(Double update who dis 🤠)

Y/n's POV

It was currently 7:40 in the evening and I was walking toward a snack store to buy some food because I was starving and the others were too lazy to cook for me.

A soft sigh left my lips are I tilted my head upwards admiring the sky which was a mix of colours as if it were a canvas and the artist was trying new combinations. Adding to the experience, soft cool winds blew against my warm body. It felt amazing.

Small stars had already began to appear as the skies turned darker studding the now dull blue sky. A small smile spread on my lips watching the stars appear one by one lighting the night up.

I looked forward and this time I was in front of the snack store luckily. I opened the door and greeted the cashier with a small bow.

Holding the blue basket in my hand, I went on dumping snacks and beverages and then proceeding to pay. I walked out impatiently because all I wanted to do was to get home snuggle in my blankets and eat while watching television.

My right hand was stuffed into the pocket of my coat which had a hand warmer which Beomgyu gave me (bless him) before I left. It was starting to get real cold even though it was only September.

I had reached a really busy street which seemed empty today for some reason making an uneasy feeling settle in my stomach. I took a deep breath and continued to walk.

That is until I heard a loud crunch behind me.

I stopped dead in my tracks feeling my heart rate increasing. My grip on the plastic bags tightened feeling sweat forming on my palm.

I swiftly turned around so as to catch whoever was behind off guard. But turns out there was no one.

Not trusting my eyes, I began to brisk walk the plastic bag in my hand swinging wildly because of my speed.

But that was until I felt a hand on my shoulder.

I bit my lip and closed my eyes breathing a small prayer of the person being someone i knew.

Hesitantly, I turned around to see a male in a black hoodie with his hood up hiding his face. I gulped. Even though my eyes were stuck to his face I managed to notice a design inked into his skin

Which so happened to be the exact same one I was telling Soobin about earlier that I had seen in the hospital.

I peeled his hand off my shoulder and sprinted away but I knew it would be no use because one, I'm unfit as heck. And two, the other guy was catching up.

And sure enough he was now standing in front of me blocking my path.

"What do you want you bastard?" I asked out of breath.

He didn't answer but maintained a firm grip on my forearm which was starting to hurt.

I tried to shake his arm off but it was almost as if he had glued his hand to mine.

I lifted my leg and stomped on his foot real bad making him loosen his grip on my hand. And I took this opportunity to run even with my burning foot.

My heart pounded within my chest as I ran like never before. But as I ran, a question popped into my head.

Why am I running?

All my life I've been running away from my problems, my dad and my past. Maybe I was a coward back then or maybe I just wanted to have a normal life like any other human.

But now, things have changed.

I have a family. They didn't beat me up trying me make me someone I wasn't. They didn't even expect anything from me. And even though I've always brought them trouble, they still continue to love me.

This is why I'm running now.

Not because I'm afraid.

But because I would never leave my family

No matter what.

I will keep fighting.

For their sake.

With newfound motivation, the speed I was running at increased by two times. Ignoring the pounding in my heart telling me to stop as I heaved in loads and loads of oxygen through my mouth. My eyes sparkled in the golden light emitting from the mansion that came into view,

My home

I banged open the door just to find five worried and startled faces looking at me from the couch.

"This place is not safe anymore." Taehyun said seriously with my legs in his lap while my head was on Soobin's thigh. I was really exhausted from running for long that I almost collapsed which explains why I was lying here between these two.

Soobin ran his hands through my hair like he had been doing since the past half hour. I had almost fallen asleep if it wasn't for Taehyun scratching my underfoot every now and then.

"I've assigned bodyguards to search the area. We should get a report of what's happening by tomorrow morning." Yeonjun said walking into the living room which he had left earlier to make a call. I pressed the cold pack onto my skin soothing it down from the harsh grip of the stalker or whatever on my hand.

"Should we move to the vacation house? I don't think anyone will suspect us there." Beomgyu reasoned while I was beginning to get drowsy.

"We'll consider it after the report." Yeonjun replied but it was only a mumble to my ears for I had already fallen asleep.
