Donghun keeps typing on his computer. Is a bit late at the cafe and only a few customers remain.

Junhee left a few minutes ago, to go to a party organized by his classmates. Donghun saw that his boyfriend left with a happy look on his face.

"Don't drink too much and if you do call me sweetie, I'll go get you", Donghun offered

"Thank you hyung! I'll see you later", Junhee leaned in and kissed him, "Love you", he said in such a cute way that Donghun felt lost looking at his adorable man in front of him

"Love you too....have fun sweetie!" he replied and gave him another peck on his lips before the younger left to go to the college party

Now Donghun is seating finishing up just some late night work

He could call a few friends and go drinking also. But those days are behind for him. He did had it share of fun partying and heavy drinking....but now all he wants is to get home, maybe do some pancakes and watch that Japanese reality TV show he was hooked on

"Oh, Hi!" he hears a voice and looks up, to find a familiar face walking in

"hello Sehyoon, came looking for Junhee?", Donghun asks and receives a nod as he holds up a plastic bag

"Yeah, wanted to bring him some dinner..." His eyes scan the cafe but doesn't find his best friend

"He left to go to a party just a few minutes ago actually", Donghun says and Sehyoon nods

"I see..wait how come you didn't go with him?", Sehyoon asks now seating down in front of him

"I had to finish some work", Donghun exclaims a bit sad as he raises a little his laptop to show him, "And you...is Byeongkwan with you?" he asks also

"Yeah, he's in the car actually....he wants us to go see this horror movie this late....he says like Halloween on summer...", Sehyoon leaves the food on the counter, "That's actually for both of you so I'll just leave it here..." Sehyoon says as he gets up and starts to make his way out to reach his boyfriend

"You're so kind...thank you! say Hi to Byeongkwan for me...", Donghun says and the other nods as he leaves the store

Donghun is a bit hungry and tired already so he decides is time to close the shop. And replace those pancakes he wanted with the burgers that Sehyoon brought for them

>>>≥>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Once he's back home, he goes to take a quick shower. Throwing his phone and stuff on his bed

Donghun has being getting a bit more pressure from his father that he needs to make more money from cafe. But also the support from his brothers that never hesitate to provide financial advice and cheer him up. In a way because if Donghun quits that means one of them will have to move back to Seoul and take over the business. Which neither of them wanted to do.

His mother always tried to stay neutral. Being just a mom and not wanting to get involved on the family business.

One thing she did would be to constantly ask how were things between Junhee and him. Donghun's mother knew that his son was born different. No sign of soul mate tattoo on his body.

But that never stopped her from saying this to him

One day you'll find him or her...and all these heart breaks will paid off....just be patient my baby

His mother, will say when one day teenage Donghun came crying after a girl rejected him because they didn't have the same tattoo

This will only be the first of many more similar stories coming to his romance life

But those words gave him hope

The same that Junhee gives him.

He had found his special person

Donghun steps out of the shower and has that bear pajama that makes a match with his boyfriend's

"All right now time to eat...but first...", he smiles as he sends a sweet short text message

Have lots of fun!
Be safe.
Love you!

After sending that he grabs one of the burgers from the bag and goes to the kitchen to warm it up

He then seats on the sofa and turns on Netflix to continue watching the drama unfold of this Japanese tv show

Donghun places the phone on the sofa besides him...after a few episodes he feels sleepy. He takes a look at his phone but still no reply from Junhee

So he decides to just go to bed since his eyes are now hurting from trying to stay awake

He goes back to his room and falls asleep.

Is almost 4 a.m when he feels his bed move, he opens his eyes a little bit and focuses on the silhouette seating down staring at his shoes

"....Junhee?" Donghun asks as he rubs his eyes, his voice sounding a bit husky

The other doesn't move and just replies, "Hey, my friend dropped me off here... sorry I didn't want to wake you up....", his reply sounds lost and he's still looking at the floor

"Is fine...come to bed", Donghun pulls up the covers and Junhee slowly crawls under them. His cold body soon warms up by the sheets and his boyfriend that has move closer to him

"I don't deserve your trust and love hyung....", Junhee whispers. The sound of his voice sounding a bit melancholic

The other is a bit confuse of this so he just replies with an obvious question, "Are you drunk?"

To which Junhee giggles under his breath and his smile is perceive by his sleepy boyfriend, "I am....but.... I'm sorry" he says and gets up from under the sheets, and Donghun  now opens his eyes a bit more

"Is everything alright?" He asks as he seats up on his bed

"Yes hyung....just need a quick shower, please go to sleep", he moves to Donghun's side and kisses his lips, the other can perceive a light scent of soju but not too strong, "I Love you Donghun", his expression is so serious and deep when he says this that. Donghun only replies with a nod

"Love you too Junhee"

Then Jun,  rushes to the bathroom carrying his pajamas that he now leaves on Donghun's house

The other just wants to believe his boyfriend must be a bit drunk for him to be acting this weird, and goes back to bed.

He falls back asleep, and doesn't notice ... that Junhee is softly crying in the shower.
