Trouble in Paradise | Yeongyu

•9•

Yeonjun's heart was pounding against his chest. He saw that Beomgyu already signed.

"I've already come to terms with this. I've cried every night for weeks, I've cried on so many shoulders trying to figure out what to do about us. I've tried with you, I've tried to get you to open up...and all of this." He said gesturing to the candles and flowers. "Why did you do this now?"

Yeonjun looked at him, worry filling his eyes. "I was...I was confused and I don't know what I was thinking but I'm doing it now! I'm here now Beomgyu!"

"It's too late." Beomgyu said as he shook his head. "I can't do this anymore with you Yeonjun."

"I won't sign them." He threw it down on the table and walked closer to him. "I can fix this I'm trying to be better! Just give me a chance!"

"I've given you so many chances! I thought you'd change but you never did, you never tried to talk to me until now!"

Yeonjun shook his head. "I won't sign them."

"Why?" He yelled. "You don't love me anymore!" The tears finally fell and Yeonjun hugged him.

"It's not true, I do Beomgyu. I do I love you so much."

Beomgyu shook his head. "You don't!" He cried loudly, his legs felt like they would give out, his heart ached.

It's been almost a month and a half since he forgot their anniversary and he dealt with the pain of slowly losing him all alone.

"Beomgyu please I'm so sorry don't do this."

"Let go of me." Beomgyu tried to get out of his arms. "Let go Yeonjun!" He shoved him away and Yeonjun stumbled back.

"Beomgyu." His voice breaking.

Beomgyu looked at his left hand and took his ring off.

"Don't." Yeonjun begged, his own tears leaving his eyes. "Give me another chance."

Beomgyu sat the ring down on the table and tried to leave but Yeonjun stopped him.

"Don't do this. Don't leave me, I need you." He grabbed his hand and kissed his palm placing it on his cheek. "It's me Beomgyu." He touched Beomgyu's face staring down at him. "It's me, I'm right here and I'm begging you not to do this."

Beomgyu felt like throwing up. "Let me leave."

"No." He shook his head and got down on his knees looking up at him. "Beomgyu please don't leave me. I swear to you, I will fix this. We can go back to the way things were, I will never make this mistake again I promise you."

Beomgyu shook his head. "I'm done Yeonjun." He stepped away from him and went back to their room closing and locking the door.

Yeonjun didn't know what to do. He went to the door and knocked on it.

"Beomgyu," he kept knocking. "Please open the door. I'm so sorry! Beomgyu!"

After awhile he stopped knocking but he waited outside on the floor for him all night. Beomgyu opened the door and Yeonjun quickly stood up looking at him, clearly exhausted.

"Beomgyu. Can we talk?"

"...I can't trust you Yeonjun."

"No y-you can, I swear I'll...I'll prove it to you. Give me two months, no, one month. Give me one month to win you back and if you still want a divorce after a month I'll sign it."

Beomgyu stared at him and sighed. "I need to think about this."

Yeonjun nodded and swallowed. "Okay." Beomgyu walked past him.
