NHS likes to think hes a fair person.
Really, he does. He can be VERY understanding, very patient, and quite forgiving if one understands where they went wrong.
Which is why, he is quite confused at how he got here. Nothing makes sense, hes a good person! At least hes always

Tried his best to be! So then why?
He backtracks to try and help himself remember how things came to this.

Come up, which made sense as wwx was now a family man. It was fine, they rescheduled.
The day had went fully according to plan other than that one little thing. No worries though, it simply meant that he could go home sooner to his precious A-Yao! THEY could watch a movie!

Perfect! His day would wrap up quite nicely!
And ah, would you look at that, it was LXCs car! They could ALL watch a movie! He didnt know why LXC was here without dage, but it was fine, wasnt like he had to have his husband go EVERYWHERE with him. And he and jgy were friends!

NHS came in quietly, wanting to surprise them since he was home a good 3 hours early. He was already mentally going through alist of possible movies they could watch when he heard a sound.
He paused, blinked, and there was the sound again.
How odd. What might they be watching

Of course,NHS isnt stupid.
Nor is he ignorant.
However, he had faith in those he trusts! So of course he did not jump to conclusions.
That would be SILLY.
And despite this fact he still remained quiet, each step careful as he made his way past the living room, down the hall-

Really, it wasn't like they would ever do anything bad. They had all known each other for quite some time. LXC and DaGe had been married a good 6 years now. It had been the best wedding NHS had ever attended and no he was NOT biased. LXC was more than an in law. They were family.
And JGY, ah, A-Yao!
What was not to love about him! NHS had really appreciated that he and JGY felt similarly about so much. They had never even argued, at least not about anything serious.
So of course, they had to be watching something. MAybe one of those tv shows LXC enjoyed

so much! Of course that was it. A little weird that they wouldn't do that in the living room, but NHS had crashed in friends beds before and watched stuff so that wasnt odd.
NHS clenched his fist without thinking.
Maybe he was in denial. It was so easy to come up with excuses!

But nhs was no stranger to such sounds. He knew exactly what his dear A-Yao sounded like mid passion.
He just didnt want to believe it.
It had to be anything but that!
Anything!
He wasn't sure what he would do, how he would react if...
if they were...
No.
He didnt want to

That was why he would use up any possible excuse in his mind. It was better than this nightmare possibility.
He stood before the door to their bedroom, his had on the knob but not able to turn it. The sounds were much more noticable here. From here he could clearly hear LXC too.

The sweet words he could hear.
Ah...
DaGe.
poor poor DaGe.
DaGe didn't deserve this. DaGe was so good. DaGe would do anything for LXC. DaGe would be so hurt by this betrayal.
In the end it didnt matter that NHS didnt want to see. At this point he HAD to confirm.
For DaGe.
Ah...
DaGe.

Taking a breath, he carefully twisted the knob, keeping the same silence, before he flung open the door with all the force he could muster.
The door banged against the wall, causing the items on the shelves to rattle, a painting falling off the wall in a crash.
NHS watched as

NHS watched as
the caught lovers scrambled to cover themselves, to pull apart, their expressions clearly showing their shock at seeing him there.
He wasn't supposed to be back so early, after all.
There was no talking as NHS simply stared at them, LXC unable to look at him and JGY frowning.

"A-Sang..." JGY begins, NHS still watching. It was odd, as if he were not the person to witness this. How was he supposed to feel? "I never wanted to hurt you, and for that I am sorry."
Sorry for hurting him.
Not sorry for...
This.
How amusing.
He couldnt help the giggle

that escaped him, a hand flying up top his mouth, his shoulders starting to shake with the force of the laughter he was trying to restrain.

weird for NHS to LAUGH of all things. But ah, what else was he supposed to do?
Cry?
Ah, maybe. That would be the normal reaction. Maybe yelling?
Dage would yell.
But NHS was not NMJ...
And it was his turn to protect his dage.
"How could you."
NHS sighed, shaking his head

Honestly, he was proud of how calm he sounded.
The way his voice didn't even shake.

"We trusted you. Dage trusted you. If its just me, I understand. It hurts, but I would have understood. But you, LXC, You? You are MARRIED. Have you so soon forgotten the promises you made to
Dage? The promise to love him forever? To be there for him through it all?"
"A-Sang, I still-"
"Don't you say it. You are no longer worthy of claiming to love my dage. I once believed you perfect for him. I see now I was wrong. You are nothing but a stain in his life. What
"A-Sang, I still-"
"Don't you say it. You are no longer worthy of claiming to love my dage. I once believed you perfect for him. I see now I was wrong. You are nothing but a stain in his life. What
happened to your morals? Your family is so strict in those, yes? Ah, It would surely break their hearts if they were to find out. It would ruin the perfect reputation of your family name, would it not?"
NHS tilted his head, smiling.
"It is a good thing that I wouldn't tell hm?
NHS tilted his head, smiling.
"It is a good thing that I wouldn't tell hm?
LWJ finally got his happiness, and seeing as he is married to one of my best friends, I wouldnt wish to ruin his sweet domestic bliss simply for the sake of your filthy secret. I wont even bother asking how long this has been going on. You two seemed pretty cozy."
"A-Sang-"
"A-Sang-"
"And ah, A-Yao, I would think such a thing below you. Once again I am wrong. Such a shame, really. I know it would just break your mothers heart. The two of you had worked so hard for a better reputation, a better life. Shes doing quite well helping JYL in the bakery."
"You-"
"You-"
"A-Yao, what do you think of me? I'd never do anything to tarnish her name. Shes a good woman! You know I adore her!"
He watched as JGY relaxed slightly, but he could tell JGY was still on edge.
As he should be.
"You know how understanding I can be. I get it! However..."
He watched as JGY relaxed slightly, but he could tell JGY was still on edge.

"You know how understanding I can be. I get it! However..."
"There are some lines that simply should not be crossed. Aiya, A-Yao, I really thought you smarter than this! There are multiple ways I myself can think of that would have lead to a better outcome! And I know how smart you are! If you had used your brain, we wouldn't be here!"
"What do you-"
"Come on, A-Yao, think! Use that genius brain of yours. Surely you know of the amount of porn i read growing up. Surely you know the things I might be ok with. Like maybe, just MAYBE if you had expressed your interest...ah, but in the end it does not matter."

NHS sighed, this whole situation just too sad.
"It's such a shame that things have to end like this. Ah, DaGe is going to be so upset..."
He looked around thoughtfully, feeling the gaze of the both of them on him. He knew they had much they wanted to say. He was sure JGY

He looked around thoughtfully, feeling the gaze of the both of them on him. He knew they had much they wanted to say. He was sure JGY
could plead his case so nicely. Such a shame he couldnt be phased. After all, this wasn't for him. Even if he could have forgiven JGY for doing this to him, he couldn't forgive this being done to dage.
His mind was empty, which made this so much simpler. He was sure he would

But BECAUSE it was LXC.
Well...
It made this case oh so special.

Also, because his mind was so empty, he noticed something so strange. He did not feel so well.

forming migraine from the stress. Just because he was not letting it get to him mentally didnt mean his body could just shut off the other ways it may react, it would seem.

Was he clenching his jaw without realizing, causing a pain in the area and his teeth?
He could only blink in confusion as he
lifted his hand to rub over his eyes with a wince.
This really was quite inconvenient. He was busy!
"A-Sang? Is everything alright?" LXC's concerned voice made NHS fix him with a glare.
"Shut up."

"Shut up."
"A-Sang, you don't look so well. I know this was quite a shock. Maybe you
should sit down? I can make you a cup of tea and we can all just-"
"I said shut UP!" NHS shouted, both hands now on the sides of his head as all the pressure only seemed to worsen.
"Fuck, fuck, just be QUIET it HURTS."
"What hurts? A-Sang-"
"EVERYTHING!"
"I said shut UP!" NHS shouted, both hands now on the sides of his head as all the pressure only seemed to worsen.

"What hurts? A-Sang-"
"EVERYTHING!"
"A-Sang, we need you to calm down, take a few slow deep breaths. It will be ok. We can figure out whats wro-"
"No. NO."
NHS started to laugh again, it sounding a bit more maniacal to his own ears.
"No it will NOT be ok. How could it POSSIBLY be ok when the two of you TRAITORS
"No. NO."

"A-Sang, please. You are unwell." LXC tried again, shifting as if to move from the bed, as if to approach him with the
blanket that NHS had specifically bought because the print was cute and now just looking at it made him sick-
"Stay away!"
"A-Sang, he just wants to help. We both do. You know that we care about you."
NHS curled into himself some, arms now wrapped around himself as the
"Stay away!"
"A-Sang, he just wants to help. We both do. You know that we care about you."
NHS curled into himself some, arms now wrapped around himself as the
cramping only seemed to worsen, his laughter continuing.
"Oh? Do you now. That is news to me."
"A-Sang don't be ridiculous, here, we will figure this out. You can be angry later. For now just allow us to help you, okay?" JGY smiled as LXC got closer, his hands held out like
"Oh? Do you now. That is news to me."
"A-Sang don't be ridiculous, here, we will figure this out. You can be angry later. For now just allow us to help you, okay?" JGY smiled as LXC got closer, his hands held out like
approaching a scared animal. That was probably what NHS looked like in this moment, trembling and in pain. The moment LXCs hands touched his shoulders, however, the pain seemed to all increase at once, Nhs arching back with a cry along with the intense urge to pass out.
He did not passout,but for a moment it was as if he had forgotten how the breathe. He could hear the faint calls of his name, but they sounded so very far away. All there was fir him was pain, along with a tightness in his chest that grew and grew amd grew until-
It all stopped.
It all stopped.
