Here I go again, this chapter was supposed to be Thursday's update but the story is getting such a good response, especially in Ao3, so I just had to give you guys something before Thursday, I really enjoy writing this fic and I love your comments.

Also, if you love Angst, and like Exo.. tomorrow (Monday 8) I'll be updating my other story, so, feel free to read that one as well  ♥

"What are we going to do, hyung? I shouldn't have keep it a secret, even when he asked me to."

Wonho hushed Hyungwon and held him tighter. "I'll go find him, we can talk once I'm back."

"Don't. He needs to be alone-"

"No, he doesn't, Kihyun-ah. What if something happens to him? He doesn't have a phone on him, I should've let him call his hyung first," Hyunwoo was pacing around the room while the rest sat on the couches.

"There's a lot of things we should have done, and more we shouldn't have. But he's right, hyung. We better wait for him to calm down and come back, and then we can talk with him."

Everyone agreed with Minhyuk and decided to give Changkyun some time and space, no one felt like sleeping so Kihyun prepared some ramyeon and they ate while waiting.

About an hour later Hyunwoo received a call from an unknown number, the guy, whom introduced himself as Byunghwa, informed the Changkyun was safe and sound at his house, and not to worry about him. Hyunwoo was a bit hesitant but allowed the maknae to stay with his friend as long as he was on time at the company the next morning, since both Changkyun and Jooheon had a rap class scheduled.

After the call the eldest sent everyone to bed, only Kihyun stayed back. "What is it, Kihyun-ah?"

"I just- I can't believe I allowed this to happen."

"I'm the one who should've done something about it, I'm the leader."

"Yes, but I was getting close to him, and I can't help but feeling responsible for it as well. I-"

"Come here," he held the smallest in a hug. "Let's not worry about that, we have to talk to him, and gain his trust. And then help him, and also change the way things work around here. There's no good in blaming anyone, okay?"

"You're not a bad leader.."

"And you're not a bad mom either."

Kihyun laughed and hugged Hyunwoo back.

"Are you-are you going back today?" Jooheon asked carefully once their coach left the room.

"I'll stay back and work a bit on this part, but yeah, I guess I'll be there for dinner." Jooheon seemed so relieved, Changkyun winced. "Byunghwa threatened to go with me if I didn't do it myself, and I know he would only cause problems."

"Do you think we'd meet them one day?"

Changkyun was confused.

"I mean.. Your, your friends.. If you still spend time with them maybe we could meet them?"

"I don't know, hyung."

It was impossible to stay mad at Jooheon. His face and voice made him look so vulnerable, Changkyun sighed and gave him a little smile.

"I'll see you at home?"

The older nodded and got out of the room as if to give Changkyun space or to not be too obvious on his intentions to apologize.
