-Mingyu

Every night, I set alarms to wake up multiple times a night, to check on Wonwoo. I check on him every hour, starting from when he falls asleep to when he wakes up.

At the 12:00 AM alarm, I notice that he isn't in his bed. I immediately get worried and start looking for him.

While walking by the bathroom, I hear faint sniffling. I open the door, to see if it's Wonwoo. I open the door and what I see makes me want to cry, myself.

Wonwoo, sitting in the bathtub filled with cold water, blood flowing from his wrists.

"M-Mingyu..."

"Why, Wonwoo?"

"I-It hurts. H-Help me Mingyu, it h-hurts." Wonwoo was letting out small sobs every other word. I don't know what to do. All I know as that Wonwoo wants me to help him so I have to try.

I put a blanket in the dryer so that it can warm up, while I go find the first aid kit.

By the time I get back, the dryer stopped and the blanket is warm. I help Wonwoo get out of the bathtub, wrapping the blanket around him when he's out.

I lift him up onto the counter so that it's easier for me to treat him.

I start cleaning the blood off with a warm hand towel.

"Why did you do it?"

"Everything was hurting too much. This is a stupid reason but, no one loves me."

"Wonwoo, the members, the fans, we all love you."

"No, Mingyu, not like that. I mean, no one will love me in the way of a relationship."

Hearing those words, I'm shocked. I think that now is a good time to tell him.

"Wonwoo, I love you."

"I know, just like the other members and fans."

"No, I mean, I really love you. I always have, I just didn't want to tell you. I was afraid that I would make everything worse." I finished cleaning him up and bandaging him, so I helped him off of the counter and back into our room.

"You've always loved me?"

"Yes, and I'll never stop." He didn't seem convinced so I did what I've been wanting to do for so long. I kiss him. It's gentle, and only lasts for a few seconds.

Wonwoo looks at me, stunned, until, surprisingly, he puts his hand on the back of my neck and kisses me. Of course, I kiss back, still making sure to be as gentle as possible.

"Will you sleep in my bed with me, from now on?" Wonwoo asks, pulling away from the kiss.

"Of course."

"Thank you."

We get under the blankets and I wrap my arms around Wonwoo's waist, kissing his forehead before he drifts off to sleep.
