today became yesterday,

tomorrow got changed to last week,

weeks passed and months came,

those months were turned to years,

and those years went by in just a blink of an eye.

❝in memory of jisung park,❞ having his hands clasped and eyes shut tight, donghyuck took a deep breath as he lowered his head down with the said pure blooded appearing inside his head. ❝he will be missed.❞

they fought.

they argued.

they quarreled.

they fixed it.

they didn't get to escape the awkward tension.

they had moved on from their past mistakes.

they are in love.

they made love.

and they grew up mature as they overcame those obstacles together.

carrying one of the twins, renjun had his fist clenched and didn't even hesitate to smack the back of the tanned male's head. ❝jisung is not dead!❞

their relationship isn't perfect, neither are they.

the two are just like other couples, they tend to fight a lot but one had to put his pride down and apologize and that certainly is jisung. he can't last a day having his omega sulking and not talking with him. not when they are living under the same roof. although, they have sweet memories together more than they argued. they quarrel on simple things anyways that can just be solved easily, like what flavor of ice cream tastes better? chenle would choose chocolate but jisung preferred strawberries with a reason of having the omega's scent being the same.

they did take things slow, they know their limits, and jisung certainly learned his lesson in always bringing a contamination of white liquid of his size every single time. if he forgets, jeno is always there for the rescue. if they'd get the chance to explain how their relationship is for the past years in just one word, chenle would definitely say sweet and jisung would say spicy. opposite answers but they go well with each other, sweet and spicy, a perfect combination. just like the both of them, they are completely different but they compliment each other, a match made in heaven.

though, not even love can stop them from making mistakes. misunderstandings were surely made but they know very well how to deal with it, maturing as days, weeks, months, and years passed by with them growing and staying strong for each other. did they fall out of love? with honest answers, the both would say no. did they regret a single decision they had made to get where they are right now? with the same answer, that would be no.

they fell even deeper for each other, being rest assured that committing themselves with one other for the rest of their lives would be a decision that they'd forever cherish and love. just like how they love each other.

❝uncle nana,❞ a little girl held the fairy lights and lifted it up to the man who's busy hanging up the balloons of letters that goes by the same spelling as the pure blooded alpha they are waiting to arrive. ❝why is it not glowing?❞

looking down and paying attention to the little girl that's pouting at the fairy light, jaemin jumped down from the chair and crouched down right in front of her. ❝you still have to plug it. you shouldn't actually be holding this, you'd get hurt.❞ he said, gently taking the light from her.

❝but papa told me to give this to you.❞

taking in a deep breath, jaemin held back the urge to scold the tanned male who's arguing with the other smaller omega right there. ❝dahyun, how about you go play with—❞ seeing that one of the twins is being carried, his eyes trailed along the living room and caught his little boy playing with action figures. ❝jun, hm?❞

with eyes squinted at the boy having fun on his own, the little girl had a frown on her face upon knowing how mean that boy can get. it made her shake her head, ❝but i wanna help uncle nana.❞

❝uncle nono is already helping uncle nana, see?❞ he was about to point to the man that's supposed to be standing right beside him he suddenly disappeared. he stood up with brows furrowed. ❝where's jeno?❞

while chenle and jisung were dealing with their own situations, the others also handled with their problems. let's say, donghyuck had it worse. the others were having their own lovers to attend to, getting too busy to even be with the tanned male. he didn't want to complain, he knew he had no rights to do so as he doesn't control their lives. donghyuck also didn't want to look like he's forcing his friends to be with them, he didn't have the heart to break them apart and let them worry about him just because he still couldn't move on at what happened to him.

if it wasn't just for this little girl he had took in then he would really have lost the will to live. she gave him a reason as to why he should stay, as to why he should stay strong. not only those, but she also gave him love, affection, and a family to turn to. donghyuck loved his daughter dearly and that she's already enough for him, he couldn't ask for more.

❝come here, dahyun.❞ after having a heated argument with renjun about his joke, the tanned omega walked over to jaemin and his little girl.

❝papa!❞ an adorable chuckle was heard from her as she was being carried up. she then cupped the his father's face and squished his chubby cheeks. ❝papa, can i not help?❞

❝we're almost done, baby flower.❞ donghyuck said, bopping her nose with his. ❝we just have to wait for your uncle ji to arrive.❞

❝speaking of jisung,❞ renjun spoke, hearing his friend's conversation with his daughter. he first then placed little boy he's carrying down the sofa, right next to his brother that's playing with action figures, before looking up and raising a brow at both donghyuck and jaemin who's standing right next to each other. ❝where is he?❞

the twins, whom jaemin, jeno, and renjun adopted. it didn't actually take them long to take another step with their relationship. jaemin loves children so much and the two couldn't resist him, making them agree with the alpha's idea to adopt adorable twins which one is friendly and addicted to actions figures and one having a bad eyesight and into books. that happened after finishing their education, having stable jobs the moment they got out of their institution. well, as for jaemin, he got sit in place as chairman of the alpha institution right next to his father. jeno's family already has a business of their own which the pure blooded had taken over with. renjun, he's living the kindergarten teacher dream he had always wanted. it's also an advantage for him as he could look after for the twins while at it.

they were having a comfortable life. having a house of their own, being supported by their family about their three-way relationship, and having a wonderful family of their own.

❝isn't that supposed to be jeno's job to call jisung?❞ jaemin stated as he clicked his tongue.

letting out a sound of realization, the tanned male just got to remember where the star of the night is. ❝right, he's going out with his friends to celebrate their last day together before entering the real world.❞

renjun was about to roast him about forgetting that but his eyes went over to the man that just came out of the kitchen with a glass of water in hand. he then crossed his arms and gave the pure blooded a look, making him freeze from his spot after seeing the little spoon looking angry. ❝where's jisung?❞

almost choking from the water he's drinking, jeno shrugged as he walked over to the sofa and placing the glass down the coffee table. he first placed kisses on the twins' forehead before standing properly back up and giving them an innocent smile. ❝he's coming.❞

❝wait, jisung isn't the type to hurry up if it's just us asking him out for a hangout—❞ curious, jaemin turned to the pure blooded. ❝what did you say?❞

❝i may have, may have not, told him that chenle is in trouble.❞ when in fact, that omega being mentioned is with them, safe and sound.

not moments after, the doorbell rang and it made jeno wiggle his brows at how his planned work. all their eyes followed the pure blooded that made his way to the front door.

he actually expected to see jisung, who they are waiting for, but he got to see three familiar faces instead, bringing gifts.

❝i hope we aren't late.❞ a beta said with his cheeky grin.

❝not really,❞ jeno hid the disappointment of not seeing another pure blooded alpha but nonetheless, at least part of their friends arrived after receiving the invitation. ❝what took you guys long though?❞

❝right, we were supposed to help in decorating for the celebration.❞ hendery heaved out a sigh as he tightened his hold on to the omega's hand that looked gloomy.

xiaojun stared to the side and frowned seeing how the omega wasn't in the mood to say a word. ❝we had a problem to deal with.❞

jeno could guess that it's probably about yangyang's parents being against their relationship and they had to talk it out. despite of wanting to know more about it, the pure blooded zipped his mouth and dared not to bring the topic up as he noticed how uncomfortable the omega is with it. he then opened the door wide as he invited the three, ❝come inside.❞

if jeno's relationship with his two boyfriends were accepted, yangyang's relationship isn't. the three are actually keeping it from the omega's parents from finding out and when they were caught being inside the younger's room making out, they were in it for the scolding. both xiaojun and hendery actually stood up for the omega but the male's parents still insisted that their relationship is wrong, is forbidden.

thou shall not have more than one lover, they said.

that didn't stop yangyang from being with them though. they still are finding ways to fix it, having their own jobs to also deal with. it surely is hard to handle but if there really is a way for them to be together then they can eventually get out of this mess and finally be in love with each other without having anything or anyone getting in the way.

they don't even plan to come to this celebration that jaemin had planned for the pure blooded, they wanted to first discuss and sort things out, but they didn't want to disappoint jisung, neither anyone in their circle of friends.

hopefully, this celebration can distract them.

❝hey, yang?❞ renjun approached them and got in front of the frowning omega, worried eyes gazing at him. ❝what happened?❞

the said omega felt bad for having them worried when it's supposed to be a happy moment. a hug, maybe that can help him get the problems out from his head for a while. he just need some comfort.

and so, renjun was then pulled to a tight hug. the smaller male didn't bother asking any more questions and embraced the younger tight, having his hand patting his back gently.

everyone stared at them without saying a word, knowing what yangyang has been going through. to change the gloomy subject, donghyuck spoke. ❝i thought yukhei is with you?❞

hendery turned to the tanned male and puckered his lips. ❝he'll catch up later with his husband and kids.❞

jungwoo and yukhei are also living the ideal married life like how everyone expected it to be. they are so in love and happy with each other that no one dared to mess with it. after their son, which yukhei failed to arrive in time when the omega gave birth to him, the two got a beautiful daughter the same year as the three (jeno, jaemin, renjun) and donghyuck had adopted their kids. they often visit each other, planning as to whose house, and let their kids play with each other. the children are quite great friends, just like how their parents are.

and right now, they were at jaemin's house where they'd be holding a celebration for the pure blooded's graduation.

they have attended the ceremony but had to leave first because a certain omega is not feeling well.

but first, they let jisung hang out with his family and friends before letting him come over. however, after what jeno had said about telling the pure blooded what chenle's state is, there might be a chance that the pure blooded might arrive earlier.

❝you didn't say anything too harsh about chenle, did you?❞ xiaojun questioned the shrugging pure blooded alpha after hearing the plan from jaemin who's now taking care of the twins as one of them are already sleepy.

scoffing, jeno tried to laugh it out but he just realize the mistake he made. ❝i probably had said that he's in trouble.❞

hendery nodded his head after placing the gifts for jisung down at a table filled with it. ❝that's fine at least—❞

❝that he's being kidnapped and his life is in grave danger.❞

ears perking up at the honest confession, jaemin held back the urge to shout as he had one of the twins being carried in his arms and cradling him to sleep. ❝you did not just say that.❞

putting the sleepy little girl down the sofa, the tanned male ran a hand through his hair stressfully. ❝we are dead meat, jeno!❞

❝i can now imagine him driving so fast to be here and—❞ renjun didn't get to finish his sentence when hendery cut him off.

❝i'm going back home.❞ being scared for his life, the alpha turned around and was about to make his way to the front door but his wrist was being held back by the beta.

and to think he'd go against that idea. ❝i'm coming with you.❞

already calming himself down, yangyang had his brows knitted at how they were acting like they were dying at this moment. ❝it's not like he'll believe it, right?❞

renjun let out a groan, burying his face down to his hands and rubbing it with his palms. ❝he'd believe about anything if you just put chenle's name on it.❞

❝last time i joked about chenle almost tripping without having anything in the way,❞ donghyuck mocked a laughed, not finding the situation funny. ❝he punched the air and scolded it for getting in people's way.❞

xiaojun pointed a finger at them as he also had done the same thing. ❝we went out once when chenle was bored, that guy bumped to a pole on our way to the mall. i told jisung about it since i found it funny but i ended up having to hold him back from fighting the pole!❞

❝ah, so that's why jisung almost wrestled the table when they came to visit our house!❞ their attention now went to yangyang who spoke upon having realizations after hearing all their experiences. ❝chenle stubbed his toe on it.❞

❝hey, i still can remember the vacuum cleaner.❞ jaemin spoke, now making them turn to him. ❝it stole a kiss from chenle.❞

both hendery and jeno gulped as they listened to their stories about jisung and his never ending urge to break things if it hurts chenle. turning to each other, they made a proud nod for themselves. that pure blooded had always been teasing them about how they couldn't control their sexual desires, always boasting about how great he is with his almighty self control. it's now their time to have something to roast about him.

❝we may have not self control in bed,❞ hendery spoke, reaching his hand out for a handshake.

jeno then took his hand and started shaking it. ❝but at least we don't have anger issues.❞

with all of them in their own worlds and continuing to talk about random things, one sound caused them to shut up and snap their heads at the front door where loud and aggressive knocks were heard, along with doorbell being pressed every second.

"open the fuck up!"

❝oh, look at the time.❞ jeno moved away, already knowing that he'd be the sacrifice to open the door since it was his fault to say that from the start. ❝i still have to flower the flowers.❞

about to make a great escape, two hands came to grab hold behind his collar and dragged him right by the front door. while everyone got to their places and took banners, party poppers, and any sorts to surprise the pure blooded that now arrived, both jaemin and renjun got jeno ready to open the door.

❝if i die, tell our sons that i love them.❞ jeno told the two as he took deep breaths. ❝and i love the both of you so much.❞

jaemin rolled his eyes, placing a soft peck on top of his forehead. ❝you're so dramatic.❞

after the alpha, the smaller omega then took this opportunity to also give jeno a kiss but it's on the lips. ❝you're just going to open the door.❞

but in doing so, watch a large wild chicken barge inside.

already in their places, jeno was made a sacrifice to open the door. he could hear loud bangs, already seeing the pure blooded punching it just to break it down. every knocks made him flinch and everyone's eyes were pressuring him to finally open it. he didn't even know when he locked the door, the younger pure blooded could just get inside and look for his beloved chenliet.

warming up with stretches from his arms and legs, jeno got to a perfect stance to escape quickly as he had his hand reaching out for the door knob. he felt his heart beating fast in touching it and as he twisted it open, it was what he had expected.

❝where the fuck is chenle!?❞

not having the chance to escape, the sacrifice was being held harshly by his collar. the younger pure blooded that had entered the house after being told about his lover's situation then had his grip tightened on jeno's collar as he growled deeply, nearing his face to the unamused pure blooded.

❝i thought he was with you! i fucking trusted you guys to watch over him and—❞

❝congratulations for graduating, park jisung!❞

the said pure blooded flinched when popping sounds were blown up and also confetti falling on top of his head. he didn't get to notice the people around and just went to lash out on the first person he saw the moment the door went open. jisung now then had his eyes scanning the living room and saw his friends having big smiles on their faces as they held party poppers and some were banners having congratulatory messages written on it. there were also his friends' children on the sofa clapping their hands and almost shouting for his name with adorable smiles curved on their lips.

the kids were the reason why he got to remove his tight grip on the older's collar, embarrassed that they had to see that side of him.

❝i..❞ bringing his hand up, rubbing his nap, he looked away and started feeling his cheeks heating up. ❝what is this?❞

❝a celebration, you idiot!❞ clicking his tongue, renjun walked over to the youngest of them and smacked his head.

a chuckle came out of jaemin's mouth as he also approached then, rubbing the sore spot where the small omega had hit. ❝i hope we didn't disturb you in your time with your family and friends.❞

❝yeah,❞ even though he had fun watching how the youngest was ready to have a fight with jeno, xiaojun found it too dramatic. though, he couldn't blame jisung, he's just too worried for his omega. ❝we're also sorry for jeno scaring you about what happened to chenle.❞

with the omega's name that's being said, jisung widened his eyes upon remembering his purpose being there. ❝where is he? is he fine? he isn't hurt, is he? did someone hurt him or anything? i was looking for him a while ago back at the auditorium but—❞

❝he's alright, ji.❞ donghyuck rolled his eyes at how dramatic the pure blooded can be sometimes. or actually, all the time when it comes to chenle. ❝just resting.❞

❝why?❞ it now started to worry him. ❝what happened to him?❞

❝he's just tired.❞ jeno said, fixing his collar and got back at the youngest by lightly punching his stomach, earning a groan from him. not minding his glare, he started to move away before the fight between them becomes real. ❝sorry we had to leave first after the ceremony.❞

donghyuck nodded his head, also mumbling an apology. the youngest might think they didn't care for him at all just because they left early. ❝aside from knowing that chenle is tired, we also have to come here and prepare for the surprise.❞

jisung followed them to the kitchen as they explained as to what happened on their way here to jaemin's house that he got permission from his dad to borrow and how they prepared for the surprise. he listened to them while having his eyes wandering around at how they put so much effort in making everything, the banners, the fairy lights which he found no use since the lights were switched on, and the food being placed down on the table. he felt himself drooling even though he had eaten already together with his family and also with his friends from the university.

but everything is not perfect without a specific someone.

❝is chenle just upstairs?❞ he asked a question about his omega again.

earning a nod from jaemin, the male raised a brow. ❝would you want to go see him?❞

❝can i?❞ looking away, jisung didn't want them to misunderstand that he didn't appreciate their preparation and surprise for him.

they all looked at him and instead of forcing him to celebrate with them, which of course they couldn't do because they know how glued he is with his omega, smiles were shown on their faces as they nodded their heads. all of them knows how much jisung badly wanted to see chenle, especially when he didn't get to be with him that long during the ceremony because they had to leave early.

❝of course, you can.❞ donghyuck reassured him.

with a bright smile, the pure blooded took a polite bow, which was rare for him to do, and shouted his thanks as he immediately rushed outside the kitchen and started making his way upstairs where he could catch the faint scent of strawberries.

meanwhile, they were all left in the kitchen. eyeing the food being prepared on the dining table, all of them were giving confused glances.

fortunately, xiaojun was shameless enough to break the awkward silence between them. ❝i don't know about you guys but i'm eating.❞

agreeing with what he said, donghyuck also went to find his seat. ❝i also think he's going to take more time upstairs with chenle.❞ and he didn't even want to go into details with that. ❝dahyun, baby flower, come over here!❞

❝we should have told him what's happening to chenle.❞ renjun sighed. he then went to place soft peck on both the alpha's and the pure blooded's cheeks before telling them, ❝i'll go get jin and jun.❞

with the small omega saying that, it caused for jaemin to snap his head to the pure blooded present there beside him. ❝jeno, did you—❞

❝way ahead of you guys.❞ he chuckled, already aware of what his job is. however, it made him wonder why jisung hasn't felt it yet when they have their cycles aligned. ❝made sure to place it on top of the nightstand.❞

also finding their seats, hendery turned to his side and took the omega's hand. ❝yang, are you okay?❞

his problem is still in his thoughts but he knew he should put it aside as he's here to enjoy. ❝i'm fine.❞

❝yang, ahh!❞ turning his head to the beta's direction, yangyang was taken by surprise as he saw xiaojun feeding him a spoonful of cake. with a bright smile, the omega gladly bit a part of it.

right, he'll be fine as long as he got these two with him.

knocking the door, jisung waited patiently for a good minute before opening the next room he had to guess where his omega is. he forgot to ask them where chenle is resting and he's too tired to go back down, that left him to opening each door he could see. he had already failed to see his omega in three of the guest rooms, having this door being the last one.

and as what he had finally saw, his lover is curled on the bed, sleeping soundly. he quietly closed the door and took careful steps towards the bed. the room was dark but the moonlight outside shown enough light to see how adorable but at the same time beautiful his omega is by just sleeping there. jisung was honestly sad and slightly irritated that he couldn't get to bring his lover with him during the after party with his friends and family but he received a message from one of them, probably donghyuck, that chenle is with them and just resting. not until jeno decided to mess with him and lie about him being kidnapped.

❝jisung?❞ a soft voice then snapped the taller male out from his thoughts.

the pure blooded was about to say a word but having the omega's scent lingering in his nose then made him understand why he had to leave early and why he isn't joining the others downstairs. it also made the alpha inside him react in some kind of way but he already got used to it after years of being with him. ❝would you want me to bring you home? i'll pile up my clothes for you if you're too tired to build your nest.❞ he then told him while running a hand through the older's hair. ❝what are you craving right now? i'll buy it for you quickly.❞

being bombarded with questions filled with concerns made chenle whine. he squirmed from the bed and leaned to the pure blooded's hand that's settled on his cheek. the younger kept on asking him what he liked to do during this time of the year, it's always like this, not knowing that there's only one thing, one person, that chenle is wanting, craving for.

that is no other than jisung.

holding back his desires, the smaller figure just brought his legs up and hugged it. ❝i-i'm sorry i had to leave early.❞ he mumbled, his voice as soft as ever. it's even volumed down but luckily for him, the room is silent. ❝but congratulations.❞

❝it could have been us celebrating together.❞ jisung chuckled, caressing the older's face as he reminded him about his education that he dropped because of how sulky he got with his parents.

huffing, chenle avoided the younger's gaze. ❝what's the use? i can't take over my dad's company because he prefers you more.❞

❝we talked about it already,❞ the pure blooded cooed at how the smaller male puffed his cheeks, having the urge to pinch it. ❝i told your dad to give the position to you while i go and handle my family's business.❞

❝what did he say?❞

leaning down, the younger placed a kiss on top of his head before whispering. ❝finish your college first.❞

chenle groaned in annoyance. they could have told him that way back so he could have started already. jisung chuckled at how he went back to sulking again, stroking his hair gently while just staring down at the omega's beauty. soon then, the scent started to trigger a part of the pure blooded that made him growl. it caught the older's attention, making him look at jisung who's moving away and staying at the edge of the bed. chenle knew very well that it was his way to calm himself down, removing any hidden desires he'd want to happen.

and it gave chenle a plan.

feeling his breathing hitch, jisung widened his eyes and a certain omega that's supposed to be laying on the bed is now settling himself down on his lap. the pure blooded wanted to ignore him and just focus on how he'd compose his alpha down but feeling chenle give him kitten licks on his neck wasn't helping him at all.

❝f-fuck,❞ he held on to the smaller's hips and halted him from slowly grinding on a specific spot that's now easily aroused because of how their cycles were nearing. ❝chenle, we should go home.❞

but it seems like the omega didn't hear that. he pulled away only to smash his lips on the pure blooded's.

chenle bit harshly on his lover's lip and caused the younger to parted them, making him slide in his tongue. jisung then let out a deep moan at how the omega was showing how impatient he is, how needy he is, and how he's just giving his body to him.

pulling away once more, chenle panted for air while sticking their foreheads to one another. ❝c-can i j-just give you y-your graduation gift now?❞

loving the thought of it, the pure blooded let out a growl as an answer. he then carried the smaller male up and threw him down the bed, making him bounce, but he didn't waste time to have their lips connected again as he was still making his way on top to hover over the omega.

❝hm.. ji— hmph..❞ chenle can't even say a word as the younger kept on abusing his lips. throwing his arms over the taller's shoulder, he pulled their bodies closer and arched his back so he could be able to create friction at their arousal.

jisung mumbled a curse word before he separated from the kiss, making the older male to drop his arms down the bed as the pure blooded kneeled down. with hooded eyes, lips glossy, and face all flushed, chenle eyed the younger that's taking off his jacket and shirt. he brought his finger up and started sucking at it, already feeling himself twitching at the sight of the pure blooded slowly stripping his clothes off.

catching a familiar pack on top of the night stand, the pure blooded reach his hand for one and bit the tip of the wrapper. he was about to rip it open but was stopped by a much more smaller hand that held his wrist.

❝our friends already have their own family,❞ chenle said, preventing the pure blooded from using that could stop them from producing anything. ❝don't you think it's time for us too?❞

that. that was the consent that jisung is waiting for. with a smirk on his face, he gladly threw the packet away anywhere inside the room and neared down just to capture the older's lips again. they were already swollen but that didn't stop him from abusing his lips more.

trailing his kisses down to his neck and up behind his ear, jisung nibbled on his earlobe before whispering with his voice going octaves deep. ❝can i add something from this graduation present?❞

chenle mewled at how his voice could send him shivers down to his spine, making him crave for the pure blooded even more. ❝w-what is i-it?❞

❝i want you to sing so loud that they would be able to hear from downstairs.❞

eating peacefully, donghyuck had his face scrunched upon catching a familiar scent that's mixed. it didn't take him a minute to immediately know who owned it. and the alphas' reaction was so obvious that they went to get their own omega, or beta, so they'd be able to calm down.

❝i thought all your rooms here cover up scents?❞ he commented, looking at jaemin who's holding renjun's hand real tight.

the alpha then shrugged. ❝probably took the soundproof one.❞

the only beta that's present there then scoffed. he was also being brought close to his own alpha. ❝why are they even separated?❞

❝why ask me?❞ it's not even his house to begin with. it's his family's, he just got permission from his father to use it as he's out there traveling. after giving the chairman position to his son, that man never stopped traveling around the world. as much as he missed him, jaemin is glad that his father is enjoy the time of his life.

they were about to continue eating peacefully but a knock from the door caught their attention. renjun was about to stand up but donghyuck had already beat him to it.

❝i'll go get it, it's probably yukhei.❞ he then took a table napkin and wiped his lips, bending down just to kiss on his daughter's forehead. ❝stay here, alright baby flower?❞

he earned a reassuring nod from his daughter and that was enough for him to go out of the kitchen. seeing the decorations at the living room, it had him scrunched his face at how long they'd have to clean up this beautiful mess. anyways, he'd think about that later.

walking down the living room, he rushed to the door as the knocks were getting louder. he uttered a cuss at the person who's knocking before taking hold of the door knob, slowly twisting it to the side. he had a bright smile on his face, already ready to greet yukhei and his family, but that smile soon faded away when he saw who it really was.

a man slightly taller than him. he never changed, he only grew to look more mature than before. although, he looked like he didn't know what sleep is. with those puffed and red eyes, the man looked like he has been crying for god knows how long or how many times. in short, the man looked miserable, but still so gorgeous as ever in donghyuck's eyes. questions were running inside his head, how did he get here? how did he know that he was here? why did he even bother visiting? isn't he living the life he wanted? why does he look so broken?

❝m-mark—❞

not even asking even one of those questions he had in mind, the tanned male almost stumbled back when the alpha came to engulf him in a tight hug. the most tightest embrace he could give, not letting go any second from now, nor any minute. he wanted this to last long, he wanted to have him in his arms forever.

he didn't want to let go of him, never again.

❝love, i missed you.❞
