Tw: Mention of Self harm

Seonghwa was pacing in his room. Waiting for a text from Mingi. He hadn't texted back to him since two days ago and it was starting to worry Seonghwa. Finally his phone tinged.

Mingi
Sorry hyung I didn't see
I was outside

Seonghwa
What are you doing out at this hour

Mingi
Don't worry I'm ok

Seonghwa
Where are you

Mingi
Hyung I'm really ok don't worry

Seonghwa
Mingi. Where are you.

Mingi
At the Han river

Seonghwa
Stay there

Seonghwa got his keys and jacket and hurried to his car. Going as fast as he can without getting into a car accident. As he neared the bridge he saw a tall figure standing close to the railing, staring at the dark night sky. Seonghwa parked and quickly made his way to where Mingi stood.

"Mingi" he said. Making the taller turn to him. Mingis eyes looked hollow and empty, rid of any sings of joy.

"What are you doing, come here" Seonghwa said softly. Walking closer and taking the youngers hand, pulling him away from the railing. Mingi stayed silent. Looking down, not saying anything.

"Did you do anything" Seonghwa asked. Looking for any possible injury. The other just shook his head. Still not looking up. Seonghwa sighed. Knowing he is not going to get a answer. He pulled the taller into a tight hug. Mingi hugged Seonghwa tightly. They stayed like that for a while. Seonghwa rocking slightly to calm the younger.

"Hyung, I...I hurt myself" Mingi whispered. Breaking the silence.

"It's ok. Where are you hurt" Seonghwa asked softly. Pulling away.

Mingi rolled up his sleeve to show a long red line up his arm. Still fresh.

"Let's get that looked at hm" Seonghwa said. "Don't worry, you didn't do anything wrong" he continued.

Mingi nodded and the two went to the Seonghwas house.

"Come here" Seonghwa said. Gesturing to his bathroom. Mingi sat on the toilet seat as Seonghwa cleaned and bandaged the scar. Patting his arm.

"Now, do you want to talk about it or want to do some fun stuff" Seonghwa asked. Walking back to the living room Mingi.

"Can I just...hug you" the younger asked. Looking at his feet, nervous.

"Ofcourse, we can hug as long as you want" Seonghwa replied. Smiling reassuringly at Mingi. They sat on the couch, Mingi burying his face in Seonghwas chest and hugging him tightly.

"There, there" Seonghwa said softly. Rubbing his back.

Mingi cried for hours, clutching the older shirt and venting his emotions. Seonghwa sat there, the younger shaking and sobbing in his arms. After Mingi's tears calmed Seonghwa pulled back a little, wiping the last tear of his cheek.

"Are you feeling better" he asked gently. Running his finger through the youngers pink, short hair. Mingi nodded. Sniffling.

"Thank you hyung" he rasped. Smiling a little.

"Good. Now all you need is ice cream, it will make it even better" Seonghwa said. Getting up to get a tub of ice cream for them.

"Thank you hyung, for always being here for me" Mingi whispered.

Hello. Hope you like it. 🍵

Have a great day.🫵
