"Who?" Soobin asked.

"The guys I work with... They're more ummm... traditional."

"But they like you." Yoonsa said.

Beomgyu raised an eyebrow, "They still call me infant."

Yoonsa didn't have a comeback, "Ok... You have a point...But I'd love to meet him."

"One day, I promise."

Soobin hesitated for a moment before saying, "Put your sling on before we leave so you can rest your arm for the walk home."

"Trust me, I will... Tae already worries about me enough."

Beomgyu grabbed his jacket and walked over to Soobin, "Hyung?"

"Yeah?"

"Can you hold my jacket? My sling's in the side pocket."

"Yeah, here." Soobin said as he reached out to grab Beomgyu's jacket.

Beomgyu handed it over before reaching into the pocket to grab his sling and having it securely hold his arm. He took his back pack off before he grabbed his jacket and struggled to put it on until Soobin helped him. Beomgyu slid his left arm into the sleeve and Soobin zipped it up for him because he couldn't, letting the right sleeve dangle to the side, before slinging his back pack back over his shoulder.

Beomgyu and Soobin both turned to Yoonsa, "Merry Christmas." they said together and bowed.

Yoonsa smiled, "Have a nice night with your boyfriends."

The two boys smiled and brought their fuzzy hoods over their heads to keep them warm.

The walk home started off quiet, but Soobin broke it, "I'm sorry for telling her about Taehyun-ssi... I didn't know you didn't tell them."

"It's ok... Miss Yoonsa is really sweet."

"Why didn't you tell her?"

"The guys I work with are like my family... They're pretty homophobic... I can't even imagine Taehyunnie coming to see me at work. I want him to be safe."
