Late Valentine

He kept calling Sunghoon's phone still, hoping he'd answer. But no, it just keeps sending him to voicemail.

he should go check the police station even if his heart breaks at the thought of it.

Jake thought for a moment, should he?

He takes a deep breath and starts to walk to the nearest polic station.

Every step he took, his thoughts are in a race. What if what he saw on the news was all fake? Maybe it was a wrong person or they're just faking it? Maybe the crash didn't even happen. Jake is just trying to convince himself so he wouldn't break down.

He finally arrives at the police station. It's almost dark now and Jake is shaking very badly. He hesitantly walks inside and up to the front desk.

"I-I'm looking for information on someone." He stutters, unable to put together a sentence.

The police officer was just about to ask him a question back but he looks up and sees the state Jake is in. Jake is a mess, he's shaking, with puffy red eyes. He can tell something's wrong.

"You okay buddy? You look like a total wreck." the officer says, looking at Jake with sympathy.

Jake shakes his head and sniffles, he tries to force back his tears but he just ends up breaking out into tears. He grips tightly on the edge of the desk, not being able to control his emotions. He's a sobbing mess now, unable to form any words.

The officer gets up from his seat and comes from the other side of the desk. He gently places his hand on Jake's back.

"Hey kid, it's alright. Take your time, what's your name?" He asks softly, his tone is soothing.

Jake imagines Sunghoon would just walk in through the door. With a bright smile he would come and pulling Jake in comforting embrace easing all the pain from his heart saying, "I was searching for you all day, where were you..!"

Jake can practically hear Sunghoon's voice in his head, the police officer's words are falling deaf to his ears as he's almost loosing his senses, with tear streaked face he spoke bearly coming loud,

"Sunghoon... Park Sunghoon. I-is he..."

The officer's face changed into a solemn expression.

"Hold on, I'll be right back." He says, placing his hand on Jake's shoulder then heads into the other room.

Jake just stands there, frozen in place. He's trying so hard to not break down completely. As he waits for the officer to come back, he starts to fidget with his fingers.

The officer comes back after a few minutes holding a file. He looks at Jake with a sad expression.

"What are your relations to Mr. Park Sunghoon?" The officer asks Jake, his voice softed with sorrow.

"H-he's my boyfriend... we've been dating for 4 years." Jake said, his voice cracking trying to keep it together.

The officer nods, he then opens the file. Inside is paper work and a photo, it's a picture of Sunghoon, looking silent, oddly silent almost lifeless self. This makes Jake's heart ache, he just wishes this is all a bad dream.

"Buddy, sit down." The officer urges.

Jake sits down on one of the chairs, his body completely tense. His mind is all over the place, his whole world is crumbling down on him. He's gripping to the edge of the chair, trying to keep himself together.

The officer is sitting across from him, he's silent for a moment before speaking.

"I'm sorry to inform you but, Mr. Park Sunghoon passed away this afternoon."

It feels almost all time stopped in that moment, the words rang loud and clear in Jake's head. He's heart shattered at the news and he can't bring himself to believe it.

He shakes head vigorously, "No, no, no, no, no, no." He says, tears flowing down his face.

"That can't be true, it can't-" His words keep breaking out into sobs, he's unable to control himself.

The officer let's him cry, he can see how much pain Jake is in. This is the worst part of his job. He feels sympathy for the kid.

"Did you... you want to see him?" The officers asks softly, knowing he should've not asked, given Jake's current state.

Scene shifts-

At the morgue...

Jake hesitantly enters the room, it has a cold, sterile feeling.

He's escorted by a worker. She stops infront of one specific stretcher.

Jake sees the white sheet covering a figure, all too familiar. His throat tightens, and suddenly he's feeling sick.

The worker slowly pulls off the sheet to reveal Sunghoon's face.

Jake has to take a step back, his whole body is shaking now as he stares at Sunghoon, trying to take it all in.

Even in death, Sunghoon looks so peaceful, almost as if he's just sleeping. But Jake knows he's not, and he never will wake up again.

Jake slowly approaches the table, and without thinking he gently touches Sunghoon's cheek. It's still warm.

It's the first time they're meeting and like this...

Jake looks at him for a few seconds, taking in every bit of him, all those features he's only seen through a phone screen, now he's right in front of him.

He starts crying again, he can't help it.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no.." he keeps repeating, the words are all coming out in between sobs.

He's heart is shattered into million pieces, his whole world is tumbling right before his eyes.

Jake just wants to see Sunghoon's eyes open, wants to hear his voice one more time, wants to touch him and hug him tightly. He wants everything to be all perfect. He can't let go of him, doesn't want to let him go.

He bends down, resting his head on Sunghoon's chest, listening for a heartbeat that would never beat again. The silence is deafening, and Jake is drowning in his own tears.

The police men watch from afar.
This feels unbearable as Jake takes in the sight of Sunghoon. He's the cause of this. If they wouldn't plan to meet up today-
He feels sick, extremely sick. His knee feels weak as he couldn't take his eyes apart Sunghoon, as a gust of warm breeze hits him, Jake falls unconscious.

Jake falls backwards, all strength he had left disappears.

The police men rush to his side, one of them calling others for help while the other two tries keeping him awake.

It's all too much for him, the pain, the heartache he's experiencing, it's too much. They try and call out his name.

"Hey kid, come on. Stay with us!" One of the officer says, shaking him lightly.
