Unhappy Birthday
The clock ticked closer to midnight. Hyunseung smiled and sat up from his bed, starting to get excited. First, he would let all those well-wishes from Twitter flood in.. then, his own group members' greetings.. finally, he would pounce online with a 'I'M HERE!' and watch the internet chaos unwrap.
Of course, there was one thing he was looking forward to the most. Yong Junhyung's tweet.
He had seen how the usually un-affectionate rapper tweeted 'love you' to their dear leader on Doojoon's birthday, and was expecting the same treatment. Afterall, he'll just be saying the truth.
Yeah, Yong Junhyung must be in love with Jang Hyunseung. So what if he has a girlfriend? Doesn't mean that he's in love with her. Hyunseung had seen how different Junhyung behaved around him and other people, even her. He was positive that Yong Junhyung loves me!
In the past, Hyunseung didn't have a Twitter account, so Junhyung couldn't express his love on every 3rd September. Of course, Hyunseung would prefer a face-to-face confession, but having the netizens and her witness the confession was much more satisfying.
He giggled and rolled on his bed, watching the Twitter mentions drown his phone. The dorm was empty, because everyone else had a schedule
to attend to. But he didn't mind. He knew what it was like to be busy, to be an idol. He didn't wonder why he was the only one having all the free time. It's okay because it's my birthday.
Doe eyes brightened when he spotted a particular tweet.

Happy Birthday Jangtenz
Hyunseung blinked. Wait. Something was missing.
“Where's the 'i love you'?”
Oh god.
He couldn't believe it. Was Junhyung dumb or what?? Frustrated, Hyunseung threw his phone down on his bed and stormed out of the room, going into kitchen.
He sat down on the counter, then roughly jerked open the fridge door to grab a drink. Bright red Coke caught his eye, but it only reminded him of THAT JERK, so he opted for the can of beer.
Hyunseung hurriedly cracked it open and took huge gulps.
“Ugh..”
He let out a sigh. Wasn't birthdays supposed to be happy? No need to talk about any cakes or presents, where's the people? His friends? His family? His love?
Reality struck him, hard. He was alone in a dorm, surviving on a can of beer and birthday wishes from the internet. His friends were out there, working hard to bring fame to Beast, and his family far away, unable to visit him. His love, with a girlfriend.
Hyunseung massaged his temples, trying not to think too much before he turns into some emo kid.
“I'm old enough, this kind of thing means nothing much to me anyway. It's okay, since it's my brithday.”
Since it's my birthday.. it's okay to cry, right? Even if it's just over something silly, I guess it's alright to let it out.
“Happy birthday to me...Happy birthday to Jang Hyunseung, happy birthday..to me..”
Let me put the 'happy' back into your birthday.
Somehow, Hyunseung found himself waking up. He couldn't recall falling asleep in the first place. He was woken by the sound of footsteps nearing him. Glancing around, he saw crushed cans of beer surrounding him on the kitchen floor. He saw his drool traces on the kitchen floor. And he saw Yong Junhyung squatting on the kitchen floor.
“Ah, you woke up. I just wanted to carry you back to bed, but since you're awake, you can walk there right.”
Junhyung picked up the empty beer cans quietly, disposing of them while Hyunseung slowly got up. He wasn't drunk on the beer, but on his sleepiness and sorrow.
Hyunseung stumbled out of the kitchen and fell on the living room floor instead. The rapper appeared and frowned.
“Come on, lazy ass. Aren't you supposed to be more excited since it's your brithday?”
He started tugging on Hyunseung's sleeve, trying to pull him up. It didn't work at all, so Junhyung left him on the floor and sat down beside him instead.
It was awkwardly silent for Junhyung.
“You didn't come online. You're supposed to, y'know. To thank the fans and all. Did you forget or something? Yoseobie tried to call you, I think.”
A grunt was all he received in reply. Junhyung looked down, playing with his own hands.
Then,
“I'm sorry.”
Hyunseung felt a bit more awake at that, ears perking up to catch whatever Junhyung says. The rapper took a breath and continued.
“I'm sorry, that you feel alone, even on such a special day. I'm sure the other guys feel the same way.. Seung, you know we love you a lot, even if we don't say so.”
We.
Hyunseung rathered Junhyung say I.
He kept quiet, not wanting to reply. He heard Junhyung move around, and thought so he's gonna walk away now, huh.
Nah, Fairy Godmother heard Hyunseung's wishes loud and clear.
The dancer felt strong arms wrap around his shoulders and legs, and felt himself being carried into the room. He felt himself being lowered oh so gently onto Junhyung's bed, and felt those same arms now going around his small waist, hugging him from the back.
“You know I love you a lot, even if it seems otherwise” Junhyung breathed into Hyunseung's ear.
Hyunseung smiled and felt something wet and warm fall out of his eyes and flow down his cheeks. He didn't care if Junhyung just meant it as a friend or what. He only cared that Junhyung finally, finally said it.
“Yeah I know.”
Those arms held him tighter, Junhyung's soothing voice sang a birthday song for him.
“Happy birthday to you.”
Thank you...
I love you, Yong Junhyung.
Happy,
Forever.

I think I can only get back to Bench Strangers after my promotional exams.. TT_TT Regret, but nothing else I can do. This is for Hyunseung's birthday, so i definitely had to get it done before the day ends.
Hi again beloved readers XD I wanted to write an ultra fluff but... seems like angst, drama and tragedy has been stuck in my mind for a long while and I really needed to get it out. Still, it's a sorta happy ending. Right? .__.
Depends on how you wanna interpret it. ^^
Thank you for reading, and Happy Birthday Hyunseung. Please find happiness no matter what!
