'What are you doing here? Are you crazy?' He wasn't just shouting, he was angry. Very angry. What did you do? Go on a trip? Is that forbidden?
'You're not the one to say things that way! You've been weird lately and you've been hiding things from me! And why are you scolding me?'
He shots Nara an understanding look and she throws him the car keys.
'Sorry babe' she looks at you pityful, 'i really wanted to have fun and i won't if he's here.'
'What the fuck is going on? Nara wait, i'm coming with you.' You were furious. That little brat! 'I'm not leaving with you. This is nonsense. Bye Taemin.' you don't even look at him as you start walking.
He came here just to stop you from doing what? This was insane, what were you, a baby? Tae may be your best friend but right now you couldn't explain what has gotten into him.
You pass by him on your way to Nara and he grabs your arm to stop you. He whispers 'I wanted to help, you can't be here. Remember. But have it your way. I'll be waiting for you.' he says not giving you another look.
Nara looks at you, still feeling sorry for what just happened.
'Hmm?'
'Nothing. We have to be careful, just don't get near the water, okay?' Her mood completely changed just because she talked to Taemin?
'Tell me! Nara, please. What just happened?'
She looks around at the excited people who came here to see the lake. The sun was still up making the view mystical.
'Not here. Lets go.' she grabs your hand and heads towards the woods.
You can't help but feel amazed at the landscape. It feels so natural to be here, you forget about the legends. The stress you felt at the uni was long gone too. Even thinking about Taemin couldn't annoy you right now. Nara walks very determined, as if she knows exactly where to take you.
'Do you remember this place?' she asks you as she makes space for you to pass between two bushes.
'No? Have we been here before?'
'We haven't. You have.' She said as you end up in front of a old cabin. 'Wait here.'
Nara goes inside the wood cabin. Now that you're alone here, this place seems out of space and time.
Wait.
Did she just say that you've been here before? You need to sit down. You spot a bench somewhere next to the cabin, so you head there to clear your mind. Too many things happened since this morning and it just feels like an infinite day.
As you sit down, you realise you've been coming up the hill and you didn't even realise it. The view was unbelievable up here, the lake seemed so blue just like a huge crystal. You begin to feel really tired all of a sudden so you toss and turn and you end up laying down on the long wood bench. Without realising it you close your eyes and the relaxing sound of the water and the wind make you fall asleep..deep.
'Y/N. I love you' He says. You're with him again.
'I love you too, Yoongi' smiling at him you see again just how beautiful he is.
His black, curly hair, is full of snowflakes and it's funny to see him in this cute posture. You never imagined falling in love with some like him. He was mostly serious before he met you, or so you heard. Yoongi had quite a reputation of being good at everything but the downside of his perfection was that he didn't really want to deal with people. He didn't have many closed friends, just the 6 boys he grew up with in the neighbourhood.
At uni, he only focused on studying hard and practice. He was studying music so he had to rehearse a lot. He spent most of his time with Hoseok, with whom he shared an unbreakable bond. You never came between them, afraid to intertwine with their preoccupations. But the 7 boys welcomed you into their family and now you were here, at the little home they built for you two.
You're sitting on the bench next to the cabin and outside is snowing. The cold winter snow was rough and your skin was suffering because of it but you didn't want to leave this place. You didn't want to leave him.
It was like you were in a fairy tale, but not at the end. At the begining... Where the bad witch is trying to kill one of you to stop you from being together. The evil doesn't know how strong your love is and you staying here in his arms defeats all laws he tried to put you under.
Yoongi hugs you closer and you feel so warm next to him. Your thoughts stop for a brief moment and you're at peace. With him, you'll always find happiness.
You open your eyes. You couldn't remember anything, again. Just the feeling, that you were complete with someone who was most likely that Yoongi dude, again. These weird dreams were pissing you off but not more than the loud noise coming from the cabin.
You watch people that were having fun around you and you feel a cold breeze even though it's summer now.
You get up and you try to find Nara but no one knows where she is. Eventually you go to Hoseok and he gives you a weird look before you start talking.
'Where's Nara? I can't find her anywhere.'
'Really?' He says with sarcasm. 'Have you tried searching for her inside the house?'
You look around and you realise you didn't want to go inside the cabin.
'Erm... no.'
He starts laughing. 'Figured. Ok wait here. I'll go searching for her.'
As you are standing there, Chanyeol waves at you but you don't respond. He comes your way.
'Aye, what's wrong?' Chanyeol tries to hug you but you don't let him. You feel unwell. Maybe it was the fact that you were missing sleep, food or someone else.
'Nothing. I think i just need something to eat. I'm starving.' You try to smile and reconcile with him but he senses there's something else going on. 'Anyway, how are you here?' You try to remember but you don't seem to have any memories about this place. 'Whose cabin is this?'
Chanyeol takes you to the BBQ and gives you a plate with food as he answers.
'It's Hoseok's place. Bangtan built it a long time ago and we come here often during summer. Didn't you know this already?' He looks at you weird as you eat the burger already.
'No. I've never been here before.' You say as you take another bite from the burger and you eat some fried potatoes too.
'Wh-
'Chanyeol!! Come here quickly you have to see this!' His friends are laughing at something while taking pictures of someone on the ground.
'I'm coming!' He shouts back. He sighs. 'I'm sorry. I'll be back.' He gets up and leaves.
You eat the rest of your burger in peace. Analysing everyone you notice Key and Sunny are flirting in the distance, because she has her pretty smile on. She was beautiful, sadly you rarely saw her smile, but you were thankful that Key could manage to make her that happy.
You wish you had someone like that too.
Just when you finish eating you see Hoseok's rushing your way.
'So did you find her? What's she doing?' You say and you get up. But as he comes closer you notice he's scared and that makes your heart beat faster.
'No. Y/N, do you remember anything?'
'What the fuck should i remember? Please don't tell me you're also insane! Taemin is enough for me to handle.'
He looks at you fearful. 'It's... complicated. Look, i can't tell you anything, i'm sorry. But don't worry too much over Taemin. He cares about you a lot.'
'Yeah maybe. Hobi, where is Nara? Why did you change the subject?'
He looks around before speaking. 'Nara is sort of missing right now. Which is why i already called Taemin for you. Listen carefully. You have to go home. Sleep, watch some tv. Don't come back here. Trust me.' He hugs you and you have no idea what is going on.
'How is she sort of missing? Where is she?' You relax a little bit in his hug. He feels extremely comforting. Hobi was never one of your best friends so why did you feel safe next to him?
He sighs. 'Lets take a walk, okay?' He says and starts walking down the hill.
'So let me get this straight. Nara went inside the house before i fell asleep and she hasn't been seen since?'
'Yeah, something like that. How did you manage to sleep on that bench anyway? We only came here after like 2 hours.'
Your eyes widen. 'So she's been missing for 2 hours? Shouldn't we freak out already?'
'No. I've got everything under control. Taemin will help me and we will find her after he drives you home.'
'Okay then.' You felt uneasy about this but what else could you do? It's not like you'd go alone trying to find Nara in this huge forest. Especially considering the lake situation. It was about to be evening soon.
You arrive at the parking lot, where Taemin was already waiting for you. He was outside of his car, nervously walking around, wearing the same all black outfit as before, but now you could see his worried face.
Hoseok hugs you again before he leaves you with Tae. 'I'll let you know when we find her.' He sounds pretty sure about it.
'Thank you. Bye Hobi! Good luck.' you wave at him as you close the door and your best friend starts driving you home.
There's complete silence in the car. No one is speaking and you can sense the tension. Taemin is driving fast enough to make it seem like you're flying above the ground. He seems very angry so you don't bother him. Thinking about today, you need some time to meditate too.
You end up in front of your house in no time so you simply thank him for the drive and go inside. You could really use some time for yourself and Taemin needs to go find Nara so you can't waste his time chatting about anything else.
The next day
You wake up early because your phone is ringing like crazy.
'Ahhhhh...' you grown trying to find your phone between the sheets.
'Hello?' you yawn after you pick it up, trying to open your eyes.
'Yahhhh Y/N!! Wake up! I have some bad news.' it was Hoseok.
You stand up instantly. This was about Nara.
'What??'
'We found a body. In the water.' He sighs...
'NARA IS DEAD???' You scream and your phone falls on the floor from your hand because you're frozen.
A/N: So i was supposed to have another scene in this chapter but i didn't want to make it that long. What do you think about this episode?  Is it too long, should i write shorter ones? I thought about doing that but i wanted to post this one tonight so maybe i'll change my way of posting from tomorrow. Please let me know how you feel about this fanfic, i'm really looking forward to reading some feedback! Thank you so much for reading my story!

Under My Skin 2: The Reality

There was something off with Tae but you couldn't get a grip on what it was exactly. He's been weird for a few days, more than usual after a break up. Ever since he got separated from Ye-rim he was more than just absent, now that you think deeper about it. It was his thing to spend a lot of time in the practice room. He was never the lazy one. So why did you had this feeling like something was wrong even though nothing seemed to be? You had to talk to him soon. Not right now tho, you had something else to overthink.
Who was this Yoongi dude and why were you calling out his name in your sleep? A nap that was supposed to help you became a source of stress. Oh, how much you hated it! The only good thing of your day was ruined and now you were left with so many unanswered questions.
As a normal student you expected a break after the end of a semestrial project but no. Your classmates were out there somewhere, chilling, having good naps. And you were left here, alone, standing in front of Taemin's practice room with a huge headache because of the all nighter you pulled the other day.
Sigh.
Being a student was rough. At least before, you had Taemin to lean on but now, apparently, he had his own issues that he couldn't tell you about. Damn it.
'I will not let this ruin my day' you whisper to yourself as you start walking back to the park to read something since you had nothing else to do today.
Your phone starts ringing interrupting your introspective monologue. You answer it as soon as you hear it without even seeing who it is.
'Heya!' you try to sound cheerful to brighten up a little.
'Y/N!! What are you doing? I thought we were meeting at the cafeteria at 3 pm. We're all waiting for you. Move your ass here quickly or we're leaving without you.' Your classmate/friend Nara was shouting at the other end of the line closing the call as she finished her angry statements.
Fuck. You totally forgot about it! A simple 'let's go to the lake sometime' was instantly turned into a promise and now you had to go to some creepy lake in the middle of the day? In the middle of a bad day when you wanted nothing more but to sleep? Sure why not.
So you start to run to the cafeteria where they are waiting for you. Going without having anything packed up for this short trip is a bad move but you could at least try to have a good time. It was definitely a bad idea to skip lunch for a nap, the growls coming from your stomach were quite scary. Yet here you are rushing to go on a trip you didn't exactly desire to have.
Damn it. You're going to change today into a great day, you'll try to have fun with your schoolmates.
Even though you couldn't shake the weird feeling that was still inside your mind.
What's up with the lake? There was something quite bothering about it's history. Its been said that a long time ago, it was considered sacred because some angels and demons had wars on its surface leaving it be a neutral place, neither good or bad. It was also said that weird creatures were living inside, somewhere so deep in the dark waters where humans couldn't see anything. Well, it's not like that was the case because in reality, it was forbidden to swim in the lake. No one was allowed to even let the water touch their skin as it might cause severe damage and even death if they stayed long enough with the water on their skin. Visitors hours were from 11 am to 6 pm, being able to see the lake only while it was daytime.
When you were little you were so curious about why the poor lake was full of weird legends, but you didn't believe them at all. Something changed as you grew up and you didn't visit it at all after you heard someone died because they went swimming. Or at least so did the gossips say. Actually they never returned, nor was there a body found.
So many people had died ever since, but there wasn't a public reason as in why. Everyone kept quiet about the lake, only the tourists that were visiting it from time to time got close to it. The locals knew the truth. Most of them, anyway.
You shrug, feeling a cold shiver down your spine. Rule number one: don't get close to the lake. Rule number two: don't let anyone else get close to the lake.
You spot the cafeteria in the near distance. The loud music and the people singing send you positive energy, and you start to feel better. Maybe there was hope for you after all.
'Y/N!!!!!!!' Nada saw you already because of the red blouse she bought for you and now she was pointing her finger showing the others she found you.
She was with some of your schoolmates, but there were some unfamiliar faces as well. You wave at her, smiling, trying to put your shit together quickly before she starts questioning you in front of the strangers. Nada had a strong personality, a beautiful face and she was intelligent. She had it all and she knew how to use them.
'Be calm, chill' you whisper to yourself a part of your mantra as you get closer to them, still smiling, to leave a good first impression to the strangers.
Nada starts walking your way, welcoming you into her arms. A good hug will do its magic, you admit.
'Yah Nada, you missed me that much?'
'No, silly. You have your fake smile on so I'm trying to lend you a hand.'
'What?' You break the hug. She knows your smiles. Dangerous. 'I'm fine.'
'Sure babe, we'll talk.' She grins but she turns around to introduce you. 'Everyone who doesn't already know, this is the ever-late Y/N. Let's get going now, shall we?' She flips her ponytail over her shoulder and holds your hand, walking towards her car. 'I'll drive, you can do shotgun.'
Your mood instantly changes 180 degrees, with your eyes shining and all that. The good music was necessary to make this trip better. All this excitement was resourceful so your stomach starts growling again.
'Oopsie, sorry' you tell her and she laughs.
'I knew' she shows you the huge backpack that she was wearing. 'Food.'
'You know me too well' you start smiling.
'That's the Y/N I want to have with me today' she was honest, you begin to realise that she really wanted you to go with them.
'So who's everyone? I only recognize Ten, Kibum, Hoseok and Chanyeol.'
There were approximately 15 persons there, some still smoking in front of their cars, others searching for music on their phones. The 5 cars were aligned, ready to go.
'Well, those are the from the Music Masters Degree' she points with her chin the dark blue car, to your left. 'Some creepos in my opinion but Chanyeol insisted they should come, he said they're some childhood friends, so I had nothing to say against it.'
You analyze those men. They did seem creepy to you too. They were in their car, smoking something while looking at the sky, with all windows opened. There were 4 of them but no one was speaking. Weird.
'Then there's the music degree.' She does the same to the red car. 'Hoseok wanted them to come.' She shurgs. 'Then there's Key and the rest of the design major and Ten with some of his group members. Only Sunny and Seohyun will come from our class, the others were scared.'
'Shouldn't we hurry though? It's going to be 5 soon and we won't be able to see it. And by the way. Why are we going?'
'What? You're scared too? Come on, nothing can go wrong if you stay next to me. Trust me' she winks at you as she enters her car, starting the engine.
You take your time as you look at everyone else, each of them being in their own world.
'This is an interesting group to go on a journey with' you whisper to yourself and you sigh.
'Y/N!' Sunny comes your way accompanied by Seohyun.
'Girls! So glad you came! Nara is in such a good mood'
You all share a look. That means Nara is going to: do something stupid or make one of you do something stupid. There's no inbetween.
'All for one, huh?' Seohyun says laughing but she doesn't want to chat. She goes straight into the car and she starts talking to Nara.
Sunny hugs you. Both of you know it's going to be an interesting trip.
With everyone set up, you're on your way. The road is good and it only takes like 30 minutes to get there despite its location. The lake it's between the two mountains that surround the small city. You play 'Sober' by Big Bang as you're the one with the playlist for the road.
'So Sunny, what's up with you and Key? I've seen the looks he gave you when you arrived. Are you dating now?'
Sunny was one of the girls who could handle Nara's smart mouth.
'No Nara. Not everyone's dating or fucking. We just met at a party a few nights ago and we chat for a while. He seems nice, we really got along.'
'Ok, relax there a little your vein might pop up.' Seohyun was smiling too now. 'Just admit you've been flirting and we'll understand. You are allowed to feel things you know? Miss 'I only focus on uni, studying and working.'
'Nara, watch out!!' You shout as she almost hit the man that was crossing the street. He was most likely shocked, frozen in the middle of the road.
She stopped the car easily, luckily she slowed down the car while discussing Sunny's love life.
While you were all panicking, Nara was extremely angry. She went outside slamming the door.
The man was wearing an all black outfit, but because of the hoodie you couldn't see his face. He was really skinny and not that tall.
Nara approaches him and you see her posture changes while she talks to him. He slightly nods at her and both of them return to the car. You silence the music expecting Nora to introduce him to you but she just tells you to go  in the back of the car, leaving him stay in front with her. You do as she says, but something feels off again. Trying to get a glimpse of his face you turn around to see him, but he goes to the shutgun's place and you fail to see anything as you just go round the car at the same time.
After all that, she starts the car again, playing music so loud you can't talk anymore.
The drive feels eternal. When you see the parking lot you just can't contain yourself anymore. Who was this dude?
Nara parks the car and you rush out of the car to see who the man is. He comes your way too, lifting up his hoodie.
'Taemin?!'
A/N: the plot changed a little, I felt like the initial idea was headed to a more love oriented story and I don't really write that kind of stuff. But I know I know, Yoongi is the main male of this story. Trust me, you didn't want to meet him yet. He will make his big entrance in the next part don't worry too much. How do you feel about this chapter?  Please let me know! Any productive feedback is welcomed, I really want to be better at writing! Thank you for reading my story!

Under My Skin 1: The Dream
read on wattpad
word count: 1k

You were walking down a dark hallway at 9 pm, trying to find the psychology classroom. The university was huge and even after 3 years you still saw new places here and there, something you didn't notice before always made its way to your view. This building you were in right now had classes for design, psychology and music majors. You stopped wondering why would they put these together after a while, because you did encounter some interesting persons from each category with whom you had long, enchanting, conversations. Your best friend Taemin was studying music and he was your perfect match. Both of you agreed you were at least music-taste-soulmates as you just clicked from the first moment you started talking.
He wasn't here with you in this creepy darkness, if he were you wouldn't be scared at all.
'Just around the corner' you whisper to yourself, trying to slow down your breathing. Anxiety sucks. Soon enough you see the door and you exhale powerfully letting out the air you hold on to too much. There is a small lamp on, in the other side of the room, as if someone was still studying there even at this hour. Going around the room you carefully try to catch a sign of someone else being there but nothing seems to be out of place. Maybe someone just forgot to turn it off, huh? You shrug and go to turn on the light. On your way there you feel someone's hand on your back.
'AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH' you scream out loud and fall down but the other person is faster and catches you befor you hit the ground.
'Shhhh', the person says. He says. You knew him, of course you knew whose hand was on your back. Because his name was in your heart long before he touched you.
'What, what are you doing here???' You whisper to him.
'Just don't speak' he calmly answers.
Suddenly you can feel heat raising under your skin, your heart beats so loud even the birds outside might hear it. You can't think anymore so you just stop trying.
He kisses you. Over and over again. He hugs you. You kiss him back so hard.
It's like your life depends on it. He was the one. You felt it, you felt him.
So you just let yourself fall deep.
Breaking up was the hardest thing ever but with him you knew you'd never be apart for long. His heart was yours and vice versa. Nothing would make you separate your ways forever. Not even his devilish powers.
When he first told you about his magical realm you were frightened but not of him. Because he could never hurt you. You were mostly afraid because of the danger he brought upon your world. Magic was strong and you, humans, were weak. For now. You decided to go to him this time no matter what it takes. Everything he did just to see you, all the hardships. You were supposed to help him. Relationships were a two way road. One step, two steps.
Together.
His visits to your world were making him uneasy, weak, powerless. You wanted to be the one who figured it out. How to melt your worlds together without any darkness. You were so close at first but you just couldn't get a grip on how to make it happen after the accidents occurred. There was one thing clear. The next time you met, was on his realm. There has to be a way, right?
'Y/N wake up!' It's time to go' You wake up grumpy as a hand was shaking your and arm quite hard.
You open your eyes and you see Taemin standing next to you, with his backpack on and a blanket in his arms. 'I have to go to the practice room and I must leave but I couldn't just let you sleep like a silly person in the park you know' he started laughing as you got up as well, quickly packing up your stuff.  What would you do without him?
'Yah, you can still be gentle you know?' You we're in a weird state of mind because of the dream and you felt your heart was still racing from the kiss. 'I just had the weirdest dream.'
'I know' you frown.
'How?' both of you start walking towards his practice room.
'You were mumbling the weirdest shit. Who was he?'
'What? Who's who?' you had a bad feeling about where this was going.
'Yoongi. You kept saying his name over and over again. I wonder how you still have your voice right now since you've been repeating that name for like 15 minutes.' He laughs but he's quite nervous about it.
'I have no idea who he is. But i remember he kissed me or something.' You shook off his kiss and you start to think about it deeper. You forgot what was happening in the dream but the way his lips were melting you still made you tremble. 'Is that the only thing i've been saying?' You knew there was something else to the dream but you couldn't remember anything else.
'Hmm.' He hesitates and you know it. 'No i guess that was it.' You put your hand on his shoulder trying to make him stop walking.
'Is there something you're not telling me?' you cross your hands.
He stares at you and he quickly answers 'No of course not. Why would i do that?' he starts walking again. 'I'm sorry Y/N but i'm really in a rush. We should catch up later, okay?'
'Okay! Bye' You wave at him as you stand there. Feeling empty.
A/N: i know this is really short but I'm just starting to get in the mood again. I didn't really write anything since last year and I'm not sure how this will go but I said I'd try again. Any kind of feedback is welcomed! Thank you for reading my story :D

my masterlist
It was raining hard. Mid-summer season had blessed you with a short storm, thunder and lightning surrounding your senses. You sighed as you stepped out of the university into the hot, humid wheather, unhappy about the day you had. A day that wasn't even over yet. You put your backpack over your head and started walking toward your apartment.
Why were you in school when in was the summer holiday? You signed up for a summer course just because you wanted to have something to do during holiday season. All your friends were in their home towns so you decided to stop with the mourning and do something about it. Your family wasn't really a healthy one and spending 2 months with them didn't sound that pleasant at all. So you were stuck here, in a rainy Florence in the middle of the summer. With nothing to do but a stupid course you already regretted signing into. One that was somewhat hard and it wasn't at all what you expected from a music summer course.
You didn't have that much to walk, so 15 minutes passed and you were now searching for your keys. Your wet long hair kept getting stuck to your face so angrily you threw your backpack down and tried to pull a ponytail out of the mess that your hair was now. When you bend down to keep the search going, your neighbor Enzo yelled, coming from the car he just parked 'Y/N I have keys, stop struggling!'
You smiled, he knew you well enough. Or maybe he just stood there, in his car, laughing at you for like 5 minutes. Either one were equally valid. He was a good friend, but nothing happened between you because you weren't his type. His gender type. He was a proud 23 y/o homosexual Italian searching for a boyfriend.
'Always a damsel in destress. Dear, you need to step out of your books and go out there to find your prince.'
'Nah, I'm fine with a Harry Potter novel and a huge bowl of Nutella in my lap. I don't need a boyfriend, less likely a prince.'
'You may say so, but I know you better.' He winked at you as you started to walk up the stairs. 'That's why I come with good news. Go dry yourself up, you'll get wet when you hear me out. Come visit me after.' He entered his apartment leaving you there.
This man and his happy spirit. You were so lucky to have a neighbor like him. So far from home, you were lonely at the beginning but he forcely stepped into your introverted space and that's how you became friends. He was a loud extrovert, but he always there for you. From sugar emergencies to study buddy when you were ill. Even though he was just watching movies while you were studying, you appreciated it. He was there for you, and so were you for him. But you weren't necessarily best friends, more like really friendly neighbors both away from home.
You entered your plain apartment, dried yourself and you were now ready for some gossip. You knocked on his door, and his brunette head came out from a side of the door, trying to hide his body. 'Wait a second, I'm naked.' Of course he was. You stood there laughing for 2 minutes until he decided to open up.
Both of you went into his kitchen, and sat down as he lighted up a cigarette.
'So listen to this. You know Sung Min, my best friend from college. His childhood friend is coming here for fun and entertainmen and he's also bringing some of his friends with him. Apparently they are all some huge stars back in Korea. He said there's like 8 or 9 of them in the group.' He started laughing. 'No no you won't have that many options, only 3 of them are coming here.'
'Hmmm, interesting.' You said whispering,  more to yourself. 'But how am I involved in any of this?'
'My friend said that they wanted to taste the real Italy so they decided to stay somewhere humble in the city not at some fancy hotel. So of course I offered, since I have a spare room. There's one of them going to live right here, under your nose! Here's your chance, I'm telling you. This is exactly what you need.' He said, strongly pointing his finger in the table to make his statement more important. You were looking at him with your eyes wide opened.
'What are you talking about? I don't even know them and I can already hear you planing my wedding in your head ! Stop' you shook your head in disagreement. Hell no. You were fine with your chill life. Even though it was way too chill without your friends around.
'Okay but listen to this now. They're coming here tonight! So I said I'll take them out to eat some real Italian food and then we'll go clubbing.' You were done with his shit. 'I know I know you don't like clubbing . That's why I told them we are going to eat first. There's when you come in.' He said looking at you with his blue eyes.
'I'm leaving.' You said getting up. 'I have a new Netflix series to catch on so if you need me for any of your normal desires you know where to find me.'
'Be ready at 7. And wear something cute!' He said shouting as you shut his door.
Did he really think you'd say yes? You already had a shitty day, you didn't need his drama. It was merely 3pm but it was still raining so the sky was darker than usual. After you ate the lasagna leftovers from your order of last night, you started to think what tv series to watch. When you finished your mental debate between '13 reasons why' and 'famous in love', you said out loud '13 reasons why it is'.
You decided to take your laptop on the balcony to hear the rain as background music, leaving the door wide opened for some fresh air to enter the living room. You sat in the rocking chair with your laptop on the little table next to it and started your marathon.
A loud knocking woke you up. Apparently you had fallen asleep there, rocking your chair. You let own a yawn and went to open the door. Lorenzo's talking woke you up for good. 'Why aren't you ready?? I have a good looking young man downstairs waiting for you!' Was it 7 already? Ah, is not like you planned on going anyway.
'I'm not coming.'
'Why not? Come on, it'll be fun.'
'I just-'
He cut you off, 'No more. You owe me one.' He said shaking his finger in front of you.
Your face fell and your mouth opened so wide it almost touched the ground. 'What?'
'You owe me one for when I got you out of that date with the ugly dude. I pretended to be your boyfriend. You accidentally saw me, came to me in the middle of the street and shouted <no it's not what it looks like>. I played your game and you'll play mine. Wear the most shocking dress you have baby, because we're also going clubbing tonight.' He winked at your frozen expression. 'We'll be in the living room, you don't have to knock.' He said and left.
After you washed the shook away from your face, you put on a slight make-up. It wasn't exactly your thing to wear make-up but you did owe him one. The boy he mentioned was a nerd, just like you. He wasn't ugly, not for you at least. The date was going fine until he started talking about his ex, clearly he wasn't over her yet. You tried your hardest to help and to pay attention but he just kept going. You knew the entire relationship history as he talked non-stop for an entire hour. When you saw Enzo on the street you acted instantly, just wanted out of your date. You didn't keep in touch with the dude, of course. You hoped he was over his ex-lover and forgot about you as well.
You tried on your little black dress, the resistance piece from your wardrobe. You analyzed yourself in the mirror and you were content with yourself. Your long hair was down on your shoulders as the dress you wore had an empty back. You turned around a bit and you saw all your curves were accentuated. It wasn't indecent, only half of your back was left for seen. The dress covered just enough of your legs, to let the red stilettos attract all the attention. You picked up your bag from the bed and locked the door ready to give your best. The game was on.
You opened his door and went inside. You took a deep breath to calm yourself down and you opened the other door to the living room. There he was, the Asian guy. He was really tall, even taller than Enzo. Your neighbor came fast to give you a short hug and he then introduced you to this man who was staring at you from head to feet.
'Y/N, Chanyeol. Chanyeol, Y/N' he said, waiting for you to shake hands. Instead, Chanyeol got up and kissed the back of your hand, looking at you with sharp eyes.
'Pleasure to meet you, Y/N' he said, staring straight into your eyes.
'Well now, it's time to go. Didn't you say your other friends are waiting for us in the old center?' Enzo said, his energetic side showing up as he speed talked to Chanyeol.
'They said something about an old bridge?' He asked, looking at both of you being confused about the location.
'I know the area but we should still call a cab though. It's quite far away, so we can't walk there.' You said, and started to search for your phone to call in a taxi.
Enzo was sitting in the front seat of the cab, leaving you and Chanyeol to stay behind. You didn't really get to talk to him yet, but hell, how much you wanted to. There was something different about him. You could see he was famous from his posture. Even in this small cab he was staying with his back straight, and had an dominant vibe coming out of his facial expressions. He was looking at the buildings you surpassed, clearly the Florence flavour was catching his eye. In the meantime, you were admiring him. His curly dark brown hair contrasted hard with his white t-shirt, and the dark blue jeans were followed down by a pair of white converse. He didn't strike as a insanely rich idol man, but his Rolex gave him away. That thing alone was more expensive than your rent, food and money for 3 months.
You opened your mouth to talk to Chanyeol but Enzo's words interrupted you before you even got the chance to ask anything. He said that you had arrived at your destination. The three of you started walking towards Sung Min, Enzo's best friends and 2 other men, who were waving at Chanyeol from the other side of the road. As you crossed the street you were welcomed by a warm 'hello' from Sung Min and  from the strangers.
'Hey, Sehun, what's with that face again? What's up?'
So the tall guy with a sad expression was Sehun. He didn't seem that happy to be here.
'You were 30 minutes late and I'm starving, can we just go?' He then saw you standing behind Enzo and looked at you like Chanyeol did when you met him. 'Ah sorry, where are my manners. I'm Oh Sehun, and this is Kim Jongin' He said, introducing his friend as well. You shook hands with both of them.
'Sorry we were late' I didn't want to come. 'It was my fault, I wasn't ready.'
'It's okay' Jongin said speaking for his friend. 'Excuse Sehun, he has a thing for food.' You smiled at him.
Sung Min was talking to Enzo about the place you were going to eat at, discussing-fighting about which route to take.
'I know a short line, i can walk us over there in not time.' You said with confidence. All those days you spent wandering the streets in your first year of uni were paying you pack now.
'Sure, just go up front and we'll all follow you.' Enzo showed you his famous smirk.
'Hahaha' You said faking your laughter, starting walking in the right direction. Sehun and Chanyeol came next to you and the rest of the boys stayed behind as all of you didn't fit in the small sidewalk. You thought about some conversation starters that weren't cringe worthy, but Chanyeol saved you before your social awkwardness appeared.
'I really love Florence from what i've seen by now. It's all really fascinating. Are you from here?'
'No actually I'm from Bari.' He had no idea where that was. 'It's in the South of Italy, right next to the Adriatic Sea'.
'Ah, how did you end up here then?'
'I've been in love with this city ever since i was little and i wanted to leave my hometown'
'I can understand why, it's magical here. It makes me feel like i'm in a movie or something'
Sehun's stomach growl made you turn to your left to look at him. You felt so bad you were late, the poor guy was starving.
'We're almost there' You said, trying to stop looking at his red cheeks. He was tall and beautiful. Actually, he looked like a model. He was wearing a black T-Shirt with a V neck, a black pair of ripped jeans and black shoes. He was dressed all black, including his hair colour.
Sehun spoke now, 'I'm sorry.' He was talking about his stomach. 'Tell us more about the city until we get there. I'm interested to learn more about it. What places we should visit to feel like we're residents here?'
'Maybe i can be your guide sometimes this week, i'll hapily be the one who shows you around. There are many places you should visit, but first you should still start with the main attractions like Galleria Uffizi, Santa Maria Novella, the Medici Palace. You don't want to miss those.'
He looked at you with a puzzled phase, 'I think it's better if you just help us out. I'm already feeling a little bit lost' He let out a small laugh, 'I really don't want to leave anything unseen before we leave and i'm sure Jongin feels the same.'
'So do i!' Chanyeol entered the conversation again.
'We're here' You said, happy that Sehun would get to eat soon.
All of you stopped to wait for the other 3 boys, as they were a little behind you. Enzo came and entered first, as you had a reservation.
You sat in the private area, away from the crowd that usually frequented this place. Enzo was offering advice to the foreign visitors about what food they should order, his culinary taste was indeed amazing. The restaurant was big, and everything was made out of wood. The lights were dimmed to create a romantic atmosphere. Your table was rectangular and it had 3 seats on each of the longer sides, leaving the shorter ends unoccupied. You, Enzo and Sung Min were on one side, the other 3 boys oppositely to each of you.
'So Y/N, what are you planning to eat?' Chanyeol said, looking at you from across the table.
'I think i'll go with tagliatelle bolognese, i really love ragu'
'Hmm' he hummed, still looking at the menu undecided.
When the waitress came to pick up the order, all of you ordered something different. Chanyeol was still looking at the menu and his turn came. He closed it angrily saying 'I'll just have what Y/N is having.'
Okay, that was awkward.
'So, where do you want to go after?' You asked Enzo and Sung Min.
'We should try that rooftop party from The Bronze, I heard it's going to be sick' Sung Min said, and Enzo nodded aggressively.
'That's the place.' Enzo was surely looking for action tonight.
'So, Enzo, where did you learn so much about the Italian culinary culture? You surely knew what you were talking about earlier.' Jonging said, looking at Enzo with glowing eyes.
'Erm' Enzo was getting a little bit shy and tried to push the feeling away by running his fingers through his hair. ' I was the main chef on a 6 month cruise. I mean, I started as helping assistant but they saw my potential and I was promoted in like 2 months as the chef.'
'Nice man, congrats. It's not something little for you to actually get to be a chef. Our friend from back home, Kyungsoo, is trying his hardest for quite some time now but he never got the chance to go this big' Jongin said looking at Enzo with carefully. Like he was searching for something in his eyes.
'Yeah, he started off by cooking for us. He used to cook so bad, not even God knows what he did put in there' Sehun laughed and continued, 'But we all ate it so he won't give up.'
'What a kind gesture.' You said.
The boys drinks arrived. All of them ordered wine, only you and Chanyeol had water standing in front of you.
'You don't drink?' He said, looking at you with amusement in his eyes.
'Not usually. You?'
'Me neither.' He smiled at you, little wrinkles appearing on his face as he did a weird thing with his nose.
After a little more chatting, your food had arrived. It all looked incredible and it's smell was like heaven to your nose. Hmmmm... Italian food was your favourite. You wouldn't trade it for anything. You started eating in silence, enjoying the dinner.
The summer breeze hit you hard in the face as you stood at the edge of the rooftop looking at the beautiful city in front of you. You had a non-alcoholic cocktail in your hand and a happy Sehun next to you, who was trying to convince you to taste his cocktail. He just had his first Aperol Spritz and was completely over his head by how good it was.
'Come on Y/N, just try it'
'I've told you like 100 times, I don't like alcohol. And anyway, I've tried it before' You didn't like alcohol anymore, you remembered your crazy sophomore year, you definitely tasted every alcohol off the market.
'Then let's dance for a while?' he tried to flirt with you again. He did it ever since you arrived at the party. How many drinks had he had?
'This dance is mine' Chanyeol said, answering Sehun's invitation as he put his hands on your hips from behind you and pulled you away from Sehun into the dance floor.
'Why do you have to be so possessive? I'm not an object you know.' You tried to tell him but the music was louder now that you were on the dance floor, so your words were left unheard. The DJ was playing your song though, so you didn't mind dancing. You sang along with Alan Walker's remix of Issues by Julia Michaels moving your hips to the beat.
Chanyeol was into the song as well, but his hands weren't touching you anymore. You craved his touch for an unknown reason, so you tried to get closer to him. He had been showing you a mysterious side ever since you left the restaurant, and he mostly talked to you with monosyllabic words. You had no idea why you wanted him to touch you right now, maybe it was the song?
Coldplay's 'Hymn for the weekend' was now playing. You tried to tell Chanyeol that it was your favourite band, but he didn't hear you. He saw you struggling to be heard so he suddenly pulled you inbetween his arms, to his torso. Now you were being pressed into his well worked body, his hands were on your low back, where the material still covered your skin. You noticed he knew the lyrics as well, so you got the courage to lean closer to his ear and you said loudly 'this is my favourite band'. He responded with 'mine too' and smiled at you in return.
You just stood there singing the lyrics to each other with a wide smile on both of your faces, but there was something bugging you deep inside. His hands were still on your back, your bodies were leaning into each other with the music rhythm falling through your veins and for everything to get worse, you felt his eyes undressing you.
Abort mission, trouble is about to appear. This isn’t a game anymore.
'Hey, do you want to go somewhere else for a chat?' Chanyeol told you when the DJ played a different song in the boxes.
'Yeah' you nodded, 'Follow me' you took his hand in yours and guided him to the private balcony of the club.
Luckly, you knew this club well as you used to frequent it in your early crazy days. You used to come here with your friends to have fun, but now everything was different.
You felt so good holding his hand,  it was sending shocks through your body and you felt electrocuted by his touch. Something about him was so magnetic, you felt like you wanted to get to know him better. Or maybe you just wanted him to touch you a little bit more.
He looked amazed at the city as you faced an incredible view now that you were in the opposite side of the building than you were before. The old buildings were illuminated by the street lights, making the view look like it was cut out of an old painting. It was more silent here, but you could still hear the loud music in the far background. The balcony was big, with small lights on the ground and many colourful chairs around. Little unlit candles sat on the edge of the balcony, waiting for someone to light them up for a romantic atmosphere. The rain stopped a long time ago so you were now left with a starry night sky. You looked up at the full moon, enjoying the summer breeze that hit your back, it made you shiver a little as your back was mostly naked.
The place was empty, it was only you and Chanyeol. The silence felt so comfortable you didn't really want to break it, and apparently neither did him. Still holding your hand, he led you to the farest chairs that were next to the edge of the balcony. He really was in love with Florence, even though he saw just a little of it. You smiled as you enjoyed the fact that he felt good in your most beloved environment.
He let go of your hand as he pulled the chairs closer to the edge, so that you could look better at the city. Both of you sat down, waiting for the other one to say something. You turned to your left to look at him. He was so beautiful and his brown eyes were shining deeply as the lights made them seem brighter. He felt your gaze and turned around as well, a strand of hair getting in his sight as he moved so quickly. Before you knew it, your hand went straight to his face to get the rebel hair out of his eye. You felt your cheeks turn to red because he was looking at you with wide eyes and a smirk on his face.
'You really enjoy touching me, don't you?' He said his smile getting bigger with each word he said. 'First it was the dancing, then you took me by the hand and now this' he said with an evil smirk on his face. Wasn't he the one who started this? You started to blush again.
'Maybe I do' you finally said, courage boiling now in your veins. This was just a game. You just had to go through tonight.
'What if I did this?' He said, placing his hand on your cheek, and then moving it on the back of your neck. 'Do you enjoy my hands on you as much as you like being the one touching me?' He then ran his fingertips on your naked back and you felt your muscles tense under his touch. All of a sudden you felt his other hand on your hip and you opened your eyes. When did you close your eyes? You couldn't really process his moves as he turned you around so that you could face him. Your legs were touching his, and his face was in front of yours. He came closer like a predator looking at his little lamb as he licked his lips. His eyes were darker now, as if another person had his hands all over you, not the Chanyeol you had dinner with earlier tonight. He was so close you could feel his deep breath on your lips. Only some centimeters were pulling you apart.
He was giving you a choice, you saw it in his eyes. You could either chose to kiss him and enter this new world, his world, letting yourself be free. Or you could stop now and leave, that way tomorrow would be the same as the day after it, and so on. You were tired of being so responsible, but did you really want to change?
You put your hands around his neck, forcing him to turn around as well and his legs were now on each side of yours. Your thoughts were a mess but deep down you knew the answer. It's not like someone will ever know, right? This could be your dirty little secret.
You wanted to kiss the hell out of this stranger, and so you did.
You felt his lips on yours softly at first, but then you let him devour you as you opened your mouth and let him discover you. His hands were all over your body, but he stayed away from any indecent parts. He was well mannered.
You were still kissing when a loud voice started shouting your name. You ignored it, totally dedicated to what you were currently doing. You couldn't care about anything else. Chanyeol though, stopped and looked in the direction of the voice. You moved your angered eyes as you saw the person was standing there.
It was Sehun.
He was drunk and had his right arm around a brunette girl, most likely drunk as well from the way she was staying on her high heels, supporting herself on his body.
'Hey! Come here!' Chanyeol yelled at them while waving, getting up to bring two more chairs next to yours.
What was he even doing here, how could he knew about this place? You looked harder and you recognized who the brunette girl was. Her name was Sara and she was from your university, you saw her earlier today at the music course. Fucking Sara ruined the only good thing that happened to you in weeks.
'Hey!' You finally said, getting up. You couldn't stay down because you were way too angry now.
'Y/N!' She said with excitement coming to hug you, something you didn't want. Let's just say, you didn't really like her and the feeling was mutual. At least when she was sober.
'Hey Sara.' You said with a flat voice, looking at the boys over her shoulder.
'I saw you coming here with a stranger and i was getting worried' She said and amazed you saw honesty in her drunken eyes.
'Erm, thanks but i'm fine'
'Sara, this is Chanyeol. Chanyeol, this is Sara' You made the introductions as Sehun seemed to be out of it staring blankly at the ground.
'Hey Sehun, are you alright?' You asked gently touching his shoulder.
'Yeah, i just have to sit down i can feel the Earth spinning'
'Wait here, i'll bring you some water ' You made him sit down on the chair closest to him. Chanyeol was looking at you but didn't say anything as you left the balcony and entered the hallway.
When you came back, Sara was gone. Hm, interesting. Sehun and Chanyeol were chatting about something in a different language you didn't understand. You totally forgot English wasn't their first language, as they were extremely fluent in it.
'Here, are you better?' He took a long sip of cold water, emptying half of the bottle in one sitting. He wasn't as pale as he were when you left .
'Yes, thank you. I'm sorry we interrupted you' he said moving his sight from you to Chanyeol and back. 'I met Sara and we danced for a while, but then she said something i didn't hear because of the music. The next minute we were here and i noticed you first Y/N.'
You sighed 'It's okay, Sehun'.
'So are guys... a think now?'
Chanyeol looked at you. You were the one supposed to answer? You waited for him to do it but he didn't and now an awkward silence fell over the three of you.
'Well this is awkward, I'll just leave. Sorry' Sehun stood up, turning his back to you and started to walk. He stopped and turned around.
'Erm, not to ruin this big time again but I have no idea how to get back'
You looked at Chanyeol and you both said at the same time 'I'll come with you'
Sehun looked at you confused and waited.
'Ah right' you said finally unfreezing. And started walking, Chanyeol following you from behind. He placed his hand on your lower back and you felt your body detense. You were good.
You were at the bar with another non-alcoholic cocktail in your hand. You were chatting with Chanyeol, who kept you company as your legs hurt too bad for dancing or even standing on your own feet. It was merely 2 or 3 am at the moment and people were still dancing on the dance floor which was in the far direction of your seats.
Sehun was talking to his old friend, Sung Min at the edge of the roof. As the night passed, you learned a few things about the boys. Sehun used to live next door to Sung Min back in Seoul, South Korea, but because of unfortunate choices Sung Min ended up moving to Italy with his family during his teenage years. Ever since, they kept in touch and remained really closed friends. They basically grew up together, and they decided to fight for their friendship. You admired them a lot. Usually Sung Min visited Sehun as he also missed the place he used to call home, his country had a special place in his heart and he really wanted to visit Seoul as often as he could.
Jongin was dancing with Enzo in the crowded area. That boy's moves were no joke. He was a specialist in ballet, jazz, and so many other types of dancing, you already forgot which. Right now, he looked like music flood his veins and danced like there was no tomorrow, regardless the song played by the Dj. It even looked like he knew the entire playlist, or so you thought, as you watched him hypnotized earlier tonight. You had a clear view of the 2 boys from where you were standing and you could see they were really into each other. Their moves were synchronized and you saw they even looked a bit like each other. Brown hair, bronzed skin, muscles, height, they were all the same, only the color of their eyes were different.
'You can't be serious!' You shouted at Chanyeol's statement.
'Yes I am!' He winked at you playfully. 'I hate memes!'
Your eyes popped wide opened again 'But-'
'All of them'
'Dude, you might have missed the best ones' You were getting serious, and you decided to pull your phone from the small bag you had with you and introduce this young man to some good memes.
'Now, here. I have one folder full of memes' you said with your phone in your hand touching the screen, and he came closer to you to look at it. Your shoulders were now touching, but you didn't have time to think about it as you had a urgent mission to accomplish. 'I have to find at least one that you like.' You said, with the bottom of your eye analyzing his expressions, you had to find out if he was smiling at any of them.
You started to move your finger again on the touchscreen trying your hardest to find the funniest one, and suddenly you froze. You accidentaly found one with a boy in the background and some mathematical proportions in front of him. The boy was staring at them with a horrified expression. More horrified than the boy in the picture, you looked at Chanyeol and than back at the meme, with your hands shaking.
'Wha- What is this? Is this me?' He said laughing out loud, taking the phone from your hand and zooming in. You haven't seen this man laughing so hard since you met him and it was a pleasant sound to hear. Except the fact that he was laughing at you. Chanyeol couldn't stop laughing and the entire scene was extremely addictive to watch.
'I can't believe you have a meme of me in your phone' he was laughing so hard his shoulders were shaking and he was hitting the bar with his palm.
You couldn't help but laugh as well after the shock disappeared. Below the picture it said 'You may not use your calculator on the reading proportion'. Your friend sent it to you when she felt attacked after the math exam she had. You had over 500 memes on your phone, what were the changes to meet one of them in real life?
You were both still laughing when Enzo appeared next to you and Jongin next to Chanyeol.
'What's happening? Are you having some sort of attack or?' Jongin asked lookin at you with disapproval, and Chanyeol just handed him your phone.
'She has a meme of me. I think I'll be forever haunted by my facial expressions that circulate the internet.' He stopped laughing, leaving a wide smile on his face instead.
'You can feel ashamed as much as you desire, I just met a living meme. It's like a dream come true. AND you laughed at one meme so now your statement is invalid' you were content, at least you got him to laugh at your meme.
Enzo looked at you with a weird face, he didn't understand your love for memes nor did he laugh at them. He turned at the bartender and asked for a drink, also ordering one for Jongin. He went over Chanyeol's side to give Jongin his drink and they looked at each other. You felt like you and Chanyeol were third wheeling.
'If you don't mind, I think I'll head home now. It's getting pretty late and I have an early course to attend tomorrow.' The energy you had evaporated and now, not only your legs felt tired.
'I'll come with you, it's too late to go alone. Besides, Enzo gave me a spare key' Chanyeol looked at Enzo for approval, and Enzo nodded at him.
'Sure. I explained everything you need to know, feel free to come and go whenever you want.' He continued, moving his eye sight at Jongin 'I want you guys to feel like home while you're here.'
'Well erm, I'll just go to say bye to Sehun and Sung Min' Chanyeol was getting awkward as well, 'I'll meet you at the entrance in like 5 minutes?' He shook hands with the boys waiting for your response.
'Sure, say bye from me as well and tell them I'm sorry I had to leave so soon' you couldn't find yourself walking all the way over there.
You just said goodbye to Chanyeol, who followed you until you were at your front door. You were now laying in your bed ready to get some sleep. You tossed and turned for half of hour, but your brain just wouldn't shut down. You kept thinking about Chanyeol. He was a really nice guy. Mysterious, but nice and well mannered.
You pulled your phone from under the pillow and started typing his name in the search bar. After you wrote 'chanyeol' your fingers stopped before pressing 'enter'. Did you really want to get to know him in this nasty way? Even so, the information may not even be real, so why bother? He was such a fascinating presence you wanted to know the real him. Quickly you blocked your phone and put it back at his place. You decided to not read anything about him online. You didn't want to get biased by his famous side or fandom stuff.
Anyway, you exchanged phone numbers as you promised you'd take him on a tour the next day after you finished the course. It'll be a perfect opportunity to accomplish your task. It was a simple task, you just wanted to talk to him and find out who he really was. It had to be simple, right?
The next morning you woke up late and you only had 15 minutes to get to Uni before the course started. It was something past 9am, and you were extremely tired, your legs still hurt from all the dancing you did last night. You quickly washed yourself up, hurried to put on some jeans and a plain black v-neck t-shirt, and then rushed over the closet again to get the black converse on your feet. You called in a cab in the middle of this mess and ran down the stairs like it was the end of the world coming after you, but a small sigh in relief left your mouth when you stepped in the cab. You'll be there in time.
Your phone started to vibrate like crazy so you searched for it in your backpack. Chanyeol's named popped up as he was the one texting you, several messages lit up the screen when you unblocked your phone. You smiled, remembering how it felt to have his lips on yours and his hands on your body. No, you shook your head, you're not going to catch any type of feelings. You just want to get to know him.
[09:52] Chanyeol 'Did someone die?' [09:53] Chanyeol 'You woke me up making all that noise in the staircase' [09:53] Chanyeol 'So thank you, next time try not to swear so loud and angry, your voice was echoed and you sounded like a monster' [09:54] Chanyeol 'Here's a good song to lighten up your day' [09:54] Chanyeol Coldplay - you're a sky full of stars [09:54] Chanyeol You're welcome.
You couldn't help but smile. You loved that song. You didn't really want to interpretate too much into things but was that some sort of 'remember about last night?' And now you new the lyrics would haunt your mind for the rest of the day. It was a really bright song, and you decided to search for your earphones to listen to it until you got to class.
[09:55] Y/N 'Thankyou, but I already know the song 🤣'
You wrote cheeky, waiting for his response. You wanted to challenge him.
[09:55] Chanyeol 'I assumed you knew it but you can still enjoy it 😉'
Haha, nice one.
[09:55] Y/N 'Thanks again, sorry I woke you up'
[09:56] Chanyeol 'No problem. Don't forget about the tour you owe me, consider it your redemption'
[09:57] Y/N 'Noted ☺️'
You blocked your phone, smiling at the thought of Chanyeol, and put it in your back pocket so you can continue to listen to the song. You looked outside the window just to notice that you arrived at your destination. Quickly paying the taxi driver, you opened the door and ran towards the imposing building. You didn't have to worry about bumping into other people as you were the only person in the hallway, it was summer holiday after all and everyone who came for the course was already in since it was about to start.
You saw the door to the amphitheater opened, and you entered the room. Slowly and silently you approached your usual sitting place in class, in the back of the huge classroom. After you pulled your notes out of the backpack you eyed that someone sitting in the front row was waving in your direction. Focusing, you looked at the person and you saw.
It was fucking Sara.
Since when did she care enough to actually pay attention to your existence? You waved back weirdly, and you saw her making some sort of hand signs, you and her and something about eating? What? You shook your head dissing her and started to write down the date, leaving behind the weird sign conversation she had with you. The course is about to start and you wanted to pay attention, maybe, just maybe, you'd get Chanyeol off your mind for a couple of hours.
When the course ended, you exited the building, excitement spreading through you. Today was better. It was sunny and hot, and you couldn't wait to see Chanyeol. The tiredness you felt this morning was gone and you were ready to enjoy a good day with him. You closed your eyes for a brief moment enjoying the sun and the heat, taking a deep breath in. Opening your backpack you looked for your phone to text Chanyeol. Smiling with your phone in your hand you started walking home when suddenly someone put their arm around your neck, walking right next to you.
'So, are you ready to get something to eat and talk about last night?' Sara said. It was fucking Sara.
You looked at her with a weird expression.
'What?'
'I told you this morning we should go and have lunch together, I thought you agreed' She said with a mischievous look in her eyes. You stopped walking, forcing her to stop as well.
'No, I didn't agree. I can't go, I already have plans today'
'You have plans with Chanyeol? What's going on between you two?' She said, with an amused phase. She intruded you now and you were getting pissed off.
'That's really none of your business, sorry to offend' you said, your defense mechanisms finally showing up. 'Now excuse me, I have to go' you said making a step but she blocked your way, moving in front of you.
'You didn't offend me sweetheart, but I wonder what his fans would think of you. He's really famous, you know.' So that's where she was going. Maybe that's why she was with Sehun last night, because she recognized him. What a bitch.
'Did you tell someone about last night?' You were getting frightened of her at the moment, she was a really mean person and you were scared of what she'd do with the information she had. Who knew what drunk Sehun confessed to her. You wanted all of them to have a great time here, not to be surrounded by fans that watch their every step.
'No I didn't. Yet. If you promise to tell me everything, I'll keep it to myself ' she said winking at you. 'I'll see you later then, considering the fact that you have plans.' She said walking backwards toward a group of girls that were waiting in front of the building. 'I really am a considerate person. That and I'm your new bff until that Kara girl comes in town. Call me' she said, blowing a kiss in the air in your direction. Ew.
You just stood here watching her leave, frozen in that spot for a few more minutes. You wondered what did you do to deserve this freaking drama, you hated unnecessary conflict with all your heart.
You wanted Chanyeol, but you also wanted to keep him safe and right now, you couldn't really do both. What were you supposed to do now? Walking home you kept thinking how to get rid of Sara's presence in your life, she was extremely unnecessary and only brought drama along.
A beautiful day was ahead of you and you wouldn't let Sara ruin it for you. She wasn't even here, right? How is she supposed to trust you'd tell her everything about Chanyeol? She thought you knew him more than you actually did? So many unanswered question were going though your mind. To stop them all, you pulled your phone and started typing a text message.
[14:35] Y/N 'Hey, I just left school. Are you still up for a walk?'
He answered faster than expected, your phone vibrated in your hand.
[14:36] Chanyeol 'Of course, come over and we'll go from here'
You smiled. Today is going to be great.
You just got home and you were currently in the middle of styling your hair. The perfect outfit waited perfectly ironed on your bed to make you look flawless for your date. Wait. It wasn't a date. You didn't say anything about it being a date. And neither did him. You hit your forehead with your palm.
'Fuck, I bet the other guys will be coming with us as well' you said out loud in frustration.
Well, you did promise them all a tour not just to Chanyeol. Now you felt sorry you didn't bring it up again last night. Well, I guess you had to re-think the tour now because you couldn't really take all of them to see the most romantic places around. It would be more than just awkward.
You finished your hair and your make-up, got dressed and left, closing the door behind you. A long, deep breath was all you needed to relax. Anxiety was overwhelming as you've been waiting to see Chanyeol ever since you said goodbye last night.
After you knocked on Enzo's door, a happy Jongin made his appearance opening the door widely for you to enter the apartment.
'Hey Jongin' you said with a little too less excitement. He was here so that meant he was coming as well.
'Hi!' He said smiling. Why was he in such a good mood? Ooooohhhh... then it hit you. He and Enzo stayed more last night than you and Chanyeol. 'How are you feeling?' He said while going in the kitchen where Enzo was smoking a cigarette. He sat right next to Enzo putting his arm around you neighbor's chair
'I'm okay, just a bit tired. How are you? Did you have fun last night?'
'Yes, I really love Florence. Maybe not as much as Chanyeol but I still do.' He said the last phrase looking at you with a sympathetic expression. 'I hope he's not bothering you too much. He can be a lot to take in when you first meet him'
With that being said, Enzo finally had enough and hit him in the shoulder.
'Don't believe that.' They knew something you didn't but you couldn't really figure out what. 'Anyway, I'm sorry you had to leave so early last night. We had so much fun I think we stayed there until it was 5 or 6 in the morning. The music only got better so we couldn't really leave. You know me.' He said, giving you his sexy wink and you laughed. Yes, you did know him. He couldn't resist the music, it was like he was captivated and couldn't get out. Almost like he read your mind, he said 'Yeah, he's like that as well'
'I'm glad you had a great time and that you enjoyed it so much' You said getting up to get yourself a glass of water. The thirst was too much for you too handle.
'Well well well, who do we have here' it was Chanyeol who just entered the kitchen and came over to the table to sit next to you. 'Hello little monster' he said smiling at you.
'Heyy' you said blushing after he placed a small kiss on your cheek greeting you.
He was now wearing a plain black t-shirt and a pair of ripped jeans. His curly hair was perfectly styled, and had a pair of round glasses on. He looked like a model, so tall and beautiful.
'Are you ready?' He said with excitement, desperately wanting to leave.
'Yes' you said glaring over at the other two boys who sat oppositely to you but they were in their own little world whispering something to each other.
Chanyeol got up, went to the fridge and grabbed two cold bottles of water. You stood up as well.
'Sorry to interrupt but aren't you guys coming as well?' You asked them.
'I promised Jongin we'll go a bit later since we're still quite tired'
'Ah, okay then!' You felt so happy. That meant you had Chanyeol all to yourself.
Chanyeol followed you silently and when you exited the building his excitement started to show up again.
'So, where are we going first? I can't wait to see everything' he said with a smile on his face while waving his hands at the buildings.
'Firstly I thought we could go for a walk in the old center, remember that bridge we saw last night. Afterwards we can go to have dinner in the Piazzale Michelangelo so you can enjoy the panoramic view. It's really spectaluar there, especially at sunset' you said as all your plans were torn apart so now you had to improvise.
'Honestly I can't really remember how that bridge looks like' he laughed 'since it was night when I saw it. I really don't know anything about Florence, never have I heard before that long name you just said'
'Then it's perfect, that way you'll be more amazed when you see everything' you smiled at him as he nodded. 'What's wrong?' His cute face was now shadowed by a frown and he fell deep into thought.
'It's just that I've never been in a new city without using my phone's GPS, we were almost always on schedule, even when I went on vacation with the guys' he let out a little laugh. 'It's a new sensation, to finally be free of everything and everyone.' You couldn't imagine what he truly meant, since he was a famous person you couldn't really comprehend what his life was like back home.
'I'm glad you feel so good here. This city has a way to make me feel more free as well. It's almost like time doesn't exist when you're wandering these streets' you pointed around the small street you were currently walking on, enjoying the sensation as well. Italian streets were full of history and it put you in a different state of mind as well, even though you were in fact a citizen.
'Honestly I don't even care if my phone is charged right now' he laughed 'and trust me that's a lot coming from me. Being here' he looked at you with glowing eyes 'is more than i hoped for from this vacation.'
You laughed at his statement 'don't tell me you're addicted to your phone as well?'
'The hell I'm not' he laughed back 'usually I'm always on my phone.'
'That means we have two things in common. Florence and phone addictions' you told him waiting for him to laugh again but when you looked at his face he was serious.
'Maybe not just those two things' he said not moving his eyes from the ground to meet yours.
You were close to the popular area now, the loud sounds were everywhere, people were talking, others were taking pictures and the energy hit you when you looked at this picture in front of you.
He pulled out his cap from his pocket and put it on, and you watched his moves with curiosity.
'For disguise. I don't want to be recognized, not when I'm feeling like this. I love my fans, I truly do, but right now I want to be just Chanyeol. For one day, I want to be a normal young man, discovering Florence and walking next to this beautiful young woman'
He managed to fit all his hair under the black cap, turned his phone off and hold your hand as you enetered the loud crowd.
You could swear he looked like a happy puppy, overly excited who kept getting amazed at the historical buildings. It was a hot day, both of you were exhausted from the heat but you didn't care. You had ice cream several times during the day and he fell in love over and over again with the Italian cuisine.
After a while, he had enough courage to kiss you on the lips right there in the middle of Florence. You were ever since, holding hands.
You even got lost a couple of times but he loved it. He wanted to discover everything, not just the popular places. The streets you wandered on were new even to you sometimes, since you've never been adventurous enough to enter them on your own. The walls surrounding some streets were so high, that some of them were hidden from the light, so he squeezed your hand from time to time to make sure you were okay.
You were now sitting on a bench, with your coffees next to you, looking at the fountain of Neptune. It was a well deserved break from all the walking you've been doing, even thought Chanyeol gave up and found you a taxi to get here.
You were talking about yourselves, opening up about your lives, your sorrows and your dreams.
'You know, sometimes I feel like no one really knows the real me. I'm surrounded by people almost all the time and I put this happy face on because of the image I created at the beginning, but no one wants to go deeper. It's like I'm the 'happy virus' and just that. I feel so suffocated by all of it. I'm forcing myself to be happy even when I'm not, but it's tearing me apart'
It broke your heart to hear him say that, yet you stayed silent, listening to all his dark thoughts he's been keeping inside for way too long. You wanted to help him but you didn't know what to do so you just stood there in his arms, holding his hand.
'Maybe this vacation is good for you after all, you can use it to get rid of these negative thoughts. You cand always be yourself when you're with me.' You looked him in the eyes when you said the last phrase. 'And you don't have to feel pressured to make people happy all the time. I'm sure they will all understand, even your fans. Especially them.'
He didn't answer, he just squeezed you closer to him.
'I can't thank you enough. For today. For everything. For being who you are'
After 5 hours, you were quite tired from all the walking and eventually you found yourselves sitting at a terrace in Piazzale Michelangelo enjoying the panoramic view. He was eating a huge pizza on his own while you chose to eat a piadina, your favourite.
You found out that you had much more in common, from comics to music. He was surprised to hear that you were studying music, even offered to come with you this week at one of the courses. Of course, when you told him that he wouldn't understand anything he felt offended, regardless the fact that you were talking about the language. He gave up, agreeing after a while, but you told him he should come over at your place to use your guitar if he felt like it. He didn't bring his since the other boys didn't let him, they insisted on the fact that they were here on vacation so they should spend more time outside.
Right now you weren't talking, and you loved the fact that with him silence was never overwhelming. It was in fact completely comfortable. Never in your life have you met someone with whom you felt so good to be yourself. You enjoyed this way too much, his presence was fitting yours too well.
'Give me your phone' he didn't even bother to ask anymore. You handed him the phone and he took a picture of you still enjoying your food.
'Heyyy. I thought you wanted to look over the pictures not capture me with my full mouth' you whined at him but he laughed.
'I want to capture everything. That and you looked beautiful. You know you're not supposed to moan when you're eating'
'But this is so good' you groaned again at the taste as you took another bite.
He laughed at you and shook his head.
'After all I've seen today, I'm more surprised by your love for food than anything else' he smiled at you.
'Wait until you see me eat Nutella then.'
'Is this an invitation?' He looked at you with a grin on his face.
'Don't be rude, I'm still eating' you jokingly punched him in the shoulder but he grabbed your wrist right after and intertwined his fingers with yours. He looked at you with a different gaze now and he patted your hand with his thumb.
'I don't want to be rude, but I just love joking with you. I don't think it's possible for someone to get pissed off so quickly from all these small things' he said taking a bite from the last piece of pizza.
'It's not like that' you whined again. Or was it? 'Okay maybe I am like that sometimes.'
'I think I start to know you, hm? Even better than yourself?' He grinned at you again and you couldn't help but smile this time.
'Let's not exaggerate. Anyway, it's mutual. So be careful'
'What are you going to do? Whine more or?'
'Stop being so funny, I might choke to death'
He didn't respond but he finished his food with smiling eyes. You liked how the crinkles around his eyes made him look. After you finished eating as well, you asked for the check. He insisted on paying but you were not okay with that, so after a long debate each of you payed for his own consummation.
'Come! Be quick!' He took you by your hand again as you got up and ran over to the stairs to see the panoramic view of Florence as the sun poured his warmth over the city. The sunset was here and the colors made everything seem like a dream. But this wasn't a dream. You were really here, taking photos of a smiling Chanyeol and laughing at his silly faces.
When the sun was almost down, you signaled him to sit down on the top of the stairs, where many people where already waiting for the sun to set. So you sat right there on the hot ground, with his arm around your shoulders and your head on his shoulder, holding hands and watched silently as the sun disappeared from the sky. You were surrounded by so many people yet the only sound you heard was his calm breath in your ear and his humming of Coldplay's song Everglow.
You were now almost home, both of you laughing out loud.
'I told you that was not the street!' You said between laughs.
'I told you not to tell me! Damn, I really thought I knew my way back here.'
'Your GPS is not working? Can't you see the Moon to guide you?' You laughed again, still amused by the fact that Chanyeol thought he knew his way back on his own.
You accidentaly entered a deadened streed and met a stranger who scared the shit out of him. He thought he was about to get beaten up by the man but actually he lived there and you trespassed his private garden so he calmly told you to leave. The man was indeed scary, with tattoos, piercings and had a muscular mass twice the size of Chanyeol's weight.
'Next time I'll know better. I have to learn this, I hate getting lost. My friend Baekhyun is the one who usually gets lost, I'm always the best one when it comes to spatial orientation' he smiled but there was sadness in his eyes, he missed his friend.
'Don't worry, I'll help you remember it next time'
As you approached the building he pulled his phone from his pocket, turning it on. Suddenly, his phone started to go crazy with notifications and his face went from red to pale in a matter of seconds.
He was frozen in place when you felt a cold hand getting a grip of your wrist, turning you around.
It was fucking Sara.
'What do you want?' You snapped.
She pulled you away from the frozen Chanyeol, hiding both of you into the shadows.
'Is that how you talk to your best friend?'
You looked at her with the most straight face you thought you had in you. How did she even knew where you lived?
'I just wanted to give you this phone' she handed you a burner phone 'my number is the only one saved so you can call me when you get upstairs'
'What? Why?'
'For updates' she simply said, and gave you her glorious evil smile. It made you shiver. 'I'll leave now, but don't forget to call me. I'll help you clean up the mess you made'
You stood there for a brief second after you put the phone in your bag. What the hell was she talking about?
Chanyeol was still in the same place you left him, but burried his phone in his pocket before you got to him. A fast emotion came and left his fast before you could tell which.
'Who was that?' He asked curiously.
Fuck.
'Just a colleague from university. She lives in this area and just came to say hi' he looked at you like he knew you lied. You couldn't really tell him, could you now? He couldn't read your expression so he just gave up without any more questions.
He opened the door without speaking and he took his cap off stuffing it in his pocket. When you arrived at your front door he looked at you with a strong phase. Something was wrong, you felt it.
He cupped your cheeks and pressed his forehead on yours, closing his eyes. You did the same but you couldn't understand anything. What was going on?
He pressed his lips on your nose and opened his eyes waiting for your agreement. You didn't say anything but pressed your lips on his closing the gap between you. He was holding onto you but as the kiss grew wilder, he stopped.
'I'm sorry' he whispered so silent you thought you had imagined it.
'What for?'
In response he just clenched his jaw, pulling you into a tight hug. His hands were on your back and hair, and you put yours around his neck. His breathing was deep and when he broke the hug, giving you another kiss, you felt it to your bones that something was incredibly wrong. It felt like a goodbye kiss.
'I will never forget today' he whispered again as he turned around to leave.
You were afraid to ask but the questions slipped before you could stop it.
'Will I see you tomorrow?'
It was echoed by the walls but there was no answer. When you heard his door being shut you felt your tears starting to find their way down on your cheeks, uncontrollable sobbing coming out from your mouth. You were so confused about what was going on, but you kept crying. It was too much. You finally found someone perfectly made for you and now what?
With trembling hands you emptied your bag, and found the phone Sara gave you. You tossed it in the trash and prepared yourself to go to sleep.
When you were all cleaned up and considerably more chill, you finally decided to check your phone. You sat on the bed with your phone in your hands checking all your favourite apps. But instead of the usual posts, it was full of pictures and articles.
'EXO's Park Chanyeol was found with a stranger walking the streets of Florence, Italy. Is she going to be his next victim?'
'Park Chanyeol and Italian girl spotted in the crowd of tourists.'
'EXO's Sehun, Jongin and Chanyeol vacation location was found, but who is this mysterious girl?'
Thankfully, whoever sent the picture blurred your face so you weren't recognizable, but how did this help you?
Comments were flooding in the bottom section. And each one of them was negative, full of hate. 'She doesn't deserve Chanyeol', 'it should've been me', 'I bet she looks terrible that's why we can't even see her face', 'we have to find her', 'she looks so ugly', 'why is she dressed like that when she's with our rap god?'. You shut down your phone sobbing in your pillow. How could his happen? All you wanted was to discover who the stranger from downstairs was. You cried and cried for what seemed like hours. You couldn't lie to yourself. You knew he was famous, but you didn't really think about the harm you'd experience. The only thing you wanted was to know more about him. But now you did, and it didn't make things any easier.
He knew, and he left.
You wiped your tears away and went to the trash can. There's only one thing you could to not to be recognized by the fandom. Picking out the phone you called the only contact in the list. Trying to control your sobbings you sat at the edge of your bed.
'I knew you'd call, I've been waiting.' Sara was clearly proud of herself, she didn't even cared to say hello.
'Can you help me?'
'Of course I can' she said smiling at the other end of the line.
Chanyeol POV
She looked at me with a scared face but I couldn't tell her anything. I wanted to protect her but I failed and I don't know what to do now. I know I broke her heart, I know she felt it was a goodbye kiss. I already called my manager and told him to fix the online mess. By morning, all those pictures of us should be forever erased from the internet. He assured me he's going to find out who put them there and buy all copyrights from them.
But until then, all I can do was to disappear from her life and hope she'll forget about me. Deep down though, I know I will never forget her. I will always remember how stunning she looked in that black dress, and how she shivered when I touched her for the first time. Her lips felt so good on mine, like they belonged there.
Today was going to be a memory I will hold on to for a very long time. I have never opened up so much to anyone but her. She had something, something really special that made me go crazy.
As I sat on the bed trying to get some sleep, I was looking at the pictures of us. The only ones I had were the ones paparazzi captured. How long has it been, one hour? Maybe more? I wish I had the pictures I took of her when we were happy with not one care about the world. I needed to remember that today wasn't a dream. She was real.
As if she heard my thought, I got a message notification. Her named popped up on my screen and my heart fluttered. This was my chance, maybe i could fight for her if she wanted me to.
I opened the messages only to see that she sent me our pictures. I wanted to text her back, I could at least thank her or ask her how she was feeling, but I couldn't. She had blocked my number.
Never in my life have I needed my guitar more than I do right now.
I spent that night looking at the memories we made. How it felt so surreal to have her next to me. Of course it couldn't last just a bit more longer. I am Chanyeol, of course I had to fuck things up. I should've known that damn cap wasn't enough to keep me from being recognized and I put her at risk.
I was almost asleep in the early morning, when I heard her. She was playing a sad song on her guitar. I stood there unable to close my eyes again, just listening to that beautiful sound. I needed to see her but I couldn't, for her own safety. When the music stopped, I rushed to to window waiting. That was the first morning I watched her leave to that damn course.

'Y/N, are those papers ready already? We don't have all day, hurry up for fucks sake!' Your boss shouted from his office, and you tried your hardest to write faster.
'I'm coming, i'm coming!' you said, rushing into his office and carefully placing the papers on his desk.
'You can go now' he said, and you knew he wanted you to check on that patient he had downstairs.
'Should I go and see how your next patient is doing? Will you be able to see him now?'
'Yes and yes' he said as he started to check on the patients papers you just finished reviewing, obviously not paying any attention to you anymore.
You went downstairs, walking down the stairs right before you saw him. He was so beautiful you couldn't help yourself but stare. His posture meant dominance, his hands were over his chest and his legs were straight as he was up next to the window. He turned around as you went closer to him, but he had a frozen look on his face. He has been waiting for the psychiatrist for a while now. You tried to approach him by saying 'Hello! Doctor Yirume will see you now. How are you feeling today?'
His brown hair was covering his left eye as he spoke up to you. When he saw you his eyes started glowing and he smiled a little before he spoke up. 'How do you think I am? Haven't you read my application? Or don't you have any idea why I'm here? Could you give me my presprictions now? Ahhhhhh go away!' He said, hurrying to the window again, covering it with his jacked. There was nothing there.
You started to be a bit defensive. Who was this young man? 'Erm, I am not allowed to say this kind of information nor give you any kind of medication, I'm sorry. Come with me i will lead you to the doctor.' You turned to leave but he instantly came from the window and pulled you by your wrist. You were now trapped into his arms as his grip on your arms tighten.
'How can you not know who I am?' He whispered to you. He was now looking straight into your eyes, a sad shadow hovering over his face.
'Wha?! Let me go, please.' Damn, you had no idea how to approach this guy who was clearly having some sort of attack. Maybe schizophrenia? Paranoia?
The next thing you saw was him pulling a gun from his jacket and pointing it at your stomach, covering it with his body so it would remain hidden.
'Move and stay silent.' He said lowering the gun but still pointing it at your body and heading both of you upstairs. 'Don't say a word until i come out with the prescription, or i swear i will shot you.' He went into the office and looked at you again as he left the door opened.
What the fuck was happening? Who was this man?
Suho's POV
You held Y/N in your arms, not knowing exactly what to do next. Your hand was on her face, as silent tears came down on your own. She was your best friend and you had no idea how to help her anymore. She couldn't always keep it together in front of you and you couldn't stop thinking about the trauma she must have gone through 1 year ago.
'Fucking Luhan and his fucked up mental state. We should've told you a long time ago about him.'
You couldn't hide this from Chanyeol anymore and you knew it. You had to call him and make him aware of the situation. Her panic attacks were the same, not to say worse. Whenever she heared a loud sound she would remember about the gunshots fired at herself and her mind would shut off. She thought she was careful, but daily her depression was still there and you knew the reason why.
You took her in your arms, and went into your room putting her on your bed lightly. You knew her room was a mess yet she never let you go inside, that's why you've been working in your own room lately. You searched for the phone, and started dialling Chanyeol's number.
'What do you want?' Chanyeol's voice was blunt, you two barely spoke ever since you left the group one year ago.
'She's not okay.'
'I fucking knew it. I'm coming over now, we have to talk.' He said, abruptly ending the call.
You looked at Y/N in the slim light. Little did she know you gave up your spot in EXO to keep her safe. Little did she know about the other almost-member, who who have been kept hidden from the public since he couldn't enter the group. What were you going to do now that she may live in the dorm with the other guys, unable to not hear all those stories that the members had. The secrets will come out. She will eventually learn the reason why they couldn't find a new leader. And she may never speak to you again.
You slowly went to the door, leaving her on your bed as Chanyeol was there already. You opened the door and he rushed past you straight into the living room. You let out a sigh as you closed the door, you two haven't spoken since you left. Or at least, just the two of you. He visited Y/N a couple of times but you weren't interested in conversations so you tried to stay out of it. He even spent the night over a few times but again, you tried your hardest to ignore him.
'I should say I'm not suprised. I knew she hid it from me but I thought she was on her way to fixing herself already. It's been an entire year.' Chanyeol looked so tired, he was back to his original self now and he looked drained.
'She is getting better, but loud sounds still affect her. Physically she's over it, but mentally the little things trigger her harder then she thinks.'
'Honestly I know the danger I put her in if she comes to the dorm to help us, and I want to ask for your advice. How is she? Do you think she can do it?' He looked at you with a worried expression, he did love her a lot you can't deny it. Even though he hid almost everything about EXO from her, it was for her own sanity and you approved it. You didn't share anything either.
'Well she already knows about Luhan, at least the informations she read on that damn file. She lost her job reading that damn report, I mean I don't see how it was worth it. I do understand why she did it though. If a stranger who came to your resident doctor for medication threatened and even shot you damn right I'd want to find out what his business was. But I do think she could help you. She's stronger now, she'll get over it eventually and it would be okay to keep her mind occupied. She really loves to help people, so I suppose helping you would mean a bigger part of her would be implicated. But let her decide, it has to be her decision.'
'I see. Thanks, man. I... I really appreciate how much you care for her. I-' he wanted to say something else but he stopped. He was definitely struggling. You frowned.
'No need to thank me, I consider her my sister as well. You know I'll always be here for her. You, you look really bad. Are you okay?' you started to get worried for Chanyeol, he suddenly became really pale.
'Yeah, I just need some sleep. Is she in her room?'
'No, I put her on mine.'
'I will get some sleep in her room then. We'll talk to her in the morning.' He shook his head and started heading towards her room.
'Fuck all of this, I need a drink.' Your mind was in 100 different directions, and you needed a good night's sleep to recover but you knew you could kiss you sleep away if you didn't write all of it down.
Y/N POV
You slowly opened your eyes. You were in Suho's room, he was sleeping next to you in his bed. He was all over you, his hand was on your waist and his head was on your shoulder. He was trying to protect you even when he was sleeping.
You had another attack and he saw it. It's been so long since you had one because you've been cautious but now he knew. You were truly making progress, not thinking about it. You were working on your paper now and it was more than you thought you would do. You slowly put his hand away and managed to get up without waking him up. You went into your room and fell on your bed in the darkness of the night.
'Auch! Wha the?' You hit a body and you saw his long figure as you pulled away from him. 'Chanyeol! What are you doing here?' you said, shaking his body to wake him up.
'Well good morning healthy human.' He.fucking.knew. 'As you're awake now, i have good news! You have two options. I move here or you move into the dorm.' He surely wasted no time.
'Not now Chan. Just go to sleep and we'll talk in the morning.' You sat next to him and you both fell asleep shortly after.
The next morning was silent, none of you spoke as you all sat at the dining table. After you all ate and had coffee, you got up to leave but Chanyeol suddenly spoke.
'What did you chose? Which option will it be?' Damn this boy was straight up to the point.
'I don't want to go there Chan and you know it! But maybe it would be a good idea to help you after all, since it would make me think of something else.' You looked down, ashamed of yourself and your own problems.
'Is it really what you want?' Suho asked you, looking over at you with a worried face.
You were so sick of everyone being worried for you. From now on, you're going to make more effort into getting better. Starting with helping the boys find a damn leader.
'Yes, i want to help you guys. If you'll excuse me, i'm going to my room to think about it and try to figure out a way to begin with.'
You left the room leaving the boys behind. You had to think how to help some boys you had no idea who they were. If only they thought you this in school. You've been procrastinated finishing your degree for 2 years now. Too much had happened and you couldn't find a way to finish your paper to finally and officially become a clinical psychologist. You've been working in this domain for 5 years now, ever since you started the studies but they did not fully prepare you for the real world, where bad things happened to good people and not all damages could be fixed.
You sat at your desk, prepared to make a change. Your mind was at it too, and that's when you decided you're going to fix whatever needed to be fixed in this EXO band and in yourself. You put your laptop in front of you, and started writing.
Suho POV
After Y/N left the kitchen, you started to feel a little bit dizzy. Her presence had this effect on you, like she magnetized you with her eyes. You've always felt like she was somehow your other half. Not in a romantic way, you've been thinking that she was your friendship soulmate or something. Your serious spirit always felt connected to her kind, happy spirit. Your bad puns contrasted to her good light jokes. It felt so good to have here with you, even in the house you felt like her other half. She was the one who cooked, you were the one who cleaned up. You both helped each other with everything. The two of you were one. Chanyeol was in his own little world, writing something on his phone.  You decided to get up, wanting to check on Y/N again to see if you could help her with something. You surely had some books she could use. Suddenly, he looked at you and said with a strong figure, 'Don't even think to make a move. I've seen the way you looked at her this morning. Last night you said she was like your sister. Well I didn't sign up for any type of incest so sit your ass down right now.'
Fuck this dude was direct. You smiled. Maybe you did miss him a little bit.
'Chill, I was just going to work on my presentation. I have a huge event coming up next week and I have to be prepared.' You looked at him amused, he was younger than you and he was so protective of Y/N you sometimes forgot that.
'I have to leave.' He said, all of a sudden shoving his phone into his pocket. 'Can you bring her to the dorm when she's ready?'
'Sure, but it might take a while.'
'No problem, whenever she's ready.' He got up and left so quick like he was up to something. He even forgot to say goodbye to Y/N.

Damaged (part 1)
Tumblr media
genre: alternate universe
wordcount: 2.3k
warnings: none
summary: Your brother Chanyeol always tried to keep EXO as far as he could from you and your life, but now he has no choice but to ask for your help. Your friendship with Suho isn't making things any easier for him, especially now that you shared a flat with him. What will happen to EXO now that the leader had left? Are you going to find a way to solve your problems, their problems AND save the group? Ah, that's nothing, there wasn't any pressure on you. At all.
my masterlist
You wake up shaking and your eyes instantly search for the clock on the nightstand.
'Fuck, it's already noon', you sigh as you force yourself to wake up.
You get up and you pull the purple curtains away from the windows, making room for the light. The messy room is full of dirty clothes all over the floor, plates are standing on the table next to your laptop and your only wish is to go back to sleep. What a way to start the day. At noon.
'I should just give up', you whine to yourself as you take one of the coffee cups from the nightstand. You totally forgot to wash them yesterday, again. Slowly approaching the kitchen for the necessary coffee, you notice another pair of shoes at the entrance.
'Great, just what I needed', you whine again.
'Goodmorning Y/N', Junmyeon yells from the kitchen hearing your footsteps. 'Come in faster, I just made coffee'.
In all bad there is good, eventually. That's the least he could do. The big mountain that was waiting with him must have something big to share.
'Spill it out.  Why is h-'
'I've missed youuuuu!!' Chanyeol comes from the window interrupting your bad mood to express itself and hugs you hard lifting you off the ground. 'You don't look better' he turns around to face Suho as he continues to get angry. 'What have you been doing ?' he says enraged, pointing a finger at the poor guy's face.
'Chan stop, I'm better.' He totally ignores you as he starts walking towards your room. 'No, stop!' You try to stop him but it's not working, he takes your hand off him and sprints to your apocaliptic room.
He enters your room.
'So this is what you've been up to?' He gestures showing you your room as if you didn't knew how it looked like. 'Have you found a job yet? How is your paper coming up? Do you want to move back?' He starts talking and he just never stops. You loved your brother but you just can't stand him worrying so much for you especially when he expressed it with super speed.
'Chan, I'm fine. I just need to take things slow. Let's go back to the kitchen and we can talk while I'm drinking my coffee.' He knew you weren't a morning person and that coffee was essential for you. He gave up eventually, and he went out, slamming the door, rushing past you.
You stood there thinking about his questions. Things were hard but you didn't want to think about all of them right when you wake up. He just fucked you up already. Brothers.
After contemplating over how to not spend time in the kitchen with the two men who were most likely already fighting, you turned around decided to just grab your coffee and return to your cave.
'So did she explain or no need for that now?' Suho said but he was really nervous now, you could see it in his eyes. The thought of you moving back with Chanyeol made him sad. He was your best friend after all and wanted to be there for you.
'No she didn't but you better do it soon. Both of you.'
Suho started to explain what you've been up to in the last 2 weeks. Chanyeol was listening carefully as if he was searching for signs of another breakdown.
As you washed your mug you realized he may have some problems with Suho that's why he insisted on you moving back with him. Also, you weren't making any progress coping with your major life changes. University wasn't easy and studying psychology was harder that you expected but you loved it. Suho was studying literature at the same university as you. He was currently working for his PhD, soon to finish his studies and start teaching.
'First of all, what's up with the sudden visit?' You eventually spoke up as you held your coffee mug safe between your hands. You went to the table and sat oppositely to Suho, Yeol being on your right.
'Kyungsoo is going to film a movie in the U.K., so i can use his room for now if you want to move in mine. It's been a while since you lost your flat and I thought i'd look up for you better if you were there with me.'
He'd been so overprotective since you lost your job and your flat that now he was trying to control you. Just a while more and he would find you a job in the entertainment industry.
'We talked about this. I can't write my licence paper with you pressuring me all day. Plus, sometimes even your talking is annoying and I need silence to work well'. You were so thankful when Suho offered to let you stay with him, you were sick of Chan and the boys back at the dorm talking all the time.
'I'm not depressed anymore so just chill.' you said, taking a long sip of coffee.
'But your room and your face say otherwise', he fought back looking at you with his eyes wide opened. He was worried, but he had to let you do this on your own and deep inside he knew this.
'It's just that we've been working in Suho's room for the past week and I didn't really get to spend so much time in mine'. You try to defend yourself but you knew he saw right through you and your words.
'Yeah, sure. Working.' He said looking at Suho with his brotherly eyes full of protection . 'No need to repeat the discussion, right brother?' he said patting Suho's shoulder.
'Stop this, you know i'm here for Y/N and she truly is doing better. Just get on with why are you here, you could've checked on us through the phone'. Suho got anxious. He went to the fridge to get some orange juice. Or, maybe he was just trying to ignore Chanyeol's look.
'Well, as Suho gave up his spot as the leader of EXO and eventually left the group we are now searching for the long lost entrepreneur hidden between the 8 of us. Some are fighting over the post, Baekhyun wants to be the leader but the rest of us don't agree and Yixing is just totally neutral. We all thought it would be better if we would get some help about this whole situation and I instantly thought of you.'
You froze with your mug in the air not willing to drink anymore.You basically predicted this a few minutes ago. This is going somewhere and you surely didn't like the direction of it.
'What exactly do you want me to do? Why doesn't your manager deal with this?'
Suho was just staring at you now, his gaze full of emotions you couldn't identify. He wanted out of the group, and now your brother wanted your help with whatever Suho had left behind. His look was saying something, but you couldn't tell what.
'He said we have to go through this together to strengthen the group and some other bullshit. We have to be the one who chose him, or he has to volunteer and all of us have to agree. Since you work' - he looked down triggered, coughed and then corrected himself - 'worked in this area, well, i thought you knew what we have to do.'
'If I said yes, what would it imply?'
Do you really want to work for EXO? You had to think about this. A lot.
After a long pause, you look at your brother with a stone expression. Suho saw that look and silently said 'I...uhm, will leave you to it, i have to do something anyway. I'll just see you guys later.' He stood up and left the kitchen room, closing the door.
You were the first one to speak up, 'Do you really think I know enough to help you?'. You were amazed he could even imagine you had the knowledge to help them. What was he thinking? Or was he even thinking at all?
'You just have to try, we are stuck ever since Suho left. We can't do this leaderless anymore. You can't do more harm.Things are...not as good as you may know. I've been trying my hardest to keep the mood up and Baekhyun had helped me but we can't do this anymore. The dorm is pure chaos and our manager is putting a lot of pressure on us. The comeback is coming soon and we were almost always late for practice and for the recording sessions in the past year. The fights never end. He said we have to figure this out soon or he will add a new member in the group as the leader to clear the situation up. I fucking freaked out. I wanted to come and see if you were doing better and if you could help us since you already worked with something similar.'
'I... i don't know if i can do this right now.' You said. It was the truth. Even though you wanted to help him, he was your brother and you'd do anything for him, you were pretty unstable at the moment. You had to admit this to yourself.
'I know you have a lot on your plate and i love you a lot so I can't come and add more but our manager doesn't let us hire some professional counselor to cope with us, or anyone else regardless. It's our 5th year together and if we don't get it together we might fade away from the industry as the EXO we used to be. I just had to do something. I don't want this' he said, pointing to his grey hair and blue eye contacts, 'to come to an end.'
He talked so fast you weren't sure you understood all of it. You have been so consumed by your own problems that you couldn't even think how hard the past year must have been for your brother. Suho had left EXO last year and you still had no idea why. You two have been friends for so long you didn't really question his motives so you just supported him. Chanyeol on the other hand, had always tried to keep you out of the media, entertainment or other public situations. People who knew who your brother is would always come to check you out for spoilers but the truth is he never told you any of it. You just knew when and where he had concerts, when he had to shoot for reality shows, or other information most people were aware of as well. You had no inside stories or anything because Chanyeol was overprotective and he always told you exactly what you needed to know, nothing more, nothing less.
'So let me get this straight. You want me to what, play some games with you so that you can figure out yourselves who the leader is? What the actual, Chan!' You can were so confused. 'Aren't all of you full grown adults?
Chanyeol started to laugh out loud. Eventually, he stopped laughing and said out loud, 'No, the fuck we are.'
You had no idea how the other guys are, you only met Baekhyun and Yixing before and they seemed nice. Chanyeol didn't allow you get close to the other band members, but since you and Suho had been friends long before they actually debuted he had no say in your relationship. Apparently, the other guys have different personalities in real life and basically you had no idea what you'd get yourself into if you said yes. Even Chanyeol seemed different in real person than in interviews or performances. The persona they had on stage was indeed created by themselves, but that image was not picturing the real selves. You met Baekhyun one time, when you asked Chanyeol to pick you up from the university so that you could have lunch together. You hadn't seen him in weeks at that time and you missed him. He had to do a review on the lyrics he wrote for a new song. He agreed although to meet up, but brought Baekhyun along since they were together when you called. He wasn't as hyped in real life, his jokes were mostly just bad puns but he was a sincere guy. You really liked his company and asked to meet him again, you really wanted to become friends with the boys your brother considered brothers for the past 5 years, yet you never saw him again.
'I can't even imagine how I could help you but I'll have to think about it. I can't promise anything.'
Chanyeol's eyes glowed and he finally smiled at you. 'Thanks sis, I love you lots.' He said, hugging you again. 'I guess I'll go now, we have to practice for the first performance of the comeback.'
You started heading to the door. As he put on his shoes, you knocked on Suho's door to come say goodbye. Chanyeol looked at Suho and tried to whisper only to him 'Please look out for her, I don't know what I'd do if anything like that ever happened to her again.'
'I'll be just fine, try to focus on your problems too.' You said, as he stood up hugging you hard again.
You and Suho looked at him leaving, smiling and waving at him from the doorway. As you shut the door closed, you hit it a little bit too hard and the loud sound hits your ears and your hands start to shiver. Fuck. You can feel it coming and you try to say 'catch me, i'll fall!' but your mind shuts off before you can say the words.

The Kill
Tumblr media
pairing: Reader x Kim Jongin/Kai (OC)
genre: death!kai, supernatural au!
wordcount: 6.2k
warnings: blood, death (slightly but just in case)
-> What happens in a world where supernatural and virtual lives come together?
In a world run by monsters, supernatural and virtual worlds come together. There were monsters out there, and people who hunted them to keep the Earth a safe place. Maybe people was an overstatement. Those who killed were trained to do so ever since they were 5 years old so all humanity they had back when they were children was gone by the time they were sent in the real world as guardians. There were schools, academies, strict boarding schools for those who passed the intelligence tests, which were mostly just playing with your human mind to see if you had it in your system to become a hunter. These academies were everywhere, in each state, city and field there was at least one subsidiary for each kind of hunters.
Each supernatural creature was known by the government, and they all had numbers that made it easy to be recognised by those who were made to murder them. Each hunter had a domain, to say so. Vampire hunters, werewolf hunters, ghost hunters, and so on. There was only one creature that you had on your side and they were the fairies. The good fairies helped you with spells and they were part of your human world as much as humans. Those who were born with good magic inside were recruited as guardians as well, saving humans day and night as they didn't need sleep. Fairies made the hunting quite easier for your people, meaning that you had access to much more supplies than just arms and physical violence. Even though they had magic, it wasn't enough for it to eliminate all other evil creatures within a spell. It was a little bit more complicated than that.
Fairies were here to keep the world in equilibrium as they were doomed to live under the rules of Death, but were considered humans by the rest of the us. Death was in charge of keeping the world as balanced as possible, and he knew each living or dead creature that was walking, flying or swimming on earth. He was feared by all, as much as they feared God. He controlled so much more than that though. His powers knew no limits, and even you, admitted he was to be feared.
The virtual world was something quite different though. Other than hunting, there was one piece of knowledge not everyone was born to have. It was programming. No, not as you know it. The purpose of programming was to follow each supernatural creature's numbers and know when and where they will attack through the waves of the chip, which held the number. The waves of the chip went straight into the brain of those creatures and it was something they were born with as a 'gift' for being born on this planet.
Death, as being the one who knew it all, but he let humans know about the chips at the beginning of time. He put chips in those who were not meant to live on Earth, to keep track of the different species altogether. The people who had programming in their blood were rare but important. The programmers were the most wanted living human beings. They were born with that knowledge and it wasn't something you could learn, like hunting. You either had it or not.
Call it luck or not, you were one of those who had it.
As for this part, this is where it gets creepier. You were doomed to sit in a chair your entire life, searching and following the supernatural creatures from the real world. You were able to go deep enough as to see their memories and future plans, that's why you were on the wanted list as much as they were.
The sad part is, you could only go to sleep and eat. Nothing more, nothing less. And guess what? You also had numbers in your, kind of, blood. On each of your computers, you had a number and a status. You could either be 4LIV3 or D34D.
You were currently D34D. Or so it said.
'W-what?' You muttered to yourself when you saw the screen.
You woke up, ate your breakfast and you were seen by other people. It wasn't possible. Or was it? You tried to think, did you even sleep last night?
The last creature you followed was a vampire, and you announced it as usual. He was planning a mass murder but you caught him in time. Everything went well with the operation.
After that, your only friend, lover and family all combined payed you a visit. Warter was the only one you had, and sometimes he came to the unit to give you a chat about the real world. He was a normal, mortal human being and he really cared for you. After you were discovered, they took you away from your family and you were erased from their memories by the fairies. Only then, they made a mistake.
You didn't really question if they did it on purpose or not. You just took advantage of it. Maybe they didn't knew you had someone else than your family. That's how Warter was able to come and visit you. Your secret place was unknown by the others, even you found it by accident when you wanted to escape for the first time. As you were extremely precious to the government they didn't punish you for that. Or the other times you tried to run away.
Let's just say you weren't really okay with the societies rules, but you were also one of the most intelligent programmers they had. That was a deadly combination, excuse the pun.
You knew it, they knew it. You were powerful and your brain was something else. You weren't okay just sitting at your desk doing all the work they made you do. So that's how you agreed that you wanted to have access to more than just the program. You wanted it all.
Anyhow, Warter gave you nothing more than just usual gossips. Nothing was really going on in the real world. It was perhaps too quiet. After that, you came back to your room and went to sleep. That's it! You really went to sleep.
But then, how were you dead? That's when you knew one thing.
Death was going to pay you a visit.
Death POV
Death had many nicknames, yet the one he liked was Kai. He enjoyed going on Earth from time to time, to mess things up. That was the nickname he used to confuse people. How could he be human when everyone around him gets all this darkness in their blood, in their system? Why were they suddenly feeling sad like they lost something just when he was there? They had no idea it was him. Except the fact that whenever he went down there, God messed things up as well, trying to wake up the humans with hurricanes, extreme storms or some other natural disasters. He tried to make humans more alarmed when they were close to him, so that they were forced to leave. Well, they could try, because Kai was never going to let them leave without having some fun. That, plus he could be anywhere at the same time. Part of his job, let's just leave it like that.
He was bored more now that humans took over a small part of his business and killed the supernatural creatures. He didn't really have much to do, so he enjoyed analysing the humans and their unusual habits. There was one little human who caught his attention though. But she didn't knew he watched every step step she made. Or, since she was mostly in that bloody room, every thought she ever had. Now he had a new task. He knew what he had to do with that brilliant mind she had. Yet there was something staying in the way. He couldn't really kill her, and that was pissing him off. Everything he tried, didn't work on her. So he had to do this the dirty way.
The thought made you shiver, slowly but surely you felt your blood turning into ice. You kept staring at the screen, waiting for it to say otherwise, to change or say it's just an error. The clock changed it's seconds, going from 1 to 10, then 59, the minutes following their path as well. You waited like that, staring at the screen in the darkness of your room, for an entire hour. Yet, even after all that time, the small box still showed D34D.
It's not like the thought scared you. Besides Warter, you had no one else to live for and you always thought that living without people was just a waste of time. Why would you be alive if you had no one to love, cherish happiness or make memories with? Sadly, you were in the position where people weren't present in your daily schedule, but it's not like you had people to get back to either.
It wasn't like you were dead, but were you really alive even before this happened?
You decided that the best choice was to get up from that chair eventually. As you stood up, looking around the room with a lost phase, you had no idea what to do now. There was one thing you could do to check for sure if your computer was right. The principal programmator has his computer in the basement, as he needed much more space to work his tasks, which were quite higher than your usual ones. He mostly deals with problems in higher ranks, like mass murder a nest or stop a certain thing seeks before it actually happened. His skills did beat your own, but he was one of the few who were able to surpass you.
That's how you had the idea. You must go and check his computer, the Corprex, to see if it wasn't just an error.
The last thing you wanted was have a meeting with him. Anyway, it's been hours now and he didn't show up. How'd you know he was coming for you? Well, programmators were kind of his favourites people and since there were just so few of you, he liked to collect your souls himself. Why Death and not God? That's simple. Because what you were doing wasn't actually quite ethical. Right? Going through someone's mind to see where they are and where will they attack was kind of...bad? The fact that you did do it for the right cause didn't make a difference when it came to this law.
You go towards the huge, metal door and you wait for the small green screen in the middle of it to verify your identity so that you can leave.
'Fuck' you stare at the screen that's turned red, denying you the right to leave the room. You just shrug and go back to the computer.
'I guess we'll have to do this the old way' you think to yourself as you quickly write a code to open the door, hacking its mechanisms. You thanked God that you had access to much more than the program, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to do that. Just how the rest of the people in the unit can't.
Checking the instructions again, you count in your head to 3 before you press 'initiate command'. Waiting, you see the screen turning from red, to green again and after a few seconds the door opened.
Silently you pop out of the room into the hallway, carefully to close the door just enough so that you can come back in after you finish the task. As you start walking in the small hall, the fear you felt just a few hours ago has its grand comeback. You can hear your own heartbeat in your ears. With every breath that exists your body it makes it hard for you to inhale another one. You end up at the end of the hallway without interruptions, but you have another terrible idea. You turn around to check your back, and you see one of the other programmators exiting his own room. In the instant he sees you he places his finger at his mouth, signaling you to keep quiet. He silently walks in your direction, still without speaking.
'Sehun, what's going on?' You whisper to him, not handling the dead silence anymore.
His tall figure is covering your own self from anyone that may next exit their room, as you can feel the frozen wall on your back, through your poorly clothed outfit. To your left is the entry on the basement but the only way out is in the opposite direction from where you're standing.
'Shh' he whispers, pulling you by the elbow on the stairs that lead downstairs. He tightens his grip until you reach the Programmator's office.
As you enter, the bright light almost blinds you, forcing your eyes to close. There are screens on the entire wall in front of you, as well as several computers to your left, and to your right there are old spell books that he uses to cooperate with the Fairies.
'What the hell is wrong with you?' He starts to shout at you, as he noticed that no one else was down here but the two of you. He angrily runs his hand through his black hair, making a mess out of it. 'You know we could've been in trouble if they caught us!'
'Well I don't know about you but I surely think that you're the one who should give me an explanation.' You take your elbow from his grip, hitting him in the chest. 'Why did you leave your room?' You eye him up and down, looking at his black outfit. He was onto something, he never dressed up in black before.
'Me?! We both left so let's just cut the crap. Are you D34D as well?' Your eyes widened. He was dead too?
'Yes! I came here to check! But how did you manage to leave your room? I'm the only one who can do that!' You started to think that if he was truly dead, he couldn't have left his room. And only you could leave the way you just did.
'What? I just did it the normal way. You couldn't even leave?'
'No!' Exasperated, you go the The Computer to start your digging, and he just follows your lead. You start typing fast, searching for the right folder but you couldn't find it. Eventually, Sehun pointed on the screen.
You open the folder and you see the data base there, with each member and it's status. You scroll down to your name but Sehun stops you when you reach his own.
'Fuck yes, I knew it was just an error. Well thanks then, good luck!' He says, patting your shoulder. You turn around to smile at him, but he already started his way back upstairs.
You sigh. Programmators were individualists, that you knew. But he didn't even wait for you to check your status, at least out of curiosity. You stop all these thoughts, focusing on finding your name. Eventually, after quite some scrolling, you see it standing there. The status. And it still said D34D.
There's a shock spreading through your body now, and your mind stops all the questions from forming. Without thinking, you get up and leave the room. You find comfort into finally being surrounded by darkness, and you become entirely numb by the time you reach the first floor. As you enter your dark room closing the door behind, you notice a shadow standing at your computer. There's an empty chicken bucket on your desk, some sweets thrown all over your room, a pink shirt on your bed and someone's using your computer.
As you cough, he turns around, and in an instant the room is fully illuminated, something that couldn't possibly happen since the lights were just dim all the time. Yet you didn't really care anymore, as Death was going to pay you a visit, nothing truly mattered. Not even this handsome man standing in from of you.
Wait.
'Finally love, I've been waiting for you for ages!' He shows you a smirk.
You can't believe your eyes. He was The Death? The one, most powerful and feared Death? The one whose powers competed with God's? His dark toned skin is shining from the light and you notice he had brown eyes and hair. He looked inhumanly good. He even had a freaking six pack! Yes, he was half naked in front of you.
You just stood there without moving with your mouth wide opened ever since you entered your room.
He came next to you, flipping his fingers in front of your eyes, making you blink.
'Oh please, you can't possible be more dead!'
'How? How did Sehun see me then?'
'I was bored. I needed entertainment. It was fun seeing you hack the doors mechanisms. You really were that eager to not be dead.' He bowed in front of you.
You went silent. You couldn't comprehend what was happening. Why were you dead? How did that happen? Yes you did do some illegal things on the internet but you were bored and lonely. Tears started to fall from your eyes, but this time it wasn't fear what made your heart beat faster. It was hopelessness.
He came closer to you, and wiped your tears away from your wet cheeks with his thumb.
'Don't worry love, I promise this is going to be fun. Better than standing here until you if you get old.' He just stood there, still smiling.
'Is going to be fun?' You stared at him like he was insane which probably was indeed true. He was Death after all.
He came closer and closer until you had to look up at him.
All of a sudden his facial expression changed and in that instant you felt he was Death. You felt it with all your senses, in your soul and mind. They were all telling you to run away.He was looking in your eyes and you felt like dying just from his stare. Except, you were dead anyway.
Right?
He flicked his fingers again and in the next second you were somewhere else.
Everything was black. In that instant, everything was as dark as nothingness.
You thought you were numb but you weren't. You were scared. You felt so scared that hot tears started to fall down your cheeks. Everything you tried your hardest not to feel, it all started to come back at you. Being scared was just one of them. Besides that, you were petrified. Where were you going? Why did he take you with him? From what you knew this kind of stuff didn't usually happen. He just took your soul and the body was left on Earth. You weren't suppose to have a body anymore. But you did. You felt it. You weren't just as lost soul. You were still you. That's why it was all so bad. Because you were still you. You felt the energy of Death with every fibre of you body and mind. That's why all these negative feelings were coming at you. It felt like you died over and over again just by being with him.
Where were you?
After the darkness dissapeared, you ended up somewhere words couldn't describe. It felt like you were in a dream, you know that feeling of vivid dream that peole rarely have, when you know you're dreamig but you can't wake up. That's how it felt. Except you weren't asleep, you were dead.
It was a dark room, with red lights on the walls and black curtains covering the windows. You took you first breath in that room and it was like you inhaled something dead. Something that was dead for a long time. After that you look around youself and you notice the room is all black, except for the red lights on the walls. Black desk, black bed, black door, black everything. Even the walls were black.
Death, was now walking towards the door.
When he opened it, your heart beat stopped. It was a hallway made of glass. He exits the room and you approach the closest glass wall outside of his dark room, noticing it was all glass. Everything up here was made of glass. You didn't find the strenght to look down, but looking in front of you was enough.
You were somewhere up, as you could see the streets lights that were on Earth, more to say, on a side of a Earth. It felt like you looked at a painted landscape , except you could only see a part of it. You weren't close enough to see the houses or the civilens, but you could see what looked like an entire city. The lights were just some dots but you could notice where the big streets were. It looked like a city you knew, but couldn't remember from where.
It hit you then. It was the city you were born in.
„What are you doing standing there? Come here kitty and don't make me say it again." Death's voice was so loud the glass started to tramble under you feet. The tone he used now was different, and it make you even more afraid, yet you followed the path he walked on.
When you walked on the glass in the hallway, you saw the place was actually full of rooms. Glass rooms. No one was in any of them, but as you walked closer to them and looked to your sides you noticed some sort of smoke in each of them. All of a sudden you heared a scream. You froze in place as the thing you thought was smoke, was actually someone. Someone's soul. And it was screaming at you through the glass wall. You couldn't help it but run. After a while, each and every other soul in that place you were in, started to scream. High pitch screaming was hurting your ears. It was so loud your ears started to bleed but you didn't have a choice. You had to follow Death through the glass pathaway. Each time you were next to a room full of souls, they started to scream, making it harder for you to follow the man.
You walked like that for what it felt like hours, the blood on your neck and shoulders was now dry.
„Stop sobbing you're annoying me." Death spoke as he walked next to you. „And refer to me as Kai, i don't like being called that in my home."
You tried yor hardest to stop the sounds out of you mouth, but more tears started to fall as you stopped. You felt sick from your stomack, as if you are about to throw up at any time from now on.
You looked up at him, just to see that the handsome man down on Earth was here an actual monster. His eyes were black instead of brown, and everything that you thought was appealing was now making you fear him. He seemed powerful. The image of him eating chicken, wearing a pink shirt and going on the computer seemed like a stupid dream.
This was death. Imposing. Fearful. Controling.
Someone who knew everything about the universe and to whom people were just disposable toys.
Who saw human's souls on a daily basis.
Who lived with tormented souls in his own home.
Who had rooms full of programmators souls.
Your kind's souls.
Whose mind was inimaginable, full of knowledge. Infinite knowledge.
Whose mind was an entity of its own.
You looked at him and you asked yourself once again why did he bring you here. Why did he kill you.
Why why why why.
Death POV
He walked next to her on the hallway. He felt her gaze on him, but it was no longer admiring. She was beggining to form a new opinion of him, vanishing the first imperssion she had.
He knew this was deadly to her, just walking next to him, but she was going to be okay. He didn't expect the souls to know, but he should've prepare for that. It was too late to teleport her as she was being already affected by them. He wanted to heal her but he couldn't.
H e a l.
Death wanted to heal a human. A woman that he took in his home.
He let her see each side of him he had to offer, both the Earth him and the After Life him, and he knew she was extremely afraid right now. Her energies were everywhere in the house as she was the only one actually here.
But she had to know who he was. She had to acknowledge him sooner or later, but it better be sooner as she wasn't going to leave this place. Not now, not ever. He took her here and he wasn't going to let her leave.
-
They entered a room,a white office. He looked at her when she was staring at the walls, as the room felt like a floating white cube in the atmosphere, and he noticed just how beautiful she was. He lefted his hand to touch her cheek but on of his helping assistants entered the observatory.
„Boss, another one had arrived" She was talking about a soul. An old man had died today, and even though he has been a good man in his old days, he could do nothing to erase the fact that he killed a man in his youth. He knew he had to keep the old man's soul here, not being able to let him go to God's purity section.
Death teleported himself into the old man's room. His soul was now white, as his fate wasn't decided yet. When he appeared in the room, all he did was stare at the man's soul to give him some sort of peaceful phase, even though Death already knew everything. He went closer to the white being, who looked nothing like the old man he used to be, and touched his forehead with his hand, sending him into his cell.
Death sighed as the action happened. He didn't want to go thorugh this over and over again. Offering the souls a place to actually go on for eternity, somewhere they could still see the home they once had. But he was the only one who knew who the soul belonged to, he was the one who had contact with them. He knew everything. He could tell the entire history of a person in an instant.
When it came to supernatural creatures, things were actually more complicated. But at least he didn't had to kill them anymore. Since they had no soul, he just had to collect the body's councciesce. Just in case some stupid human was thinking about ressurecting one of them. It had happened before and it could happen again. That's when things got complicated. He had to retreieve the equilibruim of the planet and if one got back, another one had to die. That was just annoying and he hated to be annoyed.
There was one thing Death didn't knew though. He used to eliminate in a flick those who annoyed him.
Unless it was Y/N who did it.
Y/N POV
Where did he left? You were here with this strange looking woman. She had black long hair, thightly put in a pony tail. She was dressed in black from head to toe, except for her skin that was white. Extremely white.
„So" she said looking at you up and down your body „Who the fuck are you?" She said closing her arms in front of her and letting her side rest on the opened door.
„I...I'm Y/N" You said without thinking.
Too many things were happening and your brain stopped processing everything. You had no idea who this woman was or if it was a good idea to just give her your name or not.
„Well then, look at that. You're shy" she started to laugh at you.
„The hell she is. " It was Kai, who just entered the room. He teleported again and he scared you. You just blinked and he was once again standing next to you in the white room. You noticed then that you hadn't move a centimeter, from when he left to when he got back. Even though he was gone for just a couple of seconds. „Go away now" he said teleporting the woman somewhere else before she got the chance to speak again and closing the huge doors.
„How is this fun?" You turned to him, regaining some sort of courage. Since you were dead, you were going to go high way with it. You can't die twice, right?
„Aren't you a rusty soul." Kai said looking at you smiling. „Have patience love, i have prepared something fun for us to do".
Just then you heared a high pitch sound in your ears and you fell to the floor. You tried to put your hands to your ears to stop the sound but you were the only one able to hear it, as Kai seemed to act normal like nothing was wrong. Everything was wrong. You where God knows where with someone as powerful as him, you were most likely going to go deaf, and you were dead but you still had your human body. The confusion and fear paired up and that's when your brain shut down.
--
You woke up after what feelt like hours. You had no idea what time it was and you were all alone in the red room, covered in blankets. It was too hot so you just threw them away from your hot body, leaving the cold air chilling your bones.
You ran a hand through your hair, trying to make it look acceptable, but as you did so you noticed something was different. The pain wasn't there anymore. The blood had vanished and you asked yourself if he washed you. That made you put up a dissgusted face on, thinking about his dirty hands on you. Or maybe... they weren't so dirty after all? You were here, in his bed, not in a cage with other souls. Who may or may not eat you entirely.
The questions started to ramble in your head once again, and you tried you hardest to stop them. You had to find him and you had to get answers. You got up and entered the hallway, not scared of the height anymore. It was day apparently, and the light was almost blinding you, but it seemed angelic. You realisde right there that you really were out of your world, out of your comfort. The comfort that was making you mad, the life that you wanted to to run away from so many times, it was all gone. You woke up and you weren't forced to go thrugh the routine over and over again until the end of your days. You woke up and you didn't have to wash, eat, program the entire day, for the rest of your life.
The computer wasn't there next to you anymore. Yesterday seemed like years ago. Just 24 hours ago you were in the programmator's room hacking with Sehun, trying to find out if you were dead, only to discover that you truly were. You found yourself walking on the hallway whitout the souls screaming like they did yesterday. Was this supposed to be a bad sign?
As you looked at the rooms, which you considered cages, you noticed the souls were still there, all of them, except they were now just staring at you. You felt their gaze on you, strong enough to see in your soul. You started to run again, even without the screaming they were still freaking you out. Imagine a room full of sharks staring at you, without eating you. Yeah, that's how you felt.
There was only one thing for you to do. Find Kai and demand answers.
Death POV
He looked at her how she collapsed on the floor in front of him, just when he wanted to give her good news. But he couldn't help himself so he slowly fell to his knees and whispered her name. She wasn't dying, he felt it, but she wasn't that far away either.
He sighed as he took her in his arms, put her head on his shoulder and teleported in his room.
The red room was too cold for her so her tried to warm her up. He put her in his bed, covering her with 3 blankets and eventually, he knew he had to do it. He had to heal her. He put his hands on her arm, slowly but surely feeling her body warming up. She was sleeping now, he felt that her breathing was calmer. Her cheeks were turning red and he swore he never saw something more beautiful.
He then left her sleeping and went to solve the one thing that stood between the two of them. God.
Y/N POV
As you wandered the corridors looking at the rooms, you saw a door that seemed different. Even more out of this world, if that was possible. It was dark brown, like those in the renaissance period, engraved with some weird pentagrams and next to it there was a small facial recognition system, somehow related to the one you had in your room. You went closer to the mysterious door, trying to analyze the weird symbols that were encrypted on the door. They were familiar though, it felt like you already saw them somwhere else. You really wanted to touch the symbols but you knew it wasn't a good idea. It had to be somehow protected by the system. So you had to do what you were born to do. Program. It wasn't like the one back home, this one was made to detect just the supernatural creatures. That meant it was going to be easier for you .-
After you fought a little with the mechanism, you managed to open it. Well, this was going to be a secret kept from the other creatures in here because it's not like Kai didn't already knew what you were doing. It wasn't like it mattered either. You wanted him to find you anyway.
You went closer to the now crooked opened door, only to have an angry Kai coming out of it. You were being caught.
„What are you doing here?" He said looking at you with black eyes. His eyes seemed to eat you alive. Or dead, as it was in this case.
„I-I-I was" you studdered as his look was creeping you out and words didn't really make sense right now.
„Were you spying on me human?" His ferm body was now pressing you into the wall, your face was just a few millimeters away from his.
„No." Looking in his eyes you saw his mood switch turned on, his eyes were back to normal. To your normal. „I was actually searching for you." You tried you luck now that he seemed reasonable. As much as he could as he could be reasonable. You were now pinned to the wall and you had no way to escape his protected guard, his arms were to each side of your waist, palms on the wall and face only a breath away.
„Hm, interesting." He said looking at your neck.
„Did you heal me? I'm not hurt anymore." He was clearly devouring you with his eyes only, and you felt naked. So damn naked.
That and you were pinned to the wall.
He looked at you and tilted his head, his sudden move made a part of his hair cover his eyes. Without thinking you ran your right hand through his hair, making it look good again. He had indeed a beauiful face, without those black eyes he sometimes put on. His face had sharp features you found yourself lost in. His lips were swollen and his jaw was so sharp you could cut yourself just by looking at it for too long. After you realised what you just did, he did too. He caught your wrist as you tried to lower it down again and whispered softly to you, but those words were now repeating in your head.
„Do it again and i might kiss you."
You froze when he said that.
You wanted to kiss him too.
And so you did.
Death POV
There was only one thing she didn't knew.
She wasn't really dead.
All he did was alter her memories. She was actually alive yet here she was standing in the pits of hell next to the men she just fell for.
One part life, one part death.

Apocalypse
Tumblr media
pairing: Kiera (OC) x Sehun
genre: vampire!sehun, supernatural
wordcount: 2.2 k (one shot)
warnings: blood, death (slightly but just in case)
-> Her name was Kiera and she was a fierce warrior. She was used to kill vampires and she did it for fun. That, and to save humanity. Take it however it works for you.
Her name was Kiera and she was a fierce warrior. She was used to kill vampires and she did it for fun. That, and to save humanity. Take it however it works for you.
It was the middle of the day and her people were safe, for now, so she decided to stay out in the sun and enjoy herself a little until the darkness came again. She didn't need to sleep or to eat, her sole destiny was to protect humans.
Immortality made her body like stone and she couldn't feel pain or emotions. She was meant to protect the people of Earth and she loved it, as much as someone who couldn't feel anything could love.
She was named the warrior of the city Havenlost, when she was born. Even though that happened a long time ago. On another planet. She did a great job, killing more vampires as time passed. She killed too many vampires in a really short time and now that there were too less of them, they were all scared of her power and of her mind. Vampires feared her more than they feared starving to death. In their eyes, she was death. Her knowledge about mortals made her invincible, and vampires were just mortals with a little bit more power and a little less brain. Or so she thought at the moment.
'So, what's up with that crazy vampire who kept screaming <He's coming! He's coming! Save us all or just kill us! I've heared him talking about them! They'll take over our planet soon! Your planet!>' Kiera's best friend said quoting the vampire, with a horrified expression on her face, trying to recreate last nights scenario.
She was a human named Blossom, but regardless her name she was Kiera's partner during hard times, like last night, when they had to take out nests. You may wonder why there were nests in Kiera's city. Simple. She was sometimes bored, so she let the vampires live freely for one night or too before she would catch them. Wouldn't it be boring for a guardian to live without fulfilling her purpose?
Blossom's pink hair contrasted Kiera's hair, which was as black as the bottom of the ocean. She had blue eyes which again, were the opposite of Kiera's dark brown eyes. Everything about the two of them looked contradictory yet they were best friends ever since Kiera came to Earth from her planet.
The vampires multipled a lot now that Kiera killed almost all of them in the recent past. The immortal trained Blossom in her early years and now she was pretty good with a sword and a gun in her hands. Even a small knife was enough to make vampires run away from her. Lets just say it never missed it's target.
'I have no clue. It must be some sort of bullshit he said to save himself. Don't believe anything those fuckers say when they're on the edge of dying.' Kiera said, as she shook her head in disgust. 'Why would you even remember that crap? You can use your memory for such good things and you just wasted it with those empty words.'
'But still, he said it with such a terrified expression I almost believed him. Do you perhaps know what he was talking about?' Blossom said, looking with her big blue eyes at her best friend.
'I have no clue, but even if anything of what he said was true we'll have to wait and see. I don't believe in rumors.'
'Aren't you sick of just standing here? I need some action, can't it be night already?' Blossom said, her hunger for killing made her so hyped during the day she even forgot to sleep if Kiera didn't constantly reminded her of her human nature.
'Bloss, just shut up and go to sleep or I'll take you to your mother.'
'Fine' Blossom sighed as she had nothing better to do. She closed her eyes and fell asleep instantly, last night was a full night and she really needed some rest.
'Hey! Over here, assbutt' Kiera said jumping from the high roof in front of the vampire who just fed of a human and ran away. She followed him from above but she was getting bored.
It was night and it was time for hunting, but Kiera had no vampire action until it was merely 1 am. She was so excited when she saw this poor vampire standing there in front of her, all lost, that she decided to have some fun before killing him.
'So, how was that human you just killed? Was her blood sweet, salty or did it make you want to throw up?' Kiera was leaning against the building with a boring look on her face.
Just a street lamp illuminated the area, it was wet and dirty, most likely just some homeless people were around here at this hour looking at the two of them from the shadows.
The vampire licked his lips as there was still blood around them, his sharped front teeth shining in the night.
'How about I taste yours and then I'll tell? I bet yours is better' He showed her an evil smirk and he tilted his head.
His brunette hair made him look so young but his long posture and face revealed his real age, which was somewhere around 20's. He wore a goth, black outfit and his leather jacket completed the bad-vampire-move-away-from-me image. She was seriously amused by this young vampire but boy, wasn't he hot.
'Woah slow down pretty boy. I already got my  hickeys from my boyfriend I don't like being marked by so many men'
'Come on' The tall vampire said, 'Don't be like that, I'll be quick' he said coming closer to the warrior and placing his arms on each side of her head, with his eyes closed as if he wanted to kiss her.
She pulled her knife from her back pocket and cut him a little on the cheek before he got the chance to step back.
'I can be quick as well but I'm bored so I thought I could use you a little. Tell me now' she said as she quickly moved her body to put him at the wall, with her elbow strongly pressing his Adam's apple and her knee between the vampires legs 'Is there some sort of strange creature coming on earth? What do you know?'
'Don't you at least want to know my name before interrogating me to death?' He hardly spoke, with his eyes still closed.
'Oh my god you're a narcissist one, fine then,  tell me your fucking name quick and start talking right after'
'Woahh, at least let me move my head or I'll make some whale noises otherwise' Kiera lighted up her hold on him 'Thanks. Well my human name was Sehun but now they all call me Thunder. You know, because of my hair.' He opened his eyes searching Kiera's face for a recognition response but she honestly couldn't care less. 'Great. Now. I've heared rumors, you know, that there's going to be some sort of meeting down here on earth for I don't know what greater species. They're not like us. Like you and me. They're formed of light and it's said they may even be angels but who believes that sort of crap? I'd rather think it's just some rays of sunshine talking to each other. That's all I know. For real.'
Kiera was shocked to see and sense that the young boy wasn't lying as she could feel if vampires lied to her. What was going on and why did no one told her about this? She constantly communicated with the people from her own planet but this right here was at another level. She had to know and she had to know everything soon.
'Okay then. Thanks for the info' Kiera said, casually slicing the boy's throath. His lifeless body fell to the ground and she shook her head in disregard. Underground people and their rumors. Maybe it was all bullshit, it's not like she trusted their rumors anyway. She decided to stop thinking about it until there was a sign of something weird going on.
Again in the same night, she was following some vampire who was now using his speed to travel fast. This was fun because she could run faster than him but she loved the chase. She caught him looking behind and she sped up jumping on his back, the action making him fall hard on the cold ground.
When she turned him around to count him as eliminated in her mind, she did this to know which vampire she killed from which nest because they usually stayed together so she had to know who would come 'after her', she froze.
What?
'I, I thought I killed you?' Kiera's face was now pale and her eyes were empty.
'Princess, you couldn't kill me forever even if you'd try a thousand times'
'But... How?' Kiera's voice was shaking. She didn't face anything like this ever in her own existence. And that was a very long time.
'Let's just say I'm something else' He was able to get up as Kiera was still frozen, staying on the ground on her knees.
He used his palms to clean himself up from the dirt.
'Come on now, get up. I've been searching for you ever since you left me for dead on that street a few minutes ago. We have things to do.'  He helped Kiera get up and put his arm around her shoulders, so that they look like a simple couple.
'Speak up, don't think I'm going anywhere with you' Kiera took his arm off her and looked at him with her fierce full stare, stopping in the middle of the road they were just walking on. She had enough of his bullshit and she had to know why he didn't die.
'Look Snow White, long story short angels are coming here tonight and we have to fight them together. Truth be told, they're here to take over and there won't be anyone else left if we don't stop them. Tonight.' So earlier when she asked about this he lied to her? How was that even possible?
'Tonight?' Kiera looked at the boy in front of her with disbelief. She didn't buy anything this boy had to sell.
'Yes tonight. Now come, we must train hard to take them down. I'll put of use all vampire nests around this area.' He started walking but Kiera's question was still unanswered.
'I'm not coming' She shouted behind him and in a blink he was in front of her again.
'You can't be serious' His eyes were changing into something different and she noticed she had never seen eyes like his before. Earlier tonight they were all red, how could've this happen? Instead of the pure bloodshot eyes that vampires usually had, and even he had them red when she first killed him, now they were red and yellow and their combination was something like blood and sun, both combined in a weird shape. She could swear they looked like a red moon. It was like watching an eclipse looking in his eyes.
'What... what are you?'
'You can't be for real! Fucking women. A war is coming and she asks what am I, like this is some sort of <get to know me> reality crap.'
'You either tell me or not. I'm not coming otherwise.' She didn't want to admit but he frightened her.
Angels were one thing, she expected them to exist somewhere in this universe, maybe on their own planet or something, but him? She didn't hear about creatures with two colored eyes. Every pure creature had a signature eye color and it was an anomaly to have two eye colors. If there were created unpure creatures, the monsters were killed even before they had the chance to be born so no one knew anything about them. Everyone expects them to just... not exist.
'I'm an anomaly, what you're seeing in my eyes is indeed true. Not from before I was born, regardless the myths. I accidentally ended up becoming a vampire a few years ago. It was definitely not by choice, as I was forced by the circumstances to keep myself hidden. I'm a hybrid, I'm a vampire but I'm also' he covered her eyes with his hand but she could still see it, the light was hurting her eyes for what it seemed like forever, yet all of it passed in a brief second 'An angel. My parents are coming to take me back. Maybe just to kill me. I don't know which option is valid but I know one thing. I need you.' He looked at Kiera with a broken figure, his eyes were expressing both sadness and hope.
Kiera realized that something inside of her was different, it had all changed when he looked in her eyes.
She could feel. She felt hope getting roots inside of her, she was hoping that they will be able to stop the angels, and happiness, as she was infinitely happy that she was able to feel emotions after an eternity of emptiness.
So they started walking towards what could either be the end of the Earth, or a begging of a better life.
