GARAM POV

Garam: Wh-What?

Doyoung: He got into a car accident as his men were taking him to the hospital since he passed out. What they didn't know was that their driver was sneakily intaking the drug too, causing the accident. The police blamed it on that and case closed. So that- Garam don't cry.

Garam: I am a murderer.

Doyoung: You are not.

Garam: Yes i am. I made that drug.

Doyoung: Garam-

Garam: I am a monster. I should be going to hell. God-

He pulled me into a hug. I couldn't help but hug him back and cry on his chest. 

Doyoung: Don't cry... 

As if that helped. But i couldn't help but feel worse.

Garam: First i cause someone's death and then I get to know I caused you pain too. For years i blamed you for the awkward breaking up of us as a trio but then obviously... it was me. 

Doyoung: Garam...

Garam: Why are you even comforting me, Doyoung? You should be hating me. 

He separated us a little but our arms stayed around each other.

Doyoung: I can't hate you Garam. I just... can't. I... can't stop loving you either. I couldn't even stay mad at you for longer than a few hours.

Garam: Then why didn't you talk to me?

Doyoung: Because someone was always with Ten when i looked for them. 

He grumbled a little making me chuckle and choke on my sobs right after. Lovely.

Garam: I probably look horrible right now. 

Doyoung: You look beautiful as ever.

I laughed trying to cover up the fact that i was flustered.

Garam: And you are sappy as ever. 

Doyoung: I think that makes us compatible enough for me to-

He stopped himself. I looked into his eyes and I swear I saw them soften. 

Doyoung: Kiss you...

He finished as he leaned in and connected our lips. 

My head went into a crazy mess as i wrapped my hand around his neck and kissed him back. It was as if i had entered heaven. His lips were perfect and the kiss, was soft and innocent. 

But it was passionate enough to convey both of our feelings.

When we broke apart i kept my eyes closed, digesting the fact that i had just kissed him. My heart raced like every time i was around him. And the butterflies in my stomach were having a blast. 

I finally opened my eyes and saw him smiling. 

Garam: I know it's stupid... but i am sorry. I shouldn't have-

Doyoung: Garam, it's fine, really.

Garam: No it's not. And-

Doyoung: B-

Garam: Ba-Bab. Listen to me. You can't stop me from speaking-

He chuckled deeply making my words falter.

Doyoung: Oh i think i can.

Garam: How-

He squeezed the side of my waist as he connected his lips on mine again.

The next few days were the best. Doyoung spent a lot of time with me in the lab. The younger boys had not yet come back after asking Taeyong. 

Doyoung: Oh they took Jisung and Chenle to their first drug deal, just to make sure they want to be with you. 

He said when i enquired about them since i had not seen them all day. I sighed and sat next to him. He immediately put a hand around me and turned me around. He started massaging my back, making me chuckle.

Doyoung: You must be exhausted. 

I just hummed, feeling satisfied. It was silent for a while.

Doyoung: You know... i had this dream... where i died. And i never got to tell you goodbye.

I turned around and saw him have a neutral look on his face.

Doyoung: I got scared. It made me fear that you will be gone soon. 

I cupped his face and forced a smile on my face.

Garam: Stop thinking negatively. I am here, right now.

I couldn't even tell him that i will stay. 

But he took what i said with a smile and leaned forward pecking me lovingly. He then took my hand and laced our fingers.

Doyoung: I know it's not been too long... but, Garam-

The door burst open and Mark walked in making the two of us flinch apart.

Mark: Garam-

He stopped and stared at the two of us before smirking.

Mark: Did i interrupt something?

Doyoung: Ahem... no. 

Mark: Sure.

He still had that sly smile which only made me feel more flustered.

Mark: Right... Garam, Taeyong said he will allow the boys to work with you. Just for a last conformation he asked me to get your approval.

I just gave a nod.

Doyoung: Why isn't he asking her himself?

Mark shrugged.

Mark: He said something about how she has been avoiding him. Anyway i gotta go, so see you.

Once he left Doyoung held my hand making me face him.

Doyoung: We should probably tell Taeyong.

We hadn't really told anyone about us yet. And having to tell Taeyong only would make it awkward... maybe. But it had to be done sooner or later.

Doyoung: Oh come on, him and Jia are together now. How bad can it be?

I nodded.

Garam: Alright.
