Flower Of Autumn (NCT JAEHYUN) ✔✔

22| Halloween[3]...

"Well done Hyunjin!" I compliment him as he immediately begins to pretend to be a zombie and rushes towards me.

He wraps his arms around me and places his forehead over my shoulder.

"Akinaaaaaa! All the best Akinaaaaa! I hope you go through that hell in a faster and easier way than us!" He says this in his not so normal heavy voice because he tried to speak like a zombie and it turned out to be so hilarious that everyone including him and I laugh our hearts out.

I whack his hands slightly and he immediately lifts his head while laughing and that's when I realized we were standing closer than usual. Looked like he figured it out too and immediately took a step back, while pretending to laugh.

"Ok! Well tried team 1, it's time for team 2 to move in. " the host then says while indicating us to go in.

I quickly gather my team around to build a strategy because even though I have no idea what's waiting for us inside, it would be better to be prepared.

"Ok guys! We have no idea! What's there for us inside but as far as I assume they are sending us in a team that means we have to work as a team. I have no idea what's gonna happen in there but let's keep a code word for an emergency. If any of us fall into trouble we scream the code word so that the team comes to the rescue. Is that fine with everyone?" I instruct everyone who was gathered around me.

"Aye Aye Noona!" Haechan screams while taking a salute position.

"What's the code word though?" Mark then questions that leaves all of us in a dilemma.

Yeah! What would be the code word?

"Love shot?" Jaehyun suddenly proposes.

"Love sho--" I was still trynna figure out why love shot? When I hear that song play in the background. Ok, that! was a smart move.

"Ok! Love Shot it is!" Mark exclaims after which all of us begin to enter the Horror House.

👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽

The room was dark, a dim red light was lit at a distance that did not help much with the visibility, it was only making it easier to spot the number of people in our group didn't help to recognize each and every member with us. All of us were stuck with one another, tightly gripping onto our clothes.

"Ahh! LOVE SHOT, LOVE SHOT, LOVE SHOT!!!!"

We heard someone scream, it was supposed to be serious but then the code word made it seem so funny! That everyone began to laugh.

"Alright! Everyone yell out your names, so we'll have an idea whom to save. JAEHYUN!" Jaehyun suggests after which he takes his name first.

"Haechan"
"Akina"
"Mark"
It kept on going until we realized Jung woo had not mentioned himself yet!

"Jung woo?" Jaehyun then asks for which we hear "LLOOVVEE SSHHOOTT!!"

Everyone tries to hide their laughs after which we proceed towards the area from where we heard Jung woo yell.

We could see a cage-like figure, which had blended with a background that I assumed to be black but the dim red light made it differentiable.

All of us were trying to find the button for letting the cage open.

"Yo! Yo! Hyung! I found it." Mark who was searching for the button at the bottom yells.

After Jung woo being finally released we begin to proceed. We knew that according to the rules, even if one member would come out it would be considered a win but we as a team didn't want to take chances.

I see three glowing boxes kept in front of us. One had a torch, the other had a sheet of paper and the last one was a stick?

The computerized audio then asks us to pick one of these.

"Let's take the torch? It's too dark in here!" I suggest.

"No, I think we should take the stick, we can like beat up any ghost that comes to capture or scare us." Mark then suggests.

"I think, Noona is right. Let's take the torch because stick will benefit one of them but the torch will help al of us." Haechan says in my support.

"Take the sheet of paper." Jaehyun out of the blue suggests.

"How will a sheet of paper help?" I ask looking at him when he suddenly gives me a glare that makes me rethink my question.

"If I'm not wrong, this sheet of paper is supposedly a map." He tells after a min of gap.

"But, I can't see any weird drawings on it?" Mark asks him.

"Neither can I but take it!" He says. If he can't see those weird route markings on that paper why is he pressurizing on picking that up?

"Torch!" I stress.
"Map" he stresses.

I am fed up with the way he's been acting, he was ok a few mins ago and suddenly he is acting all bossy!

Out of annoyance, without further discussion, I pick up the map. The lights went off right away. It was an instantaneous action that left all of us blinded for a min or two.

"Ohhh! Hyung, you were right!!!" Mark suddenly exclaims while looking at the piece of paper in my hand. I instantly follow his gaze. How is it possible? This paper was blank a few minutes ago but now it is glowing.

It was glowing in a certain pattern.

"That's what I thought! It had the markings written through a glowing ink pen, That's the reason it is visible in the dark and not in the light." Jaehyun explains while definitely looking at me because I feel like someone is glaring at me and as of now only he has a reason to do so.

"Ok! Let's  get this over with!" Jung woo says while letting out a huge sigh.

Haechan snatches the piece of paper from my hand and begins to guide us through our ways.

We encounter a lot of people disguised as ghosts, it was horrifying and hilarious at times. We were pretty good at it! I still wonder why Hyunjin made it sound so terrible. Could it possible that they didn't choose the map??

"The other symbols are ok but what does this flower symbol mean Hyung?" Haechan who was leading our way asks Jaehyun who was standing beside me.

Curiously even I look at him coz he's being pretty good right now. Jaehyun approaches Haechan and takes the map as he begins to take a look at it.

Ughh! I am so tired since morning I have been running around. While the two boys discuss over the map, I lean on to the wall beside me.

"Ok! So that means the flower symbol is somewhere......here--" Jaehyun abruptly stops while pointing towards me.

"Huh!? Her---" I suddenly feel something slithering over my ankle, I couldn't really see it. It felt as if it was a snake or some living being, but then I realized it had leaves over it and it was pricking me.

"Oh! Shit!!" I yelled after I realized I just stepped on a massive trap.

Mark immediately catches hold of my hand while Jung woo and Haechan try to free my feet. It was dark and they weren't able to see things but I can say they tried their best to free me which practically didn't work.

Slowly I felt a pull, it was as if there was a door behind me opening and I was being pulled towards it.

"Guys! Just leave it and get going!" I yell but they continue to free me from that trap.

"Moveee!" Jaehyun who was just spectating things from afar screams. All of us immediately look up to him, when in no time he had pushed away everyone and was standing right in front of me. His hands wrapped around my shoulders and in response to that my face bumped into his chest.
