Mingyu POV:

I look down and see dark red blood staining my white shirt.  I groan from the pain as I realize he hit me with the knife in my side. The adrenaline must have kept me from realizing how painfull it actually was. My eyes go back to Wonwoo as I fall in my knees.

He rushes towards me as he holds me up. The shirt getting redder and redder as by now I lost a lot of blood. I smile as I look at his face ''It will be okay''. The weakness of my voice surprises me is I start coughing and the red liquid that is leaving my body through the cut now also found its way up.

His gentle touch with his thumb to wipe away a bit of blood out of the corner of my mouth. I see his eyes tear up before he looks away. ''Look at me'' I say softly and wait till our eyes meet once more. ''Why did you protect me? You're hurt cause of me!'' he says his tears now streaming down his cheeks.

''It doesn't hurt that bad'' I say trying to calm him down, but it's no use as we both know how bad it is. ''Don't lie, don't you dare lie Kim Mingyu'' he says as he softly hits my upper chest with his clenched fists. ''You're dying because of me'' he ads looking at me with tears in both our eyes now.

''i'm not dying, but if i would At least I'm dying for the one I love..''

Wonwoo POV:

A small dark red circle shows on Mingyu his shirt. He gently pulls his shirt up, and this isn't the right time to comment but god dammit his abs look so freaking good! We both sigh from relief as it's just a cut at his side not even that deep. Though it would require some stitches.

''give me your phone'' he says, I don't really pay attention as I'm still in trance seeing his chest for the first time and of course everything else that happened. ''Give me your phone'' he repeats himself this time on a slightly more demanding tone. I shake away from me thoughts and hand him my phone. ''What will you do with it? shouldn't we go to the hospital... You're hurt Mingyu..''

He ignored my plead and typed something in my phone before handing it back. 'there is no need for a hospital, I have a needle and thread in the first aid kid. And enough stuff to patch the both of us up.'' He says as I look at my phone I see he entered his contact on it. ''I should have given you my number a long time ago, guess I never thought you really need my help with anything..'' he goes on ending his sentence on a bit of a sad tone.

''I- I'' I can't finish my sentence, the words are glued to my tongue and lips. ''come on'' he says and takes my hand with his as we go towards his house. The walk is long especially cause Mingyu needs to take a break every now and then but after 30 minutes of walking we reach his house and go inside.

He immediately goes upstairs to his room. ''Can you get the first aid kit again?'' he asks as he sits down on his bed groaning slightly from the pain. I nod and go to his connecting bathroom. After opening the cabinet under the sink I crouch down and get the first aid kit, I quickly make a cloth wet remembering Mingyu should clean his wounds.

I walk back into the bedroom and see him sitting on the bed shirtless. I swallow the lump in my throat as my body refuses to move, and only look at him. ''Are you going to stand there all day'' he says chuckling. His cute chuckle snaps me back from my daydreaming as I quickly sit next to him and open the kit for him.

After he stitched himself he cleaned my wounds. I mumbled a soft ''Thank you''. Still being rather shy, as I think I can finally place these new feelings. But how could I ever tell him? I mean he would hate me for sure! I bite my bottom lip as I look at the ground.

Mingyu POV:

I have always wanted to tell him my feelings. From the moment I fell for him up till this very moment. Gosh he looks so cute fiddling with his hands like that. I take a deep breath In and out  to calm myself. ''Wonwoo'' I say feeling my voice is deep and low as I wait for him to look at me.

He replies with a hum telling me he's listening. I slowly lean in closer and closer staring deeply into his eyes. Finally our lips touch, his sweet pink red lips are lashed on mine as we share a loving long kiss. I feel him being shocked first but soon kissing back as I hold his neck preventing him from pulling away.

As our lips finally part I look at him with a bright smile. ''I love you'' I softly say, but he clearly heard it as his cheeks turn all shades of red. ''Do you love me as well?'' I ask teasing him a bit, as I know you wouldn't kiss someone like that if you didn't love him or her. His cheeks light up even more as he hides his face in my neck, gosh he is adorable.

''Can't y-you tell, why must you still ask something like that'' he says, as this cute pout comes on his face once he looks at me. ''I know your answer but I still want to ask.. Will you be my boyfriend?'' he shyly nods his head as a oh so soft ''yes'' leaves his lips. I can't stop smiling as I pull him into another hug and kiss him softly once more.

After 3 years of protecting the one I love, silently watching him on the background I can call him mine...
