(BL) Yeonjun — Again #YEONGYU

Beomgyu had always known he was in love. Not suddenly, not sharply, not like in songs where the heart stumbles in a single moment. His love for Yeonjun grew slowly. With every laugh, every accidental touch, every time Yeonjun stood up for him in front of the manager, patted his head, or simply shared the last piece of chocolate — as if it meant nothing. But to Beomgyu — it meant everything.
He had learned to hide his feelings. Too well. He never showed how his heart clenched when Yeonjun walked past him to sit closer to Taehyun. Never said how long he listened to Yeonjun’s voice in his earphones, just to feel him a little closer — even if only in a recording. One day, when it had been raining since morning and the dorm was unusually quiet, Beomgyu took a chance. “Hyung…” — he said softly, like he was embarrassed by his own words — “Have you ever been in love?” Yeonjun laughed. — “What are you talking about, Beomgyu? Who would I even fall for? We don’t even have time for that.” He smiled so easily, like the topic was just a joke to him. — “But what if someone… from our group…” — Beomgyu’s voice trembled — “What if someone from us loved you?” Yeonjun paused. — “I don’t know. I wouldn’t take it seriously. We’re like brothers — it’d be weird.” Beomgyu’s heart slowly sank. He nodded. He smiled.
