Moon🌙:
Joon, I have something to tell you.
Moon🌙:
You aren't going to like it.
Hwall🐱:
What?
Moon🌙:
It's Chang. He's going to out you to Chanhee.
Moon🌙:
He told me he had no choice or else what he did would be revealed.
Moon🌙:
He made me promise not to tell anyone, especially you.

But, I knew I had to break the promise.
Moon🌙:
You're more important.
Hwall🐱:
I thank you for that.
Hwall🐱:
What the hell did he do that he's desperate enough to do this?
Moon🌙:
I have no idea.
Moon🌙:
But, if you want to keep your friendship with Chanhee, I suggest you get a move on.

"And where do you think you're going?" Hyunjoon put his shirt on then turned to face Hani. "Chanhee's. Why do you care?" Hani walked over then flicked his forehead. "I care because your father wants me to spend time with you. All day. And if you want to keep your father happy, you'll go along with this." "I have somewhere more impo-" "Shut up. We're going out and that's final." She walked out of his room and closed the door behind her.

Hyunjoon walked next to Hani as they made their way downtown. "I honestly don't care what we do. As long as it's something we can't get arrested for." "I'd rather be in prison than with you." Hani rolled her eyes then walked on ahead of Hyunjoon. "I hope Changmin hasn't told Chanhee yet. Maybe I should text him." He took out his phone and noticed the screen was black. He pressed the power button but it wouldn't turn on. "Don't tell me I didn't charge it..." He was right.
Dusk settled upon the city as he and Hani exited a big arcade. "Well, we should head back. Do you want anything from the convenience store?" "Wow. Is that consideration I hear? It's going to snow!" "You know what, forget it. I should've lost your ass in this god damn place." Hyunjoon grunted at her statement as she walked in. He looked at the now darkening sky and hoped everything would be okay. Hani walked out then handed him a water bottle. "Don't say anything and just take it." He did as he was told as they walked back home.
"We're back!" Hyunjoon's dad poked his head out of the kitchen then greeted Hani with a kiss. "Did you two have fun?" Hani ushered his dad into the kitchen as she talked about their day. He quietly slipped out the front door and made his way to Chanhee's. He knocked on the door and was greeted by Mrs. Choi. "Hello, Hyunjoon. If you're looking for Chanhee, he went over to Sangyeon's. He'll be there the entire weekend. I'm sorry." "It's...it's fine. Thank you." She closed the door as he walked down the steps.
Hyunjoon didn't bother heading back inside but instead went into their backyard. He lied down on the grass and counted the stars in the sky. "My phone should be charged soon. I have to know." After a while, he git up and walked back inside. He turned on his phone then immediately went to his messages.

Sang🥭
Sang🥭:
Chanhee suddenly came over despite telling me he was going to spend time with you today.
Sang🥭:
I don't know if he was crying or laughing.
Sang🥭:
Did you two argue again?
Hwall🐱:
What? No.
Sang🥭:
He won't talk to me. He's been like this for hours.
Sang🥭:
Are you sure?
Hwall🐱:
I haven't seen him at all today.
Hwall🐱:
I want to see him.
Sang🥭:
I guess I can take a picture.
Sang🥭:

Hwall🐱:
Do you think he'd be up to talking to me?
Sang🥭:
I'll ask.
Sang🥭:
He said no then hid under the covers.
Sang🥭:
Try again tomorrow.
Sang🥭:
I'll let you know if he speaks about what happened.
Hwall🐱:
Okay...

Hyunjoon couldn't help but stare at the picture of Chanhee that Sangyeon had sent him. He hoped and even prayed that whatever happened wasn't what he's been fearing all this time. "I can't lose him now...Will he really cut me out of his life completely?" He bit down on his bottom lip hard and thought he'd draw blood at any moment. He heard a knock on his door and saw his dad come in. However, Hyunjoon had started becoming nervous.
___________
"Chanhee, how long are you going to remain silent? I'm your best friend and you know I'm here for you." Sangyeon noticed Chanhee sit up then look at him with slightly puffy eyes. "Joonie..." "What about him?" "He...I can't." Sangyeon held Chanhee by his shoulders then looked him straight in the eyes. "Who told you?" "Changmin..." "Can you show me the conversation?" Chanhee handed his phone over to Sangyeon who then went through the conversation. He put the phone down then let out a sigh, knowing that this would've happened some day. "Tell me one thing. Are you going to rationally think about your choice?" Chanhee quietly nodded then hugged Sangyeon.
"Why'd you give Hani a hard time, eh?!" Hyunjoon moved out of the way of his father's attack. "What? I never did such a thing!" His father clearly wasn't listening as he went in for another attack and landed a hit. Hyunjoon yelped in pain as he held his arm. "She got you drunk again..." "Stop moving and just take your beating." Hyunjoon ran for the door but his father was quick to tackle him to the ground. "Get off me!" His cries went unheard as his father landed blow after blow.
Sangyeon hung up after calling Hyunjoon for the nth time. "His phone is clearly on, but I guess he's busy." Chanhee pulled his knees closer to his chest as he repeated Changmin's words in his mind. "Get some rest, Chan. You've had a long day." Chanhee lied down on his side and tried to fall asleep. He couldn't help but think of Hyunjoon.
