" Lets go before the police comes," Taeyoung instructed, turning his back on the destruction.
Chaeyoung dragged her feet back, head low as her eyes remained fixated on the ground. Her tears fell onto the ground after every step she took.
" Don't promise something you can't keep," she mumbled angrily, scolding the boy even though he wasn't there.
They were about to hop into their respective cars when suddenly a loud explosion was heard again.
All their heads shot back, turning to the destruction again almost instantaneously, wondering whether they heard it right or not.
" J-Jaemin?" Chaeyoung stuttered before getting to her feet and running towards the explosion.
" Chaeyoung wait! It might be dangerous!" Jeno yelled, running after the girl as she sped towards the smoke.
" Jaemin!" She called out once she reached the spot, climbing up the debris to check from a better spot until she got pushed away by the familiar black haired boy.
The two dropped down on the ground together before another explosion occurred behind them, almost flying them across the ground.
" Stop getting into near death situations because of me, angel," Jaemin softly whispered, weakly smiling at the girl as his eyes threatened to close.
Chaeyoung got off from the top of the boy, not wanting to hurt him anymore. Her eyes scanned him worriedly, checking to see whether he was okay or not.
The rest of the gang sprinted towards their direction, Jungwoo immediately checking for his pulse. Jaemin coughed and wheezed, his lungs filled with the toxic air from the grenade.
" How do you feel?" Taeyong asked once the boy stopped coughing.
" I'm fine," he muttered, sitting up to prove the fact but found it harder and more straining than usual. Jungwoo immediately shook his head, gently pressing on Jaemin's shoulders to get him to lie back down.
" I won't recommend that if you don't want to be bed ridden for a few weeks," Jungwoo warned.
The weak boy felt his eyes prevailing, wanting to close but he forced them to remain open. " It's okay just sleep, you need energy anyways," Jungwoo said, taking some ointment to disinfect his wound before bandaging it.
" Just take care of Chaeyoung for me okay?" Jaemin mumbled as he grabbed Jeno's wrist.
" You're the one hurt not me!" Chaeyoung scoffed, watching as the boy winced. " Take care of yourself, please," she begged as she looked at the boy.
Jaemin smiled slightly as he saw her panicked expression before his eyes closed.
Jungwoo checked his pulse one last time before instructing some to get the stretcher and others to help carry the boy carefully.
" How did he manage to survive that though," Jeno questioned as he looked at Haechan who only grinned to him, glad that his member slash friend was still alive.
" He is nct's ace, remember?"

Their medics had helped to remove the glass pieces from the boy's wound, cleaning the blood off before wrapping the wound with a new set of bandage.
Jaemin remained deep asleep, an obvious effect from the lack of sleep he had gotten from before, his energy at its lowest.
And now it was Chaeyoung's turn to not sleep, sitting beside the boy, her hand grazing above his as she hesitated to intertwine them. It had already been three days, and the boy still stayed deep in his slumber.
She admired the boy's angelic features, from his sharp jawline that could cut a watermelon to his pretty pink lips. She hadn't realise that she was staring until the boy opened an eye making her flinch.
" Continue staring, I won't disturb," Jaemin teasingly spoke, raising his unwounded arm to poke her reddened cheeks.
" Oh shut up," she whined, slapping his hand away.
" Ouch," Jaemin whimpered, pretending like he was in pain making the girl panic.
" Oh shit, i'm so sorry, where does it hurt?" she rambled as she grabbed his hand and squinted her eyes, inspecting it.
" It hurts here," Jaemin said, pulling his hand away and pointing towards the left side of his chest, at his heart. " Cause you slapped my hand away," he pouted cutely.
Chaeyoung rolled her eyes, amused by the boy's sudden lack of coldness. " Did being in a bombing zone led you to turn over a new leave and not be cold?" she muttered.
" Nope! I just figured that I have been treating my angel badly, and she doesn't deserve that!" the boy cutely exclaimed, making the girl chuckle at his cuteness.
