the stranger continued walking up to you. frozen, you didn't know what to do.
"come on, don't be scared we won't hurt you."
"we?" you asked with a panicked tone.
you could move, at all. panicking you dropped your phone you tried calling someone with.
"oh? calling someone are we now?"
'beidou' could be read on your screen. you still have to page open, so you just randomly pressed the call button while he looked back.
"beidou? wouldn't want you getting help, now do we boys?"
"no sir"
"not at all"
that's when the others came out, causing you to take a step back. the phone was still on the floor, somehow still ringing beidou.
a faint 'hello? y/n?'
the panicked look on the men's faces could be seen after they noticed beidou had picked up.
"beidou?"
"tell her it was a butt dial, go on. you don't want to get hurt now do you?" the man whispered to you.
"heh-e, sorry. i-it was a butt dial."
"oh um, okay? actually, i have something to ask you. do you mind if i do so?"
"no! n-not at all, go ahead."
"you sound a bit jumpy are you okay?"
you then remembered when childe came to visit your office he talked about a safe word. a word to use when in trouble. beidou was there that day, doing other things, but was in the same room.
'please, oh god. remember..'
"y-yep, i just hit my hand on the wardrobe. no worries!"
"on that annoying one, you and childe were talking about?"
'yes! yes, thank god!'
"y-yeah, it was that one. you heard me and childe talking about it?" you asked trying to drag the conversation longer. one of the men signalled you to hurry up.
