HIS TRUE SELF (DO YOU STILL TRUST ME?)

chapter 8

"Oh of course know. Remeber that did the same? Seems like you're not mad at me"

"I'm not mod at you but I'm also not done with you yet", you said with a smirk.

"Now I'm scared", Hyunjin mumbled sarcastically and giggled, before he removed his head off yours and walked to the door.

"Then I'll go" and with that he quickly walked through the door and closed it shut, preventing you to get a glimpse of Felix.

The time you had got you thinking of what Hyunjin said. No question that he was right- but that was not the point... was it? Honestly, you didn't even know yourself why you were mad at him. Maybe because he was the one you thought that would never lie to you?

Guess that's it, you thought and made your way into the bathroom. Waiting for Hyunjin to get finished outside was a watse of time if you could at least do something more productive.

After a few minutes you heard a knock on your door, and when you opened it, Hyunjin shoved not only a dress and a bag of make-up but also himself into the

bathroom.

You just stood there while storing at him slightly taken aback.

"Umm.... what are you doing here?"

"Well I wanted to talk to you but you're just standing there while staring at me like an alien", he responded and laid everything on the sink.

"Yeah cuz maybe have to change?"

"Go on. Nothing haven't seen anyways"

You nearly chocked on your own saliva. "That's not-"

"Ok I got it", he groaned and turned around "just hurry up"

"Why would you still be here? Can't we talk later?!", you asked him while changing.

"We can't, Seungmin and Felix are in the front seats and I think you should rest a bit- if not would have to knock you out since we can't show you were the gang

basement is, you know?"

"Knock me out?!"

"I wouldn't punch you if you mean that", he laughed and turned around.

Lucky for you, you just finished changing right the

moment he decided to turn around.

"wow", he muttered and started at you.

"Well now who's the one staring?", you asked him while getting a huge self-confidence boost.

"You wanted to talk?", after a few seconds of him and you drooling over your dress you decided to end the silence.

"Yeah", he said and rubbed his neck, "I talked to Felix"

"I think you already know that he's sorry since Felix wouldn't be Felix if he already hasn't apologized about one hundred times", he continued before you could

scold him for just talking to him about you behind your back.

"And also think that you should talk to him... I would tell you to take the time you need but we don't know how much time we have. It all depends on Chan

Ok stop.

Stop. Stop. Stop.

What should that mean now? The whole time you thought that you would just drop by there and then have a little chit-chat with this dude Chan before he'd tell you that you should just shut up about it and go home...

...now Hyunjin was basically saying Chan was the one who counts the last minutes of your life?!

"Hyunjin", you said in a surprisingly cold tone, "don't tell me Chan is going to kill me"

All of sudden Hyunjin seemed to be quite uncomfortable.

Did that mean that

You got interrupted by a door knock.

"Hyunjin? Y/n? For my own sake I don't want to know what you two are doing in there but get your asses out, we have to go", you heard an annoyed Seungmin from outside the door.

Since your mind was basically shattered in one thousand pieces dancing salsa in your head you just went straight to the door, completely forgetting about what you were so shocked not even ten seconds ago.

"Wait", Hyunjin grabbed your hand.

You turned around.

"No matter what is going to happen in there. I promise you that you'll make it out there alive. No one's going to hurt you. Felix and I would pay with our lifes for that"

Now you remembered what you were shocked about. Was it really so dangerous that he promised you to pay

with his life?

Maybe being knocked out was a rather good idea.

It seemed like Hyunjin was aware of your self- struggle because all of sudden, he lifted you up bridal- style and carried you outisde.

Which not only distracted you from your struggles but also got Seungmin quite confused when he stepped out of the door.

"I'm not even asking- can we just go?", he said and rolled his eyes.

Hyunjin nodded and followed him right behind-still carrying you.

"Let me down!", you complained but of course he wouldn't listen.

And a few seconds later you knew why.

Someone pricked a needle in your arm and before you could even feel the pain you already laid in Hyunjin's arms being unconscious.

When you came back to your senses and looked up, you found yourself in a rather modern office room. Right in front of you was a huge desk, placed in the middle of the room. You yourself were sitting on a lonely chair right in front of it.

A look to your left and you saw huge windows, which were closed shut and also covered with some blinds. A look to your right and you saw photos of men and women, pinned on a board. Some of them with a big cross in their faces, some of them with some notes. under their pictures.

Where the hell am I? And why does my body feel so numb?!

"You are not going to do that!", you heard a man scream.

Well- not exactly a man.

"Hyunjin?", you whispered, too weak to speak louder.

"How much times do have to tell you that this is not your business?", a man retorted, whose voice you couldn't recognize.

"Touch her and I'll fvcking kill you, Chan", Hyunjin said in a cold voice.

Chan?

Chan... ...Chan?

Chan!

Your memories came back as you felt adrenaline rushing through your veins, causing you to also be able to feel every part of your body again.

The panic, which came together with your memories, took control over your body and when you wanted to turn around to where the voiced came from- from behind you- you felt that you were not able to move.

You were tied up.

"Look at you", Chan giggled, his voice close to the door, "you can't even walk properly anymore"

What?!

The question answered itself when someone pushed the door open. Since you were still able to turn your head, you of course did so... and what you saw nearly broke you.

Hyunjin was on his knees, inbetween some men. His nose and his lips were bleeding hard, his shirt comepletely covered in it, and he was completely bruised up. Even his hand, which was noticeable holding his waist, was bruised and full of blood.

But his eyes were the most painful thing. Regrets.... sadness....

and fear. "Hello Y/n", the man in the front- probably Chan- said,

diverting you attention to him.

"It's nice to finally meet you. And to welcome you as my guest"
